Résumé
Cet article présente les résultats d’une étude ayant pour objectif l’élaboration et la validation d’une échelle de mesure de la professionnalisation des étudiants et étudiantes universitaires en sciences de la santé. Des éléments de preuve de contenu, de processus de réponse et de structure interne de cette échelle ont été apportés au fil de l’étude, entre autres grâce à une collecte de données auprès de 561 étudiants et étudiantes de premier et deuxième cycles provenant de quatre universités québécoises. Les analyses factorielles exploratoires appuient une structure interne à quatre facteurs, avec une très bonne cohérence interne. Un quatrième facteur (valorisation de la profession) s’ajoute aux trois facteurs (compétences, identité et culture professionnelles) énoncés dans le cadre conceptuel initial. Les analyses factorielles confirmatoires confirment cette structure ainsi que la relation entre ces quatre facteurs de premier ordre et un unique facteur de professionnalisation de second ordre. Cette échelle constitue un instrument robuste permettant d’étudier la professionnalisation des étudiants et étudiantes aux différentes étapes de leur formation en sciences de la santé.

Abstract
This article presents the results of a study aimed at constructing and validating a scale for measuring the professionalization of health sciences students. Evidence of the content, response process, and internal structure of the scale was provided throughout the study, including data collection from 561 undergraduate and graduate students from four Quebec universities. The results of an exploratory factor analysis indicated a very good internal consistency and support for a simple four-factor structure. Thus, a fourth factor (valuing the profession) was added to the three factors (professional skills, identity, and culture) set out in an initial conceptual framework. The results of a confirmatory factor analysis revealed that these four first-order factors were related to a single second-order factor of professionalization. This scale provides a robust instrument that can be used for studying the professionalization of students at different phases of their educational journey.

Resumo
Este artigo apresenta os resultados de um estudo que teve como objetivo a elaboração e a validação de uma escala para medir a profissionalização de estudantes universitários em ciências da saúde. Os elementos de prova de conteúdo, do processo de resposta e da estrutura interna desta nova escala foram fornecidos ao longo do estudo, entre outros, por meio da recolha de dados de 561 estudantes do primeiro e segundo ciclos de quatro universidades do Quebec. As análises fatoriais exploratórias suportam uma estrutura interna de quatro fatores, com uma coerência interna muito boa. Assim, um quarto fator (valorização da profissão) junta-se aos três fatores (competências, identidade e cultura profissionais) estabelecidos no quadro concetual inicial. As análises fatoriais confirmatórias também sustentam esta estrutura, bem como a relação entre estes quatro fatores de primeira ordem e um único fator de profissionalização de segunda ordem. Esta escala é um instrumento robusto que permite estudar a profissionalização dos estudantes nas diferentes fases do seu percurso de formação em ciências da saúde.
