Abstract
CORDOVA-LEON, Karen; FLORES-VARGAS, Catalina; GOMEZ-VARGAS, Jocelyn and PENA-SOTO, Camila. Resilience in Chilean university health science students in the context of telesimulation. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2024, vol.27, n.1, pp.13-19. Epub Apr 04, 2024. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.271.1318.
Introduction.
The purpose of this work was to know the level of resilience in a pandemic context in a sample of undergraduate students of health sciences, and how it behaves in tele-simulation scenarios. The study had a quantitative approach, with observational design, cross-sectional temporality and prospective.
Subjects and methods.
We included 192 students belonging to 5 careers in health sciences, whose ages ranged between 20 and 49 years. To measure the variable of interest, the resilience questionnaire adapted to 44 items with Likert-type scaling responses was used.
Results.
The results show high levels of resilience in careers with study programs that include tele-simulation and the differences between each of these careers.
Conclusions.
It is suggested to expand the line of research in other situational contexts and intervention of teaching-learning methodologies, to enhance the adaptation processes of health students and evaluate expected competencies of the graduation profile, directly related to their performance in their professional work.
