ABSTRACT

El momento histórico que viven los países en Latinoamérica, está reclamando con urgencia el aporte de la educación superior. En este sentido el presente trabajo muestra los resultados de una investigación llevada a cabo con un grupo de actores universitarios, personal no docente, de cinco universidades de América Latina. El objetivo fue conocer las creencias que sobre el ámbito organizacional de la RSU, tienen 350 personas vinculadas al sector administrativo de cinco universidades de América Latina: Católica de Colombia, Loja de Ecuador, Tecnológica de Paraguay, Yucatán de México y Francisco Gavidia de El Salvador. Se aplicó la encuesta elaborada para tal fin, por Valleys, De la Cruz y Sasia (2009) de cinco dimensiones, ajustada para este propósito. Los resultados muestran que la valoración más positiva de los participantes, se ubica en el componente denominado relaciones interpersonales con 4.71 en la opción de acuerdo. Este proceso básico y fundamental en la vida y construcción socio- afectiva de las personas, da cuenta del grado en que influimos y somos influidos por el comportamiento de los demás, de ahí su importancia para la materialización de los planteamientos de la Responsabilidad social universitaria.


The historical moment that countries live in Latin America, is calling urgently the contribution of higher education. In this sense, the present work shows the results of a research carried out with a group of university actors, non-teaching staff, five universities in Latin America. The objective was to know the beliefs about the organizational environment of the RSU, 350 people linked to the administrative sector of five Latin American universities: Catholic of Colombia, Loja of Ecuador, Technological of Paraguay, Yucatan of Mexico and Francisco Gavidia of El Salvador. The survey developed for this purpose by Valleys, De la Cruz and Sasia (2009) of five dimensions, adjusted for this purpose. The results show that the most positive evaluation of the participants is located in the component called interpersonal relations with 4.71 in the agreement option. This basic and fundamental process in the life and socio-affective construction of people accounts for the degree to which we influence and are influenced by the behavior of others, hence their importance for the materialization of the approaches of university social responsibility.

ABSTRACT

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection remains a public health challenge and Nigerian universities are not immune to the effect of the epidemic. Despite the fact that non academic junior staff constitute a significant proportion of the workforce and are at risk due to their lower level of education and socio-economic status, few studies have focused on them. The broad aim of this study is to assess the HIV knowledge, risk perception and behaviours of junior staff of the University of Ibadan, Nigeria. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 700 junior staff of the University of Ibadan. Respondents were selected using multistage sampling technique and completed structured interviewer-administered questionnaires. The quantitative data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (version 17) to generate frequencies and cross tabulations of variables. The mean age of the respondents was 38.89.9 years, 74.6% were males, 76.4% were married and 51.6% had post secondary education. Majority identified blood transfusion 94.4% and sexual intercourse 97.3% as the main routes of transmission. The commonest methods of prevention known were condom use 79.6% and mutual fidelity 89.7%. Respondents aged 20-29 years, the single and those with post-secondary education (P=0.000) had higher HIV related knowledge. Only 10% of the respondents perceived that they were at risk of contracting the disease; 30.3% did not think People Living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHAs) should continue to work. Fifteen percent reported sexual intercourse with a non-regular partner in the previous 12 months and 30.8% of this group did not use a condom. Workplace health education programmes to reduce HIV risk behaviours and stigmatizing attitudes are recommended.
