Publicación Desafiando estereotipos sobre la maternidad : "un estudio cualitativo sobre la depresión posparto en mujeres de Medellín"(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-21) López López, María José; Córdoba Sánchez, VerónicaPublicación El rol del autoconocimiento en la toma de decisiones sexuales de los adolescentes(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-23) Vidal Moreno, Juanita; Suárez Echeverri, Daniela; Córdoba Sánchez, VerónicaAdolescence is a complex stage both for those going through it and for those supporting them; it is filled with physical, social, and psychological changes that are difficult to understand and manage, as this is when identity is formed and the exploration of sexuality begins. During this period, sexuality represents a fundamental dimension of development, as it influences both the young person’s overall well-being and the decisions they make regarding their body, their relationships, and their intimacy. The overall objective of this research was to understand the relationship between the perception of self-knowledge and sexual decision-making among adolescents in the Aburrá Valley between the ages 14 and 17, in order to identify psychological factors that promote or hinder the development of a conscious sexuality. A qualitative study with a phenomenological design was conducted, involving 18 adolescents between the ages of 14 and 17 years of age, residing in the Aburrá Valley. The data was collected through semi-structured interviews aimed at exploring perceptions of self-knowledge, psychological and social challenges, and the relationship between selfknowledge and sexual decision-making. The results show that the participants have an initial sense of self-awareness. Also, a relationship was identified between self-awareness and sexual decision-making, as adolescents who are clearer about their values, emotions, and boundaries tend to make more consistent decisions.Publicación Motivación académica y el uso de la inteligencia artificial generativa : una revisión sistemática de la literatura(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-25) Morales Madrid, Santiago Alexander; Manrique Tisnes, HoracioGenerative artificial intelligence (AI), through tools like ChatGPT and DALL·E, has transformed the educational field, but by facilitating academic tasks, it raises questions about its impact on motivation (Gallent Torres et al., 2023). The main concern, grounded in frameworks such as Self-Determination Theory, is that using AI as a "shortcut" may reduce personal effort, thereby affecting students' perception of competence and autonomy—crucial factors for a genuine interest in learning. From this, a central question arises: does the use of AI reflect a pre-existing lack of motivation, or, on the contrary, is it altering the dynamics of engagement with learning? This project seeks to synthesize existing scientific evidence on these dynamics to provide new insights into the understanding of this relationship, within a context where specialized literature is growing exponentially and educational institutions face the challenge of balancing technology and effective learning (Sabzalieva & Valentini, 2023; Chassignol et al., 2018).Publicación Yoga integrativo como herramienta de intervención para la ansiedad(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-25) Escorce Moreno, Mariana; Buitrago Duque, Diana CristinaPublicación Asociación entre el estrés académico y la ideación suicida en estudiantes de los primeros semestres de la Universidad EAFIT(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-27) Porter, Janis Ann; Hincapié Pérez, María Teresa; Cárdenas Niño, LucilaThe transition into the first semesters of university concentrates academic demands and adaptive challenges that may compromise students’ emotional balance. This research examined the association between academic stress and suicidal ideation in 294 students enrolled in the first three semesters at Universidad EAFIT (Medellín, Colombia), with valid protocols analyzed for 294 cases for academic stress and 280 for suicidal ideation. A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional and correlational design was employed, with a non-probabilistic convenience sample. The SISCO Academic Stress Inventory (Barraza, 2007) and the Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (BSSI; Beck et al., 1979) were administered, both showing strong psychometric properties in Latin American populations. Data were processed in RStudio through descriptive statistics, Pearson chi square test and Spearman correlation coefficient. Results showed that 87.1% of participants reported academic stress and 41.8% presented some level of suicidal ideation. A significant association was found between the two variables (χ² = 8.17; p < 0.01), although with a low effect size (Cramer’s V = 0.17). Psychological (ρ = 0.418), behavioral (ρ = 0.380) and physical (ρ = 0.352) reactions were associated with suicidal ideation, whereas coping strategies did not show a significant relationship. These findings partially support the research hypothesis and make it clear that psychological accompaniment from the first semester should not be optional.Publicación ¿Cuál es la asociación entre los estilos de apego, la dependencia emocional y la intolerancia a la soledad en estudiantes de la universidad Eafit matriculados durante el periodo académico 2026-1?