Para la consecucion del objetivo se empleo una metodologia cuantitativa de diseno no experimental y tipo transversal, con un alcance descriptivo-comparativo. Los datos analizados se obtuvieron mediante un muestreo por conveniencia, contando con una participacion total de 50 organizaciones, cuyos sujetos fueron en su mayoria los administradores de las PYMES. De manera general, los resultados muestran minimas diferencias entre los porcentajes obtenidos de las dimensiones en estudio, sugiriendo que las PYMES de la localidad efectivamente comprenden y aplican la responsabilidad social. A manera de conclusion, es de esperarse se incremente el numero de estudios y las actividades de promocion de la RSE, todo ello en beneficio de una sociedad cada vez mas sostenible.

We specifically examine the food industry from Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. We take as reference a total population of 60 companies of this sector. From this population we obtained a total sample of 52 local companies, of which 40 participated in the study (66.7%). In addition, a measurement instrument with Likert-type questions was administered to assess the elements of the administrative process (Cronbach Alfa = .880). The obtained results showed that the local SMEs of this sector do not have a formalized administrative process. This absence provides the opportunity for intervention programs and future studies of explanatory scope for deepening and understanding this type of organization

De manera no probabilistica se seleccionaron un total de 300 grandes empresas de Mexico y Chile. Mediante una prueba de conglomerados no jerarquicos K-medias, se identificaron dos subgrupos de empresas de acuerdo con sus frecuencias de CRS (principios motivacionales [F = 217.1, p < .000], procesos de gestion [F = 990.4, p < .000] y grupos de interes [F = 1317.3, p < .000]). El primer conglomerado integrado por 100 empresas (33%) se denomino perfil bajo de comunicaciones sobre responsabilidad social (PB-CRS) y el segundo, que incluyo a 200 empresas (67%), se denomino perfil alto de comunicaciones sobre responsabilidad social (PA-CRS). En el subgrupo PA-CRS existe una mayor proporcion de empresas de origen ...

Razón suficiente para procurar la calidad en cada una de las etapas del proceso, desde la producción hasta la comercialización, de tal forma que se proporcionen productos saludables y a un precio acorde con la calidad. Por esto es importante el estudio de las Cadenas de Valor y es a partir de la globalización cuando su estudio adquiere mayor relevancia por su impacto en la economía local, considerando los diferentes participantes en los eslabones de la cadena. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue realizar la caracterización de la Cadena de Valor del tomate fresco en México propuesto por el Consejo Nacional de Productores de Tomate A.C. mediante un análisis documental que consideró el análisis del sector de este producto, así como la identificación y caracterización de los eslabones que intervienen en el proceso productivo y de comercialización. Después del análisis de las Cadenas de Valor de tomate se identificaron las actividades primarias, así como las de soporte y apoyo. En el eslabón de comercialización se observó una alta dependencia del intermediario para hacer llegar el producto al consumidor final, siendo este el que tiene el poder de negociación, por esto se pueden clasificar en cadenas agroalimentarias, orientadas al comprador (buyer driven) y Cadenas de Valor relacionales. Para potencializar la operación equilibrada, eficiente y eficaz de la cadena es de importancia la intervención del Estado a través de la política pública que incentive la conformación de Cadenas de Valor para contribuir al desarrollo sustentable de las comunidades en donde tienen presencia. English Abstract: Agriculture is an important activity globally for its contribution to food production for human and livestock consumption. It is important to ensure quality at every stage of the process, from production to marketing, so that healthy products are provided and priced according to quality. Value Chain study becomes more important for its impact on the local economy. Therefore, it is important to study value chains considering the different participants in the chain links. The aim of this study was to perform the characterization of the Value Chain of fresh tomato in Mexico proposed by the National Council of Producers of Tomato NPO (Consejo Nacional de Productores de Tomate A.C.in Spanish). This was done through a documentary analysis that considers this product sector, as well as the identification and characterization of links involved in the production process and marketing. When the analysis of tomato Value Chains was completed, primary activities were identified, as well as support. In the link marketing a high dependence of intermediaries is required to get the product to the consumer.

