The purpose of this research was to determine the psychometric properties of the ADCA 1 assertiveness scale, the type of research is instrumental; we worked with a sample of 730 individuals between the ages of 13 and 16. It was considered a non-probabilistic sample by trials. The results indicate that the Self-Assertiveness scale in its original proposal does not present evidence of construct validity (X2 / gl = 2,648; GFI = 0.883; CFI = 0.807; RMSEA = 0.048 and SRMR = 0.0532); After analyzing the items, an exploratory analysis with an oblique rotation is sought, obtaining 5 factors that explain 43,602% of the construct. The adjustment index of the 5-factor proposal presents evidence of construct validity (X2 / gl = 2,225; GFI = 0.936; CFI = 0.900; RMSEA = 0.041; SRMR = 0.0463), a general level the scale with 25 items presents a αordinal = 0.902 and u Ω = 0.902. In conclusion, the 25-i...

En este artículo se investigan las actitudes en cuanto a la investigación y su relación con el rendimiento académico en un grupo de estudiantes de primer ciclo de una universidad privada. El método se trabajó con alumnos de psicología e ingeniería, con una muestra de 420 personas seleccionadas mediante un muestreo de tipo intencional. Para esto se utilizó una escala de actitudes hacia la investigación elaborada y, a fin de medir el rendimiento académico, se trabajó con las notas promedio obtenidas en los cursos donde elaboran trabajos de investigación formativa. Los hallazgos más significativos indican que no existe relación entre la actitud hacia la investigación y el rendimiento académico; solo existe correspondencia entre el componente cognitivo y afectivo de la actitud hacia la investigación y el rendimiento académico.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the program I discover my potentialities in a group of first cycle university students; the study design was preexperimental, it worked with a sample of 382 students from the business, engineering and humanities areas, of both sexes and from national and private schools; BarOn's ICE emotional intelligence inventory was used for pre and post measurement.

Unesco (2018) indicates that one in three students are victims of bullying at school age, which is why the present research aimed to establish the link between pro-social ability and behaviors against bullying in Peruvian adolescents between 12 and 14 years old. The research was descriptive correlational type; the study sample consisted of 109 students calculated with the G * Power program version 3.1.9.4; the sampling used was non-probabilistic for convenience. The instruments used were piloted with a sample of 100 subjects, the scale of pro-social skills in adolescents (EHP-A) obtained a O = 0.943; and the Multimodal School Interaction Questionnaire (CMIE-IV) obtained O = 0.850. The results showed significant and inverse correlations with low effect sizes between pro-social skills and behaviors in the face of bullying, only direct and significant correlations were found between perspec...

Currently, there is evidence of an increase in displacement caused by conflicts, persecution, lack of opportunities, security, among other reasons, increasing the migrant population in Latin American countries. The displaced Venezuelans stand out, with Peru being the second country in Latin America with more than this population of migrants. Studies have warned about the devaluation of migrants and especially those who live with infectious diseases such as HIV. The autochthonous citizens of the receiving country perceive the presence of the outgroup as threats to their social rights, related to negative attitudes, which has been promoted by the media. Therefore, it is important to carry out studies that estimate the discernment of out-group threats closely towards migrants. The objective is to evaluate the psychometric evidence of the EPAE measurement instrument in a sample of Peruvian a...

This article investigates attitudes toward research and its relation to academic performance in a group of first cycle students from a private university. Method was worked with students of psychology and engineering. A sample of 420 people selected through an intentional sampling was used. We used a scale of attitudes towards the research developed for the present research, to measure the academic performance we worked with the average grades obtained in the courses where they elaborate formative research works. The most significant findings indicate that there is no relationship between attitudes towards research and academic achievement. There is only a relationship between the cognitive and affective components of attitude toward research and academic performance.

The research aimed to establish the differences in the emotional intelligence of students in the first cycle of a private university. The Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory was applied to a sample consisting of 1,940 male and female subjects from 16 to 25 years old. Crossover design was used with a significance level of 0.05 (p <0.05) and found no statistically significant difference regarding sex between the following components: interpersonal component, stress management and general mood. There are differences regarding the type of school in total emotional quotient, intrapersonal component, adaptability, stress management, the subcomponents of self-knowledge, assertiveness, self-concept, self-realization, social responsibility, problem solving, reality testing, flexibility, stress management, impulse control and optimism.

The purpose of the present study is to know the psychometric properties for investigations related to the antisocial and criminal behavior of the Automatic Thoughts Inventory of Ruiz and Lujan (1991). In the first stage of the study, the instrument was applied to 270 students of both genders, aged 14 to 17 years and attending the secondary level in different educational institutions at Comas district, in Lima. The results showed in the first stage the restructuration of the inventory of 15 dimensions (original version) to 7 dimensions, by means of the exploratory factorial analysis, obtaining in this way the construct validity of the instrument. In the second stage, the obtained dimensions showed correlation levels between acceptable items (ritc>0.20) confirming the reliability of the inventory in its final version. Finally, the Automatic Thoughts Inventory in its modified version was...

The purpose of this study is to know the psychometric properties of the AD (anti-social and criminal behavior) questionnaire (Nicolas Seisdedos ,1988). Data was collected from 200 students of high school in Comas (district of Lima) aged from 14 to 17. The results showed a validity on 37 items (V-Aiken>0,80), which were applied to the sample, and as a result, adequate reliability values were obtained (ritc>0,20) in the two scales (anti-social and criminal behavior). Moreover, the concurrent validity of the criteria was conducted by means of the correlation with a questionnaire adapted to the study population, obtaining acceptable values that confirmed the criteria validity. Finally, 33 items were obtained by the AD questionnaire and it was divided into two scales: anti-social behavior (19 items) and criminal behavior (14 items). In conclusion, the validated questionnaire offers psyc...
