Scanning Tunneling Spectroscope Use in Electrocatalysis Testing
2010
Published version of an article from the journal: Materials (1996-1944). Also available from publisher: http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/ma3063675 The relationship between the electrocatalytic properties of an electrode and its ability to transfer electrons between the electrode and a metallic tip in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is investigated. The alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) was used as a test reaction with four different metallic glasses, Ni78Si8B14, Ni70Mo20Si5B5, Ni58Co20Si10B12, and Ni25Co50Si15B10, as electrodes. The electrocatalytic properties of the electrodes were determined. The electrode surfaces were then investigated with an STM. A clear relationship between the…

However, current dual-task tests appear to be insufficient for early diagnosi…
How do gender, Internet activity and learning beliefs predict sixth-grade students’ self-efficacy beliefs in and attitudes towards online inquiry?
2021
Today’s students search, evaluate and actively use Web information in their school assignments, that is, they conduct an online inquiry. This current survey study addresses sixth-grade students’ self-efficacy beliefs in and attitudes towards online inquiry, and to what extent free-time and school-related Internet activity, gender and learning beliefs explain these. The questionnaire was administered in 10 schools to 340 sixth-graders in Finland. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed three elements of self-efficacy beliefs: self-efficacy in Web searching, the evaluation of sources and synthesising information. Furthermore, attitudes towards online inquiry loaded into two fact…
Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Baseline and Slope of Prefrontal Cortex Hemodynamics During a Spatial Working Memory Task
2020
Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been shown to be an inexpensive, safe, and effective way of augmenting a variety of cognitive abilities. Relatively recent advances in neuroimaging technology have provided the ability to measure brain activity concurrently during active brain stimulation rather than after stimulation. The effects on brain activity elicited by tDCS during active tDCS reported by initial studies have been somewhat conflicted and seemingly dependent on whether a behavioral improvement was observed. Objective: The current study set out to address questions regarding behavioral change, within and between-participant designs as well as differentiatin…
Desarrollo de nuevas estrategias en cromatografía líquida para el análisis de muestras complejas
2023
Desde los años 70, el uso de la cromatografía líquida de alta resolución (HPLC, High Performance Liquid chromatography) ha ido creciendo en los laboratorios analíticos, siendo actualmente la técnica de separación analítica más utilizada. Desafortunadamente, la eficacia suele ser menor que la que se logra en otras técnicas de separación como la cromatografía de gases y la electroforesis capilar. Esto restringe el análisis de muestras complejas. De ahí el gran esfuerzo dedicado a aumentar la eficacia y selectividad en HPLC, con importantes mejoras desde el inicio de la técnica. A pesar de los avances en las últimas décadas, con el desarrollo de instrumentación cada vez más sofisticada, y la m…
Motivación y aprendizaje escolar en la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria: Un estudio empírico desde el Modelo de Calidad de Situación Educativa
2015
La desmotivación de los alumnos/as es uno de los principales problemas con los que se enfrenta actualmente el profesorado, sobre todo en los niveles de educación secundaria. Basándonos en el Modelo de Calidad de Situación Educativa (MCSE) (Doménech, 2006, 2007, 2011a, 2011b, 2012, 2013 y Doménech-Betoret, Gómez-Artiga y Lloret-Segura, 2014), este estudio, compuesto de cuatro investigaciones independientes, examina a) cómo se genera la motivación de los alumnos/as de secundaria y cómo ésta va evolucionando a lo largo del curso en función de sus variables personales y de la percepción que éstos se formen del contexto de la situación educativa. Además, b) examina de forma simultánea el efecto …
Estudio experimental comparado de marcadores bioquímicos en la infección por Fasciola hepatica y F. gigantica
2017
Fascioliasis is caused by the genetically and phenotypically very close Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. The latter, always considered secondary in human infection, appears nowadays increasingly involved in human endemic areas of Africa and Asia. Unfortunately, little is known about the pathogenicity of this liver fluke species, mainly due to difficulties assessing the moment of a patient's infection in the anamnesis and in the differential diagnosis with F. hepatica. This is the first experimental study comparing F. hepatica and F. gigantica in a long-term study of up to 24 weeks with genotypically and phenotypically standardised fluke strains in the same animal model host, the Guirra s…
