    Psychometric properties of the critical thinking disposition scale in Peruvian adolescents
    Background The disposition to critical thinking equips students with the capacity for objective analysis, informed decision-making, and problem-solving. Furthermore, it enhances intellectual autonomy and adaptability within academic contexts. Objectives To assess the psychometric properties of the Critical Thinking Disposition Scale in Peruvian adolescents. Methodology The psychometric adaptation process was implemented to evaluate the relevance, clarity, and comprehension of the items through expert judgment and pilot testing. Utilizing a sample of 499 students aged 10–17 years (M = 15.8, SD = 1.30), a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was conducted. Results The scale demonstrated validity and reliability, yielding optimal fit and reliability indices that support its unidimensional structure. Conclusion The validation of the Critical Thinking Disposition Scale in the Peruvian context provides a valuable instrument for assessing and fostering the propensity of Peruvian students to employ critical thinking skills, with implications for professional practice and educational policy. Furthermore, the study is significant because it shows that all factor values were greater than 0.40, which represents that the items contribute significantly to the evaluation of adolescents’ disposition to critical thinking.

    Design and validation of the Brand Personality Scale in Tourist Destinations
    The new modality caused by COVID-19 has significantly affected tourism, from the decrease in demand and the deterioration of facilities due to lack of budget to the point of becoming unattractive. In response to this, the objective of this research work is to design and validate a scale to measure Brand Personality in Tourist Destinations (BPTD). The results were structured in three phases. In the first phase, an exhaustive search of the bibliography and first version of the instrument were generated. Moreover, a panel of 12 professionals between academics and managers was held, who evaluated the features and content validation by a panel of 7 experts. In the second phase, data collection was carried out with the participation of 998 tourists. In the third phase, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was carried out, obtaining a KMO of 0.979 and a p-value of 0.000. The total explained variance of the 21 items grouped in three dimensions represents 87.27%. In the confirmatory analysis, χ2 = 921.57, p = 0.000, RMR = 0.069, GFI = 0.917, AGFI = 0.829, CFI = 0.980, TLI = 0.976, NFI = 0.975, IFI = 0.980 and RMSA = 0.065, with an appropriate internal consistency (performance: α = 0.984; social innovation α = 0.982; honesty α = 0.964). Composite reliability was CR > 0.70 and convergent validity was AVE > 0.5. In conclusion, the values imply an acceptable adjustment, for which the model is adequate, and the scale is valid to be applied in tourism.

    Emotional fatigue, academic engagement, and satisfaction with studies during the return to post-pandemic university attendance
    Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly transformed various sectors, including higher education, exposing structural weaknesses and fostering the adoption of innovative teaching methods. This situation has created the need to understand how these changes have affected the academic satisfaction, academic engagement, and mental well-being of university students during the return to in-person education at universities. Methods In this explanatory study, 1,321 Peruvian university students (52.1% women) aged between 18 and 35 years old ( M = 20.16, SD = 3.04) participated. Participants were selected through a non-probabilistic convenience sampling method, recruited from the 3 regions of Peru (88.7% from the highlands, 76.2% from private universities), from faculties such as business sciences, humanities and education, engineering, and health sciences. Data were collected using the Emotional Exhaustion Scale (EES), the Brief Scale of Satisfaction with Studies (BSSS), and the Academic Engagement Scale (UWES S9). Results The model relating the study variables showed an adequate fit: χ 2 (4) = 31.5, p < 0.001, CFI = 0.986, RMSEA = 0.072, SRMR = 0.017. The hypotheses were supported, showing the effect on satisfaction with studies both from emotional exhaustion, β = −0.11, p < 0.001, and from academic engagement, β = 0.61, p < 0.001. Additionally, a 43% variance was explained in satisfaction with studies. Conclusion This study evidence that, in the post-pandemic context, emotional exhaustion is a negative predictor of academic satisfaction, while academic engagement is positively associated with it. These findings suggest the need for educational strategies that mitigate emotional exhaustion and promote academic engagement to improve student satisfaction and well-being in the new educational normality.

