La presencia de la actividad física-deportiva en la vida social, ha llevado a las Ciencias Sociales a estudiar este fenómeno desde lo social, lo económico y lo cultural; aportando así a las disciplinas de las áreas biológica y de la salud. El objetivo de esta investigación fue traducir al español, adaptar y validar en el escenario mexicano el cuestionario de autoeficacia para regular el ejercicio de Bandura en estudiantes universitarios. La muestra del estudio fue de 241 estudiantes de Psicología (60.2%) y de Trabajo Social (39.8%) de una universidad pública en el noroeste de México, elegidos a través de un muestreo no probabilístico, de los cuales 88% fueron mujeres. El 30.3% de la muestra cursaba el segundo semestre, 24.1% tercer semestre, 15.4% cuarto semestre, 17.4% quinto semestre, 1.7% sexto semestre y 11.2% séptimo semestre, al momento de la aplicación. En los resultados el análisis factorial confirmatorio (AFC) reveló adecuados valores de bondad de ajuste teórica y práctica. El factor de autoeficacia para regular el ejercicio quedó conformado por siete variables manifiestas. El análisis de consistencia interna posterior al AFC arrojó un alfa de .84. Se puede concluir que la versión en español del cuestionario de autoeficacia para regular el ejercicio adaptada al contexto mexicano con estudiantes universitarios, es un instrumento fiable y válido que puede aplicarse a muestras similares. Abstract. The presence of physical-sports activity in social life has led social sciences to studying this phenomenon from a social, economic, and cultural point of view, contributing to the disciplines of biological and health areas. The purpose of this research was to translate, adapt, and validate the questionnaire for self-efficacy to regulate the practice of Bandura in university students from a Mexican context. The participants were 241 students (88% women) enrolled in the psychology (60.2%) and social work programs (39.8%) from a public university in northwestern Mexico. Participants were chosen through non-probabilistic sampling. They were divided among the following semesters: 30.3% in second semester, 24.1% in third semester, 15.4% in fourth semester, 17.4% fifth semester, 1.7% sixth semester, and 11.4% in seventh semester at the time of the application. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) revealed values of goodness of theoretical and practical adjustment. The self-efficacy factor to regulate exercise was composed by seven manifest variables. The internal consistency analysis after the CFA yielded an alpha of .84. It can be concluded that the Spanish version of the questionnaire of self-efficacy to regulate exercise adapted to a Mexican context with university students, is a reliable and valid instrument that can be applied to similar participants or contexts.

Abstract.We conducted some researches in order to explore “fields” or dimensions of elderly people’s Quality of Life (QoL), both as self-perception and hetero-perception. A set of researches were conducted in Italy and Spain, involving seniors and university students. The aim was to explore the seniors’ QoL from both their and the students’ point of view. Results showed elderly people perceived their own life better than the “other” attributed to them; they were quite good at managing Positive and Negative Emotions. Spanish university students represented more positively the elderly people’s QoL than Italian colleagues. A Positive Affect as well as an empathic attitude towards seniors affected a better representation about elderly people’s QoL. Another set of studies was focused on the elderly people’s QoL and New Technologies (NTs) as these may offer opportunities both to maintain an independent lifestyle and to being involved in relevant activities. Most participants had nor any digital skills neither prejudices on the NTs; the perceived QoL was quite positive; Self-Efficacy believes were really high. The QoL was affected only by Self-Efficacy. A workshop was held, involving a small group of both disabled and healthy seniors; it was focused on the NTs, as tools to promote an active citizenship. After Training our seniors improved their Digital Skills and their own Quality of Life. In the end, a study was conducted in order to verify how both empathy (Empatic Concern; Perspective Taking), Theory on Mind (RMET) and contact worked well to improve QoL levels attributed to elders by a group of university students. On an applicative plan, empathy and TOM should represent the backdrop in supervised experiences of contact between students and elders. Further research will be conduct on this path.Key-Words: Active ageing; Quality of Life; Social Representations; Contact; Empathy.

