Ítem Incidencia de factores sociodemográficos en los niveles de conocimiento en salud sexual y reproductiva en Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Álvarez Niño, Kevin Orlando; Gil Macias, Miguel Ángel; Cantet, María NataliaÍtem Comportamiento de la distribución salarial de los recién graduados en instituciones de educación superior en Colombia durante el periodo 2016 - 2021(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Medina Erazo, Maiddy Tatiana; Chaparro Cardona, Juan CamiloThis paper performs an analysis on the salary distribution of graduates in Higher Education Institutions in Colombia, who were linked to the labor market one year after obtaining the undergraduate or graduate degree, during the period 2016 - 2021. A descriptive analysis was performed, through the estimation of a simple linear regression and a goodness-of-fit test, with the objective of determining whether the differences between the attachment salaries are statistically significant. Among the main findings, it is highlighted that the salary gap between men and women persists, and that graduates from private universities receive a higher entry salary than graduates from public universities. In terms of levels of education, at the undergraduate level, there is almost equal behavior in the starting salary of graduates in professional technical and technological fields; At the postgraduate level, there is a higher salary for the doctoral level, however, during the study period, this has decreased, leading to a decrease in the existing salary gap with respect to graduates at the master's level. Finally, with respect to educational programs structured by the International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED), recent graduates in the field of health and welfare enter the labor market with a higher salary compared to graduates in other programs.Publicación Comportamiento de un mercado al borde de la crisis : futuro a mediano plazo del mercado inmobiliario en Estados Unidos(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Ochoa Espinal, Esteban; Luján Jaramillo, Alejandra MaríaThis study analyzes the dynamics of the real estate market in the state of Florida and its relationship with financing, foreign investment, and housing affordability in the period 2024-2028. Using ARIMA forecasting models and an analysis of economic and financial data, the research assesses sector stability and its potential risks. Three key findings emerge from the results: (1) the relationship between interest rates and housing accessibility, where rising financing costs have reduced purchasing capacity, particularly affecting first-time buyers and middle- to low-income households; (2) the influence of foreign investment, which has contributed to real estate speculation and increased property prices, leading to a reduced supply of affordable housing; and (3) the impact of recent regulatory changes in the sector, particularly in commission structures and rental market interventions, which could alter liquidity and price stability in the coming years. These findings help us understand how economic conditions and regulatory policies influence the evolution of Florida’s real estate market, highlighting the importance of implementing measures that balance housing access with sector stability and mitigate the risks of a medium-term crisis.Publicación Caracterización de la piscicultura y sus implicaciones para el desarrollo sostenible : un estudio de caso en Puerto Boyacá(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Gil Beltrán, Gustavo Adolfo; Contreras Morales, Manuel Alejandro; Cadavid Herrera, José VicentePublicación Correlación entre las tarifas de energía eléctrica en Colombia y factores económicos como el IPC, IPP y relación entre el consumo de electricidad y el crecimiento económico (2016 – 2023)(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Rojas Valderrama, Robinson; García Rendón, John JairoThis paper analyzes the correlation between electricity tariffs in Colombia and key economic factors such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI), the Producer Price Index (PPI) and economic growth measured through the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) during the period 2016-2023. The research is based on a quantitative approach employing time series analysis techniques, including stationarity tests, cointegration and error correction (VEC) models, in order to identify patterns of relationship and causality between the variables. The results show that there is a significant relationship between the unit cost of electricity and the price indexes, evidencing a direct impact of inflation on electricity tariffs. It is observed that the behavior of tariffs is mainly influenced by the dynamics of the PPI and CPI, which generates a feedback effect in the Colombian economy, affecting both households and the productive sector. Likewise, a positive correlation between GDP growth and energy consumption was identified, highlighting that the increase in economic