Background: The aim of this manuscript is to analyze the degrees of responsibility for healing that psychotherapists attribute to a set of emotional variables of the therapist involved in the therapeutic process. Such variables, framed within the well-known common factors in psychotherapy, have been proven to be essential in making the therapeutic process effective, as has been shown by research in psychotherapy in recent decades. Materials and Methods: Based on an extensive literature review, the responses from a sample of 69 psychotherapists to a tool created ad hoc are analyzed to verify whether their attributions are in line with the results of said review. Results: The therapists have doubts about the factors responsible for psychotherapeutic effectiveness, as well as about the value of common variables, including those of an emotional nature, not valuing them above those of a specific type. They also argue against the similar effectiveness of different psychotherapeutic models. Conclusion: Discrepancies have thus been found between the conclusions reached by research on therapeutic processes and the statements made by the therapists studied, which could indicate an insufficient impact of psychotherapeutic research on clinical practice. We also propose courses of action such as establishing training programs for the acquisition and development of emotional skills for therapists that could increase the effectiveness of their interventions.

The nature of e-commerce prevents the perception of the intrinsic and sensory attributes of wine. In the virtual environment, visual cues allow consumers to perceive the product, determine their attitude and form a preference. Users will choose one product or another based on the visual appeal of the advertisements they have seen. Wine marketers must consider the importance of the advertisement elements and attract the consumer's attention. Optimizing the elements included in these messages can help capture consumers' attention and achieve a higher click-through rate on the ads. The main objective of this work is to analyse the awareness that different advertisements achieve. Specifically, we use a 2 x 2 x 2 experimental design where we manipulate the packaging format (single bottle vs. pack), labelling (bottle without label vs. labelled bottle) for wine ads (white and red). To analyse attention, we used an eye-tracking methodology. The main results suggest that attention is captured more quickly with an individual bottle without a label than with a particular bottle with a label in Google ads. However, ads showing packs of bottles with labels get more attention than ads using packs of bottles without labels.

Internet and mobile are ICT of high magnitude on the social level and provide many advantages, making easier our daily. However, our daily can also become difficult if we don’t use them appropriately. Our objectives were to determinate the problematic uses of Internet and mobile and its relationships with psychological factors. A sociodemographic data were collected and five questionnaires were applied to 229 from students of the University of Cádiz: one scale for problematic use of Internet (CERI) and for mobile (CERM), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the NEO-FFI Inventory, the impulsivity State Scale (EIE). The results revealed that 5.7% had frequent problems with Internet and 2.2% with mobile. The problematic use correlates positively with neuroticism and low impulse control, and negatively with responsibility for both ICT. In conclusion, the data provides evidence of the relationship between the problematic use of ICT and psychological factors, Internet y móvil son TIC de gran incidencia a nivel social. Aunque proporcionan innumerables ventajas, también pueden complicarnos la vida si se hace un uso inadecuado de las mismas. Los objetivos del estudio fueron caracterizar el posible uso problemático de Internet y móvil y las posibles relaciones con factores psicológicos. Para ello, se recogieron datos sociodemográficos y se administraron cinco cuestionarios a 229 estudiantes de la Universidad de Cádiz: Cuestionario de Experiencias Relacionadas con el uso de Internet (CERI), Cuestionario de Experiencias Relacionadas con el uso de Móvil (CERM), Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg, NEO-FFI y Escala de Impulsividad Estado (EIE). La muestra reveló que un 5,7% presentaba problemas frecuentes con el uso de Internet y un 2,2% con el móvil. El uso problemático correlacionaba positivamente con neuroticismo y bajo control de impulsos, y negativamente con responsabilidad en ambas TIC. En conclusión, los datos aportan evidencias sobre la relación existente entre el uso problemático de las TIC y determinados factores psicológicos
