Postnatal predator exposure reduces fear and anxiety behaviors in adult mice
2010
Poster; Predator cues are very efficient to induce fear in rodents but most studies use adult subjects and not pups. Nevertheless, a perinatal stress can have a significant effect on behavior and on physiology at adulthood. An early stress (foot shock, restraint, mother separation) is able to modulate behaviors later and the aim of this study was to examine if the synthetic predator odor 2,3,5-trimethylthiazoline (TMT) presented to neonates modifies fear and anxiety-related behaviors in adult female mice.
Scientific Opinion addressing the state of the science on risk assessment of plant protection products for in‐soil organisms
2017
Abstract Following a request from EFSA, the Panel on Plant Protection Products and their Residues developed an opinion on the science behind the risk assessment of plant protection products for in‐soil organisms. The current risk assessment scheme is reviewed, taking into account new regulatory frameworks and scientific developments. Proposals are made for specific protection goals for in‐soil organisms being key drivers for relevant ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes such as nutrient cycling, soil structure, pest control and biodiversity. Considering the time‐scales and biological processes related to the dispersal of the majority of in‐soil organisms compared to terrestrial non…
Synthesis of self-assembled mesoporous 3D In2O3 hierarchical micro flowers composed of nanosheets and their electrochemical properties
2018
This report describes the methodology for the fabrication of mesoporous In2O3 microflowers by hydrothermal and calcination procedures in which In(OH)3/In2S3 acts as an intermediate. Both In2O3 and its precursor were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrophotometry, transmission electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. BET surface area, pore size and pore volume analyses were also carried out. Electron microscopy images clearly evidence the self-assembly of 2D nanosheets into the micro flower structure. The mechanism of self-assembly and calcination is reported. Electrochemical properties of the synthesized In2O3 micro flowers were studied. peerR…
Integrative Strategies in Mixed Methods Research
2020
Despite the critical role of integration as a methodological concept in mixed methods studies, researchers lack a theory for integrating. In this article, we introduce the concept of integrative strategy by analyzing three mixed methods rehabilitation-related studies. These studies represented an analytical strategy based on a multiperspective stakeholder approach, a theory-bound analytical strategy, and a theory-oriented synthesizing strategy. We define integrative strategy as a process in which the system of relations within the study is explicated and justified in accordance with the research purpose and phenomenon. This article contributes to mixed methods research by providing a novel…
Research Perspectives: Reconsidering the Role of Research Method Guidelines for Interpretive, Mixed Methods, and Design Science Research
2021
Information systems (IS) scholars have proposed guidelines for interpretive, mixed methods, and design science research in IS. Because many of these guidelines have also been suggested for evaluating what good or rigorous research is, they may be used as a checklist in the review process. In this paper, we raise the question: To what extent do research guidelines for interpretive, mixed methods, and design science research offer evidence that they can be used to evaluate the quality of research. We argue that scholars can use these guidelines to evaluate what good research is if there is compelling evidence that they lead to certain good research outcomes. We use three well-known sets of gu…
A Velocity Estimation Technique for a Monocular Camera Using mmWave FMCW Radars
2021
Perception in terms of object detection, classification, and dynamic estimation (position and velocity) are fundamental functionalities that autonomous agents (unmanned ground vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, or robots) have to navigate safely and autonomously. To date, various sensors have been used individually or in combination to achieve this goal. In this paper, we present a novel method for leveraging millimeter wave radar’s (mmW radar’s) ability to accurately measure position and velocity in order to improve and optimize velocity estimation using a monocular camera (using optical flow) and machine learning techniques. The proposed method eliminates ambiguity in optical flow veloci…
Bases metodológicas para el uso de la modelización en la enseñanza y comprensión de la dinámica litoral
2017
[EN] This paper proposes the use of modelling to improve the understanding of certain coastal environmentalproblems. In particular the methodological basis that was used to build a consensus teaching model, in-cluding environmental and human factors that determine the dynamics of coastal sediments, is included.The development of the consensus model had the collaboration of experts in coastal sedimentology andecosystems as well as teachers of di erent educational levels (from Primary to University), which helpedselect the ages to which the modelling could be applied, helping also in developing the graphical model thatwould be the base for a future educational intervention
Evaluación del efecto de duloxetina y pregabalina en un modelo de fibromialgia inducida por reserpina en rata
2017
INTRODUCCIÓN El síndrome de fibromialgia (FMS) es una enfermedad que se caracteriza principalmente por dolor muscular crónico generalizado o multifocal de origen desconocido, y la co-existencia de otras manifestaciones clínicas, como las alteraciones del estado de ánimo, los trastornos del sueño, la fatiga, la rigidez matutina, las disfunciones cognitivas, la ansiedad, los dolores de cabeza recurrentes, los mareos, el síndrome de colon irritable y/o el dolor urogenital. La alta prevalencia de este síndrome en la población general plantea un problema social y económico, además, la complejidad de su diagnóstico y la falta de eficacia y efectividad de los tratamientos farmacológicos evidencia …
Entornos virtuales de aprendizaje: modelo ampliado de aceptación de la tecnología
2019
Dentro de la actual renovación de las metodologías docentes, las universidades están impulsando el uso de entornos virtuales de aprendizaje como una herramienta básica en la enseñanza presencial, ya que permite flexibilizar e individualizar la educación. El objetivo del presente trabajo es aportar evidencia empírica sobre la percepción que tienen los alumnos respecto a la mejora en su aprendizaje, al adoptar y utilizar entornos virtuales en la enseñanza presencial, a partir del Modelo de Aceptación de la Tecnología ampliado. La población objeto del estudio son 251 casos de estudiantes de primer grado de la Facultad de Economía de la Universitat de Valencia. Se ha evidenciado empíricamente, …
Multi-resolution anisotropy studies of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2017
We report a multi-resolution search for anisotropies in the arrival directions of cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory with local zenith angles up to $80^\circ$ and energies in excess of 4 EeV ($4 \times 10^{18}$ eV). This search is conducted by measuring the angular power spectrum and performing a needlet wavelet analysis in two independent energy ranges. Both analyses are complementary since the angular power spectrum achieves a better performance in identifying large-scale patterns while the needlet wavelet analysis, considering the parameters used in this work, presents a higher efficiency in detecting smaller-scale anisotropies, potentially providing directional informa…
