This book presents investigative advances in psychology related to the lines of research of the Department of Psychology of the Catholic University of Colombia, whose central purpose is the generation of new knowledge with social repercussions. In this sense, the studies presented within the framework of the lines of Educational Psychology, Clinical Psychology, Health and Addictions, Psychobiological and Behavioral Processes, Legal Psychology and Criminology, Social, Political and Community Psychology, and Research Methods applied to the behavioral sciences, although oriented from different perspectives and methodologies, they unite in the same purpose: to strengthen their approach towards problems of social relevance without losing their contribution to psychological discipline. As a consequence, this book presents an enriched thematic variety directly related to the lines of research such as credibility of the testimony, adolescent domestic violence, cognitive training in older adults, family functioning and quality of life, emotional reparation in survivors of sexual violence in the middle of the Colombian armed conflict, dissatisfaction with body image, relational therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy in victims of the Colombian armed conflict, the relationship between physical activity and academic performance, and organizational change. The results of the studies can be problematized and vitalized in different application contexts.
Los trastornos del espectro autista (TEA) son una categoría diagnóstica del DSM-V que engloba el autismo, el síndrome de Asperger y los trastornos generalizados y no especificados del desarrollo. La teoría de marcos relacionales (RFT) plantea que los déficits en la comunicación e interacción social presentes en los TEA surgen por un déficit en el establecimiento de los repertorios de conducta relacional del individuo, debido a la forma en que el ambiente configura las contingencias que los establecen y mantienen en nuevos contextos y situaciones. El entrenamiento relacional permite fomentar habilidades relacionales por medio del establecimiento de relaciones arbitrarias entre estímulos abstractos o familiares de cara al mejoramiento de la proficiencia verbal y cognitiva del participante. La presente revisión describe las características principales, los procedimientos y los resultados obtenidos en estudios que presentan la aplicación de protocolos de entrenamiento relacional para el mejoramiento de alguna habilidad relacional en niños, niñas y adolescentes diagnosticados con TEA.
