ABSTRACT

Se presentan a continuación los resultados de un estudio exploratorio y descriptivo centrado en el análisis de los sentidos y vivencias asociados a experiencias de consumo de MDMA (3,4-metilendioximetanfetamina, Éxtasis) en usuarios jóvenes de esta sustancia que habitaban la ciudad de Montevideo en el período 2017-2019. Se desarrolló un muestreo no probabilístico en cadena que permitió la realización de 13 entrevistas a personas con edades comprendidas entre los 20 y 32 años. Los resultados de este trabajo confirman las motivaciones de consumo ya identificadas en otros estudios tales como la búsqueda de un estado de euforia y desinhibición así como de descarga energética y felicidad compartida. Sin embargo también se observó un particular interés en la posibilidad de comunicación sincera al igual que una marcada confianza en lograr experiencias poco riesgosas que propicien efectos duraderos en los vínculos generados por el consumo compartido. Estos indicios pueden ser de interés para el diseño de estrategias clínicas que incluyan a esta sustancia como fármaco coadyuvante de la experiencia terapéutica.


Below are presented the results of an exploratory and descriptive study focused on analyzing the senses and experiences associated with MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, Ecstasy) consumption experiences in young users of this substance living in the city of Montevideo in the period 2017-2019. A non-probabilistic chain sampling was developed that allowed for the realization of 13 interviews with people between the ages of 20 and 32. The results of this work confirm the consumption motivations already identified in other studies, such as the search for a state of euphoria and disinhibition, as well as energetic discharge and shared happiness. However, a particular interest was also observed in the possibility of sincere communication, as well as a marked confidence in achieving low-risk experiences that foster lasting effects on the relationships generated by shared consumption. These findings may be of interest for the design of clinical strategies that include this substance as an adjunct drug for therapeutic experiences.


A seguir estão apresentados os resultados de um estudo exploratório e descritivo centrado na análise dos sentidos e experiências associados ao consumo de MDMA (3,4-metilenodioximetanfetamina, Ecstasy) em usuários jovens desta substância que residiam na cidade de Montevideo no período de 2017 a 2019. Foi realizado um amostragem não probabilística em cadeia que permitiu a realização de 13 entrevistas com pessoas entre 20 e 32 anos de idade. Os resultados deste trabalho confirmam as motivações de consumo já identificadas em outros estudos, tais como a busca por um estado de euforia e desinibição, bem como a descarga energética e a felicidade compartilhada. No entanto, também foi observado um interesse particular na possibilidade de comunicação sincera, bem como uma confiança marcante em alcançar experiências de baixo risco que propiciem efeitos duradouros nos vínculos gerados pelo consumo compartilhado. Esses indícios podem ser de interesse para o desenvolvimento de estratégias clínicas que incluam esta substância como um fármaco coadjuvante da experiência terapêutica.

ABSTRACT

RESUMO O trabalho em questão, tem como objetivo central apresentar uma pesquisa voltada às principais motivações relacionadas à prática de atividades físicas durante o período de graduação no curso de Psicologia na Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS). Desse modo, o instrumento utilizado será um questionário realizado e formulado pelos alunos pesquisadores, assim, pretende-se analisar o principal interesse precursor da prática, sendo as opções: diversão, hobby, descontração, competência, autoestima, saúde física ou influência social, além do levantamento da frequência da atividade realizada. Além disso, como fator secundário, procura-se perceber as razões daqueles que não realizam nenhum tipo de atividade, tendo como questões de escolha: motivos financeiros, falta de tempo, escolha própria e falta de motivação por parte da universidade. O questionário irá aborda ainda se os entrevistados pretendem iniciar alguma prática futuramente. Com base nos resultados, será possível deduzir a importância da prática de atividades físicas e principalmente seus benefícios, que se enquadram na melhora inclusive do desempenho acadêmico, e associar tais questões com os motivos dos não- praticantes também.


