Description
Esteban Reyes and co-authors studied teacher abuse and student performance in a Peruvian medical school in this 2026 paper. The survey covered 255 students at a private university in Lima. It measured abuse from teachers, students' sense of empowerment, and their grades on a standard scale.
About seventy-two percent performed adequately. Most reported low abuse, and over ninety percent felt highly empowered. After adjustment, heavy abuse still cut the chance of adequate performance. Female students also fared worse on that measure, while older students fared better. Empowerment, surprisingly, showed no clear link to grades once other factors were counted. The authors urge schools to name and curb academic abuse.
