Experiential avoidance and mental health in university students
Persistence and Incidence of Suicidal Ideation Among LGBTQ+ University Students
This study examined the suicidal ideation (SI) persistence and incidence among university students based on sexual orientation and gender identity over a one-year follow-up period. It also explored whether feelings of loneliness mediated these associations. A total of 2,620 students from five Chilean universities completed a survey during their first year of university, which included questions on lifetime SI, sociodemographic information, and fe…
Psychometric properties of the Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth (AFQ-Y8) in socioeconomically disadvantaged Chilean adolescents
Psychometric evidence of the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II (AAQ-II)
Our results indicate that the AAQ-II is a suitable tool for measuring EA and accurately classifying and differentiating EA levels in university students
Social and Economic Factors Associated With Subthreshold and Major Depressive Episode in University Students During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Depression is one of the most frequent mental health disorders in college students and variations according to social and economic factors have been reported, however, whether social and economic variations also exist in subthreshold depression is still unknown, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of subthreshold depressive episode (SDE) and major depressive episode (MDE) and to examine th…
A Latent Profile Analysis of Psychotic Experiences, Non-psychotic Symptoms, Suicidal Ideation and Underlying Mechanisms in a Sample of Adolescents From the General Population
Psychotic experiences (PEs) are prevalent in the general population, particularly in adolescents. PEs are associated with various negative outcomes such as psychotic, depressive, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorders and suicidal behavior. Recent studies in the general population have suggested that what makes PEs relevant is not so much the experiences per se , but their association with non-psychotic comorbidity and other transdiagnostic …

Providing evidence-based programs such as preventive therapy for Alzheimer's disease has relevant implications for public mental health services in Chile
A Qualitative Study of a Mindfulness-Based Intervention in Educational Contexts in Chile
The application of mindfulness-based interventions in school settings has increased considerably in recent years, showing that differences between the characteristics of programmes can impact on the receptivity and effectiveness of mindfulness training. However, few studies have explored the learning process from the perspective of the children and adolescents who participate in mindfulness practice. The goal of this paper is to analyse the subje…
Meditation focused on self-observation of the body impairs metacognitive efficiency
Hallucinations and Related Perceptual Disturbance in a Non-Clinical Spanish Population
Background: Several studies have suggested the continuity of psychotic symptoms between the general population and clinical samples, and have shown that, in fact, the predisposition to hallucinations is a multi-dimensional construct. However, there is no agreement concerning the number of factors comprising it or the significance of psychotic-like experiences. An examination of the beliefs associated with these experiences could increase knowledg…