ABSTRACT The main objective of this work is to present a research focused on the main motivations related to the practice of physical activities during the graduation period in the Psychology course at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS). In this way, the instrument used will be a questionnaire carried out and formulated by the research students, thus, it is intended to analyze through this, the main precursor interest of the practice, being the options: fun, hobby, relaxation, competence, self-esteem, physical health or by social influence, and the frequency of the activity carried out. In addition, as a secondary factor, an attempt is made to understand the reasons of those who do not carry out any type of activity, having as choice issues: financial reasons, lack of time, own choice and lack of motivation on the part of the university, and as an additional, ask if they intend to start some practice in the future. Based on the results, it is possible to deduce the importance of the practice of physical activities and mainly its benefits, which fit in the improvement sometimes, even, of the academic performance, and to associate such questions with the motives of the non-practitioners as well.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the difference of demographics and influencing factors of motivations between whole blood donors and plasmapheresis donors, so as to provide scientific reference for effective recruitment strategy. 【Methods】 A total of 200 whole blood donors from Guangyuan Blood Center and 200 plasmapheresis donors from Jiange Plasmapheresis Station were selected in August 2021 for on-site questionnaire survey using the method of cross-sectional survey. Statistical analysis was performed by chi-square test, univariate and multivariate logistic regression. 【Results】 There were significant differences in gender, age, occupation, education level and annual family income between whole blood donors and plasmapheresis donors (P<0.05). Males accounted for a large proportion of whole blood donors(124/196, 63.3%), whereas females accounted for a large proportion of plasmapheresis donors(117/198, 59.1%). There was little difference in the number of whole blood donors in different age groups, while the age of plasmapheresis donors was concentrated in 40~59 years old (167/198, 84.3%). In terms of occupation, civil servants (including public institutions) accounted the highest proportion in whole blood donors (41/196, 20.9%), and farmers accounted the highest proportion (152/198, 76.8%) in plasmapheresis donors. The number of whole blood donors increased with the education level, and donors with college/university and above degree accounted the largest proportion (80/196, 40.8%). Plasmapheresis donors with junior middle school education and college/university and above accounted the largest and smallest proportion (49.5% vs 4.5%). The annual family income of whole blood donors ranged from 30 000 to 80 000 yuan accounted the largest proportion (109/196, 55.6%), and the annual family income of plasmapheresis donors less than 30 000 yuan accounted the largest proportion (132/198, 66.7%). 【Conclusion】 There were significant statistical differences in gender, age, education level, occupation and annual family income between whole blood and plasmapheresis donors. Therefore, targeted recruitment strategies should be formulated.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O objetivo foi descrever características de uso e aspectos sociodemográficos e motivacionais de ciclistas usuários do sistema cicloviário da cidade de Pelotas, estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Foi realizado um estudo de métodos mistos com abordagem quantitativa e qualitativa. No total, 841 ciclistas foram amostrados aleatoriamente e entrevistados no componente transversal descritivo do estudo. A maior parte dos usuários eram homens (82,9%), pertencentes à faixa etária entre 30 e 59 anos (55,8%) e trabalhadores da construção civil ou do comércio (47,4%). Mais de 80% utilizam a bicicleta como deslocamento. Embora a grande maioria tenha relatado utilizar bicicleta mesmo em dias de verão e inverno rigorosos, apenas 56,6% relataram manter o uso em dias de chuva. Nove entrevistas semiestruturadas foram realizadas no componente qualitativo e emergiram barreiras como condições climáticas atreladas à qualidade das vias (dias de chuva), relações de trânsito conflituosas e necessidade de melhoria e ampliação das vias em direção aos bairros. Entre as motivações, foram destacadas questões de economia de gastos com transporte e de cuidados da saúde (entre os ciclistas de lazer). Os resultados encontrados apresentam subsídios específicos para intervenções de políticas públicas e necessidade de foco de acordo com seus usuários.


Abstract The scope of this study was to describe the characteristics of use and sociodemographic and motivational aspects of cyclists who travel on the cycle paths/lanes in the city of Pelotas (Brazil). A descriptive study was conducted applying mixed methods with quantitative and qualitative approaches. A total of 841 cyclists were randomly selected and assessed in the quantitative component. The majority of users were men (82.9%), from the middle age group (55.8%) and workers in the construction industry and local commerce (47.4%). More than 80% of the participants used the bicycle for commuting purposes. Although the large majority reported using the bicycle even in rigorous winter and summer conditions, only 56.6% reported use on rainy days. Nine interviews were performed in the qualitative component and the following barriers emerged: climate conditions related to the quality of streets, (rainy days); complex traffic systems; and the need for qualitative and quantitative improvement in the paths leading to outlying neighborhoods. Saving money with transport and health benefits (among leisure-time cyclists) are the main motivations for using a bicycle. The results reveal specific aspects for improvement in terms of public policies, and the need to prioritize specific user demands.

