RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Considering methodological difficulties and inconsistent results of previous studies on it, the objective was to describe the change in nursing student self-esteem over time and its predictors, using a sound theoretical framework and relevant tools to measure and analyse the data. METHOD: Cohort study. Self-esteem and related factors were assessed in nursing students in a 4-year bachelor's program at the beginning of each academic year from 2017 to 2019 and at the end of the academic year in May 2020, using he revised version of Self-liking/Self-competence scale of Tafarodi and Swann. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed via generalized linear mixed modelling. RESULTS: Self-esteem was moderate at the beginning of the program: 50.40 (9.10). It increased slightly over time: 51.15 (9.11) at T1; 51.64 (0.49) at T2; and 51.39 (10.79) at T3 (P = .002). Baseline variables that predicted self-esteem change were gender, secondary school graduation level, state anxiety, intent to continue, and self-efficacy. Assessing and improving those last variables via a strong career plan could boost student achievement and increase retention during and after training. CONCLUSION: Nursing student self-esteem can be assessed using a bidimensional model, with a two-factor scale like Tafarodi & Swann's self-liking/self-competence scale. Generalized linear mixed model is a useful way to correlate large sets of longitudinal data.

RESUMEN

Background: Appraisals are central to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Yet, few studies have examined how culture influences the associations between different types of trauma-related appraisals and PTSD symptoms.Objective: This study investigated cultural influences on appraisals of control and their associations with PTSD symptoms.Method: European Australian (n = 140, Mage = 35.80, SD = 12.44; 21 men, 97 women, 20 gender diverse/prefer not to report) and Chinese Australian (n = 129, Mage = 30.16, SD = 8.93, 21 men, 97 women, 20 gender diverse/prefer not to report) trauma survivors completed measures of appraisals, cultural values, and PTSD symptoms.Results: Findings showed that the Chinese Australian group was associated with greater Chinese cultural beliefs about adversity (i.e. emphasizing the value of adversity and people's ability to overcome adversity) and fewer fatalism appraisals (i.e. appraising one's destiny as externally determined), which in turn were atemporally associated with fewer PTSD symptoms; these atemporal indirect associations were moderated by self-construal and holistic thinking. The Chinese Australian group also reported fewer secondary control appraisals (i.e. attempts to change aspects of the self and accept current circumstances), which were atemporally associated with greater PTSD symptoms. In contrast, the European Australian group was associated with fewer primary control appraisals (i.e. perceived ability to personally change or control a situation), which were atemporally associated with greater PTSD symptoms.Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance of considering the influence of culture on appraisals in PTSD. However, it must be noted that causal relationships cannot be inferred from cross-sectional mediation analyses and thus, future longitudinal research is needed.

Chinese Australian trauma survivors were associated with greater reporting of Chinese cultural beliefs about adversity and fewer fatalism appraisals, which were associated with fewer PTSD symptoms. These associations were moderated by a trauma survivor's self-construal and level of holistic thinking.Chinese Australian trauma survivors reported fewer secondary control appraisals, which were associated with greater PTSD symptoms.European Australian trauma survivors were associated with fewer primary control appraisals, which were associated with greater PTSD symptoms.

RESUMEN

Background: There are serious doubts as to whether parental strictness, one of the two main dimensions of parental style, can be a negative or positive component of parenting in traditional societies. Method: Parenting style (authoritarian, authoritative, indulgent, and neglectful) was captured from strictness and warmth dimensions and child maladjustment was assessed with problems of self-esteem and self-concept (academic, social, emotional, family, and physical) studied worldwide. The sample was composed of 1,282 Chinese participants (676 females, 52.7%), 581 adolescent children (age ranging from 12-18 years, 45.3%), and 701 young adult children (age ranging from 19-31 years, 54.7%). A 4 × 2 × 2 factorial MANOVA was applied for all outcomes using parenting style, sex, and age as the independent variables. Results: The statistical analysis plainly indicated that authoritarian (strictness but not warmth) and neglectful (neither strictness nor warmth) parenting styles were associated with higher maladjustment in terms of lower self-esteem and self-concept scores. Indulgent (not strictness but warmth) and authoritative (strictness and warmth) parenting were positive parenting styles acting as protective factors against self-esteem and self-concept problems. The authoritative style (strictness and warmth), but not the authoritarian parenting style (strictness but not warmth), was the most positive parenting for academic self-concept, but only among adolescents. Conclusions: Interestingly, completely contrary to expectations that authoritarian parenting might be a positive parenting in traditional societies, present findings suggest that the authoritarian style might be a negative parenting related to child maladjustment. (AU)

Antecedentes: Existen serias dudas sobre si la severidad parental, una de las dos dimensiones principales del estilo parental, puede ser un componente negativo o positivo de la socialización en las sociedades tradicionales. Método: El estilo parental (autoritario, autorizativo, indulgente y negligente) se evaluó a partir de las dimensiones de severidad y afecto, y el desajuste de los hijos por medio de problemas de autoestima y autoconcepto (académicos, sociales, emocionales, familiares y físicos) estudiados en todo el mundo. La muestra estaba compuesta por 1,282 participantes chinos (676 mujeres, 52.7%), 581 hijos adolescentes (de 12 a 18 años, 45.3%) y 701 hijos adultos jóvenes (de 19 a 31 años, 54.7%). Se aplicó un MANOVA factorial 4 × 2 × 2 para todos los criterios utilizando el estilo parental, el sexo y la edad como variables independientes. Resultados: El análisis estadístico indicó claramente que el estilo parental autoritario (severidad sin afecto) y el negligente (ni severidad ni afecto) estaban relacionados con un mayor desajuste, como indican las menores puntuaciones de autoestima y autoconcepto. El estilo indulgente (afecto sin severidad) y el autorizativo (severidad y afecto) fueron estilos parentales positivos que actuaron como factores protectores contra los problemas de autoestima y autoconcepto. El estilo autorizativo (severidad y afecto), pero no el autoritario (severidad sin afecto), fue el más positivo para el autoconcepto académico, pero sólo en los adolescentes. Conclusiones: En contra de las expectativas de que el estilo parental autoritario podría ser positivo para la socialización en las sociedades tradicionales, los presentes resultados sugieren que la socialización autoritaria es un estilo parental negativo relacionado con problemas de desajuste de los hijos.

