The lived experience of aging in community-dwelling elders in Valencia, Spain: a phenomenological study.
1995
The purpose of this qualitative research study was to explore the lived experience of aging in community-dwelling elders in Valencia, Spain. A bilingual, bicultural endeavor, this research was a collaborative project conducted by nurse educators in New York City and Valencia. Parse's theory of human becoming guided the research, and van Kaam's phenomenological method of analysis was used to identify common elements and major themes of experience. Findings revealed the meaning of aging to be confirming triumphs through the forceful enlivening of bridled potency. These findings were conceptually consistent with Parse's major themes of meaning, rhythmicity, and cotranscendence. Implications f…
Return Visits: The European Background of Transcultural Life Writing
2013
In this article I read autobiographies by East Europeans who immigrated to Canada in connection with the Second World War as examples of transcultural life writing. My focus on the representation of return visits of these loyal Canadian citizens to their country of origin after 1989 reveals the underlying intention of relating the experience of life in a multicultural democratic society to the emergence of a new political consciousness in Eastern Europe. In my analysis I distinguish four types of concerns which try to bridge the past of their childhood experiences with the formation of a transcultural life in the 21st century: 1. Anna Porter’s return visit to Hungary for family reunion and …
Factorial validity of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-HSS) among Spanish professionals
2005
OBJECTIVE: To assess the factorial validity and internal consistency of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-HSS). METHODS: In a sample consisting of 705 Spanish professionals from diverse occupational sectors (health, education, police and so one), seven plausible factorial models hypothesized were compared using LISREL 8. RESULTS: The four-factor oblique solution and the three-factor oblique solution showed the best and similar fit. Deletion of Item 12 and Item 16, taking into consideration the suggestions in the manual, improved the goodness of fit for both models. The four-factor oblique model suggests that, in addition to Emotional Exhaustion (EE) and Depersonalization (DP), Personal Acc…
Kā robežas ietekmē NATO ģimenes locekļu integrāciju uzņēmējvalstī
2020
Bakalaura darbā es koncentrējos gan uz fiziskajām, gan abstraktajām NATO robežām, kas ir ietekmējošie faktori NATO ģimeņu integrācijas procesā uzņemšanas valstī un organizācijas dalībnieku identitātes veidošanā. Es skatu kā abstraktās robežas, piemēram, valodas robežas, tiek konstruētas un uzturētas militārajā kontekstā. Analizējot dalībnieku intervijas, es uzsveru cilvēku pieredzes aspektus gan NATO robežās, gan ārpus tām, dalībnieku pašidentifikāciju, kā arī kultūru apvienošanos.
Impacto emocional y resiliencia en adolescentes de España y Ecuador durante la COVID-19: estudio transcultural

Se evaluaron mediante la Escala de Depresión, Ansiedad y Estrés y la Escala de Resiliencia. Realizamos análisis descriptivos, pruebas t para muestras independientes, cálculo del tamaño del …

Confronting the Medusa with Athena’s Shield: Empowering Social Workers with a Transformative Role in the Migration Field
2022
Along with existing challenges, there are new ones leading social workers to become involved in increasingly international intervention processes. This has led to the development of the concept of International Social Work (Hugman, Moosa-Mitha & Moyo, 2010; Cox & Pawar, 2006; Dominelli, 2010), which provides a good opportunity to both depart from old patterns of administering aid (Healy 2008) and to embody a perception of itself as a transformative actor (Wintergerst 2017, p. 236). Assuming that it is true that the presence of different cultures acts as a catalyst in the processes of change in society, then this is equally valid for the development of this profession (Di Rosa, 2021)…

Une identité transculturelle: la subjectivité néolibérale de masse
2018
Il contributo intende descrivere i caratteri emergenti della soggettività neoliberista di massa, quale forma dell'identità trans-culturale globalizzata, apparsa con la messa in crisi delle grandi narrazioni ideologicico-metafisiche negli ultimi decenni del secolo scorso, che sembra strutturare un modo massificato di essere, pensare e agire del soggetto, caratterizzando i suoi ideali e desideri, le relazioni tra singoli e gruppi, tra uomo e ambiente naturale. Questa forma della soggettività viene individuata a partire da alcuni riferimenti storici, culturali e antropologici, quali: i paradigmi dello scambio (il dono, il mercato e il ruolo della legge/stato), l'analisi del significato origina…
