Resum

Computational thinking is being assessed, in most approaches, through elements of programming. From here, an evaluation approach is promoted from the resolution of complex problems, as this thinking is used as a problem-solving strategy. This article validates the theoretical construct of an assessment instrument to measure computational thinking through complex problem solving, with a test battery composed of 15 items. First, the principles used for the design are described, principles based on the multiple complex systems assessment approach and the PISA framework used in 2012. Subsequently, the proposed 2-factor theoretical model is discussed: problem representation and problem resolution, and several additional models with adjustments from the theoretical model. It is determined that the best fitting model is the 2-factor model, coinciding with the theoretical proposal. Finally, analyses are made, on the one hand of the suitability of the items to each factor, thus confirming the suitability of the items, and on the other hand, the correlation between factors, obtaining a 0.969. It is concluded that the instrument has a very high degree of validity, so that it is suitable for measuring computational thinking through problem solving.
