Introduction: Nursing education has been incorporating different teaching and learning methodologies to achieve the development of competencies for nurses. Clinical simulation is a strategy that allows the development of these tools and has been incorporated into the undergraduate and postgraduate training curricula. In this sense, a broad evaluation of the insertion of these methodologies is necessary. Aim: To assess the psychometric properties of the quality and satisfaction survey of clinical simulation and brief scale perception of the quality of the objective structured clinical examination in Chilean nursing students. Methods: A cross-sectional study with a self-administrated survey was applied in a convenience sample of 96 Chilean nursing students. Through internal consistence was determined the reliability of the instruments. Validities were established by content and construct. To compare the means, one-way analyses of variance with post hoc Tukey HSD were performed. Results: The quality and satisfaction survey of clinical simulation entire scale obtained a Cronbach's alpha of 0.942, and the Corrected Item-Total Correlations ranged from 0.356 to 0.817. The brief scale of perception of the quality of objective structured clinical examination entire scale obtained a Cronbach's alpha of 0.810, and the Corrected Item-Total Correlations ranged from 0.325 to 0.701. No significant statistical differences between groups were found. Conclusions: The quality and satisfaction survey of clinical simulation and brief scale of perception of the quality of objective structured clinical examination demonstrated sound psychometric properties for assessing the perception of the quality and satisfaction about clinical simulation and perception of the quality of objective structured clinical examination, each one. Both in Chilean nursing students.
