La investigación tuvo como propósito comparar la capacidad explicativa del Modelo de la Teoría del Comportamiento Planificado y el Modelo de Información-Motivación-Habilidades Conductuales respecto a la adherencia al tratamiento en adultos con hipertensión arterial y diabetes, de Trujillo. Se utilizó un diseño explicativo, transversal con variables manifiestas y una muestra no probabilística de 444 participantes. Se evaluaron las variables mediante instrumentos diseñados específicamente, validados en su contenido, estructura interna y consistencia interna. Los hallazgos revelaron que ambos modelos tuvieron ajustes estadísticos adecuados, pero con diferencias en su capacidad explicativa: el modelo de la Teoría del Comportamiento Planificado explicó el 15% de la variabilidad en adherencia, con efectos directos pequeños entre sus componentes; mientras que el modelo de Informa...

Adolescence is considered a critical period, it is at this stage where there is some vulnerability to different situations. Both family functionality and coping strategies have played an important role in healthy development, as well as being indicators of well-being, especially at this stage of the life cycle. Despite this, their relationship has not yet been elucidated. Based on this context, this study of cross-correlational and comparative design pursues the purpose of the relationship of family functioning and coping strategies in adolescents in the center of Huanchaco district. A sample of 441 adolescents between 11 and 18 years was evaluated. To obtain the information, you can consult the Scale of Cohesion and Family Adaptability FACES IV of Olson, Gorall and Tiesel, and the Coping Scale for Adolescents ACS, of Frydenberg and Lewis. We conclude the evidence of medium-sized relatio...

INTRODUCCIÓN. Ante la pandemia por COVID-19 surgieron una serie de medidas de restricción que contribuyeron a frenar los contagios, entre ellas, el cierre de lugares públicos. Con el fin de asegurar la continuidad educativa, se instauró la modalidad virtual; sin embargo, un gran número de docentes vieron sobrepasados sus recursos para lidiar con tales demandas, al no encontrarse preparados. Por ello, el objetivo del estudio fue comprobar un modelo explicativo del burnout a partir de los estresores laborales durante la pandemia en los docentes. MÉTODO. Se planteó un estudio aplicado con diseño explicativo de variables latentes, mediante ecuaciones estructurales (SEM). Los participantes fueron 504 profesores (Medad = 42.18; DE = 10.2) de educación básica regular de instituciones estatales (62.7%) y privadas (37.3%), de tres regiones peruanas, quienes respondieron a una ficha soci...

The interference between family and work roles has led to the development of scales for their measurement. However, instrumental studies of work–family conflict have not been conducted in the context of teacher teleworking during the COVID-19 pandemic. For this reason, the objectives of this study were set to obtain evidence of the internal structure and fairness of the Blanch and Aluja Work–Family Conflict Questionnaire, as well as its association with job satisfaction and other sociodemographic variables. A total of 235 Peruvian school teachers between the ages of 24 and 72 years (M = 43.79 and SD = 9.67) responded to the scale using the online form. The analysis employed the non-parametric item response theory modeling (Mokken scaling analysis). The structure of two correlated factors was confirmed: work conflict in the family (WCF) and family conflict in the work (FCW). Both dime...

Occupational self-efficacy has gained attention because of its importance in understanding the effects of psychosocial factors at work, but because of its relevance, it is necessary to study it in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Occupational Self-Efficacy Short Scale Form (OSS-SF) is a measure of individual variability in self-efficacy within the work context and has been used in some studies in Latin America. The aim of this study was to obtain evidence of the validity of the OSS-SF for 214 Peruvian teachers and to evaluate its internal structure and associations with other constructs. The sample, composed of 214 teachers (Mage = 44, SDage = 10), was selected using nonprobabilistic convenience sampling and evaluated via online forms. Nonparametric item response theory was used. Among the results, a unidimensional structure and high scalability at the item and scale levels were...

The teaching work was one of the most affected in terms of the changes suffered in their working conditions, during the Covid-19 pandemic. These effects have been even greater in Latin America, due to the shortcomings of developing countries. The objective of this study was to comparatively describe the experiences during remote work of Peruvian and Colombian teachers. The study was cross-sectional with a comparative design and it was developed in a non-probabilistic sample of 504 teachers (362 Peruvians and 142 Colombians). The scale of teaching stressors in times of pandemic, and a sociodemographic record, which were administered online, were used. The data were analyzed with Student's t-test and Hedges' G as a measure of effect. It was found that labor stressors do not differ according to sex; however, significant differences were identified in the stressors Work environment and workl...

Introduction: Hospitalization due to COVID-19 can predispose to the appearance of possible long-term psychological sequelae. Objective: To determine the relationship between hospital and non-hospital factors with post-traumatic stress in patients discharged for COVID-19 from a hospital in Peru. Methods: Cross-sectional study and correlational design. The non-probabilistic sample consisted of 126 participants, evaluated through a self-administered questionnaire and the Davidson Trauma Scale. For data processing, the chi-square test and Cramer's V were used as measures of the magnitude of effect. Results: Post-traumatic stress disorder presents moderate associations with hospital factors: hospitalization time (p<0.001) (Cramer's V = 0.33), clinical type of COVID-19 (p<0.001) (Cramer's V = 0 .49) and invasive ventilatory support (p<0.001) (Cramer's V = 0.39); and with non-hospital factors: ...

Caregivers of people with intellectual disabilities may feel overburdened in their work and experience negative psychological consequences. The purpose of this instrumental study was to determine the evidence of internal structure and reliability of the Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview scale. A total of 398 family caregivers, including women and men, participated (M = 47.33, SD = 10.44). The structure of the scale was evaluated by factor analysis and the McDonald Omega coefficient was used to estimate reliability. Sixteen models of the scale were tested, differing in number of items and factor structures. A model of 15 items and 4 dimensions (overload, competence, social relationship, and interpersonal relationship) obtained acceptable fit (χ2 = 184.72; p < 0.001; CFI = 0.95; TLI = 0.94; RMSEA = 0.055; SRMR = 0.05) and reliability coefficients above 0.70 in their dimensions.

Objective: the present study evaluated the factorial validity, measurement invariance, reliability and graded response model of the WAST in a sample of female victims and non-victims of intimate partner violence. Method: A total of 285 Peruvian women participated (59.6% were victims of intimate partner violence and 40.4% were not victims of intimate partner violence), with ages ranging from 18 to 64 years and an average age of 31.73 years for victims of intimate partner violence and 26.54 years for non-victims. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) suggested a twofactor model that was significantly adjusted for the group of female victims of IPV and non-victims of IPV. Results: The multigroup CFA supported factorial invariance according to female IPV and non-IPV victims of the WAST. Reliability was adequate and was calculated using the omega coefficient. Finally, the WAST items showed a...

Not wearing a face mask, despite the sanitary recommendation, represented a public health risk during the COVID-19 pandemic. For this reason, the aim of the study was to determine the mediating role of moral disengagement in the relationship between the dark triad and face mask wearing during the second wave of the pandemic. We worked with a sample made up of 534 adults, who were administered the Dirty Dozen Dark test, the Moral Disengagement Mechanisms Scale and a questionnaire on the frequency of use of face masks. The results showed that moral disengagement mediates the effect of each trait of the dark triad (Machiavellianism, psychopathy and narcissism) on the use of face masks. It is concluded that those who possess any of the dark personality traits morally disengage in order not to use a face mask, exercising a reckless behavior of the possible contagion of COVID-19 to others.
