Anger Rumination and Mindfulness: Mediating Effects on Forgiveness Fuente Anuncibay, Raquel de la; González Barbadillo, Ángela; Ortega Sánchez, Delfín; Ordóñez Camblor, Nuria; Pizarro Ruiz, Juan Pablo (1) Background: Different investigations relate mindfulness practice as a strategy to cope with and improve negative repetitive thinking states and forgiveness. (2) Methods: The aim is to analyze the mediating processes of mindfulness as a trait and the changes in the anger rumination on forgiveness. This sample comprised 264 undergraduate students (M = 24.13 years, SD = 11.39). The instruments used were the Anger Rumination Scale (ARS), the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ) and the Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS). For data analysis, the spillover effect was calculated using 10,000 bootstrap samples for the bootstrap confidence intervals (CI). (3) Conclusions: The results confirm that the relationship between mindfulness practice and forgiveness is mediated by changes in mindfulness trait and anger rumination. Given the results obtained, it is considered appropriate to extend the study to samples from other countries, as well as to contexts of depressive rumination or anxiety.

Desarrollo de funciones ejecutivas y creatividad en educación infantil Garcia Pascual, Maria Rocio; Cuesta Gómez, José Luis; Fuente Anuncibay, Raquel de la; Uribe Gil, Lina María Resumen Introducción: el desarrollo de las funciones ejecutivas en la autorregulación de la conducta y desarrollo de procesos cognitivos de orden superior pone en evidencia su importancia en el éxito escolar y social. Algunos estudios sugieren que puede existir relación con la creatividad, siendo de gran relevancia determinar los procesos de desarrollo de ambos conceptos y ver su relación. Objetivo: estudiar la relación entre funciones ejecutivas y creatividad en una muestra de alumnos de edades comprendidas entre los 3 y los 5 años y 11 meses. Materiales y método: para medir la función ejecutiva se utilizó el BRIEF-P (Gioia et al., 2016) y para la medir la creatividad el cuestionario de creatividad de Tuttle (1980). La correlación se midió mediante estadística paramétrica. Resultados: los resultados mostraron que existe relación estadísticamente significativa entre la creatividad y el Índice General de Función Ejecutiva (IGE), existe correlación significativa con el Índice de Metacognición Emergente (IME) sin embargo, no se encontró relación entre los índices de Autocontrol Inhibitorio (IAI) y de Flexibilidad (IFL). Los alumnos de menor edad presentan mayores dificultades en las escalas de inhibición, flexibilidad y control emocional. Conclusiones: la existencia de relación entre la función ejecutiva y la creatividad abre la puerta a más investigaciones en este campo, siendo necesario ampliar la muestra. Se señala la importancia de diseñar e implementar programas educativos en la etapa de Educación Infantil para potenciarlas.; Introduction: The development of executive functions in the self-regulation of behavior and the development of higher-order cognitive processes highlight their importance in academic success. Some studies suggest that there may be a relationship with creativity, making it highly relevant to determine the developmental processes of both concepts and to explore their relationship. Objective: To study the relationship between executive functions and creativity in a sample of students aged between 3 years and 5 years and 11 months. Materials and Method: The BRIEF-P (Gioia et al., 2016) was used to measure executive function, and Tuttle’s creativity questionnaire (1980) was used to measure creativity. The correlation was measured using parametric statistics. Results: The results showed a statistically significant relationship between creativity and the Global Executive Function Index (GEFI), with a significant correlation with the Emerging Metacognition Index (EMI). However, no relationship was found between the Inhibitory Self-Control Index (ISCI) and the Flexibility Index (FI). Younger students showed more difficulties in the scales of inhibition, flexibility, and emotional control. Conclusions: The existence of a relationship between executive function and creativity opens the door to further research in this field, with an expansion of the sample size being necessary. It highlights the importance of designing and implementing educational programs in Early Childhood Education to enhance these skills.

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.

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.
