ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Introduction: Problematic Internet use has become a growing problem worldwide; several factors, including personality, play an essential role in understanding this disorder. The Big Five personality traits and their association with problematic Internet use were examined in a large and diverse population. Methods: A survey was applied to a total of 1,109 adults of working age. Each answered the Big Five Inventory and the Internet Addiction Test. Results: Problematic Internet use was found in 10.6% of them (n = 112). The personality traits extraversion and openness to experience were significantly associated with those with the disorder. With adjustment models, a positive association was found between these traits and being single and higher education. Conclusions: This study represents the largest of its kind in the Spanish-speaking population, highlighting the importance of recognizing the factors involved in problematic Internet use.
RESUMEN Introducción: El uso problemático de internet es un problema creciente en todo el mundo; múltiples factores, como la personalidad, tienen un papel esencial en la comprensión de esta entidad. Los 5 grandes factores de personalidad y su asociación con el uso problemático de internet se evaluaron en una población grande y diversa. Métodos: Se aplicó una encuesta a un total de 1.109 adultos en edad productiva. Cada uno contestó el Inventario Big Five y el Internet Addiction Test. Resultados: Se encontró uso problemático de internet en el 10,6% de ellos (n = 112). En cuanto a rasgos de personalidad, la extroversión y la apertura a experiencias se asociaron significativamente con el uso problemático. Con modelos de ajuste, estos rasgos tuvieron una asociación positiva con no tener pareja y una educación superior.

ABSTRACT
Resumen En este trabajo se analiza la autopresentación online auténtica (AOA): grado en que las personas se presentan de manera online de modo auténtico, sin distorsionar su modo de ser offline. Primero se diseñó una medida psicométrica para su operacionalización, y luego se estudió su asociación con aspectos psicológicos positivos (bienestar y satisfacción con la vida), negativos (síntomas psicológicos y uso problemático de internet) y rasgos de personalidad (normales, patológicos y positivos). Finalmente, se analizó un modelo explicativo en donde la AOA era mediadora entre la personalidad y aspectos psicológicos positivos. Se analizó una muestra de 384 participantes (46.6% hombres, 52.6% mujeres y 0.05% no binarios) con edad promedio de 28 años (DE=5.92) y una muestra adicional para el análisis factorial confirmatorio de características similares. Se obtuvo buena evidencia de validez (e. g., CFI = .917, SMRS = .059) y confiabilidad (α = .79, ω = .85) para una medida de ocho elementos. La AOA se relaciona positivamente con el bienestar y la satisfacción con la vida, y negativamente con la sintomatología psicológica y el uso problemático de internet. Se encontraron asociaciones positivas con todos los rasgos positivos y con extraversión, agradabilidad y responsabilidad. Se hallaron relaciones negativas con desapego y desinhibición. Los rasgos positivos resultaron ser los más explicativos de la AOA. Se halló que la AOA media la relación entre el rasgo de integridad y la satisfacción con la vida y el bienestar. Se destaca el rol primordial de los rasgos positivos en este tipo de conducta online y con los aspectos positivos asociados a la AOA.
Abstract In this study, we examined Authentic Online Self-presentation (AOSP): the extent to which individuals present themselves authentically online without distorting their offline personas. First, a psychometric measure was designed for operationalization, followed by an investigation into its association with positive psychological aspects (well-being and life satisfaction), negative aspects (psychological symptoms and problematic internet use), and personality traits (normal, pathological, and positive). Finally, an explanatory model was analyzed, with AOSP acting as a mediator between personality and positive psychological aspects. A sample of 384 participants (46.6% male, 52.6% female, and 0.05% non-binary) with an average age of 28 years (SD = 5.92) was examined, along with an additional sample for confirmatory factor analysis with similar characteristics. Good evidence of validity (e.g., CFI = .917, SMRS = .059) and reliability (α=.79, ω=.85) was obtained for an eight-item measure. AOSP was found to be positively related to well-being and life satisfaction, and negatively related to psychological symptoms and problematic internet use. Positive associations were found with all positive traits, and with extraversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. Negative associations were found with detachment and disinhibition. Positive traits proved to be the most explanatory for AOSP AOSP was identified as mediating the relationship between the integrity trait and life satisfaction and well-being. We highlight the crucial role of positive traits in such online behavior and with the positive aspects associated with AOSP.
