The construction of inequalities between girls and boys of success in physical education at the baccalaureate between girls and boys
2004
This research investigates the effect of social and school processes on explanation of the achievement's differences between girls and boys in PE, particularly when they are assessed in team sports in secondary education. The performances of girls often are lower than those of boys. Traditionally, the differentiated performances may be attributed to physiological or sociological reasons. The object of this research, conducted about 1245 pupils and theirs PE teachers, was to focus on a possible differential treatment at school between girls and boys. Teacher's perceptions about sport as a male domain influence the process in which girls receive at school a poorest learning. The relative fail…
Auditory discrimination profiles of speech sound changes in 6-year-old children as determined with the multi-feature MMN paradigm.
2009
Objective: A linguistic multi-feature mismatch negativity (MMN) paradigm with five types of changes (vowel, vowel-duration, consonant, frequency (F0), and intensity) in Finnish syllables was used to determine speech-sound discrimination in 17 normally-developing 6-year-old children. The MMNs for vowel and vowel-duration were also recorded in an oddball condition in order to compare the two paradigms. Similar MMNs in the two paradigms would suggest that they tap the same processes. This would promote the usefulness of the more time-efficient multi-feature paradigm for future studies in children. Methods: MMNs to five deviant types were recorded in the multi-feature paradigm in which these de…
Gender role portrayals and sexism in Spanish magazines
2007
PurposeThe purpose of the paper is to analyse the male and female stereotypes in Spanish magazine advertising during the last three decades of the twentieth century in order to determine if they reflect or not the important cultural changes of Spanish society in these years.Design/methodology/approachContent analysis of 1,033 different advertisements randomly selected. To ensure reliability two independent codifiers of opposite gender worked together, one as an analyst and other as a judge. Three agreement indices were calculated.FindingsUse of male and female portrayals has undergone relevant changes in the last 30 years in accordance with the social evolution of Spain. For both men and wo…
¿La "reina de la fiesta"? Fiestas tradicionales y reproducción de la desigualdad de género. El caso de las Fallas de València
2020
Las desigualdades de género en las fiestas tradicionales han generado una creciente atención social y académica. Fenómenos como el acoso, abuso o agresiones sexuales, los roles segregados o las codificaciones patriarcales que facilitan instituciones festivas muy masculinizadas, tanto en las composiciones como en las dinámicas internas, han revelado que existe una persistencia en el mantenimiento que choca con la evolución de la sociedad hacia una mayor igualdad. En este sentido entendemos que la cultura festiva tradicional no puede interpretarse correctamente desde la dimensión del consenso sino como una arena de conflicto social. En esta perspectiva la idea del ritual festivo como generado…
Electrochemical Characterization of Coinage Techniques the 17(th) Century: The maravedis Case
2017
[EN] The voltammetry of immobilized particles (VIMP) methodology was applied to the discrimination of Spanish maravedis produced in 10 different mints between 1661 and 1664 using characteristic signatures for the reduction of cuprite and tenorite in the patina of the coins and catalytic effects on the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The variation of the apparent tenorite/cuprite ratio with depth was fitted to potential laws differing from one mint to another for A Coruna, Burgos, Cordoba, Cuenca, Granada, Madrid, Trujillo, Segovia, Sevilla and Valladolid coins. Electrochemical data permitted to detect the changes in the composition (with lowering of the silver content) and manufacturing …
Raman spectroscopy characterization of 10-cash productions from the late Chinese emperors to the Republic
2017
[EN] The use of Raman spectroscopy for discriminating monetary emissions, a recurrent problem in much archaeological studies, is described. The method involves the record of Raman signatures of tenorite and crystalline and defective cuprite in the patina based on the idea that subtle, mint-characteristic variations in the composition and metallography of the base metal during the manufacturing process are reflected in the variation in depth of the composition and crystallinity of the corrosion patina. The technique was applied to a series of 10-cash copper coins produced around the transition between the Kuang Hsu and Hsuan Tung last Chinese emperors and the first Republic whose averaged co…
Screening of Iberian Coinage in the 2(th)-1(th) BCE Period Using the Voltammetry of Immobilized Particles
2019
[EN] The voltammetry of immobilized particles (VIMP) was applied for grouping a series of 86 Iberian coins nominally minted in the cities of Iltirta, Castulo and Obulco in the 2(th)-1(th) BCE period for which there are no chronological data. Using characteristic signatures for the reduction of cuprite, tenorite and lead corrosion products in the patina of the coins, voltammetric grouping of coins was proposed. Voltammetric data were found to be consistent with textural and compositional properties of the surface and subsurface of selected coins using FIB-FESEM-EDX. The obtained data confirmed a clear separation between the productions of Iltirta on one side, and those of Castulo and Obulco …
Coordinated Interpersonal Behaviour in Collective Dance Improvisation: The Aesthetics of Kinaesthetic Togetherness
2018
International audience; Collective dance improvisation (e.g., traditional and social dancing, contact improvisation) is a participatory, relational and embodied art form which eschews standard concepts in aesthetics. We present our ongoing research into the mechanisms underlying the lived experience of "togetherness" associated with such practices. Togetherness in collective dance improvisation is kinaesthetic (based on movement and its perception), and so can be simultaneously addressed from the perspective of the performers and the spectators, and be measured. We utilise these multiple levels of description: the first-person, phenomenological level of personal experiences, the third-perso…
Principio delle pari opportunità e divieto di discriminazioni fondate sull'handicap
2012
Lo scritto affronta il tema della parità di trattamento delle persone con disabilità in una prospettiva di diritto interno e di diritto comunitario, con specifica attenzione ai principi sanciti nella Carta dei diritti fondamentali dell'Unione europea. Ampio spazio è dedicato allo studio delle pari opportunità nello sport, avuto particolare riguardo al Codice europeo di etica sportiva, nonchè ai principi sanciti nel Libro Bianco sullo sport The paper explores the topic theme of equal treatment of persons with disabilities with a view to national law and Community law, with specific attention to the principles enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

Libertà di circolazione, divieto di discriminazioni fondate sulla nazionalità e norme sportive sulla cittadinanza
2018
This paper investigates the right of movement and residence of persons in the European Community and the prohibition of discrimination based on nationality, also in the framework of the relations between community law and sports law. In this perspective, after preliminary analysis of the european and domestic rules referred to the above mentioned right of movement, attention will be held to the important topic of Welfare tourism. The investigation proceeds with the examination of the “Sporting Exception” which allows that european rules on right of movement and prohibition of discrimination based on nationality yeld before the international and State’s sport technical rules.
