RECURSOS DE NEGOCIACIÓN EN LA CONVERSACIÓN: COLETILLAS MODALES EN EL ESPAÑOL DE CHILE
(Universidad de los Lagos, 2023-12) Contreras Castro, Marco
Este artículo tiene como propósito central presentar los resultados de una investigación sobre el funcionamiento de las coletillas interrogativas en un corpus oral del español de Chile desde una perspectiva sistémico funcional del lenguaje. Las categorías de análisis interpersonal se derivan de los estratos semántico-discursivo y léxico-gramatical. En el estrato de los significados se han considerado la función de habla y la mercancía semiótica, mientras que en el estrato de la codificación los modos de cláusula y la ubicación de coletilla en la cláusula. Se concluye que la coletilla es un recurso productivo para la expresión de significados interpersonales en todas las funciones de habla. Se integra mayormente en movimientos que cumplen el rol de “dar”, en tanto que la principal materia de negociación es “información”. Dentro del sistema de MODO, se integran en posición final de cláusulas declarativas y en menor medida en cláusulas imperativas e interrogativas.
Neutrality in Spain and Chile from the perspective of mediators: A literature review
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023) Munuera Gómez, Pilar; Valdebenito Larenas, Caterine; Alemán Bracho, Carmen; Molina Cano, Jerónimo
This paper is based on the analysis of the importance given to neutrality in the intervention of mediators, with special emphasis on the legislation and codes of conduct followed by mediators in Spain and Chile. For this purpose, a review of the literature on neutrality has been carried out using various scientific databases and an analysis of the legislation in these countries. The aim of this analysis was to highlight the research carried out by mediation professionals on this issue and to propose possible solutions. Among the results achieved is the affirmation that neutrality is in the mediation process and not in the mediator. This reality is not reflected in ethical codes of conduct or in legislation. Therefore, it is proposed the need to elaborate a universal and accredited code of ethics, which would help to consolidate the current polyphony of voices on mediator neutrality in the countries where mediation is used. As mediation as a profession becomes more and more established, it is essential that the principle of neutrality be understood unambiguously. In contrast to the rules that appear in current legislation and in certain codes of conduct, mediators should not be subject to the constraints of achieving personal neutrality. © 2023 The Authors.

Instruments for Measuring Hedonic and Eudaimonic Well-Being of Adolescents in the Latin American School Contexts: a Systematic Review
(Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2025) Bravo-Sanzana, Mónica; Casas, Ferran; Rodríguez-Rivas, Matías E.; Oriol, Xavier; Varela, Jorge J.; Miranda, Rafael; Terán-Mendoza, Oscar
Well-being is crucial for understanding adolescent health and quality of life and is related to positive physical, emotional, and social indicators. This systematic review developed from PRISMA criteria sought to identify and evaluate instruments in Latin America to measure hedonic and eudaimonic well-being in adolescents. A total of 1737 articles were identified in the Web of Science (WOS), Scopus, ScieLO, and PsycINFO databases, with the search limited to scientific articles published after 2010. Of these, 45 met the inclusion criteria and were synthesized in this review. Most of the studies focused on hedonic well-being, especially life satisfaction, while eudaimonic well-being was less explored; in addition, some studies were identified that do not have a clear theoretical approach, and only two studies considered a multidimensional perspective of well-being. By way of conclusion, the diversity of instruments to assess well-being in Latin America is highlighted, and it is proposed that future research should incorporate solid theoretical models and a comprehensive understanding of adolescent well-being in the region; in this way, the present study provides a basis for future research that includes the application, design or validation of instruments with a comprehensive theoretical model of adolescent well-being in the Latin American context.
Intra-session reliability of knee flexion-extension muscle strength monitored using a functional electromechanical dynamometer in female soccer players
(Frontiers Media SA, 2025) Andrades-Ramírez, Oscar; Ulloa-Díaz, David; Castillo, Bryan Alfaro; Saavedra-Ibaca, Vanessa; Muñoz-Bustos, Gustavo; Chirosa-Ríos, Luis-Javier
Background: The aim of the study was to analyze the relative and absolute reliability of intra-session comparisons of three repetitions in a protocol for assessment peak muscle strength in a knee extension and flexion exercise in competitive female soccer players. Methods: The participants in this research are professional level female soccer players. Peak muscle strength was assessed with functional electromechanical dynamometry (FEMD) for the knee muscles with the following movements: knee flexion (FLE) and extension (EXT). Each movement was assessed at a speed of 0.4 m·s-1 unilaterally, recording peak muscle strength values in the concentric phase (CON) and an eccentric phase (ECC). Results: Null differences (ES < 0.19) were detected in the measurements of peak muscle strength of the extensors and flexors of the right and left knee in their concentric or eccentric phases. In the intra-set reliability measures, they reported acceptable absolute reliability (CV% < 9.71) and extremely high relative reliability (ICC = 0.92–0.98). Conclusion: In relation to the results of this study, it can be concluded that the FEMD presents a high relative and absolute intra-series reliability for the evaluation of muscle strength in knee extension and flexion in female soccer players. These reported antecedents may facilitate a more specific evaluation of the function of the muscles of the lower limbs.
