“…This finding agrees with previous research showing that the depressed mood of the diagnosed wife affects the spouse's mood. [34][35][36] The present study also revealed that self-esteem is another important factor that correlates with the degree of anxiety or depression in both partners.…”

Introduction: Psychiatric morbidities, especially cases of anxiety and depression, are prevalent among breast cancer patients and their partners. Patients and methods: Fifty-four early diagnosed breast cancer patients and their partners were compared with 50 healthy couples to assess psychiatric morbidity and the impact of various factors upon patients' surgical choice. Results: It was found that 18.5%, 22.2%, and 3.7% of husbands had generalized anxiety d isorder, major depressive disorder, and panic disorder, respectively. It was also found that 38.8%, 29.6%, and 9.2% of the patients had major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and panic disorder, respectively. Depression and anxiety scores were high in both partners in love-based, well-adjusted marriages, within the middle socioeconomic class, and among educated couples. Among the well-known factors related to surgical treatment choice (age, parity, tumor size, pathology, grade, lymph node status), only age and psychological morbidity (in the patients and their partners) had a significant impact on treatment choice. Conclusion: Patients of middle socioeconomic class, the well educated, and those in love-based marriages had a higher likelihood of suffering different types of psychological morbidities and were more likely to choose breast conservation or reconstruction than mastectomy.

“…Many of these interpersonal stressors reflect behaviors by intimate partners that have implications for the relationship. For example, Beach et al (2003) have found that marital discord is longitudinally predictive of husband and wife depression. Cano and O'Leary (2000) reported that women who acknowledged humiliating marital events, specifically, husbands' infidelity and threats of separation, were more likely to be diagnosed with a current major depression than women who, despite similar levels of marital discord, had not suffered a humiliating marital event.…”

Background: Individuals married to heavy drinking spouses often have poorer health compared to those whose spouses are not heavy drinkers. This work examined how one spouse's alcohol involvement and alcohol-related problems affect his/her spouse's depressive symptomatology over time.Methods: Couples (N = 634) were assessed for past year alcohol involvement and alcohol-related problems (marital and non-marital) and depressive symptomatology when they applied for a marriage license. They were reassessed at their first and second anniversaries. Multilevel models were used to analyze the association between one spouse's alcohol involvement and alcohol problems and his/ her partner's depressive symptomatology over time.Results: Both husbands' and wives' marital alcohol problems were associated with wives' depressive symptoms. Neither spouses' alcohol consumption was associated with wives' depressive symptoms. Husbands' marriage-related alcohol problems and frequency of heavy drinking were related to husbands' depressive symptoms; however, wives' alcohol problems and alcohol use were unrelated to husbands' depression. Conclusions:In a community sample of married couples, we found that husbands' and wives' marital alcohol problems affect wives' depressive symptoms, but only husbands' marital alcohol problems affect husbands' depressive symptoms. Future work should consider other subgroups of alcohol-related problems in one spouse and their relation to depression in his/her partner.

“…esta variable tiene relevancia en el ámbito de la salud, debido a la asociación que tiene con factores psicológicos tales como el apoyo social percibido, depresión y estrés psicológico (Beach, Katz, Kim y Brody, 2003;Bertera, 2005;ibarra-rovillard y Kuiper, 2011). sin embargo, y a diferencia de otros contructos psicológicos tales como el optimismo disposicional (ortiz, gómez-pérez, cancino y Barrera-Herrera, 2016), depresión y ansiedad (antúnez y Vinet, 2012) y estrés (ortiz, Baeza-rivera y Myers, 2013), que cuentan con escalas validadas en población chilena, las propiedades psicométricas de la escala de Ns de Newsom et al (2005) aún no han sido estudiadas en chile.…”

Daniela gómez-pérez programa de Doctorado en psicología, Universidad de la Frontera, chile.Margarita cancino programa de Doctorado en psicología, Universidad de la Frontera, chile.ana Barrera-Herrera programa de Doctorado en psicología, Universidad de la Frontera, chile. Resumen el objetivo de este estudio fue estimar las propiedades psicométricas de la escala de Negatividad social de Newsom, la cual mide el efecto negativo de las interacciones sociales en el bienestar individual. para ello, se seleccionó a 526 universitarios, realizando análisis factorial exploratorio con 50% de la muestra y análisis factorial confirmatorio con el restante 50%. A diferencia de la estructura de cuatro factores sugerida por los autores, los resultados de este estudio indican que la escala tiene una estructura factorial de dos factores, agrupando el primer factor 4 ítems y el segundo 8. las cargas factoriales fueron superiores a 0,3 y se obtuvieron buenos indicadores de bondad de ajuste. la consistencia interna de la escala, medida con alfa de cronbach fue 0,86. la evidencia sugiere que la escala de Negatividad social de Newsom es un instrumento válido y confiable que puede ser utilizado en población Chilena. Palabras clave: Negatividad Social, Análisis Factorial Exploratorio, Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio, Confiabilidad.Abstract the purpose of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the social Negativity exchange Scale developed by Newsom et al, which is defined as the negative effect that social interactions have on individual wellbeing. Thus, a sample of five hundred and twenty two (n= 526) college-age students was nonrandomly selected. An exploratory factor analysis was conducted with 50% of them, and then a confirmatory factor analysis with the others. A two-factor solution was identified, with the first factor grouping four items and the second factor eight items. Fit indexes were good, with factorial loadings greater than .3. the total scale reliability was .86. the evidence obtained in this study suggests that the Newsom´s social Negativity exchange scale is a valid and reliable scale to be used with chilean population.
