Influence of interaction techniques o n VIMS in virtual environments : estimation and prediction

2014

Understanding oculo-vestibular dynamics during sensory rearrangement in the central nervous system plays an extremely important role in better understanding human perception, and improves the technology in many engineering fields. Besides, the sensory conflict that occurs between ocular, vestibular and proprioception during sensory rearrangement at certain occasions might adversely affect the user performance in a wide variety of domains including flight/car simulators, scale-one 3D systems, large-scale displays, serious games, and so on. Therefore, knowing the condition in which the sensory conflict happens has a great deal of importance. This study aims at understanding the nature of sens…

Learning to live together: a challenge for schools located in contexts of social vulnerability

2017

Currently, there are many educational centres that demonstrate the need to promote initiatives to improve coexistence at school at the international level, especially in those located in contexts of social vulnerability. A socio-educational programme has been developed, applied and evaluated at a Singular Education Action Centre (Centro de Acción Educativa Singular - C.A.E.S) in the city of Valencia (Spain). To ascertain the programme's impact and possible generalization to other contexts, a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group was used. Information was collected from 297 students and 54 teachers based on questionnaires assessing coexistence at school. The results…

Exploring work- and organization-based resources as moderators between work–family conflict, well-being, and job attitudes

2006

Abstract In modern Western life it is difficult to avoid work–family conflict. Therefore the resources that might reduce its negative outcomes on well-being and job attitudes come into focus. Our study contributes to the work–family conflict literature by exploring the indirect (moderator) and direct role of three work- and organization-related resources, i.e., job control, family supportive climate, organization-based self-esteem (OBSE), in the work-to-family conflict and well-being/job attitude relationship. Theoretically, the study tested the recently developed Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) model in the Scandinavian context. Data for the study were gathered from three differing Finnish or…

Forced monachizations, judicial strategies and noble logic: Sister Anna Maddalena Valdina

2017

In 1640 Anna, the daughter of the prince of Valdina, was forced to live in a convent (for patrimonial reasons) in Palermo along with three sisters. She was seven years old and remained there until 1699. First she asked her father and then her brother to leave the monastic life that she never accepted. Her story is inscribed within the phenomenon of the so-called "forced monachizations ", to which the Council of Trent had tried to remedy for. After the death of her brother, in 1693, now about sixty years old Anna asked the archbishop of Palermo to nullify his religious profession and to return to the lay state. Thus begins a very severe judicial dispute that triggers a violent jurisdictional…

Perfiles básicos del bandolerismo morisco valenciano: del desarme a la expulsión (1563-1609)

2009

espanolA la imagen del problema del bandolerismo morisco valenciano legada por Sebastian Garcia Martinez se contrapone en estas paginas una vision alternativa, basada en el empleo de dos fuentes principales: los libros de cuentas del Maestre Racional y las conclusiones criminales de la Real Audiencia. Dos son los aspectos fundamentales que se revisan: la geografia del fenomeno, a partir de la distincion entre los lugares de origen de los fuera de la ley y los escenarios donde perpetraron sus crimenes, y su evolucion desde 1563 hasta 1609, periodo a lo largo del cual pueden diferenciarse varias fases, tanto desde la perspectiva de la actividad delictiva, como desde la de la energia represiva…
