AB This study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of a questionnaire designed to evaluate veterinary students’ satisfaction and selfconfidence within the realm of high-fidelity clinical simulation for bovine reproductive diagnostic techniques. The reliability analysis revealed a robust Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient of .753 for the entire questionnaire, indicating a high level of internal consistency. A confirmatory factor analysis supported a bifactorial model, affirming appropriate factorial loadings for all items. The model’s fit indices demonstrated strong alignment, suggesting the questionnaire’s adeptness in accurately capturing students’ experiences. The evaluation of satisfaction and self-confidence levels unveiled predominantly positive perceptions overall, albeit with discernible reservations, particularly regarding specific diagnostic techniques. Despite limitations, such as the utilization of a single-site sample, this study establishes the questionnaire’s validity and reliability in the context of simulator-based learning. Thus, these preliminary results about students’ confidence underscore the pivotal role of clinical simulation in bolstering students’ skills.
