Item type:Publication, Family still matters: Human social motivation across 42 countries during a global pandemic(Elsevier Inc., 2022-11-01)The COVID-19 pandemic caused drastic social changes for many people, including separation from friends and coworkers, enforced close contact with family, and reductions in mobility. Here we assess the extent to which people's evolutionarily-relevant basic motivations and goals—fundamental social motives such as Affiliation and Kin Care—might have been affected. To address this question, we gathered data on fundamental social motives in 42 countries (N = 15,915) across two waves, including 19 countries (N = 10,907) for which data were gathered both before and during the pandemic (pre-pandemic wave: 32 countries, N = 8998; 3302 male, 5585 female; Mage = 24.43, SD = 7.91; mid-pandemic wave: 29 countries, N = 6917; 2249 male, 4218 female; Mage = 28.59, SD = 11.31). Samples include data collected online (e.g., Prolific, MTurk), at universities, and via community sampling. We found that Disease Avoidance motivation was substantially higher during the pandemic, and that most of the other fundamental social motives showed small, yet significant, differences across waves. Most sensibly, concern with caring for one's children was higher during the pandemic, and concerns with Mate Seeking and Status were lower. Earlier findings showing the prioritization of family motives over mating motives (and even over Disease Avoidance motives) were replicated during the pandemic. Finally, well-being remained positively associated with family-related motives and negatively associated with mating motives during the pandemic, as in the pre-pandemic samples. Our results provide further evidence for the robust primacy of family-related motivations even during this unique disruption of social life. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Work-family relationship in private company workers: A systematic review(Universidad Nacional de Cordoba - Facultad de Psicologia, 2024-12-01)The work-family relationship refers to the two-way interaction between an individual's paid work and family responsibilities. It involves how each role impacts the other, in positive aspects such as growth and negative aspects such as conflict. This interdependence between work and family has intensified given the growing demand in both areas, impacting the lives of workers. A systematic search of scientific literature was proposed to analyze the work-family relationship in workers in private companies. Following the PRISMA methodology, searches were carried out in WOS, SCOPUS and SCIELO databases. Nineteen investigations that analyzed the study topic were included. Differences were observed in work-family conflict at the gender level, generated by various stressors. The findings highlight the need for work environments that balance demands and promote support, allowing workers to positively perform their work and family roles. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Different Trajectories from a Common Crisis: Survival Migrations and Resilience of Venezuelan Adolescents to Peru(SAGE Publishing, 2023-11-07)This article examines the biography of adolescents who emigrated from Venezuela with family members due to economic hardship. It aims to highlight how a common crisis produces a variety of experiences, but that resilience is a central aspect of all life courses. It analyzes the stages of the adolescents’ migratory trajectory: their departure, journey, and settlement in Peru. The results show that the crisis homogenises the living conditions and produces a heterogeneity of migration experiences in which resilience is ever-present. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Reconfigurations of the transition to adulthood amongst first-generation students in contexts of crisis: the Peruvian experience(Taylor & Francis, 2025-01-01)This article examines how first-generation students (FGS) in Peru experience the transition to adulthood within the university context. Through a biographical approach based on 60 interviews with scholarship recipients across three regions of the country (Coast, Highlands and Amazon), the study analyses the particular configuration of life stages that emerges when the university experience unfolds in contexts of precarity. The findings reveal that, far from representing a period of social moratorium, university constitutes for FGS an 'intermediate age' characterised by constant tension between aspirations for autonomy and family responsibilities. The COVID-19 pandemic has made these tensions more visible and acute, evidencing both specific vulnerabilities and notable adaptive capacities. The analysis also shows how gender structures these experiences: while women face greater demands for family care, men experience more pressure to contribute economically. These findings invite us to rethink traditional conceptions of youth and adulthood, revealing how life transitions are reconfigured in contexts where the pursuit of social mobility through higher education coexists with persistent inequalities.2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Indirect Victims of Sexual Offence Investigations: Exploring the Impact of “The Knock” on Partners' Mental Health and Wellbeing(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2026-05-01)“The knock” refers to the moment when the police first arrive at a house to investigate suspected sexual offending by a member of that family. This paper examines the levels of trauma, wellbeing and crisis support for partners, both at the time of the knock and at the current time. Forty-eight participants who had experienced the knock completed an online survey. All respondents were female; they had experienced the knock 0–20 years previously (M = 3.88 years). Participants provided demographics and completed the World Health Organisation (WHO) Wellbeing Index, the International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ) and the Crisis Support Scale (CSS) for (i) retrospective (at the time of the knock) and (ii) current levels of social support. Participants reported lower levels of wellbeing and higher levels of trauma in comparison with general population norms. Approximately 40% of participants' scores on the ITQ exceeded the criterion for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), with a further 25% of participants meeting the criterion for Complex PTSD. Levels of trauma were negatively correlated with wellbeing and with both retrospective and current self-reported crisis support. Qualitative analysis of open-ended questions explored participants' experiences of the knock, their perceptions of police conduct, and the personal, relational, and practical consequences that followed. The findings highlight substantial and enduring harm among partners and are discussed in relation to implications for current policy and practice.1
