Item RELIGIOSIDAD Y EXPLORACIÓN DE LA IDENTIDAD SEXUAL EN ADOLESCENTES(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Zambrano Valencia, Lizeth Samantha; Sánchez Acosta, Adriana CarolinaIntroduction: Religiosity is a social entity that encompasses theology, a set of normative traditions, rituals, attitudes, values, or practices linked to a transcendent power. on the other hand, sexual identity is a multidimensional construct composed of gender identity, with sexual behaviors being an observable expression of an individual's sexuality. Objective: To determine the relationship between religiosity and exploration of sexual identity in adolescents. Methods: The study consisted of 130 adolescents aged 14 to 18 from the Pelileo, Tungurahua province, Ecuador. This sample was taken using non-probabilistic convenience sampling, with participants voluntarily agreeing to respond to the Sexual Identity Exploration Questionnaire and the Durel Scale to measure religiosity. This was done through a quantitative research approach, nonexperimental design, descriptive level with correlational scope, and cross-sectional design. Results: The results obtained in the selected population showed a mild positive correlation between religiosity and one dimension of sexual identity, which was gender identity. Conclusions: It was found that adolescents have a moderate level of religiosity, influenced by the environment and context of the population. Additionally, the calculation of the mean score in the dimensions of sexual identity, as well as the comparison of identity in males and females, did not yield statistically significant differences.Item RESILIENCIA Y RIESGO SUICIDA: UN ESTUDIO COMPARATIVO ENTRE VOLUNTARIOS Y NO VOLUNTARIOS(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Velasco Macias, Ivon Nicol; Vargas Espín, Alba Del PilarThis study aims to compare resilience and suicide risk among volunteers and non-volunteers, in response to the growing increase of suicides in the world and in the Ecuadorian context. A quantitative análisis methodology was applied, descriptive in scope and with a cross-sectional design. In addition, data were collected from 288 volunteers from a non-governmental organization and 701 young people who did not volunteer, using Plutchick's Suicide Risk Scale and Wagnild and Young's Resilience Scale. The results indicated significant differences in resilience between volunteers and non-volunteers (p<.001), showing greater resilience in the first group; however, no significant differences were observed in suicidal risk (p = 0941). This would suggest that volunteering could enhance resilience in those individuals who do not participate in volunteer activities, which has important implications for the design of interventions aimed at strengthening resilience in various social settings.Item PATRONES DE COMUNICACIÓN Y EXPERIENCIA DE PAREJA EN JÓVENES UNIVERSITARIOS(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Veintimilla Ávila, Kevin Xavier; Valencia Cepeda, María CristinaThe purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between communication patterns and couple experiences in young university students, highlighting the prevalence of mutual constructive communication and its positive association with these experiences. Aggressive communication was found to be associated with moderate levels of attachment anxiety and avoidance, indicating difficulties in establishing satisfying relationships. The sample consisted of 116 young university students. Two Likert-type scales were used: the communication patterns scale, adapted to Spanish by Montes (2009), and the scale of experiences in close relationships-revised, adapted for the Ecuadorian population by Díaz et al. (2022). Data were analyzed using Spearman's correlation test through the statistical program Jamovi version 2.3.28. The results revealed a significant positive correlation between aggressive communication and anxiety (r = 0.32, p < 0.001) and avoidance (r = 0.21, p < 0.05). No significant gender differences were found in the dimensions of anxiety and avoidance, suggesting a convergence in the relational experience between young university men and women.Item MOTIVACIÓN ACADÉMICA Y RESILIENCIA EN ESTUDIANTES UNIVERSITARIOS(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Toapanta Yancha, Shirley Geomara; Lara Salazar, Cristina MarielaAcademic motivation and resilience are key elements in the academic field. This study investigated the relationship between these two variables in university students, using a sample of 200 participants aged 18 to 25. It has a quantitative-non-experim ental design with a cross-sectional and correlational scope. The Academic Motivation Scale (EMA) and the Resilience Scale (ER) were used. The results, through Spearman's correlation, showed a mild negative correlation between resilience and amotivation (Rho = 0.221, p > 0.05), and mild to moderate positive correlations between resilience and various dimensions of extrinsic motivation regarding external regulation, introjected and identified regulation, and intrinsic motivation regarding achievement, knowledge, and stimulating experiences, with Rho values ranging from 0.514 to 0.677, suggesting that there is significant statistical evidence (p < 0.001). Based on these results, it was concluded that academic motivation is related to resilience as it drives students to overcome difficulties and achieve good academ ic performance, even in unfavorable environments.Item HOSTILIDAD Y DEPENDENCIA A VIDEOJUEGOS EN ADOLESCENTES(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Tixi Lucio, Nicol Dayana; García Ramos, Diana CarolinaThe hostility is defined as an emotional state that ranges in intensity from mild irritation to rage or anger, while video game dependence is a non-chemical addiction that derives in a potentially addictive behavior. The principal objective of this study was to analyze the correlation between the variables hostility and videogame dependence in adolescents. The design of this study was quantitative non-experimental, whit a descriptive-correlational approach. The sample included 90 young people between 12 and 16 years of age belonging to a private educational unit in the city of Ambato. To measur e the study variables, were applied the Buss-Durke Hostility Aggressiveness Inventor y adapted by Carlos Reyes Romero in 1987 and the Video Game Dependence Test adapte d by Salas, Merino, Choliz and Marco in 201. The results revealed that there is a slight positive relationship between the hostility and video game dependence, whit a higher prevalence of hostility at a high level and moderate level of video game dependence. In addition, significant differences were found in the video game dependence of adolesce nt s of different ages.Item PROPIEDADES