Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
El pensamiento crítico disposicional se ha relacionado con un rendimiento positivo en diferentes ámbitos de la vida, como un mejor ajuste académico y una mejor práctica profesional, así como un mayor bienestar psicológico. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo examinar las asociaciones entre el desarrollo positivo juvenil, el pensamiento crítico disposicional y la contribución social en una muestra de estudiantes universitarios españoles y probar el papel mediador de las 5Cs del desarrollo positivo juvenil (es decir, competencia, confianza, conexión, carácter y compasión) en la relación entre el pensamiento crítico disposicional y la contribución social. Se realizó un estudio transversal durante la primavera de 2024 mediante la administración online de un autoinforme. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 370 estudiantes (67.2% mujeres) de entre 18 y 29 años (M = 21.29; DE = 3.61) matriculados en 10 universidades de la comunidad autónoma de Andalucía (España). Los resultados mostraron un modelo de mediación parcial múltiple de las dimensiones de carácter y compasión en la relación entre el pensamiento crítico disposicional y la contribución social. Este modelo señaló que el pensamiento crítico disposicional se asociaba con más carácter y compasión y, a su vez, estas dimensiones del desarrollo positivo juvenil se asociaban con más contribución social. Estos resultados subrayan la necesidad de promover el pensamiento crítico disposicional y los componentes del carácter y compasión para aumentar la contribución social en los estudiantes universitarios.
