Salud sexual de las personas con discapacidad física: educación sexual
Get PDFPeople with disabilities are often excluded from the social construct of functionality and sexual satisfaction, due to the existence of certain negative sexual stereotypes that usually have more serious psychosocial effects than the disability itself. Knowledge is necessary so that the professional, parental and/or social environment does not trivialize or ignore their sexuality.General aim: To provide information on sexual education for people with physical disabilities in Catalonia.Study design: Exploratory, descriptive and cross-sectional study.Sample: 135 surveys from subjects aged over 18 years with physical disability Instrumentation: Sexual Health Survey for People with Physical Disability ESSPDF / 2016.Outcomes: The preliminary results of the sexual education section are presented. 43% of the sample rated the degree of usefulness of the sexual information received as “Very useful/useful” and 9.6% had not received any information. 63% valued the information they had as “Very good/good”.There are significant differences in relation to gender on who would have chosen to receive sexual information (p=0.034), interest to obtain more information on topics such as “receiving information about prostitution” (p=0.01), “love and relationships” (p smaller than 0.001) and the sex of the person they would like to receiveadvise (p=0.014). They showed the greatest interest in topics such as “Ways to get and receive pleasure” and “problems in sexual relationships”.Conclusions: People with physical disabilities still have deficiencies in relation to sexual information. This situation requires the revision of the existing training and intervention programs, aswell as checking the accessibility of the services. It is necessary to work from all existing sex education areas, beyond the health field, such as family, school and society. Sex education should be opened to behavioral and sentimental aspects, thus improving the sexual health intervention of people with physical disabilities.Las personas con discapacidad a menudo quedan excluidas del constructo social de funcionalidad y satisfacción sexual, debido a la existencia de ciertos estereotipos sexuales negativos que suelen tener efectos psicosociales más graves que la propia discapacidad. Son necesarios determinados conocimientos para que el entorno profesional, parental y/o social no trivialice o ignore su sexualidad.Objetivo general: Aportar información en relación a la educación sexual de las personas condiscapacidad física en Cataluña.Diseño: Estudio exploratorio, descriptivo y transversal.Muestra: 135 encuestas de sujetos mayores de 18 años con discapacidad físicaInstrumentación: Encuesta de Salud Sexual para Personas con Discapacidad Física ESSPDF/2016.Resultados: Se presentan los resultados preliminares del apartado de educación sexual. El 43% de la muestra valoran el grado de utilidad de la información sexual recibida como “Muy útil/útil” y el 9,6% no había recibido ninguna información. El 63% consideran como “Muy buena/buena” la información que ahora disponen. Existen diferencias significativas en relación al sexo sobre quién habrían elegido para recibir información sexual (p=0.034), interés para obtener más información en temas como recibir información sobre “prostitución” (p=0.01), “amor y relaciones sentimentales” (p menor que 0.001) y el las mujeres preferían ser asesoradas por una mujer (p=0.014). El mayor interés se mostró en temas como “Maneras de obtener y recibir placer” y “problemas en las relaciones sexuales”.Conclusiones: Las personas con discapacidad física todavía tienen carencias en relación a la información sexual; esta situación requiere la revisión de los programas de formación e interven ción existentes, así como comprobar la accesibilidad a los servicios. Es necesario trabajar desde todos los entornos educadores sexuales existentes, más allá del ámbito sanitario, como es la familia, la escuela y la sociedad. Se debe abrir la educación sexual a aspectos conductuales y sentimentales, mejorando así la intervención en salud sexual de las personas con discapacidad físic
Vínculo curriculum sociedad desde los sujetos del curriculum. Un caso en la Universidad de Atacama
