Honest mistake or perhaps not: The role of descriptive and injunctive norms on the magnitude of dishonesty
2021
Trivial acts of dishonesty are very prevalent in everyday life and have severe economic and societal consequences. The present study aims to examine the role of descriptive and injunctive norms in minor and major dishonesty under ambiguity. We devised a novel experimental design in which rule violations can be the result of honest mistakes or various dishonest processes. In this ambiguous context, we observed a high prevalence of minor rule violations at baseline. In two experiments, exposure to increased peer cheating (i.e., negative descriptive norms) promoted major rule violations, whereas the presence of explicit or subtle rule reminders (i.e., injunctive norms) marginally reduced minor…

La inclusión educativa de alumnos con discapacidades graves y permanentes en la Unión Europea
2014
Resumen tomado de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave en inglés español Se presenta un estudio comparado de la atención realizada a los alumnos con discapacidades graves y permanentes en los seis países de la UE que presentan mayores índices de inclusión educativa (Italia, Grecia, Portugal, Noruega, Chipre e Islandia). Dicho estudio está realizado teniendo en cuenta los siguientes indicadores: concepción de las necesidades educativas especiales, identificación de los déficit, alumnado escolarizado en Centros Específicos de Educación Especial, marco legislativo, responsabilidad de escolarización y prestación de servicios, modelo y modalidades de escolarización, estado y funciones…
Iron oxide superparamagnetic nanocarriers bearing amphiphilic N-heterocyclic choline analogues as potential antimicrobial agents
2015
Magnetic nanoparticles represent an advanced tool in biomedicine because they can be simultaneously functionalized and guided using a magnetic field. Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles precoated with oleic acid and bearing novel antimicrobial N-heterocyclic choline analogues, namely O-, N- and O,N-bis-undecyl-substituted N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolinium derivatives, have been obtained as potential biomedical agents for drug delivery and antimicrobial therapy. Structural and size determinations for the novel synthesized magnetic nanosystems were carried out based upon magnetogranulometry, dynamic light-scattering measurements and X-ray diffraction analysis. The most expecte…
Isoëtes todaroana (Isoëtaceae, Lycopodiophyta), a New Species from Sicily (Italy)
2009
Isoetes todaroana, a new species from western Sicily (Italy), is described. Morpholog- ical, anatomical and ecological characters are given. The main differential characters are the presence of only two leaf air chambers, rather than four as in all other known species of the genus, and the shape of the scales, which have two lateral rounded lobes and one central spine-like lobe, together with its peculiar calcophilic habitat. So far, the species is known from a single locality.
Effect of titanium (IV) application on some enzymatic activities in several developing stages of red pepper plants
1994
Abstract The effect of two titanium (IV) compounds, titanium ascorbate and titanium chloride, on some enzymatic activities, such as catalase, peroxidase, lipoxygenase and nitrate reductase in seeds, embryos, and seedlings and adult plants of red pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), was studied. A stimulatory effect of titanium was observed for every iron‐depending enzyme studied at all developing stages as well as for nitrate reductase but only for whole plants. This occurs because Ti+3/Ti+4 catalizes the activity of iron and enhances iron‐dependent enzymes.
Ympäristöestrogeeniseoksen yhteisvaikutus 20dpfZF-seeprakalan vitellogeniinigeenin ilmentymiseen
2011
Ihmisten toimesta ympäristöön joutuvien vierasaineiden vaikutukset hormonitoimintaan ovat viime vuosina herättäneet paljon keskustelua. Yksi alan tutkituimmista aihealueista on estrogeenin kaltaisesti vaikuttavien aineiden eli ympäristöestrogeenien aiheuttamat lisääntymis- ja kehityshäiriöt. Estrogeenisiä vaikutuksia voidaan tutkia monella tapaa, alkaen solutason vasteista populaatiokehitykseen. Yksi paljon käytetty molekyylimarkkeri on kalojen vitellogeniinitason mittaus. Vaikka normaalioloissa vain naaraat tuottavat vitellogeniiniä, estrogeenialtistuksen vaikutuksesta myös koiraat ja nuoret yksilöt voivat sitä tuottaa. Tässä opinnäytetyössä tutkittiin kolmen ympäristöestrogeenin, bisfenol…
Phantoms Used for Mapping of Skin Chromophores by Multi-spectral Imaging
2014
Skin phantoms can be used for better understanding of diffuse reflectance imaging of skin. In this study, skin phantoms of hemoglobin, bilirubin and melanin were developed and studied for possibilities to calibrate chromophore concentration values.
Glove perforation during oral surgical procedures
2006
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of glove perforation among undergraduates and residents performing maxillofacial surgery and identify procedures associated with the perforations. Study Design: For this purpose, 200 pairs of surgical gloves were used. For inspecting the perforations, the gloves were filled with water, at least 500 ml. Results: Sixteen gloves (8%) were perforated, 8 (4%) by residents and 8 (4%) by undergraduate students. Only the residents noticed that 2 gloves (1%) were perforated and identified the object causing the perforation. The left hand was the more affected with 9 perforations (4.5%). The finger pulp was the region most affected with …
Utilización del manguito de isquemia en artroplastia total de rodilla. Práctica habitual en la Comunidad Valenciana y revisión bibliográfica
2019
The aim of this study is to know which is the routine clinical practice related to the use of ischemic tourniquet in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in hospitals of Comunidad Valenciana and to make a Literature review. We performed a retrospective, descriptive, observational study based on questioner surveys of specialists in Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology in 9 public Hospitals of Comunidad Valenciana 96, 9% of surgeons preferred the use of ischemic tourniquet in protheses implantation, versus 3,1% who did not. Among those who used Ischemic tourniquet, 57,8% preferred to inflate it before establishing a sterile field versus 39,1% who inflated the tourniquet once the sterile field was est…
