Strengths Knowledge Scale (SKS) and Strengths Use Scale (SUS): Revisiting Psychometric Properties and Gender Invariance in the General Spanish Population
The Strengths Knowledge Scale (SKS) and the Strengths Use Scale (SUS) are the most widely used instruments to measure strengths knowledge and strengths use, yet their psychometric properties have not been examined in the general Spanish population and the factor structure of the SUS remains inconclusive. This study examines the factor structure, reliability, construct validity, and gender invariance of both scales in 574 Spanish adults (M = 33.35…
Too many lemons to make lemonade? Disentangling mental health during the third wave of Covid-19 infections in Spain
The study aimed to analyze the longitudinal change in mental health during the third wave of COVID-19 infections in Spain. Negative (e.g., emotional distress) and positive (e.g., positive functioning variables) outcomes were analyzed. Protective factors (e.g., resilience) as predictors of psychological adjustment (i.e., positive mental health, openness to the future, and low burden due to COVID-19) after ten months of the pandemic were also exami…

How the Covid-19 Pandemic and its Consequences Affect the Presence of and Search for Meaning of Life: A Longitudinal Study
The presence of meaning in life (PML) and the search for meaning in life (SML) are crucial when facing difficult times. Although several theoretical frameworks have tried to explain the dynamics of meaning in life during adversity, empirical evidence about interactions among both constructs using longitudinal designs is scarce. This study examined the trajectories of both PML and SML during the COVID-19 lockdown period in Spain. In total, 220 adu…
Is there evidence that emotional reasoning processing underlies emotional disorders in adults? A systematic review
The prevalence of emotional disorders has increased in recent times. Emotional Reasoning (ER), which is a transdiagnostic process, occurs when feelings, rather than objective evidence, are used as a source of information to make judgements about the valence of a situation. Differences in ER may explain the existence and maintenance of emotional disorders. The objective is to systematically review the role of ER in the occurrence and severity of e…
Disentangling the role of interoceptive sensibility in alexithymia, emotion dysregulation, and depression in healthy individuals
Interoception, a multifaceted concept defined as the perception of internal bodily signals, is crucially involved in mental health in general and in emotion regulation in particular, being interoceptive sensibility (IS) one of the most studied interoceptive processes. The main objective of this study was to explore the relationships between IS and emotion regulation processes, analyzing the role of the eight IS dimensions assessed by the Multidim…
Exploring the Heterogeneity and Trajectories of Positive Functioning Variables, Emotional Distress, and Post-traumatic Growth During Strict Confinement Due to Covid-19
COVID-19 pandemic-related confinement may be a fruitful opportunity to use individual resources to deal with it or experience psychological functioning changes. This study aimed to analyze the evolution of different psychological variables during the first coronavirus wave to identify the different psychological response clusters, as well as to keep a follow-up on the changes among these clusters. The sample included 459 Spanish residents (77.8% …
The relationship between social media use, anxiety and burden caused by coronavirus (Covid-19) in Spain
The outbreak of COVID-19 and national restrictions to slow down its spread have significantly changed people’s everyday lives. Many people engage in intensive social media use (SMU) to stay up-to-date about the pandemic. The present study investigated the extent of SMU as source of COVID-19 information, and its relationship with anxiety and the experienced burden caused by the pandemic in Spain. Of the 221 participants, 52.5% reported to frequent…
How Does It Feel to Be a Woman Victim of Sexual Harassment? The Effect of 360°-Video-Based Virtual Reality on Empathy and Related Variables
Sexual harassment (SH) occurs when people—mostly women—are targets of unwanted sexual comments, gestures, or actions associated with a lack of empathy on the part of the offender. Virtual Reality (VR) has been defined as the “ultimate empathy machine” because it allows the user to take other people's perspective. The present work aims to study the effect of a 360°-video-based VR experience (vs. traditional perspective-taking task) on empathy and …
Working Alliance Inventory for Online Interventions-Short Form (WAI-Tech-SF): The Role of the Therapeutic Alliance between Patient and Online Program in Therapeutic Outcomes
WAI-TECH-SF is a reliable questionnaire to assess the TA between the patient and the online program, which is associated with positive therapeutic outcomes and satisfaction with the treatment
A Low-Intensity Internet-Based Intervention Focused on the Promotion of Positive Affect for the Treatment of Depression in Spanish Primary Care: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial
Background : A large number of low-intensity Internet-based interventions (IBIs) for the treatment of depression have emerged in Primary Care; most of them focused on decreasing negative emotions. However, recent studies have highlighted the importance of addressing positive affect (PA) as well. This study is a secondary analysis of a randomized control trial. We examine the role of an IBI focused on promoting PA in patients with depression in Pr…
Adolescent Motivation Toward Physical Exercise: The Role of Sex, Age, Enjoyment, and Anxiety
Physical exercise declines during adolescence due to several factors, such as lack of intrinsic motivation or enjoyment, high physical exercise anxiety, and so on. The objectives of this study were to validate the psychometric structure of the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-2 to confirm the existence of five levels of motivation toward physical exercise in adolescent population, as well as to analyze the differences in motivation…
