Adaptation to Aymara language and analysis of the psychometric properties of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) in Peruvian and Bolivian populations
To culturally adapt the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) for Aymara-speaking populations in Peru and Bolivia and to evaluate its psychometric properties. A study was conducted with a non-probabilistic sample of 1,607 Aymara speakers from Peru (n = 969) and Bolivia (n = 638), aged 18 to 74 years, with both sexes represented. In the first phase, forward and backward translations were carried out, followed by expert review to ensure cultural con…
Witnessing inter-parental violence in childhood and help-seeking behaviours in violence against women in Peru
Women who reported having witnessed home violence in their childhood are more likely to experience Violence Against Women (VAW) by their current partner. Physical and sexual violence with a current partner was more associated with witnessing inter-parental violence in childhood, and when physical and sexual violence jointly occurred women were more help-seeking. The southern region of Peru is identified as an area of high vulnerability for women.…
Adaptation of the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale (BSMAS) in Spanish
The impact of social networks on people's daily lives is worrisome, particularly in adolescents and young people, who seem to exceed the limits of normal use. Constant excessive use can lead to pathological behaviors linked to social media addiction (SMA). Our objectives were to 1) adapt the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale (BSMAS) to Spanish and 2) evaluate its psychometric properties in a young population. The BSMAS was adapted to Spanish, i…

The Earning and Spending Habits of Male Sex Workers in Lima, Peru
Over the past decade, data have identified male sex work as a potentially viable economic decision; despite this, male sex workers (MSWs) continue to be perceived as group with access to few assets and resources. Using data from a pilot skills-building intervention for MSWs in Lima, Peru, an analysis of the economic characteristics of 209 MSWs is presented. The majority reported livable incomes with median earnings of US$250 per month, 83% earnin…
Tobacco consumption and positive mental health
PMH was negatively associated with TC in rural participants only. Urbans exhibited just a similar trend, while migrants exhibited the opposite one. This evidence represents the first step in the route of knowing the potential of PMH for fighting against TC. For rural populations, this study supplies new information that could support decisions about prevention programmes and psychotherapy for smoking cessation. However, more research in the topic…
