In the case of Cuba, the behavior and practices of this typology were investigated, as well as the tendency of the peasant to abandon their traditional knowledge. Thus, the objective of the research was to design a product service for the practice of rural tourism that promotes and safeguards the culture and traditions of the peasantry. Having as a context of study the El Guayabal Community, in the Mayabeque territory. Through the use of semi-structured and unstructured interviews, scientific observation, benefit segmentation and opportunity analysis, it was determined that there is a potential demand for rural-style experiences; the territory has excellent resources, agricultural and cultural attractions that respond to the expected benefits; however, the conditions are not optimal for the projected purpose, due to the absence of service infrastructure, the low level of perception of the population about the value of its heritage, and the lack of a community cultural identity. In this sense, through the Delphi method or Expert Criterion, the proposed feasibility of the designed product-service was validated for future scenarios, in order to contribute to the strengthening of community participation and the safeguarding of their traditional knowledge and expressions.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

For this study, the province of Chimborazo - Ecuador was selected due to the extensive knowledge and data of this province. Vector geoinformation on land use was collected at a scale of 1:250000 from two seasons: 2000 to 2020, maintaining the same scale to standardize the relationship with the national object catalog in both seasons. Subsequently, a flow chart of cartographic inputs, geoprocesses and products was generated by consulting an algorithm to an artificial intelligence, which was subsequently developed in Python and QGIS to determine the area that underwent land use transformation within these two periods. Once the area of ​​change was determined, it was crossed with an input at a scale of 1:25000 in order to know the state of land use at a higher resolution scale. Subsequently, with the use of this information, descriptive statistics were generated to present information on land use surfaces in 2021. In addition, a fragmentation analysis was carried out using a fragmentation coefficient based on the shape and surface variables to determine the level of fragmentation of the land covers. The areas of native forest and agricultural land were determined to be the predominant ones in the province, but the area with the greatest transformation in this 20-year period is the native forest, within which, by crossing with a higher resolution scale, the ecosystem that has suffered the greatest impact of transformation is the moorland. In addition, with the analysis of cover fragmentation, it has been determined that most of the covers are in a medium fragmentation range.</p> 2025-07-10T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

Five spectral indices (GLI, SAVI, RGBVI, MGRVI, and VIgreen) were evaluated in a 7,000 m² experimental plot, using a factorial design that included four peanut varieties, two planting densities, and two types of tillage. Data were captured with a DJI Phantom 4 Pro drone and processed using photogrammetric software and spatial analysis tools. The results showed that the RGBVI index had the highest reflectance values (0.52 ± 0.05), making it the most effective for evaluating crop vigor. The INIAP-381 and INIAP-383 varieties demonstrated higher vigor, while conventional tillage favored crop development compared to zero tillage. The interaction between the INIAP-381 variety and a planting density of 62.500 plants/hectare resulted in higher reflectance, indicating better resource utilization. These findings suggest that UAVs equipped with RGB sensors and the RGBVI spectral index can be accessible and effective tools for peanut crop monitoring, reducing costs and facilitating decision-making in precision agriculture. The application of these technologies can contribute to public policy formulation aimed at revitalizing the peanut sector in Ecuador, strengthening the value chain and increasing productivity.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

Salas-Macias carlos.salas@utm.edu.ec <p>Tropical dry forests are ecosystems highly vulnerable to degradation, whose restoration requires effective conservation strategies. This study assessed the biodiversity of a tropical dry forest in its natural state and a forest under assisted regeneration, comparing species richness, equity, and community structure. Four sample plots of 20 x 50 meters each were established in ecosystems, and diversity indices were analyzed using iNEXT.4steps and PAST software. The results show that the natural forest has a higher species richness (54) than the regenerated forest (28) and a more even abundance distribution. The dominance of pioneer species in the regenerated forest indicates that it is still in an early stage of ecological succession. Extrapolation of diversity suggests that the restored ecosystem is unlikely to reach the complexity of natural forests in the medium term. These findings highlight the importance of complementary restoration strategies, such as introducing late-successional species, to accelerate structural and functional convergence. The study underscores the need for long-term monitoring to assess the effectiveness of assisted regeneration in tropical dry forests. More holistic restoration approaches could improve the resilience and stability of these ecosystems.</p> 2025-07-10T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

