Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Relacion entre las actitudes alimentarias y la imagen corporal en mujeres estudiantes de la facultad de psicología de la Universidad Santo Tomás seccional Villavicencio(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-25) Santos Moreno, Deysi Tatiana; Mojica Gómez, Pedro Alexis; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000948110; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=VhlJRbcAAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1243-9259This study sought to determine whether there is a relationship between eating attitudes and body image among female university students in the Psychology Department at Universidad Santo Tomás, Villavicencio campus. A quantitative, correlational, non-experimental, cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 178 female students enrolled in the Psychology program. Using the EAT-40 and BSQ instruments, moderate and positive correlations were found between the Diet and Food Preoccupation dimension and the Body Dissatisfaction and Weight Preoccupation dimensions. The Perceived Social Pressure dimension, in contrast, showed a positive but weak correlation with these same two dimensions. Overall, the results indicate that Diet and Food Preoccupation is statistically significantly associated with body dissatisfaction and weight preoccupation.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , La Nomofobia y sus Implicaciones en el Rendimiento Académico en Estudiantes de la Universidad Santo Tomás en la Ciudad de Villavicencio.(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-21) Gutiérrez Pérez, Karn Dahanna; Sofía del Pilar, Rey Zaldúa; Rondon Ardila, Karen Michell; Avila Vergara, Bayro; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002355000; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&view_op=list_works&gmla=AKzYXQ2kajAVkmbB3HTPVW9QfC5j292RMU6jDNtscIfjfh1xEcRiiQ7eCn2FbaQRDhAiw7fKpWYVJgfEIJsg_Mk5i68I1h__uQ&user=EihO0W0AAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0009-0008-1641-8985The present study aimed to identify the relationship between levels of nomophobia and the perception of academic performance among students at Universidad Santo Tomás, Villavicencio Section. A quantitative study was conducted under the positivist paradigm and an empirical-analytical perspective, aimed at analyzing the association between the variables. A total of 100 students participated, of whom 97 responses were valid. Data were collected using the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q), designed to assess levels of nomophobia, and the University Academic Performance Scale (RAU), designed to assess the perception of academic performance. The data ere processed through descriptive and correlational analyses using SPSS, applying Spearman's Rho correlation coefficient due to the non-parametric distribution of the data. The results showed that 56.7% of participants were classified as being at risk of nomophobia, while 39.2% were classified as problematic users. Likewise, 52.6% reported a lo perception of their academic performance, whereas 42.3% reported a moderate perception. However, no statistically significant relationship as found between the variables (r = -0.047; p = 0.646). These findings suggest that the relationship between nomophobia and perceived academic performance may be influenced by individual, academic, and contextual factors. Therefore, future research should incorporate objective indicators of academic performance and variables such as self-regulation, study habits, sleep, anxiety, and academic stress.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Relación entre el uso de la inteligencia artificial generativa en los niveles de procrastinación y rendimiento académico en estudiantes de II y VIII semestre de la USTA Villavicencio.(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-26) Moreno Rodas, Carlos Alberto; Lopez Prieto, Angelica; Medina Calderon, Juan Jose; Reyes Reyes, Andres Alejandro; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000164325; https://scholar.google.es/citations?hl=es&user=4BkVLUkAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2466-3434?lang=enThe present research aims to analyze the relationship between the use of generative artificial intelligence, academic procrastination, and academic performance among second- and eighth-semester students at Universidad Santo Tomás, Villavicencio Campus. The study arises from the growing use of generative artificial intelligence tools in the university context and the need to understand their potential relationship with students’ academic habits and performance. The study will adopt a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental design and a correlational scope, as the variables will be observed and analyzed without experimental manipulation. The population will consist of second- and eighth-semester students enrolled in the Psychology program at Universidad Santo Tomás, Villavicencio Campus, and non-probability convenience sampling will be used. Data will be collected using the Artificial Intelligence Use Questionnaire (CUIA), the Procrastination Assessment Scale for Students (PASS), and the academic grade point average corresponding to the 2025-2 academic period. The analysis will include descriptive statistics and Pearson or Spearman correlation tests, depending on whether the assumptions of normality are met. This research seeks to provide evidence regarding the relationship between the use of generative artificial intelligence, academic procrastination, and academic performance, contributing to a better understanding of the responsible use of these tools in higher education.