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 …

2019

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…

Performance Estimation using the Fitness-Fatigue Model with Kalman Filter Feedback

2016

Abstract Tracking and predicting the performance of athletes is of great interest, not only in training science but also, increasingly, for serious hobbyists. The increasing availability and use of smart watches and fitness trackers means that abundant data is becoming available, and the interest to optimally use this data for performance tracking and training optimization is great. One competitive model in this domain is the 3-time-constant fitness-fatigue model by Busso based on the model by Banister and colleagues. In the following, we will show that this model can be written equivalently as a linear, time-variant state-space model. With this understanding, it becomes clear that all meth…

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…

Le soin dans la technique ou ce que les nouvelles technologies numériques font au soin

2020

Resume Qu’est-ce que le numerique fait au soin ? On presente les dispositifs numeriques comme une reponse aux deserts medicaux, aux inegalites territoriales et comme suppleance eventuelle aux metiers du soin. Mais est-ce seulement possible ? Est-ce que le mode d’investissement de l’espace par le virtuel est articulable sans difficultes a la presence spatiale et corporelle qu’exige le soin ?

Challenging serve myths in doubles tennis

2021

Doubles tennis has received little interest from quantitative research to date. Coach-led anecdotes therefore abound. The aims of this study were therefore to evaluate the veracity of the following common anecdotes: (a) serving teams have an advantage regardless of the length of the point; (b) serving teams have a greater advantage with new balls; (c) regular teams perform better when serving than new teams and (d) serving teams decrease their performance during break points. Data from doubles hard-court and clay-court tennis were collated for 52 doubles teams during 2018 ATP tournaments. Results revealed that the advantage of serving teams was evident on the points lasting up to 4 shots. …

From metaphor to action : embodied language cognition

2016

Las teorias que tradicionalmente han tratado de explicar como la actividad cerebral da lugar a la cognicion se han servido de la metafora del ordenador para describir que el modo en  que el cerebro procesa informacion es transformandola en un codigo de simbolos que pueden combinarse entre si siguiendo un conjunto finito de reglas. Sin embargo, recientes estudios, con paradigmas actualizados y ayudandose de las tecnicas de neuroimagen, nos muestran que las actividades cerebrales que registramos cuando observamos un cerebro implicado en alguna tarea cognitiva son las mismas que observariamos si ese cerebro se encontrase inmerso en el procesamiento perceptivo, motor o emocional de la informaci…

Intérêt d’outils digitaux dans le maintien d’un parcours de soins obésité dans le contexte épidémique Covid-19. Retour de l’expérimentation article 5…

2021

L’épidémie de Covid-19, au-delà de mettre en évidence l’obésité comme facteur pronostique important, modifie grandement la prise en charge de cette maladie chronique. L’expérimentation article 51 Espace médical nutrition et obésité (EMNO) a dû intégrer des outils numériques pour maintenir les parcours de soins. Cette démarche a également été enrichie par l’apport d’un outil d’éducation thérapeutique digital. L’ensemble du processus de prise en charge a ainsi été réalisé malgré la situation, avec un retour très positif des patients inclus dans l’expérimentation. En contexte épidémique, le maintien des parcours de soins d’une maladie chronique comme l’obésité peut ainsi être assuré avec l’app…

Transitions in adolescence and type 1 diabetes: a socio-anthropological approach

2019

Resume L’adolescence est un « moment dense » de l’existence durant lequel une constellation de micro-passages a la fois biologiques, personnels, familiaux et sociaux, s’entrecroisent. Les sentiments d’incertitude et d’instabilite engendres par ces transitions peuvent etre amplifies par l’experience de la maladie. A partir de deux recherches sociologiques et anthropologiques menees sur les transformations du corps et les passages d’âge entre 9 et 14 ans et sur les transitions medicales et biographiques que vivent les jeunes de 12 a 21 ans porteurs de diabete de type 1 (DT1), nous avons analyse la maniere dont les manifestations de la maladie se greffent au processus de grandir. Nous decrivon…

Mental Models vs Integrated Models: Explanations of Syllogistic Reasoning

1996

To compare mental versus integrated models explanations of syllogistic reasoning, we administered a multiple-choice questionnaire containing 19 pairs of syllogistic premises with valid conclusions (given in a C-A order) to 72 psychology undergraduates. Association between our integrated models classification and the empirical difficulty of items was strong.
