Resumen

El artículo pone a prueba la hipótesis de que los países tienden a presentar un comportamiento internacional más favorable hacia los Estados Unidos cuando sus jefes de Estado han tenido contactos previos con instituciones educacionales estadounidenses.  Se realizó un estudio prosopográfico de los jefes de Estado de los países que integran el Grupo Regional de América Latina y el Caribe (GRULAC-ONU), observando específicamente cuáles de ellos han tenido contacto con instituciones educacionales estadounidenses. Para medir el posicionamiento en relación con EE.UU., se adoptó como variable sustitutiva el patrón de voto de estos estados en la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas, comparado con el patrón de voto estadounidense. Puesto que se tratan de dos variables dicotómicas, se calculó el coeficiente de asociación de Yule para verificar la fuerza de la relación entre ellas. Todas las variaciones de la prueba arrojaron una asociación positiva baja, que fluctuó entre 0,108 y 0,202. Los resultados aportaron pruebas que corroboran la hipótesis de que el contacto previo de los jefes de Estado con las instituciones educacionales estadounidenses produce una actitud más positiva de estas naciones hacia los Estados Unidos.
