Validación actitud cambio de actitud. This article develops an initial version of the instrument CE-PAC. The internal validity analysis reveals the existence of three factors which explain 56.58% of the variance; which have to do with the dimensions of theoretically-postulated attitudes (cognition, conduct and emotions); and which must be stressed if one wishes to improve the willingness to act. The application of the questionnaire, using a pretest-posttest design, to a sample of the unemployed, shows that it is possible to change the attitudinal predisposition of these persons towards adaptability, especially in those younger than 35 years. El presente artículo desarrolla una primera versión del instrumento Ce-PAC. El análisis de validez interna revela la existencia de tres factores que explican el 56.58% de la varianza y que se corresponden con las dimensiones de las actitudes postuladas teóricamente (cognición, conducta y emociones) y sobre las que se debe incidir si se quiere mejorar la predisposición a actuar. La aplicación del cuestionario, utilizando un diseño pretest-postest, a una muestra de personas desempleadas, demuestra que es posible cambiar su predisposición actitudinal hacia la adaptabilidad, especialmente en aquellas menores de 35 años.

description This article develops an initial version of the instrument CE-PAC. The internal validity analysis reveals the existence of three factors which explain 56.58% of the variance; which have to do with the dimensions of theoretically-postulated attitudes (cognition, conduct and emotions); and which must be stressed if one wishes to improve the willingness to act. The application of the questionnaire, using a pretest-posttest design, to a sample of the unemployed, shows that it is possible to change the attitudinal predisposition of these persons towards adaptability, especially in those younger than 35 years.