ABSTRACT
Resumen Los Trastornos del Espectro Autista (TEA) y los Tras tornos por Déficit de Atención Hiperactividad (TDAH) son Trastornos del Neurodesarrollo (TN) que coexisten frecuentemente y que tienen factores etiológicos, bio lógicos, clínicos en común. La comorbilidad de ambos TN se asocia a un retraso en el diagnóstico del TEA o un diagnóstico que nunca llegan a recibir y es frecuente el desarrollo de alteraciones perceptivas, emocionales, cognitivas y conductuales relacionadas con la Desregu lación Emocional (DE). Cuando ambos TN no son diag nosticados en infancia, frecuentemente reciben diag nósticos equivocados en edades más tardías, siendo el más frecuente el Trastorno Límite de Personalidad (TLP). Se analiza la presentación clínica de la asociación del TEA y el TDAH, la asociación con DE, diferenciación del TLP y evaluación e intervención. La comorbilidad TEA, TDAH, DE, es un trastorno más severo, asociado a poli farmacología y a ingresos hospi talarios.
Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and Attention Defi cit Hyperactivity Disorders (ADHD) are Neurodevelop mental Disorders (ND) that frequently coexist together and have etiological, biological, and clinical factors in common. The comorbidity of both neurodevelopmental disorders is associated with a delay or lack of ASD di agnosis and the development of perceptual, emotional, cognitive and behavioral alterations related to Emotional Dysregulation (ED) is common. When both TN are not diagnosed in childhood, they frequently receive wrong diagnoses at later ages, the most frequent being Border line Personality Disorder (BPD). The clinical presentation of the association of ASD and ADHD, the association with ED, differentiation of BPD, and evaluation and intervention are here analyzed. The comorbidity ASD, ADHD, ED is a more severe disorder associated to polypharmacology and hospital admissions.
ABSTRACT
abstract Objective: The aim of the present study was to verify the psychometric qualities of the PID-5-FBF in a community sample of Brazilian adults. The internal consistency of the facets and the internal structure of the dimensions were checked. In addition, we verified the correlations between the PID-5-FBF facets and domains with a five-factor model measure. Methods: The sample of this study consists of the 774 Brazilian adults aged 18 to 73 years (mean 28.9 ± 11.58) who answered the PID-5-FBF and BFI-2S. Results: The alpha values were adequate. The internal structure was similar to the PID-5 original form. All the factors and dimensions of the PID-5-FBF have a negative association with agreeableness, while, on the other hand, all correlations with neuroticism were positive. Neuroticism was the factor with the highest correlation with the PID-5-FBF, and openness was the one with the lowest number of correlations. Conclusions: This research contributes to adding evidence of validity to the PID-5-FBF in the Brazilian community sample. Our results are important because it is the first study with the PID-FBF in a Brazilian sample.

Introduction: Bariatric surgery has become an increasingly common procedure, especially for patients with morbid obesity who have obtained unsatisfactory results from conventional treatments. Objective: To evaluate the occurrence of behavioral patterns and personality disorders in patients in the preoperative period of bariatric surgery. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional study carried out with 146 patients from a medium-sized clinic, a reference in the execution of bariatric surgeries in the Midwest region of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Data collection was performed using the psychological instrument entitled Factorial Personality Battery. Descriptive analysis and data association were performed. Results: Half of the participants presented high or very high scores for greater propensity to develop depression and anxiety, showing a close relationship with personality disorders, especially with behavioral patterns of effort and dedication. Discussion: The patterns of effort and dedication behavior are protective factors in the postoperative period, taking into account the adaptations and new habits necessary for a good recovery and maintenance of weight loss. Conclusions: The dysfunctional patterns of behavior that stood out most are related to greater difficulty in perceiving the positive side and ease in perceiving the negative side, leading to a more intense experience of suffering, in addition to difficulty in making decisions and facing routine challenges. Screening behavioral patterns and personality disorders preoperatively is necessary for adequate patient monitoring and successful bariatric surgery.

