Physical Education (PE) seems, a priori, as a suitable area to work educational interventions to facilitate the inclusion of students with disabilities, being peer´s attitudes determinant in this process. This study presents the validity and reliability analysis of the “Children Attitude Integrated Physical Education-Revised (CAIPE-R)” questionnaire (Block, 1995) to the Spanish educational context. For this purpose, a sample of 222 PE´s students from high school in Madrid was studied, composed of 117 men and 105 women, aged between 12 and 18 years (M=14.07; SD=1.31). The results showed adequate questionnaire reliability and construct validity, with a good fit to the model. The adapted scale showed a reduction to 10 items, obtaining a general internal consistency above 0.70, except for items 2 and 8 of the general scale and item 9 of the specific scale. The study concluded that this instrument has adequate validity and reliability to detect children´s attitudes towards inclusion of peers with disability in PE in the Spanish context. © Psychology, Society, & Education, 2017.
