Pregnancy interruption policies are distinguished by orienting opinions, decisions and behaviors towards the individual request for abortion, even when the literature indicates that the choice of partner is defined by the group closest to the person, the strategies of government seem to focus on the personal motives of those requesting the service. The objective of this work was to establish the cognitive and behavioral dimensions of the request for termination of pregnancy. A psychometric, transversal and correlational work was carried out with a sample of 100 students from a public university selected for their internships and professional service in public health institutions. The results show a reduction to two factors of the three reported in the literature. The reduction to two factors and six indicators is recommended in order to adjust the instrument to the sample and its scenario of expectations of termination of pregnancy.