Sports motivation in Chilean rugby players: impact of occupational status
(Federacion Espanola de Docentes de Educacion Fisica, 0025) De Souza Lima, Josivaldo; León-Rojas, Isidora; Muñoz-Strale, Catalina; Duclos-Bastias, Daniel b; Godoy-Cumillaf, Andrés; Giakoni-Ramírez, Frano
Introduction: Sports motivation plays a key role in long-term adherence and athletes' commitment. In the context of rugby, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation may vary depending on individual factors such as occupational status. Objective: To examine the relationship between motivation dimensions and sports adherence in Chilean rugby players, considering occupational status as a moderating factor. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 280 rugby players from 12 regions of Chile. The Sport Motivation Scale (SMS-28) was used to evaluate intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and amotivation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and Pearson correlations. Results: Intrinsic motivation for experiencing sensations had the highest average score, followed by intrinsic motivation for achieving things. Identified regulation was significantly higher among students and workers compared to unemployed participants (p = 0.050). Introjected regulation showed significant differences across occupational status (p = 0.001), with higher levels among workers. Amotivation was negatively associated with sports participation, although no significant differences were observed between occupational groups (p = 0.419). Conclusions: The findings highlight the importance of fostering intrinsic motivation to sustain sports participation in rugby players. Additionally, strengthening identified regulation may improve commitment, particularly among unemployed players. Reducing amotivation is crucial to prevent sports dropout. © 2025 Federacion Espanola de Docentes de Educacion Fisica. All rights reserved.
Parenthood during the COVID-19 pandemic: Post-traumatic growth amongst university students
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023) Harwood-Gross, Anna; Bergman, Yoav S.; Pat-Horenczyk, Ruth; Schiff, Miriam; Benbenishty, Rami
This study sought to investigate a positive dimension of coping with the COVID-19 pandemic, that of post-traumatic growth (PTG). This study investigated coping difficulties and PTG amongst parent and nonparent students in Israeli Universities. A total of 4022 parents (3648 Jews and 374 Palestinian-Arab Citizens [PACs]) and 14,651 nonparents (12,010 Jews and 2641 PACs) completed measures of coping, social support and PTG. Parents demonstrated significantly higher levels of coping and PTG. Amongst parents, fathers coped slightly better than mothers; however, while Jewish mothers demonstrated greater PTG than Jewish fathers, PAC fathers had significantly greater PTG than both PAC mothers and Jewish parents. These findings, while specific to COVID-19, indicate that PTG should be studied in greater depth in different ethnic and minority groups in order to develop enhanced understanding and facilitate promotion of post-traumatic growth, in addition to the prevention of COVID-19-related distress. © 2022 The Authors.

Children's perceptions of their participation rights context when living in residential care and its relationship with their subjective well-being
(Elsevier Ltd, 2025-04) Casas, Ferran; Ditzel, Ana Loreto
Background: Participation rights of children in residential care have not been frequently explored despite the positive effects of participation on their subjective well-being (SWB). Objective: To explore the relationship of six rights-related perceptions with the SWB of children and adolescents in residential care. Participants and setting: N = 268, 9–19-year-olds living in residential care. Methods: Five rights-related perceptions were analysed according to scores in two cognitive and two affective SWB scales, through descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis. Results: The more children feel adults at home and at school listen to them and take their say into account, the more they feel they are treated fairly by these adults, and the more they perceive adults in general in their country respect children's rights, the higher are their observed SWB scores. The majority rights-related perceptions showed significant effects on positive SWB indicators. However, only they believe that adults in general in their country respect children's rights displayed effects on Negative Affect. Girls' SWB showed lower scores than boys', and girls' rights-related perceptions displayed more effects on their SWB than boys'. Conclusions: There are important percentages of children in residential care who do not feel they are able to participate in aspects of their own lives that directly affect them and their SWB. Children in residential care display lower scores in all the positive measures, especially girls and exceptionally higher scores in the negative affect than the overall Chilean children's population.
