Resumen
La presente investigación buscó analizar la relación entre la motivación académica, las
estrategias metacognitivas, la autoeficacia y el rendimiento matemático en estudiantes de
secundaria e identificar si existían diferencias diferencias de género en las variables
mencionadas. Para lograr este objetivo, se tuvo como marco de referencia a la teoría de la
autodeterminación que propone diferentes tipos de motivación y el aprendizaje
autorregulado. De esta manera, la investigación contó con una muestra de 278 estudiantes de
4° y 5° de secundaria de una institución pública de Lima Metropolitana. En cuanto a la
medición de las variables, se emplearon instrumentos validados y adaptados al contexto de la
investigación y las notas de los estudiantes reportadas por la institución educativa. Los datos
fueron analizados mediante un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM) y pruebas de
comparación de medias. Los resultados evidenciaron que la motivación autónoma predice
positivamente tanto las estrategias metacognitivas como la autoeficacia, mientras que la
motivación controlada predice negativamente la autoeficacia. Asimismo, las estrategias
metacognitivas predicen de forma positiva la autoeficacia, y esta última fue predictora de
manera positiva del rendimiento matemático, junto con la desmotivación (en sentido
negativo). En cuanto a las diferencias de género, se encontraron diferencias significativas
solo en la motivación controlada que fue mayor en mujeres y desmotivación que fue mayor
en hombres, pero no en estrategias metacognitivas, autoeficacia ni rendimiento. Los hallazgos
resaltan la importancia de promover la motivación autónoma y estrategias metacognitivas en
el aula para fortalecer la percepción de competencia y el desempeño matemático de los
estudiantes.
The present research sought to analize the relationship between academic motivation, metacognitive strategies, self-efficacy and mathematics achievement in high school students and to identify if there were gender differences in the mentioned variables. To achieve this objective, the self-determination theory, which proposes different types of motivation and self-regulated learning, was used as a frame of reference. Thus, the research included a sample of 278 4th and 5th year high school students from a public institution in Metropolitan Lima. As for the measurement of the variables, validated instruments adapted to the context of the research and the students' grades reported by the educational institution were used. The data were analyzed using an structural equation model (SEM) and mean comparison tests. The results showed that autonomous motivation positively predicts both metacognitive strategies and self-efficacy, while controlled motivation negatively predicts self-efficacy. Likewise, metacognitive strategies positively predicted self-efficacy, and self-efficacy was a positive predictor of mathematics achievement, together with demotivation (negatively). As for gender differences, significant differences were found only in controlled motivation, which was higher in women, and demotivation, which was higher in men, but not in metacognitive strategies, self-efficacy or performance. The findings highlight the importance of promoting autonomous motivation and metacognitive strategies in the classroom to strengthen students' perception of competence and mathematics achievement.
