Combining the COM-B Model and Habit Theory to Leverage Understanding of Adolescents’ Tooth-Brushing Behavior
2022
Although brushing teeth twice a day is not difficult, a surprisingly large proportion of adolescents do not behave accordingly. This paper brings together the COM-B model and the habit formation theory in order to create a basis for a more comprehensive, customer-oriented, theory-based understanding of the issue. A total of nine focus group interviews were conducted among adolescents to further understand underlying aspects and develop solutions. In findings, barriers related to adolescents tooth brushing behavior were identified in all areas of COM-B model. Especially the role of automatic motivation was highlighted as in mornings tooth brushing seemed not to have a stable place in daily r…
Correcting ēthos and Purifying the Body. Musical Therapy in Iamblichus’ De vita pythagorica
2015
The tradition relating to the Pythagoreans and music therapy is most widely attested in two Neoplatonic works, Porphyry’s The Life of Pythagoras, and Iamblichus’ On the Pythagorean Way of Life. Although the chronological distance from the early Pythagoreans makes their accounts controversial, they offer interesting evidence on the beneficial effects of music. Iamblichus, whose work will be focused on in this paper, describes the effects of music on health through the notion of catharsis, which he often links with musical ēthos. The latter is not in fact attested before Plato, but Iamblichus, presenting Pythagoras in Platonic terms, emphasizes the importance he gives to the improvement of th…

La incidencia del salario mínimo interprofesional en sectores de bajos salarios
2012
El salario mínimo es un tema que ha vuelto a cobrar actualidad. La mayoría de los análisis que se realizan al respecto se centran en determinar si su nivel tiene algún tipo de incidencia sobre el empleo. No obstante, son escasos los trabajos que abordan si efectivamente el salario mínimo cumple con su objetivo básico: mejorar las rentas de los perceptores de bajos salarios. En este trabajo abordamos precisamente esta cuestión. Para ello se analiza la evolución de los salarios en la negociación colectiva en tres sectores considerados de bajos salarios (comercio al por menor, hostelería y limpieza de locales y edificios), centrándonos en los puestos inferiores de la escala salarial. The minim…
Traditional Chinese herbal medicine at the forefront battle against COVID-19: Clinical experience and scientific basis.
2020
Abstract Background Throughout the 5000-year history of China, more than 300 epidemics were recorded. Traditional Chinese herbal medicine (TCM) has been used effectively to combat each of these epidemics’ infections, and saved many lives. To date, there are hundreds of herbal TCM formulae developed for the purpose of prevention and treatment during epidemic infections. When COVID-19 ravaged the Wuhan district in China in early January 2020, without a deep understanding about the nature of COVID-19, patients admitted to the TCM Hospital in Wuhan were immediately treated with TCM and reported later with >90% efficacy. Approach We conducted conduct a systematic survey of various TCM herbal pre…

From Eunomia to Paideia: The Educating Nature of Law
2020
Education and Law are two of the institutions which most directly influence the configuration of the individual and of society. Furthermore, there is a close relationship between them in that each determines the development of the other. From their very beginnings, political and legal philosophy have asked what is Law, what is education and what should the relationship between them be. This chapter deals with the relationship between Law and education from this philosophical-practical perspective. It begins by illustrating the notable similarities between both and then goes on to address two questions: (1) whether Law should educate citizens in moral virtues; and (2) if the education of cit…

Līdz ar to teorētiskajā daļā tiks aplūkoti vairāku autoru izvirzītie kritēriji, kas iespaido NVO ietekmi uz lēmumu pieņemšanu. Empīriskajā daļā autors aplūkoja NVO atbildes uz aptaujā izvirzītajiem jautājumiem, kas veidoti, balstoties uz teorētiskajā daļā izvirzītajiem kritērijiem. Tāpat tika analizēti konkrēti lēmuma ietekmēšanas un politikas veidošanas gadījumi, veicot intervijas ar NVO un lēmumu pieņēmēju pārstāvjiem. Pēc autora domām, šis pētījums sniegs ieskatu par to, kādi kritēriji iespaido NVO izredzes ietekmēt lēmumu…
The Pythagoreans and the Therapeutic Effects of the Paean between Religion, Paideia and Politics
2016
The interest of the Early Pythagoreans in musical speculation appears in literary sources as strictly linked with religion and education. The use of paeans for healing and calming both rage and anger among the Pythagoreans (see for instance Iamblichus, De vita pythagorica 110; Porphyrius, Vita Pythagorae 30) shows that catharsis was meant within such groups as a “purification” from every kind of excess in which religion, medicine and ethics were blended together in order to provide a harmonious order within the individuals. Music and musical education in Pythagorean communities had also a “political” role, since they were intended to foster social order.