ABSTRACT

Research around the world has indicated that the demand for egg donation has grown considerably among young females. This study qualitatively examines the knowledge, experiences, and motivations of young egg donors at a Nigerian health facility. Indepth interviews were conducted in Igbo and English with consenting thirty-one egg donors attending a fertility clinic in Anambra State, south-eastern Nigeria. Data were collected and analysed to generate themes with the aid of NVivo 10 software. Three themes were identified from the participants' motivations and include (a) monetary (93.6%), (b) altruistic (3.2%), and (c) both monetary and altruistic reasons (3.2%). Findings highlighted that the differences were based on a variety of reasons in Nigeria. All the participants were literate and single, and the majority received payment. The majority (77.4%) of those who received payment mentioned that the payment was not worth the donation program. The participants preferred to be anonymous because they had not discussed their donation with their family members, and the non-acceptance of egg donation program by the Nigerian society. Given that the market for egg donation has become a common method of infertility management in Nigeria, our findings have important implications for practices, policy actions, and future research.

ABSTRACT

Resumen La psicología del consumidor permite analizar las respuestas de los individuos ante diversas situaciones. El objetivo de este estudio es explorar los mecanismos de afrontamiento de la soledad generada por rupturas amorosas a la luz de la psicología del consumidor, con un enfoque centrado en las motivaciones de resolución de la situación de ruptura de manera no clínica y mediada por la dinámica de consumo de bienes o servicios reparadores. El estudio fue de tipo cualitativo, sobre diez entrevistas en profundidad a siete mujeres y tres hombres que experimentaron los efectos y las consecuencias de una ruptura amorosa en el último año. Se encontró que los afectados recurren a variadas formas de consumo como la música, libros de apoyo, actividades deportivas y de ocio, lo que les proporcionó maneras de pasar el tiempo, mantener la mente activa, tener interacción social para divertirse y reconectarse con amigos y familia, de tal forma que pudieron mejorar la relación consigo mismos en esa fase situacional de sus vidas. Se concluye que la mediación de actividades de consumo y el redescubrimiento de nexos sociales son fuentes importantes para reponerse de la ruptura amorosa. El estudio presenta limitaciones en cuanto al número de participantes, pero logrando saturación en la información obtenida.


Abstract Consumer psychology allows us to analyze the responses of individuals to various situations. This study aimed to explore the way in which the loneliness generated by love breakups is faced in light of consumer psychology, with a focus on the motivations of individuals to cope with the situation in a non-clinical way and mediated by the dynamics of the consumption of restorative goods or services. The method of the study was qualitative, for which ten in-depth interviews were carried out with seven women and three men, who experienced the effects and consequences associated with love breakups in the past year. The findings show that they resorted to a variety of consumption practices focused on music, support books, sports, and leisure activities, which provided them ways to pass the time, keep the mind active, and have social interactions to have fun and reconnect with friends and family, in a way that allowed them to improve their relationship with themselves in this phase of their lives. It is concluded that the mediation of consumption activities and the rediscovery of social connections are important means to recover from de love breakups. The study has limitations in terms of the number of participants, but it achieves a saturation point in the information obtained.

ABSTRACT

In an attempt to fulfill care needs to the elderly, the family usually assumes this function. In order to understand the social representations of informal caregivers of Brazilian and Portuguese elderly people about the motivations for care, a qualitative, exploratory-descriptive research was carried out, based on the Social Representations Theory, in which 21 informal Brazilian caregivers and 11 informal Portuguese caregivers of elderly dependents were interviewed. Thematic Content Analysis and QSR NVivo® software were used in the treatment of the data, and the results showed care as the main motivation: family relationships, in which marriage, parenting, and the affections resulting from these relationships led to the function; the negative representation of Portuguese caregivers on the home, as a place of abandonment and action contrary to the cultural norm; and the representation of the elderly as frail and dependent, who, like children, constantly need care and attention.


