Differences in psychological traits between lingual and labial orthodontic patients: perfectionism, body image, and the impact of dental esthetics.
2014
OBJECTIVE: To examine some of the patients' psychological traits in relation to their levels of perfectionism and their body image, and to discover whether these differ between lingual and labial orthodontic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was designed with a consecutive sample of 80 patients attending a private orthodontic office. Three questionnaires were used to assess the patients' body image and level of perfectionism. The mean age was 33 years. The men numbered 32 and the women 48. The validated Spanish version of the Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetic Questionnaire (PIDAQ) was used to assess the psychosocial impact of their dental esthetics. The Multidim…
La evaluación del perfeccionismo: utilidad de la Escala Multidimensional de Perfeccionismo en población española
2009
La Escala Multidimensional de Perfeccionismo (MPS) de Frost et al. (1990) es uno de los instrumentos con más tradición empírica y mayor influencia en el estudio del perfeccionismo. El objetivo de este trabajo es traducir y validar la MPS para su uso en población española. Para ello, 434 participantes (77% mujeres; edad media: 23,38 años), completaron la versión española de la MPS junto con cuestionarios de obsesividad, trastornos alimentarios, y preocupaciones ansiosas, para evaluar la validez convergente de la MPS. El análisis de componentes principales (varianza explicada: 56%), reveló una estructura de 4 factores en lugar de los 6 originales: Miedo a los errores, Influencias paternas, Ex…
Las virtudes cívicas y la cuestión de la estabilidad. ¿Hacia un perfeccionismo liberal?
2011
En este trabajo intentaré explicar por qué las virtudes cívicas constituyen una condición necesaria para la estabilidad de las instituciones en un Estado liberal. Sin embargo, este punto pone en entredicho algunas de las coordenadas de la topografía moral de Rawls. Por esta razón, presentaré una interpretación de las últimas obras de Rawls que pueda tener en cuenta el papel de las virtudes cívicas en el fortalecimiento de las instituciones en una comunidad “políticoliberal”. Finalmente, expondré por qué una cierta versión del perfeccionismo liberal es coherente con la doctrina rawlsiana y puede a la vez tomar en serio el papel de las virtudes cívicas sin constituir una forma de paternalismo…

Material and methods A descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in a sample of 301 students of the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry of the University of Valencia, aged between 18 and 30 years. Each participant was asked to complete a survey comprising three questionnaires: PIDAQ (Psychos…
Esercizi di confutazione su eutanasia e suicidio assistito
2013
In this article, I will offer a definition of active euthanasia, of passive euthanasia and of physician-assisted suicide. Secondly, because I believe in the value of individual autonomy, I will confutate some arguments adduced against the legalization of voluntary euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide. In particular, five arguments. The slippery slope argument, the perfectionist moral argument, the theological argument, the patients’ vulnerability argument, the life’s sacred value argument.
Contro il paternalismo giuridico
2012
Il problema generale di cui paternalisti e antipaternalisti dibattono è se e fino a che punto una persona possa legittimamente disporre del proprio corpo o della propria vita, fino a che punto possa cagionare a se stessa (ciò che molti considerano) un “danno”. In particolare, paternalisti e antipaternalisti discutono di questioni morali e giuridiche molto controverse, ad esempio la liceità/illiceità della prostituzione, dei rituali religiosi di flagellazione della carne, della vendita e del consumo di sostanze stupefacenti, dell’eutanasia, del suicidio assistito, degli sport molto pericolosi, fino a casi estremi come la possibilità di commercializzare parti del proprio corpo. In estrema sin…
El declive de la ética de las capacidades
2013
Capability approach is one of the most important contributions of contemporary political philosophy to the subject of international distributive justice and more generally to the implementation of development policies. In this paper I aim to shed light on some pitfalls of the last production of Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum. Sen’s last book “The idea of justice” introduced his theory as a “comparative” approach to issues of justice, while rejecting “transcendental” approaches such as Rawls’one. I will show how this dichotomy between comparative and transcendental approach is mistaken, since it rests on wrong assumptions on what we can require from a theory of justice. As far as Nussbaum i…
Resilience and Parental Burnout Among Finnish Parents During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Variable and Person-Oriented Approaches.
2021
During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis, different personality characteristics may have influenced parental well-being in different ways. In the present study, we combined variable and person-oriented approaches and examined relationships between resilience, parental burnout, and perfectionism during the lockdown. We first used structural equation modeling to assess the paths between variables. We then used latent profile analysis to examine different profiles of parents based on resilience, perfectionism, and symptoms of parental burnout. Finally, we examined how these profiles differ in terms of relevant background variables. The results showed that resilience predicted par…
The impact of two-dimensional perfectionism on burnout and eating disorders in young Finnish athletes : comparison between males and females
2014
Matilda Sorkkila, 2014. The impact of two-dimensional perfectionism on burnout and eating disorders in young Finnish athletes: comparison between males and females. Master’s Thesis in Sport and Exercise Psychology. Department of Sport Sciences. University of Jyväskylä. 40 p. Even though it has been argued that perfectionistic strivings might be adaptive and perfectionistic concerns might be maladaptive in sports, only few studies have viewed these dimensions in relation to athletes’ mental health. Two mental health problems that have been found in elevated amounts in young elite athletes are burnout and eating disorders. It has been proposed that perfectionism might impact the development o…
