Identifying Population Groups Based on Humanity Attribution to Low‐, Middle‐ and High‐Socioeconomic Status Groups: A Multilevel Latent Profile Analysis Sainz, Mario; Martínez, Rocío; Muelas Lobato, Roberto Despite growing research on (de)humanisation in the socioeconomic domain, the extent and diversity of these tendencies withinthe population remain unclear. This study used a representative sample of Spaniards (N = 1478) to examine the existence andprevalence of distinct dehumaniser profiles at both the individual (Level 1) and societal (Level 2) levels. We conducted a multi-level latent profile analysis using humanity attribution scores for low-, middle- and high-SES groups. At the individual level, fiveprofiles emerged: high- (12%), middle- (27%) and low- (41%) generalised humanisers, high-SES dehumanisers (6%) and hierarchylegitimisers (13%). At the societal level, we identified three profiles: assimilators (52%), indifferents (7%) and unsettled (41%).Adherence to these profiles appeared to be influenced by participants' socioeconomic backgrounds or system justification andmeritocracy, with profiles differing in their demand for social change. We discuss the applied relevance of mapping dehumani-sation tendencies on the design of targeted interventions.

II Encuentro presencial de la red de programas de doctorado en Ciencias de la Salud Sáiz Vázquez, Olalla; Sarabia Montaño, Verónica; Gracia Leiva, Marcela; Ubillos Landa, Silvia El Libro de Ponencias del II Encuentro Presencial de la Red de Programas de Doctorado en Ciencias de la Salud, celebrado en la Universidad de Burgos los días 17 y 18 de octubre de 2024, reúne un conjunto diverso de investigaciones, reflexiones y experiencias vinculadas a la salud desde perspectivas clínicas, sociales, tecnológicas y académicas. La obra refleja el espíritu multidisciplinar que caracteriza a los programas de doctorado del área, así como el compromiso de la comunidad científica con la generación de conocimiento útil, aplicable y socialmente transformador. El volumen se abre con una conferencia inaugural dedicada a la preparación frente a futuras epidemias, donde se destaca la importancia de enfoques de investigación integrados, la colaboración interinstitucional y la visión “Una Salud”. A partir de ahí, las diferentes mesas temáticas recogen estudios que van desde el desarrollo de herramientas digitales para la prevención en población joven hasta investigaciones aplicadas sobre cuidados clínicos, salud pública, actividad física, nutrición y prevención de riesgos sanitarios. Asimismo, se presentan experiencias de doctorandos y egresados que han desarrollado estancias internacionales, proyectos de transferencia, tesis con metodologías diversas y trabajos que enlazan la investigación con el impacto social. El libro incluye estudios cuantitativos, cualitativos y mixtos, además de propuestas metodológicas para la realización de tesis doctorales y para el diseño de intervenciones en contextos clínicos y comunitarios. El conjunto de ponencias subraya la relevancia de la investigación en Ciencias de la Salud como motor de innovación, mejora asistencial y transformación social. La obra pone de manifiesto la necesidad de fomentar redes de colaboración, promover la educación científica y consolidar la transferencia de conocimiento para responder a los retos actuales y futuros del sistema sanitario. En suma, se trata de un compendio que celebra la diversidad, el rigor metodológico y el compromiso humano que fundamentan la investigación en salud. Recoge los contenidos presentados a: II Encuentro Presencial de la Red de Programas de Doctorado en Ciencias de la Salud, celebrado en la Universidad de Burgos los días 17 y 18 de octubre de 2024.

Effectiveness of the NeuronUp program in improving the cognitive performance in older adults Sáiz Vázquez, Olalla; Ubillos Landa, Silvia; Mercado Val, Elvira; Líbano Miralles, Mario del; Santamaría Vázquez, Montserrat Background: The application of new technologies for cognitive stimulation has increased in recent years, allowing interdisciplinary teams to work more efficiently, minimizing the costs and time of analysis, management, and design of activities, and improving the care of older adults. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a cognitive intervention carried out using a web platform (NeuronUp) in improving mild cognitive decline (orientation, reading, memory, and language) in institutionalized older adults as compared to traditional interventions using pencil and paper. Methods: The experimental design was applied on two randomly allocated participant groups. One group received the intervention through NeuronUp (55 participants), and the other group received it with pencil and paper (55 participants). For the user evaluation, the Abbreviated Barcelona Test (PIEN-TB), which was administered before and after the intervention, was used. Analyses of variance, covariance, multivariate analysis of variance, and covariance were performed on two groups (control and experimental) twice (pre- and post-intervention). Each cognitive measure was used as a dependent variable; the group was the fixed factor, and the pre-test scores and the educational levels were the covariates. Results: Statistically significant differences were observed in all categories except for language. The NeuronUp program improved three of the four cognitive skills evaluated: orientation (F(3106) = 12.747, p = .001, d = 0.69) and reading (F(3106) = 9.195, p = .003, d = 0.59) with moderate effect sizes, and memory (F(3106) = 58.911, p = .001, d = 1.49) with a strong effect size. Conclusion: The NeuronUp program is effective in improving cognitive processes in older individuals; furthermore, implementing treatments with new technologies guided by specialized professionals may be beneficial.

A cross-cultural sequential model of the association between young Spanish and Colombian women victims of power imbalance and suicide risk: The mediating role of dating violence and rumination Gracia Leiva, Marcela; Ubillos Landa, Silvia; Puente Martínez, Alicia; Arias Rodríguez, Gina; Nieto-Betancour, Lucy; Tobar-Lasso, María José; Páez Rovira, Darío . For young women, the power imbalance in favor of males in dating relationships has been related to dating violence (DV) victimization. In addition, the use of rumination to cope with DV may increase their psychological distress. The purpose of the current study was to examine whether experiences of DV and rumination mediate the association between power imbalance and suicide risk (SR). The sample comprised 1,216 young women aged between 18 and 28 years from Colombia (n = 461) and Spain (n = 755), in a heterosexual dating relationship, not married or cohabiting with a partner and without children. The following scales were applied: The Sexual Relationship Power Scale-Modified, The Dating Violence Questionnaire–-R (DVQ-R); Cyberdating Abuse Questionnaire, Measure of Affect Regulation Scale (MARS), and The Spanish Suicide Risk Scale. A sequential mediation paths model was tested. Results indicated that power imbalance was associated with DV victimization. Furthermore, DV was associated with more rumination, which was also linked to a greater SR in both countries. Rumination may be a mechanism through which experiences of DV victimization negatively influence mental health in young women and is an important variable related cross-culturally to SR. The findings suggest an equality approach, addressing the power imbalance in dating relationships, empowering girls to prevent DV, and teaching coping strategies for dealing with victimization and its consequences.