Get PDFThe study that was presented had as objective to know the representation that circulates and emerges from academic professors of the University of Atacama about the Curriculum-Society Link. To this end, in coherence with the qualitative approach, in this case study the information is known through a semi-structured interview and the tissue of the discourse was analyzed through the analysis of the educational discourse (ADE). The strategy of conversation and documentary review of empirical references was also used. It was understood and concluded that the Curriculum-Society Link should be located at the center of the pedagogical and educational discussion of the curricular subjects of said institution, standing out among the findings: little relevance to the presence of the Cuirritura-Society Link; what is reflected in the curricular organization and triggers important problems in the training and education that is delivered, this accounts for a low articulation of the context and its demands with the curriculum of the University.El estudio que presentamos tuvo por objetivo conocer la representaciòn que circula y emerge de profesores- acadèmicos de la Universidad de Atacama sobre el Vínculo Curriculum- Sociedad. Para ello en coherencia con el enfoque cualitativo, en este estudio de caso se recogió información a través de una entrevista semiestructurada y se analizó el tejido del discurso a través del proceso de análisis del discurso educativo (ADE). Se usó además la estrategia de la conversación y revisión documental de referentes empíricos. Se llegó a comprender y concluir que el Vínculo Curriculum-Sociedad debe ser situado en el centro de la discusión pedagógica y educativa de los sujetos curriculares de dicha institución, se destaca entre los hallazgos: poca relevancia a la presencia del Vínculo Cuirriculum- Sociedad; lo que se plasma en la organización curricular y desencadena problemas importantes en la formación y educación que se entrega, esto da cuenta de una baja articulación del contexto y sus demandas con el currículum de la Universidad.
Cuestionario de estrategias utilizadas por los jóvenes para negociar el uso del preservativo
Get PDFWe analyze the factorial structure of an instrument to assess young people perception of the adequacy of thirteen strategies to negotiate the use of condoms. The sample consists of 260 undergraduate students (81.4% women, mean age = 21 years, sd = 2.8). Assessments were made with a scale from 0 (not adequate) to 10 (totally adequate). The results of the exploratory factor analysis show that the thirteen strategies are grouped into three factors: in a first factor are the strategies based on the protection provided by the condom (against infections, pregnancies, etc.), in a second factor those requesting more or less directly the use of condom (request its use, show a condom etc.) and, finally, a third factor that includes strategies involving emotional-loaded arguments (blackmail, threatening with not having relationships, etc.)Se analiza la estructura factorial de un instrumento para evaluar la percepción que tienen los jóvenes sobre la adecuación de trece estrategias para negociar el uso del preservativo. La muestra está formada por 260 estudiantes de grado (81.4% mujeres, edad media= 21 años; dt=2.8). Las valoraciones se hicieron con una escala del 0 (nada adecuada) al 10 (totalmente adecuada). Los resultados del análisis factorial exploratorio muestran que las trece estrategias se agrupan en tres factores: en un primer factor aparecen aquellas que se refieren a la protección que proporciona el preservativo (frente a infecciones, embarazos, etc.), en un segundo factor aquellas que formulan la petición de forma más o menos directa (pedir su uso, mostrar un preservativo, etc.) y finalmente un tercer factor que engloba aquellas que utilizan argumentos con carga emocional (chantaje, amenazar con no tener relaciones, etc.)

Motivação para ter sexo em estudantes do ensino superior
Get PDFBackground:The onset of sexual activity is a time that has an impact on young people’s lives. It is important to know the motivations for the decision to have sex. Objectives: To determine if sexual satisfaction (relationship and trust) influence the motivation to have sex. Methodology: This is a quantitative, cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational study with a sample of 323 higher education students, with a mean age of 20.68 years (sd = ± 2.54 years). The data collection instrument was a questionnaire that enabled the construction of the sexual characterization. The satisfaction with the sexual relationship scale (Ribeiro and Raimundo, 2005) and Motivation to have or not to have sex (Leal and Maroco, 2010) was also included. The ethical procedures were guaranteed. The data was processed with the SPSS program (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) version 24 for Windows. Results: In the sample 62.5% of the participants have date. Of these 53.2% have been dating for more than two years.

