El objetivo principal fue conocer si el ASMR puede disminuir el estrés en estudiantes universitarios en comparación con otro tipo de estímulos auditivos. Para ello, se emplearon dos tipos de ASMR: uno con voz y uno sin voz, de forma similar a la de Poerio et al. (2018); adicionando un grupo control, sometido a música relajante. En ese sentido, se buscó comparar los puntajes de estrés después del estímulo de los grupos experimentales. También se realizó una comparación entre los niveles de estrés del momento previo y el posterior al estímulo para comprobar si existen diferencias significativas. El presente estudio tuvo un diseño intersujeto, participaron 46 estudiantes de universidades de Lima, de entre 18 y 25 años (M= 20.61; DE=2.61). De estos, 35 del sexo femenino y 11 del sexo masculino; provenían de Lima, Cusco y Chimbote. Se hicieron tres grupos aleatorios: ASMR cant...

This article explores Peru’s transition towards community mental health from 1980 to 2022. Using an approach from medical anthropology and related social sciences, we argue that the community mental health reform in Peru has been influenced and shaped by multiple sociohistorical and political processes such as the period of internal armed conflict, economic crises, and the adoption of neoliberal policies.

The analysis of the national mental health guidelines shows how sociohistorical processes influence mental health policies. The ethnographic work complicates citizens’ varying perceptions of the community m...

Se planteó el uso del diseño metodológico cualitativo, usando fuentes primarias. Asimismo, desde un marco epistemológico realista y a partir de un análisis temático; se entrevistaron a cinco bailarines. Todos eran varones, sus edades fluctuaron entre los 22 y 35 años, y se dedicaban a la danza de forma profesional. Se empleó una entrevista semiestructurada de modalidad virtual y estuvo compuesta por preguntas en torno a las conductas esperadas en los hombres y las características, que la sociedad peruana, le atribuyen a los profesionales de danza (Díaz et al., 2013). Esta guía de entrevista pasó por un proceso de validación, posterior a ello se modificaron los errores correspondientes.
