SANCHEZ MIRANDA, Martha Patricia; DE LA GARZA GONZALEZ, Arturo y LOPEZ RAMIREZ, Ernesto Octavio. Computer simulations on environmental issues in two contrast groups. liber. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.2, pp.223-233. ISSN 1729-4827.
This work aims to describe the cognitive representation on the subject of the environment that two groups of students have: 1) 57 of biology and 2) 64 of psychology, through computer simulations using the method of Pathfinder Associative Networks. Students are asked that they define 7 concepts related to the subject, these are: environment, pollution, nature, city, ecology, deforestation and recycling; through the technique of natural semantic networks. The data obtained was used to carry out computer simulations. The findings demonstrate that the two groups have similar representations in concepts relating to their experiences, but there are also differences in concepts that have to do with their knowledge and preferences especially for the youth of biology.
