Item type:Publication, Aproximación a la salud y bienestar en estudiantes universitarios: importancia de las variables sociodemográficas, académicas y conductuales(Universidad Internacional de La Rioja, 2020-01-01)The aims of the study were to evaluate health and well-being among a sample of Peru-vian students attending a private university and identify sociodemographic, academic and behavioral variables associated with them. The study assessed 1073 students; the majority reported a positive perception of their health but there is evidence of physical and logical symptoms. Multiple regression analyses were performed for each health indicator, and there were small but robust models for Global Perceived Health (R2 = .16, p <.001) Physical Health (R2 = .09, p <.001) and Mental Health (R2 = .15, p <.001). Regarding well-being, models were found for Positive Affect (R2 = .16, p <.001), Negative Affect (R2 = .15, p <.001) and Flourishing (R2 = .19, p <.001). These findings support the need for health promotion initiatives in universities. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Estrés académico en universitarios peruanos: importancia de las conductas de salud, características sociodemográficas y académicas(Universidad de San Martín de Porres, 2021-12-23)Antecedentes: la etapa universitaria enfrenta a los estudiantes a situaciones específicas del contexto que podrían resultarles estresantes. Para reconocer esta experiencia se propone el término estrés académico, el cual desencadena síntomas que pueden afectar su salud. describir la prevalencia del estrés académico, sus componentes y analizar el rol de variables sociodemográficas, académicas y conductuales en las dimensiones del estrés.

Item type:Publication, Trastorno de juego por internet y función parental en estudiantes universitarios(2021-08-16)behavioral addictions, and particularly video game addiction, are showing a notable rise in recent years, which is why the latter is already considered a disorder by the WHO. This disorder has been researched in relation to various variables highlighting the importance of the family context; which is why it´s recommended to delve deeper regarding specific aspects about the role that the relationship between parent and child can have in the development of said addictions. Analyze the relation between the risk of developing Internet gaming disorder (IGD) and the perception a group of university students have of their parents´ parenting process (maternal and paternal). Method: 94 university students belonging to science faculties from Lima, Perú participated. The Internet Gaming Disorder Test - IGD-20 (Pontes et al., 2014) and the Adolescent Family Process scale - AFP (Vazsonyi et al., 2003) were used. Results: significant associations between both constructs were found in relation to the mother’s parenting, but not with the father´s parenting. It shows a positive correlation between IGD and the perception of support from the mother (r=.24, p - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Caregiver burden, coping and social support in parents of children with cancer(Universidad Complutense Madrid, 2024-04-11)Aim: To analyze the relationship between coping strategies, social support, characteristics of migrant parent caregivers and their children with cancer on caregiver overload of such parents. Zarit Burden Interview (Zarit et al., 1980), the COPE Inventory (Carver et al., 1989) and the MOS Social Support Questionnaire (Sherbourne y Stewart, 1991) were used. Method: Eighty-two caregivers (67 mothers and 15 fathers) residing in shelters for children with cancer and their caregivers, who migrated to the city to receive treatment, participated in this study. Results: Two regression models were performed to evaluate the impact of demographic and psychological variables on caregiver burden, the first model involves the global social support scale (R2 adjusted=.43, F=9.73, p<.001) and the second the specific scales (R2 adjusted=.45, F=8.23, p<.001). Results: There is evidence the predictive role of coping strategies such as acceptance, positive reinterpretation and growth, focus and venting of emotions; global and affective social support; and sociodemographic characteristics such as parental level of education and child age in caregiver burden. Most of these variables have an inverse relationship with caregiver burden. Conclusions: The results of the study underline the crucial importance of investigating caregiver burden in the context of vulnerability. In addition, the study highlights the importance of factors such as coping strategies and social support, which play a key role in influencing caregiver burden. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Effects of resilience, social support, and academic self-efficacy on mental health among Peruvian university students during the pandemic: The mediating role of digital inclusion(Frontiers Media SA, 2024-01-01)Mental health of university students has been impacted during the pandemic, highlighting the importance of understanding its psychosocial determinants. Nevertheless, there has been limited exploration into whether the digital inclusion conditions for remote education could mediate the effects that variables such as resilience, social support, and academic self-efficacy may have on mental health. Considering the above, there is evidence that shows a consistent relationship between resilience, social support and academic self-efficacy on mental health, to the extent that these are psychological variables. On the other hand, digital inclusion, which comprehends a contextual variable, not a psychological one, related to ICT access opportunities and mainly focused on the quality of Internet access, should be analyzed in a differential manner. Objectives: This study seeks to analyze the effect of resilience, social support and academic self-efficacy, on the mental health of a group of Peruvian university students; in addition, it seeks to analyze the mediating role of digital inclusion. