AB The main aims of the present study is to translate, carry out and test the validity and reliability of a transculturaladaptation of the Children Attitudes towards Integrated Physical Education - Revised CAIPE-R (Block, 1995) intothe Spanish language in order to be used in Spain. Participants were 791 primary school students without disabilities(393 males and 398 females, aged between 9 to 13 years old, mean age 10.80 ± 0.739). The CAIPE-R measuresthe attitudes that children without disabilities have towards the inclusion of children with disabilities in theirgeneral physical education (GPE) lessons. Results confirm a structure of three components of the scale CAIPE-SPaccounting for 35.982% of the variance. The estimation of reliability for the subscales was .812, .470 and .374, respectively.Taking into account the obtained results, the transcultural adaptation of the scale CAIPE-R into Spanishsupposes a valuable contribution to the research about the perception of disabilities in physical education.
