- 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 laScientific 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
- Influence of parent-adolescent relationship on early sexual debut and number of partners among Mexican youth(Universidad de Anáhuac, 2016-09) Carlos-Chillerón, S. (Silvia); Laris, R. (Rosario); Irala, J. (Jokin) de; Tarasco, M. (Martha); Osorio, A. (Alfonso); Lopez-del-Burgo, C. (Cristina)Objective: To evaluate whether parents-adolescents relationships were associated with early sexual debut and having multiple partners, risk factors for sexually transmitted infections, in a low socioeconomic suburb in Mexico City. Methods: Nine hundred thirty six participants, aged 20-30, responded to an anonymous questionnaire about sexual activity and relationships with parents during adolescence. Logistic regression was conducted. Results: The majority of participants reported being sexually active (78.3%). Among them, 70% of males and 55% of females had first sex before age 18. Good communication with parents during adolescence was inversely associated with sexual debut <18 (OR=0.40; CI95% 0.30-0.53) and with having >2 sexual partners (OR=0.47; IC95% 0.33-0.68). Sexual debut <18 was positively associated with having had multiple partners (OR=6.69; IC95% 4.64-9.65). Conclusion: Good parental communication during adolescence may help prevent adolescents from choosing early sexual debut and having multiple partners and, consequently, from acquiring HIV and other STIs. Efforts are necessary to support parents in their relationship with their adolescent children.
- Connections between family assets and positive youth development: the association between parental monitoring and affection with leisure-time activities and substance use(2020) Riper, M. (Marcia) van; Irala, J. (Jokin) de; Belintxon, M. (Maider); Osorio, A. (Alfonso); Vidaurreta, M. (Marta); Reparaz-Abaitua, C. (Charo)This study aimed to determine the associations between parental monitoring and affection and three adolescent lifestyle aspects: constructive leisure, non-constructive leisure and substance use. A cross-sectional study was conducted in four countries (Chile, Mexico, Spain and Peru). Adolescents aged 12¿15 self-completed a multi-purpose questionnaire. Multiple logistic regressions were performed to analyse the association between the parental monitoring and affection variables and the outcomes in terms of the children¿s lifestyles. The results indicate that parental monitoring is conducive to more constructive leisure and less non-constructive leisure and seems to be conducive to the prevention of substance use. Furthermore, parental affection is conducive to constructive leisure and the prevention of substance use. The discussion focuses on the fact that the family can be a protective resource associated with positive adolescent development.
- The Sooner, the Worse? Association between earlier age of sexual initiation and worse adolescent health and well-being outcomes(2017) Carlos-Chillerón, S. (Silvia); Irala, J. (Jokin) de; Osorio, A. (Alfonso); Lopez-del-Burgo, C. (Cristina)This cross-sectional study assesses the association between age of sexual initiation during adolescence and a selection of well-being outcomes regarding that first relationship. High-school adolescents from El Salvador (2,686) and from Peru (3,399) replied to a paper-pencil questionnaire. Those who were sexually initiated replied to several questions regarding their age at sexual initiation, condom use, satisfaction and reasons/circumstances for that sexual relationship. Approximately 19% of participants were sexually initiated (n=1,179). After retaining participants with valid responses and with sexual initiation ages between 13 and 17, the final sample for this paper consisted of 996 sexually initiated participants (526 Salvadorians and 470 Peruvians). Multiple logistic regression analyses showed that those who initiated sex at earlier ages had worse outcomes compared to those who initiated at older ages. Specifically, they had lower odds of having used a condom, of having good memories of that experience and of having had that first relationship because they were in love. Conversely, they had higher odds of having had that first sexual relationship as a result of peer pressure, because of partner pressure, or as a consequence of different forms of impaired autonomy. Results show that sex at earlier ages is associated with worse adolescent health and well-being outcomes.
- Male condom use, multiple sexual partners and HIV: a prospective case-control study in Kinshasa (DRC)(AIDS Care, 2016-11-02) Martinez-Gonzalez, M.A. (Miguel Ángel); Carlos-Chillerón, S. (Silvia); Burgueño, E. (Eduardo); Passabosc, C. (Clément); Irala, J. (Jokin) de; Ndarabu, A. (Adolphe); Osorio, A. (Alfonso); Lopez-del-Burgo, C. (Cristina)In the Democratic Republic of Congo no previous studies have assessed the factors associated with different patterns of condom use and with multiple sexual partners and the association between condom use simultaneously taking into account multiple sexual partnerships, and HIV infection. We carried out a prospective case-control study. From December 2010 until June 2012, 1,630 participants aged 15-49 getting HIV Voluntary Counseling and Testing in a hospital in Kinshasa were selected. Cases were new HIV diagnosis and controls were HIV-negative participants detected along the study period. We recruited 274 cases and 1,340 controls that were interviewed about HIV-related knowledge, attitudes and behaviours. Among cases there was a high prevalence of multiple lifetime and concurrent sexual partnerships (89.8% and 20.4%, respectively) and most cases never used condoms with only 1.5% using them consistently. Condom use and multiple partnerships were associated with male, single and high-educated participants. An association was found between multiple lifetime partners and `any condom use´ (OR=2.99; 95%CI: 2.14-4.19) but not with consistent use. Both having two or more multiple concurrent sexual partners or not using condoms were variables similarly and highly associated to HIV risk. The association found between having two or more concurrent sexual partners and HIV was slightly higher (OR=3.58, 95%CI:2.31-5-56) than the association found between never condom use and HIV (OR=3.38, 95%CI:1.15-9.93). We found a high prevalence of multiple lifetime sexual partners and an extremely high prevalence of inconsistent condom use, both strongly associated with HIV seropositivity. Local programs would benefit from comprehensive interventions targeting all behavioural and sociocultural determinants.