(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-28) Díaz Peña, Jerelyn Karenssa; Vargas Navarro, Luisa María; Díez Cardona, Paula AndreaThe present study aimed to analyze the association between attachment styles, emotional dependency, and intolerance to loneliness in students enrolled at Universidad EAFIT during the academic period 2026-1. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design. The sample consisted of 32 university students selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling. Data were collected using the CaMir questionnaire, the Emotional Dependency Questionnaire (CDE), and the SELSA scale. The results showed statistically significant associations among the studied variables, revealing that participants with anxious attachment presented higher levels of emotional dependency and intolerance to loneliness. Likewise, although secure attachment predominated within the sample, a significant presence of insecure attachment styles and moderate to high levels of intolerance to loneliness were also identified. It is concluded that attachment styles influence the way students establish emotional relationships and emotionally cope with loneliness, highlighting the importance of strengthening emotional well-being and psychological support strategies within the university context.Publicación Heridas invisibles. Un estudio fenomenológico sobre la percepción de la vivencia relativa al intento de suicidio desde una perspectiva física, psicológica y social en dos jóvenes del Oriente Antioqueño(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-28) Suárez Zárate, David; Carmona Otálvaro, Juan GabrielThis undergraduate research aimed to understand, from a personal experience point of view, how a young person feels in their body, their emotions, and their relationships after trying to take their own life. For that purpose, two women from La Unión, a town in Eastern Antioquia, Colombia, were interviewed. The results of this research have several practical implications that are worth mentioning. For clinical psychology, they serve as a reminder that symptoms like insomnia or physical pains with no medical explanation should not be seen only as medical or psychiatric issues. Instead, they should be understood as expressions with a psychosocial and biographical meaning: the body speaking about what it still cannot put into words. For postvention health programs (those that support people after a suicide attempt), these findings suggest the need to design interventions that do not just focus on stabilizing the risk.Publicación Obstáculos para el ejercicio del rol de moral manager : percepciones de líderes de mando medio en organizaciones en el contexto colombiano(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-26) Martínez-Rincón, David Andrés; Vásquez Ochoa, Andrés MiguelEthical leadership in middle management faces obstacles that prevent the transition from individual integrity to the moral manager role. Through ten semi-structured interviews with Colombian leaders, barriers were identified at three levels: intrapersonal (delayed moral recognition and rationalization), interpersonal (relational silence and upward loyalty), and organizational (misalignment between stated values and lived practice). Findings reveal a blocked enricher: genuine ethical disposition, without conditions to act on it.Publicación Diseño del área de gestión humana para una pequeña empresa de Barranquilla(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-05-13) Hoyos Aristizábal, Sara; Villamizar Reyes, Milena MargaritaThis research aimed to design a sustainable and viable human resource management area proposal, tailored to the real conditions of a small company in Barranquilla, Colombia, dedicated to the manufacture and commercialization of hair care products. The study adopted a qualitative approach with a descriptive scope, and information was collected through semi-structured interviews applied to both administrative staff and employees of the organization. The analysis was organized around four categories: personnel selection, induction, training, and workplace wellbeing. The results showed that the company has human resource management practices that are positively perceived by its workers, but operate informally and without documented standardization to ensure consistency. A relevant gap was identified between the perception of the administrative team, which describes more structured processes, and the experience reported by employees, who in several cases described incomplete induction processes, predominantly informal recruitment channels, and the absence of a formal workplace wellbeing program. The training process received the highest ratings from both sources, although unaddressed