(Frontiers in Psychology, 2023) Macía, Laura; Momeñe López, Janire; Macía, Patricia; Herrero Lázaro, Marta; Jauregui Bilbao, Paula; Estévez Gutiérrez, Ana; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar; Trott, Mike
Introduction: Eating disorders (EDs) and behavioural addictions show common psychological vulnerability factors such as alexithymia and stressful life events (SLE). This study aims, firstly, to explore the prevalence and latent profiles of participants based on their risk of suffering EDs, gambling disorder (GD), alcohol and/or drug abuse, and compulsive buying (CB) by sex. Secondly, it aimed to test whether alexithymia and having experienced SLE are associated with group membership. Methods: The sample was predominantly drawn from university students and social networks. It was composed of 352 young adults between 18 and 35 years old, of whom 77.8% were women and 22.2% men. Results: The results showed that the most prevalent disorders of the sample were alcohol, EDs, CB, drugs and GD, respectively. Moreover, latent class analyses were conducted based on the risk of suffering EDs or addictions by sex. Three main profiles were found: ‘Men with addictions’, ‘Healthy women’ and ‘Women with EDs’. Finally, differences in SLE and alexithymia levels were tested by latent classes. “Men with addictions” and “Women with EDs” had higher scores on alexithymia and SLE than the group of “Healthy women”. However, the group of “Women with EDs” (class 3) reported significantly higher levels of SLE and alexithymia than the other two groups. Discussion and conclusion: In conclusion, we discuss the possibility that some vulnerability factors operate generally and transdiagnostically in EDs and addictive disorders. The identification of clinical phenotypes could complement and deepen prediction, prevention and treatment research in clinical settings. The need to take sex and gender differences into account is reinforced.
Buying-shopping disorder, impulsivity, emotional dependence and attachment in adolescents
(Current Psychology, 2023) Etxaburu Azpeitia, Nerea; Momeñe López, Janire; Herrero Lázaro, Marta; Chávez Vera, María Dolores; Olave Porrúa, Leticia María; Estévez Gutiérrez, Ana; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar
In recent years, several studies have shown that the incidence of buying-shopping disorder (BSD) is increasing. Impulsivity is one of the factors involved in its aetiology and is related to emotional dependence. In addition, early affective deprivation may trigger emotional dependence. The aims of the present study weresal: to compare the types of attachment, levels of emotional dependence, impulsivity and BSD according to sex; to determine whether the proposed relational model is fulfilled; and analyse possible differences in this model in terms of the sample’s sex. The sample consisted of 1498 adolescents (53.8% men and 46.2% women) from Ecuador whose age ranged from 14 to 18 years (M = 15.77, SD = 1.21). The results showed that a preoccupied attachment style is indirectly related to a higher risk of BSD due to emotional dependence when impulsivity levels are medium or high because emotional dependence is moderated by impulsivity. The study variables are related in the same way in men and women but boys show higher levels of preoccupied attachment, impulsivity, emotional dependence and BSD. This study gives us a clearer picture of how these variables are related and provides information that could be of great use in assisting people with BSD. This knowledge could be applied to improve both the treatment and prevention of this problem.
Transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral therapy versus treatment asusual in adult patients with emotional disorders in the primarycaresetting (PsicAP Study): protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial
(JMIR research protocols, 2016) Cano Vindel, Antonio; Muñoz Navarro, Roger; Wood, Cristina Mae; Limonero, Joaquín T; Medrano, Leonardo Adrián; Ruiz Rodríguez, Paloma; Gracia Gracia, Irene; Dongil Collado, Esperanza; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar; Chacón Fuertes, Fernando; Santolaya, Francisco
BACKGROUND Demand for primary care (PC) services in Spain exceeds available resources. Part of this strong demand is due to the high prevalence of emotional disorders (EDs)-anxiety, depression, and somatic symptom disorders-and related comorbidities such as pain or chronic illnesses. EDs are often under- or misdiagnosed by general practitioners (GPs) and, consequently, treatment is frequently inadequate. OBJECTIVE We aim to compare the short- and long-term effectiveness of group-delivered transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral therapy (TD-CBT) versus treatment as usual (TAU) in the treatment of EDs in the PC setting in Spain. We also aim to compare the effect of these treatments on disability, quality of life, cognitive-emotional factors, and treatment satisfaction. METHODS Here we present the study design of a two-arm, single-blind, randomized controlled trial (N=1126) to compare TAU to TD-CBT for EDs. TAU will consist primarily of pharmacological treatment and practical advice from the GP while TD-CBT will be administered in seven 90-minute group sessions held over a period ranging from 12 to 14 weeks. Psychological assessments are carried out at baseline (ie, pretreatment); posttreatment; and at 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up. The study is conducted in approximately 26 PC centers from the National Health System in Spain. RESULTS This study was initiated in December 2013 and will remain open to new participants until recruitment and follow-up has been completed. We expect all posttreatment evaluations to be completed by December 2017, and follow-up will end in December 2018. CONCLUSIONS We expect the TD-CBT group to have better results compared to TAU on all posttreatment measures and that this improvement will be maintained during follow-up. This project could serve as a model for use in other areas or services of the National Health System in Spain and even in other countries.

