Resilience and Socioeconomic Status as Predictors of Life Satisfaction and Psychological Well-Being in Colombian Older Adults
2019
Well-being is a complex construct related to sociodemographic and cultural aspects that vary across cultures. Latin America is a region with high social inequalities among population groups, although this varies significantly depending on the country. This article proposes a model that seeks to establish the relationship between psychosocial variables, psychological well-being, and life satisfaction in a sample of Colombian older adults. The model explores associations between resilience, socioeconomic status, life satisfaction, and psychological well-being. A study with a sample of 617 Colombian older adults was conducted. A structural equation modeling technique was performed. The result…

Impact of Visual Biofeedback of Trunk Sway Smoothness on Motor Learning during Unipedal Stance.
2020
The assessment of trunk sway smoothness using an accelerometer sensor embedded in a smartphone could be a biomarker for tracking motor learning. This study aimed to determine the reliability of trunk sway smoothness and the effect of visual biofeedback of sway smoothness on motor learning in healthy people during unipedal stance training using an iPhone 5 measurement system. In the first experiment, trunk sway smoothness in the reliability group (n = 11) was assessed on two days, separated by one week. In the second, the biofeedback group (n = 12) and no-biofeedback group (n = 12) were compared during 7 days of unipedal stance test training and one more day of retention (without biofeedback…
MetAphAs Test. Metalanguage in Aphasia Assessment.
2018
Test MetAphAs: La evaluación del metalenguaje en la afasia (Rosell-Clari & Hernández-Sacristán, 2018) es una versión adaptada y abreviada de Rosell Clari & Hernández Sacristán, 2014). Esta prueba fue desarrollada inicialmente para evaluar las habilidades metalingüísticas naturales en personas con afasia (Hernández-Sacristán, Rosell-Clari, Serra-Alegre y Quiles-Climent, 2012). Las habilidades metalingüísticas naturales se refieren al uso del lenguaje que revela reflexividad (Hockett, 1960); es decir, la distancia perceptiva del hablante con respecto a su propio comportamiento verbal (Werner & Kaplan, 1978). Esta autoconciencia del lenguaje nos permite monitorear nuestros propios comportamien…
Measure of Psychological Variables in Dancers Sport
2012
El objetivo fundamental del estudio consiste en identificar y evaluar las principales variables psicológicas que están interviniendo en los distintos niveles de rendimiento en la práctica de baile deportivo. Para esto, entre otros, se utilizó el Cuestionario de Características Psicológicas aplicadas al Rendimiento Deportivo (Gimeno, Buceta & Pérez-Llantada, 2001). Se realizó un análisis de varianza, y pese a no alcanzar las diferencias valores estadísticamente significativos en los factores Control del Estrés e Influencia de la Evaluación del Rendimiento, sí se puede señalar la existencia de diferencias relevantes en función de la interacción de dos condiciones: el nivel competitivo y el éx…
Análisis del papel de la resiliencia y de las necesidades psicológicas básicas como antecedentes de las experiencias de diversión y aburrimiento en e…
2019
La psicología positiva defiende que las variables que promueven la calidad de la implicación, como la resiliencia y la satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas básicas, contribuyen a predecir el desarrollo óptimo. Desde el marco de la teoría de la autodeterminación, en el presente estudio se analiza la relación entre la resiliencia, la satisfacción y la frustración de las necesidades psicológicas básicas y las experiencias de diversión y aburrimiento en la práctica deportiva. En el estudio participan 641 jugadoras de fútbol y baloncesto (Medad=14.74±3.91). Los resultados del análisis de ecuaciones estructurales muestran que la resiliencia se asocia positivamente con la satisfacción y ne…
Somatic complaints, emotional awareness and maladjustment in schoolchildren
2015
Introduction: Somatic complaints are common in childhood. Research has shown their relationship with emotional awareness and maladjustment. The study had three objectives: 1) to analyse the prevalence of somatic complaints; 2) to explore the relationships between the variables evaluated: somatic complaints, differentiating emotions, verbal sharing of emotions, not hiding emotions, body awareness, attending to others’ emotions, analysis of emotions, and personal, social, family, and school maladjustments; and 3) to identify predictors of somatic complaints. Patients and methods: The study included a total of 1134 randomly selected schoolchildren of both sexes between 10 and 12 years old (M =…
Exploring the impact of augmented reality in children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder: a systematic review
2020
Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent difficulties in communication and social interaction along with a restriction in interests and the presence of repetitive behaviors. The development and use of augmented reality technology for autism has increased in recent years. However, little is known about the impact of these virtual reality technologies on clinical health symptoms. The aim of this systematic review was to investigate the impact of augmented reality through social, cognitive, and behavioral domains in children and adolescents with autism. This study is the first contribution that has carried out an evidence-based systematic r…
Modulation of higher-order olfaction components on executive functions in humans
2015
The prefrontal (PFC) and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) appear to be associated with both executive functions and olfaction. However, there is little data relating olfactory processing and executive functions in humans. The present study aimed at exploring the role of olfaction on executive functioning, making a distinction between primary and more cognitive aspects of olfaction. Three executive tasks of similar difficulty were used. One was used to assess hot executive functions (Iowa Gambling Task-IGT), and two as a measure of cold executive functioning (Stroop Colour and Word Test-SCWT and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test-WCST). Sixty two healthy participants were included: 31 with normosmia and …
