The study collected data using the Questionnaire on Educational Inclusion (CIE) for university settings, which assesses four key dimensions: Attitudes, Knowledge, Practices and Context, providing a holistic view of educational inclusion. The scale was validated through psychometric analysis, showing adequate reliability and validity properties. The data collected included quantitative responses from participants, recorded in a structured database. Each response was associated with socio-demographic variables, such as age, gender and previous experience with inclusion. Data were anonymised to ensure participant confidentiality.

The general purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of the Wayuu people’s cosmovision and access to health care services on the increase of maternal and child morbidity and mortality in the Wayuu population located in the village of Nazaret, in the municipality of Uribia.

The research team identified a significant problem regarding maternal and infant morbidity and mortality rates in the Wayuu community of Nazareth, Colombia. They gathered information from two sources: a university student from the Wayuu ethnic group who reported the concerning situation within the village, and data from various agencies and reports, which confirmed a rise in morbidity and mortality rates from 2015 to 2019. Further investigation revealed that several factors, including socioeconomic and cultural conditions unique to the Wayuu community and limited access to healthcare services, were contributing to this issue. The Wayuu community's customs and traditional health practices also played a role. Given the complexity of the problem, the research aims to deeply study the sociocultural factors affecting maternal and infant health in the Wayuu community. The goal is to develop a scientific understanding of how these factors influence morbidity and mortality rates and, ultimately, to design public health policies that integrate traditional Wayuu medicine and worldview with state healthcare practices. This approach seeks to bridge the gap between two distinct cultures and improve the health and well-being of pregnant women and children in the Wayuu community, with the potential to extend these solutions to the broader Wayuu population in Colombia.

Introducción: El estudio de la cultura organizacional es un tema de amplio debate debido a la necesidad de establecer ejes comunes en su definición y llegar a un consenso sobre cómo medirlo. El objetivo de este estudio es identificar los principales instrumentos y escalas de medición, válidos y confiables, que han sido construidos para medir la cultura organizacional durante el período 2013-2023. Método: El tipo de investigación es una revisión sistemática. La muestra seleccionada incluye artículos que han publicado el diseño y construcción de instrumentos de medición de la cultura organizacional durante los últimos diez años. Resultados: De la revisión efectuada, siete son adaptaciones de instrumentos y están validados. Los sectores más representativos son: Salud, Educación y Pymes. El 71.4% de los artículos reflejan un adecuado criterio de selección muestral. El marco teórico más referenciado es el Modelo de Valores por Competencias. El 92.8% de los instrumentos analizados supera el Alpha de Cronbach de 0.70, y para la validación, el 85.7% empleó la validez de constructo. Discusión: Se reconoce en las investigaciones la carencia de adaptaciones de instrumentos que son clásicos en estos estudios, así como aquellos que miden cultura organizacional en idioma español y que sean aplicables al contexto latinoamericano. Además, no exploran factores relevantes para el análisis de esta variable, tales como: significados, normas, valores e ideologías, supuestos básicos, hábitos, rituales, creencias, expectativas y subculturas. Se evidencia la necesidad de identificar nuevos modelos, factores y tipos de cultura.

An empirical-analytical, explanatory, non-experimental, transactional study based on correlational/causal designs, from the temporal perspective was prepared where the design is contemporary and bivariate; with respect to the amplitude and organization of the data. This research work sought to correlate entrepreneurial capacity (dependent variable) with the key factors for the development of entrepreneurial capabilities (independent variables). The population and sample consisted of 1,579 Colombian adolescents attending secondary school in official institutions located in both urban and rural geographic areas; with an average age of 16 years, selected through a stratified random sampling method; 685 were female and 894 were male, with an age range between 13 and 19 years. The following aspects were taken into account as inclusion criteria: being 13 years old at the time of instrument application and, in case of being of legal age, still studying in basic secondary education; being enrolled in an educational institution; currently studying in secondary education, with no differential approach or positive or negative discrimination related to physical features, age, sex, and sexual, ethnic, or religious preferences. To study entrepreneurial capabilities, an instrument was designed to assess personal and academic information, academic training, occupation of the family group, previous participation in entrepreneurship, or previous conceptions and entrepreneurship training. The instrument has a Likert scale to evaluate personal factors and is made up of 39 items grouped into 5 personal factors, with six anchor adjectives, ranging from never to always. The rating of the items ranges from 1 to 6, where 1 is the lowest score and 6 is the highest; with the possibility of a total attitude score of 234 points. The Likert scale is designed to evaluate the organized entrepreneurial skills categories. Initially, it was given to six expert pairs for validation and then piloted for validation, with the participation of 257 adolescents, that is, 16.27% of the sample The six anchor adjectives were designed in even numbers in order to avoid the fact that the evaluated person is oriented to an intermediate value, thus reducing objectivity and precision in the evaluation process. Values 1, 2, and 3 show unfavorability toward the profile in question, while ratings 4, 5 and 6 show favorability.

The instrument was applied to 808 heads of households living in the municipalities of Torbes and Fernández Feo in the State of Táchira in Venezuela. These are households in a situation of economic vulnerability. The variable defined as the dependent variable: "On some occasion when there was no food in the household" through a dichotomous response category: 1 = Yes and 2 = No. The research hypotheses were: 1. H0: There is no significant evidence of a significant relationship or association between the time when there was no food in the household and the household's access to the CLAP box. 2. H0: there is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and a member of the household having received money through a government voucher or mission. 3. H0: there is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and a member of the household went to bed hungry. 4. H0: There is no significant evidence of a significant relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and a household member went a whole day and night without food. 5. H0: There is no significant evidence of a significant relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and difficulties in acquiring food due to lack of income. 6. H0: there is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between occasions when there was no food in the household and asking for help from friends and family to feed themselves. 7. H0: there is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and reduced portion sizes at meal times. 8. H0: there is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and having restricted the amount of food consumed by adults so that children can eat. 9. H0: There is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and a reduced number of meals per day. 10. H0: There is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and at least one of the household members receiving a food basket or bag as a benefit for his or her work. 11. H0: there is no significant evidence of a relationship or association between the occasion when there was no food in the household and receiving food or help to buy food from an organization other than the school canteen. Mediante las pruebas de Chi-cuadrado de Pearson y Chi-cuadrado de razón de verosimilitud y el estadístico V de Cramer, se midió la fuerza de asociación, a un nivel de confianza del 5%, excluyendo las que resultaron sin relación estadísticamente significativa.. Only 7 variables were statistically significant.

Background: The absence of specific treatments for the COVID 19 has promoted the design of strategies in public health to reduce the transmission rate and decrease the mortality from the virus.
