“Although the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on children and adolescents’ mental health has been studied, there is still scarce evidence of the influence of nuclear family on the development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study aimed to determine the association between family dysfunction and PTSD in Peruvian high-school students during the COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional study was conducted using a virtual survey administered to 562 high-school students in three schools in Chiclayo, Peru. The dependent variable was PTSD, which was measured with the Child PTSD Symptom Scale. Family dysfunction was the main independent variable, measured with the Family APGAR Questionnaire. Prevalence ratios (PR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were estimated with generalized linear models. Most of the students were female (88.3%) and the average age was 14.4 years. We foun...

Esta es una investigación que habla de un tema que ha tomado auge en nuestra actualidad cuando comenzó la pandemia, puesto que el gobierno aplicó la cuarentena que nos obligó a suspender las actividades y entre ellas las clases. Ya a mediados de marzo, en los colegios tanto privados como públicos lo están implementando; las clases virtuales. Cada vez se habilitan más clases virtuales en el plan de estudio de cada curso, y esto si bien ha venido a facilitar el avance de los estudiantes en su educación, ayuda a acomodar nuestro tiempo con el de nuestras clases siendo una novedad para el nivel primario, pero también ha causado dificultades tanto para los docentes como para las familias. El propósito fundamental de este trabajo es implementar métodos de estudio más dinámico en las clases virtuales, para desarrollar este objetivo hemos realizado una investigación a ese campo que...

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected mental health, with children and adolescents being particularly vulnerable. Evidence on the association between childhood trauma and mental health outcomes in schoolchildren during the pandemic is limited. This study aimed to evaluate this relationship in Chiclayo city, northern Peru, during the second wave of COVID-19. Methods: A cross-sectional secondary data study was conducted, measuring childhood trauma using the Marshall’s Trauma Scale, depressive symptomatology (PHQ-9), and anxiety symptomatology (GAD-7). Additional variables assessed were alcohol use (AUDIT), resilience (abbreviated CD-RISC), and socio-educational data. Prevalence ratios were estimated using generalized linear models. Results: Among 456 participants, 88.2% were female, with a mean age of 14.5 years (SD: 1.33). Depressive symptomatology prevalence ...
