CAMPOS-BUSTOS, Juana Lorena. Social representations of Haitian migration in Chilean schools. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.1, pp.123-144.  Epub Feb 25, 2022. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.20.1.4712.

This research begins with the following question: How do Chilean school children in a public primary school in Santiago represent their Haitian migrant classmates? A quantitative approach was with a survey selected as the main data collection tool. The variables included gender and year level. The results show that female students and those aged between 6 and 9 tend to socially represent Haitian students in an evaluative manner while male students and those aged between 10 and 15 tend to generate prejudiced and dismissive representations of migrants.

Keywords : Social representations; migrant; intercultural education; childhood.
