ABSTRACT
Una fuente importante de la confusión que rodea el uso del término recuperación deriva de la falta de claridad sobre las funciones respectivas de los profesionales de la atención a la salud y de las personas con problemas de salud mental. En este artículo se ofrecen dos definiciones para distinguir entre el proceso de recuperación y la provisión de atención orientada a la recuperación. La recuperación se refiere a las formas en que una persona maneja un problema de salud mental tratando de restaurar o desarrollar un sentido significativo de pertenencia y un sentido positivo de identidad independiente de este problema. La recuperación es un proceso de cambio mediante el cual los individuos mejoran su salud y bienestar, conducen sus vidas de forma autónoma y se esfuerzan por alcanzar su máximo potencial. La atención orientada a la recuperación es lo que los profesionales del tratamiento y rehabilitación en salud mental ofrecen para apoyar los esfuerzos de recuperación de la persona a largo plazo. La promoción del bienestar mediante el autocuidado y la intervención temprana, tanto mental como física, es un componente importante de la misma. La atención orientada a la recuperación requiere que las personas en recuperación se impliquen en todos los aspectos y fases del proceso de la atención. En este artículo se clarifica la terminología y se discuten algunas de las maneras en que la recuperación y la atención orientada a la recuperación se ven comúnmente desde las perspectivas de la política y de la práctica. Así, defendemos que la persona «en recuperación» ha de permanecer en el centro de todas las conceptualizaciones y debates, así como la necesidad de considerar la cultura en la configuración de cómo se ve la recuperación y se promueve en diferentes sociedades. Creemos necesario promover este enfoque con adaptaciones culturales e incluirlo en las escuelas de salud y en los programas de residencia. Así, los estudiantes y futuros profesionales de la salud conocerán el modelo y podrán decidir sobre su integración en la práctica diaria (AU)
One major source of confusion surrounding the use of the term recovery derives from a lack of clarity about the respective roles of health care practitioners and people with mental health problems. We offer two definitions of recovery in order to distinguish between the process of recovery and the provision of recovery-oriented care. Recovery refers to the ways in which a person manages a mental health condition trying to restore or develop a meaningful sense of belonging and a positive sense of identity apart from this condition. Recovery is a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, conduct self-directed lives, and strive to reach their full potential. Recovery-oriented care is what mental health treatment and rehabilitation practitioners offer in support of the persons own long-term recovery efforts. The promotion of wellness through self-care and early intervention, both mental and physical, is an important component of it. Recovery-oriented care requires that people in recovery be involved in all aspects and phases of the care delivery process. In this article we clarify the terminology and provide a discussion of some of the ways in which recovery and recovery-oriented practice are commonly viewed from the perspectives of policy and practice. In contrast, we argue for a paradigm shift in which the role of the person «in recovery» remains at the center of all conceptualizations and debates while considering the role of culture in shaping how recovery is viewed and best promoted in different societies. We propose to promote this approach with cultural adaptations and to include this model in health schools and residency programs. Students and future professionals of health will thus have information about this model and will be able to decide on its integration in their daily practice (AU)

Internet gambling is popular in college students and associated with problem gambling behaviors. This study evaluated Internet gambling in 117 students participating in study evaluating brief interventions to reduce gambling; the brief interventions consisted of minimal advice, motivational enhancement therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (1-4 sessions). Compared to their counterparts who did not gamble via the Internet (n = 60), those who reported recent Internet gambling (n = 57) wagered in greater frequencies and amounts and reported missing school more often and more problems with family and anxiety due to gambling. Recent Internet gamblers demonstrated similar reductions in gambling over time and in response to the brief interventions as non-Internet gamblers. These data suggest that Internet gambling is common in problem gambling college students, and students who wager over the Internet can benefit from brief interventions.

AIMS: For the first time, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-5) introduces non-substance addictions as psychiatric diagnoses. The aims of this paper are to (i) present the main controversies surrounding the decision to include internet gaming disorder, but not internet addiction more globally, as a non-substance addiction in the research appendix of the DSM-5, and (ii) discuss the meaning behind the DSM-5 criteria for internet gaming disorder. The paper also proposes a common method for assessing internet gaming disorder. Although the need for common diagnostic criteria is not debated, the existence of multiple instruments reflect the divergence of opinions in the field regarding how best to diagnose this condition. METHODS: We convened international experts from European, North and South American, Asian and Australasian countries to discuss and achieve consensus about assessing internet gaming disorder as defined within DSM-5. RESULTS: We describe the intended meaning behind each of the nine DSM-5 criteria for internet gaming disorder and present a single item that best reflects each criterion, translated into the 10 main languages of countries in which research on this condition has been conducted. CONCLUSIONS: Using results from this cross-cultural collaboration, we outline important research directions for understanding and assessing internet gaming disorder. As this field moves forward, it is critical that researchers and clinicians around the world begin to apply a common methodology; this report is the first to achieve an international consensus related to the assessment of internet gaming disorder.

The aim of this article was to describe a model for evaluating and implementing cognitive-behavioral treatment for pathological gambling. The model takes into account the fact that pathological gamblers form a heterogeneous group with varied biopsychosocial characteristics.