El estudio de los perfiles motivacionales proporciona información detallada sobre los hábitos de los grupos de personas hacia la práctica de la actividad física, permitiendo poder fomentar una motivación más positiva y conseguir una mayor adherencia a la práctica. Así el objetivo de este estudio ha sido clarificar cuáles son las motivaciones frente a la práctica de actividad físico-deportiva de una muestra de jóvenes universitarios, incidiendo especialmente en las actividades náuticas. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 1011 estudiantes de la Universidad de Almería (España). El instrumento utilizado fue el cuestionario de hábitos físicos-deportivos y de práctica de deportes náuticos. Los resultados obtenidos apuntan que los principales motivos para desarrollar la práctica deportiva fueron la flexibilidad horaria y una adecuada a la disponibilidad de su tiempo libre, seguido de la cercanía a su domicilio de las instalaciones. Otros motivos son por diversión, o estar con su grupo de amigos. Respecto a las actividades náuticas, se decide practicar o no sólo porque les gustan, seguido del interés por estar en contacto con el medio natural y acuático. Las modalidades náuticas más practicadas son el piragüismo y la natación. En relación al abandono de la práctica deportiva, claramente se produce por la falta de tiempo por el estudio o el trabajo. Es evidente que la falta de tiempo por los estudios o por el trabajo, perjudica gravemente la adherencia a la actividad física, pero existen porcentajes muy altos de personas (62%) que admiten no practicar por pereza y desgana, por lo que se deben buscar nuevas estrategias de motivación para que aumente la adherencia a la actividad físico deportiva.Palabras clave: Motivación, práctica de actividad física y deportiva, actividades náuticas, hábitos físicos y deportivos, universitarios. Motivations of the University students in the physical and sports practice of free time. The nautical activitiesABSTRACTThe study of motivational profiles provides detailed information on the habits of groups of people to the practice of physical activity, allowing fostering a more positive motivation and achieving greater adherence to practice. So the aim of this study was to clarify the motivations are against the practice of physical and sporting a sample of university students, with special emphasis on water sports activity. The sample consisted of 1011 students from the University of Almeria (Spain). The instrument used was the questionnaire physical - sporting habits and water sports. The results indicate that the main reasons for developing sport and flexible hours were adequate to the availability of leisure, followed by proximity to your home facilities. Other reasons are for fun, or to be with his Universitarios y actividades náuticas © Psy, Soc, & Educ, 2016, Vol. 8(3) 230 friends. Concerning water activities, it was decided not to practice or just because they like them, followed by the wish to be in contact with the natural aquatic environment. The most practiced nautical activities are canoeing and swimming. In relation to the abandonment of the sport is clearly caused by the lack of time for study or work. Clearly the lack of time for study or work, seriously undermines adherence to physical activity, but there are very high percentages (62 %) who admit no laziness and unwillingness to practice, so you should seek new motivational strategies to increase adherence to physical activity sports.Keywords: Motivation; practice of physical and sports activity; nautical activities; Physical and sports habits; university student.

"Given its significant negative consequences for university students, procrastination has been studied extensively and shown to be associated with conscientiousness as a personality trait. Involving 333 university students doing teacher training programmes (68.5% female; Mage=20.51 (SD=1.61); 83.48% undergraduates doing a bachelor’s degree), our study aimed to explore the association between procrastination among more/less conscientious students and selected self-concept variables (self-control, self-efficacy, etc.). Our questionnaire was based on the Ten-Item Personality Inventory (Gosling, Rentfrow, Swann, 2003), the Self-Control Scale (Finkenauer, Engels, Baumeister, 2005), the Self-efficacy Scale (Ko?š, Hefteyova, Schwarzer, Jerusalem, 1993), and the Procrastination Scale for Student Populations (Gabrhelík, 2008); our control variables were gender and well- being (Subjective Well-Being Scale, Chan-Hoong, Soon, 2011). The sample was divided into two groups – (1) less conscientious and (2) more conscientious) – using the method of visual binning in SPSS 20. A t-test for independent samples and linear regression were used for data analysis. The less conscientious students in our sample reported a higher level of procrastination (t=6.479; df=310; p?0.001; Cohen's d=0.681). A linear model was conducted for both groups (the dependent variable being the level of procrastination, the independent variables being gender and the levels of self-control, self-efficacy, and well-being). Both models were significant ((1) F=8.449; p?0.001; R2=32.6; (2) F= 7.277; p?0.001; R2=25.7). Among the less conscientious students, the levels of self-control (?=-0.546; t=-5.262; p?0.001) and self-efficacy (?=-0.238; t=-2.092; p?0.001) were negatively associated with procrastination. Among the more conscientious students, the level of self-control (?=0.404; t=-3.929; p?0.001) was negatively associated with procrastination and “being a man” (0–man; 1–woman) (?=-0.307; t=-3.219; p?0.05) was significantly associated with the level of procrastination. The results of our study show trait and personality differences in the level of procrastination, highlighting the importance of self-control and self-efficacy development among university students. Interactive programmes with an impact on students’ self-concept can be a significant contribution to students’ ability to cope with their study requirements effectively. It could be argued that the limits of this study include cross-sectional and self-reported data."

