Eficacia de la terapia manual articulatoria vertebral en pacientes con migraña
2019
La migraña es uno de los trastornos del sistema nervioso más comunes y se considera la tercera causa de incapacidad en el mundo en menores de 50 años. El tratamiento de la migraña mediante terapia manual articulatoria vertebral (TMAV) puede ser efectivo, sin embargo, existe más controversia que en otros tipos de cefaleas.

2019
The pictorial scale of Physical Self-Concept in Children (P-PSC-C) is a relatively new instrument for investigating physical self-concept in childhood. The current study aims to examine the validity and reliability of the Spanish version of the P-PSC-C, and also to analyse the validity according to the children’s age. A sample of 365 primary school age (M = 9.21, SD = 1.92) students participated; divided in two groups, those aged 9 or younger and those 10-11 years old. Surveys were used to assess perceived physical concept individually. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with diagonally weighted least square estimator specifically designed for ordinal data and a scaled test statistic was co…
Leadership Scale in football coaches: psychometric and descriptive study
2020
El liderazgo ha sido una de las variables de interés en la psicología aplicada al deporte. El Modelo Multidimensional de Liderazgo de Chelladurai y Saleh (1980) sirvió de base para la creación de la Leadership Sport Scale (LSS). La versión para entrenadores (LSS-3) presenta debate respecto a su estructura factorial y sus valores de fiabilidad. El objetivo de este estudio es ofrecer una solución factorial aceptable para la escala LSS-3 en versión española (Ruiz-Barquín y De la Vega, 2015) en una muestra de 326 entrenadores de fútbol, varones, con edades comprendidas entre los 17 y 59 años y evaluar sus cualidades psicométricas. En segundo lugar, se investigan las posibles diferencias en las …

Life events and primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis: A pediatric pilot study
2017
Introduction: The association between primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE) and behavioral disorders was highlighted frequently, suggesting psychiatric origin. On the other hand, there is no difference between the incidence of mental disorders in children with PMNE and controls, although the psychological genesis could provide additional secondary forms, in which the child might react to stressful events with the resumption of involuntary urination at night, with a possible alteration of bowel control due to a high vulnerability to stressors. The purpose of this study is assessing the stressful events of life in a sample of children with PMNE. Materials and methods: 56 subjects …

2016
Mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas con Discapacidad Intelectual es un objetivo prioritario desde la implantación de la Ley de Promoción de la Autonomía Personal y Atención a las personas en situación de dependencia.

El objetivo de este estudio ha consistido en analizar las posibles discrepancias existentes entre l…
