Abstract
The case study was carried out in the city of Trujillo, with a couple of cohabitants, who came to present problems in the relationship. A treatment plan was designed and applied based on the principles and techniques of Systemic Therapy, including ideas from Solution-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Gottman's model. The duration was 8 sessions, where workable treatment objectives were established, in addition to relapse prevention. The Family Cohesion Evaluation Scale-FACES III was used to quantitatively measure changes before and after treatment, as well as the progress scale in each session to know the progress. The results achieved demonstrate the achievement of proposed objectives.

Abstract
Since human existence, people have expressed their behavior and reactions to the different situations that occur daily and they do not figure that out and ignore it many times. These positions are known as attitudes; These are global and relatively stable assessments that individuals make about other people, things or ideas. Attitudes are composed of the thoughts, ideology, emotions, feelings and behavior of each individual.Through the attitudes, the human being can demonstrate his personality and his values; In addition, help to predict completely new situations, generating an increase in the sense of control and, finally, protecting both internal conflicts and external threats against the self. Attitudes are characterized by the direction they decide for or against an object, by the intensity or force with which they occur, and by the relationship of its components. On the other hand, the existence of the attitude-behavior relationship is presented, which is relevant so that people's attitudes can be predicted. Now, if it is already difficult to establish this relationship, as can be imagined that it will not be easy to determine the situations and circumstances in which the change of attitudes will take place.

Abstract
Diagnostic is a key step in achieving the best psychotherapeutic performances. “Mental” disorders were considered based on deeds, factors and life experiences, which had principally taken place in the past, during the first stages of human development.These events were considered the “etiology” or the main root of most behavior disorders.Up to now the essential task of psychotherapists has been to disclose and bring to conscience those unconscious deeds and experiences to yield and broaden consciousness.This was considered the main and only way to eradicate symptoms and remove or cure disorders. We intend to outline a new scheme to help to achieve wider aims. Henceforth not only experiences but also present and future possible psychological development should be spotlighted in order to face likely consequences for the consultant ́s life.This new approach should lead scientists to sharpen their minds in order to get a better understanding and foresee future scopes of overcoming difficulties or disorders.

Abstract
The goal of the study has been to demonstrate the utility of cognitive reserve in the process of healthy and pathological aging. In addition to checking the different complementary theoretical models (active-passive), are also defined the concepts of Memory Reserve, Cerebral Reserve and Cognitive reserve.The variables that take an important part in the configuration of the cognitive reserve like premorbid intelligence, education, cognitive activity, hobbies, and work out have been analyzed, too. Finally, we present the specific questionnaires most used for the measurement of the cognitive reserve.

Abstract
The effect of the live and symbolic exposure technique was studied in 3 groups: 2 experimental (10 subjects in each group) and one control group (10 subjects), with continuous measurements on the physiological and emotional responses of conditioned abstinence syndrome of alcohol dependents.The research design is experimental randomized blocks, with an initial test and respective post test.The procedure for the application of the exposure technique was in two phases: preparation and exposure.The application of the technique managed to decrease the physiological responses and the emotional response (anxiety to consume) of the conditioned abstinence syndrome in the measurement sequences (1, 2 and 3) of each trial and changes in intergroups if they showed highly significant differences (p<0.05) after the presentation of the stimuli.

Abstract
According to experts in the training of engineers, the main strengths of engineering professionals is spatial intelligence that helps you understand and manage the physical forms of their environment. The purpose of this research is to determine the best teaching strategies that develop spatial intelligence. Graphic Engineering courses career of Industrial Engineering, University San Pedro, were designed using both instruments and paper, as computer support and solid materials that could be engineered for two-and three-dimensional representation. The research has yielded such results that the strategy applied rises by 24% the rate of spatial intelligence of students tested, which is a significant risk factor increase this capacity, especially considering that the course taught each of them has lasted for only four months. Despite these encouraging results, we believe that subsequently can be performed similar research that considers other factors and assessment methods are perfected, all of which we detail our findings and recommendations.

Abstract
Psychometric properties were determined in the Questionnaire of Dissatisfaction with Body Image (IMAGEN) in students of the National University of Trujillo. The non-random probability sample (n =576) of a population (N = 1272), with a Psychometric design.The results showed that IMAGEN had a valid item-scale construct validity, with very significant correlation indices (p <.01) with its components and with the test, good levels of discrimination that fluctuated (.465-.843). Factor analysis ratified the cognitive behavioral structure, indexes that vary between .915 and .931. Congruent validity reflected a very strong global correlation (r = .899) with BSQ as well as with factor 1 of the aesthetic models questionnaire (r = .823). The reliability by internal consistency is high (α= .953). Stability established a high significance (p <.01) of the test.
