    Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder as a risk factor for being involved in intimate partner violence and sexual violence: a systematic review and meta-analysis
    (Cambridge University Press, 2023) Cortese, S. (Samuele); Arrondo, G. (Gonzalo); Magallon-Recalde, S. (Sara); Osorio, A. (Alfonso); Lopez-del-Burgo, C. (Cristina)
    Background: Intimate partner violence (IPV) and sexual violence (SV) are significant problems world-wide, and they affect women disproportionally. Whether individuals with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are at an increased risk of being involved in these types of violence is unclear. Methods: We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO registration CRD42022348165) of the associations between ADHD and being the victim or perpetrator of IPV and SV. Ratios of occurrence of violence were pooled in random-effects models and study risk of bias was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results: A search on multiple databases, carried out on 7 October 2022, yielded 14 eligible studies (1 111 557 individuals). Analyses showed a higher risk of ADHD individuals being involved in IPV as perpetrators (six studies, OR 2.5, 95% CI 1.51-4.15) or victims (four studies, OR 1.78, 95% CI 1.06-3.0). Likewise, individuals with ADHD were at increased risk of being perpetrators (three studies, OR 2.73, 95% CI 1.35-5.51) or victims of SV (six studies, OR 1.84, 95% CI 1.51-2.24). Results were overall robust to different analytical choices. Conclusions: Individuals with ADHD are at an increased risk of being involved in cases of violence, namely IPV and SV, either as victims or perpetrators. Although the causal path or mediating variables for these results are still unclear, this increased risk should inform evidence-based psychoeducation with individuals with ADHD, their families, and partners about romantic relationships and sexuality.

    Leisure time activities in adolescents predict problematic technology use
    (Springer, 2023) Ibabe, I. (Izaskun); Lopez-del-Burgo, C. (Cristina); Albertos-San-José, A. (Aránzazu)
    The problematic use of technology of children and adolescents is becoming a growing problem. Research has shown that excessive technology use predicts a variety of psychological and physical health problems. The aim of this study was to analyze the role of leisure time activities (structured and unstructured) in adolescents as a predictor of problematic technology use. Participants were 7723 adolescents, of which 55% were girls, from four Spanish-speaking countries (Chile, Spain, Mexico, and Peru) between the ages of 13 and 18 years. The evaluation instrument applied was the YOURLIFE project self-report questionnaire. Two executive functions were measured: goal setting and inhibitory control. Using structural equation modeling, findings indicated that structured leisure time activities predicted less PTU, whereas unstructured activities predicted more PTU, MLχ2 (69, N = 7723) = 806.60; CFI = 0.929, RMSEA = 0.042, and the model had good predictive capacity for PTU (R2 = 0.46). Structured and unstructured activities also showed indirect effects on PTU through executive functions. As adolescents spent more time in unstructured leisure activities, poorer goal setting, inhibitory control skills, and more PTU were found. The opposite was true for structured leisure time activities. Implications of structured leisure activities to develop executive functioning and to prevent PTU for adolescents are discussed.

    Activities and relationships with parents as key ecological assets that encourage personal positive youth development
    (Wiley, 2021) Balaguer-Estaña, A.J. (Álvaro J.); Orejudo, S. (Santos); Osorio, A. (Alfonso); Lopez-del-Burgo, C. (Cristina); Rosa, P.A. (Pedro Antonio) de la
    Scientific literature has shown contextual factors thatpredict youth development, and family variables are themost important ones. In this study, we propose a modelthat explains the relation between family variables (re-lationship with parents and family activities) and PersonalPositive Youth Development (assessed through Life sa-tisfaction, Interiority, and Self‐control), across differentcultures. We recruited 2867 adolescents aged 12–18 years(52% female) from three countries: Spain, Mexico, andPeru. They completed an anonymous questionnaire. Werun exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, andstructural equation modelling, testing for invariance acrosscountries and sexes. In all subsamples, positive family re-lationships were associated with adolescents' Life Sa-tisfaction. In addition, time invested on family activities wasassociated with Interiority and with Self‐control. However,some differences across cultures and sex were found in thespecific associations. Theoretical and practical implicationsare discussed regarding how to improve adolescent devel-opment through family life
