Este artículo profundiza en el estudio de las interacciones entre iguales en el aula universitaria. MÉTODO. Evaluamos los efectos del trabajo en equipo en el rendimiento académico individual en cuatro asignaturas que emplean el Aprendizaje Basado en Equipos (ABE) de los grados de Economía y Administración de Empresas. RESULTADOS. Encontramos que la calificación promedio del resto de los miembros del equipo tiene una asociación positiva y significativa con las calificaciones individuales de los estudiantes. La puntuación de la prueba del estudiante aumenta aproximadamente 0,65 puntos por cada aumento de 1 punto en la nota promedio de sus compañeros de equipo. Esta asociación sigue siendo positiva y significativa, incluso cuando incluimos variables sociodemográficas para controlar las características individuales. También probamos la heterogeneidad de los efectos de los pares por nivel de desempeño individual y de equipo. DISCUSIÓN. Los resultados sugieren que no hay heterogeneidad en la capacidad individual, pero encontramos una diferencia positiva o ligeramente negativa en la magnitud del efecto de los pares para los equipos en el cuartil superior/inferior en relación con los equipos en el medio de la distribución.
