Power corrections to the Q**2 behavior of the Nachtmann moments of the proton polarized structure function g1p are investigated at large Bjorken-x by developing a phenomenological fit of both the resonance (including the photon point) and deep inelastic data up to Q**2 ~ 50 (GeV/c)**2. The leading twist is treated at NLO in the strong coupling constant and the effects of higher orders of the perturbative series are estimated using soft-gluon resummation techniques. In case of the first moment higher-twist effects are found to be quite small for Q**2 > 1 (GeV/c)**2, and the singlet axial charge is determined to be a0[10 (GeV/c)**2] = 0.16 +/- 0.09. In case of higher order moments, which are sensitive to the large-x region, higher-twist effects are significantly reduced by the introduction of soft gluon contributions, but they are still relevant at Q**2 ~ few (GeV/c)**2 at variance with the case of the unpolarized transverse structure function of the proton. This finding suggests that spin-dependent correlations among partons may have more impact than spin-independent ones. It is also shown that the parton-hadron local duality is violated in the region of polarized electroproduction of the Delta(1232) resonance.
