Realidad de la Educación Física en la Escuela Rural: una revisión sistemática (Reality of Physical Education in the Rural School: a systematic review)
2019
I: Esta revisión pretende analizar la investigación publicada a nivel nacional e internacional en el ámbito de la EF en el contexto educativo rural. M: El procedimiento de investigación se centró en la revisión de los artículos publicados en las bases de datos WoS, Scopus, ERIC, Sportdiscus y Dialnet. Los artículos contaron con los siguientes criterios de inclusión y exclusión para asegurar la relevancia y el ajuste temático de la revisión área de conocimiento, fecha de publicación, idioma y tipo de documento. Además, se combinaron diferentes términos de búsqueda vinculados con el campo de estudio: rural school, physical education and sport. Tras aplicar los criterios de selección, se anal…
Cosa nostra and Camorra: illegal activities and organizational structures
2016
This article intends to develop an introductory reflection concerning the most recent trends of two of the major Italian mafia organisations: the Sicilian Cosa Nostra and the Campanian Camorra. Following a comparative perspective, the analysis will focus the attention on changes that have occurred in recent years both at the level of illegal activities and at the level of organisational structures. After the bombs of the nineties, Cosa Nostra has moved towards a flexible and less centralised organisation, investing dirty money in the legal economic sector, to reduce its exposure to law enforcement investigations. At the same time, the Camorra clans have considerably widened their range of a…
Learning to live together: a challenge for schools located in contexts of social vulnerability
2017
Currently, there are many educational centres that demonstrate the need to promote initiatives to improve coexistence at school at the international level, especially in those located in contexts of social vulnerability. A socio-educational programme has been developed, applied and evaluated at a Singular Education Action Centre (Centro de Acción Educativa Singular - C.A.E.S) in the city of Valencia (Spain). To ascertain the programme's impact and possible generalization to other contexts, a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group was used. Information was collected from 297 students and 54 teachers based on questionnaires assessing coexistence at school. The results…
The periodic reporting procedure of the United Nations System and the human right to water: opportunities and challenges
2020
A água é fundamental para a vida. Contudo, foi apenas nos anos 70 que o acesso a este bem começou a ser discutido, a nível internacional, como um direito humano. Antes disso, algumas Convenções e Tratados das Nações Unidas reconheciam, de alguma forma, o direito à água, mas tal direito tinha que ser inferido de outros direitos ou estava limitado à uma determinada categoria de pessoas. Independentemente das suas limitações, estes textos podem reforçar a aplicação do direito humano à água, especialmente através dos seus mecanismos de monitoramento: os relatórios periódicos e os casos litigiosos. Assim, o objetivo deste artigo é analisar em que medida o mecanismo de relatórios periódicos pode …
¿Está relacionada la eficiencia en el servicio urbano de agua con la titularidad del gestor?
2015
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo realizar una revisión de la literatura acerca de qué forma de titularidad de los servicios de agua urbana, pública o privada, se muestra superior en términos de eficiencia. Con el fi n de arrojar luz sobre esta cuestión hemos realizado, en primer lugar, un análisis de la situación de la industria a nivel internacional. A continuación se ofrece una exposición de los principales argumentos a favor y en contra de la privatización para finalizar con el examen de la evidencia empírica al respecto. La revisión efectuada no nos permite concluir que alguna de las formas de gestión se muestre indiscutiblemente superior en términos de eficiencia. Sin embargo, e…
History of a Vineyard in Champagne: From Eighteenth to Twenty-First Century
2019
This contribution illustrates the history of the vineyard in Champagne in interaction with the invention of sparkling wines in an area of ancient viticulture. The socio-geographical configuration of this vineyard progressively changed, associating crises and expansions, at the end of which emerges in the twentieth century a vineyard very different from that existing in the early eighteenth century, when the sparkling wine was invented in the Champagne region. In the new Millennium, after the great crisis of the 2008–2009, the shipments of Champagne wines have remained stable overall for a decade, but only exports out of Europe have increased significantly. The sales of independent winemaker…
The Low-Lying Excited States of 2,2′-Bithiophene: A Theoretical Analysis
2004
The low-energy region of the singlet →singlet, singlet →triplet, and triplet→triplet electronic spectra of 2,2'-bithiophene are studied using multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) and extended atomic natural orbitals (ANO) basis sets. The computed vertical, adiabatic, and emission transition energies are in agreement with the available experimental data. The two lowest singlet excited states, 1 1 B u and 2'B u , are computed to be degenerate, a novel feature of the system to be borne in mind during the rationalization of its photophysics. As regards the observed high triplet quantum yield of the molecule, it is concluded that the triplet states 2 3 A g and 2 3 B u ,…
Cambios psicosociales en un programa de intervención con hombres penados por violencia contra la mujer
2012
En este trabajo se presentan los resultados obtenidos en relación a la evaluación de la eficacia de un programa de intervención para hombres condenados por violencia contra la mujer, desarrollado en medio abierto en la provincia de Valencia (Programa Contexto). La muestra está compuesta por 109 hombres. Se utilizó un diseño preexperimental con medición pre y post tratamiento. Según los resultados obtenidos, se producen cambios significativos a nivel actitudinal, reduciéndose las actitudes de culpabilización de la víctima. Por otra parte, se producen cambios relativos a variables psicológicas, experimentando los participantes una reducción de la sintomatología depresiva y, por último, a nive…
Cooperative Inventory control
2005
In multi-retailer inventory control the possibility of sharing setup costs motivates communication and coordination among the retailers. We solve the problem of finding suboptimal distributed reordering policies that minimize setup, ordering, storage, and shortage costs incurred by the retailers over a finite horizon. Neuro-dynamic programming (NDP) reduces the computational complexity of the solution algorithm from exponential to polynomial on the number of retailers.
Distinguishing Trust from Risk: An Anatomy of the Investment Game
2009
The role of trust in promoting economic activity and societal development has received considerable academic attention by social scientists. A popular way to measure trust at the individual level is the so-called “investment game” (Berg, Dickhaut, and McCabe, 1995). It has been widely noted, however, that risk attitudes can also affect decisions in this game, and thus in principle confound inferences about trust. We provide novel evidence shedding light on the role of risk attitudes for trusting decisions. To the best of our knowledge our data are the first rigorous evidence that (i) aggregate investment distributions differ significantly between trust and risk environments, and (ii) risk a…