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Depresion, ansiedad y burnout en mujeres trabajadoras sexuales de modalidad presencial y webcam de la ciudad de Villavicencio-Meta(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-22) Jimenez Cespedes, Natalia; Puentes Berdugo, Laura Valentina; Vargas Hernandez, Giselle Ximena; Delgado Correa, Jimmy Alejandro; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001691984; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=qVqfYH4AAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9230-5076The main objective of this research was to determine the relationship between levels of depression, anxiety, and burnout in female sex workers, both in-person and webcam-based, in the city of Villavicencio, Meta. This study was developed using a descriptive-correlational design and a non-probabilistic convenience sampling method. The sample consisted of 85 women, 51 of whom were in-person sex workers and 34 webcam-based. Two psychometric instruments were used to assess the variables: the DASS-21, for depression and anxiety (excluding stress), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), to assess burnout. The results showed high levels of depressive, anxious, and burnout-related symptoms in the in-person sex workers. In this group, 68.6% presented burnout, compared to 8.8% in the webcam-based sex workers. Likewise, high levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization were evident in the in-person learning group. The analysis using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient revealed positive and statistically significant relationships between the variables evaluated. A strong association was found between depression and the emotional exhaustion subscale (ρ = 0.714), as well as moderate relationships between depression and anxiety (ρ = 0.597) and between anxiety and total burnout (ρ = 0.567). Finally, the results allowed us to conclude that the increase in levels of depressive and anxious symptoms is related to levels of emotional exhaustion and burnout. This highlights the importance of understanding psychological well-being in this population from a contextual perspective, taking into account social, occupational, economic, and vulnerability factors.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Preferencia materna por el hijo varón y sus implicaciones vínculares: revisión sistemática desde el enfoque psicoanalítico(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-24) Nieto Portilla, Juan David; Mojica Gómez, Pedro Alexis; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000948110; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=VhlJRbcAAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1243-9259This paper presents a systematic review grounded in the psychoanalytic approach to maternal preference for male offspring and its implications for the formation of bonds and subjectivity. It argues that this phenomenon articulates unconscious dimensions of maternal desire with patriarchal cultural structures that have historically privileged the male child, granting him a central symbolic and affective place in the mother’s psychic life. This dynamic generates differentiated effects: in sons, it can foster symbiotic bonds, difficulties in separation-individuation, emotional dependence, and limitations in forming autonomous adult relationships; while in daughters, it produces experiences of exclusion, emotional devaluation, and impaired self-esteem and personal recognition, the comprehensive literature review from 2015 to 2025 analyzes the persistence of these configurations in contemporary contexts and their relevance to the organization of the mother–child bond.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Conocimiento y Creencias Nutricionales: Aspectos Relevantes en las Elecciones Alimentarias en Estudiantes Universitarios de Villavicencio(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-25) Calvo Granados, Luna Ximena; Gaona Viatela, Oscar David; Romero Cardenas, Karol Brillith; Sánchez Martínez, Henrry; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000750140; https://scholar.google.com.ar/citations?user=LIuk7_cAAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6609-241XThis undergraduate thesis aimed to determine the correlation between nutritional literacy, nutritional beliefs, and food choices based on calories and nutrients. A sample of 203 adult university students from the city of Villavicencio (n=203) was used. Methodologically, a quantitative, correlational research design was implemented. The procedure began with criterion validation of the Nutritional Literacy Scale (NLS) using the NVS and the S-TOFHLA. The NLS was then administered along with the Overeating Questionnaire (OQ) and a Food Comparison Task based on calories and nutrients. Statistical analysis showed a weak correlation between nutritional literacy and food choices (correlation coefficient of .292 and a significance value of p= .000). However, no correlation was found between nutritional beliefs and either of the other two variables. The above may be due to several reasons, including the fact that food choices are not only influenced by internal factors such as beliefs, but also by exogenous variables such as the environment, the economy, and availability. Furthermore, due to the small sample size, the correlation may not have been detected, so future research needs to improve procedural aspects to test this hypothesis.