Este trabajo se enmarca en la problemática de la subvaloración y la falta de apropiación de las culturas "chola" y "montuvia." Para llevar a cabo el análisis de dicha obra, se ha recurrido a los principios de la teoría sociocrítica, desarrollada por el erudito francés Claude Duchet. Esta corriente crítica se enfoca en la identificación de las influencias del pasado que motivaron la creación de una obra literaria. Dentro del contexto de Los que se van se identifican elementos culturales de suma relevancia, tales como las creencias y las narrativas, la representación de la mujer como un símbolo de deseo y discordia, así como el simbolismo del machete como una ley social. Estos componentes culturales desempeñan un papel distintivo en la caracterización de las culturas "chola" y "montuvia." El enfoque metodológico empleado en el análisis de esta obra se basa en la teoría sociocrítica de Claude Duchet, la cual tiene como objetivo desentrañar las huellas de la sociedad que subyacen en la producción literaria. Además, se utiliza un enfoque descriptivo para resaltar la problemática de la escasa apropiación y reconocimiento de los términos "cholo" y "montuvio." Los resultados del análisis evidencian que "Los que se van" contribuye significativamente al rescate de la identidad cultural de los pueblos "chola" y "montuvia," y, en general, es una obra que debería ser incorporada desde los primeros pasos de la educación de un individuo, ya sea en el ámbito familiar o escolar.&nbsp;Esto contribuiría a enriquecer la sociedad desde una perspectiva cultural, promoviendo la valorización de estas culturas tradicionales y fomentando un entendimiento más profundo de la diversidad cultural en la sociedad contemporánea.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

Se establece una relación directa de la violencia vicaria en los mitos, y cómo los hombres o representación de estos atacan a las mujeres por medio de sus hijos. Se realiza una línea de tiempo que ayuda a demostrar que la historia es cíclica, que es repetitiva y que el patriarcado no ha dejado de tener fuerza dentro de estas civilizaciones aparentemente tan distintas. Se evidencia que el machismo es cultural y que no ha dejado de educar tanto a mujeres como a hombres, que se necesita deconstruir a la sociedad, en la que crecen mujeres que siguen sin tener acceso a educación y libertad.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

The importance of implementing multivariate models to improve efficiency and productivity in commercial plantations is highlighted, facilitating decisions based on accurate data. The research combines foliar analysis and soil testing to gain a comprehensive understanding of the nutritional status of plants. The approach applies specifically to bananas. Principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis were used to identify patterns and reduce the dimensionality of the data. The Ward and K-means methods were used to discriminate groups based on the similarity of nutritional conditions. The results allowed grouping banana lots, identifying more effective management strategies. In addition, a high correlation was observed between the variables studied, which supports the usefulness of Pearson correlations in agricultural research.

These factors directly influence the efficiency and performance of employees, being determinants for the success and sustainability of these organizations. The objective of the research was to evaluate the impact of organizational culture on the job satisfaction of employees of the Cooperativa de Ahorro y Crédito Comercio Limitada, in the city of Portoviejo. A mixed approach with a correlational design was adopted, applying an interview to the surrogate manager for the organizational diagnosis of the Cooperative and a survey of 106 workers to analyze the study variables. Data processing was carried out by using SPSS software, evidencing a weak relationship among organizational culture and job satisfaction. The results show that the Cooperative presents an organizational culture of a paternalistic and apathetic nature, with limited collaborative and demanding approaches, which could be affecting the workers’ satisfaction. It is concluded that a weak organizational culture may be contributing to lower job satisfaction in the Cooperative.</p> 2025-07-08T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

Para ello, se realizó una revisión de fuentes académicas que abordan el uso del cálculo en contextos administrativos, identificando aplicaciones en cada sector. Igualmente, producto de la experticia de los autores, se exponen a modo de ejemplo varios casos en lo que al ser aplicados facilita las conversiones de unidades, análisis de costos, proyecciones financieras y planificación de espacios físicos. En la industria alimentaria, su uso es esencial para controlar recetas y calcular costos de producción; en hotelería, permite estimar niveles de ocupación, planificar ingresos y distribuir eficientemente las habitaciones; y en la gestión de espacios sociales, la geometría plana se aplica al diseño y organización de áreas para eventos. Las operaciones matemáticas más utilizadas incluyen fórmulas geométricas, conversiones de masa y volumen, y ecuaciones aplicadas a la proyección y análisis de datos. Se concluye que el cálculo es una competencia imprescindible para los administradores, especialmente en sectores turísticos y de servicios, ya que contribuye significativamente a reducir la incertidumbre, optimizar procesos y elevar la rentabilidad. Integrado al proceso administrativo, el cálculo fortalece la planificación estratégica y permite enfrentar de manera más efectiva los desafíos de un entorno competitivo y cambiante, convirtiéndose en un recurso transversal indispensable en la adopción de medidas gerenciales.</p> 2025-07-08T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

