Item type:Publication, Girl YouTubers in Peru as economic agents negotiating gender and class identities(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2021-01-01)The study examines the role of children as producers, distributors, and consumers in the digital realm. Additionally, it also explores class and gender identities they create and perform in this modality. We focus on young female YouTubers (8–11 years old) from Peru, a country that has experienced significant economic expansion in the first decades of the 21st century. The study analyzes 40 videos created by five girl YouTubers. The discussion addresses the economic role children perform in the digital economy as they produce value through content creation, distribute goods, and engage in globalized consumption. The paper also discusses the ways girls display gender and class identities in their products and their consumption patterns. Throughout the analysis, we use the key concept of children’s agency; the discussion reveals both the concept’s reach and limitations in the context of consumer culture, gender regimes, and neoliberal policies. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Culture moderates the relationship between self-control ability and free will beliefs in childhood(Elsevier, 2021-05-01)We investigate individual, developmental, and cultural differences in self-control in relation to children's changing belief in “free will” – the possibility of acting against and inhibiting strong desires. In three studies, 4- to 8-year-olds in the U.S., China, Singapore, and Peru (N = 441) answered questions to gauge their belief in free will and completed a series of self-control and inhibitory control tasks. Children across all four cultures showed predictable age-related improvements in self-control, as well as changes in their free will beliefs. Cultural context played a role in the timing of these emerging free will beliefs: Singaporean and Peruvian children's beliefs changed at later ages than Chinese and U.S. children. Critically, culture moderated the link between self-control abilities and free will beliefs: Individual differences in self-control behaviors were linked to individual differences in free will beliefs in U.S. children, but not in children from China, Singapore or Peru. There was also evidence of a causal influence of self-control performance on free will beliefs in our U.S. sample. In Study 2, a randomly assigned group of U.S. 4- and 5-year-olds who failed at two self-control tasks showed reduced belief in free will, but a group of children who completed free will questions first did not show changes to self-control. Together these results suggest that culturally-acquired causal-explanatory frameworks for action, along with observations of one's own abilities, might influence children's emerging understanding of free will. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Social dynamics, gendered subjectivities, and surreptitious acts of agency from women to face intimate partner violence in a rural community of Peru(SAGE Publishing, 2022-12-06)The article analyzes women's inner subjective processes while engaged in male-to-female intimate partner violence (IPV) situations. Through in-depth interviews with 12 women who had suffered violence in a rural community in Peru, it examines three topics: social dynamics that simultaneously contribute to resist within and openly question IPV, the transformations of hegemonic femininity in the community and the implications on their gendered subjectivities, and women's surreptitious acts and processes of agency to recalibrate power within their situation of IPV. In conclusion, women experience inner psychic tensions about themselves, their partners, and their relationships, which enables them to question IPV while resisting within the violent situation. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Amazonian Indigenous Artists as Agents of Interface: Artworks, Networks, and Curation Strategies in the COVID-19 Crisis(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-10-31)In this article, I analyse how the COVID-19 crisis crystalised and fuelled the vigorous role of Amazonian indigenous artists as, what I call, “agents of interface”, enabling connectivity, translation, networking and bridging information, ontologies, claims, and aesthetics. With the pandemic’s spatial restrictions and the reduction of global activity in the arts with a return to focusing on the local, I argue that it is important to look at interfaces as arenas from which to understand further reconfigurations, actions, and values in the arts. Based on the project and exhibition Ite!/Neno!/Here!: Responses to COVID-19 co-curated by the indigenous artist Rember Yahuarcani and me, and on other various initiatives, this paper explores how Amazonian indigenous artists became crucial agents of the interface in four main arenas providing first-hand, real-time information of the impact of COVID-19 at Amazonian urban and rural settings, channelling networks of aid and curation, connecting different agents and worlds, and engaging in curatorial collaborations. I argue that by acting at the interface, artists have reinforced their voices, while pushing for redefinitions of and positions in the art system and suggest that the COVID-19 crisis has introduced a new moment in the configuration of Peru’s art scene. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Relational and situated agency in communal women in Peru.(American Psychological Association, 2025-01-01)The social history and experience of communal women in Peru are characterized by exclusion, discrimination, and violence, even more so if they are women affected by the internal armed conflict. However, this does not diminish their capacity for agency and mobilization, as well as their contribution to community organization. In this article, we present the results of a collaborative work with women from the community of Sacsamarca located in the southern Andean region of Peru. Our approach puts community psychology in dialogue with decolonial feminism. The methodology includes field ethnography and life histories. We argue that the women of this community have developed a relational and situated agency, which is sustained by their membership in a larger collective and can resist multiple systems of oppression present to this day. It moves away from the notion of Euro and egocentric agency-emphasis on the individual competence-because it stems from a different conception of human, defined as a being in relation, an "I-we." Relational agency, rooted in community capital inherent to women's individual and social cultural heritage, encompasses material support, knowledge, and skills from family and community. In this sense, the present study shows that, despite having suffered patriarchal and colonial violence, these women possess a remarkable capacity for action and mobilization. Their agency, which is relational and contextual, is manifested in four areas that must be taken into account when creating development and well-being policies. This is meant to promote the growth of these women's resources and empowerment. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).1
