Suicidal behavior is a complex and multifactorial phenomenon whose characterization, assessment, prevention, intervention, and postvention require a comprehensive approach focused on the meaning in a person's life and their suffering in their biographical, social and cultural context. It is an extraordinarily variable phenomenon over time and highly dependent on contextual elements.Method: This editorial includes the social determinants of this phenomenon, key aspects linked to the dehumanization of healthcare settings, the problems of iatrogenic harm in universal prevention programs for schoolchildren and adolescents, and good clinical practices collected in the scientific literature.Results: The editorial highlights the importance of research for the prevention of suicidal behavior from any intervention level, whether educational, community, social, or health, as all are involved in prevention.Conclusions: The goal is to help improve the biographical circumstances of people with suicidal behaviors and the meaningfulness of their lives. This must be done through a collective scaffolding in which the most vulnerable can ask for help when they need it, as well as guide themselves towards life circumstances worth living.","PeriodicalId":48179,"journal":{"name":"Psicothema","volume":"36 4","pages":"309-318"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142510553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) was calculated to obtain evidence of inter- and intracoder reliability. Parallel analysis was done using optimal implementation to study the dimensionality of the scale before conducting an exploratory factor analysis with a randomly-selected half of the sample, followed by a confirmatory factor analysis with the remaining half.Results: Both inter- and intra-coder reliability were adequate, ICC > .73. Parallel analysis suggested a lack of unidimensionality, UniCo = .41; ECV = .31.

However, its implications extend beyond consensual engagement, occasionally manifesting as a form of cyberviolence. Varied prevalence rates further complicate our understanding of the extent of youth sexting worldwide. Therefore, this study aims to provide a tool to measure sexting in young people from different countries by validating the Sexting Behaviours and Motives Questionnaire (SBM-Q), a comprehensive instrument that captures the diversity of consensual and non-consensual sexting behaviors and motives in different countries.Method: A total of 4739 students, aged 15 to 25, participated. They were from Spain (1563), Croatia (1598), and Bosnia and Herzegovina (1578). Confirmatory factor analyses and multigroup analyses were conducted.Results: The validity of the instrument was confirmed, endorsing its six-factor structure, which includes the dimensions of sending, reasons for sending, victimization by non-consensual forwarding, receiving, forwarding, and reasons for forwarding. Internal consistency across the three countries further underscores the robustness of the SBM-Q.Conclusions: This validated questionnaire provides a reliable measure for understanding sexting behaviors and motives in different countries.

They were assessed with several measures at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up.Results: CBT outperformed ACT among older subjects, men, and those with a shorter duration of panic disorder. ACT outperformed CBT among younger subjects, women, and those with a long duration of panic disorder. In general, the greatest improvements in both CBT and ACT were in older subjects, women, those with a long duration of panic disorder, those in the contemplation stage, and those with high experiential avoidance.Conclusions: Although future studies are necessary, there appear to be predictors and moderators of the effectiveness of CBT and ACT.

A 'control' procedure was also examined in which the presence of both determinants was ignored.Results: The findings reveal significant differences between the three control methods, with the ACQ control method and the combined method proving more effective. Moreover, when the residual variance shifts to the factor loadings, it appears to be captured by the ACQ correction method.Conclusions: The findings suggest using a mixed correction procedure in order to obtain less biased item parameter estimates when both sources of unwanted variance are operating.","PeriodicalId":48179,"journal":{"name":"Psicothema","volume":"37 1","pages":"11-20"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143014207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scores explained the dimensions of sexual functioning, especially sexual arousal and erection/lubrication. In addition, men and women without difficulties in sexual functioning demonstrated more propensity for sexual excitation and less sexual inhibition.

One widely-used mentalization questionnaire is the Mentalization Questionnaire (MZQ; Hausberg et al., 2012), which we aimed to adapt and validate for use in Spanish.Method: We adapted the MZQ to European Spanish and evaluated its psychometric properties in both adolescent (n = 389, ages 12-19, M = 14.5) and adult community samples (n = 382, M = 48).Results: Confirmatory factor analysis resulted in a unidimensional structure including all items. This model had better goodness of fit than the original and other adaptations. Invariance analysis showed the same structure in adolescents compared by sex and age, and additionally in the adult versus adolescent samples. Evidence for convergent and discriminant validity was found. Internal consistency values in both adolescents and parents were fair and in the adolescent sample the MZQ scores remained moderately stable after re-test.Conclusions: The Spanish adaptation of the MZQ presents similar evidence of reliability and validity in the adolescent and adult samples. The results support this being a suitable version for evaluating mentalization in the general population.","PeriodicalId":48179,"journal":{"name":"Psicothema","volume":"36 2","pages":"174-183"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140862747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The microbiota and gut-brain axis have been proposed as playing a mediating role in the regulation of stress and emotion.Method: Young male rats were exposed to maternal separation (MS) together with maternal and postnatal consumption of a HFS diet (45%kcal saturated fat, 17%kcal sucrose). Anxiety-like behaviour was evaluated using an elevated zero-maze, and depression-like behaviour using the forced-swim and sucrose preference tests. Microbiota composition and derived metabolites were also analysed in faecal samples using a gas chromatograph and mass spectrometry.Results: Combined exposure to MS and lifelong consumption of a HFS diet partially reversed the abnormal anxiety-like and depression-like behaviours in early adulthood caused by each adverse factor alone. Diet composition had a greater negative impact than ELS exposure on the gut microbiota, and both environmental factors interacted with microbiota composition partially counteracting their negative effects.Conclusions: The effects of exposure to early life stress and a HFS diet independently are partially reversed after the combination of both factors. These results suggest that ELS and diet interact to modulate adult stress response and gut microbiota.","PeriodicalId":48179,"journal":{"name":"Psicothema","volume":"36 2","pages":"133-144"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140853269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
