Motor Coordination and Global Development in Subjects with Down Syndrome: The Influence of Physical Activity
2022
Background: Many research studies have investigated motor impairments and delayed development in children with Down Syndrome (DS). However, very few studies detected these features in adults with DS. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between motor coordination and global development in subjects with DS, including adults. Furthermore, the second aim was to detect any differences in motor coordination and global development as a function of the practice of physical activity (PA) in this population. Methods: Twenty-five participants with DS (10 f, 15 m), with a chronological mean age of 27.24 years and development mean age of cognitive area of 4.93 years, were enrolled an…
The effect of transient visual deprivation on motor cortical excitability and motor learning : a pilot study
2016
Castro, Fabio, 2015. The Effect of Transient Visual Deprivation on Motor Cortical Excitability and Motor Learning. University of Jyväskylä, Department of Biology of Physical Activity, Master Thesis in Applied Biomechanics. 86 pp. We devised an experimental protocol to test the hypothesis that if the performer poses attention on the proprioceptive signals, in the form of awareness of the body in space, this could increase the corticospinal excitability and the overall performance. 10 right-handed volunteers were randomly assigned to either a group performing a skill training blindfolded (BLIND) or in normal (NORM) condition. The intervention included a visuomotor task-related skill training …
Edukacja techniczna wsparciem rozwoju małej motoryki uczniów w młodszym wieku szkolnym
2018
Sprawność manualna dziecka rozwija się w toku różnorodnych ćwiczeń i zadań ruchowych usprawniających pracę mięśni drobnych oraz koordynację oka i ręki. Od tego, jaki poziom osiągnie dziecko w tym zakresie, zależy, między innymi, przebieg procesu nauki pisania oraz wykonania wszelkich prac manualnych, jednym z zadań edukacji technicznej w przedszkolu, a także w kształceniu wczesnoszkolnym jest rozwijanie motoryki niezbędnej do prawidłowego funkcjonowania dziecka w szkole i w życiu. Proces dochodzenia do biegłości w wykonywaniu precyzyjnych ruchów jest długotrwały i uwarunkowany zarówno cechami indywidualnymi, jak też przebiegiem i intensywnością ćwiczeń w tym zakresie. Przedmiotem poniższego…
Lo sviluppo dell’intelligenza linguistica e della competenza comunicativa degli studenti universitari. Un esperimento Brain-Based in Dad
2021
Il contributo presenta l’utilizzo di un approccio di tipo Brainbased allo sviluppo dell’intelligenza linguistica e della correlata competenza linguistico-comunicativa, che ha permesso la sperimentazione di una batteria di attività di Brain Gym (Dennison & Dennison, 2008) nel contesto didattico universitario durante il periodo di Didattica a Distanza (DAD) imposta dalla pandemia da Covid-19. La DAD ha comportato una drastica limitazione di alcuni elementi considerati fondanti per lo sviluppo delle competenze linguistiche, espressive e comunicative quali la corporeità, il controllo visuo-acustico, i tempi d’attenzione, la gestualità, il contatto. Nella sua fase iniziale, la ricerca condot…
La importància del coneixement de les eixides professionals en Relacions Laborals
2010
L’objectiu és presentar un projecte la finalitat del qual ha estat mostrar als estudiants de primer de Relacions Laborals quines són les principals eixides professionals, les competències i habilitats requerides per les esmentades eixides i la seua vinculació amb les matèries objecte d’estudi de la titulació. El projecte està especialment dirigit al grup d'estudiants que ha seguit el Projecte d'Innovació Educativa (PIE) durant el període 2005-2009. Per això s’ha comptat amb la participació en aquest projecte del professorat que havia impartit docència al PIE i també amb un grup de professionals externs a la universitat, directament vinculats amb aquestos estudis. Aquestos professionals van …
Factor selection procedures in a Google Earthtm aided landslide susceptibility model: application to the Beiro river basin (Spain)
2011
A procedure to select the controlling factors connected to the slope instability has been defined. It allowed to assess the landslide susceptibility in the Rio Beiro basin (about 10 km2) over the north-eastern area of the city of Granada (Spain). Field and remote (Google EarthTM) recognition techniques allowed to generate a landslide inventory consisting in 127 phenomena. Univariate tests, using both association coefficients and validation results of single parameter susceptibility models, allowed to select among 15 controlling factors the ones that resulted as good predictor variables; these have been combined for unique conditions analysis and susceptibility maps were finally prepared. In…
Spatial Cognition 2020/1: Book of abstracts : August 2-4, 2021, University of Latvia
2021
Spatial Cognition is concerned with the acquisition, development, representation, organization, and use of knowledge about spatial objects in real, virtual or hybrid environments and processed by human or artificial agents. Spatial Cognition includes research from different fields insofar as they are concerned with cognitive agents and space, such as cognitive and developmental psychology, linguistics, computer science, geography, cartography, philosophy, neuroscience, and education. Research issues in the field range from the investigation of human spatial cognition to mobile robot navigation, including topics such as wayfinding, spatial planning, spatial learning, internal and external re…

Developing emergent literacy in infant schools: a laboratory experience for the construction of the written language
2017
Research, including the educational neuroscience, has highlighted the close relationship between emerging literacy and subsequent learning of reading and writing. Early verification of symbolic and linguistic skills is essential to support the development, and recovery strategies are to be prepared in case of early signs of difficulty. In some infant schools in the Palermo area we carried out a laboratory of the last 45 hours, according to a specific methodological setting, with a dual aim: a) developing the emerging areas of literacy in preschool, b) providing teachers with an objective approach to detect in children reading and writing readiness. The study investigated phonological, lexic…
