Objectives: to assess the psychometric properties of the Latino Students Patient Safety Questionnaire, Brazilian version. Methods: a methodological study, carried out between April 2020 and January 2021, with 218 nursing and medicine students. Structural and discriminant construct validity were assessed by confirmatory factor analysis and cross factor loadings. Reliability was verified by McDonald’s omega, average variance extracted, composite reliability, and item-total correlation. Results: the final model reproduced the original structure of 21 items, distributed in five dimensions, requiring the exclusion of one item. Acceptable fit indexes were obtained (x2/gl=2.325; CFI=0.99; TLI=0.98; RMSEA=0.054). Discriminant validity was confirmed. Reliability indicators were adequate, except McDonald’s omega, in one factor (0.68), and average variance extracted, in two factors (0.41; 0.47). Conclusions: the instrument demonstrated evidence of internal validity and satisfactory reliability among nursing and medical students.
