Introducción: Sufrir un daño neurológico, puede llegar a alterar la salud emocional, dado que provoca importantes alteraciones físicas y cognitivas que afectan a las distintas áreas de la vida de los pacientes. El objetivo principal de este estudio ha sido conocer el nivel de Inteligencia Emocional, Autoestima, Resiliencia y Calidad de vida en personas con Daño Cerebral Adquirido (DCA), en comparación con personas sin dicho daño. Método: Para ello, se llevó a cabo un estudio descriptivo, comparativo y de corte transversal, entre un grupo clínico (N=22) y un grupo control (N=22). Se utilizó un cuestionario sociodemográfico y de bienestar ad hoc y las escalas de Autoestima de Rosenberg (RSES), de Calidad de Vida (EuroQol-5D), de Resiliencia (CD-RISC) y de Inteligencia Emocional (TMMS-24). Resultados: Tras realizar los análisis estadísticos, hallamos diferencias significativas en la calidad de vida (p=.001) y en la claridad emocional (p=.03), manteniendo una relación significativa entre ellas en ambos grupos. En el resto de las variables, autoestima, resiliencia, atención y reparación, no hallamos diferencias. Conclusiones: Podemos concluir en relación al grupo clínico, de este estudio, que poseen menor calidad de vida y una menor claridad emocional respecto al grupo sin daño, pudiendo utilizar estos resultados para trabajar la inteligencia emocional dada su influencia en la calidad de vida.

Diving into Health: A Mixed Methods Study on the Impact of Scuba Diving in People with Physical Impairments

et al. 2023

The impacts of scuba diving on people with physical impairments are unknown. Grounded on the social identity approach to health, the aim of this study was to test and describe the relationships between scuba diving social identity, self-efficacy, social health, psychological health, physical health, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), and disability level among recreational scuba divers with physical impairments. A mixed methods explanatory sequential design was employed. The quantitative strand used an 80-item cross-sectional survey, with the data analyzed via a path analysis. The qualitative strand used 1:1 interviews across 3 case study groups; the data were analyzed using deductive and inductive analyses. Mixing occurred via a joint display with meta-inferences. The quantitative results (n = 78) indicated that self-efficacy was a significant predictor of social health, psychological health, physical health, HRQOL, and disability level. The qualitative findings (n = 15) consisted of six themes, whereby participants described scuba as a positive social identity that provides them with meaning, purpose, and belonging. Furthermore, they described scuba diving as a positive contributor to their self-efficacy, social health, psychological health, physical health, and quality of life. During the mixing of data, the quantitative and qualitative results did not match on the influence of scuba diving social identity on self-efficacy, social health, psychological health, physical health, HRQOL, and disability level. A further analysis revealed that the range restriction impaired the conclusive quantitative evidence on the scuba diving social identity variable. The meta-inferences derived from the data integration suggest that scuba diving plays a role in the self-efficacy, health, HRQOL, and disability level among scuba divers with physical impairments. The findings point to the potential of scuba diving as a health promotion recreational activity and rehabilitation modality for people with physical impairments.
