Resumen

Diversas investigaciones constatan la importancia del efecto mediador de las actitudes en la construcción del saber histórico. Sin embargo, pese a dicha constatación, la revisión de la literatura indica la existencia de un único instrumento para la medición del constructo actitudes hacia la historia, validado con técnicas exploratorias en contexto anglosajón. La presente investigación tiene por objetivo diseñar y validar, mediante técnicas confirmatorias, una escala más completa para su empleo en un contexto de habla hispana. La muestra estuvo constituida por 430 estudiantes, con una edad media de 16.29 (DE = 1.02) años. Los resultados confirmaron que la estructura, de 14 ítems, arrojó un buen ajuste de modelo (S-B?2 (74, N = 430) = 215.54, p < .001; RMSEA [90% IC] = .068 [.058 - .079]; NNFI = .94; CFI = .95). La variable actitudes hacia la historia resulta un constructo de dos componentes, uno de primer orden y otro de segundo, que comprenden un total de tres factores: utilidad e importancia percibida, interés hacia el aprendizaje histórico y creencias conservadoras.