Isotemporal substitution of sedentary time with different physical activity intensities and sleep in obesity parameters across eight latin American countries
(Accelerometry; Isotemporal substitution; Obesity; Physical activity; Sedentary behavior; Sleep, 0025) de Victo, Eduardo Rossato; Sales, Diego; Christofaro, Diego G. D.; Fisberg, Mauro; Kovalskys, Irina f; del Val Martín, Pablo; Ferrari, Gerson
This study aimed to examine the associations between substituting sedentary time (ST) with physical activity and sleep with obesity parameters in adults from eight Latin American countries. The sample consisted of 2173 adults aged 18–65 years. Physical activity, ST and sleep were objectively measured using accelerometers. The parameters of obesity were defined using body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). Regression analyses were conducted for isotemporal analysis of the association between substituting 30 min/day of ST with light physical activity (LPA), moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and sleep in relation to BMI and WC. Substituting light physical activity with higher intensity was also analyzed. Substituting 30 min/day of ST with MVPA was significantly associated with lower odds of a higher BMI (OR: 0.993, 95%CI 0.990–0.998) and WC (OR: 0.998, 95%CI 0.998–0.999). Conversely, substituting ST with LPA did not show a significant impact on obesity parameters. However, the substitution of 30 min/day of LPA with MVPA was also associated with lower odds of a higher BMI (OR: 0.993, 95%CI 0.989–0.997). The results highlight the importance of replacing ST and increasing the intensity of physical activity as an effective strategy for preventing and managing obesity in Latin America. © The Author(s) 2025.
Modern Handball: A Dynamic System, Orderly Chaotic
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 0025) Espoz, Sebastian; Hinojosa-Torres, Claudio
1) Background: Handball is conceptualized as a complex dynamic system characterized by emergent behaviors, non-linearity, attractors, and self-organization, influenced by players’ interactions, environmental conditions, and tactical elements. This perspective emphasizes the importance of communication, adaptive strategies, and modern teaching methods like Non-linear Pedagogy for improving technical-tactical behaviors, advocating for a multidisciplinary approach to deepen its understanding. Thus, this narrative review aims to explore how modern theories and approaches can be integrated to provide a deeper understanding of handball’s complexity from a broad and multidisciplinary perspective. (2) Methods: A narrative review approach was employed to integrate key concepts such as chaos theory, self-organization, and non-linear pedagogy as they apply to the game’s technical-tactical dynamics. The methodology involved a comprehensive literature review to identify how emergent perceptual and social interactions influence collective performance. (3) Results: Findings indicate that team performance is not solely dependent on individual skills but on their capacity for synchronization, adaptation, and self-organization in response to competitive demands. Communication and internal cohesion emerged as critical factors for adjustment and autonomous decision-making, framed within Luhmann’s social systems theory. (4) Conclusions: The conclusions suggest that training methodologies should incorporate non-linear approaches that promote self-organization, adaptability, and player autonomy. This multidisciplinary perspective offers a deeper understanding of handball and highlights its applicability to other team sports, maximizing performance through an integrative analysis of social, philosophical, and communicative components. © 2025 by the authors.
