Item “Las funciones ejecutivas y su relación con la autoeficacia en estudiantes universitarios”(Universdidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2020-03-01) Núñez Núñez, Alexis Mauricio; García Ramos, Diana Carolina Psi. Cl. Mg.The present study determined the relationship between executive functions and general self-efficacy in university students, constructs measured by the NEUROPSI Test and General Self-efficacy Scale (EAG) in a sample of 110 university students of the clinical psychology career, with an age range between 17 and 27 years old, were selected under exclusion and inclusion criteria. The results showed that most of the university students present a level of normal executive functioning, no people with severe functioning levels were found, nor with high normal functioning levels, they did not show significant differences between men and women. More than half of the investigated population presented a medium level of self-efficacy, followed by high and low level, the highest scores were in men. For the verification of the correlation hypothesis of the executive functions and the level of general self-efficacy a correlation statistic was used, in this case, given the breach of the assumption of normality, a non-parametric test, the Spearman rho, will be applied. Once the data were analyzed, it was concluded that there is no correlation between the general scores of executive functions and general self-efficacy, but the capacity for inhibition, planning and action with the general perceived self-efficacy were positively associated; Low positive correlation between the formation of categories and phonological fluency and low negative between the same variable and the interference time Stroop.
