El artículo consideró como objetivo identificar el nivel de felicidad en estudiantes universitarios que atraviesan una coyuntura atípica ocasionada por la pandemia Covid-19, la misma que tuvo como una de sus consecuencias en el ámbito educativo el desarrollo de clases a partir de sistemas remotos y virtuales, sucesos nuevos en un país como el Perú, los cuales después de un periodo de implementación registran efectos peculiares que permiten su estudio, la investigación utilizó el método no experimental, de corte transversal, tipo descriptivo de carácter cuantitativo en una muestra estratificada y proporcional de 224 universitarios de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación de la UNA – Puno, la única variable de estudio se evaluó con la Escala de Felicidad de Lima que consta de 27 reactivos. Entre los resultados más resaltantes se tiene que el 33.9%, percibe la felicidad en un nivel bajo, el 38.8% en un nivel medio y un 27.2% en un nivel alto. Se concluye el estudio afirmando que el nivel de felicidad de los estudiantes no responde a niveles deseados, debido a situaciones nulas de socialización académica causada por la emergencia sanitaria.

Background and Objectives: The presence of the new SARS-CoV-2 virus is causing enormous threats to people’s health and lives, so quantifying the scientific productivity on mental health in times of pandemic is an urgent need, especially to expand the degree of knowledge on mental health problems in regions of low scientific productivity. The aim was to characterize the bibliometric indicators of scientific productivity on mental health during the pandemic in the PubMed Identifier database of the National Library of Medicine in the United States. Materials and Methods: A documentary study (bibliometric) of the scientific productivity on mental health in times of pandemic from January 2020 to June 2021 was carried out. The PubMed database was used to abstract the information from the original scientific articles. The data abstracted were: authors, year of publication, journal name, country, and language of publication. Results: We identified 47 original articles worldwide, which were published in 29 journals and in three languages (English, Spanish, and German). We observed three groups of countries that published on mental health topics. The first group comprised the largest number of publications, which were multicenter studies (six studies), followed by India (five studies), and Italy (four studies). A second group comprised Bangladesh, China, USA, and Spain, with 3 studies each; and a third group comprised 13 countries (Albania, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, Brazil, South Korea, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, Greece, Japan, Jordan, Kuwait, and New Zealand) with one study each. Conclusions: Bibliometric indicators of scientific productivity on mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic have ostensibly increased. We verified 47 studies in PubMed, which could serve to improve the understanding and management of COVID-19, as well as serve as a thought-provoking means for other countries and researchers to publish on the state of mental health during and post pandemic.

RESUMENLa presente investigación descriptiva correlacional tiene por objeto determinar la relación entre motivación laboral y desempeño laboral en 77 docentes de la Facultad de Educación de la UNA Puno, para medir la motivación laboral se elaboró un cuestionario de 30 ítems al que se determinó la consistencia interna-Alpha de Cronbach del instrumento total y de cada uno de los ítems con un índice de confiabilidad equivalente a 0.82. La evaluación de desempeño docente se determinó considerando resultados obtenidos por la oficina académica universitaria correspondiente al año 2014. En la primera dimensión de la variable motivación, relacionada a factores de higiene el 59.1% de docentes manifiestan alta satisfacción. En la segunda dimensión eminentemente motivadora como son el reconocimiento, crecimiento y satisfacción laboral se evidencia que el 79.5% de docentes muestran alta motivación. Los mismos porcentajes se observan en la evaluación de la motivación final que reúne las dos dimensiones estudiadas. En el desempeño docente global un 77.3% se encontró en la categoría bueno. Se concluye afirmando correlación baja con tendencia positiva entre las variables.Palabras clave: Desempeño docente, enseñanza univesitaria, factores motivacionales, factores de higiene. ABSTRACTThe purpose of this descriptive correlational investigation is to determine the relationship between work motivation and work performance in 77 teachers of the faculty of education of the UNA Puno. To measure work motivation, a 30-item questionnaire was developed, which was used to determine the internal consistency-Cronbach's Alpha of the total instrument and each of the items with a reliability index equivalent to 0.82. For the evaluation of teaching performance, the results obtained by the university academic office corresponding to 2014 were taken into account. The results show that in the first dimension of the motivation variable, related to hygiene factors, 59.1% of teachers show high satisfaction. In the second eminently motivating dimension such as recognition, growth and job satisfaction, it is evident that 79.5% of teachers show high motivation. The same percentages are observed in the evaluation of the final motivation that brings together the two dimensions studied. Regarding global teaching performance, 77.3% in the good category. It is concluded affirming low correlation with positive trend among the variables.

IntroductionThe period of adolescence is characterized by marked changes relevant to adult life. The goals of this study were (a) to analyze the psychometric properties of the physical self-concept questionnaire (PSC) in adolescents and (b) to develop percentiles for evaluation by age and sex.MethodsA descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in adolescents aged 11 to 17 years from an altitude region of Peru (3,812 m above sea level). The sample size was 1,263 schoolchildren (609 males and 654 females). The PSC was measured through the survey technique. The questionnaire proposed by Fox and Corbin (1989), composed of five dimensions (totaling 30 questions), was applied. Validity was assessed by means of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and reliability by means of internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha). Percentiles were calculated using the LMS method (lambda: skewness, median; M and S: coefficient of variation).Results and DiscussionIn the CFA, factor loadings (communalities) were satisfactory for the model. Values ranged from (0.30 to 0.60), in addition, the Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin sample adequacy test was 0.89, X2 = 3401.086 (gl: 395, p<0.00), CFI (0.898), RMSEA (0.078) and % variation 47%. The reliability values (Cronbach’s alpha) per question evidenced values from r = 0.80 to 0.81 and the total scale r = 0.81. Percentiles were calculated: p3, p5, p10, p15, p25, p50, p75, p80, p85, p90, and p95. This study concludes that the psychometric properties of the PSC questionnaire applied to adolescents living in an altitude region of Peru were valid and reliable. The proposed percentiles can be used to categorize and monitor PSC by age and sex. These results suggest their use and application in the school system.
