Popis: The aim of this study was to analyse the validated psychometric characteristics of the “Scale of Attitudes towards New Post-Pandemic Scenarios” (SANPS) tool using a short version on Perceptions of Future Teachers towards the New Post-Pandemic Educational Scenarios; describe the attitudes of future teachers towards motivation, collaboration, and emerging active pedagogies; and determine the internal consistency and reliability of the tool. The design structure of the instrument consists of the following three latent factors, which were obtained through an exploratory factor analysis (EFA): empowerment/motivation, autonomy/situated learning and emerging digital pedagogies. The questionnaire was administered to a sample of 966 participants. In the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), a previous hypothesis was established regarding the relationship of the factors and their number and nature, specifying the number of factors and the way in which the variables are related to each other. The 66.53% of total variance was explained. The reliability, calculated with Cronbach’s alpha, reached a global value of over 0.90 (α = 0.94). This valid and reliable questionnaire, which incorporates a dimension that measures the transfer of learning in hybrid and multimodal models of digital ecosystems in Higher Education, can be applied in the evaluation of online education processes.
