Ni herois ni víctimes. Representació social del càncer i dels malalts de càncer
2012
Les representacions socials del malalt oncològic proporcionen les nocions i les teories que fan estables i eficaces les relacions que estableix amb el seu entorn. Aquest procés té repercussions en l'estigmatització i la categorització dels malalts oncològics que sovint són vistos i es veuen a si mateixos com a víctimes o com a herois. Tanmateix, malgrat la rellevància del problema en la psicologia social, són pocs els estudis que s'han preocupat d'analitzar- lo. El present article té per objecte l'anàlisi de la representació social del càncer i del malalt oncològic en la població espanyola. Amb aquest fi utilitza associacions lliures i preguntes obertes realitzades a una mostra de dos-cents…

La valoración del Practicum en la formación inicial: un estudio de casos internacional en el área de Geografía e Historia
2020
El acceso a la función docente es asunto regulado por las instituciones administrativas, pero depende en gran medida de las competencias, actitudes y expectativas personales. Los estudios comparativos que mostramos revelan que las representaciones sociales que determinan un sentido práctico del saber escolar inciden en las opiniones de los actuales profesores de Secundaria y en los que aspiran a serlo. Este fenómeno subjetivo, que incide en las competencias profesionales, se interpreta cualitativamente con una metodología de casos, con la comparación de estos a partir de las encuestas y memorias del Practicum en tres universidades de Brasil, Colombia y España. El análisis sobre objetivos y …
Méconnaissance du politique, sciences sociales et représentations sociales : le cas des violences scolaires
2007
A scientific reflexion on the question of school violences, recurring in the media field, cannot forget, according to us, an analysis of its journalistic treatment and its potential effects on the social representations. The refusal of the policy in/by the school institution and its corollary the depoliticization of school violences reinforce the ignorance of the actors. Social sciences, as peripheral sciences, miss often debates, even aren't legitimate. We have to confront «the media invention» of school violence with social sciences knwoledge.

INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE: PERCEPTION AND REPRESENTATION OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN GUANAJUATO. A QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
Intimate partner violence and domestic violence refer to the violation of women’s rights, often provoked by socio-cultural norms based on a patriarchal matrix. In Mexican society, in particular, gender-based violence affects the physical and psychological well-being of Mexican women.
