    Academic Writing of Graduate Students of International Relations in Perú: Social Representations and Literacy Practices
    (Universidad Catolica Silva Henriquez, 2023-01-01)
    This article analyzes and interprets the representations and practices of university academic writing in a postgraduate program at a Peruvian public institution. Methodologically, this is mixed research. Fifteen students of a master’s program in International Relations were interviewed and a questionnaire was applied. The results show that the academic is represented mainly associated with cognitive skills and normativist patterns. Among the practices, it is found that they follow routines, outlines and reading strategies to guide their writing. The article concludes that students reproduce and value the conventions and traditions of the standard variety for the professional image they project, without taking advantage of the potential of critical literacy.

    Insights from Sociolinguistics to Rethink Literacy as a Social Practice
    (Universidad de Antioquia, 2026-02-23)
    This article aims to bring a theoretical contribution to the paradigm of literacy as a social practice by drawing on insights from sociolinguistics. My aim is to strengthen the literacy paradigm making it increasingly coherent. Specifically, I discuss two concepts from contemporary critical sociolinguistics, namely, language ideologies, understood as a broad category that mediates between language practice and context; and registers, reconceptualized in recent sociolinguistic work as dynamic repertoires constructed through language ideologies and closely linked to the enactment of identities in social practices. On the one hand, these notions help bridge the gap between text and context and encourage recognition of the ongoing instability of semiotic resources, which are sometimes perceived as fixed or even natural. On the other hand, both concepts contribute to a more complex and nuanced understanding of the relationship between texts as objects, the practices in which they are always embedded, and the ideological forces that produce them. The article illustrates this theoretical discussion through a case study of Quechua in teacher education in the Peruvian Andes and concludes by outlining pedagogical implications.

    Adverse events and health literacy as barriers to childhood immunization in Peru
    (Elsevier, 2026-01-01)
    Objectives To determine whether the level of health literacy and adverse post-vaccination events (AEFI) against COVID-19 experienced by parents are barriers to childhood vaccination in Ayacucho. Methods Cross-sectional predictive level study, conducted in 2022. The analysis was performed using Poisson family generalized lineal models (GLM) and crude (cPR) and adjusted (aPR) prevalence ratios were estimated. Results The sample included 128 parents of children between 5 and 11 years of age. A total of 90.6% of the parents received the vaccine, compared to 64.2% of their children. The incidence of AEFI was higher in adults 62.9% than in children 37.1%, the most frequent being pain at the injection site and fever. Although the level of literacy about COVID-19 and vaccines was adequate, it was poor with respect to AEFI. Multivariable analysis estimated greater hesitancy to childhood vaccination in previously vaccinated parents (RPa = 0.37; 95% CI: 0.14–0.99; p -value = 0.048) and in those with low literacy about AEFI (RPa = 0.62; 95% CI = 0.50–0.76; p -value ' 0.001). Conclusions In addition, the AEFI experienced by adults and the low level of health literacy constitute significant barriers to childhood immunization, which reaffirms the need to strengthen health education and reduce vaccine hesitancy.
