In this instance it appears as though the instrument is statistical.
Chris Maddux Sep 1, 2014:
cut off point It seems to be talking about the instrument itself not the data collected.

cutoff point

For example "Study power was fixed as 80 % with 5 % cutoff point (p < 0.05) for statistical significance" or "the cutoff point for the creatine kinase (CK)"

Here, instrumento, Universidad ... are experimental factors - it depends on the context what instrumento means - it could e.g. be an "instrumento financiero"
