In order to determine if the Conscientiousness trait of personality is a good predictor of the attitude towards the thesis, a predictive correlative study was carried out with a population of 83 university students of a Scientific Society. The conscientiousness sub-scale of the NEO PI-R personality inventory and the attitude scale towards the realization of a thesis were applied. The results show that the facets of competence, sense of duty and reflection are what significantly predict the attitude towards the university thesis; likewise, a direct and moderate association is observed between both variables. The predominance of the conscientiousness trait in the personality profile of university students involved in research groups predicts favorable attitudes towards the elaboration of degree work.

Con el objetivo de determinar si el rasgo conciencia de la personalidad es un buen predictor de la actitud hacia la tesis, se realizó un estudio asociativo predictivo con una población de 83 universitarios de una sociedad científica a quienes se les aplicó la subescala factor conciencia del inventario de personalidad NEO PI-R y la escala de actitud hacia la realiza-ción de una tesis. Los resultados evidencian que las facetas competencia, sentido del deber y reflexión son las que predicen significativamente la actitud hacia la tesis universitaria. Así mismo, se observa una asociación directa a nivel moderado entre ambas variables. Se concluye que la predominancia del rasgo conciencia en el perfil de personalidad de uni-versitarios involucrados en grupos de investigación predice actitudes favorables hacia la elaboración de trabajos de grado.

“Introducción: La periodontitis apical asintomática es de los diagnósticos endodónticos más comunes que se presentan en la población mundial. Consiste en la afectación del tejido periapical como resultado de la activación de mecanismos de inflamación, los que incluyen lisis y reabsorción de tejidos de soporte como cemento, ligamento y hueso alveolar. El signo patognomónico de la periodontitis apical es la presencia de radiolucidez periapical, resultado de la destrucción de los tejidos periapicales. Su principal tratamiento abarca el manejo endodóntico convencional cuyo objetivo es la eliminación de los irritantes locales dentro del conducto radicular. Sin embargo, cuando se desarrollan lesiones de gran tamaño es necesario complementar con terapias que aceleren la reparación, una de ellas la descompresión, la cual a partir de la reducción de la presión intralesión e ...

“The new modality caused by COVID-19 has significantly affected tourism, from the decrease in demand and the deterioration of facilities due to lack of budget to the point of becoming unattractive. In response to this, the objective of this research work is to design and validate a scale to measure Brand Personality in Tourist Destinations (BPTD). The results were structured in three phases. In the first phase, an exhaustive search of the bibliography and first version of the instrument were generated. Moreover, a panel of 12 professionals between academics and managers was held, who evaluated the features and content validation by a panel of 7 experts. In the second phase, data collection was carried out with the participation of 998 tourists. In the third phase, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was carried out, obtaining a KMO of 0.979 and a p-value of 0.000. The total ex...

The objective of this paper was to study if social support and empathy predict life satisfaction in Brazilian university students. Through a non-probabilistic sampling for convenience, the voluntary participation of 374 Brazilian university students over 18 years of age from public and private universities was sought. The questionnaires applied were the Zimet Social Support scale, the Jolliffe and Farrington Basic Empathy scale (BES) and the SWLS Life Satisfaction Scale by Diener. The results showed a relationship between the variables Social Support and Empathy with a result of 0.217 (p<0.01), relationship between Social Support and Satisfaction with life is 0.415 (p<0.01). Likewise, a relationship was found between empathy in its Affective dimension -0.103 (p<0.05), and in its Cognitive dimension 0.104 (p<0.05) with satisfaction with life. The regression analysis showed that 18.9% of t...

Objetivo: Determinar las propiedades psicométricas de la escala de Inseguridad Laboral en su versión original de cuatro ítems en trabajadores peruanos. Material y Métodos: Estudio transversal e instrumental que tomó la escala de Inseguridad Laboral, para poder validarla en el contexto del COVID-19. Con una muestra de 332 trabajadores de entidades públicas y privadas se validó los elementos de forma y fondo de la escala. Resultados: Se encontró V de Aiken con valores > 0,70 para los cuatros ítems. Los valores de asimetría y curtosis fueron de 24,3. Además, el AFE se justifica con un KMO (0,780) y un Bartlett (654,235; gl = 6; p < 0,001). Como resultado todos los ítems se condensaron en un solo factor. Finalmente, los valores (λ) para el modelo unidimensional fueron significativas (ítem 1 = 0,85; ítem 2 = 0,90; ítem 3 = 0,84; ítem 4 = - 0,40). Conclusiones: La escala de In...

Introduction: To protect public health, it is important that the population be vaccinated against COVID-19; however, certain factors can affect vaccine acceptance. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine whether religious fatalism and concern about new variants have a significant effect on the acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines. Methodology: An explanatory study was conducted with 403 adults of legal age captured through non-probabilistic convenience sampling in vaccination centers in the 13 health networks of the Regional Health Directorate of Puno, Peru. Data were collected through a brief scale of religious fatalism, a scale of acceptance of vaccines against COVID-19 and a scale of concern about a new variant of COVID-19. Results: The proposed model obtained an adequate fit. There was a negative effect of religious fatalism on vaccine acceptance, a positive effect of fata...

Objective: To design and validate the motivation to publish scale-scientific articles (EMP-AC) for Peruvian university students. Methods: This was an instrumental study in which 653 health, business, humanities and engineering students from private and state universities in the 3 regions of Peru participated. The scale was designed in 5 stages following international standards. The internal structure was assessed through both an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Results: The content analysis by expert judges also supported the representativeness of the items related to the construction. The internal structure of the 13-item scale was confirmed through the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) which showed a structure of three factors: commitment, behavior, and intentional state as initially proposed. Previous anal...

La viruela del simio está causando gran preocupación en la sociedad por su gran poder infectivo y la posibilidad de que se convierta en una nueva pandemia. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo adaptar y validar la escala de preocupación por la viruela del simio en la población adulta peruana (EP-VIR-MONK). Se realizó un estudio transversal instrumental bajo un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia con 779 adultos de las tres regiones del Perú (costa, sierra y selva). El instrumento fue adaptado en base a un instrumento previamente validado relacionado con la preocupación que genera el COVID-19 en el Perú. La validez de contenido se calculó con el coeficiente V de Aiken, la estructura interna con análisis factorial confirmatorio y la confiabilidad con el coeficiente omega. La primera evidencia de validez de EP-VIR-MONK basada en su contenido, estructura interna, y confiabilida...
