Autocuidado, afrontamiento e inteligencia emocional en estudiantes universitarios

College life, in and of itself, is stressful. If we add the impact of a global pandemic, with the consequent adaptations that it has entailed, we face a highlycritical moment in thelives of universitystudents. This article exploresself-care behaviors,coping strategies for academic stress, and emotional intelligence of students in health-related fields during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, it analyzes the factors that predict the frequency of engaging in self-care behaviors in this population. In this non-experimental cross-sectional quantitative study, 170 university students in Ecuador completed an anonymous online questionnaire between April and July 2020. The results indicate significant relationships between self-care, emotional intelligence, and academic stress coping methods. The participants presented average frequencies of self-care behaviors, coping with academic stress, and emotional intelligence. This article also identifies that emotional regulation predicts the practice of self-care and highlights the importance of having effective self-care and emotional intelligence strategies as they influence academic stress management.La vida universitaria, en sí misma, es considerada estresante. Si a ello le agregamos el impacto de una pandemia a nivel mundial, con las consiguientes adaptaciones que ello ha conllevado, nos encontramos ante un momento altamente crítico en la vida de los y las universitarias. Este artículo explora las conductas de autocuidado, el afrontamiento del estrés académico y la inteligencia emocional de estudiantes de carreras relacionadas con la salud durante la pandemia por COVID-19 en Ecuador. Además, analiza los factores que predicen la frecuencia de las conductas de autocuidado en esta población. La investigación consistió en un estudio cuantitativo transversal no experimental donde 170 estudiantes universitarios en Ecuador completaron un cuestionario anónimo en línea entre abril y julio 2020. Los hallazgos indican relaciones significativas entre autocuidado, inteligencia emocional y afrontamiento del estrés académico. Los resultados muestran niveles promedio de autocuidado, afrontamiento del estrés académico e inteligencia emocional. Este artículo identifica también que la regulación emocional predice la práctica del autocuidado. Las conclusiones nos llevan a potenciar las estrategias efectivas de autocuidado e inteligencia emocional en los y las futuras profesionales de lasalud, ya que estas influyen sobre el manejo del estrés

Predictors of attitudes toward lesbian and gay parenting in an ecuadorian sample.

In the past few years, Ecuador has experienced legal changes toward the recognition of sexual minority rights. However, lesbian and gay (LG) individuals and couples still face legal obstacles to become parents and social barriers that place their families in disadvantage compared to their heterosexual counterparts. To date, it is not known whether the legal changes reflect society’s move toward a more progressive and accepting climate. This study analyzed the attitudes toward LG parenting in an Ecuadorian online-recruited sample. Three hundred thirty-eight (338) participants answered an online questionnaire about the negative effects and the benefits of having LG parents. The strongest belief among participants was that children of LG parents would be victimized because of their parents’ sexual orientation. Analyses indicated differences in attitudes based on age, sexual orientation, marital status, education level, as well as religiosity. Finally, regression models suggested that beliefs about the origins of sexual orientation and contact with LG people predicted attitude scores. Implications of these findings are discussed.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

“This is not what God intended”: Attitudes toward adoption by same-sex couples in Ecuador

Introduction: In Ecuador, adoption is limited to heterosexual couples and information on attitudes toward same-sex couples who intend to become parents following this pathway is scarce. This study aimed to identify the beliefs of a sample of 319 cisgender people in Ecuador regarding the adoption of children by same-sex couples and explore the reasons why they consider it is appropriate or not for lesbian and gay (LG) couples to adopt children. Methods: Between May and October 2019, participants responded quantitative and qualitative questions after reading a vignette about a couple interested in adopting a child. Participants were randomly presented with one out of three versions of the vignette based on the couples’ sexual orientation (L,G, heterosexual). Descriptive, correlational statistics and analysis of variance were used to conduct quantitative analyses. Qualitative responses were analyzed using thematic and content analysis. Results: Results indicate favorability toward adoption by all couples in general. However, people showed the highest concerns about adoption by LG couples. Qualitative answers indicate the existence of nine types of arguments used by participants to explain their position in favor or against adoption by same-sex couples. Conclusion: Some are problematic since they are rooted in prejudiced ideas about heterosexual people’s superiority regarding their capacities to create emotionally nurturing environments. Policy Implications: Providing information regarding LG parenting might be a way of achieving legislative changes that might, in turn, promote social change by providing a legal platform for same-sex couples to achieve parenthood. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

