    Salience, Self-Salience, and Discursive Opportunities
    (IGI Global, 2020-01-01)
    Peruvian electoral campaigning, centered on the candidate and lacking a significant connection with contention politics occurring in years previous to the poll, is a very diverse exercise, trying to achieve success through a variety of actions while facing a common-sense interpretation of politics as unreliable and not trustworthy. This fixes an agenda from which candidates have to develop their campaigns, focused on convincing others of their commitment to specific groups and willingness to change whatever does not directly affect each specific constituency that is being appealed to for voting. This behavior is replicated even in Facebook, where candidates try to fix their own issues as salient, but usually failing to respond to the media-set agenda. The potential effectiveness of social media, particularly Facebook, would rest in using discursive opportunities emerging during the campaign to construct self-salience, countering the biases of conventional media.

    Psychometric properties of the positivity scale in a Latin American sample: positivity as a unidimensional personality variable
    (BioMed Central Ltd, 2026-12-01)
    Despite extensive research in European and North American contexts, studies on positivity in Latin America remain limited. The sociocultural dynamics of the region present unique challenges that may shape the expression and relevance of positivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Positivity Scale, a self-report measure that assesses the tendency to view and approach life and experiences from a positive perspective, in Latin American population. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional instrumental study. The research included 1,017 adults from Mexico, Colombia, and Peru who were recruited through online platforms. The participants completed a survey including a sociodemographic questionnaire, the P-Scale, and measures of self-esteem (RSES), satisfaction with life (SWLS), optimism (LOT-R), depressive symptoms (PHQ-2), and negative affect (PANAS). Confirmatory factor analysis was used to evaluate the scale's unidimensional structure. Measurement invariance across countries and sex was assessed. Convergent and divergent validity was evaluated through correlation analyses. Reliability was examined via Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega. RESULTS: Confirmatory factor analysis of the P-scale revealed that the removal of item 6, which had a low factor loading, and the inclusion of a covariance between items 1 and 4 significantly improved the model fit. The final model demonstrated acceptable fit indices, with standardized factor loadings ranging from .45 to .85. Invariance testing by country and sex remained within acceptable thresholds, supporting the scale´s configural, metric and scalar invariance. Reliability analyses demonstrated strong internal consistency (α = .86, ω = .86). Correlation analyses revealed significant positive relationships of positivity with self-esteem, life satisfaction and negative correlations with depressive symptomatology and negative affect. CONCLUSIONS: The findings support the generality of the positivity construct while also highlighting the importance of cultural adaptations to ensure measurement precision. By having a validated P-Scale, researchers and practitioners can better understand and promote well-being in populations facing unique sociocultural challenges.

    Cavalheiros em uniforme. Futebol, nacionalismo e rivalidade ritualizada entre Peru e Chile, 1932-1933
    (Universidad Nacional de Colombia::will be referenced::ROR-ID, 2025-12-31)
    Objective: To historically analyze how, during the early 1930s, a football rivalry between Peru and Chile was consolidated, combining elements of sporting competition and gestures of diplomatic rapprochement, promoted through the symbolic field of sport. Methodology: Using primary (press from both countries) and secondary sources, the study employs the historical method and documentary review to analyze how Colo Colo's international tours functioned as catalysts for national discourses about playing style, allowing the Peruvian press to construct an image of its own football identity vis-à-vis the Chilean press. Originality: The article provides a little-explored perspective on this rivalry before the first official match between their national teams. Thus, it proposes the concept of “gentlemanly amateurism” as a key to understanding the sporting ethos of the period and examines how journalistic discourse not only chronicled but also shaped a style of play valued aesthetically and as a form of identity by fans. Conclusions: Soccer operated as a space for paradiplomacy, promoting symbolic reconciliation after the signing of the Treaty of Lima; however, this reconciliation did not eliminate tensions, but rather reconfigured them in a ritualized manner. The study reveals how sports discourses can convey narratives of national identity that endure over time.
