Abstract

The presence of students with disabilities in university classrooms is increasingly frequent, which implies an effort for universities to address changes in their daily tasks. In the present work, the validation of an instrument designed to find out the opinion of university students on the inclusion of students with disabilities in disability, the Questionnaire for the Study of Disability in Higher Education (CEDES), was carried out. We worked with a non-probabilistic sample of an intentional nature of 1,934 undergraduate students, and the reliability calculation and an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of the questionnaire under study were performed. The results obtained show that the instrument is reliable and that its factorial structure is made up of 5 factors (institutional framework, accessibility, information and orientation, access and participation). Based on the results obtained, it is concluded that the questionnaire is a useful tool to describe the opinion of students about attention to disabilities in the university institution.
