“…Consequently, its use allows the theoretical framework of student dropout to be understood from a holistic viewpoint, integrating the perspectives of the academic community, state and social agents. With this integration of perspectives, the study of dropout has been carried out from a multidisciplinary orientation in which the sociological, interactionist, organisational, psychological and economic approach are highlighted (Lázaro Alvarez et al, 2020), and have resulted in the analysis of variables intrinsic and extrinsic to the student, categorising them into four determinants: individual, socioeconomic, academic and institutional (Fonseca and García, 2016;Barragán and González, 2017;Donoso and Schiefelbein, 2021;Guzmán et al, 2021).…”

Dropout in Rural Higher Education: A Systematic Review

Student dropout in higher education has been of great interest to the academic community, state and social actors over the last three decades, due to the various effects that this event has on the student, the family, higher education institutions, and the state itself. It is recognised that dropout at this level of education is extremely complex due to its multi-causality which is expressed in the existing relationship in its explanatory variables associated with the students, their socioeconomic and academic conditions, as well as the characteristics of the educational institutions. Thus, the aim of this article was to identify the individual, socioeconomic, academic, and institutional explanatory variables involved in student dropout in rural populations, based on a synthesis of the evidence available in the SCOPUS database. In order to achieve it, a mixed systematic review was defined under the PRISMA 2020 method. The analysis was approached in two stages; the first concerned the identification of the documents and the conformation of the sample, where 21 documents were distinguished for effectively dealing with dropout in rural higher education; and the second corresponded to the procedures defined for the development of the bibliometric analysis and synthesis of the information found in the documents. The results showed the distribution of studies by country, years of publication, the categorisation of the documents in SCOPUS, their classification by type and the methodologies used in the development of the studies analysed, as well as the variables that have been addressed in previous research. In this way, it is concluded that the results of the studies are not generalisable, either because of the size of the sample or because of the marked social asymmetries that exist in some countries, which can make the findings lack significance; on the other hand, the interest in research on variables associated with individual and academic determinants to explain rural student dropout is highlighted. In addition, some future research lines which can be addressed as a complement to the current view of the dropout event in rural higher education were identified.

“…Es un constructo opuesto al burnout, que viene a ser un estado mental negativo y de pérdida de interés por una actividad (Maslach et al, 2001;Salanova et al, 2000). Un estudiante que no muestre engagement tiene muchas posibilidades de fracasar y de abandonar los estudios que ha iniciado (Fonseca & García, 2016).…”

“…estado de bienestar cuando se enfrentan al proceso formativo, cuentan con condiciones favorables para lograr las metas educativas (Carmona-Halty et al, 2017). Este pensamiento positivo que está asociado al engagement aporta la energía y la disposición para ser eficaces y afrontar el proceso de aprendizaje de forma satisfactoria, reduciendo de este modo el riesgo de la desconexión académica y el abandono de los estudios (Fonseca & García, 2016).…”

La actitud y la implicación con la que los estudiantes universitarios de grado afrontan su proceso formativo puede incidir de manera significativa en los resultados académicos que obtengan. La relación que puede darse entre una baja implicación y la posibilidad de fracasar o abandonar los estudios ha llevado a plantear esta investigación, donde se profundiza en la relación entre el engagement y el rendimiento académico. El engagement hace referencia a la sensación de bienestar del alumnado respecto a un desafío relacionado con su proceso formativo. El alumnado que cursa estudios universitarios está expuesto a vivir situaciones que les hacen estar más o menos comprometidos con su proceso de aprendizaje, pudiéndoles llevar a obtener mejores o peores resultados académicos. Este estudio de corte cuantitativo ex-post-facto, que se llevó a cabo con una muestra de 564 estudiantes de primer y segundo curso de los tres grados de la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad de La Laguna (España), tiene como objetivo analizar la relación entre el engagement académico y el rendimiento en los estudios. Los resultados revelan que el alumnado con mayores puntuaciones en las distintas dimensiones estructurales del engagement académico (vigor, dedicación y absorción) presenta mayores calificaciones en las asignaturas que cursa. La discusión del estudio se centra en la necesidad de planificar estrategias promotoras del engagement académico para fortalecer tanto las trayectorias de adaptación y permanencia en la titulación como la obtención de mejores resultados académicos en el alumnado universitario.

“…In addition, populations composed of ethnic minorities or specific groups, such as the handicapped and high-performance athletes, are at a higher risk of dropout. Belonging to an ethnic group implies a language barrier (with mother tongue different from the official), and discrimination experiencies and prejudice that has negative repercussions on social adaptation (Fonseca and García, 2016). "Family size", "type of housing", "socio-educational level of parents" and "presence of difficulties" are the most influential family variables.…”

University dropout is one of the main problems of the Spanish university system due to its high rates. The latest report issued by the Ministry of Science and Innovation (MICINN, 2020) shows that more than 30% of students drop out of an undergraduate degree program. In order to explore the phenomenon, in line with the scientific literature, we have focused on identifying personal and family variables associated with university dropout. Using an ex post facto, quantitative, descriptive and causal design methodology, we observed significant relationships between the dependent variable “completion of university degree” and the independent variables “age”, “marital status” and “number of siblings”. In agreement with other researches (Belloc et al, 2010; Diaz Peralta, 2008; Lizarte Simon, 2017) we conclude that university dropout is a multicausal phenomenon that needs to be fully understood. This will allow to maximize the use of resources allocated to higher education and optimize university access, permanence and quality policies.
