Lifestyle in Undergraduate Students and Demographically Matched Controls during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Spain
2021
Few studies have used a multidimensional approach to describe lifestyle changes among undergraduate students during the COVID-19 pandemic or have included controls. This study aimed to evaluate lifestyle behaviors and mental health of undergraduate students and compare them with an age and sex-matched control group. A cross-sectional web survey using snowball sampling was conducted several months after the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic in Spain. A sample of 221 students was recruited. The main outcome was the total SMILE-C score. Students showed a better SMILE-C score than controls (79.8 + 8.1 vs. 77.2 + 8.3
Più maestri tra i banchi di scuola primaria
2022
Nei Paesi membri dell’OECD, i maestri di scuola primaria rappresentano una minoranza del corpo docente, per la bassa remunerazione, lo scarso prestigio sociale e lo stereotipo di una professione ritenuta femminile. Nella prima parte di questo contributo, si ricostruiscono le ragioni con cui si spiega la mancanza degli insegnanti maschi nella scuola primaria e si presentano i rimedi che alcuni Paesi hanno tentato di applicare per ridurre la dimensione di questo problema. Nella seconda parte, si presentano i risultati di un’indagine svolta nel 2021 sulla professione di maestro percepita da 71 studenti maschi frequentanti il corso di studi in Scienze della Formazione Primaria presso l’Universi…
Simulated root canals preparation time, comparing ProTaper Next and WaveOne Gold systems, performed by an undergraduate student
2020
Background: The aim of this study was to compare the WaveOne Gold and ProTaper Next systems regarding the time spent preparing simulated canals performed by an inexperienced student. Material and Methods: 80 simulated L-shaped canals were randomly divided into two groups (n = 40) and numbered in order of instrumentation. Canals were instrumented with WaveOne Gold (group 1) and ProTaper Next (group 2) systems. The effective instrumentation time and the number of instrumentation cycles were recorded. All procedures were performed by the same operator. Statistical analysis was obtained by the Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis test with significance of p <0.05. Results: There were no statistically s…
The Dynamic Relationship between Response Processes and Self-Regulation in Critical Thinking Assessments
2021
Our aim was to explore higher education students’ response and self-regulatory processes plus the relationship between these, as evidenced in two types of performance-based critical thinking tasks included in the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA+) International instrument. The data collection consisted of 20 cognitive laboratories. The data were analyzed using a qualitative approach. The tasks were found to trigger different response and self-regulatory processes. Overall, the performance task evoked more holistic processes than the selected-response questions, in which students’ processes were more question-oriented. The results also indicated the entanglement of students’ response and …
