Psychological factors affecting the participation of pregnant women in physical activities in Uganda
2016
Winfred Nakazibwe, 2016. A qualitative research, exploring the psychological factors affecting the participation of pregnant women in physical activities in Uganda. University of Jyvaskyla. 97 pages. Pregnancy is a time of social, psychological, behavioral and biological change. As such, it is not surprising that it has been identified as a contributing factor to the decline in exercise behavior among women. Psychological factors are among the major factors that affect pregnant women. This is brought about by the conditions related to conception, the experience of two people in one body, a change in physical appearance, doubts about maternal abilities, the capacity of the fetus to mature, a…
El TDHA a través de narraciones ilustradas
2018
A través de esta propuesta pretendemos contribuir a la atención educativa de los alumnos de Educación Infantil que muestran un patrón conductual compatible con el diagnóstico del trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad (TDAH), desde un enfoque preventivo, estimulando el análisis y la reflexión sobre determinados comportamientos mediante el género narrativo, por su valor educativo en esta etapa. Los alumnos de Educación Infantil se encuentran en un momento madurativo de fascinación natural hacia la escucha de narraciones. Presentamos una propuesta basada en narraciones ilustradas, ideadas y elaboradas por alumnos del Grado en Educación Infantil de la Universidad CEU Cardenal Her…
Communicative skills in Spanish children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Analysis through p…
2018
Background Communicative skills are one of the main deficits experienced by children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The differential diagnosis is a complex issue that clinicians often face. For this reason, this study has two objectives: 1) to analyze the similarities and differences that children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and children with ASD present in their linguistic and communicative skills, through parentś perceptions and narrative production; 2) to identify the relative importance of the skills analyzed in discriminating children with ASD versus children with ADHD, as well as the classification power of each of the two measurement methods used. Metho…
Affective Arousal During Blaming in Couple Therapy: Combining Analyses of Verbal Discourse and Physiological Responses in Two Case Studies
2016
Blaming one’s partner is common in couple therapy and such moral comment often evokes affective arousal. How people attune to each other as whole embodied beings is a current focus of interest in psychotherapy research. This study contributes to the literature by looking at attunement during critical moments in therapy interaction. Responses to blaming in verbal dialogue and at the level of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) were investigated in two couple therapy cases with a client couple and two therapists. Video-recorded couple therapy sessions were analyzed using discursive psychology and a narrative approach. The use of positioning, a discourse analytic tool, was also studied. ANS res…
Characterization of antiviral activity of green tea extract and applications for improving food safety
2021
Los norovirus, el virus de la hepatitis A y el virus de la hepatitis E son algunos de los principales riesgos sanitarios relacionados con el consumo de alimentos teniendo un alto impacto en la seguridad alimentaria y siendo responsables de diversas patologías en los consumidores (desde gastroenteritis leves hasta patologías de carácter serio como pueden ser hepatitis o incluso meningitis o encefalitis). Debido a que los virus entéricos se transmiten principalmente por la vía fecal-oral, su presencia puede darse en alimentos que se hayan contaminado de forma directa con material fecal o mediante agua contaminada. Los alimentos mayoritariamente implicados en este tipo de infecciones son los m…
Biological Activity of Extracts from Artemisia arborescens (Vaill.)L.: An Overview about Insecticidal, Antimicrobial, Antifungal and Herbicidal Prope…

Following their evolutionary process, many plants have oriented their secondary metabolism towards the production of complex molecules, which often show an apparent protective function against pests (insects, fungi, viruses, but also competing plants). The identification and the study of such compounds could play a significant role in the frame of the development of new techniques for sustainable plant protection, where they could help in achieving the goal of a reduction in the use of the most highly-impact chemicals. The Mediterranean basin, with its very large biodiversity, represents a huge reservoir of highly promising plant material, which is scarcely explored as far. Indeed, prelimin…
Nenoteiktības nenoturības saistība ar elektrodermālās aktivitātes rādītājiem
2019
Darba mērķis bija noskaidrot, kāda saistība pastāv starp indivīda nenoteiktības nenoturību un elektrodermālo aktivitāti1) noteiktā un nenoteiktā situācijā, 2) neitrālu un negatīvu audiālo stimulu gadījumā, 3) gaidot situācijas iznākumu un pēc tās. Pētījumā piedalījās 25 dalībnieki, ar vidējo vecumu M = 24,62, SD = 4,42 gadi. Tika demonstrēta attēlu un skaņas signālu sērija, paralēli mērot elektrodermālo aktivitāti. Tika izmantota Nenoteiktības nenoturības 12 pantu skalu un DASS-21. Nenoteiktības nenoturības 12 pantu skalas iekšējā saskaņotība bija laba, bet konverģentā validitāte bija vāja. Tika secināts, ka indivīdiem ar augstāku nenoteiktības nenoturību, bija lielāka elektrodermālā aktivi…

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Neuroimaging Coregistration
2013
The development of neuroimaging techniques is one of the most impressive advancements in neuroscience. The main reason for the widespread use of these instruments lies in their capacity to provide an accurate description of neural activity during a cognitive process or during rest. This important advancement is related to the possibility to selectively detect changes of neuronal activity in space and time by means of different biological markers. Specifically, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and nearinfrared spectroscopy (NIRS) use metabolic markers of ongoing neuronal activity to provide a…
