The Virtual Health Sciences Library of the Balearic Islands: A regional project for libraries cooperation.
Virtual Health Sciences Library of the Balearic Islands (Bibliosalut) is a regional project carried out in collaboration with the Regional Ministry of Health and Consumer Protection and the Health Service of the Balearic Islands (Ib-salut), through the Balearic Islands Biomedical Documentation Service. The Virtual Library Mission is to facilitate the most important scientific information to the public health professionals of the Balearic Islands, by using the new information and communication technologies, in order to contribute to the improvement of medical care quality, teaching, research and health managemen
Estrategias en la regulación emocional en la comorbilidad entre el trastorno límite de la personalidad y los trastornos alimentarios
Introducción: La regulación emocional puede definirse como un proceso dirigido a influenciar
la intensidad, duración y tipo de emociones experimentadas. Las dificultades
en regulación emocional suponen una dimensión psicopatológica que aparece en distintos
trastornos, siendo el trastorno límite de la personalidad (TLP ) uno de los paradigmas
de la desregulación emocional persistente. Las conductas límite (autolesiones, consumo de
sustancias, conductas alimentarias patológicas, etc.) se pueden conceptualizar como
intentos desadaptativos de regular el afecto intenso. Estas conductas límite llegan a
convertirse en trastornos en sí mismos, como es el caso de los trastornos alimentarios.
Las características de la anorexia nerviosa (AN) hacen pensar en estrategias relacionadas
con la evitación y supresión emocional, y las características de la bulimia nerviosa
(BN) hacen pensar en estrategias más relacionadas con la falta de control y la impulsividad.
Desde el modelo de regulación emocional de Gross (1998) se proponen dos estrategias
de regulación emocional, la reevaluación y la supresión. Desde esta perspectiva,
hipotetizamos que las personas con comorbilidad TLP y AN utilizarán con más frecuencia
la estrategia de la supresión que las pacientes con TLP y BN. Método: 42 mujeres diagnosticadas
de TLP (18 con AN y 24 con BN) rellenaron el cuestionario de regulación emocional
(ERG, Gross y John, 2003). Se llevaron a cabo pruebas t para determinar las diferencias
en reevaluación y supresión entre TLP +AN y TLP +BN. Resultados: No se encontraron
diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre TLP +AN y TLP +BN en la escala de reevaluación.
Sin embargo, las pacientes TLP +AN presentaban una puntuación significativamente
mayor que las pacientes con TLP +BN en supresión. Conclusiones: Estos resultados
podrían indicar que las conductas anoréxicas en el marco del TLP responden a
estrategias de regulación emocional relacionadas con la supresión. Este hallazgo podría
ayudar a diseñar estrategias terapéuticas más personalizadas que se dirigieran al tratamiento
de la supresión emocional.Introduction: Emotion regulation may be defined as a process directed to influence the
intensity, duration and type of emotion experienced. Emotion dysregulation is a psychopathological
dimension common to several disorders, being borderline personality disorder
(BPD) the paradigm of pervasive emotion dysregulation. Borderline behaviors
(self-harm, substance abuse, pathologic eating behaviors, etc.) can be conceptualized
as maladaptive attempts of regulating intense emotions. These borderline behaviors
become disorders like eating disorders. The features of anorexia nervosa (AN) seem
more related to emotion avoidance and suppression, and the features of bulimia nervosa
(BN) seem more related to lack of control and impulsivity. From the emotion regulation
model developed by Gross (1998), two emotion regulation strategies are proposed:
reappraisal and suppression. From this perspective our hypothesis is that
individuals with BPD+AN comorbidity will use more the suppression strategy than individuals
with BPD+BN comorbidity. Method: Forty two women with a BPD disgnosis (18
with AN and 24 with BN) filled out the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERG, Gross y
John, 2003). Student t test were carried out in order to determine differences in emotion
regulation strategies between BPD+AN and BPD+BN. Results: There were no significant
differences between BPD+AN and BPD+BN in reappraisal. However, BPD+AN patients scored
significantly higher in suppression tan BPD+BN. Conclusions: These results could indicate
that an behaviors in the context of BPD could be maladaptive emotion regulation strategies
related to emotion suppression. This finding could help to design more personalized
therapeutic strategies addressed to the treatment of emotion suppression
Wealth and asset price effects on economic activity
Do asset prices affect real activity? This question has taken on a new importance in recent years, as asset values first surged at the end of 1990s and, thereafter, dramatically retreated. This report reviews the available theoretical and empirical evidence regarding asset price and wealth effects in Europe and some other major economies. The main focus of this report is on consumption effects via the wealth channel, reflecting the bulk of literature on the effects of asset prices. However, asset price effects on investment via the Tobin’s-Q channel, balance sheet and confidence channels are also reviewed. The available evidence supports the view that the wealth channel is the most important of various channels. There is little empirical evidence indicating that the Tobin’s-Q, balance-sheet and confidence channels play any major independent role in the transmission of asset price effects to economic activity.household wealth, wealth channel, asset price, marginal propensity to consume, cost of capital.