Analysis of speeds in the 400-meter hurdles and gender differences: A study from the Paris 2024 Olympics
(Asociacion Espanola de Analisis del Rendimiento Deportivo, 0025) de Souza-Lima, Josivaldo; Giakoni-Ramírez, Frano; Muñoz-Strale, Catalina; Yáñez-Sepúlveda, Rodrigo; Duclos-Bastias, Daniel; Cortés-Roco, Guillermo; Bonilla, Diego A.; Olivares-Arancibia, Jorge; Valdivia-Moral, Pedro
Background/objectives. This study aims to analyse the speed differences between men and women in the 400 meters during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Average speeds in each segment of the race were evaluated, highlighting gender variations and performance across the different rounds of the competition. Methods. A descriptive observational study was conducted using data from 208 athletes (50% women). Average speeds per 50-meter segments were analysed across all rounds (heats, semifinals, and final), applying Student's t-tests to compare results between genders. The significance level was set at p <.05. Results. The average speeds showed significant differences between sexes in all segments of the race (p <.05). The largest difference was observed in the first 150 meters, where men outpaced women by a margin of 0.97 km/h. By 250 meters, the difference decreased to 0.43 km/h. In the final rounds, the winners reached maximum speeds of 36.87 km/h (men) and 32.48 km/h (women). Conclusion. Men exhibit a biomechanical advantage in the race's early stages, while both sexes strategically adjust their pacing in the final rounds. These findings suggest that gender differences in performance are linked to both physiological and biomechanical fact ors. © 2025 ARD Asociación Española
Information Literacy in Teacher Training: A Systematic Literature Review
(Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, 0025) Barbosa-Chacón, Jorge Winston; Martínez-Líbano, Jonathan; Mendoza Lira, Michelle
The development of information literacy, referring to access, evaluation and use of information, has a significant role in teacher training. In this respect, we share a study whose objective was to analyze aspects of the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of information literacy research in teacher training, a challenge undertaken from a 2013-2023 systematic review of 24 Scopus and Web of Science articles. The results reveal the prevalence of the quantitative approach. Also, research objectives were framed into four study axes: evaluation, training, the relationship with other competencies, and other actors. © 2025, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.

Association of muscular strength and targeted proteomics involved in brain health in children with overweight/obesity
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023-09) Olvera-Rojas, Marcos; Plaza-Florido, Abel; Solis-Urra, Patricio; Rodriguez-Ayllon, María; Toval, Angel; Esteban-Cornejo, Irene; Ortega, Francisco B.
Muscular strength has been positively associated with better brain health indicators during childhood obesity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the positive impact of muscular strength in brain health are poorly understood. We aimed to study the association of muscular strength with neurology-related circulating proteins in plasma in children with overweight/obesity and to explore the role of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) as a confounder. The participants were 86 Caucasian children (10.1 ± 1.1 years old; 41% girls) from the ActiveBrains project. Muscular strength was measured by field and laboratory tests. CRF was assessed with an incremental treadmill test. Olink's technology was used to quantify 92 neurology-related proteins in plasma. Protein–protein interactions were computed using the STRING website. Muscular strength was positively associated with 12 proteins (BetaNGF, CDH6, CLEC10A, CLM1, FcRL2, HAGH, IL12, LAIR2, MSR1, SCARB2, SMOC2, and TNFRSF12A), and negatively associated with 12 proteins (CLEC1B, CTSC, CTSS, gal-8, GCP5, NAAA, NrCAM, NTRK2, PLXNB3, RSPO1, sFRP3, and THY1). After adjustment for CRF, muscular strength was positively associated with eight proteins (BetaNGF, CDH6, CLEC10A, FcRL2, LAIR2, MSR1, SCARB2, and TNFRSF12A) and negatively associated with two proteins (gal-8 and NrCAM). After applying FDR correction, only CLEC10A remained statistically significant. In conclusion, muscular strength was associated with blood circulating proteins involved in several biological processes, particularly anti-inflammatory response, lipid metabolism, beta amyloid clearance, and neuronal action potential propagation. More powered studies are warranted in pediatric populations to contrast or confirm our findings. © 2023 The Authors.

Validation of the Chilean perceived physical literacy instrument (Ch-PPLI) questionnaire in Chilean girls, boys and adolescents between 10 and 18 years old
(Federacion Espanola de Docentes de Educacion Fisica, 0025) Inostroza-Mondaca, Mauricio; Ramírez-Campillo, Rodrigo; García-Hermoso, Antonio; Pardo Tamayo, Carolina; Muñoz-Hinrichsen, Fernando
Introduction: Motor literacy promotes participation and maintenance of adequate levels of physical activity throughout the life cycle, reduces sedentary behavior, and improves health markers and quality of life in children and adolescents (NNA). Therefore, valid and reliable instruments are required to determine motor literacy in NNA). Objective: To examine the validity and reliability of the "Chilean Perceived Physical Literacy Instrument" (Ch-PPLI) questionnaire in Chilean children and adolescents aged 10 to 18. Methodology: A process of cultural adaptation and content validation was developed with three experts using the Delphi methodology, content validation coefficient, and construct validation by exploratory factor analysis (EFA), with female participants (n=134; 13.8±2.05 years) and male participants (n=146; 14.4±2.17 years). Results: The expert validation presented content validation coefficients between 0.81 and 0.94 (i.e., “good” to “excellent”). The model fit measures presented “satisfactory” values (Root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA=0.07; p<0.001]). The EFA grouped items into one factor, presenting “high” reliability values (α=0.822 and ω=0.829). In items 1 to 5 and the total Ch-PPLI, boys presented higher values than girls (all p<0.05). In items 2 to 5, 7, 9, and the total Ch-PPLI, the active population (physical activity level questionnaire >5 points) presented higher values versus the physically inactive population (all p<0.05).Discussion: Compare the research results with other findings from the literature. Conclusions: The Ch-PPLI showed validity and reliability in Chilean children from 10 to 18 years old. The Ch-PPLI identified differences in motor literacy between men and women and between physically active and inactive individuals. © 2025 Federacion Espanola de Docentes de Educacion Fisica.

