Abstract: This study aims to adapt and validate the Classroom Motivational Climate Questionnaire and Attribution of Motivational Changes to the Teacher Questionnaire, for their administration in Higher Education and thus having adequate instruments to assess motivational climate and student preferences in this educational level. Data from 624 university students were analyzed through a Confirmatory Factor Analysis based on the original models proposed for each questionnaire. Then, a cross-validation analysis was performed for each questionnaire between two random sub-samples. Subsequently, a Path Analysis was conducted on both instruments to measure predictive validity on performance. A multigroup analysis was also conducted with two categories of students: those in their initial studies (basic) and those in practice-oriented studies (in-depth). The results confirm the factor structure for both questionnaires with configurations slightly different from those found in previous studies with high school samples. The Classroom Motivational Climate Questionnaire was found to influence performance and to identify differences in student's motivational profile depending to the year of their study.
