Contexto

In only two years Chile has been facing a strong period of political campaigns in which the citizens have had to approach the urns in 6 different occasions between November 2020 and December 2022. Many of the activities, for example, the political campaigns, have become digital and social media has become more relevant since its where disinformation and fake news campaigns are mostly taking place. Women candidates have been the ones who are mainly using social media to contact their constituents given that they are free and they allow a direct way of interaction with the voters.

Objetivo

  • Five question for characterising the sample (position, age, gender identity (belonging to the LGBTQ+ community or not), years of service, belonging to any indigenous peoples community.
  • Four quantitative questions on their experience with disinformation
