RODRIGUEZ MOSCOSO, Jimena Zoila et al. Factors associated with political participation among university students in Peru. uct [online]. 2024, vol.28, n.125, pp.60-67.  Epub 02-Maio-2025. ISSN 1316-4821.  https://doi.org/10.47460/uct.v28i125.855.

In Peru, the political participation of university students is low, influenced by legal, cultural, and personal factors that limit them to voting only out of obligation. This work analyzed the factors associated with political participation in university students, considering their socio-academic variables. A sample of 310 students was used, where low levels of political participation were found, with significant associations to factors such as apoliticism, mobilization, and activism, but without relation to sociodemographic variables such as sex, occupation, or economic dependence. The lack of participation is attributed to distrust in political actors due to corruption and personal disinterest, with a greater focus on one's academic activities.
