ABSTRACT

Background: The Work-Family Culture Scale (WFCS) was designed to assess employee perceptions of the extent to which their organizations facilitates a work-family balance. The WFCS comprises three dimensions: Oorganizational time demands, Managerial support and Negative career consequences. Method: The primary purpose of the present study was to analyze the factor structure and reliability of the Spanish version of the Work-Family Culture Scale in a sample of 795 employees (447 females and 348 males) working for twenty-three firms in the Spanish advertising sector. Results: Both EFA and CFA using split-half data sets yielded an 11-item three-factor model (Managerial support, Career consequences and Organizational time demands) that fits the data very well. The findings for structural equation modeling were as follows: X2(41)= 63.85; CFI= .99; GFI= .97; and RMSEA= .038. Conclusions: Internal consistency for the WFCS factors proved adequate. The results of the analysis indicate that this three-factor model confirms previous exploratory analyses of the original scale(AU)


Antecedentes: la Work-Family Culture Scale (WFCS) fue desarrollada para evaluar las percepciones de los empleados acerca del grado en que sus organizaciones facilitan el equilibrio entre las responsabilidades laborales y familiares de sus trabajadores. La WFCS evalúa tres componentes: demandas o expectativas organizacionales de tiempo, apoyo de la supervisión o dirección y consecuencias negativas para la carrera. Método: el objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la estructura factorial y la fiabilidad de la versión española de la WFCS en una muestra de 795 trabajadores (447 mujeres y 348 varones) pertenecientes a 23 empresas del sector publicitario español. Resultados: los análisis factoriales exploratorio y confirmatorio resultaron en un modelo de tres factores que se ajustaba a los datos X2(41)= 63.85; CFI= .99; GFI= .97; y RMSEA= .038. Conclusiones: la consistencia interna de los factores fue adecuada. Los resultados indican que la versión española de la WFCS posee una estructura similar a la escala original(AU)

The findings for structural equation modeling were as follows: χ(2) (41) = 63.85; CFI = .99; GFI = .97; and RMSEA = .038. CONCLUSIONS: Internal consistency for the WFCS factors proved adequate. The results of the analysis indicate that this three-factor model confirms previous exploratory analyses of the original scale.

ABSTRACT

La cantidad de foros de Internet dedicados a problemas de salud se ha incrementado en los últimos años. No obstante, el estudio sobre la naturaleza y tipología de estos foros en lengua española es escaso. Este estudio examina la disponibilidad en Internet de foros sobre problemas de salud en función del tipo de foro y de la enfermedad a la que se dirigen, así como averiguar si este patrón de representatividad en la red en función del problema de salud es reflejo del encontrado en los grupos de apoyo tradicionales. Se localizaron 913 foros de Internet y 249 grupos de apoyo cara a cara dedicados a 20 problemas de salud diferentes. El análisis de frecuencias mostró diferencias en el número de foros virtuales localizados en función del tipo de foro y del problema de salud. El número de foros libres fue superior al de los vinculados a asociaciones y a los moderados por profesionales de salud. La obesidad, el SIDA, la anorexia, la ansiedad y el cáncer parecen ser los problemas de salud que cuentan con más grupos de autoayuda en la red. La mayor representatividad de estos problemas de salud es similar a la encontrada en los grupos de autoayuda cara a cara (AU)


The number of internet discussion forums for health problems increased in recent years. However, the study about characteristics and typology of internet forums created for Spanish-speaking users is scarce. This study is aimed to examine the availability of health-related Internet forums by type of forum and by illness and to find out if a comparable pattern emerges when comparing with the availability of face-to-face support groups for these health problems. Nine hundred thirteen Internet forums and 249 face-to-face support groups for 20 health problems were located. Results showed differences in the number of Internet forums by type of forum and by health problem. We found more non moderated web-forums than moderated ones. Obesity, AIDS, anorexia, anxiety and cancer were the health problems with more Internet forums. The same pattern was found when comparing with the number of existing face-to-face support groups for these health problems (AU)

ABSTRACT

This study aims to examine the relation between the degree of dissimilarity in patients' and relatives' perception of eating disorders (ED) and patient adjustment. Sixty ED patients and their relatives were interviewed. They completed the Spanish version for ED of the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-R). Patients who agreed with their relatives that their illness was highly distressful, a chronic condition and with high identity, showed higher psychological distress than patients who did not agree with their relatives. When patients and relatives had fairly positive perceptions of illness controllability and curability, these patients showed lower levels of depression and anxiety.

ABSTRACT

El Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire -IPQ-R- se diseñó para evaluar las dimensiones cognitiva y emocional de las representaciones de la enfermedad desde el modelo de autorregulación de sentido común. El IPQ-R consta de tres secciones. Dos escalas que miden la dimensión de identidad y la de causas y otra sección que evalúa las dimensiones de duración (aguda/crónica), curso cíclico, consecuencias, control personal, control del tratamiento, coherencia y representaciones emocionales. El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la estructura factorial y la fiabilidad de la versión española del IPQ-R en una muestra de 170 pacientes con hipertensión (25-75 años). Los análisis resultaron en cinco factores que explicaron el 67,33% de la varianza de los ítems causales y una solución de cinco factores que englobaba las dimensiones de control, coherencia, curso cíclico, duración y representaciones emocionales (76,89% de la varianza). La consistencia interna de las subescalas del IPQ-R fue adecuada


The Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire -IPQ-R- was designed to assess the cognitive and emotional domains of illness representations in the common-sense model of self-regulation. The IPQ-R contains three sections. Two scales measuring identity and causal dimensions and a remaining section assessing timeline acute/chronic, timeline cyclical, consequences, personal control, treatment control, illness coherence and emotional representations dimensions. The main purpose of the present study was the analysis about the factor structure and reliability of the Spanish version of the IPQ-R in a sample of 170 patients with hypertension (27-75 yrs old). The analysis revealed five factors which accounted for 67,33% of the variance of the causal items and a five-factor solution including control, coherence, timeline cyclical, timeline acute/chronic and emotion dimensions (76,89% of the variance). Internal consistency for the IPQ-R subscales were adequate

ABSTRACT

Este trabajo presenta los resultados de un estudio preliminar relativos a la consistencia interna, estructura factorial y análisis de ítems del 'Cuestionario de Interacción Personal Sanitario-Padres de Niños con Diabetes' (C.I.PE.PA.N.DI), una prueba que evalúa la interacción percibida entre padres de niños diabéticos y los profesionales de salud. 153 padres, 88 madres y 65 padres, de niños con diabetes insulino-dependiente (DMID) completaron el cuestionario. Se halló la consistencia interna de la versión de 30 ítems (alpha de Cronbach=0,95) con correlaciones ítem-test altas. Los análisis resultaron en un factor principal que explicó el 40,99 por ciento de la varianza. Concluimos que se trata de un prometedor instrumento para evaluar la interacción entre los profesionales de salud y los padres de niños con DMID y proponemos futuros estudios para analizar otros índices de fiabilidad y validez (AU)
