ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Few studies have analyzed compulsive buying behavior in relation to a specific product. Smartphones are hugely popular products today, especially among young people. These two aspects have motivated this research into the compulsive buying behavior of Smartphones by university students. METHODS: To study this behavior, the main features that differentiate compulsive buyers from those that are not are analyzed, and their risk profiles are obtained through a discrete choice model. RESULTS: Sociodemographic features that define buyers with the greatest propensity to compulsiveness are younger age, longer time spent daily using social networks, higher spending on the acquisition of Smartphones and having owned a greater number of these devices. These buyers also show shopping addiction and greater feelings of guilt after the purchase as well as more positive and negative affective states when purchasing Smartphones. CONCLUSIONS: This analysis not only determines the characteristics that define young individuals with a tendency toward compulsiveness in Smartphone purchases, but also contributes to quantifying the probability of having this tendency.
ABSTRACT
Objetivo: Conocer la evidencia sobre los factores relacionados con la fatiga por compasión entre profesionales sanitarios de oncología y cuidados paliativos. Metodología: Revisión sistemática. Estrategia de búsqueda en bases de datos: Pubmed, Cuiden, Cinahl y Psycinfo. Resultados: La fatiga por compasión ha sido relacionada con el Síndrome de burnout y correlacionada negativamente con la satisfacción por compasión. El nivel de fatiga por compasión varía entre profesionales siendo mayor en enfermeros y médicos. Factores como el autocuidado, las condiciones laborales y la salud del trabajador repercuten en su desarrollo. Las estrategias de prevención se focalizan en el empoderamiento del profesional sanitario, formación y la oferta de periodos de retiro. Conclusiones: Es necesario fomentar la concienciación en el personal sanitario sobre los problemas psicológicos que pueden experimentarse como consecuencia de la atención a personas en situación paliativa, así como fomentar su prevención y abordaje a través de la implantación de diferentes intervenciones
Aim: To know the evidence about the factors related to compassion fatigue among health professionals in Oncology and Palliative care. Methodology: Systematic review. Strategy of search in databases: Pubmed, Cuiden, Cinahl and Psycinfo. 87 documents were founded, 77 excluded because of inclusion criteria and one for low methodological quality. Finally, 6 descriptive studies, 2 qualitative and 1 quasi-experimental studies were included. Results: Compassion fatigue has been associated with burnout syndrome and negatively correlated with compassion satisfaction. Compassion fatigue levels varies between professionals, being higher in nurses and doctors. Factors such as selfcare, working conditions, and workers health affect their development. Prevention strategies focus on the empowerment of health professionals, training and periods of withdrawal.
