Conocimiento y afecto en el desarrollo moral de las personas : efectos diferenciadores del sexo en cuanto a la empatía y al pensamiento moral
1996
The central objective is the evaluation of moral judgment and the disposition to respond in an empathic way in the adolescent population, with regard to two variables: gender and age. The sample consists of 339 individuals (men and women) that study the following courses: primary education (94 individuals), years 5-6 (51 individuals), year 7 (45 individuals), year 8 (66 individuals), year 9 (60 individuals) and year 10 (23 individuals): all of ages between 12 and 19. The tools used are: Defining Issue Test (DIT) by J. Rest (1979), Empathy index for children and adolescents by Bryant (1982), Auto report of Altruism by Rushton (1981). Regarding the results, it is again observed that adolescen…
Una intervención en el campo del desarrollo moral y del autoconcepto
1998
Here we find the results obtained as a consequence of the interference in the development of moral judgment and self-concept of two university groups. The tools used for the evaluation of this intervention were 'Defining Issue Test (DIT)' by J. Rest and 'The Auto Concept Scale' by Fitts. The data indicates that short interventions are more efficient if they act on a single aspect than if they address several simultaneously. The progress in self-concept and in moral maturity verifies the effectiveness of the applied programs. This insinuates the close relationship between cognitive and affective variables in the moral and personal development of those studied. RESUMEN: Se ofrecen aquí los re…
Efecte del tipus d'estudi (batxillerat/Formació Profesional) en el desenvolupament del Judici Moral d'una població d'adolescents.
1996
This study seeks to evaluate and analyze the link between moral judgment development in a group of secondary students from the centre of the Valencian Autonomous Region. The results show the level of moral reasoning of the individuals, which is situated in general at the conventional level of moral reasoning; although the first group reasoned more frequently than the other with post-conventional criteria. On the other hand, it has been shown that post-conventional moral thought progressively increases as the level of formal education rises. The students of Bachillerato have a significantly higher score in post- conventional thought and moral maturity, and lower in conventional thought. 'RES…
Gordon W. Allport en los orígenes de una Psicología moral basada en rasgos de personalidad.
1997
This essay presents the position of Gordon Allport (1937) towards the conclusions of Harshorne and May's Character Education Inquiry (1928-1930). This American psychologist offers an alternative to the 'conductism' of these authors, to explain moral conduct based on a psychology of traits, in other words, from the constancy guaranteed by the personality traits of the subjects. The issue is situated, in general terms, in the controversy between situationists and generalists among the theorists of personality psychology. Allport is a clear supporter of the generalist position against the 'situationism' of the conductists. RESUMEN En este trabajo se presenta el posicionamiento de Gordon Allpor…
Diferencias de género en la empatía y su relación con el pensamiento moral y el altruismo
1998
The object of this present study is to evaluate the relationship between cognitive and affective components of moral development and the altruist tendency. Using scientific literature that points out important gender differences in empathic tendency, it seeks to verify if the difference in gender affects the empathic response of our adolescent population. The empathic study has been carried out with a group of 339 adolescents, 159 males and 180 females, during the school years from 8th year of General Basic Education, to the 3rd year of Higher Basic Education (Bachillerato). The results indicate that women are more empathic than men, independent of the gender of the victim who is the object…
Diferencias psicológicas en razón del Género : una visión multidimensional de la empatía en adolescentes
1998
The last decades have seen a growing interest develop to consider empathy as a multidimensional entity. This essay is situated in this framework of theory, and has as its object to evaluate the differences of gender and age in the cognitive and emotional factors of empathy during adolescence. The tool used for this study is Davis' 'Impersonal Reactivity Index' (1980), which includes four factors: perspective taking, fantasy, empathic concern and personal distress. The results show that gender is a more relevant variable than age during the period evaluated. The differences indicate a higher empathic tendency in women, especially in emotional components. RESUMEN: En las última décadas se ha …
Origenes históricos del libro de J. Piaget 'el juicio moral en el niño': sus fuentes filosóficas y científicas
1996
This essay presents an exploratory study of the historic foundations of J. Piaget's moral psychology, using chiefly his work 'The child's moral judgment'. In particular the religious, philosophical and scientific foundations of his work are looked into. This is partly done using a bibliometric methology, but also carrying out a study of content. The study shows how Piaget's initial hypotheses originate in his fundamental philosophical difficulties, which arise during his university years. Later, Piaget looks for answers in a programme of scientific design, the results of which are in contrast with those obtained by other scientists with interest in the subject, such as E. Durkheim.

Función del nivel educativo y del sexo en el desarrollo moral de los adolescentes
1995
This present study seeks to approach the study of moral judgment development and the different variables that modulate said development. The main objective is to discover to what extent gender and the level of education are related to moral and personal growth in adolescents. The empirical study is conducted with a small group of secondary students (n=524), boys and girls. Results show that the two variables being studied (gender and education) are linked with the moral judgment development of the subjects. Women showed a tendency to guide their moral reasoning by higher principles. The education that the adolescents receive also clearly influences their moral and personal development. RESU…
Editorial: Effect of neurophysiological conditions and mental workload on physical and cognitive performances: a multidimensional perspective
2023
The Research Topic "Effect of Neurophysiological Conditions and Mental Workload on Physical and Cognitive Performances: a Multidimensional Perspective" compiles recent advances in the multidimensional assessment of the effect of neurophysiological status and mental workload on physical and cognitive performance (Aghajani et al., 2017; Perpetuini et al., 2022). Due to technological and data analytics tool advancements, non-invasive and real-time monitoring of the activity of the human central and autonomic nervous systems is now possible, facilitating the quantification of the relationship between physiology and human performance (Ashkanasy, 2004; Cardone et al., 2022). Moreover, questionnai…
Explorations of familiarity produced by words with specific combinations of letters
2010
We explore familiarity-based recognition using a paradigm devised by Parkin et al. (2001). The task consists of the creation of two lists of words written with one of two different subsets of letters of the alphabet. We manipulated study time (50, 100, 200, 500 ms per word) of words with different letter probabilistic structure to those originally used by Parkin et al. Letter-based familiarity responding was robust and present even at rates producing otherwise chance performance. A second experi- ment and structural equation modelling led us to interpret the results from the point of view of a theory that takes into account the processing of similarities and differences (Hunt & MacDaniel, (…
