Resumen

El presente artículo presenta una propuesta metodológica para estudiar la adopción, aceptación e integración de la inteligencia artificial generativa (IA) en instituciones de educación superior derivada del análisis de la literatura especializada y que contempla siete dimensiones de análisis: (1) factores moderadores; (2) retos y barreras para la integración de la IA en procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje; (3) expectativas de desempeño; (4) expectativas de esfuerzo; (5) influencia social; (6) condiciones facilitadoras; y (7) implicaciones éticas. Dicha propuesta se basa en la Teoría Unificada de Aceptación y Uso de la Tecnología (UTAUT) y se articula bajo un diseño de métodos mixtos de tipo explicativo secuencial que combina una fase cuantitativa, para la cual se incluye aquí un cuestionario validado y una fase cualitativa, que se centra en la realización de entrevistas a profundidad. Este enfoque busca identificar los factores que influyen en la intención de uso y adopción efectiva de la IA, así como las percepciones, resistencias y condiciones que intervienen en los procesos de integración tecnológica. Finalmente, se concluye con la presentación de algunos resultados observados en la literatura especializada sobre el uso y la implementación de la IA en contextos de educación superior, con el propósito de sintetizar las tendencias que otros investigadores han encontrado en estudios similares, al respecto de las siete dimensiones de análisis presentadas en este artículo. De este modo, la propuesta ofrece una guía metodológica adaptable a distintas instituciones de educación superior, orientada a promover su estudio reflexivo y sustentado.
