Environmental effects on the covariation among pace-of-life traits
2019
Pace‐of‐life syndromes (POLSs) are suites of life‐history, physiological and behavioural traits that arise due to trade‐offs between allocation to current and future reproduction. Traits generally show covariation that can arise from genetic and environmental influences on phenotypes and constrain the independent evolution of traits, resulting in fitness consequences and impacts on population dynamics. The notion that correlations among traits may vary among populations along environmental gradients suggests an important role for the environment in shaping and maintaining POLSs. However, no synthesis has been attempted of the myriad ways in which environmental factors should influence POLSs…
Diversification in evolutionary arenas - assessment and synthesis
2019
Abstract Understanding how and why rates of evolutionary diversification vary is a central issue in evolutionary biology and ecology. The concept of adaptive radiation has attracted much interest, but is metaphorical and verbal in nature, making it difficult to quantitatively compare different evolutionary lineages or geographic regions. In addition, the causes of evolutionary stasis are relatively neglected. Here we review the central concepts in the evolutionary diversification literature and bring these together by proposing a general framework for estimating rates of diversification and quantifying their underlying dynamics, which can be applied across clades and regions and across spat…
Influence of the sex reassignment on the subjective well-being of transgender men – results of the pilot study and discussion about future research
2017
This pilot study was aimed at verifying scientific reports on the good functioning of transgender people. On this basis, it was attempted to compare the subjective well-being of transgender men with heterosexual, homosexual and bisexual cisgender men. This study tried to verify the role of hormone therapy and surgical gender correction (sex reassignment surgery) as potential predictors of the subjective well-being of transgender men. Cisgender heterosexual men showed significantly higher subjective well-being in relation to members of the LGBTQ community (transgender men, homosexual and bisexual cisgender men). Sexual orientation of transgender men did not differentiate their subjective wel…
Wpływ korekty płci na poczucie jakości życia mężczyzn transpłciowych – wyniki badania pilotażowego oraz przyczynek do dalszych badań
2017
Badanie pilotażowe miało na celu weryfikację doniesień naukowych mówiących o dobrym funkcjonowaniu osób transpłciowych. Na tej podstawie starano się porównać poczucie jakości życia mężczyzn transpłciowych z cispłciowymi mężczyznami heteroseksualnymi, homoseksualnymi i biseksualnymi a także zweryfikować role terapii hormonalnej i operacyjnej korekty płci jako potencjalnych predyktorów poczucia jakości życia mężczyzn transpłciowych. Cispłciowi mężczyźni heteroseksualni wykazywali się istotnie wyższym poczuciem jakości życia w stosunku do członków społeczności LGBTQ (mężczyzn transpłciowych, cispłciowych męż - czyzn homoseksualnych i biseksualnych). Orientacja seksualna mężczyzn transpłciowych…

“De la mà de un florentí” y “De mestre Marçal”. Los dibujos del pintor valenciano Joan Moreno (1382-1448) y el cuaderno de los Uffizi
2020
A partir de la localización del testamento, inventario de bienes y almonedas posteriores tras el fallecimiento del pintor Joan Moreno en la ciudad de Valencia en 1448, se analiza la importancia del dibujo en los talleres del gótico internacional. La mención específica de dibujos del alemán Marçal de Sas (†1410) y de un florentino que podría ser Gherardo Starnina (c. 1354-1409-13) ofrece la posibilidad de analizar esta documentación en relación con el cuaderno de dibujos de los Uffizi (inv. 2264F-2281F, 18304F-18306F, 18324). Un repertorio de dibujos que se considera realizado en torno a los años 1400 en la ciudad de Valencia y que responde precisamente a las dos corrientes más importantes s…
Social accounting and its contribution to society
2013
With the development of the society and its economic system, a need has emerged to develop accounting as well. The increasing role of social accounting, which keeps records of for-profit, non-profit, and governmental organisations, is associated with the complexity of the environment in which businesses and organisations are operating and presenting reports about their social, ethical, and environmental aspects. Organisations are subject to greater transparency, and many stakeholders are interested in and concerned about the performance of organisations within the context that is not reflected, to a satisfactory extent, in traditional accounting. Traditional accounting ensures reporting to …
