نبذة مختصرة : Objective: to create and validate a cognitive assessment Quiz about Spotted Fever, targeted at evaluating what students living in and/or traveling to risk cities know about the disease. Methods: a methodological study developed in three stages: creation of the Quiz; face and content validation with nine judges, with analysis performed by calculating the Content Validity Index, with a cutoff value of 0.80; and semantic validation, following the DISABKIDS® methodology with 12 students from professional technical courses, with data evaluation performed by means of descriptive statistics, using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program. Results: the validation process was subdivided into two stages: face and content validation by professionals in the Biology and Education areas, and semantic validation by students attending professional courses. The Quiz was prepared and applied and the results showed a Content Validity Index above 0.80 for all the variables analyzed. In the semantic validation, the Quiz was considered as easy to understand and there were no difficulties filling it in. Conclusion: the Quiz created was validated in terms of face, content and semantics, having achieved satisfactory agreement, which guarantees that it is an adequate instrument for the evaluation process on the theme investigated. With this, the expectation is to contribute to disseminating knowledge about the identification of risk and health prevention factors related to Spotted fever.
