Global Cognitive Functioning versus Controlled Functioning throughout the Stages of Development
2020
According to the All or None Hypothesis (Diamond, 2009), the cognitive system can operate in a global manner that is not very discriminate or in a more discriminate mode that demands greater precision, control, and cognitive effort. There are five corollaries to this hypothesis that describe, in an operative way, the conditions under which the controlled mode of functioning in the cognitive domain can be activated and thus tested. Given the impact this theory has generated and the absence of studies analyzing the corollaries in a collective and systematic way at different stages of development, this study was proposed, first of all, to test three of these corollaries in children, adolescent…
Crystal structure ofcis-1-phenyl-8-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)dibenzo[1,2-c:2,1-h]-2,14-dioxa-8-aza-1-borabicyclo[4.4.0]deca-3,8-diene
2017
The present work describes the synthesis and crystal structure of the new B-phenyloxazaborocine, C26H23BN2O2. The title compound adopts a zwitterionic form with a significant intramolecular N→B dative bond and intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions connecting molecules parallel to the b axis.
Three phenanthroline-metal complexes with topologically similar but geometrically different conformations.
2016
Two out of the three very similar complexes described present twofold symmetry but not the third one, probably by way of a strong intramolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond disrupting the symmetry, a fact which is analysed in detail.
Propedeutics and practice of research in Methodology programs of undergraduate Sociology degrees in Argentina and other Latin American countries
2020
Los programas de materias de Metodología de la Investigación en carreras universitarias de grado en Sociología, principalmente de Argentina (2018), constituyen el objeto de análisis del presente artículo. Partiendo de interrogantes en torno a los modos en que se enseña a investigar, se escogió analizar programas en tanto documentos que cristalizan y brindan indicios de prácticas y discursos formativos. Si bien los programas distan de las prácticas en las aulas, ofrecen información significativa y permiten ampliar la muestra respecto a la observación in situ. Los resultados del relevamiento se organizaron en dos ejes: las variantes en las propuestas de enseñanza y las maneras de entender las…

Propiedades psicométricas del CEVEAPEU: Validación en población peruana
2016
Researchers’ interest in the learning process at university context, and in its evaluation, has increased in recent years. Great deals of papers have studied this process and the role that learning strategies play in it and how to measure them in an objective and reliable way. Following this trend, the aim of this study is to validate the Cuestionario de Evaluación de las Estrategias de Aprendizaje de los Estudiantes Universitarios (CEVEAPEU) in a sample of 238 Peruvian university students. Results examined factorial validity, reliability and validity evidence of the questionnaire. In order to test factorial validity of the affective, support and control strategies and information process s…
Comparative analysis of corporate tax burden in the euro area during 2000-2013
2016
Traditionally, some countries have been using the Corporate Income Tax as a way of, starting from relatively high nominal tax rates, encourage certain economic activities through incentives or bonuses that allow considerably reduce actual business taxation. In contrast, other member states have chosen to directly lower the tax rate, regardless of other incentives, thus bringing the nominal taxation to effective.This research aims to analyze the discrepancies in the taxation of corporate income tax between different Eurozone countries for the period 2000-2013, noting the differences between the statutory (STR) and effective tax rates (ETR) of listed companies. In this way, this work locates …
El cuerpo materno en la red: entre el orden de lo ?deseable? y el de lo real
2019
El estilo de vida fitness se realiza en, y a través de, un entramado subjetivo y de poder en el que circulan y se ensamblan dispositivos empresariales, terapéuticos, sanitarios y de espectacularización de los cuerpos, tendientes a inscribir la vida de la población en las tramas conflictivas de un capitalismo heterosexista, neoliberal e informacional. En dicho marco, la temporalidad, metamorfosis y plasticidad del cuerpo materno irrumpe como problema y objeto de intervención de tecnologías diversas orientadas a ajustar su tamaño, forma y devenir a los parámetros de la vida activa y saludable. En escenarios digitales, dicha tensión se materializa, por un lado, a través de dispositivos visuale…
Cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters: X-ray scaling relations and their evolution
2018
We analyse cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters to study the X-ray scaling relations between total masses and observable quantities such as X-ray luminosity, gas mass, X-ray temperature, and $Y_{X}$. Three sets of simulations are performed with an improved version of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics GADGET-3 code. These consider the following: non-radiative gas, star formation and stellar feedback, and the addition of feedback by active galactic nuclei (AGN). We select clusters with $M_{500} > 10^{14} M_{\odot} E(z)^{-1}$, mimicking the typical selection of Sunyaev-Zeldovich samples. This permits to have a mass range large enough to enable robust fitting of the r…
Five insights from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
2020
The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 provides a rules-based synthesis of the available evidence on levels and trends in health outcomes, a diverse set of risk factors, and health system responses. GBD 2019 covered 204 countries and territories, as well as first administrative level disaggregations for 22 countries, from 1990 to 2019. Because GBD is highly standardised and comprehensive, spanning both fatal and non-fatal outcomes, and uses a mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive list of hierarchical disease and injury causes, the study provides a powerful basis for detailed and broad insights on global health trends and emerging challenges. GBD …
