The aim of this theoretical study is to learn which cognitive, emotional, attitudinal, and behavioural variables involved in relationships are related to sexist attitudes by adolescents and how they relate to one another. After searching scientific articles published between 2005 and 2018 on PsycINFO, Psicodoc, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, 1,170 studies were obtained. After conducting the selection process, 20 were included in the review. The results of these studies show that adolescents who display attitudes that are more sexist have a more positive attitude towards intimate partner violence, greater sexual risk behaviours, greater attraction to sexist partners, greater support for the myth of idealized love and myth of love-abuse link, greater emotional dependence on the partner, and poorer quality in relationships, revealing gender-based differences in some of the mentioned variables. It is concluded that sexist attitudes are related to harmful forms of intimate interaction among teenagers.
这项理论研究的目的是了解关系中涉及的哪些认知、情感、态度和行为变量与青少年的性别歧视态度有关,以及它们之间的关系。在检索2005年至2018年在PsycINFO、Psicodoc、PubMed、Scopus和Web of Science数据库上发表的科学文章后,获得了1170项研究。在进行遴选过程后,20人被纳入审查范围。这些研究结果表明,表现出更多性别歧视态度的青少年对亲密伴侣暴力的态度更积极,性风险行为更大,对性别歧视伴侣的吸引力更大,对理想化爱情和爱虐待联系神话的支持程度更高,对伴侣的情感依赖程度更高,关系质量更差,揭示了上述变量的性别差异。结论是,性别歧视态度与青少年中有害的亲密互动形式有关。

Intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) is the most common form of violence suffered by women and constitutes a serious public health problem of global proportions. Public attitudes towards IPVAW are key to understanding the social context in which this type of violence occurs. Victim-blaming attitudes are among those that reflect public tolerance and acceptability of IPVAW and are often used to explain or justify IPVAW. In this study we develop and validate a new instrument to assess victim-blaming attitudes in cases of IPVAW. A sample of 1,800 participants was recruited through social media and a second sample of 50 IPVAW offenders was used for validation purposes. Through a cross-validation approach and by fitting an item response theory model to the data, we found that the latent structure of the instrument was one-dimensional and particularly informative for medium and high levels of victim-blaming attitudes. Differential item functioning analysis showed that item parameters did not differ by gender. We found, in addition, that (a) our measure was strongly related to acceptability and perceived severity of IPVAW, and also to ambivalent sexism, (b) men presented higher levels of victim-blaming attitudes than women, and (c) IPVAW offenders showed higher levels of victimblaming attitudes than men from the general population. A five-item short version of the scale is also presented for use in studies with limited application time or space. Our findings confirm that this new scale is a reliable and valid measure to assess victim-blaming attitudes in cases of IPVAW.

The objective of the present study was to analyze the relationships between child-to-parent violence and parental socialization styles with the problematic use of social networking sites, alexithymia and attitude towards institutional authority in adolescents. A sample of 2,399 adolescents (50.2% boys and 49.8% girls) enrolled in schools in Andalusia, aged between 12 and 18 years (M = 14.63, SD = 1.91) participated in the study. A MANOVA 4 × 2 × 2 was carried out. The results showed that high child-to-parent violence was related to high levels of problematic use of social networking sites, alexithymia, and a more positive attitude towards the transgression of social norms. It was also found that adolescents from families with an indulgent style showed the lowest scores in problematic use of social networking sites, alexithymia, and positive attitude towards the transgression of social norms. Additionally, in situations of high child-to-parent violence, girls had higher scores in problematic use of social networking sites and alexithymia than boys. Finally, the results and their practical implications are discussed.

In this study, the association between parenting styles and short- and long-term socialization outcomes was analyzed using a two-dimensional model of four types of parenting styles. The socialization outcomes analyzed were self-esteem and internalization of social values. Participants were a sample of Spanish adolescents (n = 571) and older adults (n = 527). Results showed that both adolescents and older adults from indulgent families reported equal or even higher self-esteem than those from authoritative households, whereas those from neglectful and authoritarian homes were consistently associated with the lowest levels of self-esteem. Regarding internalization of social values, adolescents and older adults raised in indulgent and authoritative families prioritized self-transcendence values (universalism and benevolence) and conservation values (security, conformity, and tradition) as compared to those from authoritarian and neglectful homes, whereas those from neglectful and authoritarian families showed lower scores in all internalization of social values measures. These results suggest that the combination of high levels of parental warmth and involvement and low levels of strictness and imposition (i.e., indulgent parenting style) is an optimum parenting strategy in the cultural context where the study was conducted, and that the link between parenting styles and socialization outcomes share a common short- and long- term pattern.

For long it was thought that people with intellectual disabilities (ID) were not adversely affected by stress and therefore were not d in stress research. In this paper, the Spanish adaptation of the Coping Strategies Inventory (CSI) was applied to 262 adults aged between 20 and 74 years old, 108 with ID and 154 without ID from Burgos, Spain. People with ID showed significant aged-related differences in social support in relation to age, people over 40 scoring higher than people over 50. In the group of people without ID, women used more strategies focused on search for support (M = 15.05, SD = 6.21) and on emotion-release (M = 12.16, SD = 4.3) than men (M = 10.00, SD = 6.21; M = 8.29, SD = 5.26), but men resorted more to the social withdrawal strategy (M = 8.09, DT = 5.19) than women (M = 5.05, DT = 3.82). People with ID were found to use problem solving, cognitive restructuring, and social support strategies less frequently than people without ID.