Na tentativa de suprir as necessidades de cuidado destinado ao idoso, a família comumente é a instituição que assume tal função. Com o objetivo de compreender as representações sociais dos cuidadores informais de idosos brasileiros e portugueses acerca das motivações para o cuidado, realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, exploratória e descritiva, fundamentada na Teoria das Representações Sociais, em que foram entrevistados 21 cuidadores informais brasileiros e 11 cuidadores informais portugueses de idosos dependentes. Utilizaram-se a análise de conteúdo temática e o software QSR NVivo® no tratamento dos dados, e os resultados evidenciaram como principais motivações o cuidado: as relações familiares, em que o matrimônio, a parentalidade e os afetos decorrentes dessas relações conduziram a função; a representação negativa dos cuidadores portugueses sobre o lar como local de abandono e ação contrária à norma cultural; e a representação da pessoa idosa como frágil e dependente, que, assim como as crianças, precisa constantemente de cuidados e atenção.


En un intento por atender las necesidades de cuidado de las personas mayores, la familia suele ser la institución que asume esta función. Para comprender las representaciones sociales de los cuidadores informales de ancianos brasileños y portugueses sobre las motivaciones del cuidado, se realizó una investigación cualitativa, exploratoria-descriptiva, basada en la Teoría de las Representaciones Sociales, en la que 21 cuidadores informales brasileños y 11 informales portugueses Se entrevistó a los cuidadores de ancianos dependientes. En el tratamiento de los datos se utilizó el software de Análisis de Contenido Temático y QSR NVivo® y los resultados se mostraron como las principales motivaciones: las relaciones familiares, en las que el matrimonio, la paternidad y los afectos resultantes de estas relaciones condujeron a la función; la representación negativa de los cuidadores portugueses en el hogar, como lugar de abandono y acción contraria a la norma cultural; y la representación de los ancianos como frágiles y dependientes, quienes, como los niños, necesitan cuidados y atenciones constantes.

ABSTRACT

Resumen La actividad física (AF) es importante para generar estilos de vida saludables. No obstante, se desconoce los motivos por los cuales las personas no mantienen hábitos saludables de AF. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar los motivos para la no práctica de actividades físico-deportivas (AFD) en estudiantes entre los 11 y 19 años, en la región de Araucanía, Chile. A un total de 175 participantes se les aplicó el Cuestionario para el Análisis de Motivación y la Práctica de la Actividad Físico-Deportiva. De 57 estudiantes que no practican AFD, 35 individuos señalan que dejaron la práctica de actividad física por falta de tiempo y el segundo motivo es la falta de interés. En cuanto a los estudiantes que nunca han participado de AFD, 22 de ellos mencionan como principal motivo hacerlo es que no se les da bien el deporte y manifiestan pereza y desgano. En conclusión, se hace muy necesario, tanto para profesores como para monitores o profesionales dedicados al área de la AF y la salud, entender a los procesos donde los adolescentes se encuentran, para hacer uso de sus motivaciones e incentivar la práctica de AFD, puesto que los adolescentes han cambiado drásticamente sus intereses y esas lógicas favorecen el alejamiento de las prácticas de AF.


Abstract ABSTRACT Physical activity (PA) is important to generate healthy lifestyles. However, the reasons why people do not maintain healthy PA habits are unknown. The objective of this study was to analyze the reasons why students ages 11 to 19 in the Araucanía region, Chile do not practice physical-sports activities (PSA). A total of 175 participants answered a Questionnaire for the Analysis of Motivation and the Practice of Physical-Sports Activity. Out of the 57 students who do not practice PSA, 35 indicated that they stopped practicing physical activity firstly because of lack of time and secondly because of lack of interest. Regarding students who have never participated in PSA, 22 mentioned that the main reason for not practicing physical activity is that they do not like sports and show laziness and reluctance. In conclusion, teachers, monitors, or PA and health professionals must understand the processes faced by adolescents to use the adequate motivation and encourage AFD practice since adolescents' interests have changed drastically, distancing themselves from PA practices.

De 57 estudantes que não praticam AFE, 35 indivíduos indicam que deixaram a prática de atividade física por falta de tempo e o segundo motivo é a falta de interesse. Com relação aos estudantes que nunca participaram de AFE, 22 deles mencionam como principal motivo o fato de que não se consideram bons nos esportes, manifestando tédio e desânimo. Como conclusão, é necessário, tanto para professores quanto para monitores ou profissionais dedicados à área da AF e da saúde, entender os processos em que os adolescentes estão para fazer uso de suas motivações e incentivá-los à prática de AFE, dado que eles têm mudado drasticamente seus interesses, e essas lógicas favorecem o afastamento das práticas de AF.

