Presentado como un nuevo movimiento científico llamado a sustituir enfoques tradicionales o remediales en materia de intervención educativa, el argumento principal del movimiento es que la felicidad y la enseñanza de habilidades positivas son factores fundamentales para prevenir problemas de salud mental, mejorar el aprendizaje o promover el rendimiento escolar. En paralelo a este crecimiento, las críticas dirigidas a la educación positiva han sido también crecientes y numerosas, destacando no solo aquellas procedentes de terceros, sino las procedentes desde el propio movimiento. Todas estas críticas ponen en duda la solidez y la utilidad de la educación positiva. El objetivo de este trabajo es ofrecer una mirada panorámica e integradora de estas críticas con el fin de facilitar una mayor comprensión de los principales problemas y limitaciones del movimiento. Estos problemas se organizan en torno a dos bloques temáticos principales: científicos e ideológicos. Dentro de los déficits científicos, el trabajo destaca la ausencia de un marco teórico general y la falta de evidencia acumulada, las notables limitaciones conceptuales y metodológicas en torno a constructos principales y la moderada eficacia, así como la baja generalizabilidad de sus intervenciones clave. Dentro del bloque ideológico, se abordan los principales sesgos y asunciones que subyacen el movimiento, tales como el marcado carácter individualista, descontextualizado y universalista del mismo. Para terminar, el artículo concluye con una breve reflexión en torno a la educación positiva y sus implicaciones en el ámbito de la educación.Publicación A critical review of positive education: challenges and limitations(Springer Nature, 2022-09-08) Cabanas Díaz, Edgar; González Lamas, JaraPositive education has gained increased interest and attention in the last decade. Born as an applied movement within positive psychology, positive education aims to introduce a positive approach to education to aid schools in promoting happiness, improving learning and performance, and reducing mental health problems among children and adolescents. Whereas relatively new, positive education has made notable progress and bears enormous potential. However, the movement still presents vulnerabilities and limitations that need addressing. With a focus on critical and supporting literature, this integrative review explores and brings together some of the most pressing challenges that positive education faces today. Tackling these vulnerabilities would positively contribute to the ongoing advancement of the movement.Publicación Experiencing designs and designing experiences: Emotions and theme parks from a symbolic interactionist perspective(Elsevier, 2020-06) Cabanas Díaz, EdgarThis paper aims to open a theoretical debate on the relationships between spatial design and emotional experiences in theme parks from a symbolic interactionist perspective. Whereas the interplay between emotions and space is fundamental to understanding the production and consumption of experiences at theme parks, this relationship has been insufficiently explored in theme park literature. The paper applies symbolic interactionism to comment on relevant topics in theme park literature such as atmosphere design, experience control, and visitors’ engagement. Against reductionist and determinist accounts of emotions, the paper emphasizes the indirect influence of atmospheres in visitors’ emotional responses, underscores the active role that guests play in the co-production of their own experiences, and stresses the significance of role-playing to understanding visitors’ engagement and immersion in the fantasies that theme parks manufacture for them. The paper also highlights the theoretical and empirical value of emotional narratives to better capture the mixed, complex, and situated experiences that visitors undergo vis à vis spatial designs at theme parksPublicación Varieties of Happiness: Mapping Lay Conceptualizations of Happiness in a Spanish Sample(SAGE Publications, 2022-10-08) Cabanas Díaz, Edgar; González Lamas, JaraResearch on lay conceptions of happiness is essential to determine what is investigated in happiness studies. Whereas psychological investigation has traditionally emphasized the importance of studying people’s everyday conceptions and their relation to cultural and social factors to advance psychological theory, this line of research is still largely overlooked in the field. The Spanish context has also received very limited attention in the area. To fill these gaps, this paper examined 547 lay definitions of happiness in a sample of Spanish participants. The aims of the study were threefold. First, to map and classify the definitions elicited through an open-ended question using a bottom-up approach. Second, to analyze the relationship of happiness definitions with different sociodemographic factors. Third, to explore the relationship between happiness conceptualizations and two different happiness measures. The final classification yielded 39 codes, 15 categories, and 3 overarching types of definitions. Three main findings resulted from the study. First, happiness emerged as a highly heterogeneous concept characterized by diverse social, psychological, and theoretical descriptions. Social types of definitions stood out in the sample. Second, most definitions varied significantly with sociodemographic factors. Third, happiness scores tended to show no significant association with happiness definitions. Implications derived from these results were discussed. Altogether, the paper highlights the value of exploring lay conceptions of happiness to advance toward a more comprehensive and fine-grained understanding of what happiness means for —and, to a certain extent, of how it is experienced by— people of different cultural backgrounds and social settings.Publicación What is the impact of job precariousness on depression? Risk assessment and attributable fraction in Spain(Elsevier, 2024) Belvis, F.; Muntané, F.,; Muntaner, C.,; Benach, J.,; Alonso, F.,; Alonso, D. Á.,; Artazcoz, L.,; Cabanas Díaz, Edgar; Matilla Santander, N.,; Quintero Lima, M. G; Zafra, RThe prevalence of depression related to precarious employment (PE) has become a significant public health concern, given the declining trend of the standard employment relationship. Research has focused on the mental health detrimental effects of employment conditions, whereas there is scarce evidence concerning the burden of depression that could be prevented by targeting precariousness. This paper estimates the impact of PE on the risk of depression and the attributable fraction within the active and working salaried population in Spain. Study design Observational cross-sectional on data drawn from the Spanish portion of European Health Survey 2020. Methods After applying selection criteria and descriptives, binary logistic regression models stratified by sex are used to examine the associations between a 9-categories combination of employment precariousness and occupational social class, and depressive symptoms. Results There is a higher risk of depression among individuals in PE and among those who are unemployed, with a notable gradient based on occupational social class for women. Adjusting by sex, age and foreign-born origin, we estimate that approximately 15.0% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.0%–26.2%) of depression cases among the working population and 33.3% (95% CI: 23.2%-43.2) among the active population can be attributed to PE. Conclusions These findings highlight the public health impact of PE on mental health, provide evidence to estimate the economic burden linked to employment-related mental health, and underscore the need for policy changes and interventions at the level of labour markets and workplaces to mitigate the detrimental effects of PE.
