Resumen

El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar la actitud hacia la inclusión educativa de los futuros docentes. Doscientos setenta y cuatro estudiantes del Grado de Magisterio de Infantil y Primaria y del Máster de Educación Especial de la Universitat de València cumplimentaron una adaptación de la escala ORI (Opinions Relative to Integration of Students with Disabilities Scale). Se analizó la fiabilidad y estructura factorial del cuestionario. Se comparó la puntuación en la escala entre los estudiantes de grado y de máster; entre los estudiantes de Grado de Magisterio de Educación Infantil y el de Educación Primaria; y entre los estudiantes de grado antes y después de cursar la asignatura Necesidades Educativas Especiales. Todos los estudiantes mostraron una actitud favorable hacia la inclusión educativa. La actitud fue mejor en los estudiantes de la titulación de Educación Infantil que en los de Primaria. Existió una mejora significativa en la actitud de los estudiantes de Grado tras cursar la materia �Necesidades Educativas Especiales�. La actitud fue significativamente más favorable en los alumnos de Máster que en los alumnos de Grado. Los veinticinco ítems originales de la escala ORI se redujeron a veintitrés en nuestra adaptación, y los cuatro factores iniciales se incrementaron a cinco.
