Matemática universitaria lógica matemática teoría de conjuntos evaluación cognitiva. The main purpose of this study was to explore to what extent supplementary academic aid —tutors, support sessions, parallel courses, and/or private classes— in addition to the regular class, influence students’ comprehensive math performance as demonstrated on the written exams of the course Introduction to Mathematics, at the beginning of their university studies. A sample of 275 first semester students in the School of Economics and Social Science at the University of Carabobo in Venezuela was selected. Based on a non-experimental ex post facto statistical analysis, the results show some evidence of variation in the dimensions of math performance due to the type of academic aid used by the students to complement the course activities. Additionally, some differences were found between the traditional assessment (math achievement) of math content and the experimental assessment method (math performance). El propósito principal del estudio fue explorar en qué medida los apoyos académicos adicionales a la cátedra (tutorías, preparadurías, cursos paralelos, y/o clases particulares) influyen en el desempeño matemático integral de los estudiantes de recién ingreso a la universidad en la asignatura Introducción a la Matemática, y se evidencian en sus exámenes escritos. Se seleccionó una muestra de 275 alumnos del primer semestre de la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Sociales de la Universidad de Carabobo en Venezuela. Con base a un análisis estadístico no experimental ex post facto, los resultados muestran evidencia de variación en las dimensiones del desempeño matemático, derivado del soporte usado por los estudiantes como complemento de sus actividades de cátedra. Además, se encontraron diferencias entre la evaluación tradicional (rendimiento matemático) y la evaluación experimental (desempeño matemático).
