Factors related to academic performance in Veterinary Medicine students

Factors related to academic performance in Veterinary Medicine students

A research work was carried out with veterinary medicine students from two universities in Lima, Peru, to determine factors that influence academic performance and the relationship between family functioning and academic performance. For this, 392 students were randomly surveyed (173 from the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos and 219 from the Universidad Científica del Sur). For data collection, a 20-question survey was applied based on the Family Cohesion and Adaptability Assessment Scale (FACES III). The results showed that the final average grades of the courses of the total population of students ranged from 12.9 to 13.2, with passing grades in both universities. Academic performance did not have a significant relationship with family types according to Olson's Circumflex Model; however, it was possible to establish significant differences in the final averages of the grades depending on the university of origin, academic year and by category, which are the result of the combinations between cohesion and adaptability. It can be concluded that family functioning is not related to the academic performance of the university students of the two universities.

Se encuestaron aleatoriamente a 392 estudiantes (173 de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos y 219 de la Universidad Científica del Sur). Para la recolección de datos se aplicó una encuesta de 20 preguntas basado en la Escala de Evaluación de Cohesión y Adaptabilidad Familiar (FACES III). Los resultados mostraron que las notas promedio finales de los cursos del total de la población de estudiantes estuvieron en un rango de 12.9 a 13.2, siendo calificaciones aprobatorias en ambas universidades. El rendimiento académico no tuvo relación significativa con los tipos de familia según el Modelo Circumflejo de Olson; sin embargo, se pudo establecer diferencias significativas en los promedios finales de las notas en función de la universidad de procedencia, año académico y por categoría, las cuales son el resultado de las combinaciones entre cohesión y adaptabilidad. Se puede concluir que el funcionamiento familiar no se relaciona con el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes universitarios de las dos universidades.   Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Medicina Veterinaria 2021-02-26 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/article application/pdf https://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/veterinaria/article/view/19509 10.15381/rivep.v32i1.19509 Revista de Investigaciones Veterinarias del Perú; Vol. 32 No. 1 (2021); e19509 Revista de Investigaciones Veterinarias del Perú; Vol. 32 Núm. 1 (2021); e19509 1682-3419 1609-9117 spa https://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/veterinaria/article/view/19509/16425 Derechos de autor 2021 Sara Pizarro R., Gilberto Santillán A., Jorge Vilela V., Andrés Hildebrandt L. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
