Suicidal ideation is a critical public health concern, particularly among adolescents, where various psychosocial factors may influence its prevalence. This study examines the relationship between religiosity, intrafamilial relationships, and suicidal ideation among high school students in Metropolitan Lima, Peru. Using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), we analyzed data collected from 339 students of one high school in Metropolitan Lima, Peru to determine how different dimensions of religiosity (subjective religiosity and religious practice) and intrafamilial relationships (positive perception and difficulties) predict positive and negative suicidal ideation. Results indicate that the perception of family unity and support significantly reduces negative suicidal ideation and enhances positive suicidal ideation, while difficulties in intrafamilial relationships...

This study was aimed at linguistically adapting the short version of McClosky's Academic Procrastination Scale (APS-S) and obtaining evidence of validity, reliability, and equity in university students from Lima. A total of 4,534 students participated, 2,052 women (45.3%) and 2,482 men (54.7%). The confirmatory factorial analysis of the scale reached an adequate fit to the hypothesized measurement model (CFI = .994, TLI = .988, RMSEA = .038, SRMR = .014). In addition, validity is evidenced with other variables, through correlations with academic self-efficacy (r=-.319; p<0.001) and academic performance (r= - .146; p < .001). Reliability was estimated with the ordinal alpha (αord = .867), and ordinal omega (ωord= .849) coefficients. Factor invariance analysis showed that the measure is equivalent between men and women (∆CFI < .010, ∆RMSEA < .015). It is concluded that th...

The Experiences in Close Relationships Questionnaire (ECR, Brennan et al., Attachment Theory and Close Relationships, 1998) is one of the most widely used measures of adult romantic attachment. Despite the advantages of the ECR, its length may discourage its use in clinical and research contexts. Consequently, the aim of this study was to conduct a psychometric analysis of the instrument validated by Guzmán-González et al. (2020), which constitutes a brief Spanish version of the ECR, and to examine its psychometric properties in the Peruvian LGBT+ population. A total of 551 participants from the LGBT+ community participated in the study. A confirmatory factor analysis revealed an initial two-factor structure (anxiety and avoidance) with the 12 proposed items, but the fit indices were unsatisfactory. Upon analyzing the standardized factor loadings, it was evident that item 11 (a reverse...