RESUMEN

Resumo: Pesquisas têm evidenciado relações entre estratégias de resolução de conflitos e variáveis como idade, sexo, nível socioeconômico e cultura. Porém, a relação das estratégias com aspectos do funcionamento psicológico como o autoconceito tem sido pouco investigada, especialmente na pré-adolescência. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo verificar a existência de relações entre as estratégias de resolução de conflitos de pré-adolescentes e o seu autoconceito. Estas foram analisadas por meio das respostas dos participantes sobre o que fariam em situações de conflito descritas no Children's Action Tendency Scale (CATS). O questionário contém dez situações de conflito, ao final dos quais se pede que seja descrita a reação a cada uma. O autoconceito foi avaliado por meio das respostas dos participantes às vinte afirmações da Escala Multidimensional de Autoconceito para pré-adolescentes (AF5) sobre autoconceito e relações interpessoais. Os dados obtidos passaram por testes de correlação, verificando-se a associação entre estratégias como a assertiva e dimensões do autoconceito.

Abstract: Studies have shown relationships between conflict resolution strategies and variables including age, socioeconomic status, sex, and culture. However, the relationship between these strategies and aspects of psychological functioning such as self-concept has been little investigated, especially in pre-adolescence. This research aimed to verify the existence of relationships between the conflict resolution strategies reported by pre-adolescent children and their self-concept. The strategies were analyzed by the participants' answers about what they would do in ten conflict situations described in a questionnaire. These answers were categorized according to the type of reaction informed. Self-concept was assessed using the participants' responses to the 20 statements from the AF5 Self-Concept Questionnaire on self-concept and interpersonal relationships. The data obtained were tested for correlation, verifying the association between reported strategies such as assertiveness and self-concept dimensions.

Résumé : La recherche a montré des relations entre stratégies de résolution des conflits et des variables telles qu'âge, sexe, et culture. Cependant, la relation entre les stratégies et des aspectes du fonctionnement psychologique tels que concept de soi a été peut étudié, notamment à la préadolescence. Cette recherche visait à vérifier l'existence de relations entre les stratégies de résolution de conflits rapportées par les préadolescents et leur concept de soi. Les stratégies ont été vérifiées à travers les réponses des participants sur ce qu'ils feraient dans des situations conflictuelles décrites dans le Children's Action Tendency Scale, Le questionnaire contient dix situations conflictuelles et on leur a demandé de décrire leur réaction à chacune d'elles. Le concept de soi a été mesuré à travers de réponses des participants à l'Échelle multidimensionnelle du concept de soi pour des préadolescents sur leur autoreprésentation et leur relations interpersonnelles. Les données obtenues ont été soumis à des tests de corrélation, vérifiant la relation entre les stratégies rapportées comme la afirmation et la dimension du concept de soi.

Resumen: Estudios han demostrado las relaciones entre las estrategias de resolución de conflictos y las variables como edad, sexo, nivel socioeconómico y cultura. Sin embargo, la relación de estas estrategias con aspectos del funcionamiento psicológico como el autoconcepto ha sido poco investigada, sobre todo en cuanto a la adolescencia. Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo comprobar la existencia de relaciones entre las estrategias de resolución de conflictos de preadolescentes y su autoconcepto. Las estrategias se analizaron desde las respuestas de los participantes sobre qué harían en situaciones de conflictos descritas en Children's Action Tendency Scale . El cuestionario contiene diez situaciones de conflicto, y el participante describía su reacción ante la situación. El autoconcepto se evaluó mediante las respuestas de los participantes a veinte afirmaciones de la Escala Multidimensional de Autoconcepto para preadolescentes respecto al autoconcepto y relaciones interpersonales. Los datos obtenidos se sometieron a pruebas de correlación para comprobar si existe relación entre algunas estrategias, como la asertividad y las dimensiones del autoconcepto.

RESUMEN

El objetivo de este estudio es identificar qué estilo parental se asocia con resultados óptimos entre los adolescentes de familias españolas considerando aquellos con baja vs. alta autoeficacia. Los participantes fueron 1029 adolescentes españoles, 453 varones (44%), de 12 a 17 años. Aunque los estudios clásicos identifican el estilo autorizativo (basado en el afecto y la severidad) como la mejor estrategia socializadora, las investigaciones emergentes cuestionan seriamente los beneficios de la severidad parental. Además, el impacto de la socialización parental en la competencia psicosocial del adolescente se ha estudiado durante años, pero se sabe menos sobre si podría variar en función de las características individuales del adolescente (e.g., la autoeficacia). Las familias fueron clasificadas por estilo parental (autorizativo, autoritario, indulgente o negligente), y los adolescentes por baja vs. alta autoeficacia. La competencia psicosocial se examinó a través del autoconcepto emocional y académico, el desajuste psicológico (hostilidad/agresión, autoestima negativa, irresponsividad emocional, inestabilidad emocional y visión negativa del mundo) y el rendimiento académico (nota media y número de cursos repetidos). Se comprobaron los efectos principales y de interacción de estilo parental y autoeficacia. Los resultados de los efectos principales indicaron que los adolescentes con baja autoeficacia presentaban siempre la peor competencia psicosocial. También que los adolescentes de familias indulgentes y autorizativas presentaron mejores resultados que los de familias negligentes y autoritarias. Sin embargo, el estilo parental indulgente se asoció a los mejores resultados. El impacto de la socialización parental podría no ser igual en todos los contextos culturales. Frente a los resultados de los estudios clásicos, la severidad parental parece ser innecesaria o incluso perjudicial para los adolescentes con baja y alta autoeficacia.(AU)

