Introduction: The importance of the perception of one’s potential, of who one is, and of what can become, is decisive in the development of personality, especially in adolescents. Objective: Analysis the psychometric properties of the García & Musitu’s AF5 Self-Concept Scale in a sample of high school students in the city of Lima-Peru. Material and methods: The study participants were 646 school children (312 boys and 334 girls), ranging in age from 11 to 17 years old (M = 13.95, SD = 1.62). The Garcia and Musitu self-concept scale (AF5) was administered and exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was performed. Data analysis was done with the programs Factor Analysis (version 10.9.02) and R (version 4.0.2).

Introduction and objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between acute stress and food intake using a sample of people without emotional disturbances. In order to manipulate the stress and evaluate the aforementioned relationship, an experimental scenario was designed, through a version modified of the Social Stress induction protocol, Trial Stress Social Test (TSST). Material and methods: The final sample included 82 participants between the ages of 18 and 30 years, who were randomly assigned into two groups. Participants attended two sessions. In the beginning, they answered questionnaires that gathered information about: stress to guarantee the equivalence of the groups before any exposure to the experiment. In the second session, for each activity associated with the TSST protocol, the perceived stress was evaluated. Also, the food intake was evaluated. For the analysis, six covariates were statistically controlled: age, sex, BMI, emotional eating, food restriction and food craving. In addition, food intake was evaluated with the category: quantity of unhealthy food. Results: Through logistic regression analysis, it was found that, under acute stress conditions, a healthy person might have a higher intake of unhealthy food. Conclusions: Theoretical and practical implications of the results contribute in developing future research in the field of study.

Background and Depression and anxiety, the most common mental disorders, have had a recent increase in prevalence in university students. The use of emotion regulation strategies and regulation success, which is predictive of mental health, have been primarily assessed through self-report, especially in Latin American samples. The present study sought to test a computerized emotion regulation experimental task in Mexican students samples. Method: Two Mexican samples of undergraduate and graduate students (Sample I: n = 49 and Sample II: n = 40) completed an experimental task (in-house Mexican Spanish translation). Participants were asked to decrease negative affect (reappraise) or react naturally in response to negative or neutral images and to self-report affect immediately after. Results: We found a significant decrease in negative affect when adopting a reappraisal strategy (decrease instruction) in the experimental task when participants were given verbal training instructions. However, these differences were not as strong when they were given in written form. Conclusions: Given that most disorders begin in the early decades of life and the current high prevalence of depression and anxiety in university students, as well the importance of emotion regulation in the onset or prevention of psychopathology, it is important to study these strategies worldwide. The current study presents evidence of reduced negative affect after using reappraisal during an experimental task in Mexican university students. Further, our results highlight the importance of matching processes and replicating results in different cultural contexts.
背景和抑郁和焦虑是最常见的精神障碍,近年来在大学生中的患病率有所上升。情绪调节策略的使用和调节成功是心理健康的预测,主要通过自我报告进行评估,特别是在拉丁美洲样本中。本研究试图在墨西哥学生样本中测试一个计算机化的情绪调节实验任务。方法:两名墨西哥本科生和研究生(样本I: n = 49,样本II: n = 40)完成了一项实验任务(内部墨西哥语西班牙语翻译)。参与者被要求减少负面影响(重新评估)或对负面或中性图像做出自然反应,并在之后立即自我报告影响。结果:我们发现在实验任务中采用重评策略(减少指示)时,在给予口头训练指示的情况下,被试的负性情绪显著降低。然而,当以书面形式给出时,这些差异就不那么明显了。结论:鉴于大多数障碍始于生命的最初几十年,以及当前大学生抑郁和焦虑的高患病率,以及情绪调节在精神病理学发病或预防中的重要性,在全球范围内研究这些策略是很重要的。目前的研究提供了证据,在墨西哥大学生的实验任务中使用重新评估后减少了负面影响。此外,我们的研究结果强调了在不同文化背景下匹配过程和复制结果的重要性。

