RESUMEN: Se identificaron los estilos de aprendizaje de alumnos de dos carreras de la Universidad de Concepción, Chile, provenientes de áreas distintas, Ingeniería Civil Biomédica y Tecnología Médica, para determinar la eventual correlación entre los estilos de aprendizaje y género con el rendimiento académico en el curso de Fisiología-Fisiopatología, asignatura de carácter troncal en ambas carreras.
Como instrumento de diagnóstico del estilo de aprendizaje se utilizó el Cuestionario Honey-Alonso de Estilos de Aprendizaje - CHAEA y el rendimiento académico se basó en el registro de las Actas de las calificaciones finales obtenidas en la asignatura de Fisiología-Fisiopatología.Resultados: se estableció una correlación significativa entre el rendimiento académico y el estilo Teórico en los alumnos de Ingeniería Civil Biomédica y con el estilo Reflexivo en los alumnos de Tecnología Médica. Al comparar hombres y mujeres, los estudiantes de ambas carreras no muestran diferencias significativas ni en los estilos de aprendizajes ni en las calificaciones promedio de la asignatura Fisiología- Fisiopatología.De los resultados se puede concluir que algunos estilos de aprendizaje pueden eventualmente incidir en el rendimiento académico de los alumnos, pero son independientes del género.
LEARNING STYLES, GENDER AND ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE
ABSTRACT: We identified the learning styles of students of two races from different areas of the University of Concepción, Chile: Civil Engineering Biomedical and Medical Technology, to determine any correlation between learning styles and gender with academic achievement in the Physiology-Pathophysiology subject, core course of study in both races. To measure the learning styles we used Honey-Alonso Learning Styles questionnaire (CHAEA) and the academic outcome was based on the ratings obtained in the course of Physiology-Pathophysiology. Results: We established a significant correlation between academic achievement and Theoretical learning style in Civil Engineering Biomedical students and Reflexive learning style in Medical Technology students. When comparing men and women, students of both races show no significant differences in learning styles or in the average scores of Physiology-Pathophysiology course. With these results we can conclude that some learning styles may eventually affect the academic achievement of students, but are independent of gender.
