iENCUIST: development and application of an online psychological support tool during Covid-19 in Spain
Abstract
La herramienta online iENCUIST fue diseñada para reducir el impacto psicológico, tanto en la población confinada como en los profesionales que estaban a la vanguardia de la lucha contra la pandemia por Covid-19. En el primer estudio (N= 2.362) se muestran los resultados del test breve para realizar perfiles de personalidad, compuesto por 34 ítems que presentan buenas propiedades psicométricas. En el segundo estudio se presentan los perfiles psicológicos de los confinados y los profesionales que habían solicitado ayuda psicológica (N= 815). Los resultados indican que las mujeres confinadas presentan puntuaciones más altas en las variables de ansiedad, enfado o disgusto, colocando a este grupo en mayor riesgo de presentar problemas psicológicos. En cuanto a los profesionales, aquellos con más años de experiencia o que enfrentaron crisis pasadas tienen mayor estabilidad emocional, siendo un factor clave en la gestión de crisis. A las 6 semanas se evaluó la utilidad de la ayuda ofrecida por iENCUIST y casi el 80% de los usuarios indicó que aplicaron las recomendaciones que ofrece la herramienta y que les ayudaron a superar la crisis.

In the first study (N= 2,362), the results are shown of the short test to perform personality profiles, made up of 34 items that show good psychometric properties. In the second study, the psychological profiles of confined individuals and professionals who had requested psychological help are presented (N= 815). The results indicate that confined women present higher scores in the variables of anxiety, anger, or disgust, placing this group at a greater risk for presenting psychological problems. As for professionals, those with more years of experience or who faced past crises have greater emotional stability, being a key factor in crisis management. After 6 weeks, the usefulness of the help offered by iENCUIST was evaluated and almost 80% of users indicated that they applied the recommendations offered by the tool, and that they helped them overcome the crisis.
