    Efficacy of music therapy in the treatment of anxiety among children at social risk and those have committed child to parent violence
    (Psychology of music, 2022) Pérez Eizaguirre, Miren; Dorado Barbé, Ana Isabel; Rodríguez-Brioso Pérez, María Del Mar; Privado Zamorano, Jesús
    The purpose of this research is to analyze the significant impact music therapy can have on a group of adolescents who have committed Child to Parent Violence and a second group of teenagers at social risk. Both groups were made up of 11 participants between 13 and 21 years of age (M = 16 years, SD = 1.66 years) with six males in each group. Both groups participated in eight music therapy interventions where state-trait anxiety levels were measured before and after each session. Furthermore, trait anxiety levels were measured after the first and eighth sessions. Our findings indicate that the treatment used performs differently in each group: a more significant reduction in state anxiety levels was observed among participants who had used Child to Parent Violence, where trait anxiety levels were more significantly reduced among participants at social risk. Our findings also indicate that music therapy can be effectively used to reduce anxiety levels among socially vulnerable groups, and that it may have a significant impact on the reduction of this disorder, depending on the anxiety level

    Predictive Model of Anxiety and Depression Perception in Multiple Sclerosis Patients: Possible Implications for Clinical Treatment
    (Bioengineering, 2024) Cuerda Ballester, María; Bustos, Antonio; Sancho Cantus, David; Martínez Rubio, David; Privado Zamorano, Jesús; Alarcón Jiménez, Jorge; Villarón Casales, Carlos; Bernardo Tejedor, Nieves De; Navarro Illana, Esther; Rubia Ortí, José Enrique De La
    Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms, including emotional distress, anxiety, and depression. These emotional symptoms currently have a pharmacological treatment with limited effectiveness; therefore, it is necessary to delve into their relationship with other psychological, functional, or prefrontal alterations. Additionally, exploring non-pharmacological therapeutic alternatives that have shown benefits in addressing emotional distress in MS patients is essential. Aim: To establish a predictive model for the presence of anxiety and depression in MS patients, based on variables such as psychological well-being, functional activity, and prefrontal symptoms. Additionally, this study aimed to propose non-pharmacological therapeutic alternatives based on this model. Materials and Methods: A descriptive, observational, and cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 64 diagnosed MS patients who underwent functional and cognitive assessments using the following questionnaires and scales: Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ), Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (AAQ-II), Experiences Questionnaire (EQ), Self-Compassion Scale Short Form (SCS-SF), Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and Prefrontal Symptoms Inventory (PSI). Results: The model showed an excellent fit to the data and indicated that psychological well-being was the most significant predictor of the criteria (β = −0.83), followed by functional activity (β = −0.18) and prefrontal symptoms (β = 0.15). The latter two are negatively related to psychological well-being (β = −0.16 and β = −0.75, respectively). Conclusions: Low psychological well-being is the variable that most significantly predicts the presence of anxiety and depression in MS patients, followed by functional activity and prefrontal alterations. Interventions based on mindfulness and acceptance are recommended, along with nutritional interventions such as antioxidant-enriched ketogenic diets and moderate group physical exercise.
