Preíndices que determinan la anticipación del portero de hockey hierba ante un golpeo de revés

2015

La tesis se encuadra en el estudio de los elementos perceptivos y atencionales que modulan la captación de información, aspecto clave para la toma de decisión y posterior acción motriz que conforman el modelo de procesamiento de la información (Marteniuk, 1976). Para la correcta ejecución de muchas de las acciones que se realizan en la actividad deportiva, la capacidad de extraer del entorno la información más relevante y procesarla adecuadamente es esencial. Esta capacidad se torna más relevante aún en los deportes de predominio de situaciones abiertas, como las que caracterizan a los deportes de equipo, donde la dinámica del entorno en el que se desarrollan las acciones genera gran cantid…

Real-life assessment of chronic rhinosinusitis patients using mobile technology: the mySinusitisCoach project by EUFOREA

2020

Abstract Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with a substantial personal and socioeconomic burden. Monitoring of patient‐reported outcomes by mobile technology offers the possibility to better understand real‐life burden of CRS. Methods This study reports on the cross‐sectional evaluation of data of 626 users of mySinusitisCoach (mSC), a mobile application for CRS patients. Patient characteristics of mSC users were analysed as well as the level of disease control based on VAS global rhinosinusitis symptom score and adapted EPOS criteria. Results The mSC cohort represents a heterogeneous group of CRS patients with a diverse pattern of major sy…

The importance of pattern similarity between Müllerian mimics in predator avoidance learning

2004

Müllerian mimicry, where unpalatable prey share common warning patterns, has long fascinated evolutionary biologists. It is commonly assumed that Müllerian mimics benefit by sharing the costs of predator education, thus reducing per capita mortality, although there has been no direct test of this assumption. Here, we specifically measure the selection pressure exerted by avian predators on unpalatable prey with different degrees of visual similarity in their warning patterns. Using wild-caught birds foraging on novel patterned prey in the laboratory, we unexpectedly found that pattern similarity did not increase the speed of avoidance learning, and even dissimilar mimics shared the educatio…

Mediterranean Great Conversation

2015

The exit from the Mediterranean emergency requires rethinking its identity in a new perspective. This means recognizing its legitimate role as a “Great Sea in Between”, as a cultural interface able to connect all the citizens that address to it, in everyday life and as individuals, involving them in a real “great conversation” based on the design disciplines. Design, Brand, Visual Identity, Packaging, Social Media, Fashion, Food, Architecture, Music may be powerful antidotes to the immobility of those who mourn a lost Mediterranean harmony and also a viable alternative to the ethnic closure led by the proponents of the Clash of Civilizations.

Visually low-impacting methods for the measurement of parameters related to IAQ risk indicators in exhibition halls

2021

Microclimate for cultural heritage plays a fundamental role in the degradation process of artefacts exhibited in museums. Generally, the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) monitoring inside museums is based on conventional measurements of thermo-hygrometry parameters and longtime averaged measurements of atmospheric pollutants’ concentration. Unfortunately, all these approaches require electric supply and are usually characterized by a noticeable visual impact on the exhibition space, which clearly negatively affects the visitors’ experience. This paper intends to revisit and discuss a methodology (and its test application on field, to estimate the risk of damage of three artefacts displayed in an ol…

FIctional Artworks. Literary Ékphrasis and the Invention of Images

2016

The volume is devoted to images in painting, photography and cinema invented by literature. At the same time it intends to question, through this perspective, the relationship between text and image, between verbal and visual in modern and contemporary literature. The authors investigate the mutual boundaries between literature and arts from the point of view of aesthetics, visual culture and literary theory, trying to build a map of the notional ékphrasis, a description which constitutes the work of art while telling it.

Mujeres Maestras de Perú: investigar en educación artística transitando entornos formales e informales

2016

O projeto “Mulheres Professoras”elabora um discurso que parte da investigação baseada nas artes (IBA) para abordar as identidades das mulheres que se dedicam à docência. É uma homenagem ao grupo de professoras, um trabalho que pretende dar visibilidade a aspectos pessoais e profissionais que afetam as docentes. A metodologia é qualitativa com o estudo de 21 casos em cada país. Anteriormente a pesquisa já havia sido realizada em diferentes partes da América Latina. Em 2016 foi desenvolvido um trabalho de campo no Peru, coletando dados em várias escolas de Lima e gravando entrevistas com mulheres de diferentes níveis sociais, etários e situações particulares. Para 2017, está prevista a exposi…