PSICOMÉTRICAS DEL INSTRUMENTO NEUROPSICOLÓGICO INECO FRONTAL SCREENING (IFS) EN POBLACIÓN CON DISCAPACIDAD(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Tipán Llumiguano, Anahi Ibeth; Flores Hernández, Verónica FernandaThe study population with disability characteristics showed physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairment, which has triggered environmental and social barriers . These people show limitations to their cognitive capabilities, specifically the execut i v e functions themselves, which are key to addressing challenges and goals, by integrat i n g elements such as inhibition, working memory, cognitional flexibility and planning that will improve the quality of life of this population group. The INECO instrument was applied to 90 adults institutionalized in inclusive centres of Tungurahua – Ecuador, using the instrument evaluated their structure, reliability and comparison of scores by sex, showing high internal consistency (coeficiente alfa de Cronbach de 0.834). The results indicated that the IFS has a single "executive functions" factor, explaining 46.3% of the variance, with each item showing a significant load on this factor, confirming its uniqueness. In summary, IFS is a reliable and useful tool for evaluating executi v e functions in persons with disabilities, highlighting its focus on the executive performa n c e factor and its strong internal consistency.Item INTERVENCIONES PSICOLÓGICAS POSITIVAS PARA LA PREVENCIÓN DEL RIESGO SUICIDA: UNA REVISIÓN SISTEMÁTICA(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Navarrete Aime, Andrea Margarita; Gaibor Gonzalez, Ismael AlvaroSuicide represents a m ental health problem that has been addressed in different ways over time, being important those that focus on strengthening protective factors. In this context, the present systematic review aimed to determine the effectiveness of positive psychological interventions for the prevention of suicidal risk. For this purpose, a literature search was carried out in databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Web of science, Scielo and Dialnet, following the methodological guidelines of PRISMA. Inclusion criteria included; studies since 2017, empirical research, clinical trials or randomized controlled trials, as well as articles written in English or Spanish that included pre-and postintervention measures. Papers that were systematic reviews, meta -analyses or cross-sectional studies were excluded. Eight relevant studies were obtained from the analysis, which revealed that positive psychological interventions were able to reduce suicidal risk; this finding underscores the im portance of continuing to address and deepen this issue.Item ADICCIÓN A LOS VIDEOJUEGOS Y LA AUTOESTIMA EN LOS ADOLESCENTES(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Tapia Bautista, Adrian Alexander; Mena Freire, Marco AntonioVideo game addiction in adolescents manifests itself as a strong dependence and obsession to play. On the other hand, self-esteem refers to how a person values him/herself and feels capable of facing life's challenges. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between these two variables. The study sample consisted of 103 participants, ranging in age from 14 to 16 years. This work has a quantitative-no n - experimental approach with a cross-sectional design and correlational scope. For data collection, the GASA-Short test version adapted to Spanish by Llorel et al., (2017) and a Rosenberg self-esteem scale (RSE) originally developed by Morris Rosenberg (1965) were used. The data were analyzed using Spearman's correlation test using the statisti c a l program Jamovi version 2.3.28. The results showed that there is no relationship betwee n self-esteem and video game addiction (Rho= 0.019 p>0.05) suggesting that both adolescents with high self-esteem and those with low self-esteem may develop video game addiction in similar proportions.Item ESTILOS DE APEGO Y FUNCIONAMIENTO FAMILIAR EN ADOLESCENTES(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Rovalino Peñafiel, Lizbeth Estefanía; Rodríguez Pérez, Mayra LucíaAttachment styles are relatively long-lasting emotional bonds between an individual and one or more people who are emotionally important to him or her. Family functioning, on the other hand, refers to how problems are resolved within the family environment without compromising the satisfaction of the needs of its members. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between attachment styles and family functioning in adolescents. The research had a quantitative, correlational and cross-sectional approach, with a sample made up of 90 adolescents (56.6% men; 43.4% women), aged between 16 and 17 years. To measure the variables, the Internalized Relationship Models Attachment Questionnaire in its reduced version CAMIR-R and the Family Functioning Perception Questionnaire (FF-SIL) were used. The results indicated that the secure attachment style predominated (97%), the moderately functional level prevailed (56%), in addition, no significant differences were found in attachment according to sex. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between secure attachment and family functioning and a negative correlation between avoidant attachment and family functioning.Item APOYO SOCIAL PERCIBIDO Y ESTRÉS ACADÉMICO EN ESTUDIANTES UNIVERSITARIOS(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología Clínica, 2024-09-09) Rocha Toapanta, Gladys Lisset; Gavilanes Manzano, Fanny RocíoPerceived social support is about the perception that the subject has about the support they receive from their social network, while academic stress is conceptualized as a series of processes of systemic origin, whether adaptive and psychological. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between perceived social support and academic stress in university students . The sample was made up of 140 students with an age range between 18 and 32 years old from the Faculty of Systems, Electronics and Industrial Engineering of a University in Ambato. The research had a quantitative approach, nonexperimental design, with cross-sectional and descriptive -correlational scope. To measure these variables, the MOS social support questionnaire developed by Sherbourne and Stewart (1991) and the SISCO academic stress inventory SV - 21 created by Arturo Barraza in 2018 were used. The results showed that there is no correlation between the dimensions of social support. perceived and academic stress, likewise, no significant differences were found between academic stress levels and gender. In conclusion, the lack of relationship between these two variables may be due to multifactorial causes, so that perceived social support did not perform its buffering function against stress.
