Resumen
El TDAH se ha visto como un trastorno con implicaciones y alteraciones cognitivas alejándolo de aspectos emocionales. Se ha priorizado la explicación y la descripción de los síntomas cognitivos y comportamentales, pero recientemente se hace énfasis en las funciones tanto en la regulación y control emocional como motivacional e impulsividad, ya que se asocia con los sistemas de recompensa y la motivación.
Se cree que aproximadamente el 32% de los adultos con TDAH sin presencia de comorbilidades, luchan con síntomas de ansiedad, depresión, problemas emocionales y abuso de sustancias. Se ha planteado que en la edad adulta, los síntomas de hiperactividad e inatención tienden a disminuir o solapan en equivocaciones típicas de la vida cotidiana, mientras que los síntomas de impulsividad tienden a mantenerse.
Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo identificar con los diferentes instrumentos cómo se presenta la regulación emocional en adultos jóvenes y si tienen posible sintomatología asociada al TDAH, como estos llevan la pérdida del control de sus emociones, de la misma manera se analiza las variables de adaptación a diferentes situaciones de estrés y como logran canalizar sus emociones y analizar como esto afecta las diferentes áreas de su vida cotidiana como: el trabajo, la vida social, el tiempo libre, la relación de pareja y la relación familiar. 58 jóvenes entre los 18 y 25 años realizaron el Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ por sus siglas en inglés) para evaluar la regulación emocional y la escala Wender-Utah/WURS que brinda información sobre conductas, estado de ánimo, problemas familiares, con los compañeros y figuras de autoridad, problemas médicos, escolares y académicos.
ADHD has been seen as a disorder with cognitive implications and alterations away from emotional aspects. The explanation and description of cognitive and behavioral symptoms has been prioritized, but recently emphasis has been placed on the functions of both emotional and motivational regulation and control and impulsivity, as it is associated with reward systems and motivation. It is believed that approximately 32% of adults with ADHD without the presence of comorbidities, struggle with symptoms of anxiety, depression, emotional problems and substance abuse. It has been suggested that in adulthood, hyperactivity and inattention symptoms tend to diminish or overlap in typical everyday life misconceptions, while impulsivity symptoms tend to be maintained. The objective of this study was to identify with different instruments how emotional regulation is presented in young adults and if they have possible symptoms associated with ADHD, how they deal with the loss of control of their emotions, as well as to analyze the variables of adaptation to different stressful situations and how they manage to channel their emotions and analyze how this affects the different areas of their daily life such as: work, social life, free time, couple and family relationships. 58 young people between 18 and 25 years of age took the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) to evaluate emotional regulation and the Wender-Utah/WURS scale that provides information on behaviors, mood, family problems, problems with peers and authority figures, medical, school and academic problems.