La tutoría afectiva y el cambio terapeútico
Get PDFThe present work consists in the design of a proposal of an individualized intervention program, through affective tutoring, whose main objective is to generate possible changes in the way of facing the reality in the adolescent population, besides training the affective tutors who support and guide young people in their process of change. The proposal arises from the reflection carried out, on the one hand, by the number of cases of young people who exhibit maladaptive behaviours. This maladaptation or maladjustment causes conflicts in different areas of life whose influence and / or consequences are frequently observed in schools. On the other hand, from the appreciation of the lack of clarity and systematization existing in a resource offered as an element of help and support from the attention to diversity: affective mentoring. Thus, we have found a gap on what reeducation measures could be applied in each case, since no specific instruments have been defined that can be used by the affective tutor, nor clearly and concisely delimited by the participating population, since these tutorials are carry out without designating a professional trained in skills and knowledge to serve as help and support from the attention to diversity. Consequently, a proposal for individualized intervention is designed with the aim of overcoming this lack of concreteness and ambiguity in relation to what affective tutoring is, what variables are associated with them and how the tutoring process should be. It is a proposal based on specific theoretical models (theory of the cognitive- affective molds of Hernández-Guanir and third-generation contextual therapies), in which clear criteria are defined to select the participants, specific instruments and materials are designed and They establish sessions that offer specific training for the affective tutors as well as in the techniques and skills necessary for the intervention with the student. The results provided through in-depth interviews conducted with a pilot sample of teachers who have implemented the program, indicate as appropriate the procedure established, since they consider that it attends to the students in their personal, affective and social with positive results in all areas.El presente trabajo recoge el diseño de un programa de intervención individualizada mediante tutorías afectivas, cuyo objetivo es generar cambios tanto en la manera de afrontar la realidad la población adolescente como de formar a tutores afectivos. La propuesta surge, por un lado, desde la reflexión realizada sobre la gran cantidad de jóvenes que manifiestan conductas desadaptadas debido a conflictos en diversos ámbitos de su vida y cuya influencia y /o consecuencias se suelen observar en los centros escolares. Por otro lado, desde la apreciación de falta de claridad y de sistematización existente en los diseños y programas relativos a las tutorías afectivas. Así, hemos encontrado un vacío sobre cuáles podrían ser las medidas reeducadoras para aplicar en cada caso, pues no se han definido instrumentos concretos que pueda emplear el tutor-afectivo, ni delimitado de forma clara y concisa la población participante, ya que estas tutorías se llevan a cabo sin designar a un/a profesional formado en habilidades y conocimientos para servir de ayuda y apoyo desde la atención a la diversidad. En consecuencia, se diseña una propuesta de intervención individualizada con la pretensión de superar esta falta de concreción y la ambigüedad en relación a qué son las tutorías afectivas, qué variables van asociadas a las mismas y cómo deber ser el proceso de tutorización. Es una propuesta fundamentada en modelos teóricos concretos (teoría de los moldes cognitivo- afectivos de Hernández-Guanir y terapias contextuales de tercera generación), en la que se delimita criterios claros para seleccionar a los sujetos participantes, se diseñan instrumentos y materiales específicos y se establecen sesiones formativas para los tutores afectivos. Los resultados aportados a través de entrevistas en profundidad, realizadas a una muestra piloto de docentes que han implementado el programa, señalan como apropiado el procedimiento establecido, pues consideran que atiende al alumnado en su dimensión personal, afectiva y social con resultados positivos en todas las áreas

Bilingüismo en personas con discapacidad intelectual
