This study aims to analyze the role played by social networks, as de-territorialized spaces, in the manifestation of emotional intelligence concerning the positioning of hegemonic masculinity among men in Quito. The research design is non-experimental and cross-sectional, using a quantitative method with a descriptive-correlational scope. Two data collection instruments were used, the MASC-1 scale and the Emotional Intelligence Test. The sample consisted of 306 men from the city of Quito. The results were 41,2% each in medium and high positioning on hegemonic masculinity, and 100% of participants use social networks, mainly Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. On Emotional Intelligence, there is a high percentage of the Attention Factor and a low percentage in Excellence concerning the demonstration and ability to express emotions. There is a significant correlation between the use of social networks and a more remarkable ability to understand and recognize emotions in the participants. © 2023 IEEE.

The general objective of this research work was to determine the feasibility of incorporating EVA as a didactic alternative in the teaching of critical medicine in postgraduate students. The research paradigm was of a propositive critical type with a mixed descriptive, explanatory, and correlational approach. The study population was selected through an intentional sampling for convenience and was made up of 90 students and 23 teachers of the postgraduate degree in Critical Medicine from two private universities in Ecuador. The research instruments used were two multiple-choice surveys with a single response on a Likert scale that, prior to their application, were validated and are reliable. The results obtained made it possible to determine the feasibility of incorporating EVAs in the academic training of critical medicine postgraduate students, thus also allowing the reduction of hospital absence times due to the academic training received virtually. © 2022, Associacao Iberica de Sistemas e Tecnologias de Informacao.
