%X this paper presents preliminary findings regarding the adaptation and validation of two instruments designed to measure academic experiences (centred on satisfaction) and academic involvement in university students. previous research has shown that academic experience and involvement are strongly correlated with student drop-out rates. for the present study, the two surveys were administered to 261 students at the university of concepci車n, chile, on the los 芍ngeles campus. both instruments showed suitable levels of reliability and internal consistency on the subscales. furthermore, the correlation coefficients obtained when comparing dimensions on each survey were acceptable for the constructs being evaluated. these findings allow for a preliminary validation of the two questionnaires included in the study.