    Abstract* Background The digital age has brought numerous technological advances that have transformed our way of living and relating. Among them, Social media have revolutionized how we communicate and share information. However, there is a silent danger behind this seemingly harmless tool: Social media addiction. For this reason, the objective of this re-search was to determine if emotional intelligence and self-esteem predict addiction to Social media in Peruvian university students. Methods Therefore, a cross-sectional predictive design study was developed, in which 289 Peruvian university students participated voluntarily, whose ages fluctuated between 23.61 years with a standard deviation of 5.88 years, of which 54.06% were female and 45.94% were male. In addition, to measure the variables, the Wong-Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale – EAR, and the Social media addiction questionnaire (ARS) were used. Results Linear regression results show that self-esteem (SELF) is the strongest predictor across all models, with beta coefficients of -0.293 for Social Media Obsession (SMO), -0.225 for Lack of Control, and -0.153 (LAU) for Excessive Social Media Use (USO). Regarding the emotional intelligence dimensions, it is observed that Appraisal of Own Emo-tions (SEA) and Use of Own Emotions (UEO) have weak negative effects on SMO addiction, with beta coefficients ranging from -0.072 to -0.136. Conclusions It is concluded that the models explain 17.2% of the variance in SMO, 14.8% in LAU, and 9.2% in USO. These values suggest that, while self-esteem and emotional intelligence influence SMO addiction, other additional factors may also play an important role.

    Unconventional distractions such as electronic devices are stimuli that divert attention during study tasks, especially those related to scientific research exercises in undergraduate education. In the absence of precise instruments to measure this phenomenon, the objective was to adapt and validate the Scale of Distractions in Research Tasks among Peruvian university students. The study is classified as an instrumental cross-sectional design, involving 1,003 university students aged between 18 and 47 years ( M = 20.93, SD = 4.30) from three regions of Peru (Coast, Highlands, and Jungle), selected through convenience sampling. Content validity was assessed using Aiken’s V coefficient, internal structure was examined through confirmatory factor analysis, and reliability was measured using the Omega coefficient. The results indicated that the judges positively evaluated the 5 items (V > 0.70), the internal structure confirmed the original model with satisfactory fit indices ( χ 2 (2) = 5.47, p = 0.187, CFI = 0.998, RMSEA = 0.023, and SRMR = 0.010), and the reliability was acceptable (ω = 0.86). In conclusion, the Peruvian version of the Scale of Distractions in Research Tasks has demonstrated to be a valid and reliable instrument, characterized by its brevity and a unifactorial structure.

    INTRODUCCIÓN. Es crucial invertir en el desarrollo de competencias profesionales con un enfoque integral, no solo beneficiará al personal de enfermería, sino también optimiza la calidad del cuidado que se presta. OBJETIVO. Determinar la relación entre las competencias oncológicas, habilidades gerenciales y satisfacción en enfermeros(as) que laboran en una institución especializada. METODOLOGÍA. Enfoque cuantitativo, tipo predictivo de corte transversal y correlacional, siendo una muestra de 309 profesionales de enfermería que laboran en el área de oncología, se aplicó 3 escalas: “Competencias oncológicas, habilidades gerenciales y satisfacción con una escala de Likert. Los instrumentos fueron validados siendo la confiabilidad de 0.98, 0.97 y 0.96 Alfa de Cronbach respectivamente. RESULTADOS. La mayoría de los profesionales de enfermería obtuvieron niveles medio y bajo en competencias oncológicas y habilidades gerenciales. La satisfacción fue de nivel alto. Para análisis de correlación muestra medidas de asociación para las variables con puntuaciones que no se ajustan a una distribución normal, con valores de 0,704; 0,475; 0,568; los cuales indican una correlación positiva alta y moderada pero significativa (p > 0,01). Además, el análisis de regresión lineal múltiple, demuestra que las competencias oncológicas y las habilidades gerenciales explican el 47,10% de la varianza total de satisfacción. Se concluye que las competencias oncológicas y las habilidades gerenciales deben ser entrenadas para elevar la calidad de los servicios que se brinda, el cual es relevante para mejorar los beneficios y la satisfacción. El desarrollo de competencias oncológicas y habilidades adquiridas de enfermeros no se relacionan con la satisfacción por diversos factores, relacionados a la estabilidad laboral, ingresos económicos, carencia de recursos humanos e insumos, entre otros, son limitantes en el indicador de satisfacción.