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Exploración de los procesos psíquicos de la relacion madre hijo luego de luego de un embarazo ectópico(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-07) Mejía Barrero, Jean Sebastián; Moreno Marroquí, Juliana Camila; Gallego Rivera, María De Las Nieves; Pajón Rojas, Camila; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001814994; https://scholar.google.es/citations?user=Ajg0F-EAAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3112-8501This research seeks to understand the psychological processes that occur in the mother-child relationship following an ectopic pregnancy, from a psychoanalytic perspective. This phenomenon, in addition to its physical risks, produces an emotional and subjective impact on the woman, on motherhood, and on the formation of the bond with her child after an ectopic pregnancy. This research addresses categories such as maternal function, object relations, and the body, understanding pregnancy as a biological and psychological event shaped by desire and unconscious representations of the body. It is framed within the interpretive paradigm and phenomenological-hermeneutic epistemology, which allows for an understanding of reality and an exploration of the meanings the mother attributes to her experience. The study is conducted through an in-depth interview with a woman residing in Villavicencio who experienced an ectopic pregnancy and subsequently had a child. The results contribute to the understanding of the psychological processes of ectopic pregnancy within object relations.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , El impacto de la utilización de herramientas de inteligencia artificial en habilidades relacionadas con el pensamiento crítico en estudiantes de la Universidad Santo Tomás seccional Villavicencio(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-05) Acosta Rubio, María José; Benjumea Llanes, Veronica Isabella; López Robayo, Astrid Victoria; Ávila Vergara, Bayro; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002355000; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&view_op=list_works&gmla=AKzYXQ2kajAVkmbB3HTPVW9QfC5j292RMU6jDNtscIfjfh1xEcRiiQ7eCn2FbaQRDhAiw7fKpWYVJgfEIJsg_Mk5i68I1h__uQ&user=EihO0W0AAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0009-0008-1641-8985This study aims to determine the impact of using artificial intelligence tools on critical thinking skills, with a sample of 82 students from the Santo Tomás University, Villavicencio Campus, who were divided into three groups: 26 in the control group, 28 in experimental group I (traditional learning), and 28 in experimental group II (AI-based learning). The study was conducted using an experimental design with a post-test and a control group. An evaluation rubric and questionnaire with achievement criteria were designed to measure critical thinking based on Halpern’s six dimensions; these were evaluated by three expert judges and underwent a pilot test in a university setting. Finally, inter-rater agreement was assessed and analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results revealed a statistically significant difference in most dimensions between the traditional group and the AI group; however, no differences were found between the control group and the traditional group. It is concluded that AI tools have an impact on critical thinking skills, demonstrating that there are greater differences in the group that implemented the AI-based study method.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , La vivencia del duelo no reconocido por el fallecimiento de una mascota en los jóvenes de Villavicencio(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-21) Peña Vigoya, Danna Sofía; Gómez Arias, Juliana; Ortiz Garcia, Maira Alejandra; Sánchez Camacho, Diana Carolina; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001986901; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=FxKynX4AAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5454-8600The objective of this research was to understand the experience of disenfranchised grief due to the death of a pet among young adults in Villavicencio. It was grounded in a qualitative approach under the interpretative paradigm, a phenomenological-hermeneutic epistemology, and a narrative design. The participants were three young women between 18 and 28 years old who had lost their pets within a period ranging from one month to one year prior to the interview. Data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews, which were organized and analyzed using a categorization matrix. The results show that the participants considered their pets as family members with roles such as "daughter" or "sister," fulfilling emotional support functions grounded in Bowlby’s attachment theory. Likewise, the death constituted a trauma, approached from a Freudian perspective, where helplessness, paralysis, and strangulated affect became evident. Faced with the pain of the loss, the participants reported experiencing social invalidation from their environment, which led them to isolate themselves, engage in self-censorship, and experience feelings described by Worden, such as persistent guilt and deep sadness. However, through private and memorial rituals, conceptualized by Doka, the participants were able to dignify their loss. Finally, it is concluded and discussed that there is an urgent need to destigmatize this form of grief, contributing to regional mental health and calling for a sensitive, empathetic clinical practice regarding multispecies relationships.