This study examined the relationship between childhood abuse experiences and health anxiety in adulthood and investigated the role of attachment in this relationship. In total, 181 university students (aged 18–29 years) completed a battery of measures that assessed childhood abuse, health anxiety, and attachment orientation. Health anxiety was associated with all categories of childhood abuse and overall childhood abuse severity. Anxious attachment partially mediated the relationship between overall childhood abuse and health anxiety in adulthood. The results further our understanding of the relationship between childhood abuse and health anxiety in adulthood and provide support for the interpersonal model of health anxiety.

Abstract.GENDER MODELS IN THE SPANISH UNIVERSITY STUDENT: A FOCUS ON SELF-SERVICE AND GENDER RELATIONS.This paper presents the results concerning the resistance of normative gender models of masculinity and femininity in the self-perception and gender relations of Spanish students, as one of the specific objectives of the research “gender models among university students from an intercultural perspective”. This research, which is part of the IRSES Gendercit European project, has the general objective of study from an intercultural perspective current gender models in Argentinian, Italian and Spanish university students. This research is carried out from an approach that understands gender from a relational perspective and uses gender models as indicators of the resistance of a patriarchal culture that hinders the achievement of substantial equality between men and women that the law 3/2007, of 22 March, promotes in Spain. Furthermore, the questionnaire on gender models, used in this research, and the results related to self-perception and gender relations in the Spanish sample, composed of 198 undergraduate students, are presented. In the conclusions, we show how the differential resistance of gender models in men and women in self-perception, may be related to gender relations’ modalities and forms and to the causes of their main differences. The analysis of these elements allows us to deepen the understanding of the resistances and dynamics of the sex-gender system in an educational context, such as the university, so important for the construction of a more egalitarian society.Key words: gender equality, university students, self identity, gender relations.Resumen.En esta ponencia se presentan los resultados relativos a la resistencia de los modelos de género normativos de masculinidad y feminidad en la autopercepción y las relaciones de género de los/las estudiantes españoles/as, como uno de los objetivos específicos de la investigación “Los modelos de género entre el alumnado universitario desde una perspectiva intercultural”. Esta investigación, que es parte del proyecto europeo IRSES Gendercit, tiene como objetivo general el estudio desde una perspectiva intercultural de los actuales modelos de género en las y los estudiantes universitarios/as de Italia, España y Argentina. La misma se desarrolla a partir de un enfoque que entiende el género desde una perspectiva relacional y utiliza a los modelos de género como medidores de la resistencia de una cultura patriarcal que dificulta el conseguimiento de la igualdad sustancial entre hombres y mujeres, que en el contexto español promueve la ley 3/2007, de 22 de Marzo. A continuación, se presenta el cuestionario sobre modelos de género, utilizado en esta investigación, y los resultados relativos a la autopercepción y a la percepción de los demás en la muestra española, compuesta por 198 estudiantes de grado. En las conclusiones, se evidencia como la resistencia diferencial de los modelos de género en hombres y mujeres en la autopercepción de si, puede estar relacionadas con las modalidades y las formas que adquieren las relaciones de género entre los sexos y las causas de sus principales diferencias por sexo. El análisis de estos elementos nos permite así profundizar en la comprensión de las resistencias y de las dinámicas del sistema sexo-género en un contexto educativo, como el universitario, tan importante para la construcción de una sociedad igualitaria.Palabras clave: igualdad de género, estudiantes universitarios, identidad, relaciones de género

The aim of this investigation is to assess the correlation among different competencies-assessment systems available on the market to measure social skills in the university environment. In order to carry out the research, three self-perception competency tests were used, and 30 competencies were evaluated in a Likert scale with several response levels: the LPA-Q, the ESCI-U, and the CompeUEM. The three questionnaires were completed by 57 university students. The results show a low degree of agreement among the different questionnaires in relation to measuring the same competencies, as well as an unclear factor structure.
