This emerges from a study carried out by the Public Opinion Center of the University of Belgrano, which reflects the low expectation that the delicate scenario will be reversed, with barely 4 out of 10 people anticipating a better economic climate after the elections.
In the conclusions, The house of studies indicates that “opinions are divided as to whether this year’s elections will improve economic expectations, with moderate optimism prevailing.”
He specified that “in this context, 41% of those consulted believe that this year’s elections will open up better prospects for the economy and 32% believe that they will only get worse, while 22% believe that nothing will change.” The survey showed that 60% believe that the current generation of young people will face even worse economic expectations in the country in the future.
The report also revealed that 70% of those surveyed consider that the economic crisis has an impact on the fabric of family relationships.
Likewise, almost 80% recognize the emotional impact of the current context, beyond the obvious material consequences and associate it with feelings of “frustration” and “irritability”.
The survey also inquired about the permeability to economic news and, particularly, attention to the evolution of the dollar.
In this regard, half of the citizens consulted admitted to following the price of the US currency carefully.
What is the influence of the media
Regarding the influence of the media and economic news to make personal decisions, the survey showed that 54% of those surveyed admitted that they take them as a reference, while 39% assured that their own experience is what rules.
While 34% combined both variables, that is, personal experience and news consumption.
“The personal daily experience and experience with the increase in prices has as much or more weight in public perceptions than the news that is communicated daily through the media,” they analyzed from the university.
