    El artículo desarrolla un desafío a la validez de constructo de los ex-perimentos de soborno consistente en que las motivaciones sociales no supervienenmeramente de las características intrínsecas de los individuos, sino que dependen defactores contextuales, particularmente normativos, que otorgan contenido a dichasmotivaciones. El déficit teórico que presenta el constructo de soborno se evidenciaen una incompleta teorización de dicha dimensión normativa en la operacionalizacióndel constructo de soborno, lo que se traduce en la falta de inclusión de operacio-nes que representen dicha dimensión a nivel concreto de la parametrización y labúsqueda de correlatos empíricos

    The article develops a challenge to the construct validity of briberyexperiments, consisting in the fact that social motivations do not merely superveneon the intrinsic characteristics of individuals, but rather depend on contextualfactors, in this case normative, that give content to those motivations. The theoreticaldeficit presented by the bribery construct is evidenced in an incomplete theorizationof such a normative dimension in the operationalization of the bribery construct,which translates into a lack of operations representing the normative dimension atthe concrete level of the parameterization and empirical correlates