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Transformaciones narrativas del sentido de vida asociadas a experiencias con psilocibina en adultos jóvenes de Villa de Leyva(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-24) Triana Rangel, Valentina; Duran Castellanos, Karla Vanessa; Rojas Romero, Saira Paola; Acevedo Arango, Oscar Fernando; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001343764; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=S5-lWu4AAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2892-7521This study aimed to understand the relationship between psychedelic substance use and the transformation of life-meaning narratives among young adults living in Villa de Leyva, Colombia. A qualitative approach with a narrative design was employed to explore the meanings participants attribute to their experiences with psilocybin and the ways these experiences are integrated into their life stories. Data were collected through in-depth narrative interviews conducted with five male participants aged between 24 and 40 years who reported previous psychedelic experiences. The analysis was organized around four main categories: psychedelic experience, subjective transformations, life-meaning narratives, and sociocultural influences. Findings revealed that psilocybin experiences were perceived as significant life events that promoted self-reflection, emotional resignification, identity reconstruction, and a reorganization of temporal experience. The results also showed that transformations in life meaning are not exclusively linked to substance use itself, but rather to the narrative, relational, and contextual processes through which these experiences are interpreted and integrated. The study concludes that psychedelic experiences can become meaningful opportunities for reconstructing personal significance, fostering new understandings of the self, interpersonal relationships, and future life projects. These findings contribute to the psychological understanding of psychedelic experiences from a narrative and contextual perspective.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Consecuencias, efectos e implicaciones de las distintas formas de violencia hacia las mujeres: una revisión de alcance(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-23) García Polania, Angie Alejandra; Ibañez Cortes, Katherine; Romero Reyes, Paula Andrea; Siachoque Morantes, Nicolas; Quiroga Baquero, Luis Alberto; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001048902; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=AOeAwzsAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9646-9860; https://orcid.org/0009-0001-0713-0444Violence against women represents a public health and human rights problem that takes physical, psychological, sexual, economic, symbolic, institutional, obstetric and digital forms, whose effects are not always visible or distributed in a similar way, in this way the This research aimed to identify, systematize and map the available evidence on physical and psychological sections. To do so, a review of the scientific literature was carried out through the pool, selection and analysis of studies related to the consequences of violence in the physical, psychological, sexual, economic and social dimensions. The results showed 610 category-study records derived from 157 unique references. The records focused on consequences and impacts, risk factors and forms/types of violence. The most repeated sections were grouped into mental health, physical health, sexual and reproductive health, economic autonomy, social networks, institutional access and accumulated conditions. The evidence confirms that violence against women operates as a continuum of intertwined harm. Gaps persist over digital, economic, symbolic and institutional violence, long-range effects, intersectional populations and standardized medicines.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Respuesta emocional y rendimiento cognitivo en adultos mayores ante esfuerzo físico, cognitivo y doble tarea(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-11-22) Camacho de los Rios , Fernanda; Figueroa Ángel , Melba Ximena; Garavito Peña, Felipe Ricardo; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000001043; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001520104; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002367132; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0420-1590; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9346-7598; https://orcid.org/0009-0001-5344-5826Aging involves multiple losses and progressive changes in physical, cognitive, and emotional dimensions that directly impact quality of life. Although evidence supports the benefits of physical exercise and cognitive training when applied separately, little is known about their simultaneous interaction on emotional response and cognitive performance in older adults. The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in emotional response and cognitive performance before and after three experimental conditions: cognitive effort (CE), physical effort (PE), and dual-task (DT). A single-group pre-experimental pre-post design with repeated measures was employed (n = 5). Participants were physically active older adults aged 60–74 years from the Physical Activity Program for Older Adults at Universidad Santo Tomás. Emotional response was assessed using the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), while cognitive performance was measured with the computerized Stroop Test administered via PsychoPy. Data were analyzed using paired-samples t-tests and Cohen’s d effect sizes in JASP software. No statistically significant changes were observed across conditions, a finding attributed to the limited sample size. Nevertheless, effect sizes revealed that the dual-task condition increased positive affect (d = 0.44) while negative affect remained stable (d = 0.00). Overall improvements in cognitive performance were noted following the experimental sessions, with the largest gain in inhibitory control occurring after the cognitive effort condition (d = 0.99). The physical effort condition showed the greatest emotional stability. In conclusion, cognitive-motor dual-tasking does not produce emotional overload and slightly enhances cognitive performance in active older adults, positioning it as a promising intervention for future research with larger samples.