Objective:To analyze the status quo of type D personality, intolerance of uncertainty and family support in first-episode stroke patients, and to explore the mediating role of family support between type D personality and intolerance of uncertainty in first-episode stroke patients, in order to provide reference for formulating relevant clinical intervention measures to promote the physical and mental health of first-episode stroke patients.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional investigation. A total of 300 patients with acute first-episode stroke who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the Department of Neurology of the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University and the First People′s Hospital of Yinchuan from May 2023 to September 2023 were selected as the study objects by convenience sampling method. The general data questionnaire, Type D personality Scale-14, Family Caring Index Scale and the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale were used to investigate them. Pearson correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between variables, and SPSS plug-in PROCESS 3.5 was used to test the mediation effect.Results:Finally, 300 questionnaires were effectively collected, including 228 males and 72 females. Patients aged ≥ 60 years old were the majority, accounting for 49.3% (148/300). The detection rate of type D personality in the first stroke patients was 37.3% (112/300), and the total score of Type D personality inventory, family support and intolerance of uncertainty of type D personality in the first stroke patients were (22.16 ± 9.95), (6.40 ± 2.23), (27.82 ± 7.93) points. The correlation analysis results showed that the intolerance of uncertainty of type D personality in the first stroke patients was positively correlated with type D personality scores ( r=0.675, P<0.001). There was a negative correlation with family support score ( r=-0.644, P<0.001). The results of mediating effect analysis showed that family support played a partial mediating role in the relationship between type D personality and intolerability of uncertainty in first-stroke patients, and the mediating effect accounted for 34.94% of the total effect. Conclusions:The mediating role of family support between type D personality and intolerability of uncertainty in first-stroke patients is established. In the future, the level of family support of patients can be continuously improved to reduce their intolerability of uncertainty, so as to promote the physical and mental health of patients and improve their quality of life.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo explore the mediating effect of personality traits between job stress and mental symptoms among firefighters. Methods A total of 974 firefighters in Shandong Province were selected as the research subjects using convenience sampling method. The Job Stress Scale, Brief Version of Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory and Symptom Checklist 90 were used to investigate their job stress, personality traits and mental symptoms. Results Job stress was found at a relatively high level in 39.7% of the firefighters, and 19.2% of the firefighters had high level of neurotic personality trait tendency. The positive detection rate of mental symptoms was 9.9% among firefighters. The score of job stress of the firefighters had a positive correlation with neuroticism and the score of mental symptoms (all P<0.01). The score of job stress and mental symptoms of the firefighters had a negative correlation with the personality traits score of extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness (all P<0.05). Neuroticism played a partially positive mediating effect between job stress and mental symptoms, and its mediating effect accounted for 39.6% of the total effect. Extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness played a partially negative mediating effect between work stress and mental symptoms, and the mediating effect accounted for 12.0%, 17.8% and 8.4% of the total effect respectively. There was no mediating effect of openness between job stress and mental symptoms. Conclusion Neurotic personality trait may enhance the negative effects of work stress on firefighters' mental health.
ABSTRACT
BackgroundChronic insomnia is characterized by a prolonged and recurrent course. The efficacy of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a physical therapy method to improve sleep quality remains inadequately supported by evidence, particularly regarding its relationship with personality traits. ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy and influencing factors of rTMS in the treatment of chronic insomnia, and to provide insights into its therapeutic potential. MethodA total of 46 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for chronic insomnia according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5), and were treated at the Third Hospital of Mianyang from September 2022 to September 2023 were selected. Prior to treatment, participants underwent assessments using the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item (HAMD-17) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA). The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to assess sleep quality before treatment, at the end of the second week of treatment and one week post-treatment. ResultsAt the end of the second week of treatment, patients exhibited significantly improved total PSQI score and subscale scores related to subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance and daytime dysfunction (t=4.755~13.361, P<0.01), with 24 cases (54.35%) showing effective treatment outcomes. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that introverted and extroverted personality traits contributed significantly to the regression equation (B=0.317, P<0.01), explaining 29.90% of the total variation (R2=0.299). ConclusionrTMS treatment may effectively improve the sleep quality of patients with chronic insomnia, with its therapeutic effect appearing to associated with introverted and extroverted personality traits.

