    Análisis de susceptibilidad geológica con menor sesgo : comparación de metodologías de análisis para la gestión del riesgo geológico
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Álvarez Uribe, Alejandro; N/A
    Currently, many analyses aiming at understanding the various phenomena associated with risk management in geology are based on heuristic approaches. The degree and quality of these analyses depend significantly on the expert's knowledge and experience about the geomorphological processes present in the study areas. Due to the ambiguity of this method, it is susceptible to subjective interpretations. This paper analyzes other methodologies used for susceptibility analysis. Among the alternatives are heuristic, statistical, deterministic methodologies, and methods based on training and simulation (AI), identifying which of these provides a more solid foundation for decision-making in geological risk management, while addressing the challenges associated with implementing these methods and their impact on the effectiveness of the analyses.

    (Universidad EAFIT, 2019) Trujillo Vélez, Maria Adelaida; Sanin Posada, Alejandro
    This study aimed to identify the presence of attitudinal and sexual similarity bias in the assessment of candidates within a selection process in a sample of 15 professionals responsible for the recruitment in Medellin city. In order to corroborate the hypotheses, a quasi-experimental study was carried out in which the dependence degree of the different variables studied was evaluated through the analysis of contingency tables and the chi-square test. According to the results, it was possible to confirm the presence of sexual similarity bias for a traditional female position, which did not occur for the traditional male position or for the attitudinal similarity bias. This study sought to increase awareness among professionals responsible for recruitment about the importance of reducing discrimination and contributing to promote equity and diversity since a person's entry process into the organization.
