- ItemDeslegitimación del Feminicidio a través de imágenes en Chile(2025) Badilla Rajevic, Manuela; Figueiredo, Ana; Cisternas Alarcón, Pablo; Rivera López, DiegoEn los últimos años, en América Latina, se ha incrementado el número de movimientos ultraconservadores que buscan deslegitimar los logros de los movimientos feministas a favor de la igualdad y en contra de la violencia de género, a través de la promoción de discursos en contra del feminismo y las disidencias sexogenéricas. Este fenómeno está acompañado de campañas políticas, sociales y culturales que desacreditan nociones clave como el feminicidio, el cual representa la expresión más extrema de la violencia de género. En tal sentido, este artículo examina la producción y circulación de imágenes en medios de comunicación digitales y redes sociales sobre casos emblemáticos de feminicidios en Chile, con el objetivo de comprender cómo estas representaciones visuales contribuyen a deslegitimar el fenómeno y a erosionar los avances del movimiento feminista por parte de diferentes actores ultraconservadores. Metodológicamente, se realizó un análisis discursivo-visual con el fin de integrar el análisis crítico del discurso con técnicas analíticas de las artes visuales en tres casos emblemáticos de feminicidios en Chile. Estos casos se seleccionaron a partir de la revisión sistemática de 117 imágenes relacionadas con esta forma extrema de violencia de género registradas entre el 2018 y el 2024. A través de este enfoque interdisciplinario, se identificaron tres estrategias discursivo-visuales predominantes: el predominio del dolor, la erosión del contexto social y la descontextualización del agresor. Los resultados muestran que estas imágenes refuerzan una representación individualizada del feminicidio, lo que debilita su comprensión como fenómeno social y estructural, y favorece discursos conservadores que obstaculizan los avances hacia la justicia de género.
- ItemRepresentations of migration during the sociosanitary crisis: A lexicometric analysis of Chilean digital media(2023) Figueiredo, Ana; Ramirez, Carolina; Ivanova, Anna; Montagna-Letelier, PietroThis manuscript analyzes the representations of migration in digital news media, during the first six months of the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile. In total, 311 news from three digital news outlets were analyzed, which differed in their editorial frames and were among the most visited in Chi-le: El Mostrador, Cooperativa and EMOL. A mixed study (quantitative and qualitative) was carried out, through a lexicometric analysis, which allows analyzing large corpus of data. The findings indi-cate the existence of six vocabulary classes (clus-ters), which illustrate different ways in which the migratory phenomenon was represented during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our main results are dis-cussed regarding the content in each clustter and linked to previous national and international stu-dies. Beyond the pandemic, the findings invite to expand our understanding of migration represen-tation in contexts of crisis.
- ItemTaking Care of Each Other: How Can We Increase Compliance with Personal Protective Measures During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Chile?(2021) Gerber, Monica M.; Cuadrado, Cristobal; Figueiredo, Ana; Crispi, Francisca; Jimenez-Moya, Gloria; Andrade, ValentinaIn the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, personal protective measures (e.g., social distancing, handwashing, and mask wearing) have been adopted as a cornerstone to limit the spread of the disease. Yet, the effectiveness of these measures depends on people's levels of adherence. In this article, we apply social-psychological research to the study of compliance with personal protective measures during the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile. We consider three possible models underlying adherence: (1) sociodemographic and socioeconomic factors, (2) instrumental factors, and (3) normative factors. We draw on data from a longitudinal nonrepresentative panel study (Study 1, n = 32,304) and a cross-sectional representative survey (Study 2, n = 1,078) to explore the impact of these different factors on personal protective measures compliance. Findings show the strongest support for the role of instrumental and normative factors, in that people who comply with protective measures report to a greater extent that relatives and friends comply too and tend to perceive high risk of COVID-19. We finish by proposing policy recommendations to promote effective strategies to contain the spread of the virus.
- ItemTHEORETICAL-METHODOLOGICAL REFLECTIONS ABOUT THE RESEARCH PROCESS WITH MAPUCHE PEOPLE IN CHILE(2023) Marilican-Contreras, Maria Fernanda; Rojas-Mora, Paloma; Favi, Simon; Oliva-Vasquez, Eloy; Perez, Juan Fernando Pavez; Rocha, Carolina; Montagna-Letelier, Pietro; Figueiredo, AnaThis article proposes a theoretical-methodological reflection, drawing from social psychology, on the challenges involved in the research process with indigenous population, particularly with people belonging to the Mapuche indigenous group. We emphasize the ethical, theoretical challenges and methodological tensions that emerge due to the hegemonic forms of knowledge production of psychology, which are framed within postcolonial logics, which privilege the Western perspective over that of indigenous peoples and, at the same time, when implemented, reproduce practices of domination and racialization that have their origin in the colonial past. Finally, we propose a reflection with the aim to rethink our relationships with the participants and our investigative practices from a decolonial perspective.
