Abstract
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo describir la relación entre ansiedad y las
estrategias de afrontamiento en un grupo de adultos con disfemia, así como explorar sus
posibles diferencias entre las variables sociodemográficas obtenidas. El número de
participantes es de 43 personas con diferentes niveles de disfemia, entre 18 y 34 años,
pertenecientes a una asociación particular de tartamudez en Lima Metropolitana. Las
pruebas que se utilizaron fueron el Inventario de Ansiedad: Rasgo – Estado (IDARE) y
el Inventario Multidimensional de Estimación de Afrontamiento (COPE-60) en la versión
adaptada de Cassaretto y Chau (2016). Los resultados evidenciaron que, la escala AR
mostró relación directa con la estrategia de afrontamiento enfocar y liberar emociones, y
relación inversa con las estrategias reinterpretación positiva y crecimiento, y aceptación;
mientras que, la escala AE se relacionó significativamente con la estrategia enfocar y
liberar emociones. Además, se encontraron correlaciones inversas entre la variable
sociodemográfica edad y la escala AR, así como con la estrategia de afrontamiento
enfocar y liberar emociones. Por otro lado, se reportaron diferencias significativas entre
la variable sociodemográfica sexo y la estrategia de afrontamiento negación, y la variable
tipo de terapia y la estrategia afrontamiento religioso. Del estudio se puede concluir que,
la ansiedad es un factor que subyace a la disfemia, en la medida que, trae consigo
emociones negativas como miedo, vergüenza, frustración o rabia, provocando en última
instancia un trastorno de ansiedad. Además, puede desencadenar formas de afronte
desadaptativas que podrían mellar el crecimiento personal. Finalmente, es importante
reconocer el valor de la terapia dirigida por un psicólogo y/o especialista en tartamudez,
puesto que puede brindarle al paciente las herramientas suficientes para hacer frente tanto
a la disfemia, como a las emociones y a los pensamientos implicados.
The purpose of this research is to describe the relationship between anxiety and coping, as well as to explore their possible differences according to sociodemographic variables obtained. The number of participants is 43 people with different levels of stuttering, between 18 and 34 years, belonging to a particular association of stuttering in Lima. The tests used were Anxiety Inventory: State - Trait (STAI) and the Multidimensional Inventory of Coping Estimation (COPE-60) in the adapted version of Cassaretto and Chau (2016). The results showed that the AR scale showed a direct relationship with the coping strategy, focus and release emotions, and an inverse relationship with the strategies, positive reinterpretation and growth, and acceptance; while, the AE scale was significantly related to the focus and release emotions strategy. Also, inverse correlations were found between the sociodemographic variable age and the AR scale, as well as with the coping strategy focusing and releasing emotions. On the other hand, significant differences were reported between the sociodemographic variable sex and the denial coping strategy, and the type of therapy variable and the religious coping strategy. From the study, it is concluded that anxiety is a factor underlying stuttering, as it implies negative emotions such as fear, embarrassment, frustration or anger, ultimately causing an anxiety disorder. In addition, it can lead to forms of non-adaptive coping that could affect personal growth. Finally, it is important to recognize the value of therapy directed by a stuttering psychologist and / or specialist in stuttering, since it can provide the patient with sufficient tools to deal with both stuttering, emotions and thoughts involved.
