Resumen:
The main objective of the thesis was the obtaining of a valid instrument, and with a conceptual consistency, that evaluated the construction of the cultural competition. Based on the review of the different theoretical models and the different existing instruments, the Cultural Competence Assessment scale was selected by authors Schim and Doorenbos (2003). The analysis of the psychometric structure, the dimensionality and the categorization of the scores go, being some of the specific objectives related to the adaptation and validation of the scale. The study was developed in three phases: in the first one, the Cultural Competence Assessment scale was translated and adapted to Spanish; In the second, the scale was validated to health professionals from a psychometric study; and the third part, a cross-sectional study with ex-post facto design of cultural competence was carried out in a representative sample of nursing professionals from the province of Tarragona. This last part, aims to analyze the applicability of the scale, as well as know the development of the cultural competence of this sample, which will serve to detect the training needs. the results obtained, we can conclude that the CCA-S represents a valid instrument for evaluating cultural competence. In this study I was able to verify its usefulness in the evaluation of cultural competence in a representative sample of nursing professionals. In addition, it has been useful in describing the elements that intervene in the development of cultural competence such as an exhibition on cultural diversity, a greater cultural knowledge derived from prior education, a cultural desire and a coherence of efficiency in competition cultural However, based on the results obtained and the relationships established between the different variables, future lines of research are proposed to work and foster cultural competence through participatory action research strategies.
