ResumenEl presente artículo tiene por objetivo analizar la relación entre los perfiles de perfeccionismo y el desempeño académico en una muestra de estudiantes universitarios de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. El desempeño ha sido operacionalizado a través de las variables promedio académico general percibido, calificación del último examen, cantidad de exámenes adeudados y años de carrera cursados. Participaron en la investigación 465 estudiantes pertenecientes a las carreras de Psicología (52,2%) Ingeniería (26,2%) y Medicina (21,6%). La distribución de la población de estudiantes en los distintos perfiles de perfeccionismo (adaptativo-PA, desadaptativo-PD y no perfeccionistas-NP) se presentó según las predicciones derivadas de la teoría y los estudios previos realizados por nuestro equipo de investigación. Respecto a la relación entre los diferentes perfiles y el desempeño académico, se encontró que los estudiantes con un perfil de PA presentaron un promedio percibido significativamente superior, y una cantidad de exámenes adeudados significativamente menor que los estudiantes de los restantes perfiles. No se evidenciaron diferencias significativas para estas variables entre los sujetos con un perfil de PD y los estudiantes NP. Para las restantes variables no se hallaron diferencias significativas entre los distintos perfiles de perfeccionismo. Se discuten las implicancias de estos hallazgos para futuras investigaciones en el área. Palabras Clave: perfeccionismo -desempeño académico -estudiantes universitarios
PERFECTIONISM AND ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN THE AUTONOMOUS CITY OF BUENOS AIRES
AbstractThe aim of this article is to analyze the relationship between perfectionism and academic performance of university graduate students in the City of Buenos Aires. 465 university undergraduates participated in this study: Psychology students (52.2%), Engineering students (26.2%) and Medicine students (21.6%). The resulting scores used to set the different perfectionism profiles (adaptative perfectionists-AP, maladaptive perfectionists-MP, and non perfectionists-NP), are similar to those expected according to current theory and to our previous studies. Regarding the relationship between the different student
This article presents the results of a preliminary trial, in the context of an intervention, developed by a team of ergonomists under the request of the Occupational Health Department of the General Management of Schools in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. We present a reformulation of the request and the results obtained in 2009 from observations and interviews held in three schools in the province of Buenos Aires in which different jobs positions were assessed. From this stage onwards, the tools were validated and new aspects were shown, particularly in relation to the high variety of real situations in the education sector.
Ao elaborar a solicitação de artigos para deste dossier temático, iniciou-se um debate entre os membros do comitê: deveríamos falar-se de digitalização ou númerização? De fato os franceses, reticentes em relação à apropriação de palavras inglesas, quase não utilizam a palavra 'digitalização', que é utilizada noutros países francófonicos, hispânicos e lusófonos. Mas para além do debate linguístico e cultural, o uso (ou não) deste termo é revelador de problemas paradigmáticos.