Abstract.GENDER DIFFERENCES IN EFFECTIVE PERSONALITY IN CHILEAN UNIVERSITY STUDENTSEffective Personality is a multidimensional construct, which has a psychometrically confirmed structure, developed by Dr. Martin del Buey and Dr. Martín Palacio. Effective Personality consists of four areas of Self: Strengths, Demands, Challenges and Relationships. In the present communication we want to study if there are, at gender level, statistically significant differences in the construct of Effective Personality in Chilean university students. The sample consists of 736 students from four universities in the fifth region of Chile. 517 women (70.2%) and 219 men (29.8%) participated. For evaluation Effective Personality Questionnaire-University (CPE-U) (Dapelo and Martín del Buey, 2006) was used. This tool has four subscales: Self-Esteem, Self-Empowerment Academy, Antitrust Self-efficacy and Social Self-realization. After analyzing relevant data, it was found that there were significant differences in factors: Selfesteem (t = -3.039, p = .002), Academic Self-Realization (t = 2.331, p = .020), and Antitrust Self-Efficacy (t = -3.464, p = .001). However, we found no significant differences in Social Self-Realization (t = -, 967, p =, 334). Women got a higher average in the Academic Self-realization factor, while the group of men shows a higher average than women in factors Esteem, Antitrust Self-Efficacy and Social Self-Realization, although in the latter the gender differences are not statistically significant.Keywords.

En la presente comunicación se pretende estudiar si existen, a nivel de género, diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el constructo de Personalidad Eficaz en los estudiantes universitarios chilenos. La muestra está formada por 736 estudiantes de cuatro universidades de la quinta región de Chile. Participaron 517 mujeres (70.2%) y 219 hombres (29.8%). Para realizar la evaluación se empleó el Cuestionario Personalidad Eficaz-Universidad (CPE-U) (Dapelo y Martín del Buey, 2006). Esta herramienta cuenta con cuatro subescalas: Autoestima; Autorrealización Académica; Autoeficacia Resolutiva y Autorrealización Social. Tras el análisis de datos correspondientes, se encontró que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas en los factores de: Autoestima (t=-3,039, p=,002); Autorrealización Académica (t=2,331, p= ,020); y Autoeficacia Resolutiva (t= -3,464, p= ,001). Sin embargo, se encontró que no hay diferencias significativas en Autorrealización Social (t= -,967, p= ,334). Las mujeres presentan medias superiores en el factor Autorrealización Académica; mientras que el grupo de los hombres muestra una media superior a las mujeres en los factores Autoestima; Autoeficacia Resolutiva y Autorrealización Social, aunque en éste último las discrepancias por género no son significativas estadísticamente.Palabras Clave.

