| dc.description | The fact that social support generates satisfaction and an optimal emotional development in an individual, resulting in positive consequences for his/her health and providing benefits for both the quality of life of the individual and the people belonging to his/her human environment, is well known. The individual's perception of receiving support and the awareness of a reliable and effective network constitute a determining factor for his/her health status, irrespectively of his/her real condition The purpose of the present work was to analyse the current status of labour and extra-labour-based social support and to assess its association with any social-demographic and labour variables among family physicians employed by two health care institutions at the urban area of Guadalajara, Mexico.The study design was cross-sectional and descriptive. The study population consisted of family physicians from both institutions. A general data survey and the Social Resources Inventory of Díaz Veiga were conducted to assess social support.From a total of 196 physicians who were enrolled, 73 were female and 123 were male. The mean age was 46.29. Most of them were married (79.7%). The highest degree in education attained was the medical specialty (92.9%) and 52.8% worked during the mornings. In general, social support networks available to the physicians were ranked as "very good". The latter was decisive enough as to explain the lack of associations with or risk factors for any manifestation of disease.The recommendation is to maintain the available support network, and for those lacking one, to create a support network and to adequately maintain it. | en-US |
| dc.description | Es conocido que el apoyo social genera en el individuo un desarrollo óptimo emocional y satisfactorio con consecuencias positivas hacia su salud, en beneficio de su calidad de vida y de las personas que le rodean. La percepción que el sujeto tiene de que recibe apoyo, de que su red es confiable y efectiva, es un determinante importante de su estado de salud, independientemente de la condición real del sujeto.El objetivo del trabajo fue analizar las condiciones en que se encuentra el apoyo social extralaboral y laboral y su asociación con alguna variables sociodemográficas y laborales en los médicos familiares, que laboran para dos instituciones de salud en la zona metropolitana de Guadalajara, México.El estudio es descriptivo y transversal. La población incluye a los médicos familiares de ambas instituciones. Se les aplicó un cuestionario de datos generales y el inventario de Recursos Sociales de Díaz Veiga para evaluar el apoyo social.Participaron 196 médicos, 73 mujeres y 123 hombres, el promedio de edad fue de 46.29 años, la mayoría de ellos son casados (79,7%), el nivel máximo de estudios es la especialidad (92,9%) y el 52,8% trabaja por las mañanas. En general las redes sociales de apoyo con las que cuentan los médicos fueron "muy buenas", lo bastante como para no observarse asociación ni factores de riesgo con alguna manifestación en salud.Se sugiere continuar con su red apoyo y, para quienes no la tienen, habrá que crearla y mantenerla adecuadamente. | es-ES |
