Abstract
La investigación fomenta el pensamiento crítico en estudiantes y desarrolla habilidades esenciales para su futuro profesional. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue determinar el impacto de la Estrategia de Aprendizaje Basado en Investigación en el desarrollo de competencias investigativas en estudiantes universitarios. El estudio utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo con diseño cuasiexperimental, involucrando a 37 participantes divididos en grupos experimental y control. Se aplicaron tres instrumentos para evaluar las competencias investigativas, una prueba de conocimiento, una rúbrica de evaluación y un cuestionario actitudinal en escala Likert. Tras un programa de intervención, se midieron nuevamente las competencias. Inicialmente, el 50% del grupo control y el 84% del experimental alcanzaban el nivel de desarrollado; posteriormente, el 58% del grupo control y el 100% del experimental lograron este nivel. Los resultados estadísticos (U = 0.0, Z = -4.870, p = 0.000) evidencian un impacto significativo de la estrategia en las competencias investigativas del grupo experimental.
Research fosters critical thinking in students and develops essential skills for their professional future. The objective of this research was to determine the impact of the Research-Based Learning Strategy on the development of research competencies in university students. The study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, involving 37 participants divided into experimental and control groups. Three instruments were applied to assess research competencies, a knowledge test, an evaluation rubric and an attitudinal questionnaire on a Likert scale. After an intervention program, the competencies were measured again. Initially, 50% of the control group and 84% of the experimental group reached the developed level; subsequently, 58% of the control group and 100% of the experimental group achieved this level. The statistical results (U = 0.0, Z = -4.870, p = 0.000) show a significant impact of the strategy on the research competencies of the experimental group.