ABSTRACT
BackgroundDepressive disorders are prevalence among adolescents, with a higher incidence in females compared to males, often accompanied by more severe depressive symptoms. Sertraline is commonly prescribed for adolescent depressive disorder, however, its efficacy is only evident in certain patients. Currently, there is limited research on predicting the therapeutic efficacy of sertraline in female adolescents with depressive disorder. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between personality traits, psychological resilience, coping style and the clinical efficacy of sertraline treatment in female adolescents with first-episode depressive disorder, in order to provide references for the treatment of this population. MethodsA total of 112 female adolescent patients with first-episode depressive disorder, meeting the diagnostic criteria of the International Classification of Diseases (tenth edition) (ICD-10), and undergoing a 4-week treatment regimen with sertraline, were selected from the Second People's Hospital of Guizhou Province from February 2019 to January 2021.General demographic questionnaire, NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI), Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents (RSCA), Coping Style Scale for Middle School Students (CSSMSS), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item (HAMD-17) were used for assessment. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the factors influencing the clinical efficacy of sertraline in the treatment of female adolescents with first-episode depressive disorder. ResultsNeuroticism (β=-0.115, 95% CI: 0.807~0.984) could negatively predicted the therapeutic efficacy of sertraline in female adolescents with first-episode depressive disorder, whereas agreeableness (β=0.129, 95% CI: 1.025~1.264) and RSCA score (β=0.062, 95% CI: 1.004~1.128) could positively predict its therapeutic efficacy. ConclusionHigh neuroticism, low agreeableness and low psychological resilience may be the risk factors for the poor therapeutic effect of sertraline in the treatment of female adolescents with first-episode depressive disorder.

ABSTRACT
BackgroundIn China, the structure shift from just one-child family to both one-child and more-than-one-child families is happening. Exploring how the sibling relationships effect between adolescent personality impulsivity and aggressivity is of great significance for promoting adolescent mental health as well as maintaining social harmony and stability. ObjectiveTo investigate the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents, so as to provide references for the prevention of violent and aggressive behavior in adolescents. MethodsFrom February to April, 2023, a total of 1 200 students with sibling relationships from 12 primary and secondary schools in a county of Sichuan province were included by random sampling. Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS-11), Chinese Version of Buss & Perry Aggression Questionnaire (AQ-CV), and Sibling Relationship Questionnaire (SRQ) were used for cross-sectional investigation. Pearson Correlation Analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the scores of these scales. Bootstrap method was used to test the effecting path of sibling relationships between personality impulsivity and aggressivity. ResultsThe total score of BIS-11 was positively correlated with that of AQ-CV as well as the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ (r=0.485、0.276、0.280,P<0.01), while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ (r=-0.383, P<0.01). The total score of AQ-CV was positively correlated with the scores of conflict and competition dimensions in SRQ (r=0.387, 0.340, P<0.01), while negatively correlated with the score of warmth/intimacy dimension in SRQ (r=-0.304, P<0.01). Within SRQ, negative correlations could be observed between the score of warmth/intimacy and scores of conflict and competition (r=-0.307, -0.375, P<0.01), whereas positive correlation could be observed between the score of conflict and that of competition (r=0.267, P<0.01). The total effect of personality impulsivity level on aggressivity level in adolescent was 0.480 (P<0.01). Sibling relationships played a mediating role between personality impulsivity and aggressivity in adolescents. Meanwhile, the indirect effect values of warmth/intimacy, conflict and competition were 0.054, 0.075 and 0.062, with the effect values accounting for 11.21%, 15.70% and 12.93%, respectively. ConclusionThe personality impulsivity of adolescents can directly affect their aggressivity, and sibling relationships may act as an important channel connecting personality impulsivity and aggressivity.

