LA ESQUIZOFRENIA ES ?UN TRASTORNO QUE SE CARACTERIZA POR LA APARICIÓN DE ?SÍNTOMAS POSITIVOS? DE ALUCINACIONES AUDITIVAS, DISTORSIONES Y TRASTORNOS DEL PENSAMIENTO Y ?SÍNTOMAS NEGATIVOS? DE DESMOTIVACIÓN, NEGACIÓN DE SÍ MISMO Y REDUCCIÓN DE LA EMOCIÓN? (MINISTERIO DE SALUD, 2005: 7). DENTRO DE SUS CARACTERÍSTICAS SE ENCUENTRA EL PRODUCIR DETERIORO DEL FUNCIONAMIENTO GLOBAL DE LA PERSONA YA QUE IMPLICA DIFICULTADES PARA MANTENER LAS RELACIONES INTERPERSONALES Y AFECTA LA CALIDAD DE VIDA. SE TRATA DE UNA ENFERMEDAD QUE GENERA COSTOS ECONÓMICOS, SOCIALES, ESTIGMATIZACIÓN Y UN AUMENTO DEL ESTRÉS FAMILIAR.

GIRLS AND BOYS DIAGNOSED WITH ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD) NEED TO REDUCE THEIR SYMPTOMS THROUGH INTERVENTIONS. A CROSSOVER QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT AIMED AT BOTH MOTHERS AND FATHERS AND THEIR GIRLS AND BOYS DIAGNOSED WITH ADHD. SPECIFICALLY, A FAMILY BONDING THERAPY (FBT)FOR MOTHERS AND FATHERS AND A CLINICAL PSYCHOMOTOR THERAPY (CPT)FOR GIRLS AND BOYS WITH ADHD. THE SAMPLE HAS BEEN MADE UP OF THREE GIRLS AND THIRTEEN BOYS BETWEEN 5 YEARS 11 MONTHS AND 9 YEARS OLD, IN ADDITION TO THEIR MOTHERS AND FATHERS. THE GIRLS AND BOYS HAVE BEEN EVALUATED AT THE BEGINNING, MIDDLE, AND THE END OF THE INTERVENTIONS. THEIR CAPACITY OF SELF-REGULATION HAS BEEN MEASURED THROUGH TWO QUESTIONNAIRES ADDRESSED TO MOTHERS AND FATHERS (BEHAVIORAL ASSESSMENT OF EXECUTIVE FUNCTION/BRIEF-2 AND BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT SYSTEM FOR CHILDREN/BASC). THE INDICATORS OF BOTH QUESTIONNAIRES QUANTIFIED THE CHANGE IN SELF-REGULATION AS THE RESPONSE VARIABLE. STATISTICAL METHODS ASSOCIATED WITH MIXED LINEAR MODELS HAVE MEASURE THE EFFECT AND THE ORDER OF TREATMENT AS EXPLANATORY VARIABLES. FURTHERMORE, DIFFERENT CONTROL VARIABLES WERE INCORPORATED,THE INITIAL LEVEL OF RESPONSE AND COVARIATES SUCH AS THE ANXIETY AND THE ADAPTABILITY. THIS STUDY HAS REPORTED THAT HYPERACTIVITY HAS PROVEN TO BE A CENTRAL SYMPTOM TO MEASURE SELF-REGULATION CAPACITY BECAUSE IT SHOWED A SIGNIFICANT ASSOCIATION WITH PBT WHEN APPLIED AFTER CPT, AS MEASURED BY THE BASC. IN CONCLUSION, THE EFFECT OF CLINICAL INTERVENTIONS BASED ON THEIR ORDER FAVORS THE REDUCTION OF HYPERACTIVITY AND INFLUENCES THE SELF-REGULATION CAPACITY OF GIRLS AND BOYS.

THE AIM OF THIS ARTICLE IS TO PRESENT EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE ON THE FACTORS THAT FACILITATE THE EMERGENCE OF MORAL SUFFERING AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE PHENOMENON IN SOCIAL WORKERS PUBLISHED BETWEEN 2018 AND 2022. A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW WAS CONDUCTED IN SCIELO, SCOPUS AND WEB OF SCIENCE, AND EIGHTEEN ARTICLES WERE SELECTED FOR ANALYSIS. MOST OF THE ARTICLES ARE QUALITATIVE RESEARCH REPORTS AND USE INTERVIEWS AS DATA COLLECTION INSTRUMENTS. THE STUDIES PRIMARILY INVOLVE SOCIAL WORKERS WORKING IN THE FIELDS OF HEALTHCARE AND CHILDHOOD, AIMING TO UNDERSTAND THE FACTORS INFLUENCING MORAL DISTRESS. MORAL DISTRESS IS CONCEPTUALISED AS ARISING FROM WORKING CONDITIONS AND ORGANISATIONAL FACTORS. THE MAIN CONSEQUENCES OF THE PHENOMENON ARE IN THE MENTAL HEALTH OF PROFESSIONALS AND AT THE ORGANISATIONAL LEVEL. MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES SUCH AS DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND BURNOUT ARE REPORTED, AS WELL AS ORGANISATIONAL DIFFICULTIES SUCH AS HIGH TURNOVER AND THE INTENTION TO QUIT THE JOB. DESPITE THE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES OF THE PHENOMENON, EVIDENCE ON THIS TOPIC IS SCARCE, PARTICULARLY IN LATIN AMERICA, WHERE NO STUDIES ON THE SUBJECT HAVE BEEN FOUND. THE PRECARIOUS WORKING CONDITIONS THAT SOCIAL WORKERS FACE IN THIS GEOGRAPHICAL AREA SHOW THE NEED FOR FURTHER RESEARCH.
