“…As it was predictable after analysing the study by Tárraga et al 2013, due to its revision of related literature and results, the students who opted for specialisation in Special Needs Education showed more adequate attitudes towards inclusion and focus on SNE. Concerning "contact", differently from other studies (Clavijo, 2016;Mendoza, 2015) and in line with others (Crowson & Brandes, 2014;Macías, 2016), it was not very determining. Finally, "age" and "students with SEN" can't be considered as influential variables, although their sample sizes have not been large enough.…”

“…In this sense, the quality of the contact is basic, since superficial contact does not allow deep relationships to be established. Therefore, positive attitudes increase (Mellado et al, 2017) to the extent that both quality and quantity are accounted for when determining contact (Crowson and Brandes, 2014;Gonzalez et al, 2015). Aside from this, when we consider the relationship between age and attitudes toward inclusion, a low but significant positive correlation was observed with the dimensions of the SACIE-R.…”

“…Moreover, there are other socials factors (Irby and Clough, 2015), such as the culture (Armstrong et al, 2016), policy, and practices in schools; i.e., the implementation of inclusion in schools, resources and their distribution, the support of school administration and teachers themselves, and the organizational framework (teacher role or supports available in the classroom) (Galović et al, 2014;Schmidt and Vrhovnik, 2015). In addition, such attitudes may also be affected by the contact that individuals have had with people with special needs (Crowson and Brandes, 2014;Gonzalez et al, 2015). However, few studies have analyzed the differences in attitudes toward the inclusion of teachers and teacher training students as a function of these type of variables.…”

“…Aun así, no se pudo confirmar una de las predicciones psicosociales de la hipótesis del contacto: la referida a la asociación positiva de la duración de la experiencia con las actitudes. Por una parte, no siempre se ha observado una relación directa entre contacto y actitudes en profesorado en formación (Crowson y Brandes, 2014), pero además en nuestro estudio se podría suponer la operatividad de un efecto techo: la inmensa mayoría de los participantes se agruparon en la parte alta de la escala de medida de las actitudes, lo que dificultó el hallazgo de diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los niveles de la variable de agrupamiento. Este hecho también habría incidido en el tamaño reducido de las correlaciones y coeficientes de regresión que asociaron la existencia de experiencia a las actitudes, pero habría afectado más a la duración de la experiencia previa a causa del menor tamaño muestral, con la consiguiente mayor dificultad para alcanzar significación estadística.…”
