Resumen
ROTTENBACHER DE ROJAS, Jan Marc. Validity of the ideological left/right continuum during 2011 Presidential Elections in Lima-Peru. Revista de Psicología [online]. 2012, vol.30, n.2, pp.281-315. ISSN 0254-9247.
This study analyzes the relationship between political ideology, voting behavior and emotional responses after Peruvian presidential elections in 2011. Scales of intolerance for ambiguity, need for closure, right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) and the right-wing political orientation were used to assess right-wing political conservatism. A structural equation model proposes that intolerance of ambiguity and need for closure exert a direct effect on RWA. Also, RWA influences directly the right-wing political orientation, which exerts a direct influence on negative emotional responses and an inverse effect on positive emotional responses after O. Humalas victory. Final discussion focuses on the contemporary relevance of left/right ideological continuum.
Palabras clave : voting behavior; right-wing political orientation; authoritarianism; emotional responses.
