Resumen :
Poverty is a multidimensional phenomenon that includes a lack of education, health or
housing; it is a relevant factor of social vulnerability that could lead to a situation of social exclusion.
According to studies, poverty can be explained by external/social, internal/individual or cultural
fatalistic factors. The aim was to confirm the structure of causal attributions of poverty and their
relationships with sociodemographic characteristics, as well as religious and political beliefs, in young
people. This is a cross-sectional study with a non-probabilistic convenience sample of undergraduate
students on different degree courses. A survey was administered to 278 participants (45.4% women)
with an average age of 21.59. They were young people studying health science degrees (78.4%) who
self-identified as belonging to the lower or middle–lower class (57.2%), without any religious beliefs
(56.5%) and as left wing (37.8%; n = 94) or center-left (27.7%; n = 69) in their political orientation.
Confirmatory factorial analysis and multiple regression analysis supported the results in previous
literature (CFI = 0.90, SRMR = 0.07, RMSEA = 0.06), indicating that there are cultural (C), external
(E-S) and internal (I) attribution factors of poverty. The results show moderate relationships between
the cultural factor and internal or external factors. The findings show that political affiliation and sex
are the most consistent predictors of attributions for poverty.
