Concensus Rorschach interaction patterns of families with an asthmatic child
1987
This paper reports a study of interaction in families with a child suffering from bronchial asthma. Eighteen families, subdivided into two groups according to the severity of the child's illness, were given the Consensus Rorschach following Willi's procedure. Quantitative assessments of family members on cognitive-affective functioning and social interaction were obtained. Factor analysis of quantitative scores revealed diversified interactional strategies among family member groups. Families as wholes varied as to patterns of cross-generational alliances and/or domination of different family members and could be clustered into four interactional pattern groups. There was no correlation bet…

Las asociaciones de inmigrantes como organizaciones no gubernamentales de desarrollo. Entre la agencia y la adaptación institucional
2020
De modo progresivo las asociaciones de inmigrantes en España se han convertido en un agente importante de la cooperación para el desarrollo. En este sentido, el entorno político, favorecido por la incorporación del codesarrollo en las políticas públicas a partir del año 2002, propició la creación de una estructura y una nueva ventana de oportunidad para las asociaciones de inmigrantes. Como resultado, en muchas de ellas se generaron procesos de adaptación o incluso hibridación organizativa hacia la reconversión como ONGD. Es por ello que, a raíz de los resultados de un estudio realizado sobre el estado de las entidades del campo de la cooperación para el desarrollo en España, debatimos y an…
Social Participation Through Volunteering as Co-production of Public Services: Case Study of Latvia
2016
Active civic and social participation is considered to be significantly important for a country`s development in democratic societies. One of the popular forms of active citizenship is volunteering – the third economy sector that produces civic goods and/or services in which the public and private sectors are weak or inactive. In this aspect, volunteering is also a means for organized civil society to participate in the production of public services i.e. co-production. The aim of this research is the exploration of social participation in Latvia through volunteering, including its legal regulation and organizational setup, and identification of the aspects and prospects of volunteering in L…
Prostitution voluntary or forced. A contribution to the debate
2011
La tesis abolicionista de que nadie puede elegir libremente vender su cuerpo ha sido cuestionada por quienes reclaman el reconocimiento de derechos laborales para los trabajadores del sexo, lo cual ha dado lugar a una encendida polémica sobre el carácter voluntario o forzado de la prostitución. Los testimonios de veintitrés mujeres (incluyendo cinco ex prostitutas), recogidos mediante entrevistas en profundidad, sugieren que todas ellas están situadas en un punto intermedio del continuum que va desde la coerción criminal hasta la opción vocacional. Los pasajes relativos específicamente al itinerario de acceso a este mundo permiten distinguir tres tipos de prostitución en función del grado d…
Percepciones de los servicios sociales y representaciones de los trabajadores sociales.
2000
El trabajo que hoy presentamos es una parte de los resultados del Seminario de Investigación realizado en la materia de Psicología Social de los estudios de Trabajo Social de la Universidad de Valencia durante el año 1999. En dicho Seminario hemos tratado de aplicar el conocimiento obtenido en las materias de Cognición y Pensamiento Social al objeto de los Servicios Sociales y los Trabajadores Sociales. De los resultados y conclusiones obtenidas destaca la existencia de un porcentaje cercano al 60% de la población que tiene un nivel muy alto de desconocimiento y desintormación sobre los Servicios Sociales y los trabajadores sociales, resultado que contradice los elementos universalizadores …

Values, motivational orientation and team cohesion amongst youth soccer players
2021
There is a close link between moral education and sports activities. A well-organized sport can be an excellent means of transferring positive values to children and adolescents, which can influence motivation and group processes. This study aimed to analyse (a) the relationships between social, personal and individualistic values, motivational orientation and team cohesion amongst young soccer players and (b) compare differences in these variables between players competing in different age categories. Our participant sample comprised 401 male soccer players of Spanish teams (mean age = 14.64 years) competing in official competitive leagues, of five age categories, Under-10 years to Under-…
Between commodification and altruism: gender imbalance and attitudes towards organ donation. A representative survey of the German community
2008
The German transplant law (TGP) of 1997 only recognises organ donation if the donor agrees (‘extended consent’) and if done for altruistic reasons. Several alternatives will be discussed here, including incentives and passive agreement. Based upon a representative survey, the authors examined the attitudes of Germans towards several European models of organ donation and their attitude towards organ donation in general whilst living and after death. The acceptance of possible compensation systems was also explored. In Germany the majority do not favour compensation systems, but rather passive agreement. There is evidence of gender difference with respect to this attitude. Men tend to favour …
