In this article we analyse the challenges women in senior positions face during their academic careers in Chile. Forty-eight senior professors from seven Chilean universities were interviewed in-depth. The results showed that it is challenging for these women to balance the activities of academic work, i.e. teaching, research, service, and manageme...
Bullshit—verbal statements with little or no concern for the truth—has sparked a growing interest in individual traits, with an increase in the number of studies aimed at understanding why people are more receptive to this type of false information. This review seeks to identify variables associated with bullshit receptivity. To this end, a meta‐an...
This brief report examines both within-network and between-network construct validity of the Burnout Assessment Tool for Students (BAT-S) in a sample of 461 Chilean undergraduate university students (70.9% female) ranging between 18 and 58 years old (M = 21.6, SD = 4.34). The reliability analysis results showed adequate internal consistency for the...

A qualitative methodology is applied through a documentary analysis design. Gender policy information published on the web pages of 30 universities is reviewed. In total, 711 docum...
This article presents a theory-driven model in which teacher-student relationships and academic performance are indirectly related through study-related positive emotions and academic psychological capital. A sample of 1,054 Chilean high school students (50.4% females) aged 12–17 (M = 14.46, SD = 1.74) participated in the study. Through structural...

Background
Skepticism has traditionally been associated with critical thinking. However, philosophy has proposed a particular type of skepticism, termed naive skepticism, which may increase susceptibility to misinformation, especially when contrasting information from official sources. While some scales propose to measure skepticism, they are scarc...

In this context, fake information without any specific purpose (bullshit) is being spread with ease on social media. It is relevant to identify people's characteristics that could moderate the credibili...

Men who have sex with men (MSM) are one of the populations most likely to be infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) worldwide. Sexual risk behaviors (SRB) are the main route of HIV transmission. Among the factors associated with SRB, internalized homophobia (rejection of one’s sexuality) is a...
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a global health problem, with sexual risk behaviors (SRB) being the main routes of spreading the virus. Evidence indicates that different psychological factors influence SRB (e.g., attitude towards condoms, sexual self-concept, sexual sensation seeking, knowledge of sexual risk behaviors, risk perception). This...
HIV is mainly transmitted through sexual risk behaviors and other associated behavioral factors such as perceived HIV risk, sexual self-concept, and attitude toward condom use, among others. Given that new HIV cases are concentrated in northern Chile, the purpose of this study was to characterize behaviors associated with HIV exposure in a sample o...
Los casos confirmados de VIH/SIDA aumentan año a año. La principal vía de transmisión son las conductas sexuales de riesgo y otros factores comportamentales asociados, como percepción de riesgo de VIH, autoconcepto sexual, actitud hacia el preservativo, entre otros. Dado que en Chile los nuevos casos de VIH se concentran en el norte, el propósito d...
This study aimed to adapt the Flourishing Scale to a Chilean high school context and provide evidence of its validity. Data were collected from 1,348 students (52% girls) from three different Chilean schools. The results of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) supported a one–factor solution, multiple–group CFA supported gender invariance, and struct...
This brief report assessed the psychometric validity and gender invariance of the School Burnout Inventory (SBI) –a measure of students’ exhaustion, cynicism, and inadequacy– in a convenience sample of 972 high school Chilean students ranging between 12 and 18 years old. The results showed that: (1) the SBI produces adequate scores in terms of reli...
Condom use is the most effective preventive behavior against HIV transmission, and its inadequate use is a public health problem that occurs mostly among youth and young adults. Although there are scales that measure condom use, those that exist correspond to English-speaking developments or do not have psychometric evidence to support them, so it...
El Suicidio es un grave problema de salud pública, por lo que evaluar su riesgo es fundamental para su prevención. Si bien existen múltiples factores relacionados, se cuentan con pocos instrumentos psicométricos para la medición conjunta de factores protectores y de riesgo, dificultando una comprensión multidimensional del comportamiento suicida. S...

The final version of the scale has 12 items divided into 2 dimensions: knowledge about risk behaviour; and knowledg...
Since the 19th century, the position of women in the context of higher education has undergone multiple changes, although their incorporation has not been a simple or homogeneous task. Currently, women face new consequential challenges of a globalized world and the notion of market education that characterizes institutions nowadays. One of the grea...

HIV/AIDS is a public health problem that is transmitted through risky sexual behavior. The literature suggests that the perception of HIV risk is a motivator for the prevention of risky sexual behaviors. There is no culturally adapted scale to assess HIV risk perception in the Hispanic-American population. The aim of this research was to develop a...
There is extensive evidence of the effects of precompetitive anxiety (e.g. Bueno, Capdevila,& Fernández-Castro, 2002; Caracuel and Jaenes, 2015) in sports practices and events, as well as the protective role of coping strategies employed by athletes (e.g., Soto, 2003). However, because competitive sports practices differ, among other things, in the...
RESUMEN Existe amplia evidencia de los efectos de la ansiedad precompetitiva (e.g. Bueno, Capdevila y Fernández-Castro, 2002; Caracuel y Jaenes, 2015) en las prácticas y pruebas deportivas, así como del rol protector de las estrategias de afrontamiento que emplean los deportistas (e.g., Soto, 2003). Sin embargo, debido a que las prácticas deportiva...
