An experimental study of correlational analysis was carried out, the sample was constituted by 14 students, for data collection the survey technique was used and as an instrument the environmental attitudes scale questionnaire, already validated. As results it was found that the pretest reached 104.07 % compared to the posttest with 135.64 %, where a change is clearly evidenced within the environmental attitudes when using PBA within the cognitive, affective and reactive dimensions.
