A psychological flexibility -based intervention for burnout : A randomized controlled trial
2020
A novel eight-week program based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) principles was created to alleviate burnout-related ill-being and to enhance well-being. This randomized controlled trial investigated the effectiveness of the program and explored whether changes in psychological flexibility mediated the results of the intervention. The program consisted of structured weekly face-to-face group meetings and daily practices provided via a website. Employees from varying professional backgrounds with burnout (mean age = 47 years, 79% female), who all received usual treatment, 1 were randomized into control (TAU, n = 80, receiving no other support) and ACT + TAU intervention (n = 88, r…
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Health Behavior Change: A Contextually-Driven Approach.
2018
Promoting health behavior change presents an important challenge to theory and research in the field of health psychology. In this paper, we introduce a context-driven approach, the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model which is built on Relational Frame Theory. The ACT-based intervention aims to promote individuals’ new health behavior patterns through the improvement of the key construct of psychological flexibility, which is defined as the ability to contact the present moment more fully with acceptance and mindfulness as a conscious human being. Building on the psychological flexibility model, implemented through the six core ACT processes, individuals improve maintenance of lon…

¿Atenuación del compromiso del hablante?: el caso de los evidenciales "por lo visto" y "se ve que"
2018
espanolBuena parte de la bibliografia sobre marcadores evidenciales en espanol senala la atenuacion del compromiso (o responsabilidad) de lo dicho como uno de sus rasgos definitorios. Sin embargo, tanto la nocion de atenuacion como la de compromiso del hablante se han empleado con distintas acepciones, segun los trabajos. En primer lugar, se revisan estas acepciones y se propone, siguiendo a Cornillie/Delbecque, distinguir las nociones compromiso del hablante de implicacion del hablante, las cuales funcionan de manera inversa en algunos usos evidenciales: (i) de las evidencias reportativas a las inferenciales conjeturales hay una escala de menos a mas implicacion del hablante; (ii) en las e…
Dual Careers of Athletes During COVID-19 Lockdown
2021
This study aimed to investigate the student-athletes' capability to face the academic, sport, and social challenges during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown and to disclose novel aspects of dual careers. A 32-item online survey encompassing demographic characteristics, sport and university engagement, support and dual-career benefits, physical activity, sitting time, and the time deemed necessary to recover the previous level of performance was developed. Four hundred sixty-seven student-athletes (males: 57%, females: 43%) from 11 countries, competing in 49 different sports (individual: 63.4%, team: 36.6%) at regional (17.5%), national (43.3%), and international (39.2%) level…
Identity profiles and digital engagement among Finnish high school students
2018
Developing a stable personal identity is considered a more precarious task in today’s society than hitherto. Skilful digital engagement may, however, constitute a valuable asset in necessary identity exploration and commitment. Applying a person-oriented approach, we examined for the first time how identity profiles are associated with digital engagement, operationalized as digital competence, gaming seriousness, type of internet activity and excessive ICT use. After controlling for gender, life satisfaction and parental SES, this study of a Finnish high school sample (N = 932) revealed that adolescents with future commitments and some exploration of options (achievement, searching moratori…

Distributed channel prediction for multi-agent systems
2017
Los sistemas multiagente (MAS) se comunican a través de una red inalámbrica para coordinar sus acciones e informar sobre el estado de su misión. La conectividad y el rendimiento del sistema pueden mejorarse mediante la predicción de la ganancia del canal. Presentamos un esquema basado en regresión de procesos gaussianos (GPR) distribuidos para predecir el canal inalámbrico en términos de la potencia recibida en el MAS. El esquema combina una máquina de comité bayesiano con un esquema de consenso medio, distribuyendo así no sólo la memoria sino también la carga computacional y de comunicación. A través de simulaciones de Monte Carlo, demostramos el rendimiento del GPR propuesto. RACHEL TEC20…
