Este estudio explora la correlación entre acoso escolar y autoestima en estudiantes de secundaria de una institución educativa pública del distrito de Nuevo Chimbote. El diseño fue descriptivo correlacional y la muestra estuvo conformado por 355 estudiantes entre hombres y mujeres del 1ero al 4to grado de educación secundaria. Como medida fueron evaluados por el cuestionario multimodal de interacción escolar (CMIE – IV) Caballo, Calderero, Arias, Salazar y Irurtia (2011) adaptado por Noé (2014), el inventario de autoestima de Coopersmith (1967) adaptado por Pérez (2015).Concluyendo que entre los factores del acoso escolar y la autoestima existe una relación negativa baja e inversa, y altamente significativa, esto indica la existencia de la fuerza entre las variables aunque mínima pero se determina una vinculación significativa, que a mayor acoso escolar menor será la autoes...

La presente investigación explora la relación entre el Engagement y Satisfacción Laboral en docentes del nivel secundario de las Instituciones Educativas pú- blicas del distrito de Nuevo Chimbote. El diseño de investigación fue descriptivo - correlacional y la muestra estuvo conformada por 350 docentes. Como medida fueron evaluados por la Escala Utrecht de Engagement en el trabajo (UWES-9) Schaufeli y Bakker (2003), y la Escala de Satisfacción Laboral (SLSPC) Palma (2006). Los resultados de la investigación refleja que existe correlación positiva moderada altamente significativa (rho=,5; **p<0.01) entre las dos variables. Esto muestra que el engagement y la satisfacción tienen una vinculación positiva, que un colaborador al estar entusiasmado e implicado en su trabajo y a la energía en el mismo, se va sentir satisfecho al realizar sus tareas laborales.

The objective of the present study is to determine the relationship between anxiety by Covid - 19 and mental health in 356 university students (227 women and 129 men, average age = 22.36 years, Standard Deviation = 2.46). It also has as specific objectives to compare the anxiety by Covid - 19 and mental health according to sociodemographic variables. To whom it was applied the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale in Spanish and the Mental Health Inventory-5 (MHI). The study confirms that there is a statistically significant correlation between anxiety by Covid – 19 and mental health (ρ = −.67, p <.01). Also, regarding the comparisons made statistically significant differences are evidenced according to the variables sociodemographic previously mentioned. The study confirms that the more anxiety by Covid - 19 the lower mental health in a sample of Peruvians university students.

RESUMEN El objetivo de la presente investigación fue determinar la relación entre ansiedad por Covid - 19 y salud mental en 356 estudiantes universitarios (227 mujeres y 129 hombres, Medad = 22.36 años, DE = 2.46). Asimismo, se comparó la ansiedad por Covid - 19 y salud mental entre algunas variables sociodemográficas. Se aplicó la versión en español de la Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS) y el Mental Health Inventory-5 (MHI). Los resultados muestran que una mayor ansiedad por COVID – 19 se relaciona con una disminución de la salud mental (ρ = −.67, p <.01). Asimismo, respecto a las comparaciones realizadas se evidencian diferencias estadísticamente significativas en función a las variables sociodemográficas previamente mencionadas. El estudio confirma que mayor ansiedad por COVID-19 se relaciona con un empeoramiento de la salud mental en una muestra de estudiantes univers...

ABSTRACT Objective To translate into Spanish and evaluate the evidence of content validity, construct validity and reliability of the Cancer Worry Chart as a single item measure of worry for cancer. Method The Spanish translation of the Cancer Worry Chart was done with the back-translation procedure. The participants were 165 healthy people with a family history of cancer who responded to the Cancer Worry Chart and the Cancer Worry Scale (CWS). Results Translation back-translation allows a Spanish version of the Cancer Worry Chart whose content is clear, coherent and relevant (V ˃ .70). Evidence of construct validity is reported based on 3 criteria: a) an adequate adjustment of the one-dimensional model formed by the Cancer Worry Chart and the items of the CWS performed with the structural equations method (χ2S-B = 23.38; df = 14; χ2S-B/df = 1.67; CFI = .988; RMSEA = .064); b) a signi...

