Las teorías científicas permiten captar relaciones complejas, claves para entender los problemas del mundo real, y facilitan la identificación de los componentes más importantes implicados en la explicación de tales problemas, con el fin de poder predecirlos en el futuro. El comportamiento ambiental, es abordado desde las denominadas teorías de largo alcance, es decir, marcos conceptuales como el conductismo, la psicología evolucionista y el cognitivismo, que sirven para explicar cualquier tipo de comportamiento, así como por teorías más específicas centradas en analizar los comportamientos con impacto ambiental, entre las que se encuentran los escenarios de conducta, la teoría de las affordances, y las teorías sobre la relación persona-ambiente. En este trabajo se expone resumidamente cada uno de estos planteamientos teóricos junto a sus principales modelos explicativos; The aim of this paper is to present a brief review of the most relevant theories used to explain pro-environmental behavior. Scientific theories allow us to capture complex relationships, key to understanding real-world problems, and they facilitate the identification of the most important components involved in the explanation of these problems, in order to predict them in the future. Environmental behavior is approached based on what are known as long-range theories, that is, conceptual frameworks such as behaviorism, evolutionary psychology, and cognitivism, which explain any type of behavior, as well as more specific theories focused on analyzing behaviors with environmental impact, including behavioral settings theory, the theory of affordances, and theories about the person-environment relationship. This paper summarizes each of these theoretical approaches together with their main explanatory models. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/57462 https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54411 VALUES TOWARD THE INFIRMARY PERSONNEL’S WORK Aguilar-Luzón, María del Carmen; García-Martínez, Antonia; Calvo Salguero, Antonia The modern administration of the services of health of the community makes necessary readjustments and modifications of the organizational culture to achieve a bigger cohesion of the work teams that rebounds positively in the users of these services. In this sense, one of the factors to keep in mind, for their implications in the climate and in the development of the objectives of the organization, it would be the consistency among the values toward the work of supervisors and professionals to their position. On this base, the present work thinks about as objectives, on one hand, to identify the profile of values in the work that present the supervisors and its respective teams of nurses and, for other, to check if consistency exists among the profiles of values of both groups. For it, it has been selected a sample of 53 nurses and 4 supervisors of four different areas from infirmary of a hospital of the Andalusian community. All they answered the questionnaire of work values EVAT-30. The obtained results indicate that supervisors and nurses establish hierarchies of similar values and, therefore, with a high consistency grade. On the other hand, the dimensions of superior order more valued by both groups they have been those of Self-Enhancement and Conservation. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54411 https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54410 PERCEIVED BENEFITS AND COSTS OF ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE:DIFFERENCES BY ADULT ATTACHMENT STYLE García Martínez, José Miguel Ángel; Monteoliva Sánchez, Adelaida; Calvo Salguero, Antonia Bowlby’s attachment theory suggested that the attachment experiences of early childhood influence adult approaches to close relationships. As a result of these experiences, the child develops typical mental schemas or internal working models. The aim of this study was to analyze how young people with different attachment styles perceive the benefits and costs involved in spending as much time as possible with their partner, and to determine whether their beliefs reflect the internal working models associated with their attachment style. A sample of 1,539 university students responded to the Relationship Questionnaire (Bartholomew & Horowith, 1991), and to a questionnaire about behavioral beliefs (perceived benefits and costs). Results show that young people with different attachment styles hold different beliefs about the consequences derived from engaging in a specific behavior in romantic relationships. Secure and preoccupied individuals perceived more benefits than costs associated with the behavior, whereas dismissing and fearful individuals perceived more costs than benefits. Furthermore, secure and preoccupied individuals rated those behavioral consequences leading to enhanced intimacy or closeness more positively than avoidant individuals, whereas dismissing individuals rated more negatively those consequences that involved a loss of independence. These results confirm that a congruity exists between the beliefs associated with the behavior studied and the internal working models related to each adult attachment style. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54410 https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54409 WORK FAMILY AND FAMILY WORK CONFLICT: DOES INTRINSIC, EXTRINSIC SATISFACTION MEDIATE THE PREDICTION OF GENERAL JOB SATISFACTION? Calvo Salguero, Antonia; Salinas-Martínez, José María; Carrasco-González, Ana María The objective of this study is to analyze the mediating role of intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction in the relationship between the 2 dimensions of work–family conflict—family interfering with work (FIW) and work interfering with family (WIF)—and general job satisfaction. Step-by-step hierarchical regression analyses were carried out on a sample of 151 men and women from a Spanish public organization. The results confirmed the mediating role of intrinsic job satisfaction in the case of FIW. This highlights the importance of taking into account the level of satisfaction with the intrinsic facets of one’s job as a measure for understanding why FIW has a negative impact on general job satisfaction. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54409 https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54408 Differences Between and Within Genders in Gender Role Orientation According to Age and Level of Education Calvo Salguero, Antonia; García-Martínez, José Miguel Ángel; Monteoliva Sánchez, Adelaida This study analyses the masculinity and femininity in a Spanish simple made upof 164 adult workers (88menand 76 women). To be specific, the objective was to demonstrate whether age and level of education were related to differences in masculinity and femininity, both when comparing between the two genders and when the comparisons are made within the same gender. The results indicated that the two variables predicted differences in women, but not in men. There were only differences between genders in masculinity and femininity between the ages of 20 and 39, and when the level of education is low. The results appear to support Hofstede’s hypothesis that there are fewer differences between genders in gender role orientation in feminine countries. https://hdl.handle.net/10481/54408
