La publicación del informe PISA 2006 ha dado lugar a las mismas abundantes críticas y lamentaciones acerca del fracaso de nuestro sistema educativo -y, en particular, de la educación científica- que provocó el informe de 2003, a causa del lugar que ocupa España en el conjunto de países de la OCDE. No vamos a repetir aquí los argumentos que invalidan estas injustificadas lecturas de los resultados presentados en el informe: como mostrábamos en otro trabajo (Gil Pérez y Vilches, 2006), tienen la misma validez que sostener, cuando las notas medias de dos grupos de estudiantes en una determinada materia son, respectivamente, 5.5 y 4.9, que el primero ha funcionado mucho mejor que el segundo.
The Influence of All-Night Exposure to Pulsed Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields on Human Sleep. Der Einfluss kontinuierlicher nachtlicher Exposit…
2005
Question of the study The widespread use of mobile telephones has led to public discussion about the putative health hazards as well as scientific interest in the interactions of pulsed, high-frequency electromagnetic fields with physiological systems. This article presents a survey of three consecutive studies carried out by a research group at the University of Mainz.
Income, Sex, Pills and Relationships: An Empirical Study for Argentina
2016
We use 28 years of Argentina’s life satisfaction (LS) and happiness (HA) data to test the Easterlin Paradox and find out the actual determinants of happiness. Argentineans are happier now than in 1984, and the City of Buenos Aires leads in present rankings of happiness in Argentina. In the cross-section analysis, LS correlates with the satisfaction about the economic situation of households, but the satisfaction with family and time spent with loved ones have a higher explanatory power. When it comes to HA, high social class members do not always buy a ticket, but low class makes people sadder. Nontraditional variables – pills for mental stress and sex – were also studied.
Paradoxical social representations of linky smart meters and privacy paradox
2021
Consumer participation to electricity consumption reduction (ECR) has become a major challenge in a context of Energy Transition. The Linky french Smart Meter, which use contributes to ECR, is confronted to many controversies reflecting the social legitimation at stake which underlies its evaluation. This article proposes to study privacy paradox regarding Linky Smart Meter use, mobilizing the conceptual background of consumer psychological empowerment. In that aim, a social representation analysis was conducted involving 271 respondents. Results highlight, on one hand, a privacy paradox involving 3 out of the 4 dimensions of psychological empowerment, and on another hand, the presence of m…
Co-evolution between trust in teachers and higher education toward digitally-rich learning environments
2017
Based on a powerful notion that the quality of higher education is crucial for innovation in digital economy and that such quality is subject to a conception of trust in teachers to deliver good education and advancement of information and communication technology (ICT), the dynamism of co-evolution between them was analyzed. Using a unique dataset representing the above system consisting of the rate of trust in teachers providing good education in the context of quality of education and their social status, of the level of higher education and the state of ICT advancement toward digitally-rich learning environments, an empirical numerical analysis of 20 countries was attempted. These count…
Solving Strategic Paradoxes through Organizational Ambidexterity - A Foray into the Literature -
2016
Abstract In a world of unprecedented (diachronic and synchronic) complexities like ours, firms are forced to deal with an increasing number of organizational paradoxes that challenge their strategic choices. Under these circumstances, ambidexterity could become a (dynamic) core competence for firms, making the ambidextrous organization an imperative for businesses more than ever before. The paper aims to explore, based on an integrative approach, the most relevant literature on the interdependencies between the two topics (strategic paradoxes and organizational ambidexterity), in order to identify the most important thesis, arguments and solutions that support the ambidextrous organization,…
On the power and the systematic biases of the detection of chromosomal inversions by paired-end genome sequencing
2013
One of the most used techniques to study structural variation at a genome level is paired-end mapping (PEM). PEM has the advantage of being able to detect balanced events, such as inversions and translocations. However, inversions are still quite difficult to predict reliably, especially from high-throughput sequencing data. We simulated realistic PEM experiments with different combinations of read and library fragment lengths, including sequencing errors and meaningful base-qualities, to quantify and track down the origin of false positives and negatives along sequencing, mapping, and downstream analysis. We show that PEM is very appropriate to detect a wide range of inversions, even with …

Efficacités et fonctions de la convention collective de travail: étude comparative de l'intervention légale en Espagne et en France
2013
Este trabajo persigue como objetivo general realizar una aproximación global a los sistemas de negociación colectiva español y francés, con el fin de difundir en ambos países, mediante un estudio comparativo, sus rasgos característicos. Uno de ellos corresponde al papel central de la ley para regular dichos sistemas. Se trata, pues, de proceder al análisis de la intervención legal, en España y en Francia, en materia de negociación colectiva. Dos ideas guían el trabajo. Por una parte, es preciso elevar al nivel constitucional las discusiones para delimitar el marco de actuación de la ley. Por otra parte, se detecta una tendencia común de las políticas legales que desemboca en el fomento de l…
