Resumen
Este estudio investiga los conceptos de cognición social y orientación política en jóvenes universitarios de 18 a 25 años, con el objetivo de comprender su influencia en la población juvenil durante el marco pre-electoral de la alcaldía
de Cúcuta en 2023. Se centra estudiantes en 61 hombres y 61 mujeres de la Universidad Simón Bolívar. El enfoque de la investigación es cuantitativo y positivista, utilizando un diseño no experimental, para un análisis observable y
sistemático con el objetivo de puntualizar en términos estadísticos a partir de la obtención de los resultados. Se evaluaron variables como pensamiento social, sensibilidad social, liderazgo prosocial, entre otras, junto con los intereses
políticos de los jóvenes. Los resultados revelaron que la mayoría de los participantes se inclinaba hacia la izquierda en términos de orientación política, mientras que los ítems asociados a la derecha fueron bajos. En cuanto a la cognición social, los jóvenes mostraron altos puntajes en sensibilidad social, liderazgo y actitudes prosociales, entre otras. Por el contrario, mostraron puntuaciones bajas en agresividad, terquedad, apatía y retraimiento. Además, se utilizó el instrumento BIS/BAS para evaluar la toma de decisiones, impulsividad e inhibición conductual, y el CEMCA para obtener datos sociodemográficos y sobre conductas como colaboración y agresión. Estos resultados contrastan con un estudio previo realizado en Bogotá en 2019, lo que permite ampliar la comprensión sobre las inclinaciones políticas y comportamentales de los jóvenes universitarios, proporcionando resultados útiles para futuras campañas políticas y posibles normas públicas que puedan beneficiar a la región fronteriza de Cúcuta.
This study investigates the concepts of social cognition and political orientation in young university students aged 18 to 25, with the aim of understanding their influence on the youth population during the pre-electoral framework of the mayor's office of Cúcuta in 2023. It focuses on 61 men and 61 women students from the Simón Bolívar University. The research approach is quantitative and positivist, using a non-experimental design, for an observable and systematic analysis with the aim of specifying in statistical terms from obtaining the results. Variables such as social thinking, social sensitivity, prosocial leadership, among others, were evaluated, along with the political interests of young people. In addition, the BIS/BAS instrument was used to assess decision-making, impulsivity, and behavioral inhibition, and the CEMCA to obtain sociodemographic data and data on behaviors such as collaboration and aggression. These results contrast with a previous study conducted in Bogotá in 2019, which allows for a broader understanding of the political and behavioral inclinations of young university students, providing useful results for future political campaigns and possible public regulations that may benefit the border region of Cúcuta. The results revealed that the majority of participants leaned to the left in terms of political orientation, while the items associated with the right were low. Regarding social cognition, young people showed high scores in social sensitivity, leadership, and prosocial attitudes, among others. In contrast, they showed low scores in aggressiveness, stubbornness, apathy, and withdrawal.
