Un mañana significativo: el sentido de vida y la perspectiva de tiempo futuro.
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Los conceptos de perspectiva de tiempo futuro y sentido de vida han sido estudiados durante las últimas décadas por la psicología, pero, no existen investigaciones que los relacionen. Ambos conceptos han mostrado tener impacto en el bienestar y la calidad de vida de las personas. Es por esto, que el objetivo de este estudio fue investigar la relación entre el sentido de vida y la perspectiva de tiempo futuro. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo exploratorio de tipo correlacional Los participantes fueron 72 jóvenes entre los 18 y los 22 años (M= 19.7 y DE= 1.061). Los instrumentos utilizados son la Escala Dimensional de Sentido de Vida y la Escala de Perspectiva de Tiempo Futuro. Los datos recolectados fueron analizados en SPSS 22.0 y se obtuvo un coeficiente de correlación de Pearson. Los hallazgos muestran que los conceptos de sentido de vida y perspectiva de tiempo futuro correlacionan positiva y significativamente; r = 0.720 (0.000) (p < 0.001). Se discuten, además, los resultados a la luz de futuras intervenciones e investigaciones a realizar.
