Empatía, conducta prosocial y problemas de relación con los iguales: cómo se relacionan en la adolescencia
2016
El complejo mundo social de los adolescentes crea constantemente nuevas oportunidades para aplicar y desarrollar procesos relacionados con la empatía y la conducta prosocial, siendo ambos recursos fundamentales para su desarrollo psicológico y emocional positivo. El objetivo del presente trabajo es estudiar la relación entre la empatía, la conducta prosocial y los problemas de relación con los iguales en la adolescencia. Participaron en el estudio 520 adolescentes españoles entre 12 y 15 años (M= 13,55; DT= 1,09), de los cuales 263 (50.6%) eran chicas. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron la Escala Básica de Empatía (BES; Jolliffe y Farrington, 2006) para evaluar la empatía cognitiva y afecti…
Il ruolo delle caratteristiche personali nei comportamenti problematici degli adolescenti
2010
Mutamenti e nuove generazioni
2015
Scopo di questo contributo è proporre una possibile chiave di lettura delle difficoltà che in questo periodo la cultura del nostro paese incontra nell’impostare la relazione con le nuove generazioni, in particolare con la quota di giovani che assumono comportamenti che la maggioranza degli adulti considera in qualche modo devianti. Da un punto di vista generale, ogni generazione comporta e apporta delle novità sulla scena della vita individuale e collettiva, novità che possono assumere tratti di maggiore o minore discostamento da quanto sedimentato negli anni, a seconda delle differenti epoche. In periodi di maggior stabilità socioeconomica, i discostamenti sono minori e più facilmente cont…
Adolescència, context familiar i ajust psicològic
2013
El present estudi pretén analitzar la influència de l'etapa de l'adolescència en el clima familiar i en la comunicació familiar, així com determinar la influència d'aquestes variables familiars en els indicadors d'ajust psicosocial del fill: simptomatologia depressiva, satisfacció amb la vida, soledat i estrés percebut. La mostra està formada per 487 adolescents d'ambdós sexes (246 xics i 241 xiques) d'edats compreses entre els 12 i 18 anys (M = 14.23; DT = 1.69). S'estableixen tres grups, segons la fase de l'adolescència: adolescència primerenca, adolescència mitjana i adolescència tardia. Es troben diferències estadísticament significatives entre els adolescents de l'etapa primerenca i mi…
Training Cognitive Functions Using Mobile Apps in Breast Cancer Patients: Systematic Review
2019
Background: Breast cancer is an invalidating disease and its treatment can bring serious side effects that have a physical and psychological impact. Specifically, cancer treatment generally has a strong impact on cognitive function. In recent years, new technologies and eHealth have had a growing influence on health care and innovative mobile apps can be useful tools to deliver cognitive exercise in the patient’s home. Objective: This systematic review gives an overview of the state-of-the-art mobile apps aimed at training cognitive functions to better understand whether these apps could be useful tools to counteract cognitive impairment in breast cancer patients. Methods: We searched in a …
Setbacks in the process of assimilation of problematic experiences in two cases of emotion-focused therapy for depression
2016
Research on the assimilation model has suggested that psychological change takes place in a sequence of stages punctuated by setbacks, that is, by transient reversals in the developmental course. This study analyzed such setbacks in one good outcome case and one poor outcome case of Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) for depression.Intensive analyses of five transcribed sessions from each case identified 26 setbacks in the good outcome case and 27 in the poor outcome case. The reason for each setback was classified into one of four categories: balance strategy, exceeding the therapeutic zone of proximal development either induced by the therapist (ZPD-T) or induced by the client (ZPD-C), or spon…
Development of a Brief Form of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (B–IRI)
2016
ABSTRACTThe Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) is a standardized self-report measure of disposition to empathic responsiveness for the general adult population (the domain for which it was developed), and for the general adolescent population. The IRI has a number of problems, however, including some uncertainty about its factor structure, low reliabilities, and poor readability of some items for people with limited literacy skills. To address these issues, we constructed an abbreviated form of the index, the Brief IRI (B–IRI). Three studies demonstrated that this 16-item B–IRI has a clear and coherent factor structure, adequate internal consistency, measurement invariance across gender a…
Assessing the Relationship Between Attitudinal and Perceptual Component of Body Image Disturbance Using Virtual Reality
2018
Body image disturbance (BID) affects quality of life even in the absence of clinically diagnosable eating pathology, and numerous studies have shown its crucial role in the emergence and maintenance of eating disorders. This study aimed at exploring attitudinal and perceptual components of BID using a novel virtual reality (VR)-based paradigm. A community sample of women (N = 27) recreated in VR their perceived body in both an allocentric (third-person view) and egocentric (first-person view) perspective. Specifically, women were able to choose between a wide range of three-dimensional bodies spanning body mass index 12.5-42.5 kg/m2. Attitudinal indexes of BID (body dissatisfaction, body un…
Exploring the reciprocal modulation of time and space in dancers and non-dancers.
2014
We explored whether time and space representations modulate each other in subjects that are trained to integrate time and space dimensions, i.e., professional dancers. A group of dancers, and one of non-dancers, underwent two different tasks employing identical stimuli. A first static central line could last one of three possible durations and could have one of three possible lengths. A second growing line appeared from the left or right of the screen and grew up toward the opposite direction at constant velocity. In the Spatial task, subjects encoded the length of the static line and stopped the growing line when it had reached half the length of the static one, regardless of time travel. …
Transdiagnostic dimensions of psychopathology at first episode psychosis: findings from the multinational EU-GEI study.
2019
Background\ud The value of the nosological distinction between non-affective and affective psychosis has frequently been challenged. We aimed to investigate the transdiagnostic dimensional structure and associated characteristics of psychopathology at First Episode Psychosis (FEP). Regardless of diagnostic categories, we expected that positive symptoms occurred more frequently in ethnic minority groups and in more densely populated environments, and that negative symptoms were associated with indices of neurodevelopmental impairment.\ud \ud Method\ud This study included 2182 FEP individuals recruited across six countries, as part of the EUropean network of national schizophrenia networks st…