A goal in the treatment of people with severe mental disorder is their insertion in the workplace. Labor rehabilitation centers (CRLs) combine different strategies to promote their employment. The aim is to describe the status of former CRL users after leaving the facility and to identify possible variables related to obtaining employment. An observational study with control group was carried out. The group of subjects who had labor activity after leaving the center (n = 24) was compared with the subjects who had no employment (n = 46) from the CRLs of Retiro and Vallecas. The variables related to obtaining employment were user’s prior clinical status (substance use and number of hospital admissions), direct (p = .019) and indirect (p = .00) support, training in active job search (p = .018), and in CV preparation and interview (p = .006), as well as the type of CRL output (p = .00). The results indicate that the programs that are applied in Labor Rehabilitation Centers are effective for the acquisition and maintenance of employment. A greater number of studies are needed to help better understand these effects.

Intimate partner violence prevention is a challenge that has received wide international interest. Homicide is the most serious result of this type of violence, although its prevalence is low and its etiology is complex. This paper briefly reviews the description of the problem from a gender perspective and the existence of asymmetry, the perspective of violence and its description of differential risk factors, and the ecological model that connects personal, contextual, and societal variables, presenting a more integrative proposal. Studies analyzing and comparing homicide profiles are described, as well as the state of the art regarding risk assessment, with special attention to the implications for the Spanish context. Finally, due to its relevance, the existence of typologies of homicides as well as profiles closer to suicidal patterns are discussed (in dyadic homicides and familicides). The available information highlights the need to expand the study of intimate partner homicides and the difficulty of anticipating many of these cases.

The remarkable development of tools for the structured assessment of violent reoffending of intimate partner aggressors coexists with a relative scarcity of tools adapted for the diversity of community facilities for women who suffer intimate partner violence (IPV). This situation prompted the development of the RVD-Bcn in Catalonia (Spain). The present multisite prospective study is the first to test the predictive validity of this tool for IPV risk assessment in a sample different to the original. Trained assessors interviewed 321 women in five community health facilities in Cordoba (Argentina); 230 of them completed a follow-up that ranged from 47 to 311 days. Incidents of physical IPV, including serious threats and forced sex, were recorded prospectively. Rates of IPV in the low, moderate and high-risk groups were 10, 57, and 33 percent, respectively. The summary risk ratings were significantly associated with the occurrence of violence during follow-up, as were RVD scores (ROC-AUCs = .88 and .89, respectively). Low-risk participants not only suffered fewer IPV events than participants in the moderate and high-risk group, but also suffered them later in time. The most accurate predictive model of IPV included total scores and a dichotomised variable of low vs. moderate-high summary risk rating. Findings contribute to the emerging practice of including structured violence risk assessment in Latin American professional contexts and institutions.

The aim of this study is to assess the outcome of a brief mindfulness training program on mindful attention, self-compassion, and professionals’ quality of life in palliative care teams. A pre-post pre-experimental study was carried out. Thirty-six professionals from palliative care teams from Madrid (Spain) participated in the study. Mindfulness, self-compassion, and professionals’ quality of life were assessed. Evaluations were carried out at the beginning of the intervention and two weeks after the intervention, which lasted six weeks. The program’s results were assessed using multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA). After the intervention, there was an improvement of mindfulness, self-compassion, and burnout risk levels lowered, regardless of the profession. This mindfulness based short psychosocial intervention in a group of palliative care professionals was associated to an improvement of self-awareness levels and self-compassion, and a decrease of perceived burnout risk.

Resilience is understood as the domain of personal resources and contextual factors that allow for a successful coping and enhance positive adaptation to the different stressors during the lifespan, thereby being important for a healthy and successful aging. Nowadays, several brief instruments have been developed to measure resilience, such as the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (BRCS), an instrument that measures the ability of people to confront stress in an adaptive way. In this vein, the study provides evidence of the validity and reliability of the BRCS in non-institutionalized older adults in Peru. Two hundred thirty-six elderly people of both genders, 78.4% women and 21.6% men, with a mean age of 72.8 years (SD = 6.90), who answered the Spanish version of the BRCS and other scales to measure satisfaction with life, humor as coping, and depression. Confirmatory factor analysis corroborates the one-dimensional structure of the BRCS. The coefficients of internal consistency, Chronbach?s alpha and omega, indicated an adequate reliability of the BRCS. Both the adjustment indices of the model and the values of the coefficients of reliability were higher compared to those reported in the literature. The BRCS showed positive and significant correlations with satisfaction with life and humor as coping (p < .01). Likewise, negative and significant correlations were observed with depression (p < .01). The results that the BRCS has proved valid and reliable, supporting its use as a short measure of resilience in older Peruvians.

Nowadays, several brief instruments have been developed to measure resilience, such as the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (BRCS), an instrument that measures the ability of people to confront stress in an adaptive way. In this vein, the study provides evidence of the validity and reliability of the BRCS in non-institutionalized older adults in Peru. Two hundred thirty-six elderly people of both genders, 78.4% women and 21.6% men, with a mean age of 72.8 years (SD = 6.90), who answered the Spanish version of the BRCS and other scales to measure satisfaction with life, humor as coping, and depression. Confirmatory factor analysis corroborates the one-dimensional structure of the BRCS. The coefficients of internal consistency, Chronbach?s alpha and omega, indicated an adequate reliability of the BRCS. Both the adjustment indices of the model and the values of the coefficients of reliability were higher compared to those reported in the literature. The BRCS showed positive and significant correlations with satisfaction with life and humor as coping (p < .01). Likewise, negative and significant correlations were observed with depression (p < .01). The results that the BRCS has proved valid and reliable, supporting its use as a short measure of resilience in older Peruvians.","PeriodicalId":51641,"journal":{"name":"Psychosocial Intervention","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49662887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
