Fisioterapia graduko ikasleek desgaitasunekiko dituzten jarrerak unibertsitateko formazioan zehar

The aim of this study was to analyse and evaluate the attitude of first- and fourth-year physiotherapy students at the University of the Basque Country towards people with disabilities. In or- der to achieve this objective, a scale of attitudes towards people with disabilities has been used. A se- ries of factors that can influence attitudes (age, gender and contact with people with disabilities) has also been measured. Statistical analyses were carried out and the results showed that first and fourth year students have a positive attitude. Several factors have also been found to positively influence atti- tude (age and contact with people with disabilities). On the other hand, no significant differences were found in attitudes between men and women.
