This study reports a comparative profile of Quality of Life of people with intellectual disabilities attending vocational training schools in Chile. To this end, the QOL profile of people with disabilities (N=751) was obtained by means of a Subjective Assessment. Equally, the professionals in charge of the people with intellectual disabilities (N=82) were also assessed by means of an Objective Assessment. The self-perception of people with intellectual disabilities in respect to their Quality of Life was higher than the perception of the professionals in charge of them. In the Subjective Assesment used to obtain the profile of people with disabilities, the Occupational Wellbeing dimension stood out, and in the Objective Assessment, the Social Inclusion dimension emerged. Furthermore, Self-determination stood out as one of the dimensions with the lowest level of achievement in both assessments. It was also found that the female group had a better perception of the Occupational Wellbeing dimension and the male group had a better perception of the Emotional and Psychological Wellbeing dimension. In respect to the Objective Assessment, significant differences in the Social Inclusion dimension were found, favoring the male group; likewise, significant differences favoring the female group were also found regarding the Occupational Wellbeing dimension. Additionally, the highest scores in the dimensions of Self-determination, Material Wellbeing and Social Inclusion were given by the professionals working at schools with a social paradigm., Esta investigación presenta un perfil comparativo de calidad de vida de personas con discapacidad intelectual que asisten a centros de formación laboral. Se aplicó la Escala Integral, Evaluación Objetiva y Subjetiva de Calidad de Vida a personas con discapacidad intelectual (N = 751 para la evaluación subjetiva) y a los profesionales a cargo (N = 82 para la evaluación objetiva). La autopercepción de las personas respecto de su calidad de vida es superior a la percepción de los profesionales a su cargo y destaca la dimensión de bienestar laboral; y en la evaluación objetiva, la dimensión inclusión social.En ambas evaluaciones, la autodeterminación es una de las dimensiones con menor nivel de consecución. En la evaluación subjetiva, el grupo femenino tiene una mejor percepción en la dimensión bienestar laboral, y el grupo masculino en la dimensión bienestar emocional y físico. En la evaluación objetiva existen diferencias significativas a favor del grupo masculino en inclusión social, y en bienestar laboral a favor del grupo femenino. Los profesionales del paradigma social puntúan más alto en las dimensiones de autodeterminación, bienestarmaterial e inclusión social., A pesquisa apresenta um perfil comparativo de qualidade de vida de pessoas com deficiência intelectual, que assistem a centros de formação laboral. Aplicou-se a Escala Integral, Avaliação Objetiva e Subjetiva de Qualidade de Vida a pessoas com deficiência intelectual (N=751), Avaliação Subjetiva, e aos profissionais a cargo (N=82), Avaliação Objetiva. A autopercepção das pessoas com respeito a sua qualidade de vida é superior à percepção dos profissionais a seu cargo, destacando a dimensão de Bem-estar Laboral; e na Avaliação Objetiva a dimensão Inclusão Social. Em ambas as avaliações, a Autodeterminação é uma das dimensões com menor nível de consecução. Na Avaliação Subjetiva, o grupo feminino tem uma maior percepção na dimensão Bem-estar Laboral, e o grupo masculino na dimensão Bem-estar Emcional e Físico. Na Avaliação Objetiva existem diferenças significativas a favor do grupo masculino em Inclusão Social e em Bem-estar Laboral a favor do grupo feminino. Os profissionais do paradigma social pontuam mais alto nas dimensões de Autodeterminação, Bem-estar material e Inclusão social.

The aim of this paper is to describe the factor analysis of the perceptions that future teachers describe to meet legal mandates on universal design for learning present in the Chilean education laws. Participants were 150 undergraduate student teachers. A questionnaire was developed for this study taking into account the Guidelines 2.0 on universal design for learning and the main Chilean education laws. The main results show that there are 3 factors, and that those factors, described the paradigm of universal design for learning and the demands of students. The authors discuss the need of researches that support the use of inclusive methodologies and they support the universal design for learning as a optimal method and current paradigm in Chilean education laws., El objetivo de este trabajo es realizar un análisis factorial de las percepciones que los futuros docentes describen para cumplir con los mandatos legales sobre diseño universal para el aprendizaje presentes en las leyes educativas chilenas. Los participantes fueron 150 estudiantes de magisterio. Un cuestionario fue creado para este estudio teniendo en cuenta lo descrito en las Pautas 2.0 sobre el diseño universal para el aprendizaje y las principales leyes educativas chilenas. Los principales resultados muestran que existen 3 factores que se relacionan con lo descrito en el paradigma del diseño universal para el aprendizaje y en las demandas de los estudiantes. Los autores discuten la necesidad de disponer de estudios que avalen el uso metodologías inclusivas, siendo el diseño universal para el aprendizaje el paradigma más adecuado y presente en las leyes educativas chilenas.
