The triumph of partisanship: political scientists in the public debate about Catalonia's independence crisis (2010-2018)
2021
Participation in the public debate constitutes one of the most evident avenues for political scientists to demonstrate the social relevance of the discipline. This article focuses on two questions: the types of roles political scientists adopt in their public interventions and the potential tensions between their public engagement and the epistemic norms regulating academic and research activities. We investigate these questions in the context of very salient political debates, involving a high degree of political confrontation, where basic political beliefs, values, identities, and interests are at stake. Focusing on the case of the public debate surrounding the Catalan inde pendence crisi…
IMPIEGO DEL CONTENUTO IDRICO DEL SUOLO E DEL DEFLUSSO SUPERFICIALE PER LA STIMA DELLA PERDITA DI SUOLO PARCELLARE A SCALA DI EVENTO
2016
Nel presente lavoro viene valutata la potenzialità di accoppiare la USLE con il contenuto d’acqua del suolo pre-evento o il deflusso stimato, per migliorare l’accuratezza della stima della perdita di suolo a scala di singolo evento erosivo. A tale scopo sono stati utilizzati due approcci per i quali la perdita di suolo e il fattore di erosività sono legati da una legge di potenza. Il primo è il modello USLE-MM con deflusso stimato da un modello afflussi deflussi, SCRRM, che importa dati di contenuto d’acqua. Il secondo approccio è quello del modello SM4E che utilizza i dati di contenuto d’acqua pre-evento per correggere il fattore di erosività della pioggia. I due modelli sono stati testati…
Development of Bioimage Analysis tools for the study of neurogenesis and neurodegeneration
2021
ANTECEDENTES La combinación sinérgica de métodos automatizados de captura y análisis de bioimagen está emergiendo como un enfoque de vanguardia para abordar muchas cuestiones biológicas. Sin embargo, hay muchos campos en los que estas técnicas aún no se implementan y, en cambio, todavía se basan en la inspección visual y el análisis manual, que inevitablemente limitan el rendimiento alcanzable y son más propensos a introducir el sesgo del investigador. Por lo tanto, aún queda un gran esfuerzo por hacer en la difusión del uso de tecnologías de bioimagen de vanguardia en los campos de las ciencias de la vida con una gran dependencia de métodos de microscopía. En la presente tesis, nuestro obj…
Conciencia emocional, estados de ánimo y rendimiento académico
2017
Abstract.Emotional awareness is the basic emotional competence, which refers to individual differences in the way of being aware of the emotional functioning. Moods appear without specific reason, and are prolonged in time. Both are involved in multiple processes that modulate behavior and cognitive processes. Overall, the literature suggests a relationship between these variables and academic performance in school, however, is a contentious issue to be determined. The objective is to study the relationship of emotional awareness and moods academic performance. The participants were 1423 children, between 8-12 years old (M=9.88, SD=1.20), of both sexes (52.4 % girls) from Valencia. Particip…
Nueva evidencia sobre la Statistical Anxiety Scale (SAS)
2014
Title: New evidence on the Statistical Anxiety Scale (SAS). Abstract: As anxiety is negatively related to academic performance, and it is broadly known the existence of both anxiety towards statistics and nega- tive statistics results, statistical anxiety may play a role of mediating negative outcomes in this subject. In this context, the Statistical Anxiety Scale (Vigil- Colet, Lorenzo-Seva, & Condon, 2008) aims to be a useful tool in the comparison of the predictive power of specific and general measures of statistics performance. In order to achieve this goal, the scale is based on three dimensions of anxiety, referred to three specific issues: regarding the exam, when asking for help or…
Influence of sociodemographic variables on anxiety and academic achievement in adolescence: the pluricultural context of Ceuta
2019
Resumen Este trabajo tiene como objetivo fundamental analizar la ansiedad y el rendimiento académico, sus tipos y niveles en función de edad, género, cultura y estrato socioeconómico, así como contemplar las relaciones entre ambas. Se contó con 811 participantes. El 71.6% de la muestra eran musulmanes, mientras que el 28.4% eran cristianos; el 46.1% hombres y el 53.9% mujeres. Como instrumentos de evaluación se empleó el STAIC (Spielberger, 2001) y las calificaciones del alumnado. Se reflejan niveles medio-bajos en ansiedad y medios en rendimiento académico. En la ansiedad influyen edad, género, cultura/religión y estatus socio-económico-cultural. Sobre el rendimiento actúan la edad, la cul…
La disclosure ambientale in Europa: evidenze dalle aziende quotate dell’Indice Euro Stoxx50
2023
The present study aims to detect the main internal and external determinants that influence corporate environmental disclosure practices. The empirical methodology consists of the development and use of an environmental disclosure dictionary specifically designed to examine corporate annual reports, in a fixed effect panel data econometric model, and in a difference-in-differences analysis. The sample analyzed includes those firms belonging to the Euro Stoxx 50 index, whose annual reports have been examined over the 2010 – 2019 time period. The main results show the existence of a non-linear relationship between firm size and environmental disclosure, whilst other firm-specific variables do…
Kształcenie badawcze w czasach globalizacji z perspektywy europejskiej
2019
This qualitative research study takes a closer look at developing competent researchers and thus building research capacity within Europe. The rapidly changing research environment driven by globalisation, internationalization, technological advancements, and the use of innovative methodologies impacts how research is designed, conducted, and reported on. We argue that the current complex research environment calls for globally competent researchers able to engage in research projects and research communities across disciplines and across geographic borders. However, there is scarce empirical evidence about research knowledge and competencies which global researchers need to conduct quality…

A New Concept of R&D in NEO Open Innovation : Transformation of R&D Triggered By Amazon
2019
Amazon was the world’s top R&D firm in 2017. Its R&D investment was double that of 2015, quintuple that of 2012, and tenfold that of 2011. It deploys a unique R&D model as conducting “routine or periodic alternations” and “significant improvement” simultaneously. Since traditionally the former is classified as non-R&D, Amazon’s rapid and notable increase has raised the question of a new R&D definition in the digital economy. By means of an empirical analysis of the Amazon’s R&D model, this paper attempted to provide a convincing answer to this question. Amazon has invested considerable resources in extremely innovative business areas, which has developed its assimilation capacity. In parall…
