“…By contrast, less is known about young people's life satisfaction (Antaramian et al 2008;Gilman and Huebner 2003). Their life satisfaction is particularly worthy of attention because during their transition to adulthood young people face many developmental and adjustment challenges, including in the self, in the family, and at school (Hampel and Petermann 2006;Lerner and Galambos 1998) -most of which can influence their life satisfaction. In this study, we analyze whether, and to what extent, young people's life satisfaction is sensitive to perceived stress in education and general self-efficacy, because education constitutes one of the main sources of stress among young people (Persike and Seiffge-Krenke 2012), whereas self-efficacy has been considered a major resource facilitating adolescents' coping.…”

Life satisfaction is an important indicator of successful development. However, adolescents' life satisfaction tends to be relatively unsteady, and environmental influences play a critical role in shaping life satisfaction among adolescents in the transition to young adulthood. Given the paramount importance that education plays in adolescents' lives, adolescents' life satisfaction may vary as a function of school-related stress experience. At the same time, coping resources may help reduce adverse effects of stress on life satisfaction. With this in mind, we examined whether, and to what extent, perceived stress in education and general self-efficacy (a resource that facilitates coping) affect the life satisfaction of adolescents in transition to young adulthood. We distinguished between baseline levels of stress and self-efficacy and within-person change in stress and self-efficacy to determine whether life satisfaction is sensitive to fluctuations in stress and self-efficacy when person-specific levels of stress and self-efficacy are taken into account. Estimating growth curve models on data from a panel study on the life trajectories of compulsory-school leavers (n = 5,126, 55.3% female), we found that baseline levels of stress and self-efficacy, as well as within-person change in stress and self-efficacy, affected adolescents' life satisfaction.Moreover, our results showed that baseline self-efficacy mitigated the negative effect of baseline stress on life satisfaction. These findings improve our understanding of two major psychological determinants of adolescents' life satisfaction and extend our knowledge of life satisfaction trajectories during the transition to young adulthood.

“…Since the capacity of working memory is limited, updating of selective information is highly important in emotional regulation and psychological well-being (42). Also, the results of studies (43) showed that perceived stress threshold in women is lower than that in men, i.e. the level of cortisol in women increases more in comparison with that in men and as a result, their limbic system becomes more active (30) and the cortisol response to stress is different between women and men (44)(45)(46).…”

“…En la misma dirección podría pensarse que afrontamiento de corte optimista como el optimismo disposicional propuesto por Seligman (2003), Taylor & Stanton (2007), Jaser et al (2007, que ha sido considerado como factor protector y potenciador de la salud mental y física, puede ser considerado entre los factores que protegen a las personas de desarrollar un TCA, ya que resulta ser una estrategia del todo opuesta a la evitativa típicamente asociada a estos trastornos. Entre los estudios que corroboran el papel positivo del optimismo sobre la salud se encuentran el realizado por Tusaie y Patterson, 2006, en el cual se encontró que el optimismo disposicional es un factor que contribuye a la resiliencia por ser cognitivamente influyente en los adolescentes para moderar el efecto de los estresores de la vida (Velasco, Botero & Londoño, 2011).…”

Resumen: El presente estudio descriptivo correlacional pretendió determinar la relación entre estilo de afrontamiento, historia psiquiátrica familiar, salud percibida, IMC, género, percepción de la figura y depresión y el riesgo de padecer un trastorno de conducta alimentaria. Participaron 417 estudiantes universitarios que se seleccionaron de manera no aleatorizada estratificada con grupos de conveniencia. Para obtener los datos se utilizó la Ficha de Registro de Información General, la Escala Abreviada de las actitudes alimentarias EAT -26-M, el Cuestionario de Formas de Afrontamiento, el Inventario de Depresión de Beck, la Prueba de Optimismo Disposicional y el Registro de Percepción de la Figura. El análisis de datos se llevo a cabo mediante el uso de ecuaciones estructurales. Se concluyó que la interacción de las variables antecedentes psicológicos familiares, género, deseo de disminución del peso, satisfacción con la imagen corporal, estilo de afrontamiento evitativo y depresión en conjunto predicen el riesgo de padecer un TCA, se discuten los hallazgos y se evidencian las limitaciones del presente estudio.
