: This study is exempt from requiring ethical approval, since it does not consist of carrying out any type of experimentation with data or biological material from human beings or animals. This research is social and is aimed at obtaining the response of a group of people to questions that form a questionnaire. But in no case does it involve observational, psychological or behavioral research with the participants. For all these reasons, and in accordance with the procedure established at the University of Extremadura, approval by the Ethics Committee was not necessary for this research.
: In this study, no personal identification data has been collected (names, dates of birth, identity numbers, etc.), no photographs have been taken, and no images have been taken of vulnerable people. However, we considered that people had to give their consent for their opinions to be part of the study. We inform each participant about their rights and to safeguard her personal information. They were provided with similar information regarding maintaining the anonymity and confidentiality of their responses. They were informed that they could withdraw from the study at any time and refuse to answer any questions, informing them if at any time they no longer wished to participate in the study. With all this, all participants decided to contribute in the study.
