Objective: to determining the intelligibility of the indicators, constitutive and operational definitions of nursing behavior result of fall prevention by nurses in hospital units. Method: methodological research in adaptation to the instructions Hoskins validation model (1989), in order to performing the analysis of the intelligibility of the indicators, constitutive and operational definitions of nursing results NOC behavior of fall prevention. The instrument was therefore subjected to a sieve of nurses in a public teaching hospital of the health of the city of Natal/RN at the discretion of intelligibility chosen Psychometrics. Results: all indicators achieved or exceeded the concordance index of 0,90, except for one indicator, because the concordance was 0,58 and p < 0,05 as a result of the binomial test. It means therefore that this indicator needs to be revised. The other indicators with p values < 0,05 were obtained concordance index between 0,90 and above experts so we were admitted to the final version. Conclusions: it can be concluded that the indicators, the constitutive definitions and the definitions/ operational magnitudes for the result of nursing NOC falls prevention behavior obtained agreement rate statistically higher than 0,90. Considered by the target population, therefore, great intelligibility, similar to that shown in the scientific literature and able to measure the construct behavior prevention of falls in the hospital. From this perspective this study semantically validated a Prevention of falls in order to support nurse, assistant in the development of effective preventive activities, based on an instrument of scientific evidence.
