    (Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Cárdenas Moscoso, Alexis; Jiménez Herrera, Rómulo; 1400945422
    Introduction. Depression is an invisible enemy that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by persistent sadness, a loss of interest in once enjoyable activities, and changes in appetite and sleep, resulting in a deterioration in the individual’s quality of life. To confront this psychopathology, two main approaches are used: antidepressant medications and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). This bibliographic research aims to identify which of these two interventions is more effective in treating this mental illness. Objective. To systematically describe the main research findings related to comparative clinical trials between TMS and psychopharmacology in patients with refractory depression. Methodology. With a descriptive scope, this bibliographic research involves selecting and reviewing various articles, books, and documents related to non-invasive neuromodulation (TMS), psychopharmacology, and its therapeutic applicability in depression through randomized clinical trials published over the last decade. Conclusion. The conclusion that can be drawn is that TMS is a more effective alternative to pharmacological treatment in patients with depression, as the analysis of several studies has shown a greater favorable response in the cerebral cortex, thereby improving the mood of participants and reducing depressive symptoms.

    Parental conflict influences parenting practices (positive and coercive), affecting how parents set limits, provide support, and manage behaviors. It is proposed that the greater the parental conflict, the greater the parenting dysfunction, highlighting the importance of improving communication and resolution. The study aims to determine the relationship between perceived parental conflict and parenting practices among parents of children aged 2 to 12 in Cuenca-Ecuador. To this end, the PAFAS and ACPAR scales were used to collect data from a sample of 325 participants, who provided information and signed the corresponding informed consent. The analysis, which includes descriptive statistics and correlation tests, reveals that 20.9% of parents perceive themselves as having a high attitude towards conflict resolution, while 25.5% show a low attitude. Regarding the perception of the other parent, 20.9% perceive them with a high disposition to resolve conflicts, while 28.9% perceive them as having a low disposition. Concerning parenting practices, 20.6% report a high use of coercive practices, and 23.1% report a high use of positive stimulation. The correlation between parenting practices and perceived parental conflict is low (0.019) and statistically non-significant (p = 0.735), suggesting that no relevant relationship exists between these variables in the sample analyzed. The conclusions suggest that, despite perceived parental conflicts, parenting practices are not significantly affected.

Methodology: This is a cross-sectional, non-experimental, quantitative study that is descriptive and correlational, with 208 participants: 126 married parents and 82 divorced parents with children aged 2 to 12 years. The Co-parenting Relationship Scale (CRS), comprising 35 items, was used to evaluate shared parenting and co-parental relationships. Descriptive statistics and frequency analysis were employed for the first two objectives. For the third objective, the Kolmogorov- Smirnov test and Pearson or Spearman correlation were used, employing SPSS version 25. Results: The study found no differences in the factors of shared parenting and division of labor; however, there were differences in support for shared parenting between the two groups. Conclusion: The study shows that co-parenting is easier when both parents live together, but children’s well-being is not affected if separated parents receive proper guidance; moreover, conflicts arise from lack of communication and difficulty in dividing co-parenting roles.

    Menstruation is a normative physiological process in women, but it can lead to Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) with severe emotional, behavioral, and physical symptoms during the luteal phase. This disorder significantly affects work performance, interpersonal relationships, and quality of life, with an associated risk of suicide, affecting 3-8 % of childbearing-age women. The lack of adequate psychological evaluations and treatments has hindered the experience and recovery from the disease. This study aimed to determine the psychological assessment procedures for premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The research used a descriptive narrative review design, following the PRISMA guidelines. Keywords such as “premenstrual dysphoric disorder, assessment, diagnosis, test, psychometric properties” were used in searches on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science with Boolean operators OR, AND, and XOR. Articles published in English were selected, including descriptive studies, meta-analyses, and other designs related to psychology and psychiatry. As a result, instruments such as SSS-8, PSST, PSQ, PMDD, ENR, and DASS-21 have been highlighted, which demonstrated diagnostic validity and excellent internal consistency (0.80-0.95), confirming their construct, diagnostic, predictive, and content validity. The psychosocial impact of PMDD shows that a poor diagnosis reduces quality of life, while an accurate diagnosis improves well-being and relationships, facilitating effective therapeutic interventions.
