Virtual and Augmented Reality Mirrors for Mental Health Treatment
2020
Virtual and Augmented Reality are technologies widely used in a variety of areas, including the medical sector. On the other hand, regular mirrors have been traditionally used as tools to aid in mental health treatment for a variety of diseases and disorders. Although it is possible to build Virtual and Augmented Reality experiences based on mirror metaphors, there are very few contributions of this kind in the medical sector. In this chapter, the great benefits that regular mirrors have brought for mental health treatment are addressed. In addition, a review on the state of the art in mirror-based Virtual and Augmented Reality applications is given, highlighting the potential benefits that…
Condicionamiento de preferencia de lugar: un modelo animal para evaluar las propiedades motivacionales de las drogas
2016
espanolEn el presente trabajo mostramos la tecnica del condicionamiento de preferencia de lugar (CPL) como un modelo util en el estudio de las propiedades motivacionales de las drogas. Se presentan los antecedentes de la tecnica y se discuten algunas cuestiones metodologicas que es necesario considerar para disenar una investigacion empleando el modelo de CPL, como los diferentes tipos de aparatos disponibles, las diferentes fases del protocolo y sus posibles variaciones, el tipo de diseno (sesgado vs. no sesgado) o la necesidad de considerar los efectos del tiempo. Posteriormente se discuten algunas cuestiones a tener en cuenta a la hora de interpretar los datos obtenidos, como que es lo q…
Methodological Aspects of Infrared Thermography in Human Assessment
2016
Infrared thermography presents some important advantages in the determination of skin temperature, as it is a safe, non-invasive and non-contact technique with wide applications in the field of sports sciences. Like many others techniques, valid measurement in thermography requires following strict methodological steps from data acquisition to analyses and interpretation. In this chapter, we discuss the methodological aspects that must be taken into account when acquiring thermic images, along with some practical examples and recommendations based on the current literature.
Emotional Intelligence as a Support for Professional Development in Engineering Education
2019
Abstract Engineering education is an expanding field due to the globalization of the engineering profession. Such globalization is driven by the evolution of both the engineering sciences by themselves as well as the evolution of technology and the professional environment. Approaching emotional intelligence as a support for professional development in engineering education is analyzed as a potentiation of necessary competences and abilities for academic performance in the engineering education environment as well as for reaching a high level of engineering professional performance in a diverse social context. The article includes an analysis of the current state in the field of theory and …

This study analyzed the spatial-temporal interactions that sustained 2-vs-1 contexts in football at different field locations near the goal. Fifteen male players (under 15 years, age 13.2 ± 1.03 years, years of practice 4.2 ± 1.10 years), 5 defenders, 7 midfielders, and 3 attackers, participated in the study. Each participant performed a game to simulate a 2-vs-1 sub-phase as a ball carrier, second attacker, and defender at three different field locations, resulting in a total number of 142 trials. The movements of participants in each trial were recorded and digitized with TACTO software. Values of interpersonal distance between the ball carrier and defender and interpersonal angles betwee…
Modelli di parenting multipli e benessere interpersonale. Una rassegna teorica sull’evoluzione del sistema motivazionale diadico verso il network del…
2016
Models of multiple parenting and interpersonal wellbeing. A theoretical review on the evolution of the dyadic motivational system toward the network of care A theoretical analysis on the evolution of the dyadic parenting model toward the multiple attachment perspective is presented. In particular, looking beyond the monotropic perspective (Bowlby, 1969), a theoretical framework about the integration model as a support of the elasticity of the Internal Working Models is highlighted. Based on these studies, the continuity in the quality of the attachment representations would remain in function also of the changes inside the care environment, in its aspects of risk and protection as well as o…
Télémédecine et accident vasculaire cérébral : étude de coût sur la téléfibrinolyse
2016
Resume Introduction L’accident vasculaire cerebral ischemique (AVCi) est une urgence therapeutique qui necessite une prise en charge rapide par fibrinolyse au sein d’unites neurovasculaires (UNV) sous la surveillance d’un medecin specialise en neurologie. Il n’existe que deux UNV en Bourgogne (France). Afin de diminuer les inegalites territoriales et favoriser l’equite d’acces a cette technique efficace si realisee precocement, la fibrinolyse assistee par telemedecine a ete developpees en Bourgogne dans le cadre du projet TeleAVC. A ce jour, aucune etude n’a evalue avec precision le cout des actes de fibrinolyse ou fibrinolyse par telemedecine dans ce dispositif. L’objectif de cette etude e…
La rétropulsion du sujet âgé: mise au point sur un symptôme grave et proposition d'une échelle pour une évaluation quantifiée
2007
Resume Propos Bien qu'il n'existe a l'heure actuelle aucune donnee epidemiologique sur la retropulsion, ce trouble postural semble relativement frequent chez le sujet âge fragile. Actualites et points forts La retropulsion se caracterise par un dejettement posterieur du tronc en position assise, une insuffisance d'avancee du tronc dont la projection du tronc au sol est situee en arriere de la base de sustentation lors du passage assis–debout et une tendance a la chute en arriere en position debout. Plusieurs situations pathologiques aussi bien somatiques (lesions cerebrales degeneratives, ischemiques, traumatiques), que psychosomatiques (syndrome de desadaptation psychomotrice, alitement pr…
Recent advances of the multipactor RF breakdown in RF satellite microwave passive devices
2016
The main goal of this work is the review of the recent advances in the study of the multipactor RF breakdown phenomenon in RF satellite microwave passive devices for space telecommunication applications developed in the Val Space Consortium. In this work several topics related with the multipactor phenomenon will be discussed.
