This study aimed to determine the level of importance of the UPNW virtual library in the development of scientific research among dental students from the 8th to the 10th semester in Lima, 2023. The study was based on a quantitative, basic approach, using a non-experimental, analytical, observational, cross-sectional, and descriptive design. The sample consisted of 148 students from the aforementioned semesters, who completed a questionnaire. The results showed that there were no significant differences based on gender, while age and academic cycle revealed that as age and academic cycle increased, the perceived level of importance intensified. This was confirmed with a significance level lower than 5%, thus supporting the hypothesis related to these two variables. Additionally, it was found that students accessed the virtual library 4 to 5 times a day. The study concluded that the majority of respondents classified the importance of the UPNW virtual library as "Medium," indicating that they perceive it as a valuable resource, but not essential.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2024-07-03) Asencios Huerta, Mayra Stefany; Rojas Ortega, Raúl Antonio
The objective of this study was to compare the perception of facial asymmetry among dental students from a private university in Metropolitan Lima. The methodology followed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional, prospective, and comparative design, with a sample of 160 students, consisting of 80 female students and 80 male students. The study included students who had signed the informed consent and were in their 8th and 9th semesters. The technique used was a survey on aesthetic perception of facial asymmetry, created by the author Weyder Portocarrero Reyes. It consisted of a photo of a male and female patient with a symmetrical face. Modifications were made to the photo on the chin, using the pogonion as a reference point to simulate a deviation to the right side by 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.5 mm, 3.0 mm, 6.0 mm, and 8.0 mm. Data processing was done using SPSS version 25, applying the Kolmogorov-Smirnov method (for n≥50), followed by the Kruskal-Wallis test (p=0.00). The results showed a significant difference (p<0.05) in the perception of facial asymmetry among dental students. The image with the most favorable perception was image 11 (Mean=6, SD=2.674), and the image with the most unfavorable perception was image 22 (Mean=3.69, SD=2.399).

Consumption of cannabis sativa as a risk factor in periodontal health among dental students at a university in Lima, 2023
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2024-07-11) Jerí Diaz, Mario Alfonso; Chilón Minaya, Lesly Johanna
The purpose of this study was to examine the association between Cannabis Sativa consumption and periodontal health among dental students from a university in Lima, 2023. A quantitative approach was chosen, and a hypothetical-deductive method was applied, using an observational correlational, non-experimental, and cross-sectional research design. The study sample consisted of 324 dental students. The findings revealed that the vast majority of students (71.9%) do not consume Cannabis Sativa and generally have good periodontal health. In contrast, a small group (0.9%) that consumes cannabis also maintains optimal periodontal health, but a slightly higher percentage (3.1%) has a periodontal health rated as regular. The most relevant finding was the discovery of a statistically significant relationship (p < 0.05) between Cannabis Sativa consumption and periodontal health. The reasons behind Cannabis Sativa consumption were explored. Among users, 61.5% claimed to use it for medical reasons and generally presented regular periodontal health. On the other hand, 15.4% consumed it recreationally, and their periodontal health varied between good and regular. Additionally, a significant relationship was found between the frequency of consumption and periodontal health (p < 0.05). However, no significant relationships were identified between the form and duration of Cannabis Sativa consumption and periodontal health (p > 0.05).

The research aimed to examine the relationship between attitudes toward HIV patients and empathy levels among dental students at the Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener. The methodology was based on a basic research design, with a quantitative, prospective, observational, and cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of dental students from the 8th and 9th semesters, totaling 120 students. Inclusion criteria included students who were enrolled and in regular standing, excluding those working in areas related to HIV patients, those with physical impairments, and those who had not filled out the informed consent. A survey technique was used, with the researcher acting as the interviewer to ensure participants could provide their responses. Data collection involved two questionnaires: one to measure attitudes toward HIV patients, consisting of 15 items using a Likert scale (values from 1 to 5), and another to measure empathy levels with 20 items, rated from 1 to 7 (from strongly disagree to strongly agree). The results showed no association between attitudes toward HIV patients and empathy levels among dental students. Most participants exhibited low empathy (57.5%, N=69) and unfavorable attitudes (90.8%, N=109), followed by moderate empathy (25.8%, N=31) and favorable attitudes (9.2%, N=11) across all participants, respectively.