Exploring Job Satisfaction in the Platform Economy: A Multidimensional Study of Mobile Digital Platform Workers in Chile
(Sustainability (Switzerland), Volume 17, Issue 2January 2025 Article number 532, 2025) Lay-Raby, Nelson; Cea-Gonzalez, Pablo; de la Fuente-Mella, Hanns; Ríos-Vásquez, Gonzalo c
This study examines job satisfaction among mobile digital platform workers in Chile, addressing the gap in understanding the interplay between autonomy, social support, and technology in the platform economy. It explores how these factors shape job satisfaction through the following research question: How do autonomy, social support, and technological factors influence job satisfaction in the platform economy? Using a quantitative methodology, 398 platform workers from three Chilean regions participated in a survey, with data analyzed via logistic regression models to evaluate the impact of sociodemographic and psychological variables. The findings highlight that autonomy and social support significantly enhance job satisfaction, while technological usability and transformation are pivotal for positive work experiences. The study concludes that fostering worker autonomy, robust support systems, and user-friendly technologies is critical for improving job satisfaction in the gig economy. These insights contribute to the academic literature and inform strategies for policymakers and platform operators, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches to enhance worker well-being and organizational outcomes. © 2025 by the authors
University students' psychological distress during the COVID-19 pandemic: A structural equation model of the role of resource loss and gain
(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023-09) Kelada, Lauren; Schiff, Miriam; Gilbar, Ohad; Pat-Horenczyk, Ruth; Benbenishty, Rami
Using the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory, we aimed to determine whether university students' loss and gain in resources during the pandemic mediated the relationships between COVID-19 exposure/concern and depression and anxiety. In 2021, 7013 Israeli university students completed online questionnaires. We assessed the data using structural equation modeling. We found that resource loss was directly related to concern (β = 0.32, p < 0.001). Depression and anxiety were both directly related to loss of resources (depression: β = 0.75, p < 0.001; anxiety: β = 0.69, p < 0.001) and concern (depression: β = 0.06, p < 0.001; anxiety: β = 0.12, p < 0.001). Resource loss had an indirect effect on the relationships between concern and depression (β = 0.24, p < 0.001) and concern and anxiety (β = 0.22, p < 0.001). COR theory may help explain the mechanisms behind university students' mental health during the pandemic and provides a framework to better understand preparedness for future pandemics, epidemics, and major disasters. Governments and universities should help prevent the loss of resources during future emergencies. © 2023 The Authors. Journal of Community Psychology published by Wiley Periodicals LLC.
Barriers and Facilitators to Lead an Inclusive School:The Case of Chile
(Revista de Investigacion Educativa, Volume 432025, 2025) Valdés, René
Exercising inclusive leadership is a complex task in a school system where educational quality comes down primarily to the performance of schools on standardized tests. The objective of this article is to understand the barriers and facilitators that school directors, executive boards and management teams point out and face to advance in inclusion and attention to diversity. To respond to the objective, the results of seven case studies with an ethnographic approach carried out between 2016 and 2021 in Chilean schools with an inclusive seal were systematized. The main findings show that, from the perspective of school leaders, inclusion is a state affair and a specific concern on the part of the Ministry of Education. However, they highlight important barriers to advance as regards inclusion such as: lack of professional training in inclusion, low student participation and the pre-eminence of standardized tests that affect inclusive processes. Facilitators are also recognized, such as: openness to change, positive attitude towards difference and the importance of collaborative work. The results allow us to discuss the contrasts between inclusion and standardization and to propose a set of recommendations for schools and educational policies. © 2025 Universidad de Murcia.