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Mecanismos de afrontamiento de la frustración por bajo rendimiento deportivo en jóvenes deportistas en la ciudad de Bogotá DC.(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-23) Apreza Sánchez, Juan Estevan; Diaz Rayo, David Santiago; Leal Gutiérrez, Sebastián; Acevedo Arango, Oscar Fernando; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001343764; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001698192; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=S5-lWu4AAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2892-7521This research aimed to understand the frustration mechanisms developed by young soccer players in Bogotá when facing situations of poor athletic performance, taking into account their individual experiences and the construction of their life projects. The study was primarily grounded in the Lazarus and Folkman transactional model of stress and coping, complemented by insights from sports psychology regarding frustration, poor athletic performance, life projects, and group dynamics. A qualitative study with a phenomenological-hermeneutic design was conducted, involving eight young adults aged 18 to 24 affiliated with soccer academies in Bogotá. The process unfolded in five phases: field access and participant selection, informed consent, data collection, data organization and storage, and process conclusion. Semi-structured interviews were used for data collection, and the information was analyzed through open, axial, and selective coding, complemented by elements of discourse analysis. The findings revealed that frustration is primarily linked to errors, injuries, and personal expectations; furthermore, participants employ strategies centered on reflection, seeking solutions, and emotional regulation. Support from family, teammates, and coaches acts as a protective factor, whereas self-imposed demands and social comparisons can serve as sources of pressure. The study concludes that athletic frustration can become an opportunity for learning and personal growth when adaptive coping resources and support networks are present.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , El proceso de formación en políticas públicas desde la facultad de psicología de la Universidad Santo Tomás: un análisis desde las representaciones sociales(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-18) Pachongo Tijo, Jessica Lorena; Mora Bustos, Christian Yamir; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000530220; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=tbHW1wYAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4505-6756Psychology is a discipline that has historically contributed to the understanding of human behavior, social dynamics, and the factors that influence individuals’ quality of life. Professional practice has traditionally focused on legal, educational, community, and health-related contexts, addressing complex social issues. However, contemporary social changes require professionals who can move beyond conventional intervention settings and actively participate in broader transformation processes within institutions and society as a whole. It is within this context that public policies become particularly relevant, as they cut across multiple dimensions of society and seek to address social problems and population needs through coordinated actions involving both individuals and institutions. Despite this relevance, psychologists’ participation in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of public policies remains limited and insufficiently visible. This situation raises important questions regarding how this subject is addressed during the university education of future professionals. Universities play a fundamental role in the training of psychologists, as they are responsible for preparing professionals capable of responding to current and future social needs. In the field of psychology, this involves not only the development of theoretical and technical knowledge but also the promotion of competencies related to critical thinking, social commitment, interdisciplinarity, and an understanding of the political processes that shape human problems. Consequently, there is a need to understand how the relationship between psychology education and public policy is configured within the educational process. For this reason, the present study seeks to analyze the social representations held by different members of the Faculty of Psychology at Santo Tomás University regarding the process of education and training in public policy. Social Representations Theory suggests that individuals construct shared knowledge, attitudes, and meanings that guide the ways in which they interpret and act upon their reality. Exploring these social representations makes it possible to understand how different actors perceive the role of the university in public policy education and to identify the opportunities and limitations associated with its incorporation into psychological practice. The findings presented in this study make it possible to identify dichotomies, gaps, and opportunities related to education and training in public policy, as well as reflections concerning comprehensive education, interdisciplinarity, the role of the university, and psychologists’ participation in settings that promote social transformation. In this way, the study aims to contribute elements that encourage reflection on contemporary educational processes and on the possibility of strengthening psychologists’ involvement in spaces where their knowledge can contribute to the development of responses to current social challenges.