Interoception moderates the relation between alexithymia and risky-choices in a framing task: A proposal of two-stage model of decision-making.
2021
Decision-making depends on the context (frame) in which questions and alternatives are presented. Moreover, research has showed that the ability to detect bodily sensations (interoception) and being able to attribute these changes to emotions correctly (alexithymia) influence how we make decisions. The aim of the present research was to study how interoception and alexithymia might affect the Framing effect (FE), a cognitive bias closely related to emotional system. 42 healthy participants completed the Risky-choice Framing task and their interoception and alexithymia levels were measured. Results showed that the participants were more risk-taking under the negative frames in comparison to …
NG2 and GFAP co-expression after differentiation in cells transfected with mutant GFAP and in undifferentiated glioma cells
2020
Introduction: Alexander disease is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the gene coding for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). In a previous study, differentiation of neurospheres transfected with these mutations resulted in a cell type that expresses both GFAP and NG2. Objective: To determine the effect of molecular marker mutations in comparison to undifferentiated glioma cells simultaneously expressing GFAP and NG2. Methods: We used samples of human glioblastoma (GBM) and rat neurospheres transfected with GFAP mutations to analyse GFAP and NG2 expression after differentiation. We also performed an immunocytochemical analysis of neuronal differentiation for both cell types and dete…
Alexithymia and the implicit self-concept of extraversion in women
2016
Abstract Findings from studies using self-reports suggest a negative association between the personality traits of alexithymia and extraversion. Self-report measures are assumed to assess aspects of the explicit self-concept of personality. Indirect measures, such as the Implicit Association Test (IAT), were developed to tap into the implicit self-concept of personality. The present study examined for the first time the relationship between self-reported alexithymia and the implicit self-concept of extraversion. The 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale and an Implicit Association Test (IAT) assessing extraversion were administered to 86 healthy women along with the NEO Five-factor Inventory (N…

El Mal como problema político : el “paradigma Dostoievski” y el nacimiento de la distopía
2016
Fil: Del Percio, Daniel. Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina; Argentina Fil: Del Percio, Daniel. Universidad de Palermo. Facultad de Ciencias Sociales. Centro de Investigación en Ciencias Sociales; Argentina Fil: Del Percio, Daniel. Universidad del Salvador; Argentina Resumen: Quizás uno de los aspectos más inquietantes del mal, visto desde la metafísica, es que posee un sorprendente paralelo con el nihilismo. Sobre ambos podemos decir que son problemas que no tienen solución, pero sí historia. Desde esta perspectiva, la literatura nos ofrece una extensísima lista de ejemplos que ilustran esa doble historia, tan complementaria entre sí, al punto de que cada una permite abrir un horizo…
The Links-Gould invariants as generalizations of the Alexander polynomial
2016
In this thesis we focus on the connections that exist between two link invariants: first the Alexander-Conway invariant ∆ that was the first polynomial link invariant to be discovered, and one of the most thoroughly studied since alongside with the Jones polynomial, and on the other hand the family of Links-Gould invariants LGn,m that are quantum link invariants derived from super Hopf algebras Uqgl(n|m). We prove a case of the De Wit-Ishii-Links conjecture: in some cases we can recover powers of the Alexander polynomial as evaluations of the Links-Gould invariants. So the LG polynomials are generalizations of the Alexander invariant. Moreover we give evidence that these invariants should s…
Planetary activism at the end of the world: Feminist and posthumanist imaginaries beyond Man
2022
We are currently experiencing a planetary crisis that will lead, if worst comes to worst, to the end of the entire world as we know it. Several feminist scholars have suggested that if the Earth is to stay livable for humans and nonhumans alike, the ways in which many human beings – particularly in the wealthy parts of the world, infested with Eurocentrism, (neo)colonialism, neoliberalism, and capitalism – inhabit this planet requires radical, ethical, and political transformation. In this article, we propose that feminist theory, particularly feminist posthumanities, and Black feminist and decolonial thought, together with creative practices such as writing, have much to contribute to tra…
Data from: Phylogenomics of Lophotrochozoa with consideration of systematic error
2021
Phylogenomic studies have improved understanding of deep metazoan phylogeny and show promise for resolving incongruences among analyses based on limited numbers of loci. One region of the animal tree that has been especially difficult to resolve, even with phylogenomic approaches, is relationships within Lophotrochozoa (the animal clade that includes molluscs, annelids, and flatworms among others). Lack of resolution in phylogenomic analyses could be due to insufficient phylogenetic signal, limitations in taxon and/or gene sampling, or systematic error. Here, we investigated why lophotrochozoan phylogeny has been such a difficult question to answer by identifying and reducing sources of sys…

El discurso anticlerical en la construcción de una identidad nacional española republicana (1898-1936)
2002
From the colonial disaster, the anticlericalism was a weapon of the republicans against the Monarchy. In the II Republic old prejudices are emerging just to justify the lay legislation of that moment.<br><br>El anticlericalismo fue un arma de los republicanos contra la Monarquía a partir del desastre colonial.
