Fostering connections, psychological safety and meaningful relationships
INTRODUCTION: Professional identity formation (PIF) in medicine is a developmental process of integrating personal and professional values, attributes, and practices into one's character. This process may be advanced through experiential learning, socialization, and role models, all of which are found in longitudinal integrated experiences such as learning communities (LCs). LCs, present in more than half of U.S medical schools, often function as…

La medición del autoritarismo en América Latina
La creciente literatura sobre el retroceso de la democracia —o backsliding— se ha enfocado, en buena medida, a las acciones tomadas por liderazgos electos democráticamente que inciden en dicho retroceso. Sin embargo, ha puesto poca atención al apoyo popular con el que cuentan tales liderazgos y sus acciones. Las investigaciones de opinión pública América Latina han dedicado varias preguntas para medir el apoyo a la democracia, y también ofrecen a…
A Brief Report

That is, political competition is drawn between those parties that propose to furthe
Social and Political Trust in Developing Countries
From a modernization perspective, sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America—two of the poorest regions in the world—conform to one another in that citizens of both regions express very low levels of horizontal, generalized interpersonal trust. Indeed, these two regions are among the least trusting societies in the world. Both are low in terms of “bridging” trust, and both also have high degrees of particularized “bonding” trust. However, these regions…

The 2006 Mexican Presidential Election
Early analyses of the 2006 presidential election in Mexico have called our attention to the post-election process, to accusations of fraud, to the extent of partisan polarization, and to the prospects of democratic consolidation, but few have offered an explanation of why President Vicente Fox's National Action Party (PAN) was able to maintain control of the executive office, even by the slim margin of 0.56%. In this article, I argue that the fir…

If democracy requires a compatible value system that helps such a system endure, how democratic are Mexicans today and what implications does this have for democratic consolidation in Mexico? This article examines new survey data to address this old question. Our findings reveal that the prevailing pol…