ABSTRACT

Os aplicativos de economia compartilhada impulsionaram um novo modelo de trabalho e um novo perfil de trabalhador. Considerando tal realidade, o presente estudo buscou identificar os principais motivadores de engajamento como trabalhador em plataformas de mobilidade urbana, mais especificamente de compartilhamento de carona (ridesharing). Em concomitância, investigou-se a influência de fatores socioeconômicos na relevância dos diferentes motivadores. Participaram da pesquisa quarenta e três motoristas de aplicativos, por meio online, a partir do aplicativo denominado Google Formulários. Para a análise de dados foi utilizado o modelo estatístico de regressão múltipla. Nos resultados encontrados, os motivadores considerados os mais relevantes para a escolha dos participantes foram Autonomia, Renda e Horário Flexível. Dos catorze motivadores investigados, dez apresentaram interações estatisticamente significativas com aspectos socioeconômicos. Os resultados também apontam diferenças entre os motivadores considerados como mais relevantes pelos participantes, quando comparados com estudos realizados em outros países. Salienta-se, portanto, a necessidade de um olhar diferenciado para a realidade brasileira.


Sharing economy applications have boosted a new work model and worker profile. The present study aimed to identify the main worker's motivators for engagement in urban mobility platforms, specifically in ridesharing applications. The influence of socioeconomic factors on the relevance of motivators was also investigated. Data was collected using an online survey from 43 drivers who work through applications. A multiple regression model was used for data analysis. The results showed that the most important motivators indicated by the participants were autonomy, income, and having flexible schedules. 10 out of the 14 motivators studied had significant interactions with socioeconomic aspects. The results also point out differences between the motivators considered most relevant by the participants, when compared to studies carried out in other countries. Therefore, a specific approach to this topic which is compatible with the Brazilian reality is needed.

En concomitancia, fue investigada la influencia de los factores socioeconómicos en la relevancia de los diferentes motivadores. Participaron de la pesquisa cuarenta y tres conductores de aplicativos, por medio on line, a través del aplicativo denominado Google Formulários. Para el análisis de datos, se utilizó el modelo estadístico de regresión múltiple. Según los resultados, los motivadores considerados más relevantes para los participantes fueron Autonomía, Ingresos y Horas Flexibles. De los catorce motivadores investigados, diez tuvieron interacciones estadísticamente significativas con aspectos socioeconómicos. Comparado con estudios realizados en otros países, los resultados mostraron diferencias entre los motivadores mas relevantes. Por lo tanto, se enfatiza la necesidad de una mirada diferente, ajustada a la realidad brasileña.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Despite the well-known benefits for health, low levels of physical activity (PA) remain a public health issue. Research on motives for engaging in different PA shows differences in motives for Sports and Exercises. However, few studies addressed motives using more categories of PA. In this research, we investigated motives for four categories of PA (Individual Sports, Collective Sports, Exercises, and Body/Movement Practices), and possible effects of sex and age among 1,420 physically active individuals. Respondents answered the Motivation for Physical Activity Measure Revised. Intrinsic motives were higher for Sports, while Exercisers were motivated more extrinsically. Body/Movement Practices, although being composed of several activities defined by previous studies as Exercises, showed a motivational pattern closer to Sports. Fitness/Health motivation increased with age, while Appearance motivation decreased. Regarding sex, women reported higher Interest/Enjoyment than men. Our results can have implications for physical activities promotion, especially considering more categories than Sports/Exercises in the context of different motives.


Resumo Apesar de amplamente conhecidos os benefícios à saúde relacionados à prática de atividade física (AF), o baixo nível de participação segue sendo um problema de saúde pública. Pesquisas anteriores mostraram diferenças motivacionais consistentes entre Esportes e Exercícios. Entretanto, poucos estudos focaram em categorizações mais amplas. Nesta pesquisa, investigamos motivações para prática de quatro categorias de AFs (Esportes Individuais, Esportes Coletivos, Exercícios e Práticas Corporais), assim como possíveis efeitos do sexo e idade em 1.420 indivíduos fisicamente ativos, os quais responderam à Medida de Motivação para Atividade Física Revisada (Motivation for Physical Activity Measure Revised). As motivações intrínsecas foram maiores para os Esportes, enquanto as extrínsecas para os Exercícios. A categoria de Práticas Corporais, embora composta por várias atividades definidas como Exercícios por estudos anteriores, mostrou um padrão motivacional mais próximo dos Esportes. A motivação de Condicionamento/Saúde aumentou com a idade, enquanto a de Aparência seguiu o padrão inverso. Com relação ao sexo, as mulheres reportaram maior Interesse/Prazer que os homens. Nossos resultados podem ter implicações para a promoção de atividades físicas, sobretudo ao se considerar categorias mais abrangentes que Esportes/Exercícios e sua associação às diferentes motivações para prática.


