    Emociones y whistleblowing: miedo y enojo como predictores de la denuncia de actos de corrupción

    No full text
    La literatura en torno al whistleblowing ha explorado de manera tangencial los elementos psico-organizacionales que influyen en la decisión de los individuos a reportar actos irregulares. Al considerar que las emociones influyen en los procesos cognitivos y por ende, en las actitudes y comportamientos de las personas, en este estudio exploro el efecto diferenciado del miedo y el enojo como detonadores o inhibidores de la denuncia de actos de corrupción. A partir de un estudio experimental aplicado a servidores públicos encuentro que aquellas personas que experimentan enojo son más propensas a denunciar un acto de corrupción en comparación con aquellas que experimentan miedo, lo anterior cuando la intensidad de la emoción es alta. Estos hallazgos brindan evidencia para generar campañas de comunicación que busquen fomentar la denuncia de actos de corrupción a partir de las emociones. Además, introduce en el debate la “gestión organizacional de las emociones” para moldear las actitudes de las personas y guiar su comportamiento para la búsqueda de determinados fines organizacionales

    Effects of emotional and utilitarian appeals on attitude change towards forced rehabilitation for drug abuse

    A well-established literature in the field of political psychology has studied the determinants of support for Human Rights. To contribute to the literature focused on support for rights, I study the effects of emotional and utilitarian appeals on attitude change towards Forced Rehabilitation (FR) for drug abuse through a survey experiment. In this paper, I argue that it is possible to modify the attitudes towards FR by appealing to the public’s emotions (d = 0.28 for hypothesis H1) and utilitarian values (d = 0.23 for hypothesis H2). By changing citizen’s attitudes towards FR, people who use drugs might benefit from 1) obtaining a lower probability of being forced into rehabilitation by family members or judiciary authorities and 2) less resistance from the public to the promotion and implementation of non-coercive drug treatment policies

    Clientelistic mobilization and unequal turnout

    ¿Qué factores aminoran la inequidad de participación electoral? ¿Las dinámicas informales, como la movilización clientelar, pueden reducir la brecha socioeconómico-electoral? A lo largo de la tesis argumento que no sólo debemos estudiar los efectos de las reglas formales sobre el comportamiento electoral. Por ello, pongo a prueba si las ofertas clientelares disminuyen la diferencia de participación entre ciudadanos de diferentes niveles socioeconómicos. A través de tres capítulos empíricos con diferentes aproximaciones, muestro que la movilización clientelar reduce la brecha socioeconómico-electoral. La compra de voto y compra de participación electoral incentivan el voto de los niveles socioeconómicos bajos, sin afectar la participación de los ciudadanos de niveles socioeconómicos altos.What factors reduce unequal turnout? Can informal dynamics, such as clientelistic mobilization, reduce the socio-economic-electoral gap? Throughout the thesis I argue that we should not only study the effects of formal rules on electoral behavior. Therefore, I test whether clientelistic offers decrease the participation gap between citizens of different socioeconomic levels. Through three empirical chapters with different approaches, I show that clientelistic mobilization reduces the socioeconomic-electoral gap. In the first chapter, I conducted a panel analysis using an original measurement of the unequal turnout variable with CSES data and the V-Dem dataset. I found that clientelism has the same effect as compulsory voting on unequal turnout. In the second chapter of my thesis, I test my hypothesis in Latin America at an individual level using data from LAPOP and estimating a fixed-effects model. The evidence supports that vote-buying and turnout-buying moderate the effect of education and wealth on the probability of voting in Latin-American countries, even more than party identification. The final chapter explores the micro-fundaments of the effects of clientelistic mobilization on poor and wealthy citizens. I did several interviews with political actors and citizens in a Mexican municipality which open the black box to answer why poor and uneducated citizens vote in certain moments. In short, vote buying and turnout buying incentivize the vote of lower socioeconomic levels, without affecting the turnout of citizens of higher socioeconomic levels. This novel topic brings attention to the importance of new approaches when studying underrepresentation and elections

    Ausentismo escolar, género, rendimiento académico, menstruación, desigualdadMuchas adolescentes de países de ingresos bajos y medios carecen de apoyos escolares adecuados para controlar la menstruación, influyendo en su desarrollo psicosocial dentro de la escuela. Este estudio presenta evidencia sobre el potencial efecto positivo de la disponibilidad gratuita de toallas sanitarias en escuelas secundarias públicas para reducir la ansiedad, la preocupación, la distracción y la disposición de regresar a casa de las estudiantes. También se presenta información sobre el impacto que tendría la disponibilidad de toallas sanitarias de forma gratuita o con costo para aumentar el rendimiento escolar.Many adolescent girls in low and middle-income countries lack adequate school supports to manage menstruation, influencing their psychosocial development within school. This study presents evidence on the potential positive effect of free availability of sanitary pads in public secondary schools in reducing anxiety, worry, distraction and willingness to go home among female students. Information is also presented on the impact of free or paid sanitary pads availability in increasing school performance

    Understanding trade pathways to target biosecurity surveillance

    Increasing trends in global trade make it extremely difficult to prevent the entry of all potential invasive species (IS). Establishing early detection strategies thus becomes an important part of the continuum used to reduce the introduction of invasive species. One part necessary to ensure the success of these strategies is the determination of priority survey areas based on invasion pressure. We used a pathway-centred conceptual model of pest invasion to address these questions: what role does global trade play in invasion pressure of plant ecosystems and how could an understanding of this role be used to enhance early detection strategies? We concluded that the relative level of invasion pressure for destination ecosystems can be influenced by the intensity of pathway usage (import volume and frequency), the number and type of pathways with a similar destination, and the number of different ecological regions that serve as the source for imports to the same destination. As these factors increase, pressure typically intensifies because of increasing a) propagule pressure, b) likelihood of transporting pests with higher intrinsic invasion potential, and c) likelihood of transporting pests into ecosystems with higher invasibility. We used maritime containerized imports of live plants into the contiguous U.S. as a case study to illustrate the practical implications of the model to determine hotspot areas of relative invasion pressure for agricultural and forest ecosystems (two ecosystems with high potential invasibility). Our results illustrated the importance of how a pathway-centred model could be used to highlight potential target areas for early detection strategies for IS. Many of the hotspots in agricultural and forest ecosystems were within major U.S. metropolitan areas. Invasion ecologists can utilize pathway-centred conceptual models to a) better understand the role of human-mediated pathways in pest establishment, b) enhance current methodologies for IS risk analysis, and c) develop strategies for IS early detection-rapid response programs