activity drives energy demand, which in turn impacts prices.Publicación Análisis de los incentivos salariales asociados a la producción científica y su impacto en la calidad : caso de estudio Universidad del Valle (2019-2023)(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Salazar Villamizar, Carlos Andrés; Puerta Álvarez, Henry DanielThis research analyzes the relationship between the salary incentives established by Decree 1279 of 2002 in Colombia and their impact on the quality of scientific production, using the Universidad del Valle (2019-2023) as a case study. Through a fixed-effects econometric model and complementary statistical techniques, it evaluated how salary increases influence academic publications, using a sample of 478 faculty members and 2,793 publications collected and classified into categories A1, A2, B, and C according to Publindex. The results show a positive and significant correlation between the incentives and publications in high-impact journals (A1 and A2), while publications in lower-impact journals (B and C) present a negative relationship, evidencing an orientation toward quality. Research group leaders and faculty with higher reputations (h-index > 20) concentrate publications in higher categories, with higher salary increases. Adjustments to the incentive system are proposed, such as increasing points for A1 and A2, reducing them for B and C, and integrating metrics like the h-index, to promote scientific excellence, ensure institutional sustainability, and prioritize faculty with a role oriented toward high-quality research.Publicación La violencia contra las mujeres en Medellín : evaluación del programa “Ciudades y espacios seguros para mujeres y niñas”(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Bedoya González, Camila Andrea; Tobón, SantiagoViolence represents high costs for society and affects women to a greater extent. The lack of visibility of the problem, the lack of awareness and good practices in the prevention of sexual harassment, and the various types of violence aggravate the situation. The Women’s Secretariat implemented the program “Safe Cities and Spaces for Women and Girls” to address violence against women, especially sexual crimes. The objective of my study is to evaluate the impact of the intervention “Cities and Safe Spaces for Women and Girls” carried out in the period between 2017 and 2018 in commune 3 (Manrique, Medellín) on the reporting rates of domestic violence and sexual crimes, to determine the effectiveness of the strategy implemented to improve the safety and well-being of women and girls in public spaces. The method I used comprises a quantitative approach employing a technique of impact evaluation called synthetic control. The intervention encourages reporting crimes, possibly because the mechanisms used raise awareness of the problem, reassuring the victims that they feel safe reporting, although the results are imprecise.Publicación Teorías económicas de la justicia. Un ejercicio de análisis económico del derecho aplicado a la distribución de regalías en Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Montoya Ángel, Guillermo León; Vélez Villegas, Juan EstebanPublicación Cambio climático, convergencia económica regional y efectos espaciales : nueva evidencia empírica para Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Astudillo Mendoza, Carlos Alberto; Aristizábal Tamayo, Juan ManuelThe study analyzes the effects of climate change on economic growth and conditional regional convergence processes in Colombia over the past decade. Using panel models applied to 32 departments over the 2008-2019 period, climate variables are incorporated, and spatial dependence is modeled to capture both the direct and indirect effects of climate on economic growth and interregional convergence. Three main findings emerge from the results: (1) the interaction between the deviation from departmental average temperature and convergence, with an estimated coefficient between -0.03 and -0.044, suggests that temperature variations have more significantly impacted economic growth in the more developed departments; (2) evidence of nonlinearities in the climate-growth relationship, with an optimal deviation threshold of 0.32 °C from the historical average, beyond which negative effects on growth are observed; and (3) the presence of spatial spillover effects, where climatic variations in one department impact the economic performance of neighboring regions. These findings contribute to understanding how climate change influences regional growth and convergence patterns, highlighting the importance of implementing mitigation and adaptation measures that consider both local effects and regional interdependencies, as well as the critical thresholds identified in this analysis (0.32°C).Publicación Estrategias para la optimizacion de los gastos operativos y maximizar ingresos : caso municipio de Pueblo Nuevo, Cordoba(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Soto Benavides, Germán Darío; Caicedo Esper, Gonzalo