Eating Pathology in adolescents: Effects of Attachment and Emotion Regulation. The aim of the present work is to explore associations between eating pathology (EP), emotion regulation (ER) and attachment in a non-clinical adolescent sample; and whether insecure attachment and difficulties in emotion regulation explain EP. A sample of 485 adolescents (240 females) aged 12-18, completed the EDI-2, DERS and EPERIC questionnaires. Sex differences were analyzed. Sex differences in EP level occur since the age of 14-15. Associations with high effect sizes between these three constructs were found. It is possible to predict EP from difficulties in emotion regulation and insecure attachment features (R2 Nagelkerke= .305 in females, and .236 in males). EP shows strong association with fear of rejection or abandonment in females and with preference for independence in males. Conclusions. There are sex differences on the associations between these three constructs considered in the present study and in EP explanation too. This has implications in prevention (AU)

Prevalencia del maltrato de pareja contra las mujeres / Prevalence of intimate partner violence against women

Se ha elaborado una tipología del maltrato y una encuesta inspirándonos en los planteamientos de Goffman (1971) y en los conceptos de cara positiva y cara negativa de Brown y Levinson (1987), sistematizados por Kerbrat-Orecchioni (1992). Se ha realizado un muestreo estratificado según la zona de residencia sobre una población de unas 450.000 mujeres y se entrevistó a 421 mujeres sobre sus experiencias respecto al maltrato en parejas. Los resultados del estudio indican que el 20,2% de la población femenina ha sufrido maltratos a manos de su pareja y que el 6,2% de las mujeres han sufrido maltrato durante el último año

We have elaborated an Abuse Typology and a survey research based on Goffman’s approach (1971) and on Brown and Levinson’s (1987) concepts of positive and negative face, as systematized by Kerbrat-Orecchioni (1992). A stratified sampling according to the zone of residence upon a population of 450.000 women has been made, and 421 women were interviewed with regard to their experience of abuse in couple relationships. The results of the study indicate that 20.2 % of the population have suffered or are suffering abuse by their partner, with a maximum error of 4.3%. Moreover 6.2% of the women have suffered abuse during the year previous to the interview
