The dimensions of the instrument were created on the basis of the literature in fighting and games. The content validation process was performed by five expert judges in the field. Aiken’s V was used to quantify concordance between experts. In addition, the QELJ was tested with 17 physical education teacher in two moments, with an interval of 14 days between them. NVivo 9.2 software was used for content analyses on participants’ answers. The results showed high positive agreement rates among the evaluators, all above 0.80. The pilot study also presented good reliability results in the analysis of participants’ responses in the two moments (97% for closed questions, 82% for open questions). It can be concluded that the QELJ proved to be a valid and useful tool to improve the understanding of the teaching of fighting in school physical education, although other psychometric evaluations of the instrument should be carried out in the future.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Revista de Artes Marciales Asiáticas}, author={Pereira, Marcos Paulo Vaz De Campos and Mota, Íris Dantas da and Lacerda, Elias Barboza and Farias, Gelcemar Oliveira}, year={2020}, month={Jan.}, pages={56–66} }
