Abstract
Las funciones ejecutivas permiten el desarrollo de actividades de alta complejidad, siendo
fundamentales dentro de la vida académica para la percepción de la autoeficacia
académica y, por ende, el éxito académico de los estudiantes universitarios. Ambos temas
son relevantes en el aprendizaje, por lo que es necesario el aporte de evidencia sobre la
relación entre ambas variables. La presente investigación se realizó planteando como
objetivo determinar la relación entre las funciones ejecutivas y la autoeficacia académica
percibida en estudiantes universitarios. Participan 97 estudiantes universitarios cursando
los ciclos de estudios generales de universidades privadas pertenecientes a la ciudad de
Lima - Perú, 38 hombres (40%) y 59 mujeres (60%) de edades desde los 17 hasta los 24
años. Como reactivos se utilizan la escala EFECO en formato auto-reporte y la escala
EAPESA. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran que el desempeño tanto en funciones
ejecutivas como en autoeficacia académica percibida es en su mayoría de un nivel medio,
encontrando que un 55% de alumnos se ubica en este nivel en la variable funciones
ejecutivas, y un 54% de alumnos se ubica en este nivel en la variable autoeficacia
académica percibida. También se comprueba la hipótesis general, esto es, que existe una
correlación positiva y muy significativa entre las Funciones Ejecutivas y la Autoeficacia;
además, se comprueban las hipótesis específicas, encontrándose correlaciones positivas
en todas ellas. Sin embargo, es importante indicar que en la dimensión organización de
materiales la correlación es débil.
Executive functions allow the development of highly complex activities, being fundamental within academic life for the perception of academic self-efficacy and, therefore, the academic success of university students. Both topics are important in learning, so it is necessary to provide evidence on the relationship between both variables. The present investigation was carried out with the objective of determining the relationship between executive functions and perceived academic self-efficacy in university students. 97 university students participating in the general study cycles of private universities belonging to the city of Lima - Peru, 38 men (40%) and 59 women (60%) aged from 17 to 24 years. The EFECO scale in self-report format and the EAPESA scale were used as reagents. The results obtained show that the performance both in executive functions and in perceived academic self-efficacy is mostly of a medium level, finding that 55% of students are located at this level in the variable executive functions, and 54% of students are located at this level in the variable perceived academic selfefficacy. The general hypothesis, that there is a positive and highly significant correlation between Executive Functions and Self-efficacy, in confirmed. The specific hypotheses are also verified, finding positive correlations in all of them. However, it is important to indicate that in the material organization dimension the correlation is weak.
