| dc.description.abstract | Introduction: Academic dissertations or theses are the first rigorous approach to research conducted by students under the direction of an experienced tutor. Despite the valuable findings found few of them are published. This study aims to determine the prevalence and factors associated with the publication of theses produced by undergraduates. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted that included 85 theses submitted by respiratory therapy students of a Colombian university between 2012 and 2017. To check for publication, the search was conducted using Google Scholar, Medline, SciELO, and Scopus. The statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 24. Results: Only 14% of theses were published, with 25% of these in international journals. The factors associated with the publication included having more than one tutor and that they had previous experience in scientific communication. Conclusions: There is a low frequency of publication of theses. The number of tutors and previous experience in publication were associated with scientific dissemination | |