The aim of this paper is to establish which parenting style is as-sociated with optimum outcomes among adolescents of Spanish families considering adolescents with low vs. high self-efficacy. Although classical studies identify the authoritative parenting style (based on warmth and strictness) as the best parental strategy, emerging research seriously ques-tions the benefits of parental strictness. Additionally, the impact of parent-ing on the adolescent’s psychosocial competence has been studied for years, but less is known about whether it might vary depending on individ-ual characteristics of the adolescent (e.g., self-efficacy). Participants were 1029 Spanish adolescents, 453 males (44%), aged 12-17 years. Families were classified in one of the parenting styles groups (authoritative, authori-tarian, indulgent, or neglectful), and adolescents were grouped by low vs. high self-efficacy. Adolescent psychosocial competence was examined through emotional and academic self-concept, psychological maladjust-ment (hostility/aggression, negative self-esteem, emotional responsivity, instability, and negative view of the world), and academic performance (grade point average and number of failing grades). Main and interaction effects of parenting style and adolescent self-efficacy were tested. Main ef-fect results indicated that adolescents with low self-efficacy were always as-sociated with the worst psychosocial competence. Consistently, the main effect findings indicated that adolescents from indulgent and authoritative families were associated with better results than those from neglectful and authoritarian families. However, the indulgent parenting style yielded the best results. The impact of parenting might not be the same for adoles-cents in all cultural contexts. Contrary to findings from classical studies, parental strictness seems to be unnecessary or even detrimental for adoles-cents with low and high self-efficacy.(AU)

RESUMEN

Motivation is one of the most studied elements in sport psychology due to its great potential to explain the attitude towards sport practice. Therefore, the present systematic review aims to analyse the effects of sport-oriented motivation on physical activity, anxiety and self-concept. The Web of Science and SCOPUS databases were used to select articles published between 2012 and 2022. The criteria established by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement were followed for the elaboration of the systematic review, with the final analysis sample comprising a total of 19 articles. Finally, the analysis of the data reveals that developing sport motivation from extrinsic or intrinsic values can help to decrease or increase anxiety levels. In addition, it is also observed that motivation developed through extrinsic values plays a key role in the abandonment of physical activity, due to the frustration and worsening of the mental image generated at a professional level when the proposed objectives are not achieved.(AU)

Actualmente, la motivación es uno de los elementos más estudiados en la psicología del deporte debido a su gran potencial para explicar la actitud hacia la práctica deportiva. Es por ello que la presente revisión sistemática presenta el objetivo de analizar los efectos de la motivación orientada hacia el deporte sobre la práctica de actividad física, la ansiedad y el autoconcepto. Para ello se han utilizado las bases de datos de Web of Science y SCOPUS eligiéndose los artículos publicados entre los años 2012 y 2022. Para la elaboración de la revisión sistemática se han seguido los criterios establecidos por la declaración de los Elementos de Información Preferidos para Revisiones Sistemáticas y Meta-Análisis (PRISMA), quedando la muestra final de análisis compuesta por un total de 19 artículos. Finalmente, el análisis de los datos revela que desarrollar una motivación deportiva desde valores extrínsecos o intrínsecos puede ayudar a disminuir o a aumentar los niveles de ansiedad. Además, también se observa como la motivación desarrollada a través de valores extrínsecos supone jugar un papel clave en el abandono de la práctica de actividad físico deportiva, debido a la frustración y empeoramiento de la imagen mental generada a nivel profesional cuando no se consiguen los objetivos propuestos.(AU)

RESUMEN

Los objetivos del estudio fueron identificar perfiles de autoconcepto físico y examinar su rol sobre la intención de ser físicamente activo y la regulación emocional. Una muestra de 606 practicantes de actividad física (Medad= 34,19; DT= 13,05) completó una serie de medidas de autoinforme que evaluaban el autoconcepto físico, la intención de ser físicamente activo y la regulación emocional Los análisis de conglomerados revelaron tres perfiles de autoconcepto físico. El perfil b con autoconcepto físico relativamente alto experimentó diferencias significativas en la intención de ser físicamente activo, autoculpa y reevaluación positiva. El perfil a con autoconcepto físico bajo mostró diferencias significativas en aceptación, rumiación y catastrofización. El perfil c con autoconcepto físico muy bajo reveló diferencias significativas en culpar a los demás. Como conclusión, el perfil b con autoconcepto físico relativamente alto está asociado con la mayor intencionalidad de ser físicamente activo y el uso de estrategias de regulación emocional funcionales. (AU)

The objectives of the study were to identify physical self-concept profiles and examine their role in the intention to be physically active and emotional regulation. A sample of 606 physical activity practitioners (Mage= 34.19, SD=13.05), completed a series of self-report measures that evaluated physical selfconcept, the intention to be physically active, and emotional regulation. Cluster analyzes revealed three profiles of physical self-concept. Profile b with relatively high physical self-concept experienced significant differences in intention to be physically active, self-blame, and positive reappraisal. Profile a with low physical self-concept showed significant differences in acceptance, rumination, and catastrophizing. Profile c with a very low physical self-concept revealed significant differences in blaming others. In conclusion, profile b with relatively high physical self-concept and with optimal scores in condition, attractiveness and strength is associated with a higher intention to be physically active and the use of functional emotional regulation strategies.

