This study reports the development of a test to assess the adjustment of students in the family, school and social environment, administered to a group of 440 elementary school students. The factorial analysis showed three factors, but mixing the items of the three environments. The items elimination was done using three combined criteria: frequency more than 85% in one answer, the internal consistency by Cronbach’s alpha and factorial loading. Twenty items were studied as the second version of the test. The factorial analysis showed three factors and differentiated the three environments. The internal consistency and reliability coefficients are acceptable.
