2005
Zusammenfassung Die modernen verhaltenstherapeutischen Ansatze zur Behandlung von Patienten mit unklaren korperlichen Symptomen haben sich auf der Grundlage der Klassifikationssysteme DSM-IV und ICD-10 entwickelt. Dort sind die somatoformen Storungen als einheitliche Storungsgruppe definiert. Erganzend zur deskriptiven Diagnostik hat die Verhaltenstherapie ein Storungsmodell entwickelt, welches atiologische, auslosende und aufrecht erhaltende Faktoren im Sinne eines Regelkreismodells beschreibt. Die therapeutischen Ziele und Strategien konnen konsequent aus diesem Modell abgeleitet werden. Zentrale Komponenten sind (1) die Motivierung des Patienten fur ein psychotherapeutisches Vorgehen, (2…
THE ROLE OF ACCOUNTABILITY WITHIN A ZERO WASTE STRATEGY: EVIDENCES FROM A SICILIAN SMALL MUNICIPALITY
2017
Building a sustainable city model comprising an integrated waste management system has become an indispensable choice, also in the light of increasingly stringent regulatory constraints. The core point of the paper is the implementation of a zero waste strategy in a small municipality in Sicily. Given that only the unceasing participation of citizens may ensure the persistence over time of such a policy, accountability process works letting citizens approach directly the end-results of their ongoing good practices. By building up a SD model framed by a DPM chart, it is possible to figure out how disclosure of public saving resulting from the decreasing amount of waste piled up in the landfi…
La transparencia y la rendición de cuentas en redes sociales. Un caso de conflictos mineros en Latinoamérica
2021
Diversos estudios muestran un creciente uso del Internet y las redes por parte de grandes empresas para divulgar información social y medioambiental, ampliando la rendición de cuentas y la transparencia. No obstante, aún no existe claridad sobre los pros y contras de dicho proceso. Este trabajo plantea la necesidad de una reinterpretación crítica de la transparencia y la rendición de cuentas sociales y medioambientales a través de las redes sociales. Para ello, retoma algunos argumentos de la perspectiva dialógica de la rendición de cuentas, así como planteamientos del filósofo coreano Byung-Chul Han. Se estudia el caso de la compañía minera Vale, caracterizando la forma en qu…
Health care spending structures in Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia over the years as compared to other EU countries
2018
Abstract After joining the European Union in 2004, the post-communist countries have dramatically changed their structure of expenditure for medical services. The cause of this is legislative and ownership changes in the new economy. The study analyzed the expenditure on medical services in the European Union with a special focus on Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. The European Union countries were divided into clusters using different methods, that is, Ward’s, Two Step and Centroid Clustering. In the paper, the structure and changes in health expenses were presented according to the types of expenditures over the years 2004-2015. Countries were assigned to clusters based on three var…
Human resources practices andintrapreneurial behavior:The influence of gender in this relationship
2020
RESUMEN De cara a dar respuesta a la enorme competitividad del entorno actual, es imprescindible contar con individuos implicados e involucrados en la ejecución de un proceso intra-emprendedor para buscar nuevas oportunidades de negocio. Para fomentar este comportamiento intra- emprendedor en las organizaciones, es necesario adoptar determinadas herramientas, relacionadas con el diseño organizativo y las prácticas de RRHH en la empresa. La función de RRHH se considera fundamental para alentar un comportamiento innovador, proactivo y orientado a la asunción de riesgos, lo que se supone que desembocará en un incremento de los resultados de innovación y una mayor ventaja competitiva de la empr…
On the pyrophytism in the Mediterranean area
2015
Authors briefly present some observations and reflections on the “seeding strategy” of some plant species (Cistus spp., Cistaceae, in particular) in the Mediterranean area in relation to fire: they conclude it does not seem a specific adaptation to wildfires (as suggested in a relevant part of the recent literature), but a generalistic adaptation to open, high energy and variable habitats with aleatory fluctuations. The difference is important both for theoretical and applied aspects, e.g. for the correct management of Cistus species and of other Mediterranean species and habitats. Fire is undoubtedly a major ecological factor in the Mediterranean area. Many botanists have postulated the re…
La promoción de la actividad física en el lugar de trabajo: demanda de actividad física en dos mercados madrileños. (Promotion of physical activity a…
2009
Promotion of physical activity at the worksite is part of the global strategies for health promotion. The introduction of physical activity programs at worksites requires an analysis of the current demand in specific contexts. This study analyzes the demand of physical activity among workers at two markets in Madrid: "Maravillas" and "Las Aguilas". It is hypothesized that in both markets latent demand (people that do not practice physical activity but are wishing to do so) prevails over actual demand (people that already practice physical activity) and absent demand (people that do not practice physical activity and do not wish to do so). Results show that this hypothesis is fulfilled at "M…
Working with People Experiencing Homelessness in Europe
2022
In Europe, the widespread transition from the Traditional Staircase (TS) model to the Housing First (HF) model is transforming the way social service providers work with people experiencing homelessness. This study examined social service providers’ perspectives in both models regarding factors that facilitate or hinder their work. Data were collected through 17 photovoice projects involving 81 social service providers from eight European countries. The results show factors affecting social service providers’ work at three levels: systemic, organizational, and individual. Professionals in TS and HF identified similar topics; however, TS providers discussed more obstacles to work. Implicatio…

Adefovir for lamivudine resistant HBV: More than meets the eye
2007
– In patients with LAM resistance and high levels of HBV-DNA, especially if HBeAg positive, it may be difficult to obtain a strong virological suppression with ADV. – Restrictive criteria are needed to define virological response (HBV-DNA < 10 3 copies/ml or 200 IU/ml). – Early finding of non-response or of suboptimal response after 9–12 months of ADV therapy suggests a high risk of emergence of ADV-resistant strains and should prompt a change of treatment strategy. In patients with cirrhosis, due to the risk of liver failure, treatment changes should be considered even earlier, at 3–6 months.