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Cuando cuerpo enferma mente también sufre(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-17) Roa Cáceres, María Carolina; Amezquita Triana, Luisa Fernanda; Castellanos Ruiz, Sofia; Figueroa Ángel, Melba Ximena; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000001043; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002355225; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0420-1590; https://orcid.org/0009-0002-7593-3473This study aimed to understand how women diagnosed with breast cancer re-signify their personal goals after at least one year in complete remission. A qualitative approach with a phenomenological design, framed within the interpretive paradigm, was employed. Six women in complete remission participated; in-depth individual interviews and a focus group were used as data collection strategies, with instrument validation by expert judges. Six core categories emerged from the analysis: re-signified personal goals, mental representations, goal-directed behaviors, social and cultural values, illness beliefs, and cultural mandates. Participants transitioned from goals centered on external demands toward goals oriented to self-care, personal growth, and emotional well-being. Spirituality, family bonds, and the belief in a mind-body connection functioned as key re-signification resources. It is concluded that complete remission does not imply a return to a prior state, but rather the construction of a new normality grounded in more personal convictions. Gender mandates hindered the expression of vulnerability, yet participants actively resisted them. Health systems must incorporate sustained psychosocial support during the remission stage.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Narrativas de jóvenes universitarios sobre sus interacciones con inteligencia artificial desde las dimensiones del bienestar psicológico de Ryff(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-09-10) González Lasso, Brahian Smider; Acosta García, Angie Natalia; Mora Aguirre, Ana Sofía; Robayo León, Natalia Andrea; Figueroa Ángel , Melba Ximena; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0420-1590Artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved beyond its instrumental function to become a space for interaction that fosters experiences of companionship, attentive listening, and emotional connection. This study aimed to understand university students’ narratives about their interactions with AI in relation to the dimensions of psychological well-being proposed by Ryff: self-acceptance, positive relations with others, autonomy, environmental mastery, purpose in life, and personal growth. A qualitative study with a narrative design was conducted through 13 semi-structured interviews with students from Universidad Santo Tomás (Colombia), aged 18 to 28 years. Data were analyzed at the textual, contextual, and metatextual levels using Quintero Mejía’s (2018) narrative matrix. The findings revealed that participants’ narratives were characterized by paradoxical and ambivalent plots, in which AI was perceived both as a tool that enhances learning and academic performance and as a potential threat to autonomy, relational authenticity, and life purpose. Four narrative plots were identified: learning and transformation, latent threat, relational dehumanization, and critical empowerment. The study concludes that psychological well-being in the digital era depends on developing a reflective and critical relationship with AI, fostering autonomy, creativity, and ethical judgment.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Ecos: la dinámica familiar frente a los desafíos del trastorno de ansiedad(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-08-07) Rojas Ortiz, Paula Yesenia; Vela Quilcue, Heidy Yaidy; Ferreira Duarte, Julian David; Universidad Santo Tómás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001832913; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&view_op=list_works&gmla=AO4B3jtlW69kL_9S8K-IAzfK3XijXaiFUBhTXAtOyBaQ9IJfk9aAxcQqHY_e8-eo50C2jH0bAMeu8rHNM6O7HrSf4vuydeWY6g&user=tjBSWkIAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6400-9798This qualitative research seeks to understand, through a case study, the dynamics of a family system when one of its members exhibits symptoms of an anxiety disorder. Using the complexity paradigm, it analyzes how certain anxiety-inducing experiences permeate daily life, family relationships, and roles, as well as how individual and collective coping strategies shape interactions among family members. The findings reveal a significant reorganization of roles and a search for emotional closeness; however, there is also tension and emotional strain among some members. Based on these findings, an understanding of family dynamics is developed—taking into account contextual factors and shared meanings—to guide interventions that strengthen family functioning and address the anxiety disorder.

