Tools for measuring attitudes towards people with disabilities: a systematic review of the literature

Dans notre soci & eacute;t & eacute;, les personnes en situation de handicap font l'objet de st & eacute;r & eacute;otypes et suscitent parfois des sentiments de peur et des intentions de rejet. Ces r & eacute;actions font r & eacute;f & eacute;rence aux attitudes c'est-& agrave;-dire & agrave; l'& eacute;valuation plus ou moins positive d'un objet (Eagly & Chaiken, 1993). La litt & eacute;rature scientifique s'est fortement int & eacute;ress & eacute;e aux attitudes-envers les personnes en situation de handicap (Breen, 2018; Palad et al., 2016) ou envers la scolarisation des & eacute;l & egrave;ves en situation de handicap (Desombre et al., 2019; Donath et al., 2023)-dans la mesure o & ugrave; elles sont susceptibles de pr & eacute;dire les comportements inclusifs (Ajzen, 1991). Cet article a pour objectif de faire l'inventaire des outils permettant de mesurer les attitudes explicites envers les personnes en situation de handicap utilisables dans des contextes diff & eacute;rents. Cette revue syst & eacute;matique de la litt & eacute;rature a & eacute;t & eacute; effectu & eacute;e gr & acirc;ce & agrave; la m & eacute;thode Prisma sur les bases de donn & eacute;es issues de APA PsycInfo, APA PsycArticles et Psychology and Behavioral Sciences collection et regroupe des articles publi & eacute;s en anglais et Fran & ccedil;ais entre janvier 2000 et juin 2021. Au total, 77 articles sur 837 ont & eacute;t & eacute; s & eacute;lectionn & eacute;s pour la revue. L'analyse de ces articles nous a permis d'identifier 22 outils de mesures des attitudes envers les personnes en situation de handicap. Une confrontation de ces outils et de leur utilisation est discut & eacute;e dans cet article. In our society, persons with disabilities are often subject to stereotyping and they may give rise to feelings of fear and rejection. These reactions refer to attitudes, that is, the more or less positive evaluations of an object (Eagly & Chaiken, 1993). Scientific literature has been greatly interested in attitudes-toward persons with disabilities (Breen, 2018; Palad et al., 2016) and the education of students with disabilities (Desombre et al., 2019; Donath et al., 2023)- and the extent to which those attitudes are likely to predict inclusive behaviours (Ajzen, 1991). This purpose of this article is to take stock of the tools available to measure explicit attitudes toward persons with disabilities in various contexts. This systematic literature review was carried out using the Prisma method and the databases of APA PsycInfo, APA PsycArticles and the Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection; it groups together articles published in French and in English between January 2000 and June 2021. In total, 77 articles out of 837 were selected for review. The analysis of these articles allowed us to identify 22 tools to measure attitudes toward persons with disabilities. Comparisons between these tools are their uses are discussed in this article.
