Resumen

El propósito del estudio fue examinar si la interferencia de la tecnología (tecnoferencia) impacta directamente la satisfacción en las relaciones de pareja e indirectamente el bienestar psicológico y la salud mental de las mujeres puertorriqueñas. Para esto, utilizamos una muestra no probabilística de 342 mujeres puertorriqueñas seleccionadas por disponibilidad. Los análisis estadísticos confirmaron el rol mediador que tiene la satisfacción en la relación de pareja entre la tecnoferencia y las distintas variables de bienestar y salud mental. En general, aquellas mujeres que percibieron mayor tecnoferencia, mostraban menor satisfacción en la relación de pareja, mayor sintomatología asociada a depresión, ansiedad y estrés, menor florecimiento, menor satisfacción con la vida y menor autoestima. Nuestro estudio aporta evidencia empírica sobre el efecto nocivo y perjudicial que puede tener el uso desmedido de dispositivos electrónicos en las relaciones de pareja, así como en el bienestar emocional de las mujeres puertorriqueñas.
