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-Bχ2 (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.
Several studies confirm the relevance of the mediating effect of attitudes in the construction of historical knowledge. However, despite this evidence, a literature review indicates the existence of a single instrument for measuring attitudes toward History, validated through exploratory approaches in English-speaking contexts. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to design and validate, through confirmatory techniques, a more completed scale for its use in Spanish-speaking contexts. Data were collected from 430 students, with an average age of 16.29 (SD = 1.02) years. The results confirmed that the 14-item structure showed a good fit to the data (S-Bχ2 (74, N = 430) = 215.54, p < .001; RMSEA [90% CI] = .068 [.058-.079]; NNFI = .94; CFI = .95). Attitudes toward History is a twocomponent construct, comprising three underlying factors: perceived usefulness and utility, interest for historical knowledge and conservative beliefs.
