Detección de los niveles de estrés adolescente y tipos de apego en estudiantes de básica superior y bachillerato en instituciones educativas en la ciudad de Loja en el año 2025.

Abstract

Abstract:Adolescence is a critical stage that generates stress due to biological, physical, and psychological changes. Because of this, adolescents place greater importance on their social relationships, which are influenced by the type of attachment formed during the early years. This research aimed to analyze the relationship between the dimensions of adolescent stress and the dimensions of attachment in upper elementary and high school students in educational institutions in Loja, during the year 2025. A quantitative approach with a descriptive-correlational and cross-sectional design was used in a sample of 55 adolescents. The instruments administered were the Adolescent Stress Questionnaire (ASQ-56) and the Attachment in Interpersonal Relationships Questionnaire (CaMir-R). The results show that the stress dimensions with the greatest impact were worry about the future, difficulty balancing school and free time, and financial pressure. Regarding attachment, insecure styles predominate, especially the preoccupied style. Finally, a significant relationship was found between various dimensions of adolescent stress and attachment styles.
