Adaptation and Psychometric Properties in Spanish of the Herth Hope Index in People Who have Attempted Suicide
(SPRINGER, 2021-03-01) Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Camacho Conde, José Antonio
Suicide is a major global public health problem. The most predictive behavior of completed suicide is prior suicide attempt. However, studies focused on risk factors have to date proved unsuccessful in reducing death by suicide rates. To adapt a hope assessment tool to a Spanish clinical population having carried out a suicide attempt, to evaluate whether hope modulates the resilience level following discharge from the emergency department. The sample comprised 682 people (62.4% female) aged between 18 and 77 years (M = 39; SD = 19.1) with previous suicide attempts who were administered the Herth Hope Index, the Beck Hopelessness Scale, and the 14-item Resilience Scale. The HHI in Spanish (IEH) showed a high internal consistency (α = .97), a two-dimensional structure that explains 73% of the variance with high goodness-of-fit indices (GFI = .91; CFI = .89; RMSEA = .08), and divergent validity of -.77 with hopelessness. Significant hope-related differences by resilience level were also observed. Hope modulates resilience to suicide attempts and a new scale adapted to the Spanish clinical population is offered. This short tool is easy to use in emergency department settings and predicts the level of potential vulnerability to more serious future repeated attempts.

Do psychological strengths protect college students confined by COVID-19 to emotional distress? The role of gender
(Elsevier, 2021-03-10) Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Valencia-Naranjo, Nieves
The COVID-19 pandemic represents a stressful situation for the university population due to the important changes in the development of their studies and in their living conditions. However, the impact of factors related to the family unit (living with COVID-19 positive patients and living with Essential Services Workers-ESW) and other protective psychosocial factors that could produce resilient or psychopathological results (anxiety and depression) in this population has not been sufficiently assessed, differentiating them by gender. The results obtained show that both variables related to the family unit and psychosocial protective variables explain 28.6% of the variance in general distress in the total sample (R2 = 0.286; F(3,250) =34,717; p < .001). However, models of regression of distress and anxiety levels differ between men and women, but not in terms of mood alteration. Women facing circumstances reminiscent of mandatory pandemic containment have moderately higher levels of resilience than men (tCDRISC(125) = 2.218; p < .05; tGSE(125) = 2.415; p < .05; tCDRISC(125) = 0.146; p = .884; tGSE(125) = 0.315; p = .756). The results are discussed from the perspective of gender differences, taking into account the contribution of sociodemographic factors that increase remembrance of the stressor/trauma and the coping styles of the participants.

Exploring resilience and well-being of family caregivers of people with dementia exposed to mandatory social isolation by COVID-19
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2021-09-14) Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Sarhani-Robles, Mariam; Sarhani-Robles, Aziz
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has raised questions about the resilience of health care systems worldwide. In this regard, one group of people whose physical and mental health has been affected has been family caregivers of people with dementia. Objective: This study aims to identify the variables that predict a high degree of well-being in family caregivers of people with dementia during this period of mandatory lockdown. Methods: A total of 310 respondents participated in an online survey (266 women and 44 men) from various regions in Spain, aged between 20 and 73 years old (M = 46.45; SD = 15.97), and all were family members. Results: The results showed that there were notable differences in all the protective variables, together with a significant strong positive relationship between well-being and resilience (r = 0.92; p < 0.01) and with coping strategies (r = 0.85; p < 0.01), and there were also some significant negative relationships between well-being and difficulties in emotional regulation (ρ = -.78; p < 0.01). The most predictive variables of a higher level of well-being included the type of dementia (β = 1.19; CI (95%) = 1.01-1.29; p< 0.01), living in a large house (β = 0.97; CI (95%) =. 23-0.98; p < 0.01), social support as a coping strategy (β = 1.27; CI (95%) = 1.21-1.29; p < 0.01) and mainly resilience (β = 1.34; CI (95%) = 1.30-1.37; p < 0.01). Discussion: We discuss the importance of promoting higher levels of resilience through the development of protective psychosocial variables in caregivers of people with dementia exposed to situations of mandatory social isolation as a modulator of the psychosocial well-being of these family caregivers.
Gender Implications of the Fear of COVID-19 Scale in the Spanish Population: A Validation Study
(EDUCATIONAL PUBLISHING FOUNDATION-AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOC (APA), 2021-06-28) Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Lara Cabrera, Mariela; Valencia-Naranjo, Nieves
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) for the general Spanish population. Method: A cross-sectional investigation was carried out in several stages. Participants (N = 699) between the ages of 18 and 73 (M = 27.79; SD = 12.68) completed both the FCV-19S and the Hospital, Anxiety, and Depression Scale (HADS). We performed descriptive, exploratory factorial (n = 349), confirmatory (n = 350), and scale reliability analyses. Results: The results confirmed the factor structure of the original scale as well as the scale's goodness-of-fit indices and good internal consistency (α = .91, ω = .98). The correlations between the Spanish FCV-19S and the HADS support the scale's validity, especially for the subdimension of anxiety. Conclusions: The Spanish version of the FCV-19S appears to be a valid measure for the assessment of fear in an adult population. The present study moves research forward by providing a confirmatory analysis of the gender variable's influence on the factor analysis. The FCV-19S-Spanish provides a valid brief measure to evaluate fear of being infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The results also revealed that fear was higher among women than among men, which is important as it suggests that more attention needs to be paid to assessing and treating women's fear. Assessing and treating fear represents an important step for the prevention of future mental health problems.
Papel de la resiliencia en las tentativas suicidas futuras en personas con intentos previos de suicidio en la provincia de Jaén
(Jaén : Universidad de Jaén, 2016-02-04) Sánchez-Teruel, David; García-León, Ana; Muela-Martínez, José-Antonio; Universidad de Jaén. Departamento de Psicología
[ES] Se pretende construir y valorar las propiedades psicométricas de una escala de resiliencia ante tentativas suicidas (ERATS) en personas de la población general (N=470) y en personas que hayan realizado alguna tentativa en la provincia de Jaén (N=131), realizando un seguimiento mensual sobre las futuras tentativas durante 6 meses en población clínica. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que la escala de resiliencia construida presenta un funcionamiento diferenciado según población de validación, y que la escala adaptada en personas que han realizado una tentativa de suicidio (ERATS-18) presenta mejores propiedades psicométricas y capacidad predictiva de reintentos futuros que la escala adaptada en población general (ERATS-12). Se discuten los resultados obtenidos y se plantean nuevas perspectivas de trabajo dentro del ámbito de la resiliencia ante situaciones de riesgo como la tentativa suicida

