MAMANI BENITO, Oscar J. Methodological Quality and Characteristics of the Undergraduate Psychology Theses of a Private University of Peru. Propós. represent. [online]. 2018, vol.6, n.2, pp.301-319. ISSN 2307-7999.  http://dx.doi.org/10.20511/pyr2018.v6n2.224.

The objective was to determine the methodological quality and identify the characteristics of the psychology theses approved in the 2014-2017 period of a private university in Peru. Corresponds to a descriptive-bibliometric study, where the study population was 161 theses approved in the period 2014 - 2017, of which 149 extensive files available in the institutional repository were analyzed. The qualification format of the final report of research work created at the National University of Trujillo was used as an instrument. The main results indicate that 72.5% of the theses were carried out by two authors, 81.2% corresponded to the correlation type, 66.4% were oriented to the clinical and health psychology research line, 47% involved the school population in mostly adolescents (69.1%) and only 6% of the works were published; On the other hand, regarding the methodological quality, it was found that the majority of the theses (83) showed a good quality, and with respect to its components, low scores were found in antecedents (.57), sample size (.58), statistical analysis (. 43), contrast design (.49) and discussion (.53). It is concluded that the theses supported in the period 2014- 2017 are characterized by being of non experimental design, they involve mostly school study population in adolescent age and maintain a quality between regular and good, evidencing methodological deficiencies in the statistical management.
