Sustainable Working Life in a Swedish Twin Cohort : A Definition Paper with Sample Overview
2021
Background: A unified or consensus definition of “sustainable working life” remains lacking, although studies investigating risk factors for labour market exit are numerous. In this study, we aimed (1) to update the information and to explore a definition of “sustainable working life” via a systematic literature review and (2) to describe the working life trajectories via the prevalence of sickness absence (SA), disability pension (DP), and unemployment in a Swedish twin cohort to provide a sample overview in our Sustainable Working Life-project. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted to explore the studies with the search phrase “sustainable working life” in PubMed, PsycInfo…
Pasaulskatījuma ietekme krāsu izvēlē: vegānu un veģetāriešu vizuālās komunikācijas analīze
2016
Darba nosaukums ir “Pasaulskatījuma ietekme krāsu izvēlē: vegānu un veģetāriešu vizuālā komunikācijas analīze”. Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot veģetāriešu un vegānu vizuālo komunikāciju, pētījumā laikā noskaidrojot veģetāriešu un vegānu grupas krāsu izvēles un visēdāju krāsu izvēles, un atšķirības šo grupu kontekstā. Pētījuma ietvaros noskaidrotas krāsu preferences divās grupās, izmantojot kvantitatīvās pētījumu metodes kā aptauja, kontentanalīze un kvazi –eksperiments. Teorijā aplūkotas krāsu teorijas un ekoloģiskās valences teorijas principi. Rezultāti liecina, ka pētījumā konstatētas atšķirīgas krāsu izvēles.
Cultural Adaptation of the Modified Version of the Conflicts Tactics Scale (M-CTS) in Mexican Adolescents
2019
Several scales are used in Dating Violence studies assuming cross-cultural invariance and equivalence of the measures without making the proper validation in the intended populations. This study focuses on the importance of adapting existing dating violence psychological instruments (as the widely recognized Modified Version of the Conflict Tactics Scale, M-CTS) in diverse adolescent populations adjusting to international validation procedures that ensure the cultural fit of the instrument and the measurement invariance of the construct. We sought to adapt the M-CTS in Mexican adolescents (N = 1861; 57.5% woman) following the ITC Guidelines for Translating and Adapting Test. We made an anal…
Geography of urban and locational conflicts in Valencia and its metropolitan area
2021
Aquest article fa una anàlisi sobre els conflictes territorials sorgits al llarg dels darrers anys, de principis de la dècada de 2000 fins a 2013, a l’àrea metropolitana de València. Amb aquesta anàlisi, volem realitzar una radiografia sobre la conflictivitat territorial d’aquest espai urbà i avançar hipòtesis amb referència a les causes que la van provocar, com també estudiar les connexions espacials que es van establir, de cara a una formulació posterior de recomanacions per a una planificació urbana i territorial i un govern de la ciutat millors. Aquest treball és el resultat d’una recerca sistemàtica sobre conflictes territorials, actors i estratègies en tota mena de disputes relacionad…
Los saberes en torno a la tuberculosis en Valencia a través de la prensa médica (1882-1914)
2011
Para la realización de este trabajo se ha partido del interés que tiene estudiar la literatura científica que a finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX dedicó una sociedad como la valenciana al tema de la tuberculosis, de primera importancia no solo en la realidad epidemiológica de la época, sino también para la constitución de la ciencia y las prácticas médicas contemporáneas. Se ha abordado el estudio de los saberes en torno a la tuberculosis en Valencia a través de las revistas médicas publicadas en ella entre 1882 y 1914, periodo en el que se descubrió el origen microbiano de la enfermedad y se desarrollaron nuevas técnicas diagnósticas, preventivas y curativas de la infección tubercu…

Linguistic, Contextual, and Experiential Equivalence Issues in the Adaptation of a Performance-Based Assessment of Generic Skills in Higher Education
2022
This qualitative study investigated the various linguistic, contextual, and experiential equivalence issues embedded in a performance-based instrument aimed at assessing generic skills in higher education. A rigorous translation and adaptation process (American English to Finnish) was conducted on one instrument, namely Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA+) International. The data were obtained from cognitive laboratories (n = 13), with think-alouds and follow-up interviews conducted among Finnish undergraduate students. Content logs were created, and the data were analyzed thematically. The findings revealed that linguistic and contextual equivalence issues were more prominent than experie…

Equivalence of viscosity and weak solutions for a $p$-parabolic equation
2019
AbstractWe study the relationship of viscosity and weak solutions to the equation $$\begin{aligned} \smash {\partial _{t}u-\varDelta _{p}u=f(Du)}, \end{aligned}$$ ∂ t u - Δ p u = f ( D u ) , where $$p>1$$ p > 1 and $$f\in C({\mathbb {R}}^{N})$$ f ∈ C ( R N ) satisfies suitable assumptions. Our main result is that bounded viscosity supersolutions coincide with bounded lower semicontinuous weak supersolutions. Moreover, we prove the lower semicontinuity of weak supersolutions when $$p\ge 2$$ p ≥ 2 .
Intraocular pressure and central corneal thickness in an old French population: The MONTRACHET study
2013
Purpose: To describe the distribution of intraocular pressure (IOP) and central corneal thickness (CCT) in an old French population. Methods: About 9000 individuals 65 years and older were included in the 3C cohort study since 1999 in 3 French cities (Bordeaux, Dijon and Montpellier). In Dijon, an additional ophthalmic examination was performed 10 years after the initial inclusions to assess the relation between systemic age-related diseases and eye diseases in the MONTRACHET Study (Maculopathy Optic Nerve nuTRition neurovAsCular and HEarT diseases). In this population-based stuy a thorough eye examination and a questionnaire were undertaken in each participant. Intraocular pressure (IOP) w…
