There were 832 student participants of both sexes that completed a questionnaire measuring their judgments on 30 rights, 15 institutions, and 10 political ideas. A principal components analysis revealed five factors. Results from multiple regression analysis indicated that institutional attitudes and ideological sympathies may have influenced their views on HR, with the geographic region predictive of the right to social protest. These findings are in line with those from other studies and were examined within the framework of psychosociological theory.porAcesso AbertoDireitos humanosUniversitárioIdeologia políticaAtitude institucionalParticipação socialRegião Norte - BrasilRegião Nordeste - BrasilDireitos humanos, atitude institucional e simpatia ideológica em universitários brasileirosHuman rights, institutional attitudes and ideological sympathies among Brazilian university studentsArtigo de Periódico
