Differences in the Psychological Profiles of Elite and Non-elite Athletes.
2021
One of the main goals of sport psychology is to identify those psychological factors that are relevant for sport performance as well as possibilities of their development. The aim of the study was to determine whether the set of specific psychological characteristics [generalized self-efficacy, time perspective, emotional intelligence (EI), general achievement motivation, and personality dimensions] makes the distinction between athletes based on their (non)-participation in the senior national team, that is, their belonging to the subsample of elite or non-elite athletes depending on this criterion. According to the group centroids it can be said that elite athletes are characterized by a …
Los modelos de género discursivo en la planificación y revisión de una reseña de lectura
2018
En este trabajo se analiza la incidencia de los modelos de género discursivo en la planificación y revisión de la escritura desde una intervención educativa cuyo diseño sigue el modelo de secuencias didácticas para aprender a escribir. La secuencia diseñada tenía como objetivo que alumnos de 3º ESO elaboraran una reseña de lectura y para ello ofrecía diferentes modelos de este género. El análisis de los datos del proceso (textos intermedios e interacciones) y del producto (textos elaborados por los alumnos) permite vincular el uso de modelos de género, las operaciones de planificación y revisión y la apropiación de los estereotipos (representaciones mentales arraigadas en una dimensión soci…
Resultados preliminares de la eficacia del programa saludiversex de educación afectivo-sexual para adultos con diversidad funcional intelectual
2021
Para promover un desarrollo sexual saludable es necesario garantizar el acceso de las personas con discapacidad intelectual (PDI) a la formación en relación con sexualidad y las relaciones interpersonales. En este sentido, se precisan programas de educación afectivo sexual para PDI que presenten evidencias empíricas sólidas acerca de su validez. Con este objetivo, el presente estudio ofrece los datos preliminares sobre la eficacia de cuatro de las sesiones del Programa de Educación Afectivo-Sexual SALUDIVERSEX: (1) Higiene íntima, (2) Abuso sexual, (3) Orientación sexual e (4) Intimidad. El programa fue aplicado a 43 usuarios de cuatro centros ocupacionales de la Comunitat Valenciana. La im…

In utero exposure to mixtures of xenoestrogens and child neuropsychological development.
2014
BACKGROUND: To date, no epidemiological studies have explored the impact and persistence of in utero exposure to mixtures of xenoestrogens on the developing brain. We aimed to assess whether the cumulative effect of xenoestrogens in the placenta is associated with altered infant neuropsychological functioning at two and at four years of age, and if associations differ among boys and girls. METHODS: Cumulative prenatal exposure to xenoestrogens was quantified in the placenta using the biomarker Total Effective Xenoestrogen Burden (TEXB-alpha) in 489 participants from the INMA (Childhood and the Environment) Project. TEXB-alpha was split in tertiles to test its association with the mental and…
Assessing vaccine efficacy for the prevention of acute otitis media by pneumococcal vaccination in children: a methodological overview of statistical…
2006
Acute otitis media (AOM) is the most common bacterial infectious disease among children. Vaccination is proposed to prevent otitis and several clinical trials were performed to assess the efficacy of pneumococcal vaccines. The way vaccine efficacy is analysed varies among trials. However, the clinical meaning of an estimate of vaccine effect and its statistical test depends on the applied statistical method. We aim to bring the meaning and validity of statistical trial results to the attention of researchers. We consider all methodological approaches for analysing vaccine efficacy applied in pneumococcal vaccination trials included in a recent Cochrane Review. We demonstrate how different m…
Ventricular Fibrillation detection using time-frequency and the KNN classifier without parameter extraction
2017
[ES] Este trabajo propone la detección de FV y su discriminación de TV y otros ritmos cardiacos basándose en la representación tiempo-frecuencia del ECG y su conversión en imágen como entrada a un clasificador de vecinos más cercanos (KNN) sin necesidad de extracción de parámetros adicionales. Tres variantes de datos de entrada al clasificador son evaluados. Los resultados clasifican la señal en cuatro clases diferentes: ’Normal’ para latidos con ritmo sinusal, ’FV’ para fibrilación ventricular, ’TV’ para taquicardia ventricular y ’Otros’ para el resto de ritmos. Los resultados para detección de FV mostraron 88,27% de sensibilidad y 98,22% de especificidad para la entrada de imágen equivale…
Are licensed canine parvovirus (CPV2 and CPV2b) vaccines able to elicit protection against CPV2c subtype in puppies?: A systematic review of controll…
2015
Severe gastroenteritis caused by canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV2) is a serious life-threatening disease in puppies less than 4-months of age. The emergence of new variants has provoked some concern about the cross-protection elicited by licensed canine parvovirus modified-live type 2 (CPV2) and type 2b (CPV2b) vaccines against the most recent subtype CPV2c. A systematic review was carried out to assess the efficacy of commercial vaccines. We conducted a literature search of Pub Med/MEDLINE from January 1990 to May 2014. This was supplemented by hand-searching of related citations and searches in Google/Google Scholar. Controlled clinical trials in which vaccinated puppies were challenged wit…
Guidelines for time-to-event end point definitions in sarcomas and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) trials: results of the DATECAN initiative (…
2015
ABSTRACT The DATECAN initiative (Definition for the Assessment of Time-to-event Endpoints in CANcer trials) aims to provide recommendations for definitions of time-to-event end points in cancer randomized controlled trials. We relied on a consensus method based on a multidisciplinary panel of experts to develop these guidelines for trials on sarcomas and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Background The use of potential surrogate end points for overall survival, such as disease-free survival (DFS) or time-to-treatment failure (TTF) is increasingly common in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in cancer. However, the definition of time-to-event (TTE) end points is rarely precise and lacks unif…
