RESUMEN: La formación y experiencias positivas previas son fundamentales para una adecuada percepción de competencia, confianza y actitud positiva para la inclusión de alumnos con discapacidad en educación física. Este trabajo analiza la fiabilidad de una escala aplicada al contexto español para evaluar las creencias de autoeficacia para atender a alumnos con discapacidad intelectual, física y visual, mostrando excelentes valores de fiabilidad y consistencia interna la Escala de Autoeficacia en Profesores de Educación Física hacia Alumnos con Discapacidad (EA-PEF-AD). Los 102 profesores que participaron en el estudio mostraron además niveles de autoeficacia más altos (p<0.001) a medida que habían tenido formación y experiencias profesionales previas. Los resultados del presente trabajo confirmarían la idoneidad de llevar a cabo programas formativos para profesores de educación física en activo, preferiblemente con contacto con personas con discapacidad. Palabras clave: enseñanza, competencia, actitud. Self-efficacy of Physical Education teachers toward inclusion of students with disabilities and regarding their previous training and experiences ABSTRACT: Previous training and past positive experiences are key factors to develop an adequate self-competence, self-confidence and positive attitudes toward inclusion of students with disabilities into physical education. This study analyses the reliability of a Spanish version of the Self-Efficacy Scale for Physical Education Teacher Education Majors towards Children with Disabilities (SE-PETE-D). One-hundred and two physical education professors participated in this study. Results indicated that professors scored higher on self-efficacy (p<0.001) if they received previous training in adapted physical education or they had previous professional experiences on this regard. Our results recommend providing training opportunities for physical educators who are currently working in schools, with the involvement of persons with disabilities.
