We study the success to describe hyperon semileptonic decays of four modelsthat incorporate second-order SU(3) symmetry breaking corrections. The criteriato assess their success is by determining V_{us} in each of the three relevanthyperon semileptonic decays and comparing the values obtained with one anotherand also with the one that comes from K_{l3} decays. A strong dependence on theparticular symmetry breaking model is observed. Values of V_{us} which do notagree with the one of K_{l3} are generally obtained. However, in the context ofchiral perturbation theory, only the model whose corrections are O(m_s) andO(m_s^{3/2}) is successful. Using its predictions for the f_1 form factors onecan quote a value of V_{us} from this model, namely, V_{us}=0.2176\pm 0.0026,which is in excellent agreement with the K_{l3} one.Comment: Final versio
