The role of practitioners in helping persons make effective use of information and communication technology in career interventions
2019
We examine the role of counselors and other practitioners in delivering career interventions using Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Current benefits and limitations of ICT use provide the basis for recommendations. Potential benefits of increased ICT engagement include cost-effectiveness and improved access to resources and support. Potential limitations include poor assessment and information quality, limited practitioner support when needed, problems with distance intervention and social media, confidentiality of client records, inequality of access, inadequate competencies, and poor implementation. Specific practitioner roles are identified, and those related to social med…
The teaching of the Valencian language and linguistic prejudices. A case study in a secondary school in Plana Utiel-Requena
2020
[EN] The present research deals with the question of the teaching of Valencian in the Spanish-speaking areas where the LUEV (1983) is in force, which determines the possibility of exemption from the subject of Valencian. Specifically, we approach the question of the beliefs and social representations on the language and its teaching from a case study carried out in a secondary school of the city of Requena. The aim of the study is to identify and differentiate the linguistic attitudes towards the Valencian language in this sociolinguistic context and it is an opportunity to present an educational change. The results of this study respond to the ideas of the students and the native teachers …
Linking Economic Stress to Marital Quality Among Finnish Marital Couples
1998
Structural equation modeling was used to test the mediators of economic circumstances on marital quality using a sample of married or cohabiting 36-year-old Finnish men ( n = 133) and women ( n = 117). The model tested was an adapted version of the model presented by Conger, Ge, and Lorenz. For the men, the results were consistent with the proposed model: Poor employment status caused economic strain and affected the lives of the men to the extent that current economic strain increased expected financial strain, leading to greater depression and greater hostility in the marriage, both of which, in turn, predicted poor marital quality. For the women, poor economic circumstances and, in part…

Relación entre formación universitaria y competencia mediática del profesorado
2019
Este trabajo muestra el vínculo entre los niveles de competencia mediática del profesorado no universitario y la formación recibida por el profesorado de acuerdo con los actuales currículos universitarios en España. A partir de nuestro análisis, que se llevó a cabo a partir de los currículos de todas las universidades españolas con formación en educación (un total de 252 grados) y de un diagnóstico de competencia mediática de profesores no universitarios (906 sujetos) de nueve provincias españolas, llegamos a la conclusión de que existe una relación coherente entre estas dimensiones. En otras palabras, las deficiencias en la competencia mediática del personal docente no universitario son un…
Nordic research on educational and vocational guidance: a systematic literature review of thematic features between 2003 and 2016
2018
Educational and vocational guidance has received increased attention with regard to policymaking in the Nordic countries over the last 15 years. This has led to a growing interest in research-based knowledge. Updating an earlier article, we undertake a systematic literature review of guidance research in the Nordic countries during this 15-year period. Features and themes, both country-specific and in the region as a whole, are revealed through the analysis of a variety of research documents. Therefore, this article provides insight into research-based knowledge grounded in the Nordic context—relevant for both practitioners and policymakers on a national, Nordic, and international level. pe…
Personas mayores en riesgo: uso del preservativo ante las infidelidades
2019
Si bien las infecciones de transmisión sexual suelen relacionarse con etapas evolutivas tempranas, estudios recientes ponen el foco de atención en la población más mayor. Sin embargo, pocos esfuerzos centran su atención en dicho colectivo, entre otros motivos, por la propia invisibilización de su sexualidad. Esto ocurre todavía más, cuando se trata de conductas penalizadas socialmente, como sería el caso de la infidelidad. Por este motivo, el presente estudio busca analizar la conducta de uso del preservativo en personas mayores, en el contexto de la infidelidad, así como el papel que podrían jugar variables psicológicas y nuevos contextos sexuales, como internet. Para ello, 244 personas (4…
The Validity of Social Media-Based Career Information
2018
The use of social media expands the availability and sources of career information. However, the authorship of this information has changed from traditional print media and multimedia sources created by experts to social media–based career information created by the users themselves. Although variability in career information validity has been an issue for some time, rapid growth in the use of social media creates some unique challenges. The ease with which social media–based career information can spread creates the potential for rapid widespread dissemination of disinformation and biased perceptions. Potential sources of invalidity include intentional bias (with or without profit motive),…
