Resumen

El presente estudio analiza la validez y confiabilidad del instrumento Beliefs About Teaching for Creativity Scale (BATCS) en el contexto chileno. La investigación tuvo como propósito explorar la estructura factorial y la consistencia interna de la escala desarrollada por Katz-Buonincontro et al. (2020, 2021), que evalúa cinco dimensiones de las creencias docentes sobre creatividad: deseabilidad, autoeficacia, mentalidad fija y de crecimiento, y valor de la creatividad para los estudiantes. Participaron 251 docentes de distintos niveles educativos. Los resultados muestran niveles adecuados de confiabilidad y un ajuste aceptable del modelo de cinco factores. No obstante, se observaron particularidades en la dimensión de valor y en la relación entre mentalidades fija y de crecimiento, lo que sugiere diferencias culturales respecto de otros contextos. Los hallazgos respaldan la validez del instrumento y, a la vez, indican la necesidad de posibles ajustes conceptuales y lingüísticos para su aplicación en América Latina.
