Predictores cognitivos de la intención de práctica y la percepción de las relaciones en el deporte: análisis de la pasión como mediadora (Cognitive p…

2019

Este estudio analizó el papel de la inteligencia en el juego y la motivación como predictores de la intención de práctica deportiva y las relaciones sociales. Asimismo examina el papel de la motivación autodeterminada y la pasión (armoniosa y obsesiva) como mediadoras de esta relación, incorporando la percepción de conflicto. Participaron 180 jugadores adolescentes de fútbol, baloncesto y balonmano, de ambos géneros (124 chicos y 56 chicas) y de edades comprendidas entre 15 y 19 años (M= 15,9; S= 1,029). Se llevó a cabo un análisis correlacional y análisis SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) de dos modelos estructurales, uno con la pasión armoniosa y otro con la pasión obsesiva. El ajuste de…

Calibrating a microscopic traffic simulation model for roundabouts using genetic algorithms

2018

The paper introduces a methodological approach based on genetic algorithms to calibrate microscopic traffic simulation models. The specific objective is to test an automated procedure utilizing genetic algorithms for assigning the most appropriate values to driver and vehicle parameters in AIMSUN. The genetic algorithm tool in MATLAB® and AIMSUN micro-simulation software were used. A subroutine in Python implemented the automatic interaction of AIMSUN with MATLAB®. Focus was made on two roundabouts selected as case studies. Empirical capacity functions based on summary random-effects estimates of critical headway and follow up headway derived from meta-analysis were used as reference for ca…

Understanding the determinants of volatility clustering in terms of stationary Markovian processes

2016

Abstract Volatility is a key variable in the modeling of financial markets. The most striking feature of volatility is that it is a long-range correlated stochastic variable, i.e. its autocorrelation function decays like a power-law τ − β for large time lags. In the present work we investigate the determinants of such feature, starting from the empirical observation that the exponent β of a certain stock’s volatility is a linear function of the average correlation of such stock’s volatility with all other volatilities. We propose a simple approach consisting in diagonalizing the cross-correlation matrix of volatilities and investigating whether or not the diagonalized volatilities still kee…

Il risveglio dal sogno

2022

«La storia è l’incubo da cui mi voglio svegliare». Queste parole sono pronunciate da Stephen Dedalus, nelle primissime pagine del capolavoro di James Joyce, l’Ulisse. Ci troviamo all’inizio del romanzo quando Dedalus introduce una delle classiche domande che assillano il pensiero filosofico, religioso, letterario e artistico contemporaneo: la storia ha ancora un senso?

Pieri and Projective Geometry

Projective geometry can be described as the geometry of the straightedge, in comparison with Euclid’s geometry of straightedge and compass.

Flavour Separation of Helicity Distributions from Deep Inelastic Muon-Deuteron Scattering

2009

We present a LO evaluation of helicity densities of valence, \Delta u_v+\Delta d_v, non-strange sea, \Delta\bar{u}+\Delta\bar{d}, and strange quarks, \Delta s (assumed to be equal to \Delta\bar{s}). They have been obtained from the inclusive asymmetry A_{3,d} and the semi-inclusive asymmetries A^{\pi+}_{1,d}, A^{\pi-}_{1,d}, A^{K+}_{1,d}, A^{K-}_{1,d} measured in polarised deep inelastic muon-deuteron scattering. The full deuteron statistics of COMPASS (years 2002-2004 and 2006) has been used. The data cover the range Q^2 > 1 (GeV/c)^2 and 0.004<x<0.3. Both non-strange densities are found to be in a good agreement with previous measurements. The distribution of \Delta s(x) is compatible wit…

Differential Effects of Two Contemplative Practice-based Programs for Health Care Professionals

2019

The aim of the study was testing the differential effectiveness of two interventions to improve Majorcan primary care professionals' quality of life: Mindful-Based Stress Reduction Training (MBSRT) and Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT). 50 professionals participated in the study; 81% were women. We evaluated mindfulness, empathy, self-compassion, and professional quality of life. Results showed statistically significant effects of the programs on the improvement of mindfulness, self-compassion, and professional quality of life, and differential effects on two dimensions of mindfulness, acting with awareness and non-reacting to inner experience, and on the dimension of burnout of the pro…

Boosting working memory with accelerated clocks

2021

Our perception of time varies with the degree of cognitive engagement in tasks. The perceived passage of time accelerates while working on demanding tasks, whereas time appears to drag during boring situations. Our experiment aimed at investigating whether this relationship is mutual: Can manipulated announcements of elapsed time systematically affect the attentional resources applied to a cognitive task? We measured behavioral performance and the EEG in a whole report working memory paradigm with six items of different colors that each had to be reported after a short delay period. The 32 participants were informed about the current time after each 20 trials, while the clock was running at…
