Conceptualising Work-Related Moral Suffering : Exploring and Refining the Concept of Moral Distress in the Context of Social Work

2020

In the nursing literature, work-related suffering due to restricted moral agency is commonly considered under the concept of moral distress. This concept has resonated strongly amongst nursing scholars since the 1980s and has recently gained ground amongst social work scholars as well. However, the research on moral distress suffers from inadequate conceptual clarity; this has led to multiple and disparate ways of empirically studying the phenomenon. This article examines the conceptualisations of moral distress applied in the nursing and social work literature and identifies and discusses the challenges and potential problems related to them. The article sheds light on the complex, dynamic…

Sex and sexual ornamentation associated with survival of the cyprinid fish, Rutilus rutilus, under disease stress

2013

By conveying information of disease resistance, sexual signals may be used as cues for adaptive mate choice. Here we report observations on survival of laboratory-maintained, wild-collected, sexually mature, ready-to-spawn cyprinid fish, Rutilus rutilus (roach), under accidental epidemic attributed to Flavobacterium psychrophilum, diagnosed using species-specific PCR. The fish were maintained in a single tank. During the 27 days observation period, both the proportion of fish surviving the infection as well as the length-adjusted mean survival time of the fish that died was the highest among the high-ornamented males with large breeding tubercles, intermediary among the low-ornamented males…

Service-learning in physical education teacher education: towards a critical and inclusive perspective

2020

The purpose of this study was to analyse the impact of service-learning (SL) in physical education teacher education students (PETEs). The PETEs (n = 169) completed one of the editions of a SL program carried out between 2015–2018. This program consisted of designing and leading motor game sessions to facilitate the inclusion of 116 children with special educational needs (SEN). The program was based on Kolb’s learning stages to promote reflection and critical thinking. Reflective journals were used as an instrument to gather information from their experiences. These data were analysed qualitatively through a multiphase approach, initial open-coding and axial coding, using NVivo (10) softwa…

Adaptation to stressful environments : invasion success of the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata)

2018

Biological invasions, specifically human-induced dispersals, are one of the major threats to our biodiversity and are predicted to increase. Invasive pests provide an opportunity to study whether adaptation to human-induced environments could promote invasions to other human-induced environments. One major anthropogenic selection pressure is created by pesticides, and pests can be exposed to various pesticides in their native, as well as introduced, ranges. I investigated whether exposure to anthropogenic selection (i.e. insecticides and herbicides) and exposure to multiple anthropogenic stressors selects for higher stress tolerance. I also tested whether parental prolonged diapause or inse…

An experimental approach to oxidative stress effect on sperm motility and DNA fragmentation

2018

En el estudio de la fertilidad masculina en todas las especies animales, la movilidad espermática, junto a la concentración y morfometría son los parámetros principales y más básicos en la evaluación de la calidad de los espermatozoides. La infertilidad masculina habitualmente se asocia con tasas anormales de estos parámetros seminales. Aún teniendo, los espermatozoides tasas adecuadas de todos estos parámetros no se puede garantizar la capacidad de fertilizar y/o desarrollar un cigoto. Por lo tanto, está claro que el examen rutinario del semen y los espermatozoides en la eyaculación no puede evaluar otros parámetros importantes en el proceso de fecundación como es capacitación espermática …

Overexpression of SAMDC1 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana increases expression of defense-related genes as well as resistance to Pseudomonas syringae and…

2014

It has been previously described that elevation of endogenous spermine levels in Arabidopsis could be achieved by transgenic overexpression of S-Adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (SAMDC) or Spermine synthase (SPMS). In both cases, spermine accumulation had an impact on the plant transcriptome, with up-regulation of a set of genes enriched in functional categories involved in defense-related processes against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this work, the response of SAMDC1-overexpressing plants against bacterial and oomycete pathogens has been tested. The expression of several pathogen defense-related genes was induced in these plants as well as in wild type plants exposed to an exogeno…

The Far-Reaching Consequences of Job Insecurity : A Review on Family-Related Outcomes

2017

Job insecurity (JI) appears a fairly stable job stressor in working life today and likely to impair employee well-being. This review article presents the key findings of studies examining the effects of perceived JI on family well-being (e.g., marital/parental role quality, work–family conflict). The results, based on 25 published peer-reviewed studies, suggest an association between JI and impaired family well-being. Thus, JI spills over into family life as proposed in the spillover theory of work–family interface. Furthermore, studies have found some evidence of crossover effects of JI from parents to children: parents’ JI relates to negative outcomes in children. These results support th…

Spriedzes mazināšanas iespējas sporta stundās pusaudžiem

2015

Diplomdarba „Spriedzes mazināšanas iespējas sporta stundā pusaudžiem” mērķis ir noskaidrot kā un ar kādiem paņēmieniem sporta stundās ir iespējams samazināt spriedzi pusaudžiem. Autore darba teorētiskajā daļā apskata spriedzes jēdziena un tā cēloņu aspektus, kā arī profilakses iespējas. Lai vērtīgāk spētu izvēlēties metodes un paņēmienus, kas saistīti ar spriedzes mazināšanas iespējām sporta stundā, autore apskata arī konkrētā vecumposma fiziskās, emocionālās un sociālās īpašības un tām raksturīgākās pazīmes, kas var ietekmēt arī mācību procesu. Empīriskajā daļā autore veic aptaujas metodi, kas palīdz izzināt skolēnu zināšanas un iespējamās kritiskās situācijas sporta stundas laikā, kur pus…