RESUMEN

Hoy en día se sabe que la actividad física influye positivamente en la salud tanto física como mental. Por ello, este estudio pretende arrojar luz sobre hasta qué punto la inteligencia emocional y el autoconcepto pueden ser útiles para reducir las conductas violentas en los deportistas españoles. Se realizó un estudio transversal sobre una muestra formada por 457 estudiantes universitarios (23,86 ± 12,24), que cursaban diferentes titulaciones en la Universidad de Granada. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron un cuestionario demográfico, la versión española de la Forma 5 de Autoconcepto, la versión española de la Escala de Violencia Escolar y la versión española del Inventario de Autoinforme de Schutte (ISIS). Los resultados revelan que casi la totalidad de la muestra practicaba actividad física con regularidad; además, las dimensiones mejor valoradas fueron la gestión de la autoestima en cuanto a la inteligencia emocional, la agresión relacional pura en cuanto al tipo de violencia, y la académica en cuanto al autoconcepto. Por último, se observó una correlación negativa entre la inteligencia emocional general y todos los tipos de violencia, así como entre todos los tipos de violencia y el autoconcepto académico. (AU)

Nowadays, physical activity is known to have a positive influence on both physical and mental health. Therefore, this study aims at shedding light on the extent to which emotional intelligence and self-concept may be useful to reduce violent behaviours in Spanish sportspeople. A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample consisted of 457 undergraduates (23.86 ± 12.24), who were studying different degrees in University of Granada. Instruments used were a demographic questionnaire, the Spanish version of the Self-Concept Form 5, the Spanish version of the School Violence Scale, and the Spanish version of the Schutte Self-Report Inventory (SSRI). Results reveal that nearly all of the sample regularly practised physical activity; moreover, the highest-rated dimension were Self-Emotional management as regards emotional intelligence, Pure Relational Aggression as for the type of violence, and academic with regards to self-concept. Lastly, there was a negative correlation between general emotional intelligence and all types of violence, as well as between all the types of violence and academic self-concept. (AU)

Hoje em dia, sabe-se que a actividade física tem uma influência positiva tanto na saúde física como mental. Por conseguinte, este estudo visa lançar luz sobre até que ponto a inteligência emocional e o auto-conceito podem ser úteis para reduzir comportamentos violentos nos desportistas espanhóis. Foi realizado um estudo transversal sobre uma amostra constituída por 457 estudantes universitários (23,86 ± 12,24), que estavam a estudar diferentes graus na Universidade de Granada. Os instrumentos utilizados foram um questionário demográfico, a versão espanhola do Formulário de Auto-Conceito 5, a versão espanhola da Escala de Violência Escolar, e a versão espanhola do Inventário de Auto-Relatórios Schutte (SSRI). Os resultados revelam que quase toda a amostra praticava regularmente actividade física; além disso, a dimensão mais elevada foi a gestão auto-mocional no que diz respeito à inteligência emocional, Pura Agressão Relacional no que diz respeito ao tipo de violência, e académica no que diz respeito ao auto-conceito. Finalmente, houve uma correlação negativa entre a inteligência emocional geral e todos os tipos de violência, bem como entre todos os tipos de violência e o auto-conceito académico. (AU)

RESUMEN

RESUMO A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo geral verificar a motivação para aprender de alunos do Ensino Fundamental II e o autoconceito deles relacionados a um fator, crianças acima do peso ideal. Participaram 414 alunos entre 10 a 16 anos de idade, dentre eles 74 com sobrepeso, obesidade ou obesidade grave. Os instrumentos aplicados foram o Questionário de Percepção Corporal, Escala de Motivação e Escala de Autoconceito Infanto-Juvenil. Os resultados mostram que em relação à motivação escolar, prevaleceu a regulação identificada e em relação ao autoconceito, constatou-se que o autoconceito pessoal teve uma média alta e o autoconceito social obteve a menor média. A correlação de Pearson mostrou relação entre a desmotivação e o autoconceito familiar; a motivação intrínseca também se correlacionou com o autoconceito geral e social. Por fim, a análise de regressão evidenciou relação de dependência entre a motivação intrínseca ao se tratar de autoconceito geral e autoconceito social.

Se aplicaron los instrumentos Cuestionario de Percepción Corporal, Escala de Motivación y Escala de Autoconcepto Infanto-Juvenil. Los resultados muestran que, con relación a la motivación escolar, prevaleció la regulación identificada y con relación al autoconcepto, se encontró que el autoconcepto personal tiene un promedio alto y el autoconcepto social el más bajo. La correlación de Pearson apuntó una relación entre la desmotivación y el autoconcepto familiar, la motivación intrínseca también se correlacionó con el autoconcepto general y social. Finalmente, el análisis de regresión apuntó una relación de dependencia entre la motivación intrínseca cuando se trata del autoconcepto general y el autoconcepto social.

ABSTRACT The present research has as general objective to verify the motivation to learn of Elementary School II students and their self-concept related to a factor, children above ideal weight. For data collection 414 students between 10 and 16 years old participated, among them 74 overweight, obese or severely obese. The instruments applied were the Body Perception Questionnaire, Motivation Scale and Child and Adolescent Self-Concept Scale. The results show that in relation to school motivation, the identified regulation prevailed and in relation to self-concept, it was found that the personal self-concept has a high average and the social self-concept was the lowest. Pearson's correlation showed a relationship among demotivation and family self-concept, intrinsic motivation also correlated with general and social self-concept. Finally, the regression analysis showed a dependency relationship between intrinsic motivation when dealing with general self-concept and social self-concept.