Objective:Taking naval officers and soldiers who participate in military continuing education as an example, to compare the distribution of sensory learning style of learners with different personality in order to provide suggestions and references for online course teaching.Methods:By using convenient sampling method, MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and VARK (Visual, Aural, Read/Write, Kinesthetic questionnaire) were measured in the Navy. A total of 10 000 questionnaires were distributed and 8 124 valid ones were collected. Through analysis of SPSS 25.0 software, the personality dimensions and personality types were analyzed for personality analysis, and the main indicators of sensory learning style analysis were tendency multiplicity, the intensity and distribution of single sensory learning style, and specific sensory learning styles. The Chi-square test was adopted, with test level of α=0.05. Results:It showed statistical differences in the tendency multiplicity and intensity of single style among officers and soldiers in the three dimensions of extroversion-introversion, sensing-intuition and judging-perception ( χ 2=12.37, 18.02, 22.97, 12.57, 12.73, 24.45, P=0.005, <0.001, <0.001, =0.006, =0.005, <0.001). It showed statistical differences in the distribution of single style and the specific sensory learning styles among officers and soldiers in all the four dimensions of extroversion-introversion, sensing-intuition, thinking-feeling, and judging-perception ( χ 2=28.30, 36.96, 11.40, 41.95, 53.76, 75.48, 43.11, 77.29, P <0.001, <0.001, =0.022, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001). It showed statistical differences in the tendency multiplicity, the intensity and distribution of single style, and the specific sensory learning styles among naval officers and soldiers with different personality types ( χ 2=86.63, 96.22, 147.41, 363.76, all P<0.001). Conclusions:Personality dimension has influence on sensory learning style, especially for extroversion-introversion, sensing-intuition, and judging-perception dimensions. Personality type has an important influence on the tendency multiplicity, distribution type and performance intensity of sensory learning style. It is integral part of online course teaching to meet the diversified and personalized learning needs of officers and soldiers.

ABSTRACT
Personality development theory starts from the physiological needs of individuals,proposes the"two-part personality structure"with"subconscious"and"consciousness"as the subject,and then deduces the"three-part personality structure"with"id,ego,and superego"as the subject.Based on this framework,an instinctive personality dynamics schema was constructed to explore the causes of self-imbalance.Taking these as a foothold,the paper deduced the formation of moral injury from the personality dynamic schema,found the moral anxiety from the self-contradiction of ego,id,and superego,as well as deduced the representation form of moral injury based on Freud's"anxiety".Furthermore,the differences in individual personality development are introduced into the study of moral injury to distinguish between anxiety and guilt in the symptoms of moral injury,in order to better understand moral trauma.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the differences in health empowerment, perceived control and experiential avoidance between patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) with type D personality and non-type D personality. MethodsFrom January to October, 2022, using the convenient sampling method, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 195 patients with CHD from Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Second Medical University. Assessment tools included Type D Personality Scale, Chinese Version of Patient Perception Empowerment Scale (CV-PPES), Control Attitudes Scale-Revised (CAS-R) and Acceptance Action Questionnaire-II (AAQ-II). ResultsA total of 185 effective questionnaires were returned, and 68 patients with type D personality. Compared with the patients with non-type D personality, the scores of negative affectivity and social inhibition were higher (|t| > 9.783, P < 0.001), the total score of CV-PPES and the scores of four dimensions (information, decision, individual and self-management) were lower (t > 5.843, P < 0.001), the score of CAS-R was lower (t = 2.858, P = 0.005), and the score of AAQ-II was higher (t = -9.414, P < 0.001) in CHD patients with type D personality. ConclusionCompared with non-D-type patients, CHD patients with D-type personality exhibit lower levels of health empowerment and perceived control, and higher level of experiential avoidance, which may negatively impact on health behaviors.
