Ecological rationality of moral intuitions: Exploring its description with GARP and its functionality with a jealousy evoking economic game

2020 , BARBATO EPPLE, MARÍA TERESA

This introductory theoretical framework describes the existing literature on the approaches that moral psychology has followed in recent years. Specifically, the advantages and disadvantages of constructing this discipline will be exposed using theories and methodologies from other areas such as: neuroscience, evolutionary psychology and microeconomics, which have visions that allow us to understand how individuals respond to their environment and allow us to build models around how and why moral intuitions arise. We will focus on the evolutionary vision that allows us to understand morality as rules that solve certain ancestral problems that are believed to be relevant to our ancestors. In this context, intuitions have an important role in cooperation and consequently in the reproductive success of humans, for this reason we will change the paradigm that exists in the literature on reason vs. intuition. In which intuitions are thought of irrational behavior due to their close link to emotions. We demonstrate that intuitions are rational and explore their functionality from an evolutionary perspective evoking the moral emotion of jealousy

Usage of Child Care and Education Centers

2016 , Francisca Dussaillant

The Chilean Early Childhood Longitudinal Survey was used to model the choices made by households with respect to day care or preschool (DC/PS) attendance. We also use georeferenced data on the location of centers that could take care of children. We present a detailed analysis of the correlates of DC/PS attendance choices, giving special attention to the distance between the household and the center as predictors. For these purposes, the joint decision of child attendance to DC/PS and mother’s employment is modeled. The measurement of this association is relatively new to the literature because it requires georeferenced data, which only recently have begun to be collected systematically by public policy agencies. The association we find between distance and attendance to DC/PS centers is significant but smaller than the association to the age of the child. Separate analyses for 0- to 14-month-olds and 25- to 54-month-olds show some heterogeneous effects on the joint decision of attendance and education.

Gender inequality across the world has been associated with a higher risk to mental health problems and lower academic achievement in women compared to men. We also know that the brain is shaped by nurturing and adverse socio-environmental experiences. Therefore, unequal exposure to harsher conditions for women compared to men in gender-unequal countries might be reflected in differences in their brain structure, and this could be the neural mechanism partly explaining women’s worse outcomes in gender-unequal countries. We examined this through a random-effects meta-analysis on cortical thickness and surface area differences between adult healthy men and women, including a meta-regression in which country-level gender inequality acted as an explanatory variable for the observed differences. A total of 139 samples from 29 different countries, totaling 7,876 MRI scans, were included. Thickness of the right hemisphere, and particularly the right caudal anterior cingulate, right medial orbitofrontal, and left lateral occipital cortex, presented no differences or even thicker regional cortices in women compared to men in gender-equal countries, reversing to thinner cortices in countries with greater gender inequality. These results point to the potentially hazardous effect of gender inequality on women’s brains and provide initial evidence for neuroscience-informed policies for gender equality.

Mauricio Casanova Brito ¿Por qué fracasó nuestro antiguo modelo de desarrollo? Una mirada historiográfica al Chile de mediados del siglo XX Concepción, Editorial Universidad de Concepción, 2021, 120 pp. ISBN: 978-956-227-498-2.

2023 , COUYOUMDJIAN NETTLE, JUAN PABLO

El trabajo de Mauricio Casanova que aquí reseñamos representa una investigación muy interesante que merece ser leída y discutida ampliamente, aunque al parecer ha tenido poca difusión. Este es un estudio breve, pero sólido, que invita a la reflexión. El volumen trata sobre el “modelo CORFO”, sus orígenes, y su impacto en las condiciones de vida de los trabajadores en Chile hasta mediados del siglo XX. En este sentido, su aporte es doble. Por una parte, se presenta una interpretación muy interesante sobre la economía política del modelo de desarrollo implementado en el país desde la década de 1930. Por otra, se propone un nuevo enfoque metodológico para capturar la evolución del bienestar de los trabajadores en el país. Los resultados de este último análisis, que muestran un desempeño mediocre para el período en estudio, dan lugar, una vez más, a una explicación muy sugerente relacionada a lo que el autor denomina las “consecuencias imprevistas” del referido modelo.
