The study investigates the perceived effectiveness of transitional justice measures carried out in Argentina with respect to the political violence of the last military dictatorship (19761983). A correlational descriptive groups differences study was carried out based on a convenience sample composed by 518 participants (40.3% men and 59.7% women, mean age = 35.58 years, ; SD = 13.63). The results show a poor knowledge about the CONADEP, but also a positive valuation and perceived effectiveness of its work.