El objetivo fue analizar de manera sistemática la relación entre comprensión lectora y resolución de problemas matemáticos, habilidades fundamentales en el desempeño académico del alumno. A través de una revisión de literatura científica se analizaron 40 obras que cumplían varios criterios de inclusión: obras publicadas entre 2008 y 2025, artículos en revistas indexadas y con revisión de pares ciegos, investigaciones empíricas que analizan explícitamente la relación entre dichas habilidades, y estudios en contextos escolares, principalmente de educación secundaria. Los resultados ponen en evidencia una interdependencia marcada entre la comprensión lectora y la capacidad para resolver problemas matemáticos, especialmente en situaciones donde los enunciados requieren interpretación, elaboración de inferencias y reorganización de información. Del mismo modo, se identificaron factores mediadores, entre ellos el dominio del vocabulario académico, la habilidad para reconocer datos relevantes y el conocimiento previo en matemática, además de variaciones asociadas a la edad y al nivel escolar de los educandos. Las investigaciones analizadas concuerdan en que una enseñanza articulada de lectura y matemáticas favorece el rendimiento en ambas áreas. No obstante, se advierte una escasez de intervenciones didácticas sistematizadas que aborden de forma explícita esta conexión. En conclusión, es clara la premura de desarrollar estrategias pedagógicas que fortifiquen la comprensión lectora como competencia transversal en el aprendizaje matemático, y fomentar estudios longitudinales que ayuden a valorar el impacto de estas prácticas en diversos niveles educativos y entornos socioculturales.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

This article analyzes the main barriers in the implementation of effective methodologies, such as the gap that exists between curricular theory and its application in the classroom, the lack of continuous training of teachers and resistance to change using traditional methods preferentially. The analysis shows that, although constructivism is promoted as a ministerial flag, the practice continues to focus on traditional methods, which negatively affects students' perception and performance in the area of ​​mathematics from their beginnings in school. Overcoming these barriers requires an alignment between theory and practice, continuous teacher training and a change in the educational structure that allows greater openness to innovation in the educational field.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

These errors, which occur before the analysis phase, can be caused by factors such as incorrect collection, transportation or improper handling of the samples. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the pre-analytical factors that influence the quality of urine samples and biochemical tests. A cross-sectional study with a descriptive approach was implemented, which allowed to examine and compile information on the conditions under which pre-analytical procedures are performed. Its results expressed that, in urine samples, the most common errors include poor conservation, with a high percentage of 98.8% in one study, followed by inappropriate use of containers (58.14%) and incorrect identification (14.3%), among other factors. In the case of biochemical samples, hemolysis is the most frequent error, with percentages varying between 70% and 2.88%. These problems are closely related to inadequate collection (73.3% to 4.3%) and insufficient sample (68.3% to 1%). It is concluded that there is a high percentage of errors that pre-exist during the pre-analytical stage, affecting the quality of a sample, which highlights the urgency of implementing more rigorous protocols in the pre-analytical stage to improve conditions and ensure more accurate results.</p> 2025-07-07T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.

Esta condición puede generar consecuencias significativas en la salud bucodental y en la calidad de vida de los pacientes adultos. En los últimos años, la toxina botulínica ha emergido como una alternativa terapéutica prometedora para el manejo de este trastorno, especialmente en casos donde coexisten desajustes emocionales. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar la eficacia del tratamiento con toxina botulínica tipo A en adultos que presentan bruxismo junto con síntomas de ansiedad y depresión. Para ello, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica sistemática de estudios clínicos, revisiones y metaanálisis publicados en bases de datos de reconocido prestigio científico. Los resultados extraídos de la literatura indican que la aplicación de aquella toxina en los músculos maseteros y temporales reduce significativamente la intensidad del trastorno, alivia el dolor muscular y mejora la funcionalidad mandibular, con efectos positivos también sobre los síntomas emocionales asociados. Así mismo, se reporta una baja incidencia de efectos adversos, generalmente leves y transitorios. En conclusión, la evidencia actual respalda el uso de la toxina botulínica como una opción eficaz y segura en el tratamiento del dicho problema en adultos, principalmente cuando está vinculado a trastornos de ansiedad y depresión, aunque se recomienda continuar con estudios longitudinales que refuercen estos hallazgos.</p> 2025-07-10T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Revista Científica Multidisciplinaria SAPIENTIAE.
