Abstract

This article analyses the perception of conflict held by students in the Faculty of Education at the three campuses of the University of Granada, and evaluates the different notions held by those who have received specific training in this subject and those who have not during their initial training process. An ad hoc questionnaire has been developed, with an empirical-analytical study and Ex Post Facto correlational design. The sample covers 1,281 subjects. The results indicate a negative perception and conceptualization, poor realization of the educational guides on subjects that include competences related to the theme of Conflict and/or the Culture of Peace, and the influence of previous experiences.

Resumen

En este artículo se analiza la percepción del conflicto del alumnado de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación de los tres campus de la Universidad de Granada y comprobar las diferencias existentes en dicho concepto, entre los que han recibido formación específica de esta temática y aquellos que no la han tenido durante su todavía proceso de formación inicial. Se ha elaborado un cuestionario ad hoc, con una investigación empírico-analítico y un diseño correlacional Ex Post Facto. La muestra es de 1,281 sujetos. Los resultados indican una percepción y conceptualización negativa, la escasa concreción de las guías docentes de las materias que contemplan competencias relacionadas con la temática del Conflicto y/o con la Cultura de Paz y la posible influencia de las experiencias previas.
