Impact of anxiety on the development of power skills in university students of business administrationContenido principal del artículo
La investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar la relación entre la ansiedad académica y el desarrollo de power skills en estudiantes de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Administración de la Universidad Nacional del Centro del Perú. El estudio se desarrolló bajo un enfoque cuantitativo, de nivel descriptivo-correlacional y diseño no experimental de corte transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por estudiantes universitarios, a quienes se aplicaron instrumentos estandarizados para medir la ansiedad académica y cinco dimensiones de power skills. El análisis de datos incluyó estadística descriptiva y modelamiento de ecuaciones estructurales mediante SmartPLS. Los resultados evidenciaron una relación negativa, significativa y de alta magnitud entre la ansiedad académica y el desarrollo de las power skills, observándose efectos diferenciados según cada dimensión, con mayor impacto en la mentalidad abierta y empatía. Se concluye que la ansiedad académica constituye un factor limitante para el desarrollo de competencias transversales clave, lo que resalta la necesidad de estrategias institucionales integrales orientadas al fortalecimiento del bienestar psicológico y la formación profesional.
The objective of the research was to analyze the relationship between academic anxiety and the development of power skills in students at the Faculty of Management Sciences at the National University of Central Peru. The study was conducted using a quantitative, descriptive-correlational approach and a non-experimental cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of university students, who were given standardized instruments to measure academic anxiety and five dimensions of power skills. Data analysis included descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling using SmartPLS. The results showed a significant, high-magnitude negative relationship between academic anxiety and the development of power skills, with different effects observed for each dimension, with the greatest impact on open-mindedness and empathy. It is concluded that academic anxiety is a limiting factor for the development of key cross-cutting skills, highlighting the need for comprehensive institutional strategies aimed at strengthening psychological well-being and professional training.
