While many women describe these experiences as humiliating or disgusting, others perceive them as harmless or even flattering. Building on a qualitative pilot study (N = 92 women participants), we investigated how women evaluate and emotionally react to unsolicited genital images, and how these responses are influenced by prior sexual context and myths about cyber-sexual violence. Spanish women participants (N = 218; 2025) reported their acceptance of myths about cyber-sexual violence and evaluated a hypothetical incident of receiving an unsolicited genital image with the sexual context manipulated in a between-participants design. Results showed that women evaluated the incidents less positively and exhibited more anxiety, anger-hostility, and sadness, and less happiness and fewer feelings of power after exposure to both incidents of unsolicited genital images. Importantly, women with a higher acceptance of myths about cyber-sexual violence evaluated the incidents more positively, which in turn was associated with more positive and fewer negative feelings when the woman previously showed sexual interest toward the perpetrator (vs. no sexual interest or the control condition). These findings highlight the need for interventions that challenge these myths, empowering women to resist pressures to normalize such behaviors.

Objetivo: comprobar cuáles son las principales variables asociadas al estigma en futuros profesionales de la salud. Metodología: Participaron 1,125 estudiantes universitarios de diferentes grados de ciencias de la salud de la Universidad de Granada, que cumplimentaron voluntariamente el Attribution Questionnaire (AQ-27) Corrigan et al. (2003).Resultados: variables como la experiencia directa con la enfermedad mental (contacto con personas con trastornos mentales y sufrir un trastorno mental), recibir formación al respecto e interés por esta especialización, se relacionan con actitudes más positivas hacia los trastornos mentales. Las mujeres presentaron actitudes menos estigmatizantes que los hombres.Conclusiones: estos datos apoyan medidas como promover el contacto directo de los estudiantes de ciencias de la salud con pacientes con problemas de salud mental para favorecer actitudes menos estigmatizantes.; Stigma towards mental disorders is a problem that has a very negative impact on the lives of those who suffer from psychological problems, especially when it comes from healthcare professionals. Objective: To determine the main variables associated with stigma in future healthcare professionals. Methodology: 1,125 university students from different healthcare degrees at the University of Granada participated and voluntarily completed the Attribution Questionnaire (AQ-27) by Corrigan et al. (2003).Results: Variables such as direct experience with mental illness (contact with people with mental disorders and suffering from a mental disorder), receiving training on the subject and interest in this specialization, are related to more positive attitudes towards mental disorders. Women presented less stigmatizing attitudes than men.Conclusions: These data support measures such as promoting direct contact of health students with patients with mental health problems to foster less stigmatizing attitudes. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/110118 Training to deal with distractions and conflicting situations in activities of daily living after traumatic brain injury (TBI): Preliminary evidence from a single-case experimental design study Salazar-Frías, Daniel; Rodríguez-Bailón, María; Ricchetti, Giorgia; Navarro-Egido, Alba; Santos Roig, Macarena De Los; Funes Molina, María Jesús This study investigated the impact of an occupation-based intervention targeting executive and metacognitive functions to improve participants’ daily performance after traumatic brain injury (TBI). The intervention was designed to challenge participants with activities that require the management of multiple distracting and conflicting situations. Participants receive structured online and offline feedback on their performance, focusing on how to handle distracting and conflicting situations they previously failed and solved (i.e., metacognitive training). This study used a changing-criterion design by increasing the level of executive requirements across each session. A participant with TBI was trained to complete two significant activities (i.e., making a sandwich and setting the table). We found a significant reduction in errors made and addressed through the feedback sessions in post-intervention performance compared with baseline. These improvements were observed along with the intervention sessions, with most of the errors addressed in prior intervention sessions being successfully corrected in the following sessions and generalized to different contexts (i.e., near transfer) and to an untrained task (i.e., far transfer). Several outcomes were maintained one month after completing the intervention. Based on these findings, the present intervention shows promising results as an effective tool to address executive and metacognitive deficits after TBI.

Consequently, adolescents have a greater risk of problematic smartphone use (PSU). The current study aimed to examine the EF in adolescents with and without PSU. The participants included 110 students (44.5% males) ranging in age from 13 to 18 years (M = 15.77; SD = 1.84). They completed a PSU scale and a set of tasks that assess the components of the EF system. Parents were also asked to evaluate their children’s EF using a behaviour rating inventory. We found significant differences between problematic and non-problematic smartphone users on parent-report measures but not on performance-based measures. These results indicate that adolescents with PSU may show greater difficulties in regulating their own behaviour and emotional responses, but they can manage their cognitive processes effectively. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/106005 Adaptation and validation of the spanish version of the moral attentiveness scale Carrascal-Caputto, Belén; Galván-Hernández, Danna; Benítez Baena, Isabel The present study adapted and validated Reynolds' (2008) Moral Attentiveness Scale (MAS) for use in Spanish populations (MAS-S). The adaptation process employed a committee approach to ensure linguistic and cultural appropriateness. The validation study (N = 428) included exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The results supported the original two-factor structure, explaining 64.2 % of the variance (χ253 = 165, p < .001; CFI = 0.93; TLI = 0.91; RMSEA = 0.10). Reliability indices were high (Cronbach's α > 0.90). Convergent and discriminant validity evidence is provided through positive correlations between MAS-S dimensions and theoretically related constructs such as Social Justice Orientation and Empathic Concern and Personal Distress, while no significant associations were found with sacrificial moral dilemmas. These findings establish the MAS-S as a reliable and valid instrument for assessing moral attentiveness in Spanish contexts, with implications for advancing theoretical and practical research in moral psychology.
