The determinants of social sustainability in work integration social enterprises: the effect of entrepreneurship
2021
Work integration social enterprises (WISEs) exist to fight poverty and social exclusion. They offer support and guidance to those at risk of exclusion to help these individuals join the labour market. This study examines the relationship between social enterprises (specifically, work integration social enterprises) and their social impact, considered here in the form of social sustainability. This article presents the results of empirical analysis of 62 Spanish work integration social enterprises using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. The article focuses on the entrepreneurial characteristics of the companies’ founders and managers as drivers of social value creation. Specificall…
Ecological stoichiometry: a link between developmental speed and physiological stress in an omnivorous insect
2019
The elemental composition of organisms is a part of a suite of functional traits that may adaptively respond to fluctuating selection pressures. Life history theory predicts that predation risk and resource limitations impose selection pressures on organisms’ developmental time and are further associated with variability in energetic and behavioral traits. Between-individual differences in developmental speed, behaviors and physiology have been explained using the pace-of-life syndrome (POLS) hypothesis. However, how an organism’s developmental speed is linked with elemental body composition, metabolism and behavior is not well understood. We compared elemental body composition, latency to …
Open Access E-Journals : past, present, and future
2015
Comienza este artículo trazando el origen y desarrollo de las revistas electrónicas en acceso abierto, cómo surgieron, se fueron definiendo y a qué necesidades respondieron. Se explica cómo se produjo la transición del mundo impreso al electrónico en el diseño y concepción de las revistas; y se señala exactamente cuando se produjo el despegue de este tipo de publicaciones. Para describir la situación actual de las revistas se recurre a los datos proporcionados por el directorio de publicaciones electrónicas Ulrichs y al directorio de revistas en acceso abierto DOAJ. Se calcula el número de revistas circulantes y se ofrece un retrato del perfil editorial de las revistas a día de hoy. Se desc…
Essay on the integration of interactions in the treatment effect evaluation : the contribution of spatial econometrics methods
2015
This thesis focuses on the integration of interactions in the estimation of the public policy’s effect. Indeed, the estimation standard methods usually rely on strong assumptions that exclude partially or completely the interaction effect both in the selection process of beneficiaries and in the performance of the policy. However, the validity of these assumptions is questionable, particularly in the context of a non-experimental policy because an individual according as it is the beneficiary or not the policy, is not isolated: he interacts with his neighborhood. Thus, the estimated effect of the policy by traditional methods is likely to be biased (underestimation or overestimation) theref…
A Multisite Preregistered Paradigmatic Test of the Ego-Depletion Effect
2021
We conducted a preregistered multilaboratory project ( k = 36; N = 3,531) to assess the size and robustness of ego-depletion effects using a novel replication method, termed the paradigmatic replication approach. Each laboratory implemented one of two procedures that was intended to manipulate self-control and tested performance on a subsequent measure of self-control. Confirmatory tests found a nonsignificant result ( d = 0.06). Confirmatory Bayesian meta-analyses using an informed-prior hypothesis (δ = 0.30, SD = 0.15) found that the data were 4 times more likely under the null than the alternative hypothesis. Hence, preregistered analyses did not find evidence for a depletion effect. Ex…

La calidad periodística en España según la percepción de los periodistas
2015
Este artículo expone los resultados de una investigación sobre la percepción que tienen los periodistas españoles de la calidad periodística, teniendo en cuenta el contexto económico, tecnológico, empresarial, laboral y profesional. Los resultados de una encuesta, en la que participan 363 periodistas españoles con al menos tres años de experiencia en diferentes medios, ponen de manifiesto carencias relativas tanto a la relevancia y diversidad de los temas abordados como al acceso a las fuentes o el tratamiento y verificación de los datos, así como a las condiciones laborales o a los retos derivados de la adaptación a las nuevas tecnologías y a las imposiciones de la acuciante inmediatez.

Influencia de la inteligencia emocional y el apoyo social sobre el bienestar subjetivo: un estudio transcultural España-Ecuador
2021
Marco teórico: la inteligencia emocional es una de las variables psicológicas más estudiadas en la actualidad, así como el apoyo social, que puede actuar como protector de la salud y el bienestar psico-lógico. El objetivo principal del trabajo es estudiar la relación entre la inteligencia emocional y el apoyo social percibido con la felicidad subjetiva y la satisfacción vital en universitarios de dos culturas y con-textos diferentes: España y Ecuador. Método: 760 estudiantes universitarios, incluyendo 379 españoles (83.1% mujeres) y 381 ecua-torianos (76.6% mujeres), completaron las escalas Trait Meta Mood Scale, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, Satisfaction With Life Sca…

Examining five pathways on how self-control is associated with emotion regulation and affective well-being in daily life.
2020
OBJECTIVE Self-control is positively connected to well-being, but less is known about what, on the mechanistic level, explains this association. We hypothesized five pathways how this connection could be explained by emotion regulation, that is, by facilitating (a) strategy effectiveness, (b), adaptive strategy selection, (c) situation selection, (d) strategy variability, or (e) social sharing. METHOD To explore these pathways, we integrated two ambulatory assessment data sets (N = 250 participants, N = 22,796 observations) that included assessments of participants' emotions and their emotion regulation efforts. RESULTS We found that self-control was positively associated with affective wel…