Résumé Malgré les bénéfices bien connus des activités sportives (PA), leur faibles niveau de pratique reste un problème de santé publique. Les motifs de la pratique des Pas sont différents pour les sports et les exercices. Cependant, peu d'études ont abordé les motifs de la pratique des PAs en utilisant des catégories plus nombreuses. Dans cet article, nous étudions les motivations pour quatre catégories de PAs (sport individuel, sport collectif, exercices, et pratiques corporelles), et les effets possibles du sexe et de l'âge parmi 1420 individus actifs physiquement. Les participants ont répondu au questionnaire de mesure révisée de la motivation pour les activités physique (MPAMR). Les motivations intrinsèques furent supérieures pour les sports, alors que les praticants des exercices physiques furent plus motivés extrinsèquement. Les pratiques corporelles, bien que composées de plusieurs activités définies dans d'autres études comme exercices, ont montrés un patron de motivations plus proches des sports. Les motivations lié à la santé/forme physique augmentent avec l'âge, alors que les motivations liée à l'apparence diminuent. En ce qui concerne le sexe, les femmes rapportent un intérêt/attrait plus fort que les hommes. Nos résultats sont importants pour la promotion des activités sportives, en particulier quand il s'agit de considérer des catégories autres que les sports et les exercices dans le contexte de l'étude des différentes motivations.


Resumen Los bajos niveles de actividad física (AF) continúan siendo un asunto de salud pública, a pesar de ser bien conocidos sus beneficios para la salud. La investigación sobre los motivos para participar en distintas AFs muestra diferencias en la motivación hacia los deportes y ejercicios. Sin embargo, pocos estudios han abordado los motivos para practicar AFs usando más categorías de AF. En este estudio investigamos las motivaciones hacia cuatro categorías de AFs (Deportes Individuales, Deportes Colectivos, Ejercicios y Prácticas Corporales) y los posibles efectos de la edad y el sexo, en una muestra de 1420 individuos físicamente activos. Los participantes respondieron la Medida de la Motivación para la Actividad Física- Revisada (Motivation for Physical Activity Measure Revised). La motivación intrínseca fue más alta para los Deportes mientras que la motivación extrínseca primó en el Ejercicio. La Prácticas Corporales, a pesar de estar compuestas por actividades previamente definidas como Ejercicios, mostraron un patrón motivacional más cercano a los Deportes. La motivación Aptitud/Salud aumentó con la edad, mientras que la motivación por la Apariencia disminuyó. En cuanto al sexo, las mujeres relataron mayor Interés/Diversión que los hombres. Nuestr Motivaciones, Deporte, Ejercicio, Práctica Corporal os resultados pueden tener implicaciones en la promoción de las actividades físicas, especialmente al considerar otras categorías además de Deportes/Ejercicios en el contexto de las diferencias de motivación.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: el presente trabajo busca conocer las teorías subjetivas de la conducta prosocial de jóvenes voluntarios durante las etapas de respuesta y rehabilitación de un desastre socionatural. Método: se utilizó un diseño de caso cualitativo seleccionando, vía muestreo intencionado, 11 estudiantes universitarios voluntarios ante el desastre hidrometeorológico en Atacama, Chile. Los datos son producidos mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas y un grupo de discusión, utilizando como estrategia de análisis el proceso de codificación de la teoría fundamentada. Resultados: encontramos que (i) los voluntarios significan la conducta prosocial como un proceso de ayuda humanitaria, de temporalidad acotada, la cual depende de la empatía hacia los afectados, percepción de (in)capacidad institucional, evaluación subjetiva del riesgo, capacidades autopercibidas y sentido de responsabilidad social ante el desastre; (ii) Su desarrollo se vincula a una formación valórica temprana, la cual es mantenida por la participación constante en el tiempo en este tipo de actividades y el soporte emocional de terceros significativos; y (iii) Las motivaciones para el despliegue de estas conductas de ayuda, son del tipo extrínseco-social e intrínsecos-personales. Conclusiones: se sostiene la importancia del proceso formativo-educativo para el fortalecimiento del comportamiento prosocial, así como también, la importancia de formalizar el proceso de voluntariado ante estos eventos.


