Abstract
In this competitive scenario of the educational system, higher education institutions use intelligent learning tools and techniques to predict the factors of student academic performance. Given this, the article aims to determine the supervised learning model for the predictive system of personal and social attitudes of university students of professional engineering careers. For this, the Machine Learning Classification Learner technique is used by means of the Matlab R2021a software. The results reflect a predictive system capable of classifying the four satisfaction classes (1: dissatisfied, 2: not very satisfied, 3: satisfied and 4: very satisfied) with an accuracy of 91.96%, a precision of 79.09%, a Sensitivity of 75.66% and a Specificity of 92.09%, regarding the students' perception of their personal and social attitudes. As a result, the higher institution will be able to take measures to monitor and correct the strengths and weaknesses of each variable related to satisfaction with the quality of the educational service.