Background and aims Alexithymia and psychological symptomatology have been closely associated with gambling disorder (GD). However, sex differences remain underexplored. This study aims, firstly, to explore the differences between groups (GD and no-GD) and sexes (women vs. men) in alexithymia and psychological symptomatology (depression, anxiety and hostility). Secondly, the relationship between alexithymia and psychological symptomatology was analysed by gambling and sex groups. Thirdly, it examines the moderation role of sex and gambling in the relationship between alexithymia and each psychological symptom. Method The sample was composed of 80 people with GD diagnosis and 80 without GD (40 women and 40 men in each group). Results The results showed that alexithymia is positively related to depression, anxiety and hostility, with significantly higher scores in people with GD. Moderation analyses showed a threefold interaction, in which higher alexithymia was related to higher depression for men with GD but not for GD-women. However, in women with GD, depression levels are higher than in people without GD and tend to be more stable over time, despite the lack of effect of alexithymia. Conclusions These results provide evidence indicating that dysfunctional psychological symptomatology affects people with GD to a greater extent than people without GD, but also that the aetiology and effect of underlying vulnerability factors on gambling is different according to sex. The need of prevention and treatment programmes that consider different psychological aspects depending on sex is reinforced.

El tratamiento psicológico de los desórdenes emocionales en Atención Primaria: análisis de un caso clínico
(Informació Psicológica, 2018) Baquero Tomás, Marina; Modrego Muñoz, María; Morettí, Luciana; González Blanch, César; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar
La prevalencia de desórdenes emocionales (DE) ha aumentado considerablemente en los últimos años. Los servicios de Atención Primaria (AP) son los primeros receptores de la mayoría de pacientes con estas patologías, especialmente las relacionadas con la depresión, la ansiedad y las somatizaciones. En España, la proporción de estos pacientes que recibe un tratamiento mínimamente adecuado es baja, por lo que resulta necesario establecer de protocolos de tratamiento eficientes, basados en la evidencia científica, para el abordaje de los DE. El proyecto PsicAP es un protocolo de intervención grupal fundamentado en el enfoque transdiagnóstico y basado en técnicas cognitivo-conductuales. El objetivo es acercar los tratamientos psicológicos a la AP, facilitando el acceso a un porcentaje elevado de la población. A continuación, se describe el caso clínico de un paciente con un DE que participa en el proyecto PsicAP. El programa, basado en el modelo de tratamiento transdiagnóstico, se desarrolla en 7 sesiones grupales, de hora y media de duración y repartidas en 24 semanas. El programa resulta eficaz en la reducción de la sintomatología clínica, lo que confirma que se trata de un tratamiento breve, de bajo coste y útil para el abordaje de los DE en el contexto de AP.