Taking as a reference the guidelines established by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) for multinational enterprises, this study describes the manner in which the business organizations in the southern region of Sonora utilize the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The results suggest that in addition to contributions to the environment and interest groups to be perceived as socially responsible, companies in this region use CSR strategically and as a method for value creation.

Using logistic regression, it was found that the variables studied manifest significant differences between the student groups with and without aggressive behavior toward peers (R 2 = .39). Challenging behavior (OR = 7.83), parental conflict (OR = 3.77) and Community Violence (OR = 5.36) increase the probability of belonging to the group of aggressors. We conclude that it is necessary to analyze the bullying from an ecological framework that considers variables located in the contexts in which individuals interact.

However, more empirical evidence is still needed to support the association between these, which is why the present study seeks to identify the possible correlation between these variables, especially within companies in the tourism sector in Mexico. To do this, we used a quantitative methodology and a non-experimental design, where, through a non-probabilistic method for convenience, we obtained the participation of a sample of 310 consumers from a total of 38 companies in the tourism sector in a city Located in northern Mexico. The results showed a strong relationship between these variables, supporting the two hypotheses posed within this research, through Pearson correlation and linear regression.

Additionally, the study also sought to determine significant correlations between the social responsibilities of business organizations. By means of a non-probabilistic sampling method, information was collected from a sample of 150 entrepreneurs of the service sector from a city located in a northwestern state of Mexico. The research results contribute with empirical evidence on the orientation of the corporate social responsibility in this country, by identifying differences and significant correlations between the social respons...

By using a simple random sampling, 374 parents of high school students were selected to participate; of these, 173 (46.2%) questionnaires were answered by fathers and 201 (53.7%) by mothers. By using a K-means cluster analysis, two subgroups of parents were identified and denominated by their participation as "Low Involvement" (n = 205) and "Moderate Involvement" (n = 169) respectively, which presented differences in all the types of participation evaluated. However, in both groups a similar profile was identified, which is characterized by a high participation in aspects related to education at home and a low level with regard to aspects concerning school management. Furthermore, a relationship was found between females and higher education, with a greater involvement in the education of children. It is concluded that diverse difficulties exist in families who participate within the school management.

El estudio se realizó en una muestra de estudiantes de escuelas secundarias públicas (N= 700) ubicadas en un municipio de un estado del noroeste de México. Los resultados permitieron obtener un modelo de medición empíricamente sustentable formado por nueve ítems agrupados en dos factores: Reconocimiento y Desplazamiento (c2 = 5.16, p= 0.27; CMIN= 1.29; GFI= .98; CFI= .99; NFI= .97; RMSEA= .05). El instrumento cuenta con evidencias de validez de criterio, ya que establece la diferencia en los factores de reconocimiento (t= 3.49, gl= 137, p< .001) y desplazamiento (t= 3.63, gl= 137, p< .001) en subgrupos de estudiantes con y sin reportes de bullying. Se concluyó que los resultados fortalecen la estructura factorial original de la escala y muestran su utilidad, tanto en la indagación de emociones relacionadas con el del desarrollo moral, como en la identificación de estudiantes involucrados como agresores en situaciones de bullying. Abstract This paper aimed to establish evidence of validity and reliability of the adapted version of the MOSS-SAST questionnaire (Ahmed, 1999) to measure shame management in adolescents in situations of aggression toward peers. The study was conducted with a sample of 700 students from public secondary schools (N= 700) located in a northwestern state municipality of Mexico. Results enabled to obtain an empirically sustainable measuring model formed by two factors: Acknowledgment and Displacement (X2 = 5.16, p= 0.27; CMIN= 1.29; GFI= .98; CFI= .99; NFI= .97; RMSEA= .05). Evidence was obtained to show that the instrument has criterion validity since it is capable to differentiate between subgroups of students with and without reports of bullying in both factors, Acknowledgment (t= 3.49, gl= 137, p< .001) and Displacement (t= 3.63, gl= 137, p< .001). It was concluded that the results strengthen the original factorial structure of the scale and show the usefulness of the same, both for inquiring about emotions related to moral development and for identifying students involved as aggressors in bullying situations.

