نویسنده

چکیده

r e s u m e n Este artículo es una revisión de los avances teóricos y los hallazgos empíricos relacionados con las representaciones sociales de acuerdo con el enfoque estructural, una corriente de investigación que tiene como objetivo estudiar la influencia de factores sociales en los procesos de pensamiento a través de la identificación y caracterización de relaciones estructurales. La presentación del enfoque comienza con las definiciones básicas de las representaciones sociales de acuerdo con el enfoque estructural, pasando a la naturaleza de los elementos de representación, las relaciones entre las representaciones y prácticas, las dimensiones de esquemas cognitivos, la teoría del núcleo central, las transformaciones de representación y efectos de los contextos de interacción. Además de comentar algunos temas controversiales en la revisión, en la sección final se evalúa brevemente la situación actual y perspectivas de la investigación estructural de las representaciones sociales, principalmente relacionadas con el problema de definir el consenso, la dificultad de caracterizar una construcción colectiva a partir de datos individuales y la importancia secundaria del contenido en las leyes estructurales.
