Possession in Football: More Than a Quantitative Aspect – A Mixed Method Study
2019
The aim of the present study was to identify and differentiate the factors that determine the possession times of successful and unsuccessful elite football teams, with the purpose of identifying a more effective possession model. For this, match corresponding to the round of eighth-finals, quarter-finals, semi-finals and final of the 2016 UEFA Euro France in which 2,636 offensive sequences occurred, were analyzed. Video recordings of matches were analyzed and coded post-event using systematic observation. The performance indicators recorded and analyzed were: phase; match period; type of start-up; interaction context; intention; field zone; possession time, passes, attack outcome; match st…
Action simulation in the human brain: Twelve questions
2013
Although the idea of action simulation is nowadays popular in cognitive science, neuroscience and robotics, many aspects of the simulative processes remain unclear from empirical, computational, and neural perspectives. In the first part of the article, we provide a critical review and assessment of action simulation theories advanced so far in the wider literature of embodied and motor cognition. We focus our analysis on twelve key questions, and discuss them in the context of human and (occasionally) primate studies. In the second part of the article, we describe an integrative neuro-computational account of action simulation, which links the neural substrate (as revealed in neuroimaging …
Transverse momentum distributions for exclusive $\varrho^{0}$ muoproduction
1992
We have studied transverse momentum distributions for exclusive rho(0) muoproduction on protons and heavier nuclei at 2 < Q2 < 25 GeV2. The Q2 dependence of the slopes of the p(t)2 and t' distributions is discussed. The influence of the non-exclusive background is investigated. The p(t)2-slope for exclusive events is 4.3 +/- 0.6 +/- 0.7 GeV-2 at large Q2. The p(t)2 spectra are much softer than inclusive p(t)2 spectra of leading hadrons produced in deep inelastic scattering.
Música als curts. Un projecte d'innovació per a la lluita contra el fracàs escolar
2013
El present document pretén mostrar un projecte d’innovació educativa per a la lluita contra el fracàs escolar a través de la realització d’activitats per a la promoció de la música. Aquest projecte, anomenat Música als curts, s’ha portat a terme al CEIP Heretats de l’Alcúdia durant el curs 2012-2013. This document shows us an innovative educational project to combat school failure through activities to promote music. This project, called Música als curts, has been carried out in the CEIP Heretats de l'Alcúdia during the school year 2012-2013.

Preference for Fractal-Scaling Properties Across Synthetic Noise Images and Artworks
2018
A large number of studies support the notion that synthetic images within a certain intermediate fractal-scaling range possess an intrinsic esthetic value. Interestingly, the fractal-scaling properties that define this intermediate range have also been found to characterize a vast collection of representational, abstract, and graphic art. While some have argued that these statistic properties only serve to maximize the visibility of the artworks’ spatial structure, others argue that they are intrinsically tied to the artworks’ esthetic appeal. In this study, we bring together these two threads of research and make a direct comparison between visual preference for varying fractal-scaling cha…

Autobiographical memory and the self in a single-case of chronic unilateral spatial neglect
2016
International audience; Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is mainly defined as a condition affecting perception and the mental representation of the environment. However, nothing is known about its impact on the ability to mentally represent one's past and on personal identity. We addressed these questions in a case of chronic USN, DR, a 59-year-old right-handed woman, who underwent a variety of measures exploring the self and autobiographical memory (AM). DR showed preserved self-images and her AM performance was only preserved when memories were prompted by her own self-images and not by self-unrelated cues. Our findings are discussed in light of the interconnection between the self and AM.
Punishment and efficiency: theoretical and experimental approaches
2018
Los dilemas sociales se caracterizan por la desalineación de incentivos privados y sociales bajo preferencias egoístas. Mientras el óptimo social se alcanza mediante la implementación de un conjunto particular de acciones, los incentivos individuales mueven a los agentes a comportarse de una manera diferente, lo cual lleva a resultados ineficientes. Un ejemplo clásico es la provisión de un bien público, donde el óptimo se alcanza si todos contribuyen, sin embargo hay una desviación unilateral provechosa a hacer de polizón, es decir, a no contribuir al bien público y beneficiarse de los demás. De este modo, dar a los agentes egoístas la posibilidad de elegir libremente sus asignaciones lleva…
Economic experiments on gender behavior in financial decision making
2016
¿Son diferentes las decisiones económico-financieras de hombres y mujeres cuando se enfrentan a determinadas situaciones en entornos de riesgo y/o ambigüedad, o en entornos competitivos? En los últimos años, se ha utilizado la economía experimental para el estudio de las diferencias de género. La metodología experimental es especialmente adecuada para este tipo de análisis, puesto que permite al investigador aislar un factor de las decisiones (por ejemplo el género) y examinarlo separadamente de otros factores. Una parte de estos trabajos experimentales ha encontrado importantes diferencias de comportamiento entre hombres y mujeres (entre otros, Gneezy et al., 2003; Niederle y Vesterlund, 2…
