Resumen

Introducción: este artículo analiza la asociación de los diferentes tipos de legado con el legado negativo generado por los Juegos Panamericanos Junior Cali 2021.

Objetivo: comprender las relaciones entre las distintas dimensiones del legado (socioeconómico, imagen internacional de la ciudad anfitriona, deportivo y ambiental) y el posible legado negativo que los eventos internacionales multideportivos pueden generar en las ciudades anfitrionas.

Metodología: se realizó una encuesta a 666 participantes de los Juegos Panamericanos Junior Cali 2021, los datos fueron analizados mediante un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para identificar las relaciones entre los diferentes tipos de legado.

Resultados: los resultados muestran que los legados socioeconómico y deportivo presentan asociaciones positivas y estadísticamente significativas con el legado negativo, lo que indica que, pese a considerarse beneficiosos, pueden generar efectos adversos. Por el contrario, el legado relacionado con la imagen internacional de la ciudad se asocia negativamente con el legado negativo, sugiriendo que una mejor percepción externa puede mitigar impactos locales desfavorables. Además, no se encontró una relación estadísticamente significativa entre el legado ambiental y el legado negativo.

Discusión: este estudio aporta a la investigación sobre legado al mostrar que los resultados positivos generados por los eventos deportivos pueden coexistir con, o incluso intensificar, las percepciones negativas en las ciudades anfitrionas.

Conclusión: se concluye que los legados socioeconómico y deportivo no siempre son percibidos de manera positiva; el legado asociado con la imagen internacional de la ciudad cumple un papel mitigador, y el legado ambiental no genera un impacto perceptible sobre el legado negativo.
