Constructing Appropriate Information in School Transition. Documents as Institutional Agents of Topicalising Children’s (In)Capabilities and Pedagogi…
2020
In this chapter, I investigate how school transition documentation, in addition to recording issues, also actively constructs ideas about the topical information, roles and responsibilities and, consequently, institutional reality in school transition. In a transition phase, documentation has a great potential serve as a tool for ensuring the continuity in pedagogical practices. However, documentation is often found to focus on illustrating subjectifying and problem-oriented pictures of children and their incapabilities instead of explicating pedagogical practices and professional responsibilities in transition. In this chapter, I utilise the discursive approach to analyse the ready-set tra…
Subcutaneous Injection of Drugs: Literature Review of Factors Influencing Pain Sensation at the Injection Site.
2019
The subcutaneous administration route is widely used to administer different types of drugs given its high bioavailability and rapid onset of action. However, the sensation of pain at the injection site might reduce patient adherence. Apart from a direct effect of the drug itself, several factors can influence the sensation of pain: needle features, injection site, volume injected, injection speed, osmolality, viscosity and pH of formulation, as well as the kind of excipients employed, including buffers and preservatives. Short and thin needles, conveniently lubricated and with sharp tips, are generally used to minimize pain, although the anatomic injection site (abdomen versus thigh) also …

Analysis of documentary and terminological needs of doctors and medical translators as a basis for the development of a next-generation multilingual …
2014
En el presente trabajo se plantea el diseño de un recurso lexicográfico multilingüe orientado a médicos y traductores médicos. En la actualidad, no existe ningún recurso que satisfaga a ambos colectivos por igual, debido a que estos poseen necesidades muy diferentes. Sin embargo, partimos de la premisa de que se podría crear una herramienta única, modular, adaptable y flexible, que responda a sus diversas expectativas, necesidades y preferencias. Se parte para ello de un análisis de necesidades siguiendo el método empírico de recogida de datos en línea mediante una encuesta trilingüe. The objective of this study is to develop a multilingual lexicographical resource aimed at doctors and medi…

De la normatividad hacia la alteridad. Estudio mixto sobre el tratamiento de la diversidad en películas Disney
2021
La diversidad es condición sine qua non de la propia existencia, no entendida únicamente a nivel físico sino como cualquier diferencia entre personas. Por ello, esta se percibe como la suma de la normatividad y alteridad. Esta realidad se convierte en una de las pretensiones de la escuela actual, especialmente durante la Educación Infantil como periodo educativo en el que se asientan los valores de tolerancia y respeto. No obstante, se cuenta con barreras en cuanto a dicho paradigma inclusivo con elementos como la cultura visual de la imagen que en parte de sus producciones incluye un discurso separatista, clasista y en contra de la diferencia. Un ejemplo concreto radica en la colección “Lo…
The quality of life of residents of a satellite degraded city district as part of urban development policy
2017
The purpose of this article is to assess the quality of life of the residents of a degraded satellite area of a city. It is considered in the context of urban development policy – as the result of decisions and as a challenge for long-term development. The research was based on a case study, which is the district of Opole referred to as Metalchem. It is characterized by an isolated location in the city structure as well as economic transformations. The study was based primarily on an analysis of source materials and results of a survey. The results show that the assessment of the quality of life is inconsistent.

Care poverty : unmet care needs in a Nordic welfare state
2019
This article introduces the concept of care poverty, defined as inadequate coverage of care needs resulting from an interplay between individual and societal factors, and examines its level and predictors among the 75+ population in Finland. The data come from a survey conducted in 2010 and 2015. Despite the universalistic goals of the Finnish care system, 26 percent of respondents with limitations in daily activities faced care poverty with regard to instrumental activities of daily living; the activities of daily living care poverty rate was 17 percent. Concerning instrumental activities of daily living, care poverty was associated with income level, health status and living arrangements,…
Higher education in the fight against poverty from the capabilities approach: The case of Spain
2017
Abstract This article describes relative poverty in Spain in relation to the other States in the European Union, following the European indicator AROPE. The official data provided by the National Statistical Institute of Spain and by Eurostat, refer to the year 2014 (the last one for which definitive data are available is 2015). Given the relative poverty of Spanish population, the failure of conventional economic theories, which conceive social development as GDP growth, is clear, and it is argued in favour of the human capabilities approach as a more adequate option for development, from a theoretical-practical point of view, for the reduction and/or eradication of poverty, as well as the…
