Universitas Psychologica. Num.14-1, 355-366

Este estudio aborda la socialización en valores y convivencia a partir de una investigación acción que parte de un enfoque participativo y dialéctico y que utiliza el Debate Familiar, una herramienta innovadora cuyas finalidades son favorecer la reflexión y el diálogo intrafamiliar e implicar a las familias en el análisis y transformación de su realidad. Esta estrategia estimula el debate e invita a pensar sobre los valores presentes en la familia, recoge información de los diferentes miembros de la unidad familiar y a su vez, sensibiliza sobre los temas tratados. Un total de 492 familias, con al menos un hijo o hija entre 7 y 16 años, participaron en este estudio. Los resultados ponen de...

Un total de 492 familias, con al menos un hijo o hija entre 7 y 16 años, participaron en este estudio. Los resultados ponen de relieve la potencialidad del instrumento como recurso facilitador de la identificación de problemáticas reales o potenciales y elementos y dinámicas positivas; y su utilidad para implicar a la familia y a la comunidad en su análisis y la formulación de líneas de acción para su transformación. Asimismo, los resultados permiten la formulación de líneas de acción comunitarias que favorecen la construcción de una convivencia positiva.

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology. Num.56, 273–282

Emerging adulthood is a transitional period which has been examined in relatively few studies in Southern European countries. This study has two aims: (1) to determine the features of emerging adulthood in Spain based on criteria for adulthood and experiential dimensions; and (2) to explore whether variations in these criteria are related to gender and adult status (self-classification as an adult and adult role adoption). Participants included 347 young Spanish people, aged 18–30, who completed a questionnaire about their conceptions of adulthood. They used similar criteria for adulthood to other Western countries, placing an extremely strong emphasis on psychological maturity criteria in...

Participants included 347 young Spanish people, aged 18–30, who completed a questionnaire about their conceptions of adulthood. They used similar criteria for adulthood to other Western countries, placing an extremely strong emphasis on psychological maturity criteria in comparison with role transition indicators. Important variations were observed in both the importance and achievement of criteria for adulthood according to gender and adult status. The results likewise suggest there may be different psychosocial profiles associated with each adult status group. The relevance of this classification to future research in the field of emerging adulthood is discussed.

This study aimed to determine the effects of two types of coping strategies on wellbeing in a sample of 405 young people using structural equation modeling. A survey research design was employed. Two constructs were measured: coping strategies and well-being. Goodness of fit indices was analyzed to select, the best structural equation model of coping as a potential predictor of well-being, as measured by Ryff’s well-being scales. Problem-focused coping positively predicted a significant portion of variance in well-being, while emotion-focused coping negatively predicted well-being. Religion as a coping strategy did not end up in the final model. The results’ impact within the literature on...

Problem-focused coping positively predicted a significant portion of variance in well-being, while emotion-focused coping negatively predicted well-being. Religion as a coping strategy did not end up in the final model. The results’ impact within the literature on youth well-being is discussed. It was concluded that young people do not typically use religion or magical thinking as coping strategies, and the use of negative auto-focused coping was associated with lower problem-focused coping.
