Abstract
La responsabilidad social universitaria (RSU) es un concepto que enfatiza en las instituciones el cumplir con los requerimientos generados por los retos de la sociedad por medio de una mayor participación. Para el caso de los estudiantes universitarios esto implica una mirada más amplia del ámbito profesional que involucra la comprensión de las dimensiones políticas, sociales y económicas; por lo anterior, la implementación de la RSU en estudiantes universitarios es crucial en este proceso. El objetivo de esta revisión de alcance fue analizar el proceso de validación de escalas de RSU aplicadas a estudiantes universitarios. La revisión arrojó un total de 161 resultados, 17 de ellos cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. La mayoría de las investigaciones fueron aplicadas en Latinoamérica. Todos los estudios usaron una escala Likert para valorar la RSU. 13 investigaciones realizaron análisis factorial exploratorio y la totalidad llevó a cabo evaluaciones de consistencia interna o confiabilidad global. En general, la validez y confiabilidad de las escalas presentaron adecuados resultados; solo un estudio realizó prueba-reprueba. Estos hallazgos evidencian que la RSU conlleva un rol significativo en adoptar profesionales competentes y socialmente responsables. Además, puede ser un diferenciador clave para las universidades en un entorno competitivo en el cual se fortalezcan iniciativas que otorguen oportunidades a los estudiantes de ejercer comportamientos más conscientes en el entorno colectivo.
University Social Responsibility (USR) emphasizes the need for institutions to respond to societal challenges through increased engagement. For university students, this means adopting not only a broader professional perspective but also an understanding of the political, social, and economic dimensions. Therefore, implementing USR among university students is a crucial aspect of this process. The aim of this scoping review was to analyze the validation processes of USR scales applied to university students. The review identified 161 results, 17 of which met the inclusion criteria. Most of the research was conducted in Latin America. All studies employed a Likert scale to assess USR, with 13 studies conducting an exploratory factor analysis and all performing assessments of internal consistency or overall reliability. Overall, the validity and reliability of the scales showed satisfactory results, though only one study included a test-retest analysis. These findings underscore that USR has a vital role in cultivating competent and socially responsible professionals. Additionally, it can serve as a key differentiator for universities in a competitive landscape, enhancing initiatives that provide students with opportunities to engage in more mindful and collective-oriented behaviors.
