Contro il paternalismo giuridico
2011
Sommario In questo articolo, si argomenterà che il paternalismo giuridico non è una concezione etico-politica condivisibile. In base a tale concezione, infatti, lo Stato può usare la forza, contro la volontà di un individuo adulto, anche qualora le sue scelte siano razionali e libere da coazione altrui, al fine di tutelare (ciò che si pretende sia) il suo bene. In particolare, si argomenterà che quello dell’autonomia individuale sia un argomento, in favore dell’antipaternalismo, più forte e condivisibile dei due principali argomenti in favore del paternalismo, quello utilitarista/organicista e quello perfezionista. Questi ultimi due argomenti, correttamente interpretati, sono, infatti, inco…
Sensación de inacabado y experiencias “not just right” como motivadoras de los síntomas obsesivo-compulsivos
2016
The sense of incompleteness, “not just right” experiences and “just right” symptoms are considered motivational variables of obsessive-compulsive symptoms. This study examines the relationships between these “new” constructs and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) related variables (symptoms, dysfunctional beliefs, perfectionism, and intolerance to uncertainty), in comparison to its association with emotional non-OCD psychopathology. The results from 267 individuals who completed self-reports indicate that individuals at risk of developing OCD score higher on the main constructs of the study than those not at risk. Only the variables incompleteness, not just right experiences and just right…

Este estudio analiza las propiedades psicometricas del MIPS en una muestra espanola de jovenes futbolistas. Participaron 429 futbolistas espanoles con edades comprendidas entre 9 y 13 anos. Los analisis factoriales confirmatorios mostraron que un modelo bidimensional obtenia adecuados indices de ajuste y los coeficientes alfa de Cronbach mostraron niveles de fiabilidad interna aceptables.

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…
Teasing as a risk factor for abnormal eating behaviours: A prospective study in an adolescent population.
2017
Abstract Introduction There are discrepancies in the literature about the role of teasing in the onset of eating pathology. This article aims to establish the influence of teasing in abnormal eating behaviours and attitudes in the adolescent population. Material and methods This is a two-year prospective study conducted in 7167 adolescents between 13 and 15 years of age. In a first assessment, teasing about weight and teasing about abilities were measured by means of the POTS.questionnaire. Its association with eating psychopathology after two years was analysed controlling nutritional status (BMI), body dissatisfaction, drive to thinness, perfectionism (EDI), emotional symptoms and hyperac…
Sport burnout inventory–Dual career form for student-athletes: Assessing validity and reliability in a Finnish sample of adolescent athletes
2020
Background: The pressure of pursuing an athletic career simultaneously with education may set adolescent student-athletes at risk for sport and school burnout. Although the 2 life domains of student-athletes are strongly intertwined, so far, there has not been an instrument for investigating sport burnout parallel to school burnout. The aim of the present study was to introduce a sport burnout measure for adolescents in a dual career context and investigate its validity and reliability by using confirmatory factor analysis. Methods: The participants were 391 student-athletes (51% females) who filled in a questionnaire of sport burnout and background variables in the beginning of upper secon…
Genetic and environmental influences on psychological traits and eating attitudes in a sample of Spanish schoolchildren.
2014
Introduction: The heritability of eating disorders has been estimated to range from 22% to over 62%.The aim of this study is to determine the relative influence of genetics and environment that contribute to the drive for thinness, body dissatisfaction, perfectionism, and ineffectiveness, by evaluating sex differences in a sample of adolescent twins from Valencia, Spain. Material and methods: Five hundred eighty-four pairs of adolescent twins between 13 and 18 years of age completed the study. To determine zygosity, teachers responded to a questionnaire on physical similarity. Psychological traits of eating disorders were assessed with four sub-scales of the Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI);…
Perfectionism and achievement goals in young Finnish ice-hockey players aspiring to make the Under-16 national team
2008
Research on perfectionism suggests that is it useful to differentiate between perfectionistic strivings and perfectionistic concerns. Regarding the 2 x 2 achievement goal framework, the usefulness of this differentiation was recently demonstrated in a study with university student athletes (Stoeber, Stoll, Pescheck, & Otto, 2008, Study 2), in which it was found that perfectionistic strivings were associated with mastery-approach and performance-approach goals and perfectionistic concerns with mastery-avoidance, performance-approach, and performance-avoidance goals. Because the study was largely exploratory and only used non-elite athletes, the aim of the present research was to replicate an…
Genetic and environmental contributions to perfectionism and its common factors
2015
Abstract The aims of this study: (1) To evaluate the relative contributions of genetics and environment to perfectionism and it's two constructs: self-oriented, and socially prescribed perfectionism. (2) To clarify genetic and environmental common origins of both personal and social components. Methods: Participants were 258 pairs of adolescent Spanish twins. Socially prescribed and self-oriented perfectionism were assessed using the perfectionism subscale of the Eating Disorder Inventory. Statistics: univariate and bivariate twin models, according to sex. Results; Heritability of self-oriented perfectionism was 23% in boys and 30% in girls, and of socially prescribed perfectionism 39% in b…
Can Brief, Daily Training Using a Mobile App Help Change Maladaptive Beliefs? Crossover Randomized Controlled Trial
2019
BackgroundObsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a disabling condition with a wide variety of clinical presentations including contamination fears, fear of harm, and relationship-related obsessions. Cognitive behavioral models of OCD suggest that OC symptoms result from catastrophic misinterpretations of commonly occurring intrusive experiences and associated dysfunctional strategies used to manage them. OCD-related maladaptive beliefs including inflated responsibility, importance and control of thoughts, perfectionism, and intolerance for uncertainty increase the likelihood of such misinterpretations. ObjectiveConsidering accumulating evidence suggesting that mobile health (mHealth) apps b…
