Objective: To develop and validate a questionnaire to measure attitudes towards prevention and health promotion. %26lt;br%26gt;Design: Cross-sectional study for the validation of a questionnaire. %26lt;br%26gt;Location: Primary Health Care (autonomous community of Andalusia, Spain). %26lt;br%26gt;Participants: 282 professionals (nurses and doctors) belonging to the Public Health System. %26lt;br%26gt;Main measurements: Content validation by experts, ceiling effects and floor effects, correlation between items, internal consistency, stability and exploratory factor analysis. %26lt;br%26gt;Results: The 56 items of the tool (CAPPAP) obtained, including those from the review of other tools and the contributions of the experts, were grouped into 5 dimensions. The percentage of expert agreement was over 70% on all items, and a high concordance between prevention and promotion item was obtained, thus, duplicates were removed leaving a final tool with 44 items. The internal consistency, measured by Cronbach%26apos;s alpha, was 0.888. The test retest indicated concordance from substantial to almost perfect. Exploratory factor analysis identified five factors that accounted for 48.92% of the variance. %26lt;br%26gt;Conclusions: CAPPAP is a tool that is quick and easy to administer, that is well accepted by professionals, and that has acceptable psychometric results, both globally and at the level of each dimension.
