Meta-Study
2022
Meta-study is a method for analysing the content and the process of knowledge production in a body of qualitative research. Conducting a meta-study involves four steps: (1) meta-data-analysis which involves the study of empirical findings; (2) meta-method which examines the epistemological soundness and rigour of methods; (3) meta-theory which examines the structures, assumptions, and principles underpinning the primary research studies; and (4) meta-synthesis which brings the three steps together and considers the plausibility of existing accounts, what has been neglected, and what new avenues have been opened for advancing knowledge. Qualitative researchers in sport and exercise psycholog…
Las creencias epistemológicas y el sistema de valores de los estudiantes de la Universitat de València en el contexto europeo de la educación superior
2011
La comunicación que se presenta es fruto del proyecto que lleva por título ‘Creencias epistemológicas de los estudiantes’ (Referencia 16/FO/04). Dicho proyecto tenía, como uno de sus objetivos, ver la coherencia entre las creencias epistemológicas y el sistema de valores de estudiantes de la UV con el nuevo contexto educativo universitario. Por una parte, las creencias epistemológicas hacen referencia a las concepciones o pensamientos que las personas sostienen acerca de la naturaleza del conocimiento y el proceso de conocer (Hofer y Pintrich, 1997), lo cual tiene claras repercusiones sobre el rendimiento académico; los valores (Schwartz, 1992 y 2009), por su parte, pueden mediar en la mane…

La segunda operación del intelecto según santo Tomás de Aquino
2013
De acuerdo con la teoría del conocimiento de santo Tomás de Aquino, el juicio se parece a un fin en el proceso intelectivo iniciado por la simple aprehensión. La segunda operación del intelecto es necesaria para conocer la verdad como adecuación “intelletus et rei” y como carácter extramental del objeto conocido con la primera operación, de manera tal que se pueda decir que el juicio es “generador” de las fronteras entre Aristóteles y el “ens ut verum” de Aquino.
Revolutionary Struggle for Existence: Introduction to Four Intriguing Puzzles in Virus Research
2012
Cellular life is immersed into an ocean of viruses. Virosphere forms the shadow of this cell-based tree of life: completely dependent on the tree for existence, yet, the tree is equally unable to escape its ever evolving companion. How important role has the shadow played in the evolution of life? Is it a mere ethereal partner or a constitutive factor? In this chapter four puzzles in virus research are taken under the scope in order to probe some of the intriguing ways by which viruses can help us understand life on Earth. These puzzles consider the origin of genetic information in viruses, viruses as symbiotic partners, the structural diversity of viruses and the role of viruses in the ori…
From ‘intercultural-washing’ to meaningful intercultural education: Revisiting higher education practice
2021
This is the first special issue that JPHE hosts—and could there be a more suitable forum for an issue dedicated to exploring and encouraging a critical dialogue around transformative intercultural communication teaching practices in higher education (HE)? What has led us to engage with the theme of making intercultural education meaningful is a shared observation that there seems to be an increasing disconnect between recent developments in intercultural communication theory and practice. With so much critique published over the years, we are perplexed as to why traditional notions of culture still prevail not only in mainstream intercultural communication research but also in institutional…
First Stages of Adult Students Relationship to Scientific Knowing and Research in the Open University's Web-Based Methodology Course
2016
The adult students who participate in the web-based studies of the open university have in many ways heterogeneous starting points for studying and learning, for example, the educational backgrounds, the acquired work experience, the general academic skills and the objectives of the future can vary considerably. The adult students striving from the different starting points pursue their own individual objectives and the set educational dimensions of the academic education. In the academic adult education, individuality and the adult student's autonomy are emphasized and at the same time, diverse knowledge, skills and understanding are sought after. One key objective of the higher education …
Beyond “liberals” and “conservatives”: Complexity in ideology, moral intuitions, and worldview among Swedish voters
2020
This research investigated the congruence between the ideologies of political parties and the ideological preferences (N = 1515), moral intuitions (N = 1048), and political values and worldviews (N = 1345) of diverse samples of Swedish adults who voted or intended to vote for the parties. Logistic regression analyses yielded support for a series of hypotheses about variations in ideology beyond the left-right division. With respect to social ideology, resistance to change and binding moral intuitions predicted stronger preference for a social democratic (vs. progressive) party on the left and weaker preference for a social liberal (vs. social conservative or liberal-conservative) party on t…
Puuttuvuuden mallintaminen FINRISKI-tutkimuksessa
2017
Puuttuva tieto on ongelma terveystutkimuksissa, koska tutkimukseen osallistujat ja ei-osallistujat usein eroavat toisistaan. Puuttuvuuden mallintaminen on tärkeää, jotta tuloksia pystyttäisiin korjaamaan ja jatkossa ottamaan mallinnettu puuttuvuus paremmin huomioon tutkimusta suunnitellessa. Myös Kansallinen FINRISKI-tutkimus kärsii puuttuvuudesta, sillä tutkimuksen osallistumisprosentti on laskenut jatkuvasti. Tutkimus on Terveyden ja hyvinvoinnin laitoksen väestötutkimussarja, jonka tavoitteena on seurata kansantauteja ja niiden riskitekijöitä Suomessa sekä tarkkailla suomalaisten terveydentilaa. Tässä työssä pyritään mallintamaan Kansallisen FINRISKI-tutkimuksen puuttuvuus tarkastelemall…
Analyse des méthodes d'enseignement des sciences économiques dans le système éducatif Libanais
2009
Teaching economics become part of the Lebanese education system in 2000. The short history of this field is promising because of the nature of the discipline and its position in the education system in Lebanon. Teaching economics in Lebanese schools was not created on its own, but as a part of a project that aims to reform all the programs and the structures of high schools in Lebanon that started long time ago. This reform was based on relevant innovations adopted in France. Since its creation, the new section (ES) was successful in tripling its enrollment over nine years while its success rate continues to fall and decrease to become the lowest within all the other sections and taught dis…
