Resumen
[ES] El cambio climático representa un desafío para la salud pública, lo que implica que los
profesionales sanitarios deben comprender su responsabilidad en este problema y adoptar
conductas ambientalmente conscientes. El objetivo del estudio fue adaptar y validar el
cuestionario HEAT al contexto español para evaluar el nivel de conciencia ambiental, los
comportamientos sostenibles y su relación con la salud entre los profesionales sanitarios en
España.
Se realizó un estudio observacional transversal para traducir, adaptar y validar el cuestionario
HEAT, seguido del análisis psicométrico de los ítems utilizando el modelo Rasch policotómico. La
muestra consistió en 450 profesionales de 9 hospitales. El cuestionario mostró buen ajuste para
los ítems y las personas, con valores de consistencia interna y confiabilidad fueron > 0.75.
En conclusión, el cuestionario HEAT resulta ser una herramienta útil y precisa para medir la
conciencia ambiental, los comportamientos sostenibles y las percepciones de las repercusiones
en la salud.
