COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemics changed social dynamics in several aspects, the introduction of containment measures to ensure social distancing was one of these changes, it made education institutions adopt the remote learning system. In order to understand the impact on the leaning process, this paper aims at devising and developing a measurement instrument to quantify students’ perception regarding the adaptation to the remote education provided by the Federal University of Amazonas – UFRA, over classroom-based learning, which was adopted previously to the COVID-19 context, that being the latent trait to be measured. For this purpose, theoretical procedures from the Construction Model for Psychological Tests and Measures and the psychological evaluation incorporated multiple perspectives. To validate the content, the study set three phases: 1) initial construction of the measurement instrument and literature review;2) establishment of student focus groups;3) judge’s analyses to outline factors and potential items. Finally, the instrument presented to the content validity index an average acceptance of 94.16% per item, and acceptance values of over 93.43% to factors and domains.
