Change in body image among depressed adult outpatients after a dance movement therapy group treatment
2018
Abstract This study reports on the body image of depressed psychiatric outpatients, and the impact thereon of a dance movement therapy (DMT) group. Body image is perceived as a tri-partite construct consisting of image-properties, body-self, and body memory. Depressed patients in an outpatient mental health service participated in a DMT group treatment consisting of twelve 90-min long sessions in groups of 4–7 patients. Patients (N = 18) responded to a structured Body Image Assessment (BIA) before and after the treatment. Initially, the depressed patients’ body image was characterized by fragmentation, distortions, and shallowness of body awareness. The DMT group treatment aimed to offer th…
The Effects of Dance Movement Therapy in the Treatment of Depression: A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial in Finland
2020
This multicenter research investigates the effects of dance movement therapy (DMT) on participants diagnosed with depression. In total, 109 persons participated in the study in various locations in Finland. The participants were 39 years old, on average (range = 18–64 years), and most were female (96%). All participants received treatment as usual (TAU). They were randomized into DMT + TAU (n = 52) or TAU only (n = 57). The participants in the DMT + TAU group were offered 20 DMT sessions twice a week for 10 weeks in addition to standard care. The measurement points included pretreatment measurement at the baseline, posttreatment measurement at the end of the intervention, and a follow-up me…

Nanocomposites: Síntesis, caracterización y aplicaciones
2018
En las últimas décadas la nanotecnología ha avanzado a una velocidad vertiginosa, haciendo posible la manipulación de las propiedades de los materiales al controlar la materia a niveles nanométricos y logrando metas impensables hasta hace unas pocas décadas. Sin embargo, al tratarse de una ciencia relativamente reciente, queda mucho potencial por explotar. Es indispensable un avance científico multidisciplinar para lograr superar con éxito las actuales limitaciones tecnológicas para que continúe el progreso. Para ello serán indispensables tanto la obtención de nuevos materiales con propiedades manipulables, como el desarrollo de métodos de fabricación que permitan integrar estos materiales …
Statistique de l'efficacité de blindage de matériaux composites pour la 5G: méthodes avancées d'échantillonnage
2020
International audience; Cette proposition présente une méthodologie pour l'estimation statistique du niveau de protection offert par des matériaux composites constitués par des fibres de carbone sur une large gamme de fréquences contenant la bande 5G. La variabilité géométrique des nanostructures de carbone (essentiellement en termes de formes et de dimensions) impose, dans un premier temps, une caractérisation fréquentielle précise de la distribution statistique des propriétés diélectriques des matériaux. La propagation, dans un second temps, des incertitudes précédentes au niveau de l'efficacité de blindage des matériaux apporte des contraintes particulières quand aux méthodes statistique…
Effect of Stacking Sequence and Sodium Bicarbonate Treatment on Quasi-Static and Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Flax/Jute Epoxy-Based Composites
2019
The present paper deals with the investigation of quasi-static and dynamic mechanical response of epoxy-based composites reinforced with flax and/or jute plain weave fabrics. In order to evaluate the influence of the stacking sequence, two monolithic laminates reinforced with flax or jute fibers and two hybrid flax/jute laminates were manufactured through the vacuum infusion technique. Furthermore, an eco-friendly and cost-effective surface treatment based on fiber soaking in a sodium bicarbonate solution was employed to improve the fiber-matrix adhesion. The mechanical characterization (by means of quasi-static flexural, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and Charpy impact tests) allowed …

Some years ago an improved design (the "complete design") was proposed to assess the composite face effect in terms of a congruency effect, defined as the performance difference for congruent and incongruent target to no-target relationships (Cheung et al., 2008). In a recent paper Rossion(2013) questioned whether the congruency effect was a valid hallmark of perceptual integration, because it may contain confounds with face-unspecific interference effects. Here we argue that the complete design is well-balanced and allows one to separate face-specific from face-unspecific effects. We used the complete design for a same/different composite stimulus matching task with face and non-face objec…
De l’avoir lieu à l’être-lieu : parcours dans l’œuvre de Dorothy Cross
2019
Les installations et performances de Dorothy Cross, artiste contemporaine irlandaise, reposent sur un profond respect de la nature et visent à remettre en cause, de manière poétique, l’anthropocentrisme des sociétés occidentales. En mettant en scène le surgissement inattendu d’une bestialité archaïque symbolisée par le requin, la méduse ou les serpents, animaux sauvages mais culturellement marqués, et en s’immergeant dans des milieux et biotopes sauvages, l’artiste opère des renversements spatiaux : l’espace culturel devient un espace ensauvagé. Les procédés d’inscription, d’incrustation ou de projection de motifs évoquant une nature non domestiquée opèrent une symbiose entre l’homme et l’é…
Intraguild interactions between egg parasitoids: window of opportunity and fitness costs for a facultative hyperparasitoid.
2013
We investigated intraguild interactions between two egg parasitoids of Nezara viridula (L.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), Ooencyrtus telenomicida (Vassiliev) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) and Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston) (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae), as the former has the potential to be a facultative hyperparasitoid of the latter. We assessed the suitability of N. viridula eggs for the development of O. telenomicida as a function of egg age when they were unparasitized, or had been attacked by T. basalis at different times prior to exposure to O. telenomicida females. Ooencyrtus telenomicida can exploit healthy N. viridula host eggs up to 5 days of age, just prior to the emergence of N. viri…
