Childhood maltreatment, personality vulnerability profiles, and borderline personality disorder symptoms in adolescents.
2021
AbstractAdverse childhood experiences are significant risk factors in the development of adolescent borderline personality disorder symptoms (BPDs). Theorists have posited that two personality vulnerabilities factors, self-criticism and dependency, may inform our understanding of this relationship. However, no research has examined the associations between early negative experiences, personality vulnerabilities, and adolescent BPDs. The current study aimed to identify profiles of dependency and self-criticism to examine the associations of these profiles with cumulative forms of childhood maltreatment (CM) and BPDs as well as to explore the mediating and moderating role of vulnerable person…
Developmental trajectories of experiential avoidance and depressive symptoms and association to health behaviors among adolescents during brief guide…

Abstract While many children and adolescents experience psychological problems with up to 20 percent estimated to develop a mental health problem, only few receive treatment. Online interventions can help respond to the need of support among young people without requiring considerable resources. However, relatively few studies have examined the efficacy of online interventions for youth and more research is needed to understand individual differences in benefiting from these interventions. The current study sought to examine different developmental trajectories of experiential avoidance and depressive symptoms and their association to health behaviors measured at baseline during a brief gui…

Child maltreatment is linked to difficulties in identifying with social groups as a young adult.
2019
Subjective feelings of disconnectedness from social groups have been found to be detrimental to mental health. However, little is known about the factors determining people's ability to attach to groups. We contend that child maltreatment will impair people's ability to group identification across the lifespan, and present a cross-sectional study involving 396 young adults from Spain, aimed at testing this hypothesis. Results reveal that, as expected, a greater degree of maltreatment received before the age of 14 is linked to a lower number of social groups one identifies with, even after controlling for current levels of depression, anxiety, and borderline personality. Statement of contrib…
El papel de los problemas emocionales en la hipersexualidad
2020
Introducción: La hipersexualidad es un problema frecuente en la práctica clínica, especialmente por el malestar emocional que generan algunas de sus manifestaciones como la adicción al sexo. Sin embargo, la relación entre el malestar y la hipersexualidad no está clara y muchos autores resaltan que, además de una consecuencia, el malestar emocional podría ser causante de la búsqueda del sexo como una estrategia de regulación emocional. El objetivo del presente estudio es comprobar si existe relación entre el estado anímico y la conducta hipersexual tanto en hombres como en mujeres. Método: 400 participantes (69% hombres) entre los 18 y 40 años (M=26,65; DT=6,30) completaron una encuesta onli…
