The Impact

Much has been written about the link between HR and performance, however consensus has yet not been found concerning the understanding on how that relationship comes together. Empirically, no direct impact has been found and research has only suggested an indirect impact. Consequently, the Strategic HRM field is particularly interested on the understanding of the mediating variables that impact the organization performance. Besides the integrated and business strategy alignment of the HR function, it should be considered that it is the people (HR) of the organization and not their practices that determine the company´s competitive advantage. (Messersmith & Guthrie, 2010) argue that it is the impact of those practices that represent “the true resource and enable a sustainable advantage over industry rivals”. The objetive of this research proposal is to study the impact of strategic human resources practices on the organization performance through a case study methodology, supported by longitudinal data. Namely, the project aims to achieve a deeper understanding of the variables that affect the process stream during strategy implementation. How the HR practices impact on people? And why human resources are the most valuable asset? These core premises are in line with the most recent economic concerns about people productivity, employment policies and labor flexibility.

Para Determinar

Con el propósito de aportar elementos a una discusión sobre el mejoramiento de la calidad de la educación y sobre los esfuerzos orientados en tal dirección, se estudió el rendimiento escolar de 1,320 estudiantes matriculados en 1999 en el sexto año en escuelas de la Dirección Regional de Enseñanza de San José, Costa Rica. Mediante análisis correlacionales, de varianza simples y multivariados y de regresión múltiple, se procuró determinar en qué medida los factores socioeconómicos y educativos relacionados con el proceso educativo escolar inciden en el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes. Se analizaron datos (a) proporcionados por los padres para determinar la ocupación del padre y de la madre, el nivel educativo del padre y de la madre, el nivel de ingreso económico del hogar y el tamaño de la biblioteca del hogar; (b) aportados por los maestros, con el fin de indagar su grado académico, su antigüedad docente, su salario, el tamaño de la clase, el número de horas lectivas y el número de libros de texto utilizados por cada estudiante en la escuela; (c) proporcionados por los directores de la escuela respecto del presupuesto escolar para materiales didácticos y al tamaño de la biblioteca de la institución; y (d) resultantes de la administración de pruebas comprensivas en las disciplinas de Español y Matemáticas. Los resultados muestran que, a excepción del tamaño de la matrícula escolar, todas las variables independientes involucradas en el estudio están asociadas significativamente con el rendimiento académico. Se propone el mejor modelo predictor del rendimiento académico en la población del estudio.