RESUMEN

Resumen Objetivos: Caracterizar representaciones sociales de la población latinoamericana sobre vida saludable, salud y bienestar; establecer similitudes, diferencias y discrepancias entre lo que las personas consideran la salud y el concepto de la OMS y la OPS. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo, transversal, multicéntrico (Colombia, Cuba, México, Panamá y Perú); empleando revisión bibliográfica, documental, encuesta y consulta a expertos mediante el método Delphi modificado. Universo: población 18 a 80 años; muestreo no probabilístico, criterio de conveniencia. Muestra 1,327 sujetos: Colombia (103); Cuba (80); México (1010); Panamá (84) y Perú (50). Se exploraron variables sociodemográficas, autoconcepto de vida saludable, salud, bienestar y actividades que generan y producen salud y bienestar. Los datos se procesaron en el paquete estadístico SPSS-20 para realizar estadística descriptiva; (tendencia central y correlación). Resultados: La población relaciona el autoconcepto de salud con ausencia de enfermedad y enfermedad con pérdida de salud, no con comportamientos que pueden generarla o perjudicarla (estilos de vida). La representación social del bienestar concede la mayor importancia al acceso a los servicios de salud. No existe diferenciación clara entre la representación social de salud y bienestar. Conclusiones: La población no se percibe como ente activo y transformador en las actividades que generan una vida saludable. La salud universal subyace en la representación social del bienestar al mostrar la importancia que le concede la población al acceso a servicios de salud. La conceptualización de la salud que propugna la OMS es algo no interiorizado por las personas de los países latinoamericanos encuestados.

Abstract Objectives: To characterize social representations of Latin-American population about health life, health and wellbeing establish similitudes, differences and discrepancies between what people consider health and the concept of the OMS and the OPS. Materials and methods: Descriptive study, transversal, multicenter (Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, Panama and Peru) employing bibliographic, documentary, survey and expert consultation using the modified Delphi method. Universe Population from 18 to 80 years old, non probabilistic sampling, convenience criteria. Sampling 1327 subjects: Colombia (103), Cuba (80), Mexico (1010), Panama (84) and Peru (50). Were explored sociodemographic variables, healthy life, health, wellbeing and activities autoconcept that generate and produce health and wellbeing. Data was processed in the statistic package SPSS 20 to perform descriptive statistic (central tendency and correlation). Results: The population relates the concept of health with absence of illness and illness with loss of health, not with behaviors that can generate or damage it life styles. The social representation of wellbeing gives the most important to the health services access. There is no clear differentiation between the social health and wellbeing representation. Conclusions: The population does not perceive itself as an active subject and transformer in the activities that generate a healthy life. The universal health underlays in the social representation of wellbeing when showing the importance population concedes to the access to health services. The concept of health promoted by the OMS is something not interiorized by Latin American countries.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Objectives: the present study examined the association of physical activity, muscular strength, and obesity indicators with self-concept in Chilean children. Methods: this cross-sectional study included 1078 Chilean children (mean age: 9.1 years [standard deviation: 1.1]; 598 boys). Physical activity was evaluated using the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children. Upper and lower limb strength was evaluated using a digital dynamometer and standing long jump performance, respectively. The general strength index was calculated based on z-score values. Obesity indicators used were height, weight, body mass index, and body fat. The self-concept test was used to determine the academic, social, emotional, family, physical self-concept dimensions and total self-concept of children. Results: the mean total self-concept was 3.3 (standard deviation: 0.5). Physical activity was associated with academic (ß: 0.32; p = 0.03), social (ß: 0.24; p = 0.04), family (ß: 0.13; p = 0.01), physical (ß: 0.46; p = 0.01) self-concept dimensions and total self-concept (ß: 0.22; p = 0.01), regardless of sex and age. Upper limb strength and general strength index were negatively associated with academic self-concept dimensions (ß: -0.02; p = 0.01 and ß: -0.13; p = 0.02) and total self-concept (ß: -0.04; p = 0.01). Body weight and body mass index were negatively associated with academic (ß: -0.01; p = 0.01 and ß: -0.01; p = 0.02) and physical self-concept dimensions (ß: -0.03; p = 0.03). Conclusions: these findings suggest that physical activity is positively related with self-concept. Thus, physical activity and self-percept must be considered as an essential social cognitive perspective to provide suitable mental health in children.

Introducción: Objetivos: el presente estudio examinó la asociación de indicadores de actividad física, fuerza muscular y obesidad con el autoconcepto en niños chilenos. Métodos: este estudio transversal incluyó a 1078 niños chilenos (edad media: 9,1 años [desviación estándar: 1,1]; 598 niños). La actividad física se evaluó mediante el Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children. La fuerza de los miembros superiores e inferiores se evaluó utilizando un dinamómetro digital y el rendimiento en salto de longitud de pie. El índice de fuerza general se calculó en base a los valores de z-score. Los indicadores de obesidad utilizados fueron altura, peso, índice de masa corporal y grasa corporal. Se utilizó el test de autoconcepto para determinar las dimensiones académicas, social, emocional, familiar, físico y autoconcepto total. Resultados: la muestra total presento un autoconcepto promedio de 3,3 (desviación estándar: 0,5). La actividad física se asocio con autoconcepto académico (ß: 0,32; p = 0,03), social (ß: 0,24; p = 0,04), familiar (ß: 0,13; p = 0,01), físico (ß: 0,46; p = 0,01) y total (ß: 0,22; p = 0,01). La fuerza muscular de miembros superiores y el índice general de fuerza se asociaran negativamente con al autoconcepto académico (ß: -0,02; p = 0,01 y ß: -0,13; p = 0,02) y total (ß: -0,04; p = 0,01). Mientras que el peso corporal e índice de masa corporal se asociaron negativamente con autoconcepto académico (ß: -0,01; p = 0,01 y ß: -0,01; p = 0,02) y físico (ß: -0,03; p = 0,03). Conclusiones: estos hallazgos sugieren que la actividad física se relaciona positivamente con el autoconcepto. Así, la actividad física y la autopercepción deben ser consideradas como una perspectiva cognitiva social imprescindible para proporcionar una adecuada salud mental en los niños.