Objective: The present work aims to learn about the subjective theories of the prosocial behavior of young volunteers during the response and recovery stages of a socionatural disaster. Method: A qualitative case design was used by selecting, through intentional sampling, 11 university students who volunteered in the face of the hydrometeorological disaster occurred in Atacama, Chile. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and a discussion group, using the coding process in grounded theory as an analysis strategy. Results: We found that (i) volunteers understand prosocial behavior as a process of limited-temporality humanitarian aid which depends on empathy towards those affected; the perception of institutional (in)capacity; a subjective risk assessment; self-perceived abilities; and a sense of social responsibility in the face of a disaster; (ii) its development is linked to an early value training, which is maintained by the constant participation in this type of activities over time and the emotional support of significant third parties; and (iii) the types of motivation to show this helping behavior are extrinsic-social and intrinsic-personal. Conclusions: The importance of the training-educational process for strengthening prosocial behavior is supported, as well as the importance of formalizing the volunteer recruitment process in the face of these events.

ABSTRACT

Esta pesquisa objetivou conhecer em que medida os valores humanos se relacionam com as motivações para responder sem preconceito frente à homoparentalidade, tomando como base a Teoria Funcionalista dos Valores Humanos. Contou-se com a participação de 235 estudantes universitários, com idades variando de 18 a 55 anos (M = 24,0, DP = 6,82), a maioria do sexo feminino (57%). Estes responderam à Escala de Motivações para Responder sem Preconceito frente à Homoparentalidade, o Questionário dos Valores Básicos e perguntas demográficas, sendo os dados coletados on-line. Realizaram-se regressões múltiplas, tendo os resultados indicado que as motivações internas para responder sem preconceito foram explicadas pelas subfunções experimentação, suprapessoal, interativa e normativa, enquanto que os valores normativos e de experimentação explicaram as motivações externas. Concluiu-se que os valores podem ser bons preditores das motivações para responder sem preconceito frente à homoparentalidade, principalmente os idealistas, reforçando que pessoas que se pautam por tais valores costumam ser menos preconceituosas. (AU)


This study aimed to know the value correlates of motivations to respond without prejudice to homoparenthood, taking into accounts the Functional Theory of Human Values. Participants were 235 undergraduate students with age ranging from 18 to 55 years old (M = 24.0, SD = 6.82), mostly female (57%). They answered the Motivation to Respond without Prejudice to Homoparenthood Scale, the Basic Values Survey and demographic questions, being the data collected online. Multiple regressions revealed that the internal motivations to respond without prejudice were predicted by excitement, suprapersonal, interactive and normative subfunctions. On other hand, normative and excitement values explained the external motivations. In conclusion, human values can be accurate predictors for motivations to respond without prejudice toward homoparenthood, mainly those idealists, reinforcing that people who are guided by these values tend to be less prejudiced.

La investigación tiene un enfoque Cuantitativo, con un diseño no experimental de tipo transversal, descriptivo. El instrumento para la recolección de datos es el "Cuestionario para el análisis de la motivación y la práctica de la actividad Físico-Deportiva" (C.A.M.P.A.F.D). Los resultados manifiestan que las principales motivaciones para la práctica de actividad físico-deportiva son la capacidad personal para el deporte, como un medio de pasar el tiempo, por superación personal y por motivos de salud. Concluyendo que los antecedentes obtenidos debes ser de herramienta para la construcción de estrategias por profesionales de la salud para incentivar hacia la práctica físico-deportivo, desde el conocimiento de las motivaciones intrínsecas que poseen los estudiantes.