(Annals of Psychology/Anales de Psicología, 2018) Estévez, Ana; Chávez-Vera, María Dolores; Momeñe, Janire; Olave Porrúa, Leticia María ; Vázquez, Daniel; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar
The emotional dependence has been related with the problems in the impulse control and with the preoccupied attachment style. The objectives of this study are to analyze the relation between the emotional de-pendence, attachment and the impulsive behavior, as well as, to analyze if these final two can predict the emotional dependence. Furthermore, it ana-lyze if the emotional dependence mediate in the relation between attach-ment and impulsivity and, finally, it studies the differences of gender in the three mentioned variables. The sample is formed by 1533 teenagers (707 women and 826 men), with ages between 14-18 years old (M = 15.76; SD = 1.25). The results showed of positives relations between the emotional dependence and the parental permission, childhood trauma and impulsive behavior. Moreover, the impulsivity is positively related with the fact to avoid to be alone, asymmetric relation, the need to please others, parental permission and childhood trauma. In the same way, it proves how the pa-rental permission, self-sufficiency and resentment against parents and childhood trauma can predict the emotional dependence. Finally, it ob-serves how the relation between the attachment and the impulsive behavior is mediated with the emotional dependency and it appreciates differences between the three variables in gender basis.
La dependencia emocional y la resolución de conflictos en heterosexuales, homosexuales y bisexuales
(Revista Española de Drogodependencias, 2019) Rodríguez Pérez, José Gabriel; Momeñe López, Janire; Olave Porrúa, Leticia María; Estévez Gutiérrez, Ana; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar
La dependencia emocional se define como una necesidad afectiva extrema que una persona siente hacia su pareja. Tradicionalmente, la dependencia emocional ha sido estudiada en parejas heterosexuales, si bien en parejas homosexuales y bisexuales es un campo aún desconocido. El propósito del presente estudio va dirigido a conocer las diferencias en la dependencia emocional y en los estilos de resolución de conflictos en jóvenes y adultos en función del género y de la orientación sexual. Asimismo, se analiza el papel predictivo de los estilos de resolución de conflictos sobre la dependencia emocional. La muestra está compuesta por 191 hombres (24.6%), 585 mujeres (75.4%) con edades comprendidas entre los 17 y 61 años (M = 22.30; DT = 6.21). Respecto a la orientación sexual, 93 eran homosexuales (12%), 595 heterosexuales (76.7%) y 88 bisexuales (11.3%). Se han empleado los siguientes instrumentos de evaluación: Conflict Tactics Scales - CTS-2 (Straus, Hamby, Boney-McCoy y Sugarman, 1996) y el Cuestionario de Dependencia Emocional - CDE (Lemos y Londoño, 2006). Los resultados obtenidos muestran una relación positiva entre la dependencia emocional y la violencia tanto ejercida como recibida en las relaciones de pareja. Asimismo, se ha observado cómo los hombres presentan mayor dependencia emocional. Finalmente, los datos sugieren que los homosexuales tienen mayor dependencia emocional en comparación con los heterosexuales y bisexuales, así como, los datos indican que los homosexuales y bisexuales obtienen mayores puntuaciones en la violencia ejercida y recibida que los heterosexuales. Estos resultados se discuten y se presentan las limitaciones del estudio.

(Revista Española de Drogodependencias, 2018) Chávez Vera, María Dolores; Estévez Gutiérrez, Ana; Olave Porrúa, Leticia María; Momeñe López, Janire; Vázquez Estévez, Daniel; Iruarrizaga Díez, María Icíar
La adolescencia es una etapa del desarrollo compleja que en ocasiones puede estar marcada por un aumento de impulsividad donde se comienzan a establecer las primeras relaciones de pareja. Al mismo tiempo la impulsividad está estrechamente relacionada con el consumo de sustancias y conductas adictivas. Por ello el objetivo de la presente investigación ha sido observar la relación que existe entre la impulsividad, el consumo de sustancias, las conductas adictivas y la dependencia emocional en una muestra formada por 1533 adolescentes ecuatorianos, con edades comprendidas entre los 14 y los 18 años, y validar los instrumentos de evaluación la Escala de Dependencia Emocional en el Noviazgo de Jóvenes y Adolescentes (DEN; Urbiola, Estévez e Iraurgi, 2014) y el MULTICAGE CAD 4 (Pedrero Pérez et al., 2007). De entre los resultados se pueden encontrar buenas propiedades psicométricas para ambos instrumentos, habiendo resultado adecuados para evaluar dependencia emocional y adicciones en población adolescente ecuatoriana. Por otro lado, se han obtenido relaciones estadísticamente significativas entre las variables estudiadas, y se discute la relación que guarda la impulsividad, el consumo de alcohol y el consumo de sustancias y la dependencia emocional.
