Métodos para la caracterización del sistema de revisión por pares de artículos científicos
2022
El proceso de revisión por pares constituye una pieza clave de los engranajes que componen el sistema de publicación de la ciencia. Este vela por la calidad, integridad, reproducibilidad y robustez de los trabajos que se envían a las revistas científicas y es objeto continuo de estudio y discusión en la comunidad científica, involucrando a autores, editores y revisores en una tarea conjunta plagada de procesos sociales que se manifiestan a modo de negociación entre las diferentes partes, asumiendo el editor el papel de árbitro. A su vez, el proceso de revisión por pares es la insignia de calidad de las propias revistas. Mantener unos altos estándares y hacer del sistema de revisión un eleme…
The Role of the Skeletal Muscle Secretome in Mediating Endurance and Resistance Training Adaptations
2021
Exercise, in the form of endurance or resistance training, leads to specific molecular and cellular adaptions not only in skeletal muscles, but also in many other organs such as the brain, liver, fat or bone. In addition to direct effects of exercise on these organs, the production and release of a plethora of different signaling molecules from skeletal muscle are a centerpiece of systemic plasticity. Most studies have so far focused on the regulation and function of such myokines in acute exercise bouts. In contrast, the secretome of long-term training adaptation remains less well understood, and the contribution of non-myokine factors, including metabolites, enzymes, microRNAs or mitochon…
Intervenciones educativas que favorecen la autoestima en el alumnado de Educación Infantil y Educación Primaria: Una revisión sistemática
2022
La educación emocional y la autoestima son esenciales para el desarrollo integral de los niños y niñas, por ello son necesarios programas educativos eficaces en la escuela a edades tempranas. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática es analizar las intervenciones que trabajan el fomento de la autoestima existentes en el ámbito de la Educación Infantil y Educación Primaria, y examinar cuál de ellas resultan más efectivas. Tras realizar la búsqueda de literatura en las bases de datos Psicodoc, PsycInfo y Eric, se incluyen 5 estudios que cumplen los criterios de inclusión en dicha revisión sistemática. Los resultados muestran un aumento significativo de la autoestima en el 80% de los programas…
Implementation and Outcomes of Lay Health Worker–led Self-management Interventions for Long-Term Conditions and Prevention: A Systematic Review
2019
The aim of this study was to systematically review lay health worker (LHW)–led self-management interventions for adults with long-term conditions to see how the interventions have been implemented and to compose a synthesis of research findings, taking into consideration the intervention components that have been applied. We conducted systematic searches for articles published between January 2010 and December 2015 in five databases: Cochrane, MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Web of Science. Forty original studies were found that met the inclusion criteria: self-management with diabetes (n = 29), cardiovascular diseases (n = 8), and those at risk of cardiovascular diseases (n = 3). These cons…
Comparing male and female students’ self-efficacy and self-regulation skills in two undergraduate mathematics course contexts
2018
International audience; Students' efficacy beliefs have a positive influence on students' academic achievement and retention, especially for female students. These beliefs are closely linked to students' ability to regulate their learning. In this quantitative study, students' self-efficacy and self-regulation of learning are compared in two university mathematics courses that differ in content but also in their pedagogical setting: one is a more traditional lecture-based course, and the other course is taught with the Extreme Apprenticeship (XA) method. The analysis is based on the same cohort of students in the two contexts (N=91). The results suggest that students have higher self-effica…
“Perhaps you remember...?” About students’ strategies of remembering the forgotten during secondary school final examination interviews
2019
The basic question I pose in this paper is the following: What language strategies are used by students who find it difficult to reproduce the content required during a secondary school final examination interviews? The text consists of four main parts. In the first part, on the basis of legal acts, I describe the formula of the new secondary school final examination in Polish, taking into account its purpose and course. In the second part, I focus my attention on one part of the oral exam – the final examinationinterview– seeing it as a species functioning in the educational discourse. The third part contains the results of the analysis of the questions asked to the students during the sec…
Setting Individual Goals for Pupils with Profound Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities : Engaging in the Activity Area-Based Curriculum Making
2021
The activity area-based curriculum model (AACM) is used in the Finnish basic education to support pupils—most of whom have profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD)—who could benefit more from skills that advance independent life coping. Existing studies have concentrated mainly on the Individual Education Plan (IEP) goal-setting process for pupils with milder disabilities than PIMD and have consistently demonstrated significant barriers in the process. This study explores the collaborative IEP goal-setting process for pupils with the AACM. Sixty-five Finnish special education teachers using the AACM participated in the study. Semi-structured interviews were analysed with thema…

Raccontare lo street food in viaggio: critica del giudizio turistico
2022
This paper is about tourist reviews of a specific gastronomic universe: street food. Specifically, I will deal with reviews from the Tripadvisor platform dedicated to street food places in the city of Palermo. The idea of focusing on reviews comes from the hypothesis that, since this type of textuality is an utterance at the end of a path, and is therefore the Sanction in narrative terms, we can reconstruct from reviews, by presupposition, the value systems that the enunciator-tourist projects on the gastronomic experience. That is, if there is a judgment it is because there is a preceding Contract, more or less explicit, very often implicit, that is grounded in a set of values that constit…
Bcl-xL as a Modulator of Senescence and Aging
2021
Many features of aging result from the incapacity of cells to adapt to stress conditions. When cells are overwhelmed by stress, they can undergo senescence to avoid unrestricted growth of damaged cells. Recent findings have proven that cellular senescence is more than that. A specific grade of senescence promotes embryo development, tissue remodeling and wound healing. However, constant stresses and a weakening immune system can lead to senescence chronicity with aging. The accumulation of senescent cells is directly related to tissue dysfunction and age-related pathologies. Centenarians, the most aged individuals, should accumulate senescent cells and suffer from their deleterious effects,…