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 3,147 undergraduate students from a private university in Lima, Perú. From August to October 2020, data were collected online through questionnaire, this include The Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale 21 (DASS-21), The 10-item version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC10), The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (EMASP), The Perceived Self-Efficacy Specific for Academic Situations Scale (EAPESA) and to measure digital inclusion, the Perceived Quality of Internet Access reported by the students. The levels of participants’ anxiety, depression and stress were described using frequency and percentage. Pearson Correlation test was used to measure the correlation between the variables and a Path analysis was conducted. Finally, The PROCESS macro for SPSS (Model 4) was applied to examine the mediating effect of the model controlling gender variable. Results: The results revealed significant levels of extremely severe symptoms of anxiety (36.8%), depression (33.4%) and stress (18.1%) among the participants. A path analysis, which indicated that resilience (β = −0.346), social support (β = −0.189), academic self-efficacy (β = −0.060) and digital inclusion (β = −0.089) had significant impact on students’ General Distress. In addition, digital inclusion plays a partial mediation role with low but significant effect size in the relationship between resilience, social support and self-efficacy with mental health. Conclusion: Mental health of university students during the pandemic shows alarming levels of general or emotional distress. The findings indicate that resilience, social support and self-efficacy protect college students’ mental health by reducing general distress. However, the study shows that when there is a digital divide around internet quality the impact of these factors is affected. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Bienestar, espiritualidad y temor al COVID-19 en adultos mayores durante el primer año de pandemia(Universidad de Lima, 2024-02-16)La pandemia del COVID-19 ha generado estragos a nivel mundial. En este contexto, merece particular atención la salud mental del grupo más vulnerable, los adultos mayores. Por ello, esta investigación buscó estudiar las relaciones entre el miedo al COVID-19, la espiritualidad y el bienestar de una muestra de 169 adultos mayores limeños durante el primer año de la pandemia. Además, al hallarse relaciones significativas, se evaluó cuáles son fueron las variables que más impactaron en el bienestar de este grupo. Previamente, se analizaron las diferencias en estas variables según las características sociodemográficas y de salud reportadas. Para medir el bienestar se utilizaron las escalas de Florecimiento, SPANE-P y SPANE-N (Diener et al., 2010); para el temor al COVID-19, la FCV-19S (Ahorsu et al., 2022), y para la espiritualidad, el SBI-15R (Holland et al., 1998). Los resultados encuentran relaciones significativas entre el miedo al COVID-19 y todas las medidas de bienestar. También se encontró una relación directa y significativa entre la espiritualidad y la afectividad positiva. Con respecto a las variables más explicativas del bienestar de la muestra, los modelos de regresión revelaron que el reporte de una enfermedad crónica y el miedo al COVID-19 eran las variables que más explicaban el florecimiento (R2 ajustado=.4, p<001). Por su parte, el miedo al COVID-19 y la religiosidad eran las que impactaban negativamente en la afectividad positiva (R2 ajustado=.19, p<001). Por último, el miedo al COVID-19 y el diagnóstico de COVID-19 fueron las variables explicativas de la afectividad negativa (R2 ajustado=.33, p<.001). - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Psychometric properties of the Post-traumatic Growth Inventory in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic: Bifactor model invariance(Asoc. Espanola de Psicologia Clinica y Psicopatologia, 2024-01-01)The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI; Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1996) assesses growth experiences following traumatic events, such as those experienced during the COVID19 pandemic. However, its factor structure is still under debate, suggesting that a bifactor model might best represent the structure of the test. This study examined the psychometric properties of this instrument with a sample of 615 Peruvian adults. Confirmatory factor analyses revealed that a bifactor model, which included a general factor and five specific factors, proved to be the best fit to the data (SBSχ2 (df)= 909.26(184), CFI =1, RMSEA =.066, SRMR =.046). We found evidence of configural invariance between the group that reports deceased relatives by COVID19 and the group that does not. In addition, adequate internal consistency indices were found. This study supports adequate psychometric properties of the PTGI. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Factors influencing grief in college students: A structural equation modeling analysis(Routledge, 2026-01-01)This study used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to investigate factors influencing past and present grief among 2,167 Peruvian undergraduate students after the COVID-19 pandemic. While the pandemic’s impact on student mental health is documented, this research addresses a gap by analyzing the interplay among sociodemographic variables, contextual factors (death and non-death losses), and psychological mechanisms, specifically grief-related irrational beliefs and coping strategies. Results indicated that grief-related distress was elevated among women and students who had experienced caregiver loss, COVID-19 infection, or financial/academic setbacks. Grief correlated directly with irrational beliefs and coping strategies such as cognitive reappraisal and emotional overload, whereas support seeking showed an inverse correlation on grief. The structural model demonstrated adequate fit (CFI = 0.962; TLI = 0.964; RMSEA = 0.061; SRMR = 0.071), supporting the hypothesized relationships among variables. These pandemic losses and psychological mechanisms determine grief intensity, underscoring the vital need for specific grief support programs. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Psychometric Properties of the Life Styles Questionnaire of University Students (CEVJU-Peru)(AIDEP, 2023-01-01)This study aims at analyzing the psychometric properties of the CEVJU-Peru, which is based on the best 30 items of the Lifestyles of Young University Students Questionnaire (CEVJU, by its Spanish abbreviation) by Arrivillaga et al. (2003). This study counted with the participation of 1 265 students aged 18 to 30 years old from six Peruvian universities. Regarding validity, CFA and ESEM analyses were performed. It was found that ESEM's rates showed better adjustment rates, corroborating the six-area structure. Statistically significant correlations were found between some areas of the test, which supports the multidimensional structure. Finally, regarding reliability, alpha and omega coefficients over .60 were found for the six areas of the test. The 30-item version of the CEVJU-Peru is a valid and reliable instrument for use with Peruvian university students.
