PUBLICATIONS
Biannual academic journal edited by the School of Psychology and published by the Ulima Publishing Fund. It is aimed at practitioners and academics of the behavioral sciences. It serves as a broad, critical and diverse forum that addresses theoretical and methodological articles, quantitative and qualitative research reports, literature reviews and meta-analyses in Spanish, Portuguese and English on psychology as a discipline and as a profession. It promotes a broad vision in which the diverse theoretical approaches and the different applied branches of psychology can find a space for expression.
This compendium gathers together papers that have two different methodologies and revolve around four main topics. The three papers using a quantitative methodology are research proposals, whose authors have raised an issue (problem statement), reviewed literature to elaborate a theoretical framework, and outlined a methodological strategy. On the other hand, the seven papers using a qualitative methodology comprise research reports, whose authors have collected data from small samples and have presented both results and conclusions.