ABSTRACT
Resumo A Romantic Beliefs Scale (RBS) foi desenvolvida para acessar crenças sobre romantismo, que podem impactar na formação e qualidade de relacionamentos românticos. Tais crenças podem ser acessadas por meio de quatro fatores que representam o amor romântico ideal, sendo elas: Um e único, Idealização, Amor à primeira vista e Amor encontra uma maneira. Este estudo buscou evidências de validade para a RBS em um contexto brasileiro baseadas na estrutura interna e relações com as variáveis satisfação com o relacionamento e personalidade (Cinco Grandes Fatores e Investimento Emocional). Responderam a um questionário on-line 818 brasileiros com média de idade de 30,7 anos (DP= 14,1), sendo 73,2% mulheres. A escala apresentou evidências de validade baseadas na estrutura interna do instrumento e na relação com outras variáveis, e melhor ajuste a um modelo de fator de segunda ordem explicando os quatro fatores da escala original. Foram encontradas correlações positivas entre os fatores da RBS-Brasil e os fatores de personalidade Extroversão, Socialização e Realização, a Satisfação com o relacionamento e o Investimento emocional.
Abstract The Romantic Beliefs Scale (RBS) was developed to assess beliefs about romanticism, that can impact the formation and quality of romantic relationships. These beliefs can be assessed using four factors that represent the ideal romantic love, which are: One and only, Idealization, Love at first sight, and Love finds a way. This study sought evidence of validity for the RBS in a Brazilian context based on internal structure and relationships with the variables relationship satisfaction and personality (Big Five Factors and Emotional Investment). A total of 818 Brazilians with an average age of 30.7 years (SD= 14.1) responded to an online questionnaire, of which 73.2% were women. The scale showed satisfactory evidence of validity based on the internal structure and relation with other variables, and best fit to a second-order factor model explaining the four factors of the original scale. Positive correlations were found between the factors of RBS and personality factors Extraversion, Agreeableness and Consciousness, Relationship satisfaction and Emotional investment.

ABSTRACT
Abstract Research has shown that personality develops over time, generating changes and continuity in the pattern of functioning across the lifespan. We investigated the evidence of consistency in the ranking of personality traits over time. A group of 170 adults between the ages of 51 and 93 participated in the study (M = 69, SD = 9.05) and retrospectively answered the Big Five Inventory-2 and the Big Five Inventory. We performed test-retest correlation and the ANOVA procedure with repeated measures. We found that personality scores at 30-35 years of age are associated with the scores at age 70-80, indicating stability in the pattern of individual functioning in the long term. This research complements the few studies on personality development in Brazil.
Resumo Evidências indicam que a personalidade se desenvolve ao longo do tempo, gerando mudanças e continuidade no padrão de funcionamento ao longo da vida. Investigamos a evidência de consistência no ranqueamento dos traços de personalidade ao longo do tempo. Participaram 170 adultos, com idade entre 51 e 93 anos (M = 69; DP = 9,05), que responderam o Big Five Inventory-2 e a Big Five Inventory, retrospectivamente. Realizamos correlação teste-reteste e o procedimento ANOVA com medidas repetidas. Constatamos que os escores em personalidade aos 30-35 anos de idade estão associados com os escores aos 70-80 anos, indicando estabilidade no padrão de funcionamento em longo prazo. Esta pesquisa complementa os poucos estudos sobre o desenvolvimento da personalidade no Brasil.
ABSTRACT
1). La vida de Ludwig van Beethoven experimentó un cambio existencial al morir su hermano y dejar a su hijo Karl en tutoría compartida con su madre Johanna. 2). Casi sin haber tenido relación con su sobrino, se desencadena una necesidad emocional intensa e inesperada de convertirse en su único tutor, objetivo que consigue derrotando legalmente a su madre. 3). La relación Beethoven-Karl se desarrolla plagada de disputas, vigilancia, exigencias, control, como si el compositor viviera por vez primera lo que siempre se había negado, llegar a ser padre. 4). El intento de suicidio del sobrino le señala a Beethoven que convertirse en padre significa permitir que el hijo llegue a ser diferente a las arrogantes y desmesuradas ambiciones y expectativas personales, pero esta señal extrema fue insuficiente para hacerle entender que el otro siempre es un peligro porque muestra una verdad oculta intolerable y dolorosa del propio sí-mismo.
