Validación del cuestionario SEQ en población universitaria española. Capacidades del alumno y entorno de enseñanza/aprendizaje
2018
En este trabajo se validó el cuestionario SEQ (Study Engagement Questionnaire) de Kember y Leung (2009) en una muestra española. Es un instrumento diseñado para realizar una evaluación conjunta de los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje en la universidad y devolver feed-back a los profesores y a las instituciones para la mejora de estos procesos. Se utilizó una muestra de 805 sujetos de tres universidades valencianas. El cuestionario evalúa diversas capacidades del alumno así como la capacidad del profesor para diseñar un entorno de aprendizaje idóneo para aprender. Ha tenido varias versiones hasta conseguir una estabilidad notable en sus dimensiones (variables latentes) y en las relaciones e…
Factor Structure and Convergent Validity of the Long and Abbreviated Versions of the Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale in an Italian…
2013
We examined the psychometric characteristics of the long and abbreviated versions of the Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS) in the Italian contexts. In study 1 we assessed the factorial validity and reliability of the long and abbreviated versions of the MSLSS among Italian adolescents, while in study 2 we assessed the convergent validity of the abbreviated Italian version of the MSLSS by examining the associations between life satisfaction and well-established measures of adjustment. Furthermore, we explored the effect of adolescent gender and age on life satisfaction. Participants in the study 1 were 996 adolescents (48 % males) from 14 to 18 years of age (M = 16.0…
Une approche communicationnelle de la professionnalisation au sein des Instituts de formation en soins infirmiers en France
2013
Dans un contexte de fortes mutations et de réflexion autour du devenir des métiers de la santé et de l’appareil de formation qui leur est dédié en France, les formateurs et les directeurs des Instituts de Formation en Soins Infirmiers sont amenés à travailler à la construction et à la promotion du projet pédagogique de leur établissement. Au quotidien, leurs pratiques individuelles montrent combien leur lecture de la réalité de travail est singulière et se trouve en partie corrélée à leur professionnalité. A partir des significations que chacun d’eux exprime, la coopération entre ces professionnels semble se construire très progressivement à la croisée des problématiques communicationnelles…

Thought and Body. An activity of Logic in primary school
2015
Abstract In the recent decades, the pedagogical debate has been formerly traversed by the emergence an then by the assertion of a matured awareness on the importance of the psychomotor skills in the educational-didactic path. The interpretive bio-psycho-social matrix has today become one of the pivotal points on which the educational-didactic activity rests and develops for the training of child's personality in its full motor, mental, perceptual, emotional, sensory development. Pedagogues, educators, and training professionals are increasingly confident that, since the birth, children are sensitive to the stimuli and to the environmental intervention, therefore it's essential to know their…
Adult life‐styles and their precursors in the social behaviour of children and adolescents
1990
165 males and 155 females (87 per cent of the sample, N = 369, first studied at age 8) were retrieved after 18 years, at the age of 26, in the Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Social Development. A mailed questionnaire, personality inventories, and criminal records were used in the analysis of adult life‐styles. Continuity in social behaviour from the age of 8 to 20 was studied earlier (Pulkkinen, 1982) within a two‐dimensional model of impulse control defined by Social Activity vs. Passivity and Strength vs. Weakness of Self‐control. The present results showed that developmental trajectories for weak and strong self‐control obtained at the earlier stages were continued in young adulthood. …
Dynamics of the Shapovalov mid-size firm model
2020
Forecasting and analyses of the dynamics of financial and economic processes such as deviations of macroeconomic aggregates (GDP, unemployment, and inflation) from their long-term trends, asset markets volatility, etc., are challenging because of the complexity of these processes. Important related research questions include, first, how to determine the qualitative properties of the dynamics of these processes, namely, whether the process is stable, unstable, chaotic (deterministic), or stochastic; and second, how best to estimate its quantitative indicators including dimension, entropy, and correlation characteristics. These questions can be studied both empirically and theoretically. In t…
Study of irregular dynamics in an economic model: attractor localization and Lyapunov exponents
2021
Cyclicity and instability inherent in the economy can manifest themselves in irregular fluctuations, including chaotic ones, which significantly reduces the accuracy of forecasting the dynamics of the economic system in the long run. We focus on an approach, associated with the identification of a deterministic endogenous mechanism of irregular fluctuations in the economy. Using of a mid-size firm model as an example, we demonstrate the use of effective analytical and numerical procedures for calculating the quantitative characteristics of its irregular limiting dynamics based on Lyapunov exponents, such as dimension and entropy. We use an analytical approach for localization of a global at…
Estimating the gravity equation with the actual number of exporting firms
2013
Para estimar correctamente el efecto de los costes de comerciar sobre las exportaciones de las empresas, la ecuación de gravedad debe controlar por el número de empresas que opera en el mercado internacional. Debido a la ausencia de datos, estudios anteriores han controlado esta variable mediante técnicas econométricas que también pueden generar estimaciones sesgadas. Para superar estos problemas este trabajo estima una ecuación de gravedad utilizando una nueva base de datos de la OCDE y EUROSTAT , que incluye el número de empresas exportadoras en cada relación bilateral. Nuestros resultados muestran que no controlar el margen extensivo genera sesgos muy importantes en la estimación de los …
Factor Structure and Measurement Invariance Across Gender Groups of the 15-Item Geriatric Depression Scale Among Chinese Elders
2019
The 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) is widely used to screen depression among elders. But the factor structure of the Chinese version GDS-15 remains unclear. This study was conducted to determine the best-fit factor structure of GDS-15 and to assess measurement invariance across gender groups in a sample of Chinese elders recruited from Mainland China (final sample N = 2428). The best-fit factor structure was examined by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Multigroup CFA was utilized to test the measurement invariance across genders of the factor structure. The results of CFA revealed that a three-factor model, including life satisfaction (four items), general depressive affect …
