Abstract

In this article, we present data concerning the attitudes towards disability of students in Higher Education (HE) at a Spanish university. This research is part of a wider project designed to understand these attitudes at other Spanish universities and Brazilian and Portuguese Universities. The total sample was composed of 609 students (Mean age: 24.41; SD: 9.84), including undergraduates (85.7%) and postgraduates (14.3%) from different faculties at the University of Barcelona. Seventy-seven percent of the sample were women, and 6.1% had some disability. The first part of the instrument used collects sociodemographic information. The second part contains 43 statements grouped in three blocks: 17 relating to the biological model of disability, 15 to the social model, and 11 to the metaphysical perspective. The results showed the predominance of agreement with the social and biological conceptions of disability. Moreover, significant differences were found among the students' attitudes related to their year of study, age, faculty, and absence of disability. The results obtained represent a first step regarding the need to voice students with a disability in the processes required for their social inclusion. Keywords: attitudes towards disability, Higher Education, educational inclusion, models of disability

高等教育中对残疾的态度

在这篇文章中，我们提供了关于西班牙一所大学高等教育(HE)学生对残疾的态度的数据。这项研究是一个更广泛的项目的一部分，该项目旨在了解其他西班牙大学、巴西和葡萄牙大学的这些态度。总样本由609名学生组成(平均年龄24.41岁;SD: 9.84)，包括来自巴塞罗那大学不同院系的本科生(85.7%)和研究生(14.3%)。77%的样本是女性，6.1%的样本有某种残疾。所使用的工具的第一部分收集社会人口统计信息。第二部分包含43个陈述，分为三个部分:17个关于残疾的生物学模型，15个关于社会模型，11个关于形而上学的观点。结果显示，与残疾的社会和生物学概念的一致占主导地位。此外，学生的态度在年级、年龄、教师、有无残疾等方面存在显著差异。所获得的结果表明，有必要在残疾学生融入社会的过程中为他们发声，这是迈出了第一步。关键词:残疾态度;高等教育;教育全纳