Through the typical cases method, 25 researchers who worked in six doctorate programs in the region were selected. From the perception of these participants, the functionality of the postgraduate program is affected by external factors, such as the weakness of other participants' actions in the scientific and technological innovation system in the region; and internal factors, in particular, difficulties concerning the formation processes and strategies for academic training and technology transfer into the region.

For this purpose, an evaluation was carried out in four public primary schools of a municipality in the Northwest of Mexico, serving a population of low level economic income. As part of the study, 170 mothers were selected by means of a nonprobabilistic sampling. By using simple linear regression it was found that family dynamics, and the practices of teachers to involve the parents in education, explain a significant part (R 2 = .67) of mothers reporting participation in the education of the children. It was concluded that both variables exert a positive influence in the involvement of mothers in education.

For this, 80 students who achieved scores of the 95th percentile or higher in the Raven's Progressive Matrices test were selected. Two groups were identified in terms of their social self-concept and the competitiveness-oriented achievement motivation variables. The first group (Protected) gathered 51 (63.7%) gifted students who exhibited high levels of social self-concept and a low level of competitiveness-oriented achievement motivation with respect to the second group (At-risk), which gathered 29 (36.3%) gifted students. It was concluded that Protected students possess affective resources that strengthen their social and academic development, whereas At-risk students' variables represent vulnerability factors.

diferencias entre estos en lo relativo a su país de origen, procedencia del capital, extensión en sus comunicaciones y actividad industrial.
De manera no probabilística se seleccionaron un total de 300 grandes empresas de México y Chile. Mediante una prueba de conglomerados
no jerárquicos K-medias, se identificaron dos subgrupos de empresas de acuerdo con sus frecuencias de CRS (principios motivacionales [F = 217.1, p < .000], procesos de gestión [F = 990.4, p < .000] y grupos de interés [F = 1317.3, p < .000]). El primer conglomerado integrado
por 100 empresas (33%) se denominó perfil bajo de comunicaciones sobre responsabilidad social (PB-CRS) y el segundo, que incluyó a 200
empresas (67%), se denominó perfil alto de comunicaciones sobre responsabilidad social (PA-CRS). En el subgrupo PA-CRS existe una mayor proporción de empresas de origen mexicano (X2=38.50, p<.000), de capital de procedencia extranjera (X2=53.40, p<.000), con niveles de

A non-random sample of 769 students was selected from a university in southern Sonora of which 397 (52%) were included in the group with high and 372 (48%) with a low level of violence respectively. By discriminant analysis was found that in both genders groups with low level of dating violence reported greater support and lower tensions in the couple's relationship, also men with lesser violence reported lower substance use and hostile sexism. From the results it can be concluded that dating violence is associated in women with relational variables and in the case of men to a combination of relational and personal aspects.

Para ello, se seleccionó una muestra no probabilística de 436 estudiantes de una universidad pública, la cual fue dividida en dos submuestras (n = 218). Mediante un análisis factorial exploratorio y un análisis factorial confirmatorio, los resultados obtenidos demostraron la validez empírica del modelo. Se propone que al utilizar dicho instrumento se obtenga información empírica suficiente que sirva para la toma de decisiones estratégicas, así como para enriquecer y sustentar las ideas y teorías existentes sobre la RSE, muchas de las cuales no han sido validadas dentro del contexto latinoamericano. Es importante señalar que, debido a la naturaleza del tema y el tipo de escala, existe la posibilidad de cierta deseabilidad social en las respuestas del instrumento. Se concluye que el instrumento puede ser utilizado por otros investigadores para valorar de manera sustentable la RSE.
