The Fear of Covid-19 Scale (FCV-19S) in Spain: Adaptation and Confirmatory Evidence of Construct and Concurrent Validity
2021
Fear of the coronavirus has important implications on mental health. In western countries, a significant degree of vaccination has been achieved, but in Spain, less than 75% of the population has received both doses. The current situation is still seen as a threat by many people. Therefore, it is important to have reliable and valid measurement instruments to assess the impact of COVID-19 on the population. In this study, the Fear of COVID-19 Scale has been adapted to Spain, and its psychometric properties have been studied in a Spanish sample using Structural Equation Modeling. This methodology allows obtaining more reliable estimates, regardless of the measurement scale of the variables. …

Applications of Microlocal Analysis in Inverse Problems
2020
This note reviews certain classical applications of microlocal analysis in inverse problems. The text is based on lecture notes for a postgraduate level minicourse on applications of microlocal analysis in inverse problems, given in Helsinki and Shanghai in June 2019.
Mi descrivi il tuo disegno del Mattoncino Lego? Un’esperienza didattica di matematica nella scuola dell’infanzia
2018
La consapevolezza dell’importanza di guardare, attraverso una lente di tipo matematico, i disegni prodotti dai bambini, considerandoli come strumento diagnostico per quello che D’Amore et al. (2004) chiamano come il “Campo di Esperienza” Spazio, Ordine e Misura, ha dato spunto a questo contributo che discute una sperimentazione didattica condotta in una sezione di scuola dell’infanzia (5 anni). All’interno della stessa è stato chiesto ai bambini di rappresentare dei mattoncini Lego con un disegno, e di descrivere successivamente i propri elaborati rintracciando e argomentando in essi eventuali segni di scarto numerico-spaziali rispetto al mattoncino osservato/manipolato, attraverso visioni …
Il ruolo della comprensione del testo nel processo di matematizzazione e modellizzazione
2017
In questo articolo vengono analizzate le risposte fornite a un interessante item relativo alla Prova standardizzata di matematica somministrata nel maggio 2015 a tutti gli allievi di quinta elementare del Canton Ticino. A partire dai risultati statistici emersi da un campione di 508 protocolli selezionati, viene presentata un’analisi qualitativa effettuata su un campione più ristretto di 174 studenti di prima media, allo scopo di rintracciare le cause delle difficoltà emerse nella risoluzione. Da questa analisi si rileva come le risposte sbagliate di diversi studenti siano legate a difficoltà nella comprensione del testo dell’item, in particolare a difficoltà di interpretazione linguistica.…
Albanian students’ motives for preferring certain real-life situations for learning mathematics
2011
This article reports on a qualitative investigation of Albanian students’ motives for preferring certain real-life situations to be used in school mathematics, and possible connections of these motives to characteristics and issues within Albanian society. It is based on realistic interviews with students from Grades 8 and 9 in a school in the district of Shkodra in northern Albania. Interviews were conducted after students experienced five teaching units which dealt with mathematics embedded in real-life situations. Results are expressed in terms of contextmechanism-outcome configurations as proposed by critical realist theory. Most of the resultsare supported by those from a previous quan…
Mariano Benlliure Gil, artífice de la recuperación del patrimonio escultórico para la Cofradía California de Cartagena
2020
After the patrimonial destruction that took place during the Civil War of 1936-1939 in the city of Cartagena, religious art and especially sacred sculpture, is greatly affected. The artistic expressions that the Passionist entities took to the streets on the days of Holy Week, disappear almost in their entirety, having to start a tremendously costly reconstruction process in order to alleviate the losses suffered. The Cofradía California commissioned the renovation of its sculptural patrimony heritage, which came to replace the wealth of the works of Salzillo, to the Valencian artist Mariano Benlliure Gil. All this process is the one studied in this article, keeping in mind the different bi…
Análisis de los antecedentes histórico-filosóficos de la "paradoja cognitiva de Duval"
2015
In a famous article published in 1993, Raymond Duval highlighted a simple fact: the student may confuse the mathematical object O he is trying to build cognitively with one of its semiotic representations R(O). Duval explained that this confusion was due to a sort of inevitable paradox: only someone who has already built O, can recognize R(O) as a representation of O and not as an object in itself. Thereafter, this thought has been extremely influential for researchers. However, even if in different terms, many scholars of semiotics have emphasized the same phenomenon. In this paper we propose to remind some of them. En un famoso artículo publicado en 1993, Raymond Duval evidenciaba el sigu…
Motywy myśliwskie i łowieckie w "Płomyku" (1917-1939)
2016
The review of hunting texts published in the interwar periodical Płomyk shows their formal, genre, and narrative variety. In the periodical, literary works such as short stories, legends, folk tales, and memoirs function on nearly equal rights as paraliterary and joumalistic texts (reportages, discussions, prose of memorial and documentary character). One may distinguish two conventions: the realistic and the fabular-fantastical, with the former being dominant. They are joined by the common goal: to teach about culture, natural history, and geography, and to invoke emotions. The authors describe charms and natural riches of the country, while trying to convey educational values: responsibil…
Two‐sample problems in statistical data modelling
2010
A common problem in mathematical statistics is to check whether two samples differ from each other. From modelling point of view it is possible to make a statistical test for the equality of two means or alternatively two distribution functions. The second approach allows to represent the two‐sample test graphically. This can be done by adding simultaneous confidence bands to the probability‐probability (P — P) or quantile‐quantile (Q — Q) plots. In this paper we compare empirically the accuracy of the classical two‐sample t‐test, empirical likelihood method and several bootstrap methods. For a real data example both Q — Q and P — P plots with simultaneous confidence bands have been plotted…
