El proyecto es una experiencia formativa enfocada al desarrollo de las competencias investigativas a través de la escritura académica. La investigación se centró en el proceso de tutoría entre iguales (peer-tutoring) a través de 85 registros etnográficos que fueron sometidos a codificación abierta y codificación axial, de acuerdo con los lineamientos de Strauss y Corbin. Los registros se organizaron en categorías emergentes, a partir de las cuales se realizó una interpretación del material y se establecieron los significados de las interacciones pedagógicas. Los resultados mostraron la riqueza de la tutoría entre iguales para potenciar el desarrollo integral de los tutorados y promover de manera específica los procesos de lectura y la escritura a nivel universitario.

Studies have consistently shown relations between maternal sensitivity and infant security. Further research is required to resolve issues arising from modest correlations, focus on research in stressful as opposed to ordinary contexts, questions about the generality of results across cultures and social contexts, and about the context-specificity of caregiving behavior. This paper addresses these issues in 2 studies of child care in home and hospital contexts. Q-sort scores derived from extended naturalistic observations were used. Results are discussed in terms of links between methodology and effect sizes, the generality of links between maternal care and child security, the need for further research on caregiving in ordinary and emergency situations, and the context-sensitivity of maternal behavior. Maternal Care and A...

This research has three objectives: 1) To identify maternal and cultural beliefs and expectations, concerning the maternal role imagined by 49 expectant mothers in their last trimester of pregnancy, 2) to categorize and compare collected data about ideal mother’s behavior through mixed methods, and 3) to determine the relationship between the ideal mother’s behavior and mother-infant interactions in everyday context. Ethnographic results showed specific and complex aspects regarding mothers ’ personal beliefs, cultural discourses, and maternal expectations. Pearson correlational analysis conducted was not significant between ideal and real maternal behavior descriptions. Further research is needed to clarify cognitive, affective, and contextual factors related to maternal beliefs and mother-infant interactions. Key words: Early child development, mother-infant interaction, attachm...

Los resultados etnográficos muestran aspectos específicos y complejos referidos a creencias personales, discursos culturales y sentimientos maternos. Al procesar los datos provenientes del Q-sort del comportamiento materno ideal y real se obtuvo una correlación de Pearson no significativa. Los hallazgos resaltan la importancia de explorar las relaciones entre creencias y expectativas maternas ideales y las prácticas de cuidado materno con sus componentes cognitivos, afectivos y contextuales asociados.
