description The aim of this study was to develop and validate a scale of benefits of the Cooperative Learning (SBCL) given the exiguity of instruments that evaluate these outputs of the method. The study resorted to a convenience sample comprised of 162 students, males and females, aged between 11 and 18 years. The final instrument has 23 items in a two-dimensional factor structure: psychological and academic benefits and social benefits. The results indicate that the SBCL present good psychometric properties (construct and discriminant validity and reliability). The results are discussed in light of the model of cooperative learning.
