Our aim was to determine the educational gap according to gender, socioeconomic status, and generational group among city adults. The study design was observational and cross-sectional, using data from the 2016-2017 Population Study in Chimbote, Peru. We looked at educational attainment, sex, socioeconomic status and age (for defining generational groups) of 20,005 people aged 22 years and over. Data were summarized in cross-tables and analyzed with a Chi-square test of homogeneity. The results showed that adults presented an educational gap, with a clear disadvantage in the lower socioeconomic level, particularly in the secondary and higher education level groups. Within the socioeconomic levels there are educational inequalities, evidenced in secondary and higher achievement for the poorest women and at the higher level for the younger generations of both socioeconomic levels.

Background: Schools are increasingly experiencing physical, psychological, and sexual violence, which impacts students’ academic achievement and physical and emotional health. Our objective was to identify regional prevalence rates, average prevalence by aggressor type, and provincial spatial conglomerates with higher rates for each type of school violence reported in educational settings in Peru during 2019. Methods: An analysis was made of 12,132 cases reported through Peru’s Specialized School Violence System (SíseVe). The Moran indices were calculated using provincial prevalence rates to identify conglomerates with high prevalence. Results: In the coast region, the Department of Tacna reported the highest prevalence rates for physical (99.7) and psychological (107); the Department of Amazonas, which is in the jungle, reported the highest prevalence rate for sexual violence (74.6...

El pensamiento científico es el desarrollo de habilidades y conocimientos que el estudiante va adquiriendo en la solución de problemas, por ello se planteó el siguiente problema: ¿cómo el método de proyectos desarrolla el pensamiento científico en la edad de 5 años de la I.E. ―303‖ Edén Maravilloso, del distrito de Nuevo Chimbote, 2014. El estudio fue de tipo cuantitativo, el nivel explicativo, con un diseño de investigación pre experimental con un pre test y pos test a un solo grupo de estudiantes. La muestra fue de 29 niños y niñas de 5 años de edad, para la investigación se utilizó la observación como técnica y la lista de cotejo como instrumento. Asimismo para comprobar el nivel de significancia se aplicó la prueba estadística de Wilcoxon. El resultado del pre test demostró que el 65% de los niños y niñas obtuvo un logro C en el desarrollo del pensamiento c...

“Background: The aims of the study was to evaluate the psychometric properties and to characteristics of a scale on research skills as well as to characterize the experience of university thesis students using information databases (i.e., Scopus or Web of Science) and bibliographic reference managers. Methods: A sample of 1598 university students from five departments, acroos the different campuses of one Peruvian university. The psychometric properties of the instrument were evaluated using factor analysis and measurement invariance according to sex and age groups. In addition, an internal consistency analysis was conducted for scale reliability using Cronbach’s alpha, ordinal alpha, and the omega index. Results: Our study identified that the unidimensional model with correlated errors showed adequate indicators of reliability and goodness of fit, with the exception of the RMSEA, wh...
