Educational Work Engagement as Perceived by Mexican Students

Abstract

Policies focused on the confinement and distancing of people have impacted the formation of intellectual capital through labor commitment. The literature suggests that the increase in human capital is due to value-centered training, as well as the increase in structural capital due to exceptional investment, although relational capital has decreased due to confinement and healthy distance. The objective of the present work was to compare a theoretical model subtracted from the literature review with respect to an empirical model observed in a city in central Mexico. An exploratory, cross-sectional, psychometric and correlational study was carried out with a sample of 100 students in academic, professional and work training. The results indicate that the model can be contrasted in other scenarios and samples, although the level of reliability and validity can be adjusted to optimize the instrument and the proposed model.
