Sumario:Peer evaluation, in which students assess their peers' work, promotes personal and professional skills in education. However, there is a lack of tools to analyze beliefs about this practice in Spain. The Beliefs about Peer Feedback Questionnaire (BPFQ) assesses attitudes and beliefs in university students with good psychometric properties. This study adapts the questionnaire to Spanish and examines its psychometric properties, as well as the differences between knowledge fields. A total of 607 students from the University of Alicante participated in this instrumental study. The results substantiated the four-dimensional structure and a bifactor model, consisting of both the general factor and the four subscales, and the internal consistency of the questionnaire in Spanish. Students from Education and Science showed greater acceptance of peer evaluation than students from Social and Legal Sciences. The BPFQ is a valid and reliable questionnaire for assessing student beliefs about peer review, being useful for evaluating the introduction of new peer review systems at the university.
