Abstract
The VESS (Meaningful Life with Balance and Wisdom) model is considered to be a learning method based on the construction of knowledge through critical and visible thinking, with a neuroeducational base. The aim of the present work is to conduct a psychometric study of a measurement scale about the learning of the VESS model created for teachers-in-training. This article presents two survey-based descriptive studies conducted at the University of Cordoba (Spain). The data were subjected to descriptive, correlational, reliability and validity analysis through exploratory and confirmatory analyses, respectively. It is an instrument with high goodness-of-fit indices and suitable validity and reliability values. This instrument is applicable to similar study contexts.

The global pandemic situation we are currently living in due to a coronavirus has compelled numerous governments to decree a state of alarm to decrease the propagation of the virus
As such, is the case that, from 14 March 2020, schools had to close their doors and teachers had to perform their teaching duties from home. This situation has meant that society in general, and the education community in particular, have had to organize and re-invent themselves based on the principle of autonomy of the centers [2], which for the teachers has been a great challenge and signified a period for thinking, re-organizing and re-defining education
Once the criteria were verified, the exploratory factorial analysis (EFA) was applied to the original version of the questionnaire, with a total of three factors to be extracted
Summary
The global pandemic situation we are currently living in due to a coronavirus has compelled numerous governments to decree a state of alarm to decrease the propagation of the virus. We are facing high rates of infection due to this new coronavirus, which was named Covid-19 by the World Health Organization (WHO) [1]. This state of alarm and subsequent confinement measures have resulted in the paralysis of every social and economic activity in the world, to a greater or lesser degree. As such, is the case that, from 14 March 2020, schools had to close their doors and teachers had to perform their teaching duties from home This situation has meant that society in general, and the education community in particular, have had to organize and re-invent themselves based on the principle of autonomy of the centers [2], which for the teachers has been a great challenge and signified a period for thinking, re-organizing and re-defining education
