Resiliencia en adolescentes con problemas de la conducta, con un enfoque de género en estudiantes del 10mo grado: Resilience in adolescents with behavioral problems
Resilience consists of a set of innate attributes or abilities to adequately cope with adverse situations, such as stressors and risky situations. In recent years, we discuss with interest the reaction capacity that some adolescents can develop when they are exposed to difficult situations or aggressions. Sometimes they manage to overcome resistance levels and end up with more protective energy than before exposure to adverse situations. The objective of the work is to offer a characterization of resilience in adolescents studying at the 10th grade level of basic education, influenced by behavior problems from a gender perspective, in public and private educational units of Portoviejo. This is based on a method that includes an extensive literature review aimed at the analysis of the resilience of adolescents of both sexes who face behavioral problems, through the application of a qualitative transversal research using the SV-RES scale created by doctors Eugenio Saavedra and Villalta Marcos, which offers the determinants of resilience in adolescents who study 10th grade in three institutions of the education system, namely the Cruz del Norte Private School, Manabí Technological Private School and Portoviejo Fiscal College. The work allows us to conclude that female adolescents are resilient than male adolescents, as well as the level of resilience shown by the surveyed students shows that they are in a position to reverse the behavioral problems they are facing.La resiliencia consiste en un conjunto de atributos o habilidades innatas para afrontar adecuadamente situaciones adversas, como son factores estresantes y situaciones riesgosas. En los últimos años se discute con interés sobre la capacidad de reacción que pueden desarrollar algunos adolescentes cuando están expuestos a situaciones difíciles o agresiones. Algunas veces logran sobrepasar niveles de resistencia y terminan con más energía protectora que antes de la exposición a las situaciones adversas. El objetivo del trabajo consiste en ofrecer una caracterización de la resiliencia en adolescentes que estudian en el nivel 10mo grado de educación básica, influenciados con problemas de conducta desde un enfoque de género, en unidades educativas públicas y privadas de Portoviejo. Para ello se parte de un método que incluye una amplia revisión bibliográfica direccionada al análisis de la resiliencia de adolescentes de ambos sexos que confrontan problemas de conducta, mediante la aplicación de una investigación cualitativa transversal utilizando la escala SV-RES creada por los doctores Eugenio Saavedra y Villalta Marcos, que ofrece los factores determinantes de la resiliencia en adolescentes que estudian el 10mo grado en tres instituciones del sistema de educación, a decir el Colegio Particular Cruz del Norte, Colegio Particular Tecnológico Manabí y Colegio Fiscal Portoviejo. El trabajo permite concluir que los adolescentes del sexo femenino son ligeramente más resilientes que los del sexo masculino, así como el nivel de resiliencia mostrado por los estudiantes encuestados demuestra que, se encuentran en condiciones de revertir los problemas de conducta que están confrontando
Resilience and Support Networks for University Students with Disabilities: A Correlational Study
Resilience is a phenomenon that can be studied in catastrophic situations but also in everyday matters such as disability, this being an alternative way of working in the environment that requires the adaptation of the social networks that contain and support people with this condition. The research was conducted at the Technical University of Manabí applied to the population of students with disabilities. The paper presents an analysis of support networks and their relationship with student resilience. The results related to the application of the Saavedra-Villalta test are shown, which allowed to correlate the level of resilience of the sample studied with the support networks. An analysis linked to the interpretation of the Pearson correlation coefficient is presented. The result obtained is presented by applying semi-structured interviews to a sample of 48 disabled students
Necessity of social worker in the educational system
Portoviejo is named the city of the Valley because it is irrigated by the river of the same name and surrounded by hills, where many people with low economic income and dysfunctional families live, many young people from these areas who are currently studying in the educational units of the city. The research made it possible to survey different teachers of the educational units of the municipality, resulting in the need to incorporate the social worker into the training environment, which allows a work climate to be consolidated and has a positive influence not only over time but in the depth of the intervention and its effectiveness, since the social worker is a fundamental pillar within the educational task and within the teaching-learning process
Autonomy, Good Humor and Support Networks, Potential of Community Resilience Intervention in People Victims of the Earthquake in the Calderón Parish
Resilience is a concept widely used in recent years, especially when it comes to evaluating the level of recovery of communities that are hit by natural phenomena. It can be stated that conceptually resilience constitutes the ability to react effectively and quickly to the effects of disasters, being a complex phenomenon to evaluate and define. And although the level of resilience does not necessarily imply greater control of vulnerability, it can be affirmed that the reduction of vulnerable conditions can strengthen and consolidate the resilient capacity of individuals and communities, in the face of the effects of natural disasters
