    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.

    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

    Validation of the Spanish version of the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire (SACQ-50) with Peruvian students
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022-11-03)
    To evaluate the psychometric properties of the short version of the Spanish Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire (SACQ-50, Spanish version). Participants: 1513 students from 14 universities in Peru, mainly females (61.5%), aged between 18 and 30 years. Method: Cross-sectional study with the questionnaire administered in person. Confirmatory factorial analysis was conducted to confirm the scale validity. Results: adequate fits were obtained for the multidimensional structure and for the second order factor of the test. Alpha and omega coefficients indicated adequate test reliability. Conclusions: The Spanish version of the SACQ-50 is a multidimensional scale displaying adequate reliability and validity. The scale may be useful for researchers and other professionals working in the university context.

    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.

    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.

    Academic Stress and Adaptation to University Life: Mediation of Cognitive-Emotional Regulation and Social Support
    (Universidad de Murcia Servicio de Publicaciones, 2023-01-01)
    University life involve personal, social, academic, and institutional challenges to which the students must adapt not only to achieve academic successbut also to guarantee a good physical and mental health during the career. This period can be influenced by stressful situations that can affect at personal and academic level. The objective of the present study was to determine, through an analysis with structural equations, whether various cognitive-emotional regulation strategies and perceived social support, act as mediators of the effect of stress on adaptation to university life in 555 Colombian university students (437 women, 78.7%) with ages from 16 to 49 years (M = 22.83; SD = 4.774). The results show that the cognitive-emotional regulation strategies positive (Focus and Reappraisal), negative (Rumination, Self-blame and Blaming others) and social support are mediators of the effect of stress on adaptation to university life.
