REYES FABELA, Ana María. Professional Attitude of the Industrial Designer Towards Sustainable Development. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.25, e002.  Epub 03-Oct-2022. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v13i25.1236.

The objective of this research was to analyze the attitude of the industrial designer through his professional act towards the objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The assumption that guided this research considers that the features that define the attitude of the professional industrial designer are consistent with the precepts of sustainable development. The research was carried out under the rigorous accompaniment of Talcott Parsons's theory of social action. In the first instance, it was directed from an analytical plane and later it was redirected towards an empirical plane. Through a questionnaire of 206 questions and a Likert-type scaling, the professional act of the industrial designer was measured. It was found, among other findings, that the industrial design professional is highly analytical and rational, that they do not superimpose the status that their profession implies on their professional action and that they use an emotional-rational attitude that allows them to face the different circumstances of the context and move towards sustainable development.
