The role of active methodologies in the socio-emotional development of children at risk
The objective of this study is to analyse the role of active methodologies in primary school children ́s socio-emotional needs. A case study was carried out involving 144 children aged between 7 and 8 years, alongside 19 teachers and members of the school leadership teams, which were selected from three schools with a high degree of social segregation. A qualitative methodology through semi-structured interviews, focus groups and observations was…
The mediating role of attachment between borderline expression of emotional dependence and hostility in women with gambling disorder
It has been extensively documented that insecure attachment may be one of the core risk factors for the later development of Gambling Disorder (GD). Difficulties in the regulation of hostility and emotional dependence towards the partner have also been associated with GD. However, women with GD remain a population that has hardly been studied in previous scientific literature. Therefore, it is unknown how the aforementioned variables operate on t…
Parental stress and children’s long-term vocabulary and decoding abilities
Although there is evidence for a close link between early phonological skills and the development of vocabulary and decoding abilities, it is less clear which factors modulate the development of phonological skills. This study longitudinally explored the relation of contextual family variables on the development of phonological skills in 104 children aged 5 years. Children were tested on phonological short-term memory and phonological awareness b…

Development and Validation of a Measure of Expectations Toward Romantic Relationships (ETRR)
The literature review shows a lack of standardized and validated scales assessing expectations toward romantic relationships in emerging adults. Hence, the main goal of this study was to design a tool that assesses romantic relationship expectations in Spanish-speaking emerging adults involved and non-involved in a romantic relationship, and to examine the psychometric properties and validity of this new measure. Participants included 1077 underg…

Role of resilience and emotional control in relation to mental health in people with cancer
This study explored the relationship between emotional control, resilience, and mental health in cancer. Patients with cancer were recruited ( n = 170). Courtauld Scale of Emotional Control, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the General Health Questionnaire were selected. Assuming the absence of interaction among the variables, they were analyzed separately. Four groups resulted, finding statistically significant differences ( F(4, 165) = 18.…
Design and evaluation of a positive intervention to cultivate mental health
The past two decades have witnessed a proliferation of positive psychological interventions for clinical and non-clinical populations, and recent research, including meta-analyses, is providing evidence of its effectiveness. Most interventions have focused on increasing life satisfaction, positive affect, and psychological well-being. Manualized, multi-component interventions based on a comprehensive theory are scarce. Keyes' concept of mental he…
