Análisis De Los Factores Subyacentes En Los Rankings Internacionales De Universidades

Author

  • SAFÓN, Vicente

Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo es investigar la existencia de un factor oculto en dos de los rankings globales de universidades más influyentes del mundo, utilizando técnicas factoriales y regresiones multivariables. Los resultados obtenidos apoyan la tesis de que estos rankings no están midiendo la calidad universitaria, ya que son otras variables, como la reputación o el país de procedencia, las que explican las ordenaciones a las que finalmente llegan. Se concluye de este resultado la recomendación de minimizar la influencia que ejercen sobre las instituciones que ordenan.
