GUARINO, Leticia. Moderated Mediation, Emotional Sensitivity and Coping in the Context of Stress. Pensam. psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.11, n.1, pp.141-159. ISSN 1657-8961.

The present paper describes a theoretical proposal of the stress-illness relationship, called the moderated mediation model, in which the intervention of emotional sensitivity and coping in such relationships are established, with the former acting as moderating variable and the latteras mediating variable of the model. The proposal was subjected to an exhaustive review of literature over the last 15 years on the subject of moderating and mediating variables in the context of stress, and the relevance of their differentiation when integrated in explanatory models. Key words such as "moderation, mediation and stress" were used as search criteria in the bibliographical data bases. Likewise, considerable empirical evidence is offered regarding the influence of emotional sensitivity and coping in the stress-illness relationship in different contexts and populations. The moderated mediation model is being presented as a theoretical proposal to be empirically validated.

Palabras clave : Moderation; mediation; stress; emotional sensitivity.
