Fatores motivacionais, autoestima e intenção de ser fisicamente ativo em estudantes de formação profissional desportiva
Get PDFEl objetivo principal del estudio fue predecir la influencia del clima motivacional interpersonal de los docentes, la satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas básicas y la motivación del alumnado de formación profesional de actividades físico-deportivas sobre su intención de ser físicamente activo y la autoestima. Se administró un cuestionario a una muestra de 427 estudiantes (MEdad = 19.04; DT = 2.69) de los grados de Técnico en Guía en el Medio Natural y de Tiempo Libre, Técnico Superior en Acondicionamiento Físico y Técnico Superior en Enseñanza y Animación Sociodeportiva. Los resultados del análisis de regresión mostraron que la competencia, la regulación identificada, la regulación externa y la autopercepción de la condición física predijeron la intención de ser físicamente activo. Además, la competencia, la relación y la autopercepción de la condición física predijeron la autoestima del alumnado. En conclusión, mejorar la condición física a través de actividades físico-deportivas y la satisfacción de la necesidad de competencia puede potenciar tanto la intención de mantenerse activo como la autoestima de los estudiantesThe primary objective of this study was to predict the influence of teachers' interpersonal
motivational climate, the satisfaction of basic psychological needs, and the motivation of
vocational training students in physical-sport activities on their intention to be physically active
and their self-esteem. A questionnaire was administered to a sample of 427 students (Mage =
19.04; SD = 2.69) enrolled in programs such as Technician in Natural Environment and Leisure
Time Guide, Higher Technician in Physical Conditioning, and Higher Technician in Sports
Education and Animation. The results of the regression analysis showed that competence,
identified regulation, external regulation, and self-perception of physical condition predicted the
intention to be physically active. Moreover, competence, relatedness, and self-perception of
physical condition predicted students' self-esteem. In conclusion, enhancing physical fitness
through physical-sport activities and satisfying the need for competence can boost both the
intention to remain active and the self-esteem of studentsO principal objetivo deste estudo foi prever a influência do clima motivacional interpessoal dos

Artificial intelligence: innovative educational revolution in Higher Education
Get PDFEs una realidad que, en la universidad, la innovación educativa y las inteligencias artificiales están estrechamente relacionadas. Son múltiples los beneficios resultantes de integrar la IA en la práctica docente, así como la mejora el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Esta investigación se plantea desde una metodología cuantitativa, a través de un cuestionario formado de tres escalas diferentes (previamente validadas) sobre la práctica docente, la innovación educativa y la consideración hacia las inteligencias artificiales por parte del profesorado universitario. Se obtuvo una muestra de 159 docentes de la Universidad de Huelva; con el objetivo de explorar sus opiniones sobre la IA, sus actitudes hacia la innovación educativa y su relación con las prácticasdocentes. Los resultados revelaron que factores como el género son significativos en la actitud hacia la innovación. Además, se observó que la edad del profesorado influye en la actitud hacia la IA, de forma que el profesorado más joven es el que más utiliza las IA en las aulas y también tiende a ser el que más innova. En general, el profesorado tiene una opinión más positiva sobre el uso de la IA en investigación que en docencia, donde aún se localizan ciertas reticenciasIt is a reality that, in the university, educational innovation and artificial intelligence are closely related. There are severalbenefits resulting from integrating AI into teaching practice, as well as improving the teaching-learning process. This research is based ona quantitative methodology, through a questionnaire comprisingthree different scales (previously validated) on teaching practice, educational innovation and consideration of artificial intelligence by university professors. A sample of 159 teachers from the University of Huelva was formed; with the aim of exploring their opinions on AI, their attitudes towards educational innovation and its relationship with teaching practices. The results revealed that factors such as gender are significant in the attitude towards innovation. Furthermore, it was observed that the age of the teachers influencedthe attitude towards AI, so that the youngest teachers are thosewho use AI the most in the classrooms and also tend to be the ones who innovate the most. In general, teachers have a more positive opinion onthe use of AI in research than in teaching, where there isstill somereluctanceEste trabajo ha obtenido financiación para la traducción del mismo a través del Centro de Investigación en Pensamiento Contemporáneo e Innovación para el Desarrollo Social (COIDESO) de la Universidad de HuelvaPedagogí
The educational use of ResearchGate and LinkedIn to develop motivation for academic reading: An experimental study
Get PDFEl objetivo de este estudio es analizar los efectos de una intervención educativa desde la educación virtual basado en el
uso educativo de ResearchGate y LinkedIn para propiciar mayores niveles en la motivación por la lectura académica.