training gaps were also identified. Based on this diagnosis and the theoretical review conducted, three formal protocols were designed: one for selection and recruitment, one for induction and training, and one for workplace wellbeing, which together constitute the initial structure of the human resource management area proposed for the organization. Each protocol was designed considering the available resources of a small enterprise, with the purpose of being functional, sustainable, and adapted to the particular context of the organization studied.Publicación La influencia del sett y el setting en los cambios funcionales percibidos por individuos que han experimentado con psilocibina en contextos controlados y no controlados en jóvenes mayores de 20 años(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-01-27) Vial Zuluaga, Daniel; Montoya López, Mateo; Echeverri Álvarez, JonathanThis study addresses psilocybin and its negative social perception, which has developed due to years of misinformation in the media, such as headlines like “The Dangerous Rise of the Hallucinogenic Mushroom” (El Tiempo, January 19, 2024). Although psilocybin shows benefits in the treatment of psychopathology, such as anxiety and depression, its social representation hinders its consideration in the therapeutic field. The objective of this research is to explore the experiences of individuals who have consumed psilocybin in controlled and uncontrolled environments, evaluating how the set and setting influence perceived functional changes, such as emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility, and changes in habits. The methodology employs a phenomenological approach with semi-structured interviews to collect detailed accounts from the participants. This research proposes that understanding these aspects can provide a more rigorous view of the therapeutic effects of psilocybin, promoting a broad debate on its regulation and potential as an alternative for patients with poor adherence to psychotropic medications or for anyone seeking an alternative.Publicación Influencia de los estímulos interoceptivos y exteroceptivos en la decisión de compra en consumidores jóvenes universitarios del Valle de Aburrá(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-02-10) Gómez García, Manuela; Córdoba Sánchez, VerónicaPublicación Impacto psicológico de mujeres sobrevivientes de violencia sexual en el marco del conflicto armado en Antioquia(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-13) Pareja Martínez, Diana Margarita; Sierra Diaz Granados, Sara Sofía; Restrepo Ruiz, NataliaPublicación Identificación de la satisfacción laboral de los empleados administrativos del mismo nivel jerárquico en una universidad privada de la ciudad de Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2026-02-03) Palacio Maturana, Ingrid Paola; Villamizar Reyes, Milena MargaritaPublicación Ser padre hoy : conociendo las actitudes sobre la paternidad en hombres con hijos(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-13) Zuluaga-Ochoa, Vanessa; Villamizar Reyes, Milena MargaritaPublicación Percepción del riesgo financiero, sesgos cognitivos e incertidumbre política en la adopción de la banca digital un estudio en adultos de Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-14) Cruz Prado, Arturo; Montoya Vanegas, Miguel Ángel; Echeverri Álvarez, JonathanStudy conducted with banked older adults in Medellín (50–75 years old) that analyzed how the perception of financial risk and cognitive biases are articulated with political uncertainty in the adoption of digital banking as opposed to traditional banking. A conservative–adaptive pattern was evidenced, operationalized as a high and sustained intention to use digital banking for routine operations, with low-to-moderate and situational perceived risk that activates security thresholds and pathways in response to signals of ambiguity. The biases (status quo, loss aversion, availability) do not block adoption but modulate its pace, favoring a phased incorporation. Political–economic uncertainty moderates expansion, especially in higher-value transactions, without reversing everyday use. The study integrates these dimensions into a coherent framework that delineates the conditions under which digitalization progresses in this age group and suggests directions for future methodological deepeningPublicación Comparacion de niveles de ansiedad social en estudiantes de pregrado de la universidad EAFIT con y sin consumo de cannabis(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-14) Sosa Labarces, Juan Sebastián; Guiral Quinchia, Julián AndrésPublicación Frustración y estrategias de afrontamiento en jinetes de equitación de trabajo : impacto percibido en el rendimiento deportivo(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-14) Chaux Martínez, Gabriella; Torres Cadavid, SusanaThis study examines how Working Equitation riders in Medellín experience frustration, which coping strategies they use, and how these shape performance. A qualitative design with five riders (20–35 years) used