The objective of this study is related to the motivations that students have in relation to the physical-sporting practice. Considering that, the physical-sports practice is an important element to maintain a healthy lifestyle, especially in adolescence, since there are constant physical, psychological and social changes. In this regard, the objective of this study is to determine the reasons for the practicing physical-sporting activity, in adolescent students, in elementary and middle school establishments in the Araucanía region. The research has a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, transversal type and descriptive design. The instrument for the data collection is the "questionnaire for analyzing the motivation and the practicing of physical-sporting activity" (C.A.M.P.A.F. D). The results show that the main motivations for the practicing of physical-sporting activity are the personal capacity for sport, as a means of passing time, for personal improvement and for health reasons. Concluding that the antecedents obtained must be a tool for the construction of strategies by health professionals to encourage physical-sporting practice, from the knowledge of the intrinsic motivations that the students have.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION@#Our study aimed to review the quit rates of smokers from our inpatient smoking cessation programme in relation to habits and sociodemographic factors, and also to explore the potential usefulness of electronic cigarettes (ECs) by reviewing smoking motivations.@*METHODS@#This was a retrospective study of patients recruited into our inpatient smoking cessation programme from June 2008 to June 2015. Sociodemographic factors and information on smoking habits were collected using a counsellor-administered questionnaire. Patients were given intensive counselling followed by a phone interview at one, three and six months to assess smoking status.@*RESULTS@#A total of 2,722 patients were enrolled. 27.6% of patients were abstinent at six months' follow-up. Patients who quit smoking were older, married, initiated smoking at a later age and had lower Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence scores. There was a trend towards successful quitting in those with higher education levels and Chinese ethnicity, but this was not statistically significant. Patients who planned to quit cold turkey and those who quit because of social pressures were more successful. Of the smoking motivations, only nicotine dependence was an independent predictor of smoking cessation.@*CONCLUSION@#Smoking motivations such as habitual use and psychological dependence did not influence quit rates and therefore do not support the use of ECs. Instead, a cold turkey method of quitting was shown in our study to contribute to cessation success. We recommend an increased focus on the use of pharmacologic aids as well as involvement of peer/spousal support to aid in such quit attempts.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El objetivo de esta investigación fue indagar en las prácticas de sexting en un grupo de adolescentes españoles y contribuir así a su mejor comprensión a través de una investigación novedosa en España. Se pretende descubrir los conocimientos que los/las adolescentes tienen sobre el fenómeno del sexting y averiguar en sus comportamientos y motivaciones hacia el sexting, revelando si perciben consecuencias de este tipo de conducta. A través de la aproximación cualitativa se realizaron ocho focus group, conformados por 89 adolescentes, que tenían entre 14 y 18 años. Entre los resultados se destacan el desconocimiento del concepto de sexting, llegando incluso a confundirlo con el acoso y el chantaje. Aunque solo un quinto de los y las participantes reconoce practicar sexting, admiten que es una práctica muy frecuente entre la gente de sus edades, especialmente entre las chicas. Los motivos que aluden para justificar su participación en comportamientos de sexting son fundamentalmente de carácter sexual, mientras que señalan que la gente de sus edades sextea por diversión, aburrimiento o por estar de moda. Asimismo, reconocen que hay ciertos riesgos derivados de las conductas de sexting, que afectan más negativamente a las chicas. Además, la gran parte de los/las jóvenes son conocedores de situaciones entre sus iguales de coacciones y chantajes para enviar contenido erótico-sexual, así como de otras realidades como el ciberacoso y el ciberstalking.


Abstract The objective of this research was to investigate the practices of sexting in a group of Spanish adolescents and thus contribute to their better understanding through a novel research in Spain. The aim is to discover the knowledge that adolescents have about the phenomenon of sexting and to investigate their behaviors and motivations towards sexting, revealing if they perceive consequences of this type of behavior. Through the qualitative approach, eight focus groups were made, composed of 89 adolescents, from 14 to 18 years old. Among the results they emphasize the ignorance of the concept of sexting, even confusing it with harassment and blackmail. Although only a fifth of the participants recognize practicing sexting, they admit that it is a very frequent practice among people of their age, especially among girls. The reasons they allude to justify their participation in sexting behaviors are fundamentally sexual in nature, while they point out that people of their age carry out sexting behavior for fun, boredom or for being fashionable. They also recognize there are certain risks derived from sexting behaviors, which affect girls more negatively. In addition, most young people are aware of situations of coercion and blackmail among their peers to send erotic-sexual content, as well as other realities such as cyberbullying and cyberstalking.
