Distributed pedagogical leadership and generative dialogue in educational nodes
2012
The article presents practices of distributed pedagogical leadership and generative dialogue as a tool with which management and personnel can better operate in the increasingly turbulent world of education.

Es presenta com s'ha constituït una comunitat social d'investigació (CSI) amb 48 persones majors institucionalitzades des de la responsabilitat social universitària (RSU) i des d'una perspectiva humanista.

Aquesta primera experiència de la CSI aporta observacions sobre els canvis de les dimensions del benestar de Ryff durant el procés d'envelliment dins de l…

Religion, Empathy, and Cooperation: A Case Study in the Promises and Challenges of Modeling and Simulation
2019
The Cognitive Science of Religion (CSR) is developing a sophisticated naturalistic account of religion, grounded in empirical research. However, there are limitations to establishing an empirical basis for theories about religion’s role in human evolution. Computer modeling and simulation offers a way to address this experimental constraint. A case study in this approach was conducted on a key theory within CSR that recently has come under serious challenge: the Supernatural Punishment Hypothesis, which posits religion facilitated the shift from small, homogeneous social units to large, complex societies. It has been proposed that incorporating empathy as a proximate mechanism for cooperati…
Effects of Corporate Social Responsibility perception on consumer satisfaction with the brand
2016
Abstract Using two different studies we assess under what conditions Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) affects consumer satisfaction.

The second study, through an empirical study based on an online survey of consumers, points to a positive relationship between CSR and customer satisfaction. Our findings sugges…