FelipeThe municipality of Pueblo Nuevo, Córdoba, faces significant financial challenges, characterized by a growing disparity between operational expenses and generated income. This issue has led to regular fiscal performance and a strong dependence on national transfers, limiting financial autonomy and the municipality's capacity to effectively manage its finances and provide public services. The main objective of this research is to design strategic measures that optimize efficiency in operational expenses and maximize the municipality's own revenues. The main question is: How can the municipality of Pueblo Nuevo optimize its operational expenses and maximize its revenues to improve fiscal performance and reduce dependence on national transfers? The methodology employed includes a descriptive design that statistically analyzes documentary financial and budgetary data of the municipality. The results reveal a significant increase in operational expenses between 2012 and 2022, especially in personnel expenses and procurement of goods and services. In conclusion, it is recommended to establish a clear legal framework and robust control mechanisms to ensure transparency in the management of public resources. Additionally, promoting public-private partnerships and consolidating procurements is suggested to enhance operational efficiency and increase public confidence in local government.Publicación Análisis del efecto esperado en la demanda debido a la potencial implementación de un cobro por congestión y una restricción vehicular basada en variables ambientales. Un caso de estudio para Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Monterrosa Garcés, Sebastián; Ospina Zapata, Juan Pablo; García Cruz, GustavoPublicación Análisis departamental de los factores productivos y su influencia en los cultivos transitorios en Colombia para el 2022(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) García Guette, David Mauricio; Chacón Indaburo, María Fernanda; Zuluaga Orrego, Juan FernandoThis research determines the main productive factors that influenced the production of transitional crops in the departments of Colombia for 2022. We establish the importance of these to improve the conditions of Colombian agriculture through the prioritization of the most important productive factors in this type of crops, contributing to analytical mechanisms that allow a better articulation of the actors in the territories where transitional crops predominate. The analytical development made it possible to establish through a mixed methodology within which the sequential use of statistical techniques such as the Lasso regression model, Stepwise Regression and Random Forest stands out that access to land and financing were the most significant elements in the production of transitional crops for 2022 with 75.2% 15.4% respectively. The study suggests that these factors be prioritized for the articulation of actors and the prioritization of public goods for productivity and territorial development in the departments of Colombia.Publicación Diseño de un mecanismo alternativo de subasta en mercados oligopólicos para el proceso de negociación de medicamentos de alto costo(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Castrillón Sosa, Fabricio Esteban; Chaparro Cardona, Juan CamiloPublicación Ecuación de salarios del mercado laboral del sector TIC y análisis de su brecha salarial internacional, durante el periodo 2017 - 2023(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Quinchía Vásquez, Eliana María; Chaparro Cardona, Juan CamiloPublicación Transferencias monetarias y acceso a crédito : el caso del programa Ingreso Solidario en Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Betancur Téllez, Sebastián; Álvarez Franco, Pilar Beatriz; Cruz Castañeda, VivianPublicación Capacidades de gestión en relación con la innovación y productividad total de los factores en el sector manufacturero en Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) González Grajales , Samfir; Gómez Sánchez, Diego FernandoPublicación Evaluación de impacto del programa Juventud Manizaleña 2022-2023, en el rendimiento académico de estudiantes de noveno grado de diferentes instituciones educativas públicas de Manizales y Caldas(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Camargo Amezquita, Ricardo Andrés; Hernández Flórez, MónicaPublicación Concentración de mercado en el sector retail y análisis situacional de los supermercados independientes en Pereira y Dosquebradas(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Quintero Varela, Santiago; Atis Ortega, Karen LisethPublicación La accidentalidad vial permeada por el auge de la construcción habitacional(Universidad EAFIT, 2023) Robledo Sánchez, Leonardo; Ceballos Arias, Luz Maribel; Sánchez Saldarriaga, Andrés FelipePublicación Análisis de los programas de adulto mayor en Sabaneta y sus beneficios en la salud física, cognitiva y psicológica(Universidad EAFIT, 2023) Sánchez Henao, Natalia; Jiménez Londoño, Laura María; Ceballos García, Grey Yuliet
