Efficacy of a blended low-intensity internet-delivered psychological programme in patients with multimorbidity in primary care: study protocol for a …

2019

BackgroundThe World Health Organization (WHO) has included comorbidity between depression and a chronic disease among the 10 leading global health priorities. Although there is a high prevalence of multimorbidity, health care systems are mainly designed for the management of individual diseases. Given the difficulty in delivering face-to-face psychological treatments, alternative models of treatment delivery have been proposed, emphasizing the role of technologies such as the Internet. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy in Primary Care (PC) of a blended low-intensity psychological intervention applied using information and communication technologies (ICTs) for the treatment of …

Access to eHealth language-based services for multinational patients

2015

In more and more countries the number of citizens with double nationality is growing substantially. In their developing stage, current eHealth technologies are oriented towards helping the native patients rather than those speaking a foreign language that limits an access to the medical care. Nowadays, most people search the web for the medical symptoms of their disorders before going to the General Practitioner (GP), however multinational patients have limited chance to access eHealth care services not only owning to the lack of medical knowledge, but specifically due to their language barriers. In this study we investigate eHealth services on multilingual information access and online com…

EDU-SOCIAL ALGORITHM: A METHODOLOGICAL MODEL FOR USING SMARTPHONES AND INSTAGRAM IN GENERATION ALPHA’S EDUCATION THROUGH A COMMUNITY OF VIRTUAL PRACT…

2023

The Edu-social Algorithm research project aims to construct a micro-pedagogical, experimental, digital research action to create a methodological model using the functions and algorithms found in social media used by Generation Alpha (specifically Instagram). The project is the manifestation of an explorative research path seeking to alter the algorithms that form the basis of all the major platforms in current cyberspace, and in “Big Tech”. This alteration is possible through the development of a community of virtual practice, consisting of students and faculty working within Instagram through an interactive approach, to take pedagogical advantage of their mobile phones and apps. The quali…

Current communication technologies in language processing

2015

Even the most cutting-edge communication-mediated technology like satellite navigation for orbit positioning, pedestrian movement recognition systems based on inertial sensors, 5G systems, let alone medical devices for coordination of human organs functionality would not be invented without technologies for language processing as an information source between humans and communication systems. Regardless of the way we communicate that is via emails, website short tweets, video conferencing systems, social networking, blogs, instant messaging through websites or mobile applications, or texting only, we use a language that is processed by computer system. Thus, the keynote paper discusses lang…

How social network sites and other online intermediaries increase exposure to news

2020

Research has prominently assumed that social media and web portals that aggregate news restrict the diversity of content that users are exposed to by tailoring news diets toward the users’ preferences. In our empirical test of this argument, we apply a random-effects within–between model to two large representative datasets of individual web browsing histories. This approach allows us to better encapsulate the effects of social media and other intermediaries on news exposure. We find strong evidence that intermediaries foster more varied online news diets. The results call into question fears about the vanishing potential for incidental news exposure in digital media environments.

"My Best Self": Efficacy and underlying mechanisms of a Positive Psychology Intervention

2018

Las Intervenciones de Psicología Positiva son recursos valiosos para promover el bienestar en los individuos que las practican (Bolier et al., 2013), y, concretamente, la intervención del Mejor Yo Posible (MYP) parece ser un enfoque prometedor (Loveday et al., 2016). Se trata de una intervención positiva que pide a los individuos que se imaginen a sí mismos en el mejor futuro posible (King, 2001). Aunque existen muchos estudios individuales publicados acerca de su eficacia, todavía se desconoce cuál es la eficacia general de esta intervención, y se necesita investigación adicional sobre este tema. Además, la investigación sobre los mecanismos que subyacen a la eficacia de esta actividad pos…

Positive clinical psychology and positive technologies

2017

La Psicología Clínica ha avanzado notablemente en los últimos 100 años y en estos momentos disponemos ya de tratamientos psicológicos basados en la evidencia. Ahora bien, esto no es óbice para seguir mejorando esta disciplina. En los últimos 20 años se han producido dos importantes desarrollos que han resultado beneficiosos para este campo. Por una parte, lo que ha supuesto el movimiento de la Psicología Positiva y su cristalización en la Psicología Clínica Positiva. Por otra, la introducción de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TICs) para mejorar la práctica clínica cotidiana. En este trabajo se abordan estos avances y se presenta un nuevo campo de estudio que intenta es…

PPOSITIVE CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND POSITIVE TECHNOLOGIES

2017

Clinical psychology has advanced significantly in the past hundred years, and we now have evidence-based psychological treatments. However, this does not mean that there is no room for further improvement in this discipline. In the past twenty years, two important developments have been identified as being beneficial for this field: on the one hand, the Positive psychology movement and its crystallization in the discipline of positive clinical psychology; on the other, the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICTs) to improve daily clinical practice. In this paper, we address these developments and present a new field of study that attempts to strengthen the ties and …

The relationship between the integration of information and communication technologies and their knowledge

2010

The integration of Information and communication technologies (ICT) requires the teachers to be competent, both technologically and pedagogically. In this work, the competences in ICT of teachers are studied, in particular the relationship between the technological competences and the pedagogical competences. For it, it has been used a survey design and a sample, randomly selected, of the non university teachers of the Comunidad Valenciana, to those that have been applied a questionnaire. It has found a significant relationship between technological competences and pedagogical competences in the sense that the former represent both a base as a facilitator of the latter. This means that the …

Integración de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación en las prácticas docentes de magisterio

2011

En este artículo abordamos la utilización de un Entorno Virtual de Aprendizaje para optimizar la gestión de la información y comunicación de la información entre los agentes implicados en la asignatura Practicum. Inicialmente presentamos una revisión sobre el tratamiento que ésta ha tenido desde mediados del siglo pasado hasta la actualidad en el Estado español. Finalmente presentamos los resultados de un estudio piloto realizado con los estudiantes de Magisterio de la especialidad de Educación Física, que ponen de manifiesto las actitudes positivas del alumno hacia el uso de las TIC y la percepción de la importancia que las mismas tienen dentro de los contenidos curriculares, por lo que es…