Introduction and objectives: The main objective of the present study was to develop, from the PTSD Checklist (PCL), a self-report measure of posttraumatic stress symptoms based on the ICD-11 symptomatic criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Material and methods: Seven PCL items were selected to develop the PCL-ICD-11, and its psychometric properties were analyzed in a sample of 634 victims of terrorism who completed the specific version of the PCL (PCL-S) along with a structured diagnostic interview and measures of depression and anxiety. Results: The results indicate that the PCL-ICD-11 shows a unifactorial structure with good fit indices that is replicated in two subsamples of victims created randomly from the global sample. The PCL-ICD-11 shows excellent indices of internal consistency (α > .85) and very good indices of diagnostic validity to identify PTSD (AUC > .90 and kappa ≥ .75), discriminates significantly and with large effect sizes (d = 0.88

R A C T Background: In mental health, the use of mobile applications (apps) in assesment and intervention is being incorporated to improve the therapeutic process and outcomes. Objective: to examine the availability of mobile applications in Spanish for the evaluation and intervention in mental health with clinical and non-clinical population. Method: A search of scientific literature published during the last five years in Scopus, PubMed and PSY- Cinfo. Those articles that studied the functioning of a mobile application for assesment or intervention in mental health in adult population from Spain were selected. Results: Of 193 articles identified, 11 were selected for the systematic review. Results are presented according to the population attended (general population or clinical population) and within the clinical popula- tion, according to the symptoms addressed. Conclusions: Although the use of mobile applications in Spanish in the field of mental health is still limited, there are promising results that point to the need for further field to enhance the quality and efficiency of mental health care.

Background: The Patient Health Questionnaire-15 (PHQ-15) is among the most commonly used questionnaires to assess somatic symptoms in primary care settings. The aim of our study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the studies that have analysed individual items from the PHQ-15 to determine the influence of differences in sociodemographic and clinical variables. Methods: This systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA statement. Studies analysing PHQ-15 by individual items were searched in Medline/PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, Scopus from 1999 to November 2019. Results: Data were extracted from 13 studies. The most frequently reported symptoms were “pain in your arms, legs, or joints”, “back pain”, “headaches”, and “feeling tired or having low energy”. In patients with mental health disorders (depression, anxiety disorder, and somatoform disorder), the most commonly reported somatic symptoms were “trouble sleeping”, “feeling tired or having low energy”, and digestive symptoms. In the meta-analysis, females scored significantly higher than males on 3 of 14 items: “headaches” (odds ratio [OR] 2.16, p<.001), “dizziness” (OR 1.58, p<.001), and “stomach pain” (OR 1.46, p<.02), with a small to moderate effect size for these differences. Conclusions: Gender differences were detected for three items (headaches, dizziness, and stomach pain), although the magnitude of these differences was small. Further research is needed to better understand the relationship between individual items and other sociodemographic variables. In addition, more research is needed to determine measurement invariance across various demographic groups.

Introduction and Objectives: In Mexico, the indication to shelter in place due to COVID-19 began on March 14, 2020. To date, there are few studies on risk factors and protectors of the impact of this confinement. The aim was to evaluate a structural model of the perceived impact in different areas of the person’s life due to confinement by COVID-19, including stress tolerance and life satisfaction as predictors. Patients or Materials and Methods: This was a longitudinal paired groups study, seeking to identify the effect of the independent variables with two months between evaluations (evaluation 1: stress tolerance and life satisfaction) on the dependent one (evaluation 2: impact). Were included 158 people with mean age of 31.8 years (SD = 11.1), 65.2% women. Results: The structural model confirms the effect of stress tolerance and life satisfaction on the perceived impact of confinement in the areas of emotional well-being, physical condition, health, happiness and tranquility. Conclusions: It is concluded that stress tolerance and life satisfaction can be protectors of the impact of confinement in those areas in which the person can modify their behavior or thoughts.
