Results: The prevalence ofviolence against pregnant and puerperal women was 5.7 and 5.9%, respectively. In both groups, the factors associated with a greater risk of violence were being immigrants, a history of domestic violence, not having a supportive partner and alcohol consumption by the partner.

Estado del arte, y perspectiva actual del concepto de bienestar psicológico en psicología del deporte / State of the art and current perspective of psychological well-being in sport psychology

La Teoría del bienestar Psicológico (Ryff, 1989) constituye uno de los eslabones fundamentales de la psicología positiva, la cual ha estado en marcada principalmente entre dos perspectivas que explican un modelo de mundo y un modelo de sujeto (Díaz, 2006). Ryff (1989) enuncia su modelo bautizado como “Modelo Integrado de Desarrollo Personal” (Integrated Model of Personal Develoment). Considerando que el deporte y la vida deportiva son actividades que requieren ser resistentes, alta capacidad volitiva, autonomía, poseer desafíos, plantearse objetivos, cumplir metas, crecer como persona, adaptarse a los distintos ambientes y cambios y para ello, relacionarse positivamente con el entorno, ser saludable, y mantener un control sobre lo que se hace, es por eso que nos detendremos en el concepto, y el análisis del bienestar psicológico y sus implicancias en el deporte y la psicología del deporte, desde el enfoque de Carol Ryff.

Well-being psychology theory (Ryff, 1989) is one of the essential links of positive psychology, which has been mainly framed between two perspectives that explain a model of world and a model of person (Díaz, 2006). Ryff (1989) states her model baptized as “Integrated Model of Personal Development”. Considering that sport, and life cycle sport are activities that demand to be strong, to have superior volitive skills, autonomy, be challenging, set up objectives, meet aims, grow as person, adapt to different environments and changes, and for that purpose, establish positive relationship with the others, be healthy and maintain self control, is for that reason we will stop into this concept and the analysis of psychological wellbeing and its involvement in sport, and sport psychology, from Carol Ryff perspective.
