Que el derecho a la intimidad está de moda es algo incuestionable. Los nuevos medios tecnológicos y los crecientes avances informáticos han aumentado de manera exponencial los riesgos de lesión de los derechos fundamentales de la personalidad.
Segment duration in Finnish as imitated by Russians
2014
The paper reports findings of a study in which Russian speakers without any prior knowledge of Finnish imitated utterances in that language, and, in particular, how they succeeded in imitating segmental duration. The data was analysed using acoustic measurements of segment duration as well as auditory analysis by four judges. The results show that Russian speakers faced difficulties in imitating some aspects of the complicated Finnish quantity system. On the other hand, many of the imitated words were judged as comprehensible. Index Terms: duration, length, Finnish, imitation, language learning
The Psychobiosocial States (PBS-S) Scale
2019
Abstract. This study examined the factor structure and reliability of the Psychobiosocial States (PBS-S) scale in the assessment of situational performance-related experiences. We administered the scale to 483 Finnish athletes before a practice session to assess the intensity and perceived impact of their performance-related feeling states. The hypothesized two-factor structure indicating functional effects (10 items) and dysfunctional effects (10 items) toward performance was examined via exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Regarding the intensity and perceived impact dimensions of reported states, ESEM and CFA showed a good fit for a tw…
Interspecific Social Learning: Novel Preference Can Be Acquired from a Competing Species
2007
SummaryNongenetic transmission of behavioral traits via social learning allows local traditions in humans, and, controversially, in other animals [1–4]. Social learning is usually studied as an intraspecific phenomenon (but see [5–7]). However, other species with some overlap in ecology can be more than merely potential competitors: prior settlement and longer residence can render them preferable sources of information [8]. Socially induced acquisition of choices or preferences capitalizes upon the knowledge of presumably better-informed individuals [9] and should be adaptive under many natural circumstances [10, 11]. Here we show with a field experiment that females of two migrant flycatch…
Sing with the Telenoid
2012
We introduce a novel research proposal project aimed to build a robotic setup in which the Telenoid learns to improvise jazz singing in a duet with a human singer. In the proposed application, the Telenoid acts in teleoperated mode during the learning phase, while it becomes more and more autonomous during the working phase. A goal of the research is to investigate the essence of human communication which is based on gestures and prosody. We will employ an architecture for imitation learning that incrementally learns from demonstrations sequences of internal model activations, based on the idea of coupled forward- inverse internal models for representing musical phrases and the body sequenc…
Institutional Influences of Professional Associations and Franchise Organizations on Competitiveness of the Healthcare Clinics
2019
This paper uses insights from the institutional theory to study the competitiveness of the healthcare clinics in Spain. The environment of the healthcare services is highly institutionalized: professional associations are state agents responsible for the extensive regulation. Recently emerged franchise chains become subject for imitation by creating institutionalized routines from within and increasing competitive pressures for other industry players. While the sector is dominated by the independent doctors, franchise organizations are becoming more popular and show steady growth rates. The franchise business model in healthcare is evolving: while the core activity—provision of a healthcare…
Translated and adaptation into Persian of the podiatric health questionnaire (PHQ)
2023
[Abstract] The Podiatric Health Questionnaire (PHQ) is a foot health psicometric tool consisting of six items for measuring foot health status. Currently, PHQ has been adapted into Spanish. Thus, this research focused on develop the Persian translation and adaptation of the PHQ. The translation into Persian and test-retest reliability methods were applied from english version questionnarie. As regards to the total mark for each sub-scale, internal consistency and reliability were determined by the Cronbach α and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) with a confidence interval (CI) of 95%. High internal consistency was shown for the six sub-scales: a) walk with a Cronbach α of 0.775; b) h…
Transcultural adaptation and validation of Italian Selfcarediabetic foot questionnaire
2021
[Abstract] The Italian Self care diabetic foot questionnaire, (SDFQ-IT) is considered a dia-betic foot self-care evaluation tool with 16 questions for assessing diabetic foothealth disorders. To date, SDFQ has been validated in different languages, butan Italian version was lacking. Consequently, the purpose of this study was totranslate and validate the Italian version of the SDFQ-I T (SDFQ-IT). A suitablemethod was developed for the translation protocol and cross-cultural valida-tion from Spanish to Italian. Regarding the total marks from each sub-scale,agreement degrees, and confidence were analysed using the Cronbach's α andintraclass correlation coefficient (IC C), respectively. In add…
Prevalence of Fibularis Tertius Muscle in a population in Spain : A Surface Anatomy Cross-sectional Study across Countries
2019
The fibularis tertius muscle (FTM) is a rare anatomic variation. The 5 prevalence of this exclusively human structure, which is found in the anterior 6 compartment of the leg, is often underestimated, and it is believed that foot and ankle 7 conditions are more difficult to manage in patients with an FTM. The aim of this study 8 was to assess the presence of the FTM palpation and determine whether its presence is 9 associated with an individual's sex, because the exact prevalence in males and females 10 is unclear. 11 Methods: This observational cross-sectional study included 481 people (23.49% men 12 and 76.51% women) with a mean age of 23.51 ± 5.369 years, who were recruited from 13 a Pod…
Efectividad del láser en el tratamiento de úlceras neuropáticas plantares en pie diabetico. Revisión bibliográfica
2018
The diabetic foot is an alteration induced by maintained hyperglycemia independently of the coexistence of ischemia, and previous traumatic trigger, which can produce ulceration of the foot, which supposes a high economic cost. This is the reason why it is essential to accelerate the process of tissue repair, with laser therapy being a very efficient therapeutic resource. The main objective of this work is to assess the effectiveness of the laser in the treatment of diabetic foot neuropathic ulcers. By bibliographic search in PubMed / Medline, Dialnet, Science Direct and Theseus databases, by keywords; diabetic foot, diabetic neuropathy, neuropathic ulcer, treatment and Laser. After conduct…
