Estructura factorial y propiedades psicométricas de la time management behavior scale (TMBS) en población universitaria colombiana

2017

Se investigó la estructura factorial de la Time Management Behavior Scale (TMBS) en universitarios colombianos. La gestión del tiempo es un importante predictor del logro estudiantil y clave para la disminución de la deserción universitaria. Participaron 494 estudiantes de primer año de nueve programas en dos universidades de la ciudad de Bogotá. Se comprueba una estructura multidimensional de cuatro subescalas que explicaron el 42.68 % de la varianza total. Se obtuvieron índices de consistencia interna por encima de 0.7 en tres factores y una fiabilidad global de 0.84. Coincidiendo con investigaciones previas, frente a los hombres, las mujeres obtienen puntuaciones superiores en dos de las…

B1 līmeņa rakstiskās angļu valodas apguvēju kļūdu analīze

2016

Valodas apguve ir sarežģīts, ilgstošs mācību process. Agrīnā bērnībā valodas apguve nāk dabiski, bērnam tiekot pakļautam valodas situācijām. Ir ticis pierādīts, ka spēja mācīties jaunu valodu bez apzinātas piepūles samazinās, sasniedzot pubertātes vecumu. Svešvalodu apguve drīzāk var tikt definēta kā apzināts mācīšanās process, kas reti rezultējas svešvalodas pārzināšanā kā dzimtās valodas, neskatoties uz mācīšanās spējām vai personīgo motivāciju. Kļūdas ir raksturīgas mācīšanās procesam, tās var būt dažādas gan iesācēju un elementārajā līmenī, gan arī pašā augstākajā. Šis pētījums koncentrējas uz problēmām angļu valodas apguvē. Pētījums veikts, izmantojot 9. klases skolnieku rakstiskās ese…

On the use and value of new media and how medical students assess their effectiveness in learning anatomy.

2004

The new media have become widely used tools in medical instruction today. But are they regarded as useful by students training to become medical doctors? What are students' most important criteria for a good CD-ROM or valuable Internet resources? To answer these questions, and to obtain definite data on the use of new media, we distributed a questionnaire to preclinical medical and dental students of the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany. The evaluation of 397 questionnaires demonstrates that 94.9% of the students use personal computers; 91.6% of the 85.8% who own a computer have access to the Internet. The Internet is used at least once a week by 70.1% of students for private…

50 Shades of Green: Insights into Personal Values and Worldviews as Drivers of Green Purchasing Intention, Behaviour, and Experience

2021

Despite the booming interest in determinants of green (i.e., sustainable) consumption, the psychological factors that influence pro-environmental consumption patterns are not yet fully understood. To answer this call, we developed and analysed a model that offers an integrative approach to sustainable consumption patterns by addressing the full palette of consumers’ personal value orientations. Specifically, we linked consumers’ egoistic, altruistic, and biospheric values at the personal level to pro-environmental purchasing intentions, behaviours, and experiences. Furthermore, we examined whether implicit beliefs about the balance between humanity and nature (i.e., worldviews) moderate the…