Get PDFThe issue of bilingualism in students with intellectual disabilities has been little explored, whether it is simultaneous bilingualism or sequential bilingualism; however, to live in a society marked by phenomena such as globalization, intercommunication and international mobility, in a society that is linguistically and culturally diverse, to attend educational centers where the introduction of a different language as a vehicular language for learning is usual. together with the empirical evidence on the cognitive benefits derived from an additive bilingualism are sufficient reasons to be interested in the possibilities of this group learning a second language.Purpose. Analyze the available information on the ability of people with intellectual disabilities to learn more than one language (L2).Design. Theoretical research. Narrative review.Material: Eleven research articles have been reviewed and we have had access to different forums where professionals and families tell us about the ability of people with intellectual disabilities to learn a L2.Results. The period studied covers from 1991 to 2016; Of the ten articles, two empirical study, a systematic review, a narrative review and seven case descriptions have been found.Conclusions. Taking into account the scarce representativeness of the information found, as can be seen from the results obtained, it can be said that: people with intellectual disabilities can learn two or more languages; they will have corresponding difficulties in regard to various language components and they will exhibit corresponding delays in the development of L2 and L1 learning; the learning of an L2 does not mean a delay in the learning and development of its L1; bilingual children with intellectual disabilities use their dominant language as well as monolingual children for the same level of development.El tema sobre el bilingüismo en los estudiantes con discapacidad intelectual ha sido muy poco explorado, bien se trate de bilingüismo simultáneo o de bilingüismo secuencial; sin embargo, vivir en una sociedad marcada por fenómenos como la globalización, la intercomunicación y la movilidad internacional, en una sociedad diversa, lingüística y culturalmente, asistir a centros educativos donde lo habitual va siendo la introducción de un idioma extranjero como lengua vehicular para el aprendizaje junto a la evidencia empírica de los beneficios cognitivos derivados de un bilingüismo aditivo son motivos suficientes para interesarse sobre las posibilidades de este colectivo sobre el aprendizaje de un segundo idioma.Objetivo. Analizar las informaciones disponibles sobre la capacidad de las personas con discapacidad intelectual de adquirir más de un idioma (L2).Diseño. Investigación teórica. Revisión narrativa.Material. Se han revisado 11 artículos de investigación y se ha tenido acceso a distintos foros donde profesionales y familias relatan la capacidad de las personas con discapacidad intelectual para adquirir una L2.Resultados. El período estudiado abarca desde 1991 hasta 2016; de los once artículos, se han encontrado dos estudios empíricos, una revisión sistemática, una revisión narrativa y siete descripciones de casos.Conclusiones. Teniendo en cuenta la escasa representatividad de las informaciones encontradas, según se desprende de los resultados obtenidos se puede decir que: las personas con discapacidad intelectual pueden adquirir dos o más lenguas; que tendrán las correspondientes dificultades en lo que se refiere a varios componentes del lenguaje y exhibirán correspondientes retrasos en el desarrollo del aprendizaje de L2 y de L1; que el aprendizaje de una L2 no supone un retraso en la adquisición y desarrollo de su L1; que los niños bilingües con discapacidad intelectual utilizan su lengua dominante tan bien como los niños monolingües para un mismo nivel de desarroll
Alcohol y juventud ¿existen diferencias en consumo de hombres y mujeres según edad de inicio?
Get PDFIn adolescence, alcohol consumption is one of the most demanding health problems. However, both adolescents and society show a low perception of seriousness. In this context, the beginning of consumption might establish differences in patterns, facilitating their consolidation. Therefore, it is analyzed if there are differences between those people who started their consumption before and after 14 years, in terms of frequency of consumption, perceived benefits and problems. For this purpose, 894 young Spaniards between 18 and 22 years old (33.6% men and 67.3% women), completed a questionnaire about health habits aimed at young people. According to results, 99.4% consume alcohol at the present and more than a third percent started before age 14. Men would begin both earlier consumption and their first drunkenness (between 10 and 12 years), showing statistically significant differences compared to women, for the first one (Chi2 = 15.66; p≤, 008). In general, in both men and women, it is observed how people who started the consumption before the age of 14 show a greater frequency. In some cases, as in the daily intake of beer, they double the consumption of those who started it later. In addition, they report more damages due to alcohol consumption, as well as perceiving benefits related to their consumption such as feeling more secure, meeting people more easily, feeling euphoria or fighting boredom more easily. Thus, the results support a greater risk exposure, behavioral and attitudinal, among those people who started