El estilo parental transformacional, el apoyo a la autonomía y sus implicaciones en el burnout de deportistas adolescentes

2019

ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to examine the relationships between transformational parenting, autonomy support displayed by mothers and fathers, and sport burnout in 360 junior soccer players (324 males, range age = 12-18 years). To this end, four steps were followed. Steps 1 and 2 tested the psychometric properties (i.e., factorial structure, internal consistency, and evidence of discriminant validity) of the Spanish version of the Transformational Parenting Questionnaire (TPQ), and steps 3 and 4 examined the proposed relationships. Overall, the Spanish TPQ demonstrated adequate factorial validity and satisfactory internal consistency, representing a valid and reliable adaptation …

Transformational Parenting Style, Autonomy Support, and their Implications for Adolescent Athletes’ Burnout

2019

espanolEl objetivo de esta investigacion fue examinar las relaciones entre el estilo parental transformacional, el apoyo a la autonomia mostrado por madres y padres y el burnout deportivo de 360 jugadores de futbol juvenil (324 hombres, rango de edad = 12-18 anos). Para ello, se siguieron cuatro pasos. Los pasos 1 y 2 pusieron a prueba las propiedades psicometricas (i.e., estructura factorial, consistencia interna y evidencia de validez discriminante) de la version en espanol del Cuestionario de Estilo Parental Transformacional [TPQ, segun sus siglas en ingles] y a traves de los pasos 3 y 4 se examinaron las relaciones propuestas. En general, la version espanola del TPQ espanol demostro una…

Parenté et fraternité monastique dans les miracles posthumes de saint Honorat (Vita sancti Honorati, BHL 3976, fin XIIIe siècle)

2008

Kinship and monastic fraternity in the saint Honoratus miracles at the end of the 13th century (Vita sancti Honorati - BHL 3976) - The legendary Life of saint Honoratus, founding abbot of Lerins and archbishop of Arles (BHL 3976), is a long anonymous narrative of the end of the 13th century. The chapters 30-48 gather together 37 posthumous miracles of the saint. These narratives, close to the contemporary exempla, are rich in moral teachings and display the social relationships representations from the monastic fraternity ideal pattern viewpoint. They point out the insertion of the conjugal unit in a large fabric of horizontal relationships converging to Lerins, and the sexual behavioral co…

Validation of the Five-Factor Self-Concept Questionnaire AF5 in Brazil: Testing factor structure and measurement invariance across language (Brazilia…

2018

Self-concept is widely conceptualized as multidimensional (Shavelson et al., 1976). The Five-Factor Self-Concept Questionnaire (AF5, Garcia and Musitu, 2009) assesses five specific dimensions (i.e., academic, social, emotional, family, and physical). It is a psychometrically sound questionnaire, developed, and normed in Spain, which is widely used with Spanish-speaking samples. The validation of the AF5 in Brazil would expand its potential, and would facilitate cross-cultural research. To validate the Brazilian version of the AF5, the present study apply confirmatory factor analysis and multi-sample invariance analysis across sex (women vs. men), age (11-18 years old), and language (Brazili…

AbstractThe genetic conflict between parents and their offspring is a cornerstone of kin selection theory and the gene-centred view of evolution, but whether it actually occurs in natural systems remains an open question. Conflict operates only if parenting is driven by genetic trade-offs between offspring performance and the parent’s ability to raise additional offspring, and its expression critically depends on the shape of these trade-offs. Here we investigate the occurrence and nature of genetic conflict in an insect with maternal care, the earwig Forficula auricularia. Specifically, we test for a direct response to experimental selection on female future reproduction and correlated res…

La responsabilità della capogruppo per la violazione del duty of care: note a margine di Okpabi v. Royal Dutch Shell Plc

2021

The paper examines a UK-Supreme Court of Justice decision (Okbapi v. Royal Dutch Shell Plc) concerning the liability of a parent company for the abusive con-ducts of its subsidiaries. The Court explores whether and in what circumstances the UK-domiciled parent company of a multi-national group of companies may owe a common law duty of care to individuals who allegedly suffer serious harm as a re-sult of alleged systemic health, safety and environmental failings of one of its overseas subsidiaries as the operator of a joint venture operation. Although the decision focuses on preliminary issues of summary judgment, it pro-vides inputs to a renewed reflection on the duty of care upon the paren…

Mylonites Derived From Parent Rocks Other Than Granites and Gneisses

2009

Most mylonites shown in this atlas are derived from granites and gneisses. This is not a coincidence; the mineralogy of these rocks favours the formation of mylonites because of the contrasting behaviour of quartz and biotite on the one hand (forming matrix) and feldspar and muscovite on the other hand (forming porphyroclasts). Another group of rocks that readily forms mylonites are impure quartzites in which resistant minerals tend to form fish-like structures, again, by strong contrast in rheological behaviour.

Nanostructuring thin Au films on transparent conductive oxide substrates

2013

Fabrication processes of Au nanostructures on indium-tin-oxide (ITO) surface by simple, versatile, and low-cost bottom-up methodologies are investigated in this work. A first methodology exploits the patterning effects induced by nanosecond laser irradiations on thin Au films deposited on ITO surface. We show that after the laser irradiations, the Au film break-up into nanoclusters whose mean size and surface density are tunable by the laser fluence. A second methodology exploits, instead, the patterning effects of standard furnace thermal processes on the Au film deposited on the ITO. We observe, in this case, a peculiar shape evolution from pre-formed nanoclusters during the Au deposition…

Ce:YAG nanoparticles embedded in a PMMA matrix: preparation and characterization

2010

A Ce:YAG-poly(methyl methacrylate) composite was prepared using in situ polymerization by embedding the Ce:YAG nanopowder in a blend of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 2-methacrylic acid (MAA) monomers and activating the photopolymerization using a radical initiator. The obtained nanocomposite was yellow and transparent. Its characterization was performed using transmission electron microscopy, small angle X-ray scattering, (13)C cross-polarization magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Results showed that Ce:YAG nanoparticles are well dispersed in the polymeric matrix whose structure is organized in a lamellar shape. The luminescence properties o…
