The clinical sample was of 33 adolescents aged 12-17 years (M =15.15, ST=1.67). The results indicated that emotional suppression was used more by females, while the coping strategies of religion and behavioral disengagement were used more by males. Participants from the interior of the country showed higher values in PPF than those from the city, and religious belief was more highly related with AI and ER. A linear regression study showed that, although the three independent variables predict the dependent variable, the best predictor is PPF, followed by ER and CS. The t value of the stepwise linear regression model indicated a significance of .02.

Este estudio se propuso analizar si existe relación entre las variables: Funcionamiento Psicológico Positivo (FPP), Regulación Emocional (RE) y Estrategias de Afrontamiento (EA) con relación a la Adaptación a la Enfermedad (AD); y cuál de estas variables es el mejor predictor de la adaptación en adolescentes en tratamiento por cáncer. Se analizó una muestra clínica de 33 adolescentes con edades comprendidas entre 12 - 17 años (M = 15). Los resultados indicaron que la supresión emocional fue más utilizada por las mujeres, mientras que las estrategias de afrontamiento de religión y desvinculación comportamental fueron más usadas por varones. Los participantes del interior del país mostraron valores más altos en el FPP con relación a los de ciudad, y la creencia religiosa, presentó alta relación con la AD y la RE. Por medio de estudio de regresión lineal, se pudo observar que, si bien las tres variables independientes predicen la variable dependiente, el mejor predictor es el FPP, seguido de la RE y las EA. El valor de t indicó un buen índice de relevancia del F. Estos resultados pueden ser de utilidad para ser considerados en la planificación de tratamientos en adolescentes con cáncer, con un abordaje basado en recursos psicológicosUniversidad Miguel Hernández de ElcheDepartamentos de la UMH::Psicología de la Salud202320232023info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdf9application/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/11000/29806reponame:REDIUMH.
