Thank you for your review.

Reviewer 2 Report

This is a well-desinged and implemented research. I would like to highlight some issues to improve:

- The information about the reliability of each questionnaire ( Cronbach´s data) should be in Results instead of Materials and methods.

- 2.5.3 There are 3 paragraphs with coments about the manuscript. Please, review. 

- 3.1 When giving the general information about the participants, authors only talk about being married. Were there single or divorced participants?

- Line 228-229 The idea is not understood. Review.

- Table 5: Review the title format.

- Line 501 Comments on the manuscript. Review

- Discussion: the presentation of the clusters could be improved. It is confusing.
