    Psychosocial factors, perceived risk and driving in a hostile environment: driving through tunnels
    (2008-02-22) Arias Orduña, Ana V.; Mayordomo López, Sonia; Martínez Rubio, José Luis; Fernández Sedano, Iciar; Magallares Sanjuan, Alejandro
    A large part of the research on risk in driving has been related to the consumption of alcohol and other substances. However, few studies have analysed risk behaviour in relation to road infrastructure. It took the dramatic accident in the Mont Blanc tunnel to highlight the lack of knowledge about the human factor involved in tunnel accidents and about the factors affecting emergency situations in such settings. This study compares drivers’ perceptions and emotions in relation to driving in tunnels with those provoked by driving on normal roads in the open-air. Furthermore, we explore the factors relevant to risk perception and risk behaviour in tunnels. A total of 458 drivers from Madrid (Spain) responded to a questionnaire on these aspects. The results indicate that tunnels provoke unpleasant feelings and greater perception of risk than roads open to the sky. In spite of these feelings and perceptions, participants drive riskily in tunnels. In this study, we analyse the factors related to perception of risk and driving in tunnels.

    Predictors of Social Distance Toward People with Obesity: The Role of Allophilia
    (Ubiquity Press, 2017-05-02) Magallares Sanjuan, Alejandro
    Antifat attitudes refer to the prejudicial assumption of personality characteristics based on a visual assessment of a person with obesity. Allophilia may be defined as the positive attitudes toward different out-groups, including people with obesity. In this study, conducted with 448 participants, it is analyzed whether allophilia, germ aversion, physical disgust, social dominance orientation, perceived controllability of weight, and fear of gaining weight play a central role in explaining the individual differences that exist in social distance toward individuals with obesity. Results showed a negative correlation between the different subscales of allophilia (affection, comfort, kinship, engagement, and enthusiasm) and social distance. Furthermore, a positive relationship between social distance and germ aversion, social dominance orientation, perceived controllability of weight, and fear of gaining weight was found. Moreover, the regression analyses conducted showed that comfort was the best negative predictor of social distance toward individuals with obesity. Finally, the results are discussed in the frame of antifat attitudes literature, suggesting new ways to reduce this pervasive stigma.

    Spanish adaptation of the Patient Health Engagement scale (S.PHE-s)in patients with chronic diseases
    (Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos del Principado de Asturias, 2017-04-21) Graffigna, Guendalina; Barello, Serena; Bonanomi, Andrea; Lozza, Edoardo; Magallares Sanjuan, Alejandro
    Adaptación española de la escala Patient Health Engagement (S.PHE-s) en pacientes con enfermedades crónicas. Antecedentes: la escala Patient Health Engagement es un instrumento construido en base a la experiencia y preferencias de pacientes con enfermedades crónicas en lo que respecta a su compromiso con el tratamiento que reciben. Objetivos: el objetivo del presente estudio fue adaptar al castellano la escala Patient Health Engagement (S.PHE-s) siguiendo las directrices de las adaptaciones transculturales. Método: la muestra estuvo compuesta de 413 pacientes con diferentes enfermedades crónicas. Resultados: el análisis factorial confi rmatorio mostró un modelo unifactorial que correspondía a la estructura propuesta por los autores originales. La estructura factorial era invariante por género. Además, el modelo Rasch realizado puso de manifi esto la unidimensionalidad de la escala. Además, los coefi cientes de correlación policóricos eran superiores a .60. El Alpha Ordinal de la escala fue de .85. Finalmente, se encontró que la S.PHE-s estaba positivamente relacionada con la satisfacción con la vida, el afecto positivo y la adherencia al tratamiento, y negativamente con el afecto negativo, la depresión y la ansiedad. Conclusiones: a la luz de estos resultados se puede concluir que la S.PHE-s tiene unas propiedades psicométricas adecuadas y que puede ser usada por la comunidad científi ca hispanohablante para medir el compromiso de los pacientes.
