Affective Ties, Cognitive Strains
Transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) individuals experience higher levels of psychological distress than cisgender individuals. Social identity has been linked to mental health through its role in satisfying core psychological needs, including belonging, self-esteem, control, and meaningful existence. Social identity is a multidimensional construct that includes affective identification with the group and cognitive centrality, the latter e…
A Double‐Edged Sword
Social identity has been linked to both positive and negative health outcomes. Using a correlational design with a sample of N = 501 individuals with type 2 diabetes, this study examined how the affective (i.e., affectivity) and cognitive (i.e., centrality) dimensions of social identification with the group of individuals with type 2 diabetes are associated with the intention to use healthcare services. We hypothesized that stronger affective ide…
Mindfulness, teacher mental health, and well-being in early education
This study analyzed the relationship between mindfulness and variables considered relevant for teacher-student interactions: teacher burnout, general stress, anxiety, depression, and quality of life. We hypothesized that mindfulness would relate negatively with mental health variables and positively with quality of life. We also explored which specific aspects of mindfulness would predict burnout, depression, anxiety, stress, and quality of life.…

This study aimed to analyze the level of stigma surrounding type 2 diabetes in the Colombian population and its relationships with sociodemographic, clinical, psychosocial variables and behaviors related to management of the disease (se…

Development of an instrument to measure the cultural competence of health care workers
OBJECTIVE: To validate an instrument measuring the cultural competence in health care workers from Chile. METHODS: Using Sue & Sue’s theoretical model of cultural competence, we designed a scale, which was assessed by health care workers and experts. Subsequently, the scale was applied to a sample of 483 different health care workers, during 2018 in Santiago de Chile. The analysis included: exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, estimation…
Hospitalizations for cancer in international migrants versus local population in Chile

Cancer hospital discharges were characterized in 2012 according to the migratory status. The crude and specific rates of hospital morbidity for this cause were estimated for the analysis of their association with migrat…