Theoretically, the study is based on three main categories: social reintegration, personal autonomy, and narrative identity. Methodologically, it was structured as a systematic qualitative review, using its basis for analysis of the experiences reported in academic documents about incarcerated adults in Latin America and Europe. The process included stages of literature search, selection, evaluation, systematization, thematic classification, and interpretive synthesis, using documentary matrices, and applying thematic analysis to the data. The results demonstrate that, while economic circumstances restrict decision-making capacity and foster dependency, autonomy can be gradually rebuilt thanks to protective factors such as self-management, employment, education, and family support networks. A strong affect was also observed in the subjects' biographical narratives, which could be positively transformed through access to academic opportunities. In conclusion, reintegration is a multidimensional phenomenon that demands community and institutional co-responsibility, demonstrating that autonomy goes beyond simple individual will and requires real conditions and opportunities in the environment to forge new life projects.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Abandono emocional en adultos jóvenes: construcción y validación de una herramienta de evaluación(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-06-02) Velásquez Cervantes, Camila Alejandra; Useche Varela, Karen Dahiana; Gaitán Ramírez, Thomas Julian; Reyes Reyes, Andres Alejandro; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000164325; https://scholar.google.es/citations?hl=es&user=4BkVLUkAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2466-3434?lang=enThe objective of this study was to develop and psychometrically evaluate a tool for measuring emotional neglect in young adults in the city of Villavicencio, based on a post-positivist, critical rational, empirical-analytical approach. The research was carried out in three phases: operational definition of the construct, design of the instrument, and evaluation of its validity and relevance. In the first phase, an exhaustive theoretical review was conducted, which identified six dimensions of emotional abandonment: explicit lack of support, broken bonds, ambiguous relational cognition, difficulty establishing new relationships, guilt and insecurity, and low self-esteem. Subsequently, the instrument was submitted to expert review, who evaluated the clarity, coherence, relevance, and adequacy of the items, agreeing on the theoretical and social relevance of its measurement. Finally, the test was applied to a sample of young adults, and the results showed adequate content validity, construct validity, and semantic comprehension, which determines the usefulness of the instrument for assessing experiences of emotional abandonment in young adults from different areas that are decisive in young adulthood.Tipo de ítem: Ítem , Evaluación de la Relación entre Uso de la Aplicación Chatgpt y la Autonomía Intelectual en Estudiantes de Psicología de la Universidad Santo Tomás Seccional Villavicencio(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-05-04) Aguilar Clavijo, Nadllah Valentina; Avila Torres, Xiomara; Holguin Vergara, Nicol Dayanna; Sánchez Martínez, Henrry; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000750140; https://scholar.google.com.ar/citations?user=LIuk7_cAAAAJ&hl=es; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/gruplac/jsp/visualiza/visualizagr.jsp?nro=00000000020654; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6609-241XThe main purpose of this research was to examine the possible relationship between the use of the ChatGPT application and the development of intellectual autonomy among Psychology students at Universidad Santo Tomás, Villavicencio campus. The study was conducted under a quantitative, cross-sectional, and correlational approach, aiming to determine whether the use of artificial intelligence tools has a significant relationship with the strengthening of higher-order cognitive skills, including critical thinking, logical reasoning, and cognitive flexibility. To collect the information, a structured questionnaire was applied, allowing the identification of the frequency with which students use ChatGPT, along with subtests such as reasoning and card classification, which were used as indicators to assess intellectual autonomy. The data were analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation test, considering three levels: a general correlation for the entire sample, one for participants with higher frequency of use, and another for those who reported more limited use. In conclusion, the results showed that there is no statistically significant relationship between the frequency of ChatGPT use and the dimensions of intellectual autonomy. In the overall sample, a slight negative correlation was found between the use of the tool and reasoning (rho = -0.242; p = 0.123), as well as very low positive correlations with card sorting (rho = 0.111; p = 0.484) and between reasoning and card sorting (rho = 0.223; p = 0.156), none of which were statistically significant. In the group with higher frequency of use, the coefficients were also low (rho = 0.071; 0.093; and 0.213; p > 0.05), confirming the absence of a significant relationship. Similarly, in the group with lower frequency of use, weak negative correlations were observed between use and reasoning (rho = -0.264; p = 0.34) and between use and card sorting (rho = -0.419; p = 0.12), along with a weak positive relationship between reasoning and card sorting (rho = 0.390; p = 0.15), which was also not statistically significant. Although slight negative trends were identified, the findings suggest that the impact of this tool depends more on how it is used than on the amount of time spent using it. Therefore, it may serve as a valuable pedagogical support tool when employed with instructional guidance, critical reflection, and educational objectives that promote students’ cognitive independence. The results showed no statistically significant relationship between the frequency of ChatGPT use and the dimensions of intellectual autonomy. However, slight negative trends were identified, suggesting that the impact of this tool depends more on how it is used rather than on the amount of time spent using it. In conclusion, ChatGPT can serve as a valuable pedagogical support when it is implemented with proper academic guidance, critical reflection, and educational goals aimed at promoting students’ cognitive independence.