family environment and self-assessment of academic performance in dentistry students at norbert wiener private university in times of covid-19; 2021
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-05-05) Alburqueque Altamirano, Elizabeth; Chanamé Marín, Ann Rosemary
The family environment is a space of family tuning that presupposes a degree of communication, living patterns, cohesion, and control conditioned to a family structure, based on the dimensions of the FES Scale by Moos, R. and Trickett (1985). The connection between the family environment and self-assessment of academic achievement was established for students from the Dentistry program at UPNW during the COVID-19 period. A quantitative model was used, and the research was applied through a descriptive design. The study had a correlational, cross-sectional design. An instrument to measure the family climate was applied, and the weighted average of students was obtained. The research sample consisted of 165 students selected through simple probabilistic sampling. According to the collected data, a low inverse statistical association (r = -.004) between the family environment and academic performance was found. However, its statistical significance has a value greater than 0.05, rejecting the hypothesis. It was concluded that the family environment is not associated with the academic performance conditions of Dentistry students at the Universidad Norbert Wiener in 2021.

The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between human values and burnout syndrome in 8th and 9th semester students of the School of Dentistry at the Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener in Lima, 2023. The research adopted a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design, non-experimental, and cross-sectional in nature. A questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of 120 students. The results of the analysis showed that 73.3% of students expressed a high level of human values, while 75.8% showed an intermediate level in relation to burnout syndrome. Interestingly, 58.3% of students with high human values also reported experiencing burnout syndrome at a medium level. In conclusion, a significant association between human values and burnout syndrome was identified, supported by the Spearman correlation coefficients (Rho = 0.25, p = 0.006), which highlight the interdependence between these two variables. These results emphasize the need to consider the dimension of human values when addressing the prevention and management of burnout syndrome in the educational context of dentistry

The objective of this study was to determine the level of knowledge and practice of the dental amalgam removal protocol among dental students at the Universidad Norbert Wiener in Lima, 2023. A quantitative approach was chosen, and a hypothetical-deductive method was applied, using a non-experimental descriptive cross-sectional research design. The study sample consisted of 101 students from the 8th, 9th, and 10th semesters of the Dentistry program during the 2023-I period. The results showed that regarding the level of knowledge and practice of the dental amalgam removal protocol, 43.6% of students had high-level knowledge about the practices of the protocol. Additionally, it is encouraging to mention that 30.7% of these students had medium-level knowledge regarding the same practices. On the other hand, of those with low levels of knowledge, only 5.9% exhibited moderate or medium management of the dental amalgam removal protocol practices. Furthermore, at a 5% significance level, there is statistically significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that significant differences exist in the practice of the dental amalgam removal protocol among the different knowledge groups (Low, Medium, High) in dental students.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-12-04) Mucha Guerra, Rosario Lilia; Llerena Meza De Pastor, Verónica
The main objective of this study was to determine the perception of the gamification technique for competency-based learning among dental students at Universidad Norbert Wiener enrolled in the academic period 2023-1. An observational descriptive study was designed, including a sample of 268 students who responded to a survey in Google Forms format, sent via institutional email. The survey was divided into two sections: one for sociodemographic data and the second, a Likert scale with 5 response items to measure perceptions about the use of gamification. The scale was validated by expert judgment, with inter-rater agreement values greater than 0.7, indicating approval of the instrument. Reliability was also analyzed through internal consistency analysis, yielding a Cronbach's alpha value of 0.96 for the general perception. The results reveal a positive attitude (59.7%) towards the use of gamification, a significant relationship with age for both general perception and the dimensions of teaching activities, suitability, and development (p<0.05), while age was related to the dimensions of suitability and context (p<0.05). No relationship was found between perception and academic grade. It is concluded that the students have a positive attitude, with women showing a higher positive valuation for certain dimensions, while students aged 20 to 28 tend to perceive the benefits of applying gamified strategies in the university educational context.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-03-28) Beraun Arias, Roger Marco; Farías Vera, Javier
The objective of this research was to determine whether there is a relationship between musculoskeletal pain and work posture in students from the dental clinic at Universidad Norbert Wiener, Lima 2018. It was a correlational, inductive, and cross-sectional study, with 81 students participating. The "Nordic Kuorinka" instrument was used to identify musculoskeletal pain symptoms, and the B.H.O.P (Balance Human Operating Position) was used to assess work posture. Data processing was done using the SPSS statistical software, version 24.0, and the Chi-square test of Pearson was applied for statistical analysis. The results showed that 85% of the students experienced musculoskeletal pain, while 15% did not. In terms of anatomical regions, the neck and back were where the most symptoms were reported. Regarding work posture, 90% of the students exhibited improper posture. According to postural verification (minimal cervical flexion, distance from the head to the working field of 30–35 cm, and the operator sitting with a straight back), these were the most common postural issues. The study concluded that there is a statistically significant relationship between musculoskeletal pain and work posture in the neck and back areas among students.
