The objective of this study consisted in the design and validation of an instrument that contributes to update and optimize the application of the Healthy University and Tutoring programs of the Universidad Autónoma de Occidente (UAdeO), since there was no methodological tool that showed reliable psychometric properties and easy application for students. One of the main objectives of these programs is to promote the development of self-esteem in students as part of institutional educational actions. To achieve greater efficiency of the questionnaire, the scales of School Environment, Family Environment, and Social Skills were selected to be correlated with that of Self-Esteem. A quantitative methodology and a descriptive-correlational design were used. Thus, the application of a cross-sectional questionnaire was carried out, which showed that it has internal consistency in each of the dimensions that make up the scales of the instrument. The sample consisted of 520 students from the 16 different careers at UAdeO, of which 51.4% were female and 48.6% male. The age of the students ranged from 17 to 34 years old. The results indicate that the instruments used in the study have high reliability and validity, as well as a high level of self-esteem development when correlated with psychosocial factors.
