Satisfacción Vital en Adolescentes de Ecuador durante la COVID-19

La COVID-19 y las medidas de restricción empleadas para controlarlo provocaron un impacto negativo en la salud mental de los adolescentes. La gran mayoría de estudios se han centrado en el malestar emocional derivados de la pandemia, sin embargo, son pocos los trabajos que han explorado variables de bienestar psicológico y el papel que éstas cumplieron a la hora de enfrentar las consecuencias de la crisis sanitaria en esta población. Es así que, el objetivo general del presente trabajo ha sido analizar las principales características de ajuste emocional a la COVID-19, junto con los predictores se la satisfacción vital, en los adolescentes ecuatorianos durante el confinamiento. Participaron 902 adolescentes entre 12 y 17 años (M= 15,30; DT= 1,28). El porcentaje de chicas encuestadas fue del 79,9%, mientras que en el caso de los chicos fue del 19,8% y el de no binarios del 0,2%. El diseño de este estudio es de corte transversal y la evaluación se llevó a cabo en julio de 2020. Las variables analizadas fueron satisfacción vital, resiliencia, malestar emocional y preocupaciones por la COVID-19. Los principales resultados obtenidos evidenciaron que el 70% de los adolescentes presentaron niveles adecuados de satisfacción con la vida, los niveles elevados de esta variable se explicaron por la interacción de alta resiliencia, bajos niveles de depresión, ansiedad y estrés, preocupaciones psicosociales y económicas y puntajes altos de preocupaciones por la salud. Finalmente, se encontró que la resiliencia cumplía un rol mediador del impacto de la depresión sobre la satisfacción con la vida. Los resultados del presente trabajo, destacan el importante papel que cumplen variables de ajuste a la hora de enfrentar situaciones adversas en los adolescentes, es importante, por tanto, fortalecer estas dimensiones psicológicas.COVID-19 and the restriction measures used to control it negatively impacted adolescents' mental health. The vast majority of studies have focused on the emotional discomfort derived from the pandemic; however, few studies have explored psychological well-being variables and the role they played when facing the consequences of the health crisis in this population. Thus, the general objective of this work has been to analyze the main characteristics of emotional adjustment to COVID-19, together with the predictors of life satisfaction, in Ecuadorian adolescents during confinement. A total of 902 adolescents between 12 and 17 years old (M= 15.30; SD= 1.28) participated. Of these participants, 79.9% were girls, 19% were boys, and 0,2% were non-binary. The design of this study is cross-sectional, and the evaluation was carried out in July 2020. The variables analyzed were life satisfaction, resilience, emotional discomfort, and concerns about COVID-19. The main results showed that 70% of adolescents presented adequate levels of satisfaction with life; the high levels of this variable were explained by the interaction of high resilience, low levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, psychosocial and economic concerns, and high scores for health concerns. Finally, resilience was found to play a mediating role in the impact of depression on life satisfaction. The results of this study highlight the important role played by adjustment variables when facing adverse situations in adolescents; therefore, it is fundamental to strengthen these psychological dimensions

Impacto emocional y resiliencia enadolescentes de España y Ecuador durante la COVID-19: estudio transcultural

La pandemia de la COVID-19 está impactando en la salud emocional de los adolescentes. Factores como la resiliencia pueden amortiguar este importante impacto sobre su bienestar. Nuestro objetivo fue estudiar la asociación entre la sintomatología ansioso-depresiva y la resiliencia en adolescentes de España y Ecuador, y comparar las diferencias existentes entre ambas muestras. Participaron 476 adolescentes (70,10 % mujeres) entre 9 y 18 años (M = 15,62; DT = 1,22), distribuidos por igual entre ambos países. Se evaluaron mediante la Escala de Depresión, Ansiedad y Estrés y la Escala de Resiliencia. Realizamos análisis descriptivos, pruebas t para muestras independientes, cálculo del tamaño del efecto y correlaciones de Pearson. Los resultados evidenciaron que el perfil de ajuste adaptativo ante la pandemia fue: ser chico, no haber presentado un evento vital estresante, no tener problemas de salud física ni psicológica previos y residir en España. Mientras que el perfil de riesgo ante la pandemia fue: ser chica, presentar un evento vital estresante, tener algún tipo de problema de salud física y psicológica previo y residir en Ecuador. Nuestros datos señalan la importancia de detectar las necesidades específicas de los adolescentes en función de su contexto socioeconómico y cultural, para poder poner en marcha intervenciones destinadas a proteger su salud mental durante la pandemi

Emotional impact and resilience in adolescents in Spain and Ecuador during COVID-19: A cross-cultural study. The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the emotional health of adolescents. Factors such as resilience can buffer this important impact on their well-being. Our aim was to study the association between anxious-depressive symptomatology and resilience in adolescents from Spain and Mexico, and to compare the differences between the two samples. A total of 476 adolescents (70.10 % female) aged 9-18 years (M = 15.62; SD = 1.22), equally distributed between the two countries, participated in the study. They were assessed using the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale and the Resilience Scale. We conducted descriptive analyses, independent samples t-tests, effect size calculation and Pearson correlations. The results showed that the profile of adaptive adjustment to the pandemic was: being a male, not having experienced a stressful life event, not having previous physical or psychological health problems and residing in Spain. While the risk profile for the pandemic was: being a female, having a stressful life event, having some type of previous physical and psychological health problem, and residing in Ecuador. Our data point to the importance of detecting the specific needs of adolescents according to their socio-economic and cultural context in order to implement interventions to protect their mental health during the pandemic

Atlas de las praderas marinas de España

Knowledge of the distribution and extent of seagrass habitats is currently the basis of management and conservation policies of the coastal zones in most European countries. This basic information is being requested through European directives for the establishment of monitoring programmes and the implementation of specific actions to preserve the marine environment. In addition, this information is crucial for the quantification of the ecological importance usually attributed to seagrass habitats due to, for instance, their involvement in biogeochemical cycles, marine biodiversity and quality of coastal waters or global carbon budgets. The seagrass atlas of Spain represents a huge collective effort performed by 84 authors across 30 Spanish institutions largely involved in the scientific research, management and conservation of seagrass habitats during the last three decades. They have contributed to the availability of the most precise and realistic seagrass maps for each region of the Spanish coast which have been integrated in a GIS to obtain the distribution and area of each seagrass species. Most of this information has independently originated at a regional level by regional governments, universities and public research organisations, which explain the elevated heterogeneity in criteria, scales, methods and objectives of the available information. On this basis, seagrass habitats in Spain occupy a total surface of 1,541,63 km2, 89% of which is concentrated in the Mediterranean regions; the rest is present in sheltered estuarine areas of the Atlantic peninsular regions and in the open coastal waters of the Canary Islands, which represents 50% of the Atlantic meadows. Of this surface, 71.5% corresponds to Posidonia oceanica, 19.5% to Cymodocea nodosa, 3.1% to Zostera noltii (=Nanozostera noltii), 0.3% to Zostera marina and 1.2% to Halophila decipiens. Species distribution maps are presented (including Ruppia spp.), together with maps of the main impacts and pressures that has affected or threatened their conservation status, as well as the management tools established for their protection and conservation. Despite this considerable effort, and the fact that Spain has mapped wide shelf areas, the information available is still incomplete and with weak precision in many regions, which will require an investment of major effort in the near future to complete the whole picture and respond to demands of EU directives
