Comparison of Physical Activity and Sedentary Behaviour between Schoolchildren with Cystic Fibrosis and Healthy Controls: A Gender Analysis
2021
The purpose of this study was to examine differences in sports participation and the levels of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) between schoolchildren with cystic fibrosis (CF) and a healthy control group (CG) taking into account the gender variable. PA and SB were measured with an accelerometer for 7 consecutive days in 44 children (24 girls
A Dual-Process Model Applied to Two Health-Promoting Nutrition Behaviours
2021
We tested a dual process model incorporating constructs that reflect both performing the target behaviour (behaviour directed habit) and habits that run counter to the target behaviour (opposing behaviour habit) in accounting for variance in two health behaviours: eating the recommended serves of fruits and vegetables a day and restricting sugar-sweetened beverage consumption. A prospective correlational design with two waves of data collection separated by one week was adopted. Participants (N = 606) comprising middle school students (n = 266) and university students (n = 340) completed an initial survey comprising self-report measures of past behaviour, intention, and habit to perform the…
Early Antecedents of School Burnout in Upper Secondary Education : A Five-year Longitudinal Study
2020
AbstractSchool burnout symptoms are prevalent among upper secondary education students, but thus far, very little is known about the background of these symptoms. The present study examined the extent to which school burnout symptoms (i.e., exhaustion and cynicism) among upper secondary education students have their roots in primary and lower secondary school and whether early antecedents of school burnout symptoms could be identified. The sample consisted of 1544 Finnish students followed up four times (Time1–Time 4) from the end of primary school (T1; mean age 12.74 and range 11.71–14.20) to the first year of upper secondary education (T4; mean age 16.66 and range 15.55–18.39). The result…
Las representaciones del saber académico: Aportaciones desde la Geografía Escolar
2019
When we talk with basic education´s teachers there is an impression in the case of learning Social Sciences, and Geography in particular that these sciences are not useful for the explanation of socio-environmental and daily problems. In this research, improvement proposals are sought so that students are motivated to learn about these problems. Based on two case studies such as flood risks (and their relationship with climate change) and the problems of the rural areas, the possibilities of combining motivation for learning close to personal emotions and with their own rigor have been explored of the conceptual explanation. To validate these results, quantitative and qualitative research t…

Avoidant coping style and verbal-cardiovascular response dissociation
1996
Abstract This study explored the relationship between an avoidant coping style and three responses during three experimental periods (i.e., speech preparation, speech delivery, and recovery). One response was cardiovascular reactivity, the two other responses were subjective in nature: self-reports of anxiety and self-estimations of blood pressure. Subjects were 20 male and 20 female students who scored either in the upper third (i.e., high-avoiders) or lower third (i.e., low-avoiders) on cognitive avoidance (Krohne, 1989). When compared to subjects scoring low on avoidance, those high on avoidance showed greater systolic blood pressure (SBP) reactivity and evidenced verbal-autonomic respon…
Organisation et conditions de la formation des doctorants dans le cadre de l'université française
2007
This research, refering to the theoretical framework of Pierre Bourdieu, shows that higher education can be considered as a “champ scientifique”, defined as a microcosm, relatively autonomous from the economic and social macrocosm, nevertheless strongly affected by its values and its evolution toward liberalism. This evolution is clearly perceveid in the structural reforms (contractualization, decentralization, increased autonomy...) inferred notably by the construction of the European Higher Education and Research Area. Higher education is structured in a hierarchy with dominating disciplines (mathematics, physique, chemistry...) at the center and, dominated disciplines (Social sciences an…
Informācijpratība doktorantūras studentiem
2019
Konferences ziņojumā izklāstīts apkopojums par doktorantūras studentu informacionālām vajadzībām studijās un pētniecības darbā. Autore apkopojusi atziņas no zinātniskās literatūras bibliotēkzinātnes un izglītības jomās, kā arī no pieredzes, strādājot akadēmiskā vidē. Doktorantūras studentu informacionālās vajadzības nosaka to kompleksā daba, kā no vienas puses studiju un no otras puses pētniecības procesa dalībniekiem. Informācijas un komunikācijas tehnoloģijas ietekmē pētniecības darbplūsmu, un tiek attīstīti arvien jauni risinājumi dažādu pētniecības procesu veikšanai. Bibliotēku personālam, attīstot informācijpratības pakalpojumus, jāņem vērā doktorantūras studentu informacionālo vajadzī…
The impact of international stays on the development of competences in phd students and their transfer in different contexts
2019
El profesorado se enfrenta a crecientes y cambiantes demandas sociales que requieren una actualización constante de las competencias profesionales. En este sentido, el Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (EEES) plantea la importancia del papel de la enseñanza y el aprendizaje en diversos entornos y en cooperación con el mundo laboral y de la investigación. De hecho, estas competencias pueden ser desarrolladas, entre otras posibilidades, mediante las experiencias de estancias internacionales. El objetivo de esta investigación es examinar, mediante entrevistas, el papel de las estancias en el desarrollo de las competencias de estudiantes de doctorado y su posterior transferencia al alumnado…
Bērnības vardarbības ģimenē psiholoģiskā un psihiatriskā ietekme uz jauniešiem, kuri mācās universitātes līmenī
2022
Nosaukums: Bērnības vardarbības ģimenē psiholoģiskā un psihiatriskā ietekme uz jauniešiem, kuri mācās universitātes līmenī Authore: Katharina Franziska Melz, BA Darba vadītāja: Andis Užāns, MD Priekšvēsture: Vardarbība ģimenē jau sen ir atzīta par kaitīgu gan bērniem, gan pieaugušajiem. Daudzas valstis ir ieviesušas aizsardzības pasākumus, piemēram, nodrošinājušas audžuģimenes bērniem, kurus skārusi vardarbība ģimenē. Taču, tā kā vardarbība ģimenē parasti notiek tikai “aiz slēgtām durvīm”, ir jāpieņem, ka tā ir daudz izplatītāka, nekā liecina valsts statistika. Turklāt vardarbības ģimenē definīcija atšķiras, un to bieži uzskata par neērtu vai nepiemērotu diskusijai. Abi šie faktori apgrūtin…
