Ajuste psicológico y vida religiosa en Adultos Mayores

El objetivo fue aportar evidencia empírica basada en una muestra latinoamericana, en relación con los controvertidos resultados en muestras anglosajonas, con respecto al papel de la vida religiosa como recurso adaptativo. Los resultados permiten concluir un papel marginal de la vida espirit… Show more

“…Nevertheless, morality and cooperation entail social-cognitive processes involving theory of mind (ToM), intentionality, and a sense of community all present among atheists, as well as sophisticated interventions among support groups and healthcare institutions (Bering, 2002). These cognitive social processes and contexts may favor existential feelings, allowing for affective relations with other people and with the world (Slaby and Stephan, 2008), and constitute spaces of respect where non-religious points of view can be expressed as transcendental, moral and empathic attitudes linked to an individual's spiritual well-being based on love, responsibility, and solidarity (Norenzayan and Gervais, 2013;Rivera-Ledesma and Montero-López, 2014).During the last decade, neurocognitive substrates of religiosity have been researched by using neuroimaging, a set of noninvasive techniques to study the function of human brain by using different instruments. One of these techniques is the called event-related potentials (ERP), which uses electroencephalographic instruments to register the bioelectrical brain signals then decoded as waves and obtained from electrodes located in the surface of the head while an individual performs sensorial, motor, or cognitive tasks.…”

“…These so-called spiritual elements are not only related to a belief in God or with the practice of an organized religion but to a satisfaction with one's own life. Thus, they may be considered as adaptive resources when analyzing how people deal with psychological troubles (McConnell et al, 2006;Koenig, 2009;Rivera-Ledesma and Montero-López, 2014). Further, social and evolutionary analyses have pointed to the possible role that certain moral aspects of religiosity play in facilitating cooperative behaviors to alleviate the suffering of other people (Bulbulia and Schjoedt, 2013).…”

“…En el contexto de los cuidados paliativos el tema de las necesidades espirituales de los pacientes cobra aun mayor importancia (5,9,10) ya que, constituyen una de las áreas de atención en pacientes y familias que se enfrentan a enfermedades graves, tal como lo reconoce la Organización Mundial de la Salud (11) . Sin embargo, no se cuenta con estrategias formales para su evaluación y manejo, ya que se priorizan las necesidades físicas de los pacientes (2,9,(12)(13)(14)(15) debido a que estos manifiestan con mayor frecuencia y facilidad síntomas como el dolor físico u otras molestias, pero rara vez externan sus necesidades espirituales (2,7,14,16) . Esta es la realidad cotidiana en las unidades de cuidados paliativos, en la que tanto los pacientes como sus familias se ven constantemente confrontados con la muerte, lo que puede motivar la necesidad de abordar no sólo el sufrimiento físico.…”

“…Con respecto a los profesionales de salud y espiritualidad, se han realizado estudios que analizan la postura personal y ejercicio de los profesionales de la salud, ante las necesidades espirituales de sus pacientes. Se ha encontrado que esta población admite la necesidad de la atención de los aspectos espirituales; de igual forma se reconoce a la espiritualidad como un recurso del paciente ante la situación de enfermedad y/o la muerte (4,5,8,12,13,19,20) . Además se reporta que algunos profesionales de la salud, consideran que la atención de estas necesidades debería ser proporcionada por personas especializadas (1,5,13) .…”
