Neuropsychological processes and meaningful learning in Physical Education studentsBarra lateral del artículo
Contenido principal del artículo
El aprendizaje significativo establece que, el conocimiento nuevo se integra de manera sustancial con la estructura cognitiva previa del estudiante cuando existe una disposición favorable y los materiales presentan relevancia lógica. La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación entre los procesos neuropsicológicos y el aprendizaje significativo en estudiantes de la Escuela Profesional de Educación Física de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. Se adoptó un enfoque cuantitativo con diseño no experimental, transversal y descriptivo-correlacional, y una muestra de 90 estudiantes. Los resultados evidenciaron que los participantes se ubicaron en niveles positivos en el 82.2 % respecto al procesos neuropsicológicos y en el 83.4 % en cuanto al aprendizaje significativo. Además, se encontraron asociaciones importantes entre ambas variables y todas sus respectivas dimensiones. En conclusión, se confirmó que existe una relación estadísticamente significativa, fuerte y positiva entre los procesos neuropsicológicos y el aprendizaje significativo.
Meaningful learning posits that new knowledge is substantially integrated with the student's prior cognitive structure when there is a favorable disposition and the materials are logically relevant. This research aimed to determine the relationship between neuropsychological processes and meaningful learning in students of the Professional School of Physical Education at the National University of San Marcos. A quantitative approach with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and descriptive-correlational design was adopted, with a sample of 90 students. The results showed that 82.2% of the participants were at positive levels with respect to neuropsychological processes and 83.4% with respect to meaningful learning. Furthermore, significant associations were found between both variables and all their respective dimensions. In conclusion, a statistically significant, strong, and positive relationship between neuropsychological processes and meaningful learning was confirmed.