Ludwig van Beethoven's life underwent an existential change when his brother died and left his son Karl in shared tutorship with his mother Johanna. 2. Almost without having had any relationship with his nephew, an intense and unexpected emotional need to become his sole guardian is triggered, an objective that he achieves by legally defeating his mother. 3. The Beethoven-Karl relationship develops plagued by disputes, surveillance, demands, control, as if the composer were experiencing for the first time what he had always denied himself, becoming a father.4. The nephew's suicide attempt points out to Beethoven that becoming a father means allowing the son to become different from the arrogant and inordinate personal ambitions and expectations, but this extreme signal was insufficient to make him understand that the other is always a danger because it shows a hidden and painful truth of one´s own self.
ABSTRACT
La violencia contra los niños es una preocupación muy importante en el sistema de salud pública. El filicidio es un acto deliberado de una madre o un padre que mata a su propio hijo. El objetivo de este estudio es describir un caso de filicidio asociado a la presencia del Trastorno Límite de la Personalidad (TLP), analizando la evaluación de la imputabilidad criminal relacionada con este caso, utilizando el criterio biopsicológico. Medidas de protección a los niños deben ser ofrecidas de forma activa cuando los padres tienen estrés y falta de equilibrio emocional, y al mismo tiempo deben cuidar a los niños.
Violence against children is a very important concern in the public health system. Filicide is a deliberate act of a mother or father killing his own child. The aim of this study is to describe a case of filicide associated with the presence of borderline personality disorder, discussing the evaluation of criminal imputability related to this case, using the biopsychological criterion. Child protection measures should be actively offered when parents have stress and lack of emotional balance while needing to care for children.
ABSTRACT
Abstract Objective This investigation presents a comparison among students from public and private schools in specific variables of the Rorschach test, Comprehensive System. Method One hundred eighteen adolescents from the city of São Paulo participated in the study, aged 13-17 years, from public (N = 49) and private schools (N = 69). Mixed linear effects models were used to test the effect of school, controlled by sex, years of education (fixed effects), and evaluator (random effect). Results Private schools students presented higher values of R (p = 0.015, d = 0.47) and Complexity scores (p = 0.007, d = 0.53). After inserting Complexity as a fixed factor in the model, the only variable that remained significant was Xu% (p = 0.008, d = -0.52), lower in private schools students. Conclusion The small number of differences found in this study indicates, at least for this age range, a trend to equivalent performance when comparing private and public schools. Even though the Rorschach is a method of personality assessment, it is clear that it can also signalize information related to each group's personal experiences.
Resumo Objetivo O estudo apresenta um comparativo dos resultados do Rorschach - Sistema Compreensivo - entre estudantes de escolas públicas e privadas. Método Participaram da pesquisa 118 adolescentes da cidade de São Paulo, 49 de escolas públicas e 69 de escolas particulares, com idade entre 13-17 anos. Os efeitos da escola foram avaliados por modelos lineares mistos controlados por sexo, anos de estudo (fatores fixos) e aplicador (fator aleatório). Resultados As escolas particulares apresentaram maiores valores de R (p = 0,015, d = 0,47) e Complexidade (p = 0,007, d = 0,53). Quando Complexidade também foi inserida no modelo como fator fixo, a única variável que restou significativa foi Xu% (p = 0,008, d = -0,52), menor em escolas particulares. Conclusão Conclui-se que o pequeno número de diferenças indica pouca interferência da origem escolar nos resultados do Rorschach para esta faixa etária. Mesmo se tratando de um instrumento para avaliação de personalidade, foi possível sinalizar algumas informações relativas às experiências pessoais de cada grupo.
