DOI: https://doi.org/This study identifies the perceptions of a sample of students who are trained as teachers in the basic education career and who have been trained in scientific and research activity. The design of the study is descriptive, in the sense that the perceptions are characterized as the result of the processes of enculturation, especially at the level of the educational system. These perceptions, or the mental image about the way university students think and act, are identified through a Likert scale, with a reliability of 0.816 (Cronbach's alpha). The present study was conducted using a questionnaire administered during the sixth cycle of Basic Education, parallels A, B, and C of the Faculty of Education Sciences at the State University of Bolívar, in the academic period 2024-2024. The findings from this deliberate sample demonstrate the predominance of a classical approach over scientific and research activity. This finding is consistent with results reported in related research and from other regions.
