Exploring Perceptions of Insecurity in Latin America and Their Association with the Cessation of Work and Leisure Activities This article examines how perceptions of insecurity influence individual decisions regarding work and leisure, using data from Latinobarómetro with more than 20,000 observations. A structural equation model is used to analyze the main determinants of these perceptions in Latin America and their association with the abandonment of activities outside the home. The results show that various social, institutional, and contextual factors influence perceptions of insecurity, which in turn directly affect participation in the activities studied. Additionally, an Importance-Performance Analysis (IPMA) identifies key areas for improvement.
