What about this?

rq = (Document.new xmlSent).root
if rq.elements.size == 1 then     
  object['type'] = rq.attributes['type']
  object['value'] = rq.attributes['value']
  object['criteria'] = {}
  rq.elements['criteria'].each_element do |element|
    object['criteria'][element.name] = element.text
  end
end
