This article is a study of the application of the Questionnaire of Opinions on Science, Technology and Society (COCTS) with a new methodology based on a multiple-response model, to achieve a more valid and meaningful assessment of attitudes regarding issues of science, technology & society (STS), in a sample of high school students. It presents the application of this methodology and its ability to evaluate more precisely, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the STS attitudes of students whose overall level is mediocre, since they are outstanding for their lesser adaptation, and their beliefs about science epistemology. It also shows the lack of equivalence between isolated statements used to assess attitudes and their methodological implications for research on attitudes. Finally, it suggests some implications of the results for teaching STS themes in the school. En este artículo se presenta un estudio sobre la aplicación del Cuestionario de Opiniones de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad (COCTS) con una nueva metodología y un modelo de respuesta múltiple para lograr una evaluación más válida y significativa de las actitudes relativas a los temas de ciencia, tecnología y sociedad (CTS), de una muestra de estudiantes de bachillerato. Se expone la aplicación de esta metodología y su capacidad para evaluar de una manera más precisa, cualitativa y cuantitativamente, las actitudes CTS de los estudiantes, cuyo nivel global es mediocre, ya que sobresalen, por su menor adecuación, sus creencias sobre epistemología de la ciencia. Así mismo, se muestra la falta de equivalencia entre frases aisladas para evaluar las actitudes y sus consecuencias metodológicas para la investigación de actitudes. Por último, se proponen algunas implicaciones de los resultados para la educación de los temas CTS en la escuela.
