Relación entre el control inhibitorio, orientación religiosa y actitud prejuiciosa en jóvenes universitarios de Barranquilla

The development of society involves socialization processes in which psychological, cultural, and biological elements are involved. The establishment of values thanks to religion and the prejudices that stem from it, also involve cognitive and neuropsychological development in people. To deepen the knowledge of these variables, the main objective of this research is to analyze inhibitory control, orientation, and religious prejudices in young people from Barranquilla. Method: In this study with a quantitative correlational-cross-sectional approach, we worked with an incidental sample of 51 people made up of 28 women and 22 men aged between 18 and 25 who were university residents of the city of Barranquilla. The instruments used were: The Prejudiced Attitude Test (TAP), the Religious Orientation Test and the Simon task to measure inhibitory control. Results: A low/moderate relationship was found between the response time categories and the conative TAP, which are part of the inhibitory control and prejudiced attitude. However, no statistically significant correlation was found between prejudice, religious orientation, and inhibitory control. Conclusions: Given the correlation between the response time and the Conative TAP, it is possible to affirm that there is evidence of a tendency towards social proximity, a high capacity to control thoughts and emotions, and, in addition, a low capacity to inhibit interference. Which would indicate a tendency to relate to the outgroup, regulate the prejudiced attitude and have little impulse control. However, it was concluded that there is a relationship between the variables, although it is slight, it is valid for the percentages of correlations.
