espanolSe investigo la relacion de la soledad con tipos de personalidad. Participaron 1319 adolescentes espanoles (53% mujeres). Se aplicaron escalas de autoinforme para medir soledad, adaptacion escolar y personalidad. Con los datos obtenidos del Cuestionario de Personalidad de Eysenck para Adolescentes (EPQ-J), desde el enfoque centrado en las personas, mediante analisis de conglomerados se obtuvieron tres tipos (grupos) de adolescentes (resilientes, supra-controlados e infra-controlados). ANOVAs mostraron diferencias significativas entre los grupos, siendo los supra-controlados los mas altos en soledad. Los resilientes tenian el mejor perfil de adaptacion escolar y el mas alto rendimiento academico. El grupo supra-controlado es particularmente vulnerable a la soledad y sus consecuencias, por lo que debe ser considerado una prioridad para la intervencion temprana. EnglishThis study examined the relationship of loneliness with personality types. Participants were 1319 Spanish adolescents (53% women). Several scales to evaluate loneliness, school adaptation, and personality were applied. From a person-centered approach, with the Eysenck´ Junior Personality Questionnaire (EPQ-J), three types were identified (resilient, overcontrolled and undercontrolled) using cluster analysis. ANOVAs showed significant differences between the groups, being the overcontrolled group highest in loneliness. Resilient individuals had the best profile of school adaptation and higher academic performance. Because the overcontrolled group is particularly vulnerable to the perceived loneliness, these adolescents might be considered a priority for early professional intervention. |