RESUMEN

Objectives: the present study examined the association of physical activity, muscular strength, and obesity indicators with self-concept in Chilean children.Methods: this cross-sectional study included 1078 Chilean children (mean age: 9.1 years [standard deviation: 1.1]; 598 boys). Physical activity was evaluated using the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children. Upper and lower limb strength was evaluated using a digital dynamometer and standing long jump performance, respectively. The general strength index was calculated based on z-score values. Obesity indicators used were height, weight, body mass index, and body fat. The self-concept test was used to determine the academic, social, emotional, family, physical self-concept dimensions and total self-concept of children. Results: the mean total self-concept was 3.3 (standard deviation: 0.5). Physical activity was associated with academic (β: 0.32; p = 0.03), social (β: 0.24; p = 0.04), family (β: 0.13; p = 0.01), physical (β: 0.46; p = 0.01) self-concept dimensions and total self-concept (β: 0.22; p = 0.01), regardless of sex and age. Upper limb strength and general strength index were negatively associated with academic self-concept dimensions (β: -0.02; p = 0.01 and β: -0.13; p = 0.02) and total self-concept (β: -0.04; p = 0.01). Body weight and body mass index were negatively associated with academic (β: -0.01; p = 0.01 and β: -0.01; p = 0.02) and physical self-concept dimensions (β: -0.03; p = 0.03). Conclusions: these findings suggest that physical activity is positively related with self-concept. Thus, physical activity and self-percept must be considered as an essential social cognitive perspective to provide suitable mental health in children. (AU)

RESUMEN

Varios estudios han indicado que la atención plena (mindfulness)disposicional (APD) predice una mejor salud mental en los adolescentes. Elpresente estudio amplía la investigación previa al examinar las asociacioneslongitudinales recíprocas entre las facetas de MD y los problemas psicológicos.Además, se examina el posible papel mediador de las dimensiones deautoconcepto (AC). 832 adolescentes de entre 11 y 18 años completaronmedidas de MD, AC y problemas interiorizados y exteriorizados en dos tiemposde medida separados por seis meses. La APD no predijo cambios en problemaspsicológicos. Sin embargo, los problemas psicológicos predijeron en generalniveles más bajos de APD, algunas facetas de APD predijeron un aumento en lasdimensiones de AC, y AC predijo mayores niveles de APD y menos problemasexteriorizados. Además, actuar con conciencia medió la relación entre losproblemas exteriorizados y dos dimensiones de AC. Los resultados destacan elpapel beneficioso de tener un AC positivo para algunas dimensiones de APD, y viceversa. (AU)

Several studies have indicated that dispositional mindfulness (DM) predictsbetter mental health in adolescents. The current study expands previous researchby examining the reciprocal longitudinal associations between DM facets andpsychological problems. In addition, the potential mediating role of self-concept(SC) dimensions is examined. A sample of 832 adolescents aged between 11 and18 completed measures of DM, SC, and internalizing and externalizing problemsin two waves six months apart. DM did not predict changes in psychologicalproblems. However, in general, psychological problems predicted lower DM,some facets of DM predicted an increase in SC dimensions, and SC predictedhigher scores on DM and fewer externalizing problems. In addition, acting withawareness mediated the relationship between externalizing problems and two SCdimensions. Findings highlight the beneficial role of having a positive SC for some dimensions of DM, and vice versa. (AU)

RESUMEN

Resumen Introducción: Los avances científicos y tecnológicos del último siglo han promovido estilos de vida inactivos y nocivos para la salud humana, resultando en repercusiones tanto físicas como mentales que han terminado por acentuarse durante el confinamiento por la pandemia de COVID-19. Considerando a la actividad física como cualquier movimiento corporal producido por los músculos esqueléticos que exija gasto de energía se indagó su posible relación con los factores de estrés y ansiedad, al igual que su influencia sobre el autoconcepto y autoestima, dependiendo de las horas invertidas en la actividad física (considerando desde niveles sedentarios hasta ejercicio físico). Objetivo: Identificar la relación que tiene la actividad física con variables de la salud mental (el estrés, la ansiedad, el autoconcepto y la autoestima) en adultos jóvenes mexicanos. Método: Se utilizó una muestra no probabilística de 273 personas voluntarias, entre las edades de 18 a 25 años, quienes respondieron la Escala de Estrés Percibido, el Inventario de Ansiedad Rasgo-Estado, la Escala de Autoestima y el Listado de Adjetivos para la Evaluación del Autoconcepto en Adolescentes y Adultos. Resultados: Se llevó a cabo un análisis de correlación entre estrés y ansiedad, donde ambas variables mostraron significancia en la autoestima positiva, el autoconcepto físico y el autoconcepto emocional. El análisis de varianza mostró diferencias estadísticamente significativas en las variables de estrés, autoconcepto y autoestima total al compararse con algunos de los grupos. Los jóvenes sedentarios presentaron los niveles más altos de estrés, mientras que aquellos más físicamente activos mostraron mayor ansiedad. El grupo que realiza de 4 a 5 horas de ejercicio semanal presentó los niveles de autoconcepto y autoestima más altos. Discusión: La ansiedad mantiene una relación variable dependiendo de las horas dedicadas al ejercicio físico, mientras que el estrés se relaciona con el sentimiento de capacidad que la persona tiene de sí misma. El autoconcepto y autoestima se ven afectadas positivamente con la presencia de actividad física por un incremento de percepción de bienestar, control y salud emocional.

