Abstract
This presentation aims to present the validation procedures (content and face validity) of an original scientific literacy measurement instrument for students in the last grade of primary school, as well as the initial identification of scientific literacy levels of 260 students who participated in a relevant pilot study. The results of the validation procedures ensure face and content validity and classify students into three different levels of scientific literacy.
