Abstract
La presente investigación tiene como propósito estudiar la relación entre las áreas reportadas
de crecimiento postraumático y las estrategias de regulación emocional utilizadas luego de
una ruptura de pareja en un grupo de jóvenes con estudios de pregrado llevados a cabo en
universidades de Lima Metropolitana. La muestra estuvo conformada por 124 participantes,
79 mujeres (63.7%) y 45 hombres (36.3%), cuyo rango de edad fue de 18-26 años, siendo la
edad promedio de 21.20 años (DE = 2.28), los cuales habrían pasado por una ruptura de pareja
en los últimos 2 años. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron el Inventario de Crecimiento
Postraumático (PTGI) y el Cuestionario de Autorregulación Emocional adaptado para el Perú
(ERQP). Se encontró una relación significativa entre el crecimiento postraumático, así como
en sus tres áreas, y la estrategia de reevaluación cognitiva, mientras que la relación con la
estrategia de supresión fue no significativa. Además, se halló una correlación baja entre la
edad y la reevaluación cognitiva. Por otro lado, no se hallaron diferencias significativas en la
percepción del crecimiento postraumático según las variables del contexto de ruptura. De ese
modo, se sugiere investigar más respecto a la regulación emocional como elemento
relacionado a la percepción de crecimiento postraumático.
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the reported areas of posttraumatic growth and the emotional regulation strategies used after a couple breakup in a group of young undergraduate students in universities of Metropolitan Lima. The sample consisted of 124 participants, 79 women (63.7%) and 45 men (36.3%), whose age range was 18-26 years, with an average age of 21.20 years (SD = 2.28), who would have gone through a couple breakup in the last 2 years. The instruments used were the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and the Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) adapted for Peru. A significant relationship was found between posttraumatic growth, as well as in its three areas, and the cognitive reappraisal strategy, while the relationship between PTG and the suppression strategy was non-significant. Furthermore, a low correlation was found between age and cognitive reappraisal. On the other hand, no significant differences were found in the perception of PTG according to the variables of the breakup’s context. Thus, further research is suggested regarding emotional regulation as an element related to the perception of posttraumatic growth.
