The aim of this work was to propose a latent equation model that structures the relationship between academic engagement, schadenfreude and prosocial behavior on the school climate. We used a cross-sectional design and 437 secondary students from Chile were recruited. School Climate Scale, Engagement UWES-S 9, School Prosocial Behavior Inventory and Schadenfreude scale were administered. Factor analysis, reliability test, correlation analysis and structural equation modeling were performed to analysis data. After fitting two models for our data and contrasting them with theoretical literature, we found that school climate was affected directly by school engagement and prosocial behavior. Academic engagement positive affects, direct and indirectly, the school climate. An increase in academic engagement also lowers the levels of schadenfreude and causes an increase in the levels of pr...

Background: we are facing a global crisis that threatens the subsistence of the planet. Although during the last decades a set of measures have been proposed to face this global crisis, the results have not been auspicious. State of the art: given the important role of professionals in society, in this work it is argued that a systematic development of professional identity in initial training is key to sustainable development. It is proposed that this professional identity could be built based on the dimensions (a) integration of subjective, professional and scientific knowledge, (b) creativity to address current and future problems, (c) prosocial and (d) ecological. The objective of this work is to support the urgency of this to respond to the global crisis and provide suggestions that guide the systematic development of professional identity during initial training, based on these dim...