semi-structured interviews (in-person/online, ~20 min), audio recordings, field notes, and informed consent. Thematic analysis drew on frustration theory and coping typologies as analytic lenses. Findings indicate primary frustration (effort not reflected in outcomes) and secondary frustration (execution obstacles), with external, internal, and shared attributions (rider–horse teamwork). The three-day format heightens pressure and requires immediate emotion regulation; technical errors mainly affect short-term execution; contextual factors (horse condition, environment) can intensify frustration. Active coping predominated (error identification, training adjustments, enjoyment-focused reframing). Performance outcomes included greater motivation and learning supporting future success, momentary drops without lasting effects, and withdrawal urges tempered by passion and the bond with the horse. The need for psychological support is underscored. Limitations: small sample, limited timeframe, and scarce specific literature. Conclusion: active frustration management helps sustain dyadic performance.Publicación Influencia de la música electrónica en la construcción de la identidad, desde las experiencias y narraciones de personas con gusto declarado por este género en Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-13) Madrid Gómez, Juan Pablo; Duque Buitrago, Diana CristinaThis research analyzes how electronic music and its cultural and social dynamics influence the construction of identity among people with a declared taste for this genre in Medellín. Using a qualitative approach and an interpretative paradigm, semi-structured interviews were conducted with five participants selected through purposive sampling, following the principle of categorical saturation. Thematic analysis revealed four main categories: entry and experience within the scene, uniqueness and idiosyncrasy, autobiographical continuity and self-awareness, and personal values and ideals. Findings indicate that electronic music functions as a symbolic space where identity, emotionality, and values intertwine. Participants describe their entry into the scene as socially mediated, while their experiences in events become expressions of freedom, wellbeing, and self-knowledge. Furthermore, electronic music spaces foster the expression of individuality, the construction of a coherent life narrative, and the reaffirmation of ideals such as happiness, empathy, spirituality, and authenticity. It is concluded that electronic music, beyond its aesthetic function, serves as a vehicle for both subjective and social transformation, enabling individuals to build and sustain fluid yet coherent identities within Medellín’s contemporary urban context.Publicación Barreras en la adopción de hábitos saludables en deportistas de un club de fútbol en el municipio de Copacabana(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-11) Arriaga Madera, Romario; Torres Cadavid, SusanaThe acquisition of healthy habits is one of the current topics that generates the greatest interest in sports and health sciences, such as psychology, especially when it involves a population that is vulnerable due to environmental factors and life changes during adolescence. This qualitative study aims to identify the barriers that interfere with the adoption of healthy habits in athletes who are part of a football club in the municipality of Copacabana. To this end, a questionnaire was used, created based on the FANTASTICO and PEPS I questionnaires, as well as the recommendations provided by the WHO. The objective is to assess the prevalence of habits and, together with interviews based on the COM-B model, to identify potential barriers to the adoption of healthy habits. The results showed a high prevalence of healthy habits and barriers mainly associated with psychological capability (knowledge). Finally, the study encourages the continuation of such research to help design and implement interventions based on education and persuasion.Publicación Manifestaciones de empatía en comentarios digitales a noticias de violencia sexista en Colombia publicadas en los últimos 10 años(Universidad EAFIT, 2025-11-14) Valencia Gómez, Sofía; Zuluaga Aristizábal, Marda UcarisThis qualitative and comparative study analyzed manifestations of empathy and their relationship with social representations and ambivalent sexism in digital comments on news about gender-based violence published in Colombia, between 2015 and 2025. A corpus of Facebook comments related to femicide and gender-violence news was examined using thematic and discourse analysis. Findings reveal a progressive decline in affective empathy, alongside an increase in sexist and counter-empathic discourses. These results indicate a shift in the social representations of gender- based violence, marked by normalization of hostile and benevolent sexism in digital environments. The study concludes that analyzing forms of empathy expressed online helps identify cultural transformations related to gender, violence and social sensitivity in the Colombian context.
