Abstract:
The development of the personality of university students can determine their affinities for certain disciplines; therefore, it is important to know their specific socio-demographic and motivational profile, what motivates them to start a certain university degree and what encourages them to continue with it, which can help to adapt the teaching methodology. A total of 292 university students from the University of Granada (Ceuta and Melilla campuses) participated in this quantitative study with a descriptive, cross-sectional design, in which motivation and social skills were analysed. Among the results, it can be highlighted that the student population is mainly female, with a higher level of motivation. Sociability, communication, thinking (optimistic or pessimistic), empathy and self-confidence are skills that affect university students\' motivation levels. This study highlights the importance and impact of students\' motivation on their learning and the development of their social competence, so it is essential to carry out educational interventions that promote these types of skills, especially in cross-border contexts, which can be demotivating environments.
摘要:
大学生个性的发展可以决定他们对某些学科的亲和力;因此,重要的是要了解他们的具体社会人口和动机,是什么促使他们开始某种大学学位,是什么鼓励他们继续这样做,这有助于适应教学方法。来自格拉纳达大学(休达和梅利利亚校区)的292名大学生参加了这项定量研究,横截面设计,其中分析了动机和社交技能。在结果中,可以强调的是,学生群体主要是女性,更高层次的动机。社交性,通信,思考(乐观或悲观),同理心和自信是影响大学生动机水平的技能。本研究强调了学生动机对他们学习和社会能力发展的重要性和影响。因此,开展促进这些类型技能的教育干预至关重要,尤其是在跨境环境中,这可能是令人沮丧的环境。