La imagen y la narrativa como herramientas para el abordaje psicosocial en escenarios de violencia Departamento del Huila

El presente informe tiene como fin mostrar diversas experiencias de violencia que han afectado a muchos colombianos, pues se padece un conflicto armado que hoy por hoy sigue dejando victimas perjudicadas en el ámbito multidimensional. La pérdida de la identidad, el desarraigo, el estigma por suponer que se hace parte de un grupo guerrillero, el ser perseguidos y amenazados de muerte, son emergentes psicosociales que dan fruto a raíz de esta absurda guerra. En este trabajo, se exponen dos casos resultados del conflicto armado; el relato de Carlos Arturo Bravo y el de Peñas Coloradas. En el primer caso, se realiza un análisis de relatos y se formulan preguntas de carácter reflexivo, circular y estratégicas con base en la narrativa del protagonista. Para el segundo punto en mención, se crearon estrategias de acompañamiento psicosocial de reconstrucción de memoria y de perspectiva narrativa, que permiten dar re significación en cada persona que vivió dicha experiencia traumática, así mismo, que pueden tener un equilibrio emocional, recuperar su sentido de sí mismo y de seguridad en el territorio. En la parta final del documento, se exhibe un salón de exposiciones a cerca de la actividad realizada en el paso 3, “foto voz”, donde se podrá evidenciar un trabajo realizado por cada estudiante que muestra los múltiples tipos de violencia desde cada contexto y que reflejan subjetividades de sufrimiento, pero también de resiliencia y esperanza. Palabras clave: Narrativa, Memoria, Subjetividad, Acompañamiento Psicosocial, Violencia.This report aims to show various experiences of violence that have affected many Colombians since they are suffering from an armed conflict that today continues to leave victims harmed in the multidimensional sphere. The loss of identity, uprooting, the stigma for assuming that one is part of a guerrilla group, and being persecuted and threatened with death, are psychosocial emergents that bear fruit from this absurd war. This work exposes two cases resulting from the armed conflict; the story of Carlos Arturo Bravo and Peñas Coloradas. Based on the first case, the protagonist's narrative was analyzed, and reflective, circular, and strategic questions were formulated. On the other hand, psychosocial accompaniment, strategies for memory reconstruction, and narrative perspective were created in the second case mentioned. It allows resignification for each person who lived through said traumatic experience. Likewise, it helps them to have an emotional balance and recover their sense of themselves and security in the territory. In the final part of the document, the activity carried out in step 3, "photo voice," is exhibited. There will be possible to demonstrate a work carried out by each student that shows the multiple types of violence that reflect subjectivities of suffering but also of resilience and hope. Keywords: Narrative, Memory, Subjectivity, Psychosocial Accompaniment, Violence

NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the Neotropics

Xenarthrans – anteaters, sloths, and armadillos – have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with 24 domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos, ten anteaters, and six sloths. Our dataset includes the families Chlamyphoridae (13), Dasypodidae (7), Myrmecophagidae (3), Bradypodidae (4), and Megalonychidae (2). We have no occurrence data on Dasypus pilosus (Dasypodidae). Regarding Cyclopedidae, until recently, only one species was recognized, but new genetic studies have revealed that the group is represented by seven species. In this data-paper, we compiled a total of 42,528 records of 31 species, represented by occurrence and quantitative data, totaling 24,847 unique georeferenced records. The geographic range is from the south of the USA, Mexico, and Caribbean countries at the northern portion of the Neotropics, to its austral distribution in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. Regarding anteaters, Myrmecophaga tridactyla has the most records (n=5,941), and Cyclopes sp. has the fewest (n=240). The armadillo species with the most data is Dasypus novemcinctus (n=11,588), and the least recorded for Calyptophractus retusus (n=33). With regards to sloth species, Bradypus variegatus has the most records (n=962), and Bradypus pygmaeus has the fewest (n=12). Our main objective with Neotropical Xenarthrans is to make occurrence and quantitative data available to facilitate more ecological research, particularly if we integrate the xenarthran data with other datasets of Neotropical Series which will become available very soon (i.e. Neotropical Carnivores, Neotropical Invasive Mammals, and Neotropical Hunters and Dogs). Therefore, studies on trophic cascades, hunting pressure, habitat loss, fragmentation effects, species invasion, and climate change effects will be possible with the Neotropical Xenarthrans dataset