Abstract.SELF-EFFICACY IN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE DEGREE IN PRIMARY EDUCATION AND SCIENCE DEGREESThere are many contexts in which the emotions, and the smart use of them, are necessary for the full development of the person. But without a doubt, and relative to the field in which we find ourselves, emotional competencies play a very important role in education. We must bear in mind that emotions have a very important role in learning and is currently considered that the cognitive configures the affective and emotional the cognitive. Learn how influences the affective domain in university students and teachers in initial training is a matter of great importance to teacher training and the education system Through the use of a quantitative method, and more particularly of a cross-sectional design, the objective our study was to evaluate the level of self-efficacy in a sample of 358 students of the Grade of Elementary Master and Science Grades of the University of Extremadura by adaptation of Sanjuan, Perez and Bermudez (2000) of the scale of General self-efficacy of Baessler and Schwarzer (1996). The results confirm that there were significant differences in self-efficacy level according to the degree in which it students are enrolled.Keywords: self-efficacy, emotions, university students, initial teacher education, teaching science.Resumen.Son numerosos los contextos en los que las emociones, y el uso inteligente de las mismas, son necesarias para el desarrollo íntegro de la persona. Pero sin duda alguna, y en relación al campo en el que nosotros nos encontramos, las competencias emocionales juegan un papel muy importante en la educación. Debemos tener en cuenta que las emociones tienen un papel muy importante en el aprendizaje y actualmente se considera que lo cognitivo configura lo afectivo y lo afectivo lo cognitivo. Conocer cómo influye el dominio afectivo en los estudiantes universitarios y en el profesorado en formación inicial es un tema de gran importancia para la formación docente y el sistema educativo. Mediante una metodología cuantitativa, y más concretamente a partir de un diseño transversal, en nuestra investigación se pretende evaluar el nivel de autoeficacia en una muestra constituida por 358 estudiantes del Grado de Maestro en Educación y Grados en Ciencias de la Universidad de Extremadura mediante adaptación de Sanjuán, Pérez y Bermúdez (2000) de la Escala de Autoeficacia General de Baessler y Schwarzer (1996). Los resultados obtenidos permitieron afirmar que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el nivel autoeficacia según el grado en el que se encuentran matriculados los estudiantes universitarios.Palabras clave: autoeficacia, emociones, estudiantes universitarios, maestros en formación inicial, enseñanza de las ciencias.

 Los factores que influyen en los niveles de actividad física son muchos, sin embargo, es necesario identificar aquellos que pueden ser modificables, entre ellos están las variables sociocognitivas. El objetivo general de esta investigación fue analizar la relación entre el autoconcepto físico, motivación, autoeficacia y percepción de barreras para la actividad física, y el bienestar subjetivo con el nivel de actividad física en estudiantes universitarios. Se utilizó un diseño predictivo transversal y participaron 362 estudiantes de Educación Superior de una región del centro sur de Chile. Para responder a los objetivos se utilizó un Modelo de Ecuaciones Estructurales, específicamente el modelo Probit adecuado para regresiones ordinales. Los resultados mostraron que: (1) la autoeficacia para la práctica de actividad física, la falta de tiempo, falta de voluntad, falta de habilidad, el autoconcepto de condición física y el autoconcepto físico de fuerza predijeron significativamente el nivel de práctica de actividad física; (2) el nivel de actividad física media la relación entre las variables sociocognitivas y la afectividad positiva. Es posible concluir que las variables sociocognitivas influyen en los niveles de actividad física de estudiantes universitarios y esta última influye en su bienestar. Abstract: The factors that influence physical activity levels are many, however, it is necessary to identify those that can be modified, among them are the sociocognitive variables. The general objective of this research was to analyze the relationship between physical self-concept, motivation, self-efficacy and perception of barriers to physical activity, and subjective well-being with the level of physical activity in university students. A cross-sectional predictive design was used and 362 students of Higher Education from a region of southern central Chile participated. To respond to the objectives, a Model of Structural Equations was used, specifically the Probit model suitable for ordinal regressions. The results showed that: (1) self-efficacy for the practice of physical activity, lack of time, lack of will, lack of ability, self-concept of physical condition and physical self-concept of strength significantly predicted the level of practice of physical activity; (2) the level of physical activity mediates the relationship between sociocognitive variables and positive affectivity. It is possible to conclude that sociocognitive variables influence the levels of physical activity of university students and the latter influences their well-being.
