Abstract
El objetivo de esta investigación es explorar las representaciones sociales en
madres de niños de 1- 5 años en torno la anemia ferropénica en una comunidad Shipibo-
Konibo residente en Lima. Para esto, se realizó una investigación cualitativa que responda
a la integración de las experiencias, perspectivas, opiniones y comportamientos de las
madres ante la anemia, contando con un proceso de familiarización con la comunidad y
una guía de preguntas para la recolección de información. Los resultados muestran que
las madres cuentan con información acerca de la anemia; sin embargo, es parcial. Ello
posiblemente debido a que se presenta un desconocimiento acerca de la anemia en la selva
y la falta de eficiencia de la información otorgada por las postas médicas. Finalmente, se
encontró una enfermedad que podría confundirse con la anemia, llamada pelagra, el cual
se asemeja en síntomas; mas no en las causas y tratamiento. Los resultados se discuten
utilizando el constructo de las representaciones sociales y el análisis de contenido acerca
de la visión del proceso de salud-enfermedad en relación a la anemia y su entorno
socioeconómico-ambiental.
The objective of this research is to explore social representations in mothers of children aged 1-5 years about iron deficiency anemia in a Shipibo-Konibo community resident in Lima. For this, a qualitative research was carried out that responds to the integration of the experiences, perspectives, opinions and behaviors of the mothers before the anemia, counting on a process of familiarization with the community and a guide of questions for the collection of information. The results show that mothers have information about anemia; however, it is partial. This is possibly due to the lack of knowledge about anemia in the jungle and the lack of efficiency of the information provided by the medical posts. Finally, a disease was found that could be confused with anemia, called pellagra, which resembles symptoms; but not in the causes and treatment. The results are discussed using the construct of social representations and content analysis about the vision of the health-disease process in relation to anemia and its socioeconomicenvironmental environment