    Validation of measurement scale for technostress in Peruvian university students
    Stress has become one of the major health issues worldwide, and the mandatory integration of technologies into the educational environment has exacerbated this problem. This situation affects both teachers and students, who often lack the necessary knowledge to use these tools effectively, putting their mental health and emotional well-being at risk across various areas. Over the years, numerous studies have been conducted on technostress in both workplace and educational contexts, analyzing its causes and consequences, as well as psychometric evaluations of instruments related to technological adaptation. This study presents an instrumental design and cross-sectional approach, with 814 Peruvian university students voluntarily participating, consisting of both sexes (451 females; 55%) aged between 18 and 36 years ( M = 25.2, SD = 5.12). The instrument used was the Technostress Questionnaire for University Students (TS4US), initially developed for Chinese university students, which underwent a cultural adaptation process, expert judgment, and pilot testing. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the TS4US versions revealed that the 11-item version maintained the three original dimensions, showing an excellent fit with indices of CFI = 0.982, TLI = 0.975, RMSEA = 0.007, and SRMR = 0.02, along with high internal consistency, with Alpha and Omega coefficients greater than 0.86. These results confirm that the TS4US is a valid and reliable tool for measuring technostress in Peruvian university students.

    Design and validation of a scale of motivation for scientific publication in Peruvian university professors (MoSCPU-UP)
    The study’s objective was to design and validate a motivation scale for scientific publication in Peruvian university professors (MoSCPU-UP). Instrumental research where a scale of 13 items distributed in 2 factors (Intentional State and Commitment-will) was designed and validated. The sample comprised 546 university professors (62.1% male) aged 22 to 67 ( M = 45.05 and DS = 9.32). The sample was separated into two subgroups for the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. For analyzing the validity of evidence based on the content, the Aiken V coefficient was used; for construct validity, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was used. Reliability was studied through Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. The results show that the items received a favorable evaluation (Aiken’s V > 0.70). Goodness of fit indices were adequate (IFC = 0.93, TLI = 0.92, and RMSEA = 0.08). Likewise, the correlation between factors 1 and 2 was significant ( p < 0.05). Evidence of validity based on the relationship with other variables with measures of professional self-efficacy is significant and acceptable reliability ( α = 0.91; 95% CI = 0.89–0.92). In conclusion, the MoSCPU-UP scale is an instrument that reports evidence of validity and reliability.

    The crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has generated new challenges for regular basic education teachers, who, day by day, interact with students and constitute a significant part of the student's development. These new circumstances have affected teachers, raising their stress levels and affecting their skills. In this context, this study aims to determine the influence of social support and general self-efficacy on subjective discomfort in Ecuadorian regular basic education teachers. The methodology used was based on the predictive design in which 311 teachers participated, 230 women and 81 men. The selected instruments were the Duke-UNK-11 Functional Social Support Questionnaire, the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GAS) and the Kessler Subjective Discomfort Scale-10. The results showed that the Social support variable significantly influences subjective discomfort, showing that teachers who have high levels of social support show lower levels of subjective discomfort. It is concluded that social support is a predictor of subjective discomfort in Ecuadorian teachers of basic education. Received: 23 May 2022 / Accepted: 28 October 2022 / Published: 5 November 2022
