| description | Due to the relevance in the understanding of the role of attitudes towards people with disability in the inclusive education process, numerous psychometric tools have been developed. In the Spanish-speaking context, the Scale of Attitudes towards People with Disabilities (SAPD) stands out. However, its validity has not been demonstrated yet on the Mexican population. For this reason, this work aims at evaluating the validity evidence of the SAPD and proposing a modified version in a sample of 1934 higher educationstudents from Sonora, Mexico. An exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, as well as a Rasch and invariance analysis were carried out. Results show that the modified version has appropriate psychometric properties and a bifactorial structure with egalitarian and discriminatory attitudes about disability. |

Debido a la relevancia que supone entender el papel que juega la actitud hacia las personas con discapacidad en el proceso de inclusión educativa, se han elaborado numerosos instrumentos de medición. En el contexto hispano-parlante, se destaca la Escala de Actitudes hacia las Personas con Discapacidad (EAPD). Sin embargo, esta escala no ha sido validada en México. Por lo tanto, el objetivo del presente trabajo es evaluar la evidencia de validez de la EAPD, así como proponer una versión modificada del instrumento en una muestra de 1934 estudiantes universitarios del estado de Sonora, México. Para ello se llevaron a cabo un análisis Rasch, un análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio, y uno de invarianza entre sexos. Los resultados muestran que la escala modificada cuenta con propiedades psicométricas adecuadas y se divide en una estructura bifactorial con actitudes igualitarias y discriminatorias sobre la discapacidad.
