El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en explorar la contribución de las facetas de personalidad, creencias de autoeficacia e intereses que caracterizan a los estudiantes adolescentes con alto y bajo rendimiento académico en diferentes áreas del conocimiento. Mediante la implementación de un análisis discriminante, los resultados de este estudio indican que las tres medidas consideradas contribuyen de manera significativa a explicar, según el dominio, entre un 23% y un 50% del rendimiento académico. Se espera que la información aportada ayude a investigadores y profesionales del ámbito educativo a comprender cuál es el patrón psicológico que facilita el éxito académico.

The objective of this study was to explore the contributions of personality traits, self-efficacy, and interests to the high and low academic performance of adolescent students in different areas of knowledge. Through the implementation of a discriminant analysis, the results of the study show that the three measurements under consideration contribute significantly to the explanation of 23% to 50% of academic performance, depending on the domain. The information gathered is expected to help researchers and professionals in the field of education understand the psychological pattern that facilitates academic success.
