- Comparison of perceived achievement of complex thinking competency among american, european, and asian university students(2025) Vázquez Parra, José Carlos; Lis Gutiérrez, Jenny Paola; Henao Rodriguez, Linda Carolina; George Reyes, Carlos Enrique; Tramon Pregnan, Claudia Lorena; Río Urenda, Susana Del; B. Chio, Ma Esther; Tariq, RasikhDespite the growing focus of educational institutions on students’ practical abilities beyond theoretical knowledge, the perception that students have of their competencies is crucial for their effective application in professional contexts. Accordingly, this paper reports a study of 435 university students attending ten universities in eight countries in the Americas (Chile, Colombia, Mexico), Asia (Pakistan and the Philippines), and Europe (Spain, Finland, and Serbia). The goal was to measure their perceptions of their achievement of complex thinking competency and its sub-competencies. The intention was to identify how cultural, educational, and socioeconomic differences among countries account for the variances in the students’ self-assessment of competencies, impacting their professional preparedness. The study focused on the competency of complex thinking, considering its critical importance in solving current environmental problems. The analysis employed the non-parametric Brown–Forsythe statistical test and Bonferroni correction, given the non-normality and heteroscedasticity of the data. It was found that (i) there is no statistically significant difference by gender; (ii) there are statistically significant differences in all types of thinking per country, geographical area (continent), and Human Development Index (HDI).
- Competency-based learning: an approach integrating the domains of complex thinking competency in a group of mexican students(Cherkas Global University Press, 2023) Cruz Sandoval, Marco; Vázquez Parra, José Carlos; Carlos Arroyo, Martina; Medina Vidal, Adriana; https://ror.org/03ayjn504; Molchanova, Violetta S.One characteristic of competency-based education is the integration of knowledge, attitudes, and skills that enable individuals to make better decisions and face the challenges of their professional demands. Given this, universities must develop training models that contribute to this integration; otherwise, they cannot ensure that their students are perceived as genuinely competent. Therefore, this article aims to report in depth how the acquisition and development of the competency of complex thinking were configured in a group of students at a Mexican university with a competency-based educational model to corroborate the integral development of necessary cognition, attitudes, and skills considering the gender variable. Based on a multivariate descriptive statistical analysis, this study sought to identify particular characteristics of the sample to understand the acquisition process and student perception of their competency and subcompetencies considering the development of their various components, knowledge, and domains. In conclusion, although the results show that a moderately balanced perception of development has been achieved, there are still areas of opportunity in some aspects, as in the case of the procedural component, especially among female students. In general, the population does not perceive that the knowledge and attitudes they have developed allow them to develop useful processes or skills in professional practice, which may affect their confidence to lead projects or even enter the labor market once they graduate.
- Social entrepreneurship and complex thinking: A bibliometric study(MDPI, 2022-10-14) Vázquez Parra, José Carlos; Cruz Sandoval, Marco Antonio; Carlos Arroyo, Martina; Institute for the Future of Education; Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey; Nakamura, Hiroki; Masaharu, Okada; Ashir, Ahmed; Nuren, Abedin; Hiroshi, HoshinoThis article presents the results of a bibliometric study that aimed to identify academic publications that considered the relationship between social entrepreneurship and the competency of complex thinking and its sub-competencies. The intention is to create a theoretical horizon that provides a complete overview of the current academic correlation between both competencies to identify areas of opportunity for new studies. Methodologically, we reviewed the Scopus and Web of Science databases under the PRISMA protocol. R, RStudio, and Bibliometrix were used to quantitatively analyze the data. The results showed that the number of related publications was minimal and corresponded to current studies, which sheds light on the vast possibilities to analyze the relationship between both variables.
