Se empleó un enfoque cuantitativo, con diseño no experimental, transversal, de tipo básico y nivel descriptivo correlacional. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 160 estudiantes, evaluados mediante la Escala de Soledad UCLA (RULS-6) y el Inventario de Intereses Vocacionales Talento 4-5 (versión abreviada). Los resultados mostraron que el 56% presentó niveles medios de soledad, y solo el 3%, niveles altos. No se encontraron correlaciones significativas entre la soledad y ninguna de las dimensiones del inventario, ya que todos los valores de significancia superaron el nivel crítico de α = .050. En particular, se halló una correlación nula entre soledad e intereses realistas (r = .01, p = .861). También se observaron correlaciones irrelevantes con los intereses de investigación (r = .05, p = .518) y emprendedores (r = –.09, p = .124), lo que sugiere independencia entre estas variables. Asimismo, se identificaron correlaciones levemente negativas con intereses artísticos (r = –.14, p = .087), sociales (r = –.12, p = .124) y convencionales (r = –.13, p = .101). En conclusión, los resultados indican que no existe una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre la soledad y los intereses vocacionales en los estudiantes evaluados.The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between loneliness and vocational interests in 4th and 5th grade high school students from a public educational institution in Lima Metropolitana, 2024. A quantitative approach was used, with a non-experimental, cross sectional design, of a basic type and descriptive-correlational level. The sample consisted of 160 students, who were assessed using the UCLA Loneliness Scale (RULS-6) and the Talento 4-5 Vocational Interest Inventory (short version). Results showed that most participants reported moderate levels of loneliness (56%), while only a small percentage (3%) experienced high levels. No statistically significant correlations were found between loneliness and any of the vocational interest dimensions, as all p-values exceeded the critical level of α = .050. In particular, a near zero correlation was found between loneliness and realistic interests (r = .01, p = .861), indicating no association. Likewise, irrelevant correlations were found with investigative (r = .05, p = .518) and enterprising interests (r = –.09, p = .124), suggesting that motivation in these areas may operate independently of perceived loneliness. Meanwhile, slightly negative but non-significant correlations were observed with artistic (r = –.14, p = .087), social (r = –.12, p = .124), and conventional interests (r = –.13, p = .101). In conclusion, the findings suggest that there is no statistically significant association between loneliness and vocational interests among the students evaluated.application/pdfspainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/SoledadLonelinessOrientación VocacionalVocational GuidanceAdolescenteAdolescentEmocionesEmotionsSoledad e intereses vocacionales en estudiantes de 4to y 5to de secundaria de una institución educativa nacional de Lima Metropolitana, 2024Loneliness and vocational Interests in 4th and 5th year high school students of a public educational institution in Metropolitan Lima, 2024Soledad e interesses vocacionais em estudantes do 4º e 5º Ano do ensino médio de uma instituição educacional pública na região Metropolitana de Lima, 2024info:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesishttps://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#5.01.02https://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#5.03.01ODS 3: Salud y bienestar.
