El Maestrazgo del Tusón, de Pedro Calderón de la Barca: la dramaturgia de un mito histórico. Estudio y edición crítica
2014
La presente tesis doctoral aborda la consideración del auto calderoniano "El Maestrazgo del Tusón" (1659) en su doble vertiente de texto literario y texto espectacular, facetas inseparables en el análisis de todo texto dramático. El trabajo se ha estructurado en dos partes, de acuerdo con los objetivos perseguidos. En primera instancia, el propósito ha sido el de ofrecer –siguiendo los principios de la crítica textual moderna– una edición crítica fiable de uno de los autos que Pedro Calderón de la Barca (1600-1681) compuso en su época de plenitud dramática: "El Maestrazgo del Tusón", una pieza que, hasta la fecha, carecía de una fijación textual definitiva. El texto del auto se ha acompañad…
Efectos agudos de la actividad física y los videojuegos activos sobre las funciones cognitivas en jóvenes y adultos mayores
2017
La presente tesis doctoral consiste en intentar aportar nuevas evidencias científicas que traten de ampliar y clarificar el conocimiento existente referente a los efectos agudos de la actividad física aeróbica y los videojuegos activos sobre las funciones cognitivas en dos muestras poblacionales diferentes: los jóvenes adultos y los adultos mayores. Como síntesis general, podríamos indicar que el fin de las series experimentales desarrolladas en esta tesis tratan de estudiar si la práctica de actividad física aeróbica con y sin práctica de videojuegos activos, implica una disminución o mejora del tiempo de reacción complejo (medida específica y parcial de la velocidad de procesamiento de la…
Opciones alternativas para prescribir actividad física entre niños y adolescentes obesos: marcha rápida con el apoyo de videojuegos activos
2015
Background: Physical inactivity has been identified as an important public health concern for children. An increasing sedentary way of life is directly related to obesity; hence, prevention and management of childhood obesity are commonly based on lifestyle interventions wherein increasing physical activity is one of the main targets. The use of exergames can be useful in promoting physical activity, but it is necessary more research. This study analyzes the effects of an exergaming platform that involves brisk walking, on perceived exertion, self-efficacy, positive expectations and satisfaction in a sample of clinically obese children, as compared with normal weight children. Physiological…
Sustaining Attention for a Prolonged Duration Affects Dynamic Organizations of Frequency-Specific Functional Connectivity
2020
Sustained attention encompasses a cascade of fundamental functions. The human ability to implement a sustained attention task is supported by brain networks that dynamically formed and dissolved through oscillatory synchronization. The decrement of vigilance induced by prolonged task engagement affects sustained attention. However, little is known about which stage or combinations are affected by vigilance decrement. Here, we applied an analysis framework composed of weighted phase lag index (wPLI) and tensor component analysis (TCA) to an EEG dataset collected during 80 min sustained attention task to examine the electrophysiological basis of such effect. We aimed to characterize the phase…
The Role of Gender, Enjoyment, Perceived Competence, and Fundamental Movement Skills as Correlates of the Physical Activity Engagement of Finnish Phy…
2010
The aim of the study was to investigate the relationships between enjoyment, perceived competence, fundamental movement skills, and physical activity engagement of Grade 7 students participating in Finnish physical education. A secondary aim of the study was to examine gender differences in all assessed variables. The participants of the study were 404 Grade 7 students aged 13 years. The sample comprised 210 girls and 194 boys, who were involved in 23 classes taught by 10 physical education teachers at three secondary schools. Physical activity engagement, enjoyment, and perceived physical activity competence were assessed by self-report questionnaires. Locomotor skill were evaluated by the…

Kylät tulevaisuuden paikallisyhteisöinä
2018
Tämän artikkelin tavoitteena on kylien eli maaseutumaisten paikallisyhteisöjen tulevaisuuden luonteen hahmottaminen. Peilaan jälkimodernin paikallisyhteisön piirteitä aktiivisista kylistä keräämääni aineistoon. Miten jälkimodernille paikallisyhteisölle ominaiset piirteet, kuten kommunikatiivisuus ja avoimuus niissä rakentuvat? Mitä haasteita ne tuovat tulevaisuuden kylätoiminnalle ja kylien kehittämiselle? Jälkimodernit paikallisyhteisöt eivät rakennu vastavoimana individualismille, vaan osana sitä. Ne pyrkivät vastaamaan samalla sekä ihmisten yksilöllisiin intresseihin ja valintoihin että yhteisöllisyyden ja kuulumisen tarpeeseen. peerReviewed
Intervención psicosocial en violencia de género. El caso de la Comunitat Valenciana, España
2018
A pesar de todas las medidas puestas en funcionamiento contra la violencia de género, en el estado español han muerto asesinadas entre 2004 i 2016 870 mujeres y 16 niños y niñas. Cada vez son más las profesionales del Trabajo Social, la psicología, el Derecho, la Educación Social, las fuerzas de seguridad que se enfrentan a estos temas en muchas ocasiones sin la suficiente preparación y sin los recursos necesarios. las intervenciones que se realizan desde las instituciones públicas pueden pecar de epidérmicas. Es urgente una nueva orientación que proponga un cambio radical de modelo social, económico y político.
Behavioral Activation through Virtual Reality for Depression: A Single Case Experimental Design with Multiple Baselines
2022
Behavioral activation (BA) is a structured psychotherapeutic approach for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), which aims at increasing the engagement in activities that might bring enjoyment and meaning to patients’ lives. Although a growing body of evidence supports the effectiveness of BA, enhancing the motivation and activity level of depressed patients is often challenging. In the present study, we explored the effectiveness of a brief BA treatment supported by virtual reality (VR) to facilitate the visualization and anticipation of four pleasurable activities that we tried to re-introduce in the patients’ daily routine. To do so, we conducted a single-case experimental de…
Mouse models of cytomegalovirus latency: overview.
2002
Abstract Background: The molecular regulation of viral latency and reactivation is a central unsolved issue in the understanding of cytomegalovirus (CMV) biology. Like human CMV (hCMV), murine CMV (mCMV) can establish a latent infection in cells of the myeloid lineage. Since mCMV genome remains present in various organs after its clearance from hematopoietic cells first in bone marrow and much later in blood, there must exist one or more widely distributed cell type(s) representing the cellular site(s) of enduring mCMV latency in host tissues. Endothelial cells and histiocytes are candidates, but the question is not yet settled. Another long debated problem appears to be solved: mCMV establ…
