“…Cronbach's alpha obtained with our population showed an acceptable internal consistency (.77) (González et al, 2009). Validation in the Spanish population shows adequate psychometric characteristics, with a Cronbach's alpha of .85 (Vázquez-Morejón, Vázquez-Morejón, & Bellido Zanin, 2018). In the present study Cronbach´s alpha coefficient was .81.…”

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by presenting problems such as executive dysfunction and behavioral problems. Within the executive functions (EF) a warm area and a cold area can be differentiated; the latter is the most studied, although recent research points to a primary deficit in warm EFs or decision-making in ASD. In the present study, the symptomatology analyzed that accompanies ASD influencing «hot» EFs, or decision-making capacity. The sample consisted of 31 adults with intellectual disability and ASD, with an average mental age of 4.74. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that the executive dysfunction, more specifically the mechanisms of inhibition (impulsive system), was a significant predictor of decision making by adults with ASD.

“…The Behaviour Problem Inventory ( BPI , Vázquez-Morejón et al, 2005, 2018): Was designed to evaluate behaviour problems in patients with psychotic disorders. It has 14 items and three dimensions: underactivity/social withdrawal (scored from 0 to 15), active problems (scored from 0 to 15) and lack of impulse control (scored from 0 to 12).…”

Background: In recent years, several variables in the course of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders have been studied. However, an instrumental analysis of the evolution of social functioning and behaviour problems has scarcely been explored. Aim: To analyse the evolution of social functioning and behaviour problems and find any diagnosis or gender differences. Method: The Social Functioning Scale (SFS) and the Behaviour Problems Inventory (BPI) were administered in Stages I (2003–2007) and II (2014–2017) to 100 close relatives of patients under treatment at a Community Mental Health Unit. A related samples t-test, analysis of variance and multivariate analysis of variance were performed to study the evolution and differences in social functioning and behaviour problems. Then a stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was done to predict the evolution of social functioning. Results: No deterioration in the evolution of social functioning or behaviour problems was observed, and schizophrenia patient scores were lower. Women scored higher in withdrawal/social engagement, interpersonal behaviour, independence-performance, independence-competence and total social functioning, with no significant differences in behaviour problems. Previous social functioning, underactivity/social withdrawal and education are predictive factors in the evolution of social functioning. Conclusion: The results show the need for implementing psychosocial intervention programs that promote functional recovery and keep problems from becoming chronic.

“…The diversity of results underlines how these clinical variables can become unspecific, as patients with the same diagnosis have different symptoms (APA, 2013), which is the main reason studies focus on elements common to all, such as affectation in social functioning (Carpenter & Strauss, 1991), behavior problems (Vázquez-Morejón et al, 2018), and family burden (Awad & Voruganti, 2008;Möller-Leimkühler & Wiesheu, 2012).…”

“…Previous studies have explored the relationship between behavior problems and levels of autonomy (Wykes, 1982), family burden (Othman & Salleh, 2008), and family's capacity for coping (Vázquez-Morejón et al, 2013). However, there is little knowledge of the differences in behavior problems by gender and their relationship with family burden.…”

“…Temporal reliability measured by the total score of behavior problems in 28 patients was satisfactory (r = .82, p < .001). Furthermore, empirical evidence shows significant correlations supporting both concurrent validity with the Social Behaviour Schedule (SBS) and construct validity with the Social Functioning Scale (SFS) (Vázquez-Morejón et al, 2018).…”

Gender Influence on severe Mental Disorders: Relationship between Behavior Problems and Family Burden

et al. 2021

The study of severe mental disorders has a very relevant place in mental health due to its psychopathological richness and variability, their transfer to behavioral problems (Wykes & Sturt, 1986), and their personal, family, social, and economic impact (Jin & Mosweu, 2017). In this context, gender is a variable which has been acquiring relevance in the study and understanding of severe mental disorders (Jiménez-García-Bóveda & Vázquez-Morejón, 2012; Ordóñez et al., 2016). Due to discrimination undergone by the female population insofar as research on their needs (Goldstein & Tsuang, 1990; Hosang & Bhui, 2018) and the influence which stereotyped roles of males appear to exert (assumption of more risk conduct, use of violence, dominance over others, etc.) on the psychopathology of men (Mahalik et al., 2003; Tager et al., 2010), in recent years a need has arisen to progress in understanding the impact of gender on severe mental disorders. From this perspective, the inclusion of a gendersensitive focus is pertinent for early detection, evaluation, and clinical intervention adjusted to individual needs. Other studies focusing on gender differences have found more externalizing disorders in men and internalizing in women (Zahn-Waxler et al., 2008). Traditionally, study has concentrated on clinical variables (prodromal, duration of untreated psychosis, positive and Clínica y Salud (2021) xx(x) xx-xx
