Sport commitment and adherence: A social-cognitive analysis. (Compromiso deportivo y adherencia: Un análisis cognitivo social).
2011
Abstract Statement of problem: This study aimed to analyse the ability of a model based on achievement motivation and self-determination theories to predict adherence to competitive sport. This model incorporated commitment as predictor of adherence. A prospective study was performed with a sample of 302 handball players aged between 14 and 18 years. Structural equation modelling gave support to the model proposed. It was verified the sequence of relationships between perceptions of coach-created mastery climate, psychological needs, self-determined motivation, commitment, and adherence. The major contribution of the study was to confirm a motivational model of adherence based on social-cog…
Lay definitions of happiness across nations: The primacy of inner harmony and relational connectedness
2016
In well-being research the term happiness is often used as synonymous with life satisfaction. However, little is known about lay people's understanding of happiness. Building on the available literature, this study explored lay definitions of happiness across nations and cultural dimensions, analyzing their components and relationship with participants' demographic features. Participants were 2799 adults (age range = 30-60, 50% women) living in urban areas of Argentina, Brazil, Croatia, Hungary, India, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, and United States. They completed the Eudaimonic and Hedonic Happiness Investigation (EHHI), reporting, among other information, th…
Starppaaudžu attiecību ētiskie aspekti A. Smitas romānos "Rudens" un "Ziema"
2021
Kopš 20. gadsimta vidus demogrāfisko, tehnoloģisko un sociālpolitisko izmaiņu rezultātā pasaulē vienlaikus līdzāspastāv vairākas paaudzes ar izteikti atšķirīgām iezīmēm. Ir svarīgi uzturēt konstruktīvu, atvērtu dialogu starp dažadājām paaudzēm. Literatūra var piedāvāt telpu neierobežotai dialogu dažādībai. Ali Smitas gadalaiku kvartets ir uzrakstīts esošā laika solī, tādejādi atspoguļojot pašreizējos sociālos un politiskos notikumus Anglijā. Šā darba mērķis ir analizēt literāros paņēmienus, ar kuru palīdzību Ali Smita iesaista diskusijā par neatliekamiem ētikas un politikas jautājumiem starppaaudžu dialogā. Ali Smitas romānu “Rudens” un “Ziema” uzmanīga lasīšana atklāj, ka Smita patiesu not…
Arrendaments i parceries. La gestió indirecta de la terra al País Valencià (segles XIV-XV)
2002
In this article, it is studied the market of land lease in the Valentian rural society in the end of the Middle Age. Using notarial sources and court rolls, it is possible to know the economic function that exercised this forms of land management in the agrarian system. The penetration of urban capital through this kind of contracts was always limited. Far from eroding the hegemony of the small peasant farming, leases consolidated this pattern as productive basis of the feudal system.<br><br>En aquest article s'estudia el mercat de cessió de la terra a curt termini en la societat rural valenciana a les darreries de l’Edat Mitjana. A partir de fonts notarials i judicials, es pot …
Apmierinātības ar attiecībām saistība ar personības iezīmēm pāriem ar atšķirīgu attiecību ilgumu
2015
Pētījumā mērķis bija noskaidrot, kādas personības iezīmes ir nozīmīgi saistītas ar apmierinātību ar pāra attiecībām daţādās pāra attiecību ilguma grupās. Pētījumā piedalījās 115 pāri (230 respondenti), 39 pāri, kas pāra attiecībās ir 2 – 6 gadus, 38 pāri, kas pāra attiecībās ir 12 – 16 gadus un 38 pāri, kas pāra attiecībās ir 22 un vairāk gadus. Pētījumā tika izmantota Latvijas Personības aptauja (Perepjolkina & Reņģe, 2013), pašraksturojuma un citvērtējuma forma, un Apmierinātības ar attiecībām aptauja (/IMS/ - Index of Marital Satisfaction, Hudson & Walter, 1982). Pētījumā vīriešu un sieviešu izlasēs tika konstatētas nozīmīgas saistības starp apmierinātību ar pāra attiecībām un apzinīguma…
Las hormigas (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) asociadas a pulgones (Hemiptera, Aphididae) en la provincia de Valencia
2002
Twenty-six species of ants associated with aphids, belonging to twelve genera, are collected. Three subfamilies are identified, being the Formicinae the more represented about number of samples, genera and species. On the other hand, <i>Lasius niger</i> has been the species that is found with a more number of aphids (fifty eight species), and it seems to be the ant with a more capacity to establish associations with the different species of aphids. 224 different associations between the ants and the aphids are established and 164 of them are not recorded in the bibliography consulted for Spain.<br><br>Se han recogido veintiséis especies de hormigas asociadas a pulgon…
Bond and work ruptures in group counseling
2021
Objective: The aim of this study is to explore the immediate effects of group counseling ruptures. Group ruptures were defined as discrepancies between (1) the member’s bonding and working ratings in a session and the member’s average bonding and working across all sessions, (2) the member’s bonding and working in a session and the group-as-a-whole’s (across all members and sessions) bonding and working, and (3) the member’s average bonding and working across all sessions and the group-as-a-whole’s bonding and working. Method: Participants were 232 counseling students (199 women and 33 men; age: M = 22.78, SD = 3.51) who participated in one of 13, 7-session, interpersonal process groups. At…
The complex nature of brand relationships : interpersonal or parasocial love?
2016
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tarjota syvällisempää ymmärrystä kuluttajien ja heidän lempibrändiensä välisten suhteiden luonteesta. Syvempi ymmärrys auttaa organisaatioita rakentamaan ja kehittämään omia brändejä, sekä ymmärtämään, mitä kuluttajat tuntevat brändejä kohtaan ja miksi. Tutkimus keskittyi erityisesti kahteen eri suhdetyyppiin – interpersonaaliseen ja parasosiaaliseen – sekä siihen, kumpaa näistä suhdetyypeistä tutkimus edustaa. Suhteita arvioitiin myös brändihistorian, brändiuskollisuuden ja brändirakkauden käsitteiden kautta. Tutkimuskysymykset olivat 1) liittyykö brändisuhteisiin interpersonaalisia piirteitä, 2) liittyykö brändisuhteisiin parasosiaalisia piirteitä, ja 3…
Relationships between metabolic fluxes and enzyme amino acid composition
2013
AbstractMetabolic fluxes are a key parameter of metabolic pathways being closely related to the kinetic properties of enzymes and could be conditional on their sequence characteristics. This study examines possible relationships between the metabolic fluxes and the amino acid (AA) composition (AAC) for enzymes from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae glycolysis pathway. Metabolic fluxes were quantified by the COPASI tool using the kinetic models of Hynne and Teusink at 25 mM, 50 mM, and 100 mM of external glucose or employing literature data for cognate kinetic or stoichiometric models. The enzyme sequences were taken from the UniProtKB, and the AAC computed by the ExPASy/ProtParam tool. Mul…
Relationships between kinetic constants and the amino acid composition of enzymes from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae glycolysis pathway
2012
The kinetic models of metabolic pathways represent a system of biochemical reactions in terms of metabolic fluxes and enzyme kinetics. Therefore, the apparent differences of metabolic fluxes might reflect distinctive kinetic characteristics, as well as sequence-dependent properties of the employed enzymes. This study aims to examine possible linkages between kinetic constants and the amino acid (AA) composition (AAC) for enzymes from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae glycolytic pathway. The values of Michaelis-Menten constant (K M), turnover number (k cat), and specificity constant (k sp = k cat/K M) were taken from BRENDA (15, 17, and 16 values, respectively) and protein sequences of nine…
