{"title":"Therapeutic models in positive clinical interventions for reducing depressive symptoms in adults: a systematic review","authors":"Daniel Sánchez-Cisneros, Gabriela Rodríguez-Hernández, Carlos Saúl Juárez Lugo, Arturo Enrique Orozco Vargas, Virginia Flores-Pérez","doi":"10.24016/2024.v10.415","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.24016/2024.v10.415","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Depression is currently one of the most common mental disorders worldwide. Although there are valuable and effective psychotherapeutic models for its treatment, most focus on reducing symptoms and illness. In contrast, the Positive Psychology approach promotes well-being by developing and implementing strategies, called Positive Clinical Interventions (PCIs) that aim to enhance the development and satisfaction of individuals to promote health, quality of life, and excellence. Methods: This review aimed to synthesize the available evidence on the effectiveness of PCIs according to the type and therapeutic model implemented to increase well-being and reduce depressive symptoms in adults, as well as to identify their value and balance between innovation and effectiveness. We searched PubMed, PsycINFO and SCOPUS, followed the PRISMA guidelines and assessed the methodological quality of the studies. Our review has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024551678). Results: The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the Effective Public Health Practice Project (EPHPP), which allowed six studies out of 178 to be included in the systematic review. Second and third-generation treatment models were identified. All studies reported an improvement in depressive symptoms and an increase in well-being immediately after the intervention and up to six months later. Conclusions: According to the results, PCIs are effective, but studies with more rigorous protocols and methods are needed to avoid bias.","PeriodicalId":513773,"journal":{"name":"Interacciones","volume":"45 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141808588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been found that craving is one of the best predictors of relapse, so it is important to address it during addiction treatment. The Brief Intervention Program for Adolescents (PIBA) has been shown to be effective in reducing drug consumption patterns, increasing self-efficacy to deal with consumption situations, and reducing problems associated with consumption in adolescents who are in middle or high school schools, as well as in outpatient addiction care institutions. However, the effectiveness of this program has not been tested with adolescents in residential treatment or in reducing craving. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of PIBA in reducing craving and increasing self-efficacy in a female adolescent who was in a residential center. Method: A single-case design was applied, consisting of the treatment and a follow-up at four months, intentional and non-probabilistic, with a 16-year-old female adolescent. Result: A reduction in craving was found throughout the treatment and maintained during the follow-up, as well as an increase in self-efficacy. Conclusion: These findings extend the effectiveness of PIBA to addiction components and populations not previously explored, suggesting that PIBA may be an alternative to work with these components and populations.","PeriodicalId":513773,"journal":{"name":"Interacciones","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141129686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is appropriate to have relevant instruments to measure this construct. Objective: This study aims to analyze the evidence of validity and reliability of the Wong-Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS) in university students in the region of Lambayeque, Peru. Method: Our study has an instrumental design. We applied a virtual questionnaire distributed in social networks to 317 university students (124 males and 193 females) from different professional careers, aged between 18 and 30 years (M=20.3; SD=2.7). Confirmatory factor analysis was performed (WLSMV estimator), and internal consistency was assessed. Result: We found four correlated factors, higher order, and bifactor, the first being the one with the best-fit indices: X2(98) = 262.63, p < .001, CFI = .97, TLI = .96, RMSEA = .07 [CI 90%; .06 - .08], SRMR = .04 and WRMR = .91. Internal consistency results using the omega coefficient are ωSEA = .81, ωOEA= .79, ωUOE= .84 and ωROE = .85. Conclusion: The WLEIS in university students in the Lambayeque region of Peru has sufficient evidence of validity and reliability to guarantee the relevance of its application.","PeriodicalId":513773,"journal":{"name":"Interacciones","volume":"32 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140081400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
