ABSTRACT

Resumen La categoría diagnóstica de trastorno por atracón (TPA) aparece en la 5ta Edición del Manual Diagnóstico y Estadístico de los Trastornos Mentales (DSM-5 por sus siglas en inglés) como un trastorno alimentario y de la ingesta de alimentos, este trastorno es más prevalente en muestras de obesos y, a diferencia de la anorexia y bulimia nerviosa, es más común en varones. Por lo tanto, el presente trabajo tuvo por objetivo analizar los instrumentos empleados para el tamizaje y evaluación del comportamiento alimentario del TPA en población de habla hispana. Para el tamizaje del TPA, se han creado dos instrumentos que han tenido una amplia aceptación: Cuestionario de Alimentación y Patrones de Peso-Revisado (QEWP, por siglas en inglés) y la Escala de Atracón (BES, por siglas en inglés), mientras que para la evaluación de la conducta alimentaria, fue creado el Cuestionario de Tres Factores de la Alimentación (TFEQ, por sus siglas en inglés). Se concluye que es necesario realizar más estudios para evaluar las propiedades psicométricas del QEWP, BES y TFEQ en muestra de habla hispana.

Therefore, the present work aimed to analyze the instruments used for the screening and evaluation of the eating behavior of BED in the Spanish-speaking population. For the screening of the BED, two instruments have been created that have been widely accepted: Questionnaire on Eating and Weight Patterns (QEWP) and the Binge Eating Scale (BES), while that for the evaluation of the alimentary behavior, the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) was created.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to generate normative data for five tests of attention and executive functions (M-WCST, Stroop test, TMT, BTA, and SDMT), in a group of 322 Ecuadorian adults from Quito between the ages of 18 and 85. METHOD: Multiple regression analyzes taking into account age, education, and gender were used to generate the normative data. RESULTS: Age and education were significantly related to test performance such that scores decreased with age and improved as a function of education. An online calculator is provided to generate normative test scores. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study that presents normative data for tests of executive functions and attention in an Ecuadorian adult population. This data will improve the clinical practice of neuropsychology and help to develop the field in the country.
