Creencias y Normas en México: Una Actualización del Estudio de las Premisas Psico-Socio-Culturales
2015
The study of cultures involves researching the concepts of beliefs and norms in order to reveal the content of the rules that coordinate human behavior, a task often pursued through an approach based on psycho-socio-cultural premises (PSCP; Diaz-Guerrero, 2002). The basis of the ethnopsychology of Mexicans is formed by the original premises of the family (Diaz-Guerrero, 1994), which lack norms or beliefs to regulate the behavior of couples, the current gender situation, or aspects of postmodern life. The goal of the present study was to investigate PSCPs in a manner that would include norms and beliefs. In order to do this, items were taken from 4 inventories and administered to a non probabilistic purposive sample of 1624 men and women of various educational levels, living in 6 different regions of Mexico. The analysis of variance and the correlation analysis ( r ) conducted reveal the predominance of sexism, machismo and marianismo , which are indicative of a stronger attachment to the culture in people belonging to more traditional ecosystems, basically people with lower education and males.
