Resumen
La Cultura del Cuidado es un concepto novedoso, que describe el compromiso
con el mejoramiento, la calidad, el cuidado y la transparencia hacia el bienestar
animal, el cual es promovido a través de una mentalidad y un comportamiento
que trasciende el cumplimiento de normas y regulaciones. Esta visión
revoluciona el manejo, cuidado y uso de animales de laboratorio, porque busca
fortalecer la interacciones humano-humano y animal-humano, promover el
juicio crítico de las personas respecto a la reducción del daño y el refinamiento
de los procedimientos experimentales, enmarcando los valores ideales para
generar una mayor empatía y conexión emocional, mejorando el bienestar de
los animales y la obtención de datos en las investigaciones científicas. Es por
esto que el objetivo de esta investigación fue implementar un Programa
Institucional de Cuidado y Uso de Animales y observar si se lograba un
reconocimiento y una comprensión de la Cultura del Cuidado en una institución
científica. Se aplicó una encuesta antes y después de la realización del
programa de forma voluntaria a los participantes, con los datos se evaluó el
impacto que tuvo el programa, mediante dos análisis de Anova, que midieron
la eficacia del programa y las posibles incidencias de las variables categóricas
en el modelo experimental. Los resultados obtenidos reflejaron una diferencia
significativa en el efecto que tuvo el programa en los participantes (p = 4.545e06), y una incidencia significativa de la variable “Profesión” en el
reconocimiento de la Cultura del Cuidado en el modelo experimental. Estos
resultados validan el modelo propuesto y apoyan los trabajos realizados
previamente, sugiriendo que la implementación de un modelo educativo que
tenga como base la Cultura del Cuidado, fortalece el reconocimiento de este
nuevo término y genera cambios significativos en la estructura ética y moral
de lo trabajadores que utilizan animales con fines científicos.
The Culture of Care is a novel concept that describes the commitment to improvement, quality, care and transparency towards animal welfare, which is promoted through a mentality and behavior that transcends compliance with rules and regulations. This vision revolutionizes the handling, care and use of laboratory animals, because it seeks to strengthen human-human and animalhuman interactions, promote critical judgment of people regarding the reduction of harm and the refinement of experimental procedures, framing the ideal values to generate greater empathy and emotional connection, improving the welfare of animals and obtaining data in scientific research. That is why the objective of this research was to implement an Institutional Program for the Care and Use of Animals and to observe if a recognition and understanding of the Culture of Care was achieved in a scientific institution. A survey was applied before and after the completion of the program voluntarily to the participants, with the data the impact of the program was evaluated, by means of two Anova analyzes, which measured the effectiveness of the program and the possible incidences of the variables categorical in the experimental model. The results obtained reflected a significant difference in the effect that the program had on the participants (p =…), and a significant incidence of the variable “Profession” in the recognition of the Culture of Care in the experimental model. These results validate the proposed model and support the work carried out previously, suggesting that the implementation of an educational model based on the Culture of Care strengthens the recognition of this new term and generates significant changes in the ethical and moral structure of the workers who they use animals for scientific purposes. Works like these will provide a basis for future research, to establish a new national culture on the use and care of laboratory animals, being able to work with a basis of respect and empathy for beings who feel like us.
