DAKDUK, Silvana; GONZALEZ, Mónica e MALAVE, José. Perceptions of the poor and the poverty: A review. rev.latinoam.psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.42, n.3, pp.413-425. ISSN 0120-0534.
This paper reports a review of studies of perceptions about poverty and the poor. The method consist in a quantitative review based on a systematic search in international databases (Ebsco, Proquest, Redalyc, Dialnet, Wiley Interscience, Psycnet, Psycinfo, Psycarticles and Sage) of randomized studies, published from January 1970 to April 2009, that attempt to explore how different social groups perceived poverty and poor from the analysis of variables such as attributions, beliefs, perceptions, and explanations. Results show that most researches have been carried out in developed countries, or zones where poor people do not represent the largest proportion of the population, and with samples of students and communities that have not effect on public policies or private initiatives to improve the quality of lives of these people.
