Purpose – This paper aims to analyze the degree of implementation of corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies in the Spanish financial system. Design/methodology/approach – The study includes nine entities within the same organizational field to explore the pressure mechanisms that can affect the behavior of organizations. Findings – It concludes that the strategic nature of CSR is limited by the highly institutionalized character of this practice, a fact that causes isomorphic social structures among the approaches to responsibility of diverse entities. Originality/value – The results obtained are of great value to those responsible for the management bodies, as they show evidence of the need for a new approach to corporate governance policies if it is to achieve a competitive advantage in the industry, especially in the case of savings banks, where social work can play a fundamental role.
El Cuestionario de Conducta de Alimentación de Adultos (AEBQ, por su sigla en inglés derivada de Adult Eating Behavior Questionnaire) es una de las herramientas psicométricas más usadas para evaluar la conducta de alimentación. El objetivo de este estudio fue adaptar y analizar factorialmente la versión en idioma español del AEBQ. El cuestionario adaptado al idioma español se aplicó en un estudio piloto de 50 voluntarias universitarias entre 20 y 30 años de edad. Se utilizó la técnica de análisis factorial para reducir la dimensionalidad de los datos y evaluar preliminarmente su estructura. Se usó la estadística alfa de Cronbach para explorar la consistencia interna del cuestionario adaptado. El análisis factorial reveló una estructura de 8 factores que explican el 82,8 % de la variación de los datos, lo que es concordante con el número de dimensiones de la conducta de alimentación publicada para el AEBQ original. La consistencia interna fue alta, con valores de la estadística α de Cronbach entre 0,77 y 0,91 para las 8 dimensiones consideradas. En conclusión, la versión adaptada al idioma español del AEBQ presenta una razonable concordancia en su estructura de datos con el cuestionario publicado originalmente en inglés, así como una adecuada consistencia interna. Se deben realizar futuros estudios de mayor tamaño muestral que incluyan participantes de diferentes grupos de edad, sexo y estado nutricional. The Adult Eating Behavior Questionnaire (AEBQ) is one the most used psychometric tool to evaluate eating behavior. The objective of this study was to adapt and analyze the factorial structure of the Spanish version of the AEBQ. The adapted questionnaire was submitted to a non-probabilistic sample of 50 female university students aged 20 - 30 years old. A factorial analysis was used to preliminary assess data structure, while Cronbach's alpha statistic was used to assess internal consistency. Factor analysis revealed an8-factor structure explaining 82,8% of data variation, which is concordant with data structure of the original AEBQ. The internal consistency was high, with Cronbach's α between 0.77 and 0.91 for all eating behavior dimensions. In conclusion, this Spanish version of the AEBQ shows adequate concordance with the factor structure of the originally published AEBQ, as well as high internal consistency. Future studies will evaluate the validity of the questionnaire in different subpopulation groups according to gender, age or nutritional status
ABSTRACT:The recent exponential increase in the number of people in situations of dependency and demand for social, health and residential coverage in Europe currently presents a troubling demographic forecast. This article describes the peculiarities of the Spanish care model within the European context. In order to do this, we review previous analyses that show the differences in the dependency care in European countries, such as the form of residence of its beneficiaries or the capacity of social networks to meet their care needs. Then, we proceed to present the purposes underlying the Spanish legal framework, as well as its strengths and limitations. The findings suggest that the universal model implemented in Spain could serve as referent for the European context, although this depends on the social models of coexistence and prior context in which the dependency occurs.KEYWORDS: Dependency Care; Aging; Personal Autonomy; Informal Caregivers; Legislative Analysis of Dependency. RESUMEN: Europa presenta en la actualidad unas previsiones demográficas preocupantes, incrementando exponencialmente el número de las personas en situación de dependencia y su demanda de cobertura social, sanitaria y residencial. En este contexto europeo, creemos oportuno destacar el modelo de atención español, señalando sus particularidades. Para ello, en primer lugar, hemos realizado una revisión de los análisis que profundizan en las divergencias de la atención a la dependencia en los países europeos, como la forma de residencia de este sector poblacional o la capacidad de las redes sociales de cubrir sus necesidades de atención. En segundo lugar, procedemos a exponer las pretensiones del marco legislativo español, así como sus fortalezas y limitaciones. Las conclusiones apuntan a que el modelo universal implantado en España pudiera ser un referente en el contexto europeo, aunque ello dependerá de sus modelos sociales de convivencia y el contexto previo en que se desenvuelva la dependencia.PALABRAS CLAVE: Atención a la dependencia; envejecimiento; autonomía personal; cuidadores informales; análisis legislativo de la dependencia.
