    This research focused on analyzing the relationship between support networks and job performance among the administrative staff of the Misael Acosta Solís Higher Technological Institute (ISTMAS). The study aimed to identify the impact of these networks on the efficiency and well-being of the personnel. Methodologically, a quantitative approach was adopted, utilizing descriptive and correlational levels of investigation. Data collection was carried out through a structured survey using a census sampling method, applied to all 35 administrative employees of the institution. The main results obtained revealed a marked contrast between the solidity of the informal support networks (family and friends) and the inconsistency of the formal networks (supervision and colleagues). Informal networks were perceived as highly effective sources of consolation, confidence, and decisional support. Conversely, although overall job performance was high in planning and time management, vulnerabilities were identified in the ability to establish priorities and sustained efficiency. The study concluded that the strength of the extra-work support acted as a psychosocial buffer, maintaining the personnel's intrinsic motivation and positive attitude. However, the insufficiency and polarization of the supervisor's formal support negatively influenced the employees' ability to optimize prioritization and maintain constant efficiency in their tasks. Finally, it was recommended to implement a training program for supervisory personnel focused on supportive leadership and priority clarification, aiming to transform the formal network into a consistent source of support and elevate the quality of institutional performance

    This study investigates the relationship between social fabric and cognitive function in older adults from the Perpetuo Socorro ecclesiastical parish of Ficoa, in Ambato, Ecuador. Using a quantitative, descriptive, and correlational approach, two instruments were applied to a sample of 80 older adults: a self-created and validated "Social Fabric Scale" and the Pfeiffer Questionnaire (SPMSQ) to assess cognitive function. The results revealed that 65% of the participants have a weakened social fabric, characterized by neighborly distrust, community conflicts, and a perception of abandonment by the local government. Regarding cognitive function, it was identified that 58.8% of the population shows signs of cognitive impairment, with mild impairment (32.5%) being the most prevalent. Statistical analysis (Kendall's Tau-b and Chisquare) confirmed a positive and statistically significant correlation between the two variables (τb = .307, p = .009). This indicates that a strong social fabric acts as a protective factor for cognitive function, while a weakened social fabric is associated with a higher risk of cognitive decline. The research concludes by highlighting the need to implement public policies and community interventions that strengthen social support networks and promote cognitive stimulation to improve the quality of life and well-being of the older adult population

    The present study aimed to analyze the main sources of social support available to older adults who are part of the National Network of Older Adults of Ecuador – Tungurahua branch, in the city of Ambato. The research employed a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative and qualitative techniques. Data collection included the standardized MOS Social Support Survey and was carried out using proportional stratified sampling with a total of 136 participants from 9 older adult groups in the urban area of Ambato. Additional methods included focus groups and actor mapping with representatives and professionals linked to this age group. The results show that the overall frequency of social support in this population is notably low, with an average index of only 18.32 out of 100, reflecting an insufficient and fragmented support network, predominantly composed of informal relationships. The dimensions evaluated—emotional, material, affective support, and social relationships—showed low to medium levels in over 90% of cases, indicating the presence of weak and limited ties. Furthermore, significant structural and sociocultural barriers were identified, such as service fragmentation, weak institutional coordination, lack of visibility of older adults by authorities, and limited awareness of rights among the older population. These conditions directly affect their autonomy, quality of life, and social participation. It is concluded that the current support network, both formal and informal, is ineffective in addressing the comprehensive needs of this population, contributing to persistent vulnerability in their living conditions and social integration prospects