Abstract Introduction: The scientific and technological advances of the last century have promoted inactive and harmful lifestyles for human health, resulting in both physical and mental repercussions that have ended up being accentuated during the confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Considering physical activity as any body movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure, its possible relationship with stress and anxiety factors was investigated, as well as its influence on the self-concept and self-esteem, depending on the hours invested in physical activity (considering from sedentary levels to physical exercise). Objective: To identify the relationship between physical activity and mental health variables (stress, anxiety, self-concept, and self-esteem) in young Mexican adults. Method: A non-probabilistic sample of 273 volunteers was used, between the ages of 18 and 25, who answered the Perceived Stress Scale, the Trait-State Anxiety Inventory, the Self-Esteem Scale and the List of Adjectives for the Evaluation of Self-concept in Adolescents and Adults. Results: A correlation analysis between stress and anxiety was carried out, where both variables showed significance in positive self-esteem, physical self-concept and emotional self-concept. The analysis of variance showed statistically significant differences in the variables of stress, self-concept and total self-esteem when compared to some of the groups. Sedentary youths reported the highest levels of stress, while those who were more physically active reported higher anxiety. The group that performs 4 to 5 hours of weekly exercise presented the highest levels of self-concept and self-esteem. Discussion: Anxiety maintains a variable relationship depending on the hours dedicated to physical exercise, while stress is related to the feeling of capacity that the person has of himself. Self-concept and self-esteem are positively affected by the presence of physical activity due to an increase in the perception of well-being, control and emotional health.

RESUMEN

Resumen El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo establecer las características psicométricas y la estructura factorial subyacente a los ítems de la Escala de Autoconcepto AF5. Se realizó una investigación descriptiva de corte transversal. Se aplicó el instrumento en 1386 (798 mujeres y 588 hombres) estudiantes de tres universidades ubicadas en una ciudad de la región central del país, una de carácter público y dos privadas. Entre los resultados se encontraron adecuadas propiedades psicométricas para la prueba, así como una estructura hexadimensional del constructo, desde la cual el autoconcepto físico pareció subdividirse en dos dimensiones independientes, condición física y atractivo físico. A manera de conclusión puede indicarse que el AF5 se presenta como un instrumento sólido con adecuadas propiedades psicométricas para ser usado en muestras de estudiantes universitarios colombianos.

Abstract To establish the factorial structure underlying the items of the AF5 Self-Concept Scale. Descriptive, cross-sectional study. To carry it out, a validation study of the instrument was performed with 1382 students from three major universities located in a city in the central region of the country. Two out of the three universities were private, the sample was composed by 798 women and 588 men. Adequate psychometric properties were found for the test, as well as a six-dimensional structure of the construct, from which the physical self-concept seemed to be subdivided into two dimensions: physical condition and physical attractiveness, this dimension behaving as two independent factors. The AF5 is presented as a solid instrument with adequate psychometric properties to be used in samples of Colombian college students.

RESUMEN

Resumen La formación académica de los profesionales de ciencias de la salud lleva implícito el desarrollo armonioso e integral como ser humano, considerando, entre otros elementos, el autoconcepto y los estilos de vida a fin de que se constituya en un agente proactivo de cambio en el lugar donde se desempeñe. El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar la influencia del autoconcepto sobre los estilos de vida en estudiantes de una universidad privada de Lima Este. Su diseño es no experimental de tipo cuantitativo con enfoque explicativo-causal y transversal. El método de muestreo utilizado fue el no probabilístico. Participaron 135 estudiantes que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión y contó con la aprobación del Comité de Ética de la universidad. Para el logro de los objetivos, se aplicó el cuestionario de estilos de vida (PEPS-I), para la variable autoconcepto el test AF-5. En el análisis descriptivo, el promedio del perfil de estilos de vida corresponde a la dimensión autoactualización (43.2), seguido de la dimensión responsabilidad en la salud (26.1) y la dimensión ejercicio con el promedio más bajo (12.4). En el análisis de la variable autoconcepto, el autoconcepto social obtuvo mayor promedio (43.2) y el autoconcepto físico presentó menor promedio (28.2). Una vez concluido el estudio, se pudo afirmar que el autoconcepto influye significativamente sobre el estilo de vida de los estudiantes (β = .80; p < .05); es decir que el autoconcepto logró explicar el 80 % del perfil de estilo de vida que llevaban los estudiantes.