Preliminary study on emotional competence in adults with down syndrome
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2020-11) Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Sánchez-Teruel, David; Valencia Naranjo, Nieves; Delgado Rodriguez, Rafael
The social functioning of adults with Down Syndrome (DS) specially influences their quality of life. Emotional intelligence (EI) plays a key role in social outcomes because it is defined as a variety of social and emotional skills that enable people to be more effective in their personal and social lives. Thus, validated EI tests for use among adults with DS must be reliable. This study aimed to evaluate psychometric properties of the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory: Youth Version (EQ-i:YV) in adults with DS. A two-stage cross-sectional inves- tigation was conducted. First, a pilot study (n = 10) was performed to test internal consistency and item analysis of the subscales; second, exploratory (n = 90) and confirmatory (n = 96) factor analyses were carried out. The 5-factor structure of the EQ-i:YV was confirmed: general mood, stress management, adaptability, interpersonal and intrapersonal. The internal consistency (alpha and split halves) of all five dimensions and the total calculated score of the EQ-i:YV yielded high values. This new version of the EQ-i:YV represents a valid and reliable tool to assess EI in Spanish adults with DS.

Psychometric Properties and Gender Invariance of the Positive Mental Health Scale in Spanish Nurses During the COVID-19 Pandemic
(Wiley, 2025-04-05) Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Sánchez-Teruel, David; Boufellous, Selma; Lendínez-Rodríguez, Cristina
Aim: Positive mental health (PMH) can be considered a key aspect of mental health in the face of potentially stressful healthcare situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study was to analyse the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Positive Mental Health Scale (PMS) in Spanish nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design: Descriptive analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, gender invariance analysis and convergent and divergent analyses were performed, and reliability indices were calculated. Methods: A total of 661 nurses (425 women and 236 men) participated in the study. They completed various questionnaires during August–October 2021. Results: Factor analysis demonstrated a unidimensional structure with very good indices of model fit, high positive convergent validity, especially with social support, self-efficacy and resilience to suicide attempts, and high divergent validity with anxiety and, to a lesser extent, with depression. There was also strong invariance between genders and high reliability indices. In conclusion, the data show that the PMS has adequate validity and reliability in nurses. Furthermore, this study allows us to confirm gender invariance, which has not been examined in other studies. The data show that PMS is a suitable measure for assessing the mental health of healthcare professionals exposed to high-stress situations.