Adaptation of the Social Well-being Scale for Teachers and School Staff
(Revista de Psicologia (Peru), Volume 43, Issue 1, Pages 29 - 522025, 2025) Bilbao, Marian; López, Verónica; Torres-Vallejos, Javier; Ascorra, Paula; Páez, Darío e
Social well-being is the assessment of social functioning, which plays a key role in mental health. In the school context, teachers and school staff can promote students’ well-being, but it is related to their own. To assess their social well-being, the Keyes social well-being scale was adapted to the school context. Psychometric properties were analyzed in 899 teachers and school staff in Valparaíso, Chile. The results suggest that 22 items are suitable for use, showing good fit to the data. Smaller school size and school participation are associated with higher social well-being. The adapted scale can be a useful tool to measure socioaffective variables of adults in the school community. © 2025 Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru. All rights reserved
Reasons to practice physical activity in ecuadorian university students
(Retos, Volume 62, Pages 1 - 9January 2025, 2025) León-Reyes, Borys; Nuñez, León Arguello; Herrera, Yosbanys Roque; Cresp-Barria, Mauricio; Souza-Lima, Josivaldo; Galeano-Rojas, Dilan
The aim of the present study was to analyze the reasons for practicing PA among university students in the Ecuadorian context, determine the differences according to sex and work-study compatibility, establish the association between the reasons for practicing PA, and estimate the predictive value of sex, age, and work-study compatibility on the reasons for practicing PA. The sample consisted of 1412 university students (21.2 ± 3.5 years), 513 men (36.3%) and 899 women (63.7%). The instrument used for data collection was the Goals in Exercise Content Questionnaire. The Mann-Whitney U test, Spearman's correlation coefficient and a linear regression analysis were used to analyze the results. The main findings show that there are statistically significant differences between men and women in the reasons of social affiliation, health direction, social recognition and skill development. Also, statistical differences are observed between women who do or do not combine study and work in the reasons of social affiliation, social recognition and skill development. On the other hand, the main motivation for PA is health, while the motive that least encourages the practice of PA is social recognition. Finally, in the regression analysis, sex presented a significant predictive value in the motives analyzed. Therefore, the interests of Ecuadorian students are revealed, and key information is obtained to improve and increase the levels and adherence to PA in order to contribute to a more physically active life in the university population. © 2025 Federacion Espanola de Docentes de Educacion Fisica.

A 12-Year Population-Based Analysis of Victimization and Climate Trends in Israeli Arab and Jewish Elementary Schools
(Journal of School Violence, Volume 24, Issue 1, Pages 21 - 462025, 2025) Benbenishty, Rami; Astor, Ron Avi; Shemesh, Michal; Avital, Dana; Raz, Tal; Roziner, Ilan
The study aims to examine changes over time in school victimization and climate in Israel, and whether these changes varied between Jewish and Arab schools and schools with different SES. A secondary analysis of the Ministry of Education database of structured student surveys regarding victimization and climate, was conducted during 2008–2019. All students in grades 5–6 were surveyed. The number of schools ranged between 751 and 1,189 (M = 983, SD = 166.3); 73.7% were Jewish schools, and 26.3% were Arab. Peer victimization dropped from 14.95 in 2008 to 7.97 in 2019 (β = -.39). All climate aspects positively increased. The highest improvements were in feeling unsafe (β = -.28). Reductions in victimization and progress in climate were the strongest among students from Arab schools and schools with lower SES. The implications for policy and future research are discussed. © 2024 The Author(s). Published with license by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
Subjective Well-being, Parental Figures, and Quality of Family Relations: A Study of the International Questionnaire on Child Welfare among Chilean 12-year-olds
(Child Indicators Research, 2025, 2025) Vallejo-Correa, Valentina; Oyanedel, Juan C.; Cortés, Francisca Pérez c
This article studies the importance of parental figures’ presence and family relationship quality in the construction of subjective child well-being, which is a protective factor for mental health. The BMSLSS (Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale) questionnaire was applied to a random sample of 827 boys and girls enrolled in seventh grade, from the regions of Valparaíso, Concepción and Santiago, Chile. Participants of both genders reported high levels of well-being. The majority of them live in a single home (89.1%), with an average of three caregivers and two family economic providers. We also found positive and significant associations between the presence of parental figures and well-being. Family relationship quality is a variable which also significantly explains well-being levels when children live in a single house. These results suggest that it is necessary to explore intra-family attachment characteristics in order to identify and enhance family settings, as these have a significant effect on children’ well-being. © The Author(s) 2025.
