Jet fragmentation transverse momentum distributions in pp and p-Pb collisions at √s, √sNN = 5.02 TeV

2021

Jet fragmentation transverse momentum (jT) distributions are measured in proton-proton (pp) and proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE experiment at the LHC. Jets are reconstructed with the ALICE tracking detectors and electromagnetic calorimeter using the anti-kT algorithm with resolution parameter R = 0.4 in the pseudorapidity range |η| < 0.25. The jT values are calculated for charged particles inside a fixed cone with a radius R = 0.4 around the reconstructed jet axis. The measured jT distributions are compared with a variety of parton-shower models. Herwig and Pythia 8 based models describe the data well for the higher jT region, while they underestimate the low…

Efficacy of “Family Connections”, a program for relatives of people with borderline personality disorder, in the Spanish population: study protocol f…

2020

Abstract Background Patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) experience significant affect regulation difficulties that cause serious consequences in their work, emotional, and social environments. This dysfunctional pattern also produces great suffering and a heavy burden on their relatives. Fortunately, some studies show that treatment of relatives of people with BPD begins to be important in the patients’ recovery and in improving family dynamics. One of the treatments that has obtained the most empirical support is Family connections (FC). This 12-session program is an adaptation of different Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies. To test the efficacy of FC, five uncontroll…

Embodied Spirituality

2012

Published version of an article in the journal: Archive for the Psychology of Religion. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/157361212X645340 The main findings on embodied spirituality within the Toronto Blessing are presented in this article. The aim of this study is to interpret ecstatic religious experiences from a psychological point of view. The theoretical framework is interdisciplinary, using theories from ego-psychology, social psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology, and ritual theory. Regarding the latter notion, Thomas Csordas has developed cultural phenomenology, which is a culturally constructed way of understanding a situation through using bodi…

Análisis de técnicas de “aggregation”/“disaggregation” aplicadas a imágenes satélite para la estimación de parámetros térmicos superficiales a difere…

2023

Las aplicaciones que implican la observación de la superficie terrestre desde plataformas satélites a escala inferior a la regional, como por ejemplo, el caso del seguimiento de cultivos, requieren de una mayor disponibilidad de información térmica, en particular de la temperatura de la superficie terrestre (LST), con resoluciones espaciales apropiadas para un alcance local. Por ello, numerosos autores han propuesto y desarrollado métodos para extraer la LST a nivel “subpíxel”, mediante el empleo de productos complementarios de teledetección, con resultados adecuados para su uso en resoluciones superiores. La mayoría de estos métodos se basan en la correlación entre índices de vegetación, c…

«“Isn’t It so Heartbreaking to See Our Loved Ones Decline Right before Our eyes”: Exploring Posts As Illness Stories».

2020

Set in the tradition of studies that look at digital interactions, this paper aims to explore the dimension of illness as referred to by informal caregivers in online exchanges. The research attempts to a) describe posts as mediated illness stories by comparing them to the storytelling in interaction model (Mishler), and b) explore what is revealed about the writer. A data set of 7371 posts (including sub-replies) has been studied as personal narratives in non-clinical therapeutic exchanges by means of Digital Conversation Analysis (Giles et al.), and investigated as written emotional disclosure (Pennebaker). Posts are found to convey explicit and implicit messages to be understood and inco…

Effet des pratiques et des connaissances sur la représentation sociale d'un objet : application à l'hygiène hospitalière

2008

The current study deals with the representation of hospital hygiene. The purpose is twofold: 1- to understand how knowledge about hygiene is acquired by nursing staff during their training (effect of the level of knowledge); 2- to identify how this knowledge evolves while practising a job in direct connection with hygiene (effect of practice). Three groups of participants were questioned: nursing staff (nursing executives, nurses and nursing auxiliaries), students training in nursing care (first, second and third year students) and non-specialist students. The results show that the three groups clearly share a common cultural base. This result confirms the existence of an overall architectu…

An Information Systems Design Theory for Integrated Requirements and Release Management Systems

2009

High-tech companies need to collect and analyze requirements and allocate them to appropriate product releases in market-driven product development. Development activities are typically scattered across multiple sites and involve multiple partners in different countries, complicating requirements and release management. Flexible, scalable, and secure groupware-based support for the activities provides substantial payoffs. Yet, the extant literature provides little theoretical guidance for designing and using requirements and release management systems in multi-site, multi-partner environments. This article develops the meta-requirements and a meta-design of an information systems design the…

Employees Resistance Within a Knowledge Intensive Firm

2016

The purpose of this article is to provide an empirical basis for understanding the issue of resistance within knowledge intensive firms. The paper initially provides a theoretical investigation identifying the research gap within the literature. The research gap further is explored through an empirical research. Research findings derive from the analysis of 11 in-depth interviews taken from a new media consultancy in UK. Moreover, the findings distinctively support that, staff resistance is beyond previously (traditional) assumed polar distinctions. In that way, the investigation illustrates that, staff resistance combines opposing meanings of their actions. Thus, it is revealed new aspects…

Lärarstudenter som aktörer i interaktiv observation och handledning: En studie om digitala redskap i VFU-handledning på övningsskolor

2018

Source at https://doi.org/10.23865/hu.v8.1078. Licensed CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. Syftet med denna artikel är att bidra med kunskap om hur digitala redskap kan påverka lärarstudenters deltagande i handledningsprocessen. Trots att lärarstudenter och handledare ofta befinner sig i digitala klassrumsmiljöer används digitala redskap endast i begränsad omfattning under handledningsprocessen. Med utgångspunkt i Wengers teori om lärande i en praktikgemenskap har lärarstudenter och handledare arbetat med stöd av digitala observationsunderlag. Processen har studerats på fyra övningsskolor. Information om studenternas erfarenheter av handledningen har samlats in via enkäter och fokusgruppsamtal. Resultatet vi…
