Results: Self-esteem was associated with all quality-of-life facets: sensory skills [β… Show more

“…Convergent validity was verified through Spearman’s correlation coefficient between the OPQoL-brief score and selected scales (GDS-15, GAI, SOC, RSES) and social support. We hypothesized that the QoL (OPQoL-brief) correlates negatively with anxiety [ 33 ] and depression [ 33 35 ] and correlates positively with sense of coherence [ 36 , 37 ] and self-esteem [ 38 ]. Hendl [ 39 ] distinguishes the strength of the relationship association according to the value of the correlation coefficient “ r ” as follows: weak dependence ( r = 0.1–0.3), medium dependence ( r = 0.3–0.7), and strong dependence ( r = 0.7–1).…”

“…La investigación se desarrolló desde un enfoque interpretativo -cualitativo (Sandín, 2003) con un diseño fenomenológicohermenéutico ya que se centró en las experiencias vividas de los sujetos (Flick, 2015;Packer, 2013;van Manen, 2003). La primera etapa pretendió acceder a la experiencia de los casos por medio de entrevistas semiestructuradas.…”

“…Estas asignaciones tienen como finalidad regular las habilidades y motivaciones del cuerpo académico (Mishel, 1973;Escobar-Jiménez, 2022). Esta construcción queda manifestada en la teoría de la identidad propuesta por Stryker (2002), la cual comienza por una construcción de la autoestima, autoeficiencia y autenticidad (Stets y Burke, 2014;Vitório de Souza et al, 2022). Se establece una relación entre lo activo y lo prescriptivo, ya que los sujetos en un plano profesional responden a dimensiones de docencia, gestión, vinculación e investigación y desde un plano personal a una vida íntima y familiar.…”
