LOPEZ-LOPEZ, Wilson; SILVA, Luis Manuel; CASTRO ABRIL, Pablo y CAICEDO MORENO, Angélica. Implicit Attitudes of University Students in Regard to Forgiveness in the Colombian Armed Conflict. Pensam. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.2, pp.49-62. ISSN 1657-8961. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javerianacali.PPSI14-2.aieu.
Objective. In this study, the implicit attitudes of University students were analyzed with regard to forgivingness towards ex members of the guerilla and paramilitary groups in the Colombian armed conflict. Method. Thirty University students in Bogotá were measured with the IAT (Implicit Association Test) by using the response latency to measure the strength of the association between different concepts and an explicit questionnaire related to forgiveness. The analysis was made from functional contextualism and Relational Frame Theory. Results. There was found that participants presented a stronger association between the concepts of forgiveness and Guerilla, suggesting they would be more willing to forgive an ex member of this armed group. Conclusion. This investigation opens the possibility of further exploration on the subject of forgiveness in a post conflict scenario, including variables such as political position, age, and war experiences from a contemporary perspective.
