Abstract

Treatment adherence is a central axis in the health agenda. In the framework of the SARS CoV-2 pandemic, it is necessary to predict this phenomenon. The objective of the present work was to contrast a model of structural equations. A confirmatory, psychometric and cross-sectional work was carried out with a selection of 100 students, considering their participation in the social service and professional practices in public hospitals in central Mexico. A factorial structure was found that explained 62% of the total variance, suggesting the contrast of the model in other scenarios.
