Journal Title: Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales / International Journal of Social Sciences - Year 2022, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
At present, few universities are dedicated to train students with an epistemological prole, due to many factors in the university professorship; as well as, there is a lack of interest by authorities, professors, students in directing the love for science, for the simple reason of not investing more budget or other factors. The purpose of this research is to show that the basic epistemological knowledge of history and philosophy improves learning in university students in the rst cycle in the subject called Methodology of Research or University Work; many times, epistemology is confused with the theory of knowledge or gnoseology. The object of the study was to determine the existence and relationship of variables about the epistemology workshop and academic performance. For this research work, the type of pre-experimental applied study was used; the design employed was experimental. The population and sample consisted of 31 students. The research resulted that most students have a high command of analysis, inference and explanation;however,despitetheexperimentationofeachofthesewithacademic performance, it was not signicant. Similarly, the correlation between critical thinking and performance in the subject of Methodology was not signicant, although there was a slight correlation