(SAGE, 2023) Boufellous, Selma; Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Lorabi, Souhib; Mendoza-Bernal, Irhomis
Background. Positive mental health can be defined as the presence of emotional, psychological, and social well-being. The original version of the Positive Mental Health (PMHs) scale appears to have good psychometric properties. This study aims to validate the Spanish version for the general population. Methods. A sample of 845 participants (425%–50.30% women) aged between 14 and 70 years (M = 32.1; SD= 4.2) was used. Descriptive analyses were performed on the items, as well as confirmatory factor analysis, convergent validity with protective factors and with risk factors. Results. Factor analysis confirmed a unidimensional structure with excellent model fit indices, high positive convergent validity especially with resilience to suicide attempts and optimism, and high negative convergent validity mainly with anxiety. Conclusions. The PMH is a scale with the necessary reliability and validity to be used in different psychosocial contexts, especially in the health care of the Spanish population.
Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Family Centred Practice Scale for use with families with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
(Elsevier, 2021) Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Sánchez-Teruel, David
Background: The Family-Centered Practices Scale assesses the degree to which staff in Early Childhood Intervention and Development Centers use this approach. However, there is no adaptation of this scale to families of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in early intervention in Spain. Objectives: To validate and analyze the psychometric properties of the Family-Centered Practices scale in Spanish parents with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Methods: Descriptive analyses, exploratory factor analysis (n(1) = 211), confirmatory factor analysis (n(2) = 236), and scale reliability analyses were performed. In addition, the invariance of the scale by parents' age and gender was assessed, and a longitudinal analysis of the scores was performed. Results: A scale with a two-factor structure was obtained, similar to the original version, where the goodness-of-fit indices were excellent (RMSEA [95%CI] = 02[0.01; 0.03]; CFI = 0.97; TLI = 0.98; RMR = 0.02; GFI = 0.96). However, the measure was not invariant in gender, with differences between fathers and mothers. Additionally, the internal consistency of the full scale (alpha = 0.94, omega = 0.90) and of the two dimensions showed high values in this sample and comparing the means between the two measurement time points showed no differences, the test was powerful had a large effect size. Discussion: The psychometric properties of this scale are adequate, which makes it faster to apply and gives it better clinical applicability. Conclusions: This version of scale in Spanish is a valid, reliable tool for evaluating family-centered practices in families with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Resilience Assessment Scale for the Prediction of Suicide Reattempt in Clinical Population
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2021-05-13) Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Muela Martínez, José Antonio; García León, Ana
The objective of this work was to construct and validate an instrument for assessing resilience to suicide attempts in a Spanish clinical population that has made a previous attempt, and to verify its efficacy for predicting future suicide reattempts at 6 months. For the construction of a Scale of Resilience to Suicide Attempts (SRSA) the theoreticalrational strategy was used. The constructed SRSA-18 consisted of 18 items and 3 subdimensions (internal and external protection and emotional stability), had high internal consistency (a D 0.88; & D 0.89) and a high positive correlation with the Suicide Resilience Inventory-25, SRI-25 (r D 0.91; p < 0.01), and to a lesser extent with general resilience scales such as the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, CD-RISC (r D 0.79; p < 0.01) and the Resilience Scale of 14 items, RS-14 (r D 0.76; p < 0.01). Additionally, a specific SRSA-18 score predicted future suicide reattempts 6 months after the first attempt. This new scale (SRSA-18) assesses in a brief and rapid way, through protective factors rather than risk factors, the level of resilience to the suicide attempt in specific clinical subpopulations in hospital emergency services, being able to prevent suicide reattempts with higher lethality.
Self-infl icted injuries in adolescents and young adults: A longitudinal approach
(COLEGIO OFICIAL DE PSICOLOGOS DE ASTURIAS, 2020-08-13) Sánchez-Teruel, David; Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Camacho Conde, José Antonio
Background: Suicide has become a major global public health problem in some clinical subpopulations. Adolescents and young adults with selfinfl icted injuries or non-suicidal self-harm appear to have been understudied. The aim of this study is to assess which socio-demographic and prior comorbid psychopathology condition variables in adolescents and young adults with self-infl icted lesions are likely to be more predictive of future self-injury after 12 months. Method: The eligible participants were 176 people (99 women and 77 men) aged 15-25 (mean = 20.3; SD = 4.56) who were subsequently divided into two groups (those who had been admitted again for self-infl icted injuries or non-suicidal self-harm (104; 59.1%), and those who had not (72; 40.9%) during the following 12 months. Results: The results obtained offer (i) a specifi c socio-demographic profi le in which women (OR [CI95%] = 6.22[6.03-7.11]) aged 21-22 (OR [CI95%] = 4.71[4.29- 5.73]) who are students (OR [CI95%] = 2.99 [1.58-6.01]) are likely to infl ict a new self-injury on themselves after 12 months, and (ii) a clear clinical profi le where several affl ictions are predictors of a new self-injury after 12 months. Conclusions: We discuss the urgent need to develop specifi c health protocols and improve public health alert measures for certain subpopulations.
Variables protecting mental health in the Spanish population affected by the COVID-19 pandemic
(Springer, 2022) Robles-Bello, María Auxiliadora; Sánchez-Teruel, David; Valencia-Naranjo, Nieves
The pandemic produced by COVID-19 can lead the population to suffer serious psychological disorders. However, there are several psychosocial variables that can enhance resilient outcomes in adverse situations. The aim would be to establish the level of resilience of the general Spanish population exposed to a traumatic situation by the COVID-19 in order to identify which protective factors predict resilient outcomes. 1227 homebound people (863–70.3% women), aged 18–73 years (M = 28.10; SD = 12.88) reported on sociodemographic and psychological variables such as optimism, hope, self-efficacy and post-traumatic growth. Having a higher academic level (β = .47; CI (95%) = .11–.34; p < .01), being autonomous (β = .29; CI (95%) = 0.1–.09; p < .01), along with self-efficacy (β = .42; CI (95%) = .71–92; p < .01) and to a lesser extent optimism (β = .31; CI (95%) = .63–.84; p < .01) would be the predictive variables of a resilient outcome. A high level of statistical power (1-β = 1) and effect size (f2 = 19.2) is observed. The Spanish population exposed to confinement presents high levels of resilience, but no relevant post-traumatic growth has taken place.