ABSTRACT Objective: The cancer worry is associated with preventive behaviors for the detection of this disease; However, there is no instrument with evidence of validity and reliability to measure this construct in Latin American countries, including Peru. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the evidence of validity based on the internal structure and reliability of the Cancer Worry Scale (CWS) in a sample of people without cancer diagnosis with a family history of cancer. Method: It counted with the participation of 215 healthy people with a family history of cancer who attended the outpatient service of two public and private health institutions in the city of Chimbote with an average age of 42.10 years (SD = 14.05). For the collection of information, an ad hoc sociodemographic record and the Cancer Worry Scale were used. Results: The one-dimensional model presented a good fi...

Antecedentes y Objetivos: Es común utilizar medidas que no evalúan directamente el impacto de la ansiedad en la salud de las personas con VIH. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar las evidencias de validez y fiabilidad de la versión en español de la Health-Related Anxiety Scale (HRAS). Materiales y Métodos: Participaron 100 pacientes diagnosticados con VIH, seleccionados por un muestreo por conveniencia (76.5% hombres y 24.4% mujeres; Media de edad = 39.96 años, DE = 13.19). La estructura factorial de la HRAS se evaluó a partir del Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio (AFC). Asimismo, las relaciones a nivel latente de la HRAS con la satisfacción con la vida, ansiedad generalizada y depresión se evaluaron mediante un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. La fiabilidad se evaluó con el coeficiente omega de McDonald. Resultados: La estructura unidimensional de la HRAS ajustó adecuadame...

“The aim of the study was to translate and evaluate the psychometric evidence of the Spanish version of the COVID19 impact scale in the general population of Peru, to measure psychological stress responses produced by the COVID-19 pandemic, including emotional responses and difficulty in performing activities of daily living. Participants were 601 Peruvians, who responded to an online survey consisting of questions designed to collect sociodemographic data, the CIS and the fear of COVID-19 scale. The forward and backward translation method was used to translate the English version into Spanish. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), graded response model was used to estimate the discrimination (a) and difficulty (b) parameters of the items. Multi-group CFA was used to assess measurement invariance. Regarding validity based on the validity in relation to other variables, an explanatory m...

Introduction and objectives: COVID-19 has generated negative consequences for people's mental health. This is the case of Peru, one of the Latin American countries most affected by the pandemic. In this sense, the objective of the study was to translate and validate the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS) into Spanish. Material and method: The participants were 704 university students of health sciences (Mage = 23.39 years, SD = 3.45) who were administered the CAS in Spanish, the Mental Health Inventory-5 and the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 item. The CAS was translated into Spanish using the forward and backward method. Reliability and evidence of validity based on internal structure and relationship with other variables were examined. Results: The factor analysis confirmed the one-dimensional factor structure of the CAS (χ2 = 7.62, df = 5, p = .18, χ2 / gl = 1.52, CFI = .99, RMSEA = .0...

“Background: Fear is one of the basic emotions generated during periods of infectious diseases. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop and validate a scale that assesses monkeypox fear, the Monkeypox Fear Scale (MFS). Methods: A total of 451 Peruvians participated (61% women and 39% men), with a mean age of 28.31 years (SD=9.72). based on procedures from classical test theory (CTT) and item response theory (IRT). Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT) procedures were used. Results: The results showed that MFS has a two-factor structure related to emotional and physiological fear fac‑ tors (χ2=41.87; df=12; p<.001; CFI=.99; TLI=.99; RMSEA=.074 [IC90% .051–.100]). In addition, the physiological and emotional factors showed good reliability. Measurement invariance analysis showed that the factor structure of the MFS is strictly invariant between male and ...