Abstract The academic formation of health science professionals involves their harmonious and integral development as human beings, considering, among other elements, self-concept and lifestyles, in order to become a proactive agent of change in the place where they work. Generally, health science students at the university level in Peru start as adolescents and continue into their later teenage years, a time when self-concept and behavior are developing with a relation between the two. Additionally, university students often do not eat a balanced diet, sleep an adequate number of hours each night, or do enough exercise during the week. This problem is compounded when they have a heavy course load, as is often the case for students in the health sciences. With this in mind, the objective of this study was to identify the influence of self-concept on lifestyles in students of a private university in eastern Lima. The study has a non-experimental design and it is a quantitative study with an explanatory-causal and cross-sectional approach. The sampling method used was non-probabilistic, and 135 students participated in the study, meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Their ages ranged from 16 to 24 years old (M = 20) and the majority of the participants were female (87 %). The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the university. Two previously validated instruments were chosen to measure the primary variables of the study. The Lifestyle Questionnaire (PEPS-I), consisting of 48 questions with answers on a Likert scale, consists of six factors and was chosen since it has already been validated with adolescents in Peru. The AF-5 has 30 questions grouped into five factors, and it was chosen for the self-concept variable since it has already been validated in a sample of university students in Peru. Both instruments were administered with the support of the Dean of the Faculty of Health Sciences of the university where the study was carried out. Teachers of different courses granted around 20 minutes of their class time for the study team members to come in, present the study, ask for informed consent, and then apply the instruments with those who were willing to participate. In the descriptive analysis, the average of the lifestyle profile corresponds to the self-realization dimension (43.2), followed by the health responsibility dimension (26.1) and the lowest average belongs to the exercise dimension (12.4). In the analysis of the self-concept variable, the social self-concept obtained the highest average (43.2) and the physical self-concept presented the lowest average (28.2). A model was developed to explore the relationships between the two variables and within the factors of each variable. This model shows that self-concept significantly influences the lifestyle of these students (β = .80; p < .05), that is, self-concept is able to explain 80 % of the lifestyle profile that the students currently hold. Within each variable, most of the factors for self-concept had values equal to or greater than .80, except for the family factor which had a value of .55 while the factors for lifestyles were all above .75 except for the exercise factor. Health science education at the university level should include integral formation not only about knowledge that can be used to treat future patients, but also about lifestyle changes that can help their own health. Self-concept and lifestyle are both in a process of formation during the university years, and they are related. Simply learning about the benefits of healthy lifestyles is not enough, as many health science students are taught these concepts but yet do not put them into practice. Social self-concept in particular, since it was the highest score among the related factors, could be a key way to encourage health science students to take what they learn and put it into practice in their own lives.

RESUMEN

Los estudiantes con altas capacidades, aquellos que presentan una mayor probabilidad de lograr metas extraordinarias en uno o más dominios, generalmente difieren del alumnado general en algunas de las dimensiones del autoconcepto, o la percepción que tiene una persona de sí misma. Sin embargo, la investigación actual sobre altas capacidades ha evolucionado introduciendo nuevos posibles moderadores en estas diferencias por lo que se hace necesaria una actualización sobre el tema. El objetivo del presente metaanálisis (referencia: CRD42018094723) fue sintetizar los estudios desde 2005 sobre las diferencias en el autoconcepto entre estudiantes con altas capacidades y alumnado general. Los resultados mostraron que los alumnos con altas capacidades presentan niveles superiores de autoconcepto global y académico, especialmente el matemático. Sin embargo, no se hallaron diferencias en autoconceptos conductual y emocional, y hubo puntuaciones levemente más bajas en autoconcepto social. En el autoconcepto físico, estos estudiantes puntúan notablemente más bajo que el alumnado general. Las diferencias en esta subdimensión están moderadas por los procedimientos de identificación, la procedencia y la edad, por lo que se sugieren que los estereotipos sociales acerca de las altas capacidades, así como los hábitos de actividad física podrían estar detrás de las dichas diferencias.(AU)

Gifted students (i.e., those who are more likely to achieve ex-traordinary goals in one or more domains) generally differ from the non-gifted students in some of the dimensions of self-concept (i.e., a person's perception of him/herself). However, the current research on giftedness has evolvedto introduce new possible moderators of these differences so it has become necessary to carry out an update on the topic. The aim of the present meta-analysis (reference: CRD42018094723) was to synthesise the studies since 2005 on differences in self-concept between gifted and non-gifted students. The results showed that gifted students have higher levels of general and academic self-concept, especially in math self-concept. However, no differences were found in behavioural and emotion-al self-concepts, andonly slightly lower scores in social self-concept. In physical self-concept they scored significantly lower than non-gifted stu-dents. The differences in this sub-dimension are moderated by identifica-tion procedures, geographical area, and age, so it is suggested that social stereotypes about giftedness as well as physical activity habits may be some of the reasons for these differences.(AU)

RESUMEN

l propósito de la investigación fue obtener evidencia psicométrica de la escala de Valoración del autoconcepto con población universitaria de una ciudad colombiana, denominada con la sigla EVA-42 y previamente desarrollada por los autores del presente estudio, con base en el modelo de autoconcepto de Shavelson. Para ello, se realizó un muestreo por conglomerados de 500 universitarios de sexo femenino y masculino, de edades entre 16 y 54 años a quienes se aplicó de manera digital el EVA-42. Se estimaron los indicadores de bondad de ajuste mediante Análisis factorial confirmatorio y correlaciones entre las sub-escalas del EVA42 y otro instrumento de medición de autoconcepto denominado AF5 para realizar evidencia de validez de criterio concurrente; así mismo, se estimaron coeficientes de fiabilidad por consistencia interna y se establecieron baremos mediante centiles. Los resultados del Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio soportan una estructura pentafactorial con CMIN/DF=1.758, RMSEA=.039, TLI=.950, CFI=.958 y NFI=.908, así como valores de Spearman-Brown y a>.8 para la fiabilidad de todas las subescalas. Se concluye que el instrumento es adecuado para la medición del autoconcepto con población universitaria colombiana.

he purpose of the research was to obtain psychometric evidence of a measuring self-concept with the university population of a Colombian city, called EVA-42 and previously developed by the authors based on the Shavelson self-concept model. To do this, a cluster sampling of 500 university students to whom the EVA-42 was applied digitally was carried out. Indicators of goodness of fit were estimated using CFA and correlations between the subscales of the EVA-42 and another instrument for measuring self-concept called AF5; Likewise, reliability coefficients were estimated by internal consistency and scales were established using centiles. The AFC results support a penta-factorial structure with CMIN / DF = 1.758, RMSEA = .039, TLI = .950, CFI = .958 and NFI = .908, as well as Spearman-Brown values and a> .8 for reliability of all subscales. It is concluded that the instrument is adequate for measuring self-concept with the Colombian university population.
