LOPERA, Isabel Cristina  and  ALVAREZ, Jonathan Echeverri. Decisions, well-being and human development in departments of student well-being. Discussion of findings. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.3, pp. 247-257. ISSN 1413-294X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20190026.

The objective of this qualitative study was to explore the architecture for decision making promoted in the institutional programs of welfare and human development, offered in three institutions of higher education in the city of Medellin and the municipality of Bello in Antioquia, Colombia. To achieve this, we got the information about the institutional programs. Then, we extract the components associated with the architecture for decision making. Fifteen semi-structured interviews were carried out with leaders in charge of institutional programs at the universities under study. For the analysis, we used a process of coding and triangulation of the interviews. This information was contrasted with the documentary review and empirical research, which emphasize the importance of designing contexts to increase human well-being. Finally, we suggest a training program in decision making for the architects in charge of these areas.
