Resumen
Este estudio desarrolló un modelo de dinámica de sistemas para analizar las interacciones entre estrés percibido, rendimiento académico, ansiedad social y apoyo social en universitarios. La calibración combinó datos sintéticos con parámetros derivados de literatura científica. Las simulaciones mostraron que el apoyo social redujo principalmente el estrés, mientras que la disminución de la ansiedad social favoreció en mayor medida el rendimiento. El escenario combinado produjo la respuesta global más favorable. Las perturbaciones académicas generaron efectos temporales sobre ansiedad y desempeño, seguidos de recuperación progresiva. Los resultados constituyen evidencia computacional y requieren validación posterior con datos longitudinales de estudiantes reales universitarios.
