Abstract (English): This article aims to identify the factors that influence academic motivation in achieving meaningful learning among higher education students in Hidalgo, Mexico. To this end, various theoretical perspectives on motivation are analyzed, including behaviorist, humanistic, and cognitive approaches. Through a quantitative research study, the relationship between two key variables—motivation and meaningful learning—is examined in students from the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo (UAEH). The sample consisted of 18 currently enrolled and active students. To measure these variables, the adapted MAPE questionnaire was used, which evaluates students’ motivational characteristics based on their behavior in academic and professional contexts. The MAPE instrument identifies seven motivational factors (motivation to learn, willingness to make an effort, disinterest and rejection of work, desire for success and its recognition, fear of failure, and performance-facilitating anxiety), which are grouped into two categories: intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation. The results show how these factors influence the achievement of meaningful learning and provide recommendations to optimize strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Este artículo tiene como objetivo identificar los factores que inciden en la motivación escolar para el logro del aprendizaje significativo en los estudiantes de nivel superior en Hidalgo, México. Para ello, se analizan diversas perspectivas teóricas sobre la motivación, incluyendo la conductista, la humanista y la cognitiva. A través de una investigación cuantitativa, se pretende determinar la relación entre dos variables clave: la motivación y el aprendizaje significativo, en estudiantes de la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo (UAEH). La muestra estuvo compuesta por 18 estudiantes actualmente inscritos y activos en la universidad. Para medir estas variables, se utilizó el cuestionario adaptado MAPE, que evalúa las características motivacionales del alumno en función de su comportamiento en contextos académicos y profesionales. El instrumento MAPE identifica siete factores motivacionales (motivación por aprender, disposición al esfuerzo, desinterés y rechazo por el trabajo, deseo de éxito y su reconocimiento, miedo al fracaso y ansiedad facilitadora del rendimiento) que se agrupan en dos conjuntos: motivación intrínseca y motivación extrínseca. Los resultados muestran cómo estos factores influyen en el logro de aprendizajes significativos y ofrecen recomendaciones para optimizar las estrategias. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