Participaron 210 estudiantes de la Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas de Cuba. El proyecto de innovación que
sustenta esta investigación concluyó en el 2022 por tal motivo, los resultados que se muestran son de tipo ex post facto.
Se diseñó un estudio de caso con un grupo de control y uno experimental. Se replicó una escala y su subescala y se
diseñó y validó un cuestionario ad-hoc. Además, se emplearon pruebas estadísticas y la coincidencia de patrones para
determinar similitudes y diferencias entre los grupos. En el grupo experimental se evidenciaron diferencias significativas
lo cual se demuestra en mayores niveles de motivación. Estos estudiantes apreciaron que los aspectos de LinkedIn que
más le contribuyeron a su motivación fueron: conocer oportunidades y novedades del campo laboral y profesional y,
publicar artículos y post blog. En el caso de ResearchGate fueron: identidad digital; curación de contenidos y, el
aprendizaje colaborativo desde los grupos y proyectos de investigación. Se concluye, que el uso de estas redes permitió
fortalecer las habilidades de selección de la información científica, su agrupamiento, análisis y difusiónThe objective of this study is to analyze the effects of an educational intervention from virtual education based on the
educational use of ResearchGate and LinkedIn to promote higher levels of motivation for academic reading. 210 students
from University of Informatics Science participated. The innovation project that supported this research concluded in 2022;
therefore, the results shown are ex post facto. In the study, a case study was designed with a control group and an
experimental one. A scale and its subscale were replicated, and an ad-hoc questionnaire was designed and validated. In
addition, statistical tests and pattern matching were used to determine similarities and differences between groups.
Significant differences were evident in the experimental group, which is demonstrated in higher levels of motivation. These
students appreciated that the aspects of LinkedIn that contributed the most to their motivation were: learning about
opportunities and news in the labor and professional field, and publishing articles and blog posts. In the case of
ResearchGate they were digital identity, content curation and collaborative learning from research groups and projects. It
is concluded that the use of these networks allowed to strengthen the skills of selection of scientific information, its
grouping, analysis, and disseminationPedagogí
Unraveling generalized parton distributions through Lorentz symmetry and partial DGLAP knowledge
Get PDFRelying on the polynomiality property of generalized parton distributions, which roots on Lorentz
covariance, we prove that it is enough to know them at vanishing and low skewness within the Dokshitzer-
Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi region to obtain a unique extension to their entire support up to a D term.
We put this idea in practice using two methods: reconstruction using artificial neural networks and finiteelements
methods. We benchmark our results against standard models for generalized parton distributions.
