“…Suriá-Martínez and his team (Suriá Martínez, Ordóñez Rubio, & Martínez Maciá, 2015) were one of the first groups in Spain to address this gap in the scientific literature, developing and validating a 10-item scale that analyzed opinions on happiness, sexuality or friendship of people with disabilities. This trend was continued in Spanish-speaking South American countries, where the Questionnaire on Attitudes towards Disability in Higher Education (QAD-HE) (Fuentes, Pérez-Padilla, De La Fuente, & Aranda, 2022) was developed and validated, achieving excellent validation values. In this way, the possibility was opened to explore which are the barriers and facilitators of the university context for the inclusion of people with disabilities.…”

The right to inclusive education is one that has drawn the attention of public organizations, scholars, and academics worldwide. Students' beliefs and perceptions are a fundamental axis to know the state of the classrooms based on this ethical principle, allowing teaching professionals to promote improvement strategies and programs. This study aims to explore the reliability and factorial structure of the questionnaire "The Attitudes towards Inclusion of Students with Disabilities in Physical Education" (AISDPE) in students belonging to the secondary and baccalaureate educational stages. The sample consisted in 889 students who participated 2 times a week in physical education classes. Reliability tests, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis were done. Then, a factor structure with two dimension (cognitive perception and predisposition to action) and 15 items was extracted, showing excellent values for the various selected goodness-of-fit indices. Additionally, a good reliability (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.77–0.79) was attained. The AISDPE might therefore be regarded as a credible and trustworthy measure to examine physical education pupils’ assessments of their attitudes towards inclusive instruction in order to improve social well-being and school health in the classroom.

“…Además, los autores advierten sobre la necesidad de articular instrumentos actualizados y validados con muestras españolas. Los cambios en las actitudes sociales demandan una actualización de estos instrumentos, lo que incluye ciertos esfuerzos para adaptar cultural y lingüísticamente el contenido de los cuestionarios en aras de la uniformidad de significados (Fuentes et al, 2022).…”

A medida que aumenta el interés social por mejorar la formación y las actitudes del futuro profesorado de educación secundaria hacia el alumnado con discapacidad, se necesitan instrumentos que satisfagan estas necesidades y sirvan para evaluar su eficacia. El objetivo del trabajo tiene como propósito examinar las características psicométricas de la Escala de Actitud hacia las Personas con Discapacidad (EAPD) desarrollada por Arias et al. (2016). Se ha realizado una modelización de ecuaciones estructurales basada en covarianzas, utilizando el método de estimación de mínimos cuadrados ponderados con chi-cuadrado ajustado por media y varianza y el coeficiente omega ordinal para estimar la consistencia interna. La muestra está compuesta por 400 estudiantes del Máster Universitario en Profesor de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria y Bachillerato, Formación Profesional y Enseñanza de Idiomas (MUFPS) de distintas universidades españolas. El análisis de la EAPD ha mostrado que dicha escala puedes ser interpretada por tres dimensiones: (a) Relaciones sociales y personales con las personas con discapacidad-RS, (b) Vida normalizada-VN y (c) Programas de intervención-PI. Sin embargo, este estudio presenta como hallazgo una estructura de segundo orden que permite concluir la interpretación de esta escala de manera conjunta, siendo este último un hallazgo importante en el ámbito educativo.
