Objective: To implement a program for the prevention of STI/HIV-AIDS in students from the Universidad Central Marta Abreu de las Villas. Methodology: Mixed study, Design of Concurrent Triangulation (DITRIAC) with qualitative predominance. The sample selection made in an intentional-non-probabilistic way for a total of 47 students. The techniques used are official document review, semi-structured interview, survey and group interview. Results: The implementation of the proposal brings benefits to those involved by raising their perception of risk to unprotected sex. The informative-valuable dimension strengthened. From the affective-motivational dimension, a position of rejection for risk behavior achieved. Discussion: In similar studies, there was agreement on the presence of risk behavior in sexual relations due to non-use of condoms, determined by ignorance and false myths about condom use. As in the current research, knowledge about STIs increased in the rest of the interventions reviewed. Conclusions: The presence of risk behaviors related to unprotected sexual practices identified as the main health problem. The scarce knowledge about the consequences of unprotected sexual practice diagnosed as an educational need. A Health Program implemented to contribute to the prevention of STI-HIV/AIDS with satisfactory results.
This paper presents the results of an investigation whose objective was to analyze the life skills developed by the participants of the Business Laboratory of the commercial technical educational institutions of the department of Boyaca (Colombia). It is a qualitative research, with a socio-critical approach, where learning is seen as a significant process, which involves aspects of daily life and deepens social values, from the observation of students in their natural context, with a view to create a liberating and emancipating pedagogy. The participants are students from commercial technical educational institutions that have a Business Laboratory and have participated in several departmental meetings of Business Laboratories. The information was collected through an open group survey and experiences of the students participating in the thirteenth and fifteenth meetings and reports from the UPTC graduates of Business Administration. The results showed the development of emotional, social and cognitive skills, expressed in empathy, conflict management, decision making, assertive communication and critical thinking, among others. Therefore, the development of life skills in students of commercial technical secondary education is a task of educational institutions, based on the creation of their own didactics and adequate scenarios to create a business reality that allows the verification of theories
This article focuses on the need to characterize the Socio-emotional Competencies (CSE) of the Bachelor of Tourism students at the University of Camaguey, from the use of new alternatives directed to this end. In this research, the Inventory of Socio-emotional Competencies (ICSE), by Mikulic et al. (2015) is used, based on its adjustment to young Cuban university students with a Bachelor of Tourism, as this is a valuable instrument that allows a comprehensive approach to this construct. To meet these objectives, the linguistic and cultural adjustment of the same is exhibited, through the judgment of experts and, parallel to this, the application of the ICSE to the pilot group. Subsequently, the preliminary analysis of the psychometric properties of the ICSE is carried out, using IBM SPSS Statistics 20, to arrive at the characterization of the Socio-emotional Competences of university students. The results show how the ICSE adjusted to young Cuban university students is a feasible instrument for the evaluation of Socio-emotional Competences in Tourism students. Likewise, it highlights the agreement between various researchers, such as the case of Ramirez et al. (2019), Bisquerra & Pena (2007), among others, which highlight the need for the development of Socio-emotional Competences in the organizational and tourism sphere, as well as the search for new strategies for its evaluation. It can be concluded that from the characterization carried out, significant deficiencies are found in the Sociomocional Competences of the university students evaluated.
Introduction: dependence on physical exercise has been presented as a psychopathological entity with its own identity and progress has been made in the knowledge of the associated factors. The frequency of physical activity and dissatisfaction with body image are two of the factors that have been analyzed. It has been reported that, a higher frequency, greater dependence. In this study, the effect of satisfaction with muscular appearance on the relationship between the frequency of exercise and dependence on physical exercise in male users of gyms is analyzed. Materials and method: an ex post facto cross-sectional investigation was conducted with a quantitative correlational approach (187 zero-order correlations and partial correlations) with 187 men who regularly attended the gyms. The Exercise Dependence Scale Revised and the with Muscular Appearance Satisfaction Scale. Results: the correlation coefficient value between the frequency of exercise and the dependence on physical exercise decreased from r = 0.223 to r = 0.159 and the p-value lost its statistical significance (from p <0.001 to p = 0.059) when the effect was controlled of satisfaction with muscular appearance. Discussion: the heuristic clinic to distinguish the phases of addiction and the theory of self-determination applied to exercise highlight the relevance of the motivations in the development of dependence. Satisfaction with muscular appearance is discussed in this context. Conclusions: the correlation between the frequency of exercise and the dependence on specific exercise when controlling satisfaction with muscular appearance.
El noviazgo se considera una etapa de gran importancia para predecir la violencia a largo plazo en edades adultas, es por ello que la comunidad cientifica se ha preocupado por identificar los diversos factores de riesgo que podrian asociarse con un incremento en la probabilidad de implicarse en relaciones de noviazgo violentas. Por tal motivo el presente articulo pretende identificar la relacion existente entre la aceptacion de la violencia, los celos y el sexismo hacia la mujer o el hombre con la violencia en el noviazgo. Participaron 506 estudiantes universitarios mexicanos, los cuales colaboraron contestando la Escala de Aceptacion de la Violencia, la Escala de Sexismo Ambivalente hacia las Mujeres (ASI) y Hombres (AMI), la Escala de Celos y el Conflict in Adolescent Dating Relationships Inventory (CADRI). Los datos arrojados se analizaron mediante estadistica inferencial para poder establecer las diferencias entre sexos (Prueba de U de Mann-Whitney ) asi como la asociacion entre las variables (coeficiente de correlacion de Spearman ). Entre los resultados se destaca que los hombres, en general, obtuvieron mayores puntuaciones en las escalas implementadas, existio una mayor presencia de violencia psicologica asi como tambien hubo bidireccionalidad de la violencia en ambos sexos. Se discuten los resultados desde una perspectiva de genero inclusiva.