drinking earlier. In this way, it is supported the importance of delaying the consumption of alcohol and, consequently, managing preventive plans aimed at younger ages.En la adolescencia, el consumo de alcohol supone uno de los problemas de salud más acuciantes. Sin embargo, tanto los adolescentes como la sociedad, muestran una baja percepción de gravedad. En este contexto, la edad de inicio podría establecer diferencias en los patrones de consumo, facilitando su consolidación. Por ello, se analiza si existen diferencias entre aquellas personas que iniciaron su consumo antes y después de los 14 años, en cuanto a la frecuencia de consumo, los beneficios percibidos y los problemas ocasionados. Con tal fin, 894 jóvenes españoles entre 18 y 22 años (33,6% hombres y 67,3% mujeres), cumplimentaron un cuestionario sobre hábitos de salud dirigido a población joven. Según los resultados, el 99,4% consume alcohol en el momento actual y más de un tercio comenzó antes de los 14 años. Los hombres iniciarían antes tanto el consumo, como las primeras borracheras (entre los 10 y 12 años), mostrando diferencias estadísticamente significativas con las mujeres, en el primer caso (Chi2=15,66; p≤,008). En líneas generales, tanto en hombres como en mujeres, se observa cómo las personas que iniciaron el consumo antes de los 14 años, muestran una mayor frecuencia en el mismo. En algunos casos, como en la ingesta diaria de cerveza, llegan a doblar el consumo de los que lo iniciaron después. Además, reportan en mayor medida haber sufrido consecuencias negativas por el alcohol, así como percibir beneficios relacionados con su consumo como sentirse más seguros, conocer más fácilmente a personas, sentir euforia o combatir el aburrimiento con más facilidad. Así pues, los resultados apoyan una mayor exposición al riesgo, conductual y actitudinal, entre aquellas personas que comenzaron antes el consumo. De esta forma, se vuelve a poner de manifiesto la importancia de retrasar el consumo del alcohol y, en consecuencia, de gestionar planes preventivos dirigidos a edades más tempranas
Indicadores bibliométricos sobre el plan de acción tutorial en la universidad para el alumnado con discapacidad desde 1988-2018
Get PDFThe diversity present in university classrooms is an element that teachers are founding. There are many tools to respond to functional diversity and one of them is the tutorial action. The objective of this research is to analyze the scientific production of the tutorial action in the University for students with disabilities. For this purpose, the ISI Web of Science is used and the search terms tutorial action, disability and tutorial action plan are established; in Spanish and English. A sample of 78 articles is obtained and will be studied based on bibliometric indicators such as research areas, categories of the Web of Science, years of publication. The results indicate that the period 2015- 2016 produced the vast majority of the papers. Furthermore, English is the language of greatest scientific production. In spite of this, Spain is the largest producer on the subject, with the University of Granada and Burgos as the most outstanding centres. Finally, Education and Educational Research is the category and area of research where most articles are generated. However, the technological areas are gaining in importance due to the versatility of the technology. As future lines of research, the possibility of analysing the contents studied and the most studied educational areas is proposed.La diversidad presente en las aulas universitarias es un elemento al que tiene que dar respuesta el profesorado. Existen multitud de herramientas con los que dar respuesta a la diversidad funcional y una de ellas es la acción tutorial. El objetivo de la investigación es realizar un análisis de la producción científica sobre la acción tutorial en la Universidad para el alumnado con discapacidad.Para ello se utiliza la ISI Web of Science y estableciendo como términos de búsqueda acción tutorial, discapacidad y plan de acción tutorial; en castellano y en inglés. Se obtiene una muestra de 78 artículos que se estudiarán a partir de unos indicadores bibliométricos como por ejemplo las áreas de investigación, categorías de la web of Science, años de publicación. Los resultados indican que el periodo de 2015-2016 fue el año de mayor producción científica, siendo el inglés el idioma de mayor producción científica. A pesar de ello España es el mayor productor sobre la temática; destacando la Universidad de Granada y Burgos como los centros más destacados. Finalmente Education y Educational Research es la categoría y el área de investigación donde se generan más artículos. A pesar de ello las áreas tecnológicas están adquiriendo un mayor peso debido a la versatilidad que ofrece la tecnología. Como futuras líneas de investigación se plantea la posibilidad de analizar los contenidos estudiados y aquellas áreas educativas más trabajada
