El presente estudio está enfocado en construir y analizar las propiedades psicométricas de una escala para medir las actitudes machistas adoptadas por mujeres de Juliaca. La metodología corresponde a un enfoque cuantitativo, diseño no experimental, de corte transversal y tipo instrumental. La muestra está conformada por 383 mujeres de 18 a 70 años de edad, a quienes se les administró la “Escala de Actitudes Machistas Adoptadas por Mujeres” (EAMAM) tomando como referencia la teoría sociológica de Durkheim (1972) así como la teoría constructivista postulada por Castañeda (2002). Los resultados indican que el índice de validez de contenido del instrumento alcanzó un V=1.000 [IC95% 0.845-1.000]; asimismo, se logró corroborar una solución factorial de tres dimensiones los cuales mostraron índices de ajuste esperados (CFI=1.0; TLI=1.0; NFI=1.0; RFI=1.0; IFI=1.0; RNI=1.0; R...

An observational cross-sectional study was conducted in order to determine the publication frequency of undergraduate health theses and identify their characteristics. The study population consisted of 482 health theses from four universities of the department of Puno approved between 2016 and 2018. Such theses belonged to the areas of medicine (25.10 %), nursing (46.5 %), nutrition (18.5 %) and psychology (10.00 %). The results show that 56.8 % of the theses used a descriptive design, 90.5 % used a non-experimental design, 36.1 % involved the hospital population and 58.70 % used a sample of 51 to 200 participants. Furthermore, only five theses (1.00 %) were published in an indexed scientific journal. It is concluded that there is a very low publication frequency of undergraduate health theses from universities of Puno, research studies use a basic design with a narrow scope and most res...
