Does Childhood Psychological Abuse Contribute to Intimate Partner Violence Victimization? An Investigation Using the Childhood Experience of Care and…
2018
International audience; Although psychological abuse is recognized as a particularly insidious form of child abuse, research on the impact of this type of abuse related to intimate partner violence (IPV) is scant. This study examined the contribution of childhood psychological abuse to IPV in female victims and non-victims. Furthermore, it investigated the role of cumulative abuse in predicting IPV. The study included 38 women victims of IPV and 40 non-IPV women. All participants were investigated using the Childhood Experience of Care and Abuse Interview (CECA); the Revised Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS2) and the IPV History Interview were used to assess IPV in the last year and lifetime, re…

A lo importante, ya van ellos. Una propuesta contextual desde los nuevos materialismos para comprender por qué hay tan pocas mujeres en ciencias técn…
2022
[ES] Desde que Rossi publicara “Mujeres y ciencias, ¿por qué tan pocas?” (Science, 1965), parece que la situación en Occidente no ha cambiado. En el presente trabajo, la falta de mujeres en ciencia la situamos en las interrelaciones entre las elecciones individuales de carreras profesionales y los contextos socioeconómicos de los países occidentales. A partir de estadísticas (Unesco, Banco Mundial…) sobre personas egresadas, empleabilidad, salarios e inversión en I+D, reconstruimos exclusiones y resistencias y proponemos observar que, cuando las áreas científico-técnicas son un escenario socioeconómico de alta empleabilidad y excelentes salarios para personas cualificadas, ellos se desplaza…
La conciliación: dilemas abiertos. Malestares latentes, pactos incumplidos, incoherencias y desencuentros.
2014
El origen de las políticas de conciliación hemos de situarlas en los años 90 del pasado siglo. Nacen como un mecanismo para ayudar a las mujeres a superar el handicap de tener que cargar con los 'deberes domésticos' al tiempo que desarrollan iniciativas para insertarse o mantenerse en el empleo (Torns, 2005). Este trabajo se plantea como objetivos clave el estudio, desde una perspectiva de género, de la conciliación como herramienta para afrontar las necesidades derivadas de las transformaciones experimentadas en la sociedad. El abandono progresivo de los modelos tradicionales de división sexual del trabajo, los cambios sociales en las expectativas individuales de hombres y mujeres, las tra…

Effects of seniority, gender and geography on the bibliometric output and collaboration networks of European Research Council (ERC) grant recipients.
2019
Assessing the success and performance of researchers is a difficult task, as their grant output is influenced by a series of factors, including seniority, gender and geographical location of their host institution. In order to assess the effects of these factors, we analysed the publication and citation outputs, using Scopus and Web of Science, and the collaboration networks of European Research Council (ERC) starting (junior) and advanced (senior) grantees. For this study, we used a cohort of 355 grantees from the Life Sciences domain of years 2007-09. While senior grantees had overall greater publication output, junior grantees had a significantly greater pre-post grant award increase in …
Constancy and evolution of an engaged writing : the work of Carmen de Burgos, journalist, essayist and novelist
2016
Carmen de Burgos died in 1932, leaving behind a considerable amount of written material: thousands of articles published in different newspapers, essays, novels and hundreds of “novelas cortas”. The works and the memory of this women’s rights activist were doomed to oblivion during Franco’s dictatorship. This thesis aims to rediscover and analyse these works from its various perspectives. We have been looking for the constant trends but also the evolutions. Carmen de Burgos has indeed evolved in her conception of the woman’s role and of the rights she had to acquire. In the early stages of her fight, she had been mainly focusing on the acquisition of equalitarian legal and social rights. Sh…
“Heaven and Hell on Earth” A critical discourse analysis of religious terms in Norwegian autobiographies describing personal experience of mental hea…
2013
This article explores the use of religious terms in six Norwegian autobiographies written between 1925 and 2005 by people who themselves have been patients in the mental health services. Through a critical discourse analysis, we discuss the functions of religious discourse in the texts and its position in contrast to the medical discourse predominant in today's mental health services. It was found that religious (predominantly Christian) terms were used to varying degrees in all autobiographies as a means to capture the immensity and inherent ambivalence characteristic of mental health problems. Despite the “medical turn” in professional mental health discourse, there is no clear evidence o…
Margaret A. Simons, Rebel at Heart
2021
Abstract In this interview, Margaret A. Simons describes her path to philosophy and existentialism, her struggles in the male-dominated field in the 1960s and 1970s, and her political activism in the civil rights and women’s liberation movements. She also discusses her encounters with Simone de Beauvoir and Beauvoir’s refusal to own her philosophical originality, suggesting that Beauvoir may have adopted a more conventional narrative of a female intellectual to circumvent the public’s resistance to her radical ideas in the 1950s.
BRIDGING THE NATION AND THE STATE: CATHOLIC CHURCH IN POLAND AS POLITICAL ACTOR
2020
One of the most recognized features of social-political reality in Poland is the role of Catholicism as the determinant of national-political identity and of Catholic Church as the influential political actor. Being undoubtedly peculiar Polish case can be viewed as the example of the religiosity intertwined with national and civil identity existent in different forms in the CEE (Central and Eastern Europe) region. The article aims at casting specifics of Polish case in the wider context of religious-political nexus in CEE stressing the distinctness of the region compared to some other parts of Europe. The conducted analysis focuses on the evolution of Church-state relations in Poland displa…
