Teoria integrata del crimine dei potenti di Box
2021
Riflessione su: la teoria integrata del crimine dei potenti di Steven Box (1987) che presenta un modello d’integrazione concettuale «fianco a fianco», che fa riferimento alle principali teorie moderne (anomia/ tensione, legami/controllo, apprendimento sociale, neutralizzazioni, subculture, struttura di opportunità e controllo sociale). Il crimine dei potenti è spiegato come il prodotto dei tentativi che attori formali (come società, aziende, governi, multinazionali, ecc.) attuano nel raggiungimento di obiettivi specifici in contesti altrimenti incerti. Reflection on: Steven Box's (1987) integrated theory of crime of the powerful which presents a model of conceptual integration "side by side…
L'espace de liberté comme mesure synthétique du développement territorial durable
2011
By discussing the concept of development itself, authors propose two synthetic indexes relying on estimation of potential: Development Space Value and Development Space Creation Under the weak hypothesis that any successful development improves future possibilities, changes in potential are a good development measure. In their path, authors show how development space is tied with freedom: a shrink in it results mechanically in indexes fall. So, "sustainable" and "economic" become two sides of same piece rather than enemies. Reliable in simulations, the approach is to be tested in real conditions, to verify full data availability and to secure calculating methods.
Ethical issues in the teaching and learning of health topics in schools: the conceptions of teacher trainees
2013
There has been little research on how teacher trainees can be educated to deal with ethical issues, or on trainees' conceptions of these issues. Using written essays, this study aimed to examine health education teacher trainees' (N = 35) conceptions of the ethical aspects involved in teaching and learning health topics. A qualitative content analysis revealed three broad themes: health education as an ethical subject, the teacher as an ethical professional, and spaces for learning. The results reflect the content areas focused on in health education teacher training, and provide new insights into topics that can be useful in developing teacher training. peerReviewed
The Work of Hermeneutic Phenomenology
2020
This paper is an illustration of the application of a hermeneutic phenomenological study. The theory of meaning and interpretation, drawing on philosophical hermeneutics and the work of Gadamer and Heidegger, and its alignment with phenomenological thought is presented. The paper explains and aims to make visible how key concerns in relation to the fusion of horizons, hermeneutic understanding, hermeneutic circle and hermeneutic phenomenological attitude were implemented. The purpose is to provide practical guidance and illustrate a fully worked up example of hermeneutic phenomenological work as research praxis. This present paper makes a case that hermeneutic phenomenological work is deta…
The sculpture of tick-borne diseases media coverage in the United States and China
2017
Media’s ability to enhance the salience of certain topics for the public and affect governmental policy-setting processes is widely recognized. This is particularly evident in health communication, where newspapers are one of the most important sources of health information. This study compares media depictions of tick-borne disease in the United States and China, attempting to enhance newspaper influence in health information delivery in both countries. The United States and China are experiencing an increase in tick-borne diseases and have vastly different media landscapes. To investigate US and Chinese newspaper coverage of tick-borne diseases, a content analysis was conducted of four …
DEVELOPMENT OF A TEST FOR EVALUATING THE CONCEPTUAL KNOWLEDGE OF CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS AND ITS APPLICATION TO SPANI…
2014
This article outlines a procedure that was used to develop a written test for evaluating the conceptual knowledge of chemical equilibrium constant among university students. The concepts in the subject matter were carefully defined through propositional statements. Students' understanding of the topic was determined through interviews. These data were used to produce nine multiple choice questions. Each question was designed to identify misconceptions related to the chemical equilibrium constant. The test was evaluated by foure associate professors and was administred to a total of 196 spanish university students. This test has a Cronbach's alpha reliability of 0.63 and its content validity…
La falta de reproducibilitat de la investigació: L'estadística com a legitimació del resultat
2014
La investigació científica es legitima mitjançant la replicació dels seus resultats, però els esforços per replicar afirmacions enganyoses exhaureixen el finançament. Ens centrarem en una d’aquestes errades: els resultats de proves estadístiques que ofereixen falsos positius a causa de l’atzar. Els mètodes estadístics clàssics confien en un p-valor per a ponderar les proves enfront d’una hipòtesi nul·la, però les proves d’hipòtesis bayesianes ofereixen resultats més fàcils de comprendre, sempre que hom puga especificar distribucions a priori per a la hipòtesi alternativa. Descriurem noves proves, les UMPBT, tests bayesians que ofereixen una especificació per defecte de les alternatives a pr…
Potential myocardial iron content evaluation by magnetic resonance imaging in thalassemia major patients treated with Deferoxamine or Deferiprone dur…
2003
The purpose of this study was to evaluate if the variations of heart magnetic resonance imaging in beta-thalassemia major patients treated with Deferoxamine B mesylate (DF) or Deferiprone (L1) chelation therapy is a useful tool of the indirect myocardial iron content determination. For this reason, a prospective study was carried out. Seventy-two consecutive patients with beta-thalassemia major (35 treated with DF and 37 with L1) were studied. The main outcome results were laboratory parameters including determination of the liver iron concentration (LIC) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart and liver. The heart to muscle signal intensity ratios (HSIRs) were significantly incre…
La destrucció del patrimoni artístic i la seua reconstrucció. Un exercici de microhistòria: el cas de Llíria i la Confraria de la Sang (1936-1949)
2020
The problem of artistic destruction and its reconstruction has been little studied. Using a microhistorical analysis method, we study the town of Lliria (Valencia) and its brotherhood of ?La Sang de Jesucrist? (had a great heritage from the 16th to the 19th centuries), and we also analyze how and why this destruction and reconstruction was generated during the context of the civil war. We use and combine different sources (public of the ?Causa General? and private of the ?Minute Books?) for this research, with the intention of specifying the analysis of this complex process. We also explain social and artistic relationships of these two processes, that help us study the workshops of the mos…
La aplicación del derecho extranjero en iberoamérica y la unión europea: : paralelismos desde la diferencia
2021
The potential application of a foreign law constitutes the logical outcome of any Private International Law? system. However, and despite its relevance, this issue lacks a common answer in the EU. In contrast to this, the analysis of the solutions drafted in Latin America as regards this issue grants a novel dimension to the European situation on this issue as well as highlights a meritorious reality that shows a high and very relevant degree of harmonization
