A key factor for educational inclusion is peers\u2019 attitudes towards disabilities, which impact disabled students\u2019 social participation and learning. Physical Education (PE) classes represent an opportunity for students with disabilities to get psychological, social, health, and educational benefits. This study aimed to assess Spanish students\u2019 attitudes regarding their peers with disabilities during PE lessons and to explore possible differences between gender, school location, and age group. The sample consisted of 1437 students from public schools in Extremadura (Spain) from the primary and secondary stages. Participants completed the Attitude towards Students with Disabilities in Physical Education (EAADEF-EP) Questionnaire. The Mann-Whitney U test was carried out to establish differences in scores according to sex, school location, age group, and correlations between age and item scores using the Spearman\u2019s Rho test. The results displayed significant differences in the total and item scores considering sex and centre location, with good reliability values (Cronbach\u2019s alpha = 0.86). The EAADEF-EP Questionnaire has proven to be a quick, easy, and inexpensive tool to assess attitudes. Girls and participants whose school was in a rural setting had better attitudes towards inclusion. This study\u2019s results highlight the importance of carrying out educational actions and programs to improve students\u2019 attitudes towards their peers with disabilities considering the influences of the studied variables.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph20053802","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,22]],"date-time":"2023-02-22T02:57:38Z","timestamp":1677034658000},"page":"3802","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Attitudes towards Peers with Disabilities among Schoolchildren in Physical Education Classes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6542-7828","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jorge","family":"Rojo-Ramos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Activity for Education, Performance and Health, Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Extremadura, 10003 C\u00e1ceres, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1623-0316","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Santiago","family":"Gomez-Paniagua","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bio\u1ebcrgon Research Group, University of Extremadura, 10003 C\u00e1ceres, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7203-3168","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jose Carmelo","family":"Adsuar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Promoting a Healthy Society Research Group (PHeSO), Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Extremadura, 10003 C\u00e1ceres, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9502-5486","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Mendoza-Mu\u00f1oz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Group on Physical and Health Literacy and Health-Related Quality of Life (PHYQOL), Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Extremadura, 10003 Caceres, Spain"},{"name":"Departamento de Desporto e Sa\u00fade, Escola de Sa\u00fade e Desenvolvimento Humano, Universidade de \u00c9vora, 7004-516 \u00c9vora, Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7239-960X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Castillo-Paredes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Grupo AFySE, Investigaci\u00f3n en Actividad F\u00edsica y Salud Escolar, Escuela de Pedagog\u00eda en Educaci\u00f3n F\u00edsica, Facultad de Educaci\u00f3n, Universidad de Las Am\u00e9ricas, Santiago 8370040, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5740-305X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Angel","family":"Denche-Zamorano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Promoting a Healthy Society Research Group (PHeSO), Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Extremadura, 10003 C\u00e1ceres, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1736-0996","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Miguel Angel","family":"Garcia-Gordillo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Chile, Talca 3467987, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7128-5451","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sabina","family":"Barrios-Fernandez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Occupation, Participation, Sustainability and Quality of Life (Ability Research Group), Nursing and Occupational Therapy College, University of Extremadura, 10003 C\u00e1ceres, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Kiuppis, F., and Hausstatter, R.S.
