El consum recreatiu d'esteroides anabolitzants: una perspectiva sociològica
2013
The present study aims to provide a sociological overview of anabolic steroid use in Valencia (Spain), with particular attention to social factors that promote and sustain the recreational use of this drug. We consider not only the extensively documented health risks, but also the social determinants associated with its use. The lack of studies, both in the European and Valencian contexts, which describe the extension and consumption patterns of anabolic steroids among young people, has inspired us to portray the sociological characteristics of the recreational anabolic steroid user, taking the main conceptual tools of the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu as a central reference point. Following …
El camp periodístic i els professionals de la informació al País Valencià. Anàlisi de l'estructura comunicativa i de les argumentacions dels periodis…
2012
El principal interès d’aquesta recerca és l’estudi del camp periodístic en el seu estat actual i els canvis produïts en les darreres dècades, tot i prenent com a material empíric principalment l’anàlisi de les opinions i raons dels professionals de la informació sobre el camp i l’anàlisi de l’estructura comunicativa. L’estudi està fonamentat en les teories de les principals escoles sobre comunicació i els mèdia per a aplicar-les a un context determinat, el País Valencià. La tria dels professionals s’ha realitzat en aquest context, i l’estudi de l’estructura recull les dades de la comunitat autònoma, d’Espanya i d’Europa per a comparar-les. Els dos eixos de la recerca pel que fa als fonament…
La expansión de la civilización industrial y sus límites
2021
El presente capítulo aborda los límites de la expansión de la civilización industrial. Tras analizar el legado de esperanzas y amenazas del siglo XXI, se centra en el paso de los límites al crecimiento del Informe del Club de Roma en 1971 al crecimiento de los límites en el inicio del siglo XXI. Por último analiza las interrelaciones entre la sociología, la ecología y la globalización neoliberal
Signal processing techniques for robust sound event recognition
2019
The computational analysis of acoustic scenes is today a topic of major interest, with a growing community focused on designing machines capable of identifying and understanding the sounds produced in our environment, similar to how humans perform this task. Although these domains have not reached the industrial popularity of other related audio domains, such as speech recognition or music analysis, applications designed to identify the occurrence of sounds in a given scenario are rapidly increasing. These applications are usually limited to a set of sound classes, which must be defined beforehand. In order to train sound classification models, representative sets of sound events are record…
Performance Improvements of EventIndex Distributed System at CERN
2023
El trabajo de esta tesis se enmarca dentro del proyecto EventIndex del experimento ATLAS, un gran detector de partı́culas del LHC (Gran Colisionador de Hadrones) en el CERN. El objetivo del proyecto es catalogar todas las colisiones de partı́culas, o eventos, registrados en el detector ATLAS y también simulados a lo largo de sus años de funcionamiento. Con este catálogo se pueden caracterizar los datos a nivel de evento para su búsqueda y localización por parte de los usuarios finales. También se pueden realizar comprobaciones en la cadena de registro y reprocesado de los datos, para comprobar su corrección y optimizar futuros procesos. Debido al incremento en las tasas y volumen de datos e…
Institutional arrangements for sustainable development: Cases from the Navarra Province (Spain).
2015
After more than 20 years of the Earth Summit, Sustainable development is still recognized as one of the main challenges of the XXIst century. World leaders are putting new emphasis on the need to resolve urgent environmental challenges underlining their link with the wellbeing of humankind and the very conditions that made life possible on the planet. We are immersed in complex socio-ecological systems where sectoral or simplified responses are not adequate. A more systemic vision is imperative to effectively address the challenges faced. New approaches are being developed to integrate social, environmental and economic concerns in all human activities. Particular attention is given to deco…
Los efectos de las asimetrías de género en la salud de las mujeres
2003
This study analyses the effects on health of the asymmetry of power relations between the sexes and, specifically, how life conditions have a bearing on personal well-being. Subjective discomfort usually manifests itself by means of symptoms. Epidemiological studies show a higher physical and mental morbidity in women. A critica1 review of previous studies highlights the connections between symptoms and gender role and shows the existence of bias in the theoretical models and clinical practices. The implementation of health policies which take into account this bias - which consists in extrapolating the results obtained in exclusively male samples to the design of diagnostic methods, treatm…
On the friction/tangential restitution problem: Independent friction-restitution modeling of sphere rebound with arbitrary spin
2023
Most descriptions of collision events introduce coefficients of friction and tangential restitution which vary significantly with the impact angle, in contrast with the independence of the normal coefficient of restitution with this parameter. A redefinition of the coefficients of friction and tangential restitution based on the idea that friction and restitution effects can be treated as being mutually independent, provides a satisfactory description of experimental data using a ‘constant’ restitution coefficient independent on the impact angle. This independent friction-restitution modeling is developed here for the rebound of a homogeneous sphere having an arbitrary spin on a rough massi…
"Writing to Learn or Learning to Write". A Critical Review of "English as a Foreign Language" (EFL) Teaching Practices in Writing in Saudi Universiti…
2020
Developing proficiency in English writing has always been a challenge for L2 learners in general and Saudi learners in particular. Despite the widespread presence of English departments as a result of the sharp rise of Saudi universities in the previous decade, the numbers of outcomes or achievements in terms of skills are very discouraging. This paper aims to study this issue closely by investigating the most crucial elements that are likely to explain this weakness by reviewing the related empirical and theoretical studies in the Saudi context. This paper also aims to present to researchers a quick reference as to how English writing skills have evolved in Saudi Arabia in the recent past,…
Psychometric analysis of the Test of Dependence of Videogames (TDV) in Peruvian population
2017
Resumen El objetivo del presente trabajo es validar en población peruana, el Test de Dependencia de Videojuegos (TDV) (Chóliz & Marco, 2011). Los resultados obtenidos demuestran que se trata de una herramienta confiable y válida. Se encontró una sola estructura factorial, en lugar de cuatro dimensiones, como plantearon los autores del TDV. Este factor podría denominarse genéricamente: adicción a videojuegos, y podría servir como evidencia de la existencia de este trastorno, que coincidiría con el denominado ‘Trastorno de Juego por Internet’, que aparece en la Sección III del DSM-5. Los resultados hallados se discuten en relación a lo planteado por Chóliz y Marco (2011), en lo que se refiere…
