La Ley 41/2002, de 14 de noviembre, básica reguladora de la autonomia del paciente y de los derechos y obligaciones en materia de información y docum…
2003
En el presente trabajo se va a exponer (por su extensión en dos partes) el contenido básico de la reciente Ley sobre autonomía de los pacientes, con referencia expresa a las leyes autonómicas sobre la misma materia. Es de destacar que en todas ellas se consagra como un principio fundamental en la relación médico-paciente el principio de información y requerimiento del consentimiento al paciente para la realización de cualquier intervención sobre el mismo. Asimismo, se establecen los mecanismos de sustituciónde ese consentimiento cuando el paciente no se encuentre en condiciones de darlo por incapacidad o minoría de edad. Por otra parte, se regula mínimamente el documento de voluntades antic…
Stereopsis assessment at multiple distances with an iPad application
2017
[EN] We present a new application for iPad for screening stereopsis at multiple distances that allows testing up to ten levels of stereoacuity at each distance. Our approach is based on a random dot stereogram viewable with anaglyph spectacles. Sixty-five subjects with no ocular diseases, wearing their habitual correction were measured at 3 m and 0.5 m. Results were compared with a standard stereoscopic test (TNO). We found not statistically significant differences between both tests, but our method achieved higher reproducibility. Applications in visual screening programs and to design and use of 3D displays, are suggested. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Using tablets as tools for learner-generated drawings in the context of teaching the kinetic theory of gases
2014
Even though research suggests that the use of drawings could be an important part of learning science, learnergenerated drawings have not received much attention in physics classrooms. This article presents a method for recording students’ drawings and group discussions using tablets. Compared to pen and paper, tablets offer unique benefits, which include the recording of the whole drawing process and of the discussion associated with the drawing. A study, which investigated the use of drawings and the need for guidance among Finnish upper secondary school students, is presented alongside ideas for teachers on how to see drawing in a new light. peerReviewed
HTML5 tablet uutissovelluksen suunnittelu ja toteutus
2013
Keskipohjanmaa-lehdestä haluttiin toteuttaa web-pohjainen, HTML5:tä hyödyntävä tablet-uutissovellus Keski-Pohjanmaan Kirjapaino Oyj:lle. Työssä tut- kittiin uusimpia web-teknologioita, kannettavia laitteita, web-sovelluksen tekemis- tä ja tablet-sovelluksen luomista sanomalehdestä. Työn aikana toteutettiin kolme prototyyppiä ja kaksi virallista tablet-sovellusversiota. Ensimmäisessä virallisessa versiossa rakenne ja data olivat yhdessä sekä osa sovelluslogiikasta oli palvelimen koodissa. Toisessa versiossa data ja rakenne olivat erillään ja sovelluslogiikka oli tehty Javascriptillä. Tehdessä web-sovellusta tablet-laitteille selvisi, että on huomioi- tava suorituskyky ja Internet-selainten e…
New iPAD-based test for the detection of color vision deficiencies.
2018
Purpose: To develop and validate a new iPad-based color vision test (Optopad). Methods: A total of 341 student eyes were enrolled in a first comparative study between Optopad and the Isihara tests. In a second comparative study, Optopad vs. the Farnworth-Munsell test (FM 100H), a total of 66 adult eyes were included. Besides the agreement between tests, the correlation between FM 100H and Optopad outcomes were investigated. Multiple regression analysis was used to predict the total error score (TES) from contrast thresholds measured with the Optopad test. Results: The Ishihara and Optopad tests detected the same anomalous patients. Concerning FM 100H vs. Optopad, 10 subjects were diagnosed …
How online advertising competes with user-generated content in TripAdvisor. A neuroscientific approach
2020
Drawing on cognitive load theory, congruence research, and dual processing models, the purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of online advertising in social media. To this end, three separate studies were conducted. First, using eye-tracking and electroencephalography, we examine the differences, based on whether or not an ad is embedded, in subjects’ visual attention and engagement in a TripAdvisor webpage. Our findings showed that synergies between social media content and advertising content positively affect users’ visual attention. A second study, using an online survey, assessed the impact of congruent/incongruent ads on ad recall. A third study, using ey…
Learner-generated drawings in physics education
2013
Different kinds of visual representations, such as graphs and drawings are important in education but especially in science education. Little attention is paid especially to drawings. Students are required to examine drawings and assimilate the information conveyed by them but not much attention is paid to the students’ own drawings. Arguments can be made for the importance of learner-generated drawings in science education. The subject of this thesis is the use of learner-generated drawings in physics education. A study was conducted to study the use of learner-generated drawings as a tool for meaning-making. The study involved 36 upper secondary school students who were given a drawing as…
Insights into online reviews of hotel service attributes: A cross-national study of selected countries in Africa
2018
Online travel reviews are paramount to trip planning because they help consumers’ form images of destinations. Despite ample studies on hotel service attributes, knowledge is scarce regarding culturally nuanced attributes, including security perceptions. This study examines consumers’ perceptions of service attributes and security/safety concerns of hotels in Africa. Data were extracted from three hotel categories (3, 4, and 5-stars), which were based on TripAdvisor rankings from Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa. A hybrid analysis revealed that hotel service attributes and security/safety are cardinal evaluation criteria for visitors to Africa. Additionally, our study reveals …
Assessing satisfaction of tourists visiting Italian museums: eviden from the eWOM
2022
Museum visitors’ satisfaction is a priority asset for those museums aiming at being competitive in the cultural tourism sector. In this study, evaluations by visitor-tourists, left in their reviews on museums on the TripAdvisor platform, are analysed. Through web scraping, we collected comments for twelve Italian museums left during the year 2019. The content analysis focussed on components of the tourists’ satisfaction among Italian and foreign museum visitors, with emotional response, management, and exhibitions emerging as key concepts in museum’s evaluation. Noticeably, some elements emerged as divisive: i.e., they appeared both among less and most satisfied tourist-visitors
Design and implementation of modelling tasks using iPad's: a dual perspective
2016
[EN] This paper presents the design of two experiences to introduce modelling of physical phe-nomena through modelling tasks using iPadR's. Each of the proposals is designed with adi erent vision about modelling. In one case modelling is used as a vehicle to introduceprecise mathematical contents. While, on the other one, we intend to develop an activitythat can help student to improve their modelling competence. Our aim is to present twoproposals to introduce modelling in a ninth or tenth grade classroom