In agreement with the formal expectation, we obtain very a accurate reconstruction for a maximal value of
the skewness as low as 20% of the longitudinal momentum fraction. This result might be relevant for
reconstruction of generalized parton distribution from experimental and lattice QCD data, where
computations are, for now, restricted in skewnessJ. M. M. C. thanks V. Bertone, B. Blossier, M. Riberdy,

Mercado de trabajo, segregación de género y biopoder : análisis comparativo de los obstáculos y estrategias de las trabajadoras en México, España y Países Bajos
Get PDFEl trabajo es una de las herramientas que tienen las personas para ganar valor en la sociedad y para
conseguir los recursos que se necesitan para vivir. Por esto, el trabajo puede ser visto ya como una
pauta hacia el rescate social, ya como una forma de independencia. Entonces, el acceso al mercado
laboral es una forma de garantizar dicha independencia y recursos vitales para las personas. A
pesar de ello, existen diversos obstáculos en el acceso al mercado de trabajo y uno de estos es la
discriminación basada en el género, que perjudica a las mujeres en cuanto a su agencia social y
política. Sin embargo, a pesar de la importancia que está cobrando la ausencia de las mujeres en
puestos de altos cargos (lo que se conoce como segregación vertical), a menudo se da por sentado
que el acceso de las trabajadoras a cualquier tipo de rubro está garantizado, aunque en la práctica
no siempre es así (lo que se conoce como segregación horizontal). Este espejismo de igualdad se
traduce también en la literatura académica sobre el tema, donde existe un desequilibrio entre la
literatura sobre la segregación vertical y horizontal. Particularmente en países occidentales, donde
la idea de una sociedad liberal e igualitaria corresponde a un discurso identitario autorreferencial
que los países hacen de sí mismos, exponiéndose a sesgos perceptivos sobre la presencia de las
mujeres en los diversos sectores del mercado laboral. Esta investigación pretende identificar los
principales obstáculos que encuentran las mujeres en aquellos sectores donde están
subrepresentadas, así como conocer las estrategias que ellas ponen en marcha para enfrentarse a
dichos obstáculos. Para lograr esto, se analizan tres estudios de caso de colectivos de trabajadoras:
una cooperativa de pescadoras en México, una asociación de rederas en España y un grupo no
organizado de trabajadoras latinoamericanas en sectores infrarrepresentados en Países Bajos. La metodología utilizada es cualitativa, a través del uso de entrevistas en profundidad y observación
participante.
En este estudio se observa que los obstáculos que encuentran las mujeres para acceder y
permanecer en los sectores de trabajo analizados están directamente relacionados con su género y
con las relaciones históricas entre género y trabajo en sus respectivos contextos. Además, en el caso
de las trabajadoras inmigrantes latinoamericanas en Países Bajos, la discriminación de género se
interrelaciona con la etnicidad en la forma de dinámicas de sexualización y racialismo.
En lo que concierne a las respuestas de los tres colectivos analizados frente a la segregación
horizontal en el mercado laboral, los primeros dos grupos han elaborado estrategias colectivas para
abrir una brecha en profesiones que en su territorio son tradicionalmente masculinas. Mientras
que las trabajadoras en Países Bajos han adoptado estrategias personales, influyendo en esto su
estatus migratorio y las complicaciones encontradas a la hora de llegar al país, a pesar del proyecto
migratorio inicial.Work is one of the tools people can dispose of to gain value in society and to obtain the resources
needed to live. Therefore, work can be seen either as a guideline towards social rescue or as a form
of independence. Thus, access to the labour market is a way of guaranteeing such independence
and vital resources to people. Despite this, there are several obstacles to accessing the labour
market and one of these is gender-based discrimination, which disadvantages women and
undermines their social and political agency. However, despite the growing importance of women’s
(lack of) presence in high-ranking positions (vertical segregation), it is often taken for granted that
women workers' access to any kind of sector and profession is guaranteed when in practice this is
not always the case (horizontal segregation). This illusion of equality is also reflected in the
academic literature on the subject, where there is an imbalance between the literature on vertical
and horizontal segregation. Particularly in Western countries, where the idea of a liberal and
egalitarian society corresponds to an identitarian narrative that countries make of themselves,
exposing themselves to perceptual biases about the presence of women in the various sectors of
the labour market. This research aims to identify the main obstacles that women encounter in those
sectors where they are underrepresented, as well as the strategies that they put in place to confront
these obstacles. To achieve this, three case studies of groups of women workers are analysed: a
cooperative of fisherwomen in Mexico, an association of fisherwomen in Spain and an unorganised
group of Latin American women workers in sectors underrepresented by women in the
Netherlands. The methodology used is qualitative, through the use of in-depth interviews and
participant observation, among other methodological tools.
This study shows that the obstacles that women encounter in accessing and remaining in the work
sectors analysed are directly related to their gender and to the historical relations between gender
and work in their contexts. Moreover, in the case of Latin American women workers in the
Netherlands, gender discrimination intersects with ethnicity in the form of dynamics of
sexualisation and racialism.
As far as the responses of the three groups analysed to horizontal segregation in the labour market
are concerned, the first two groups have developed collective strategies to breach traditionally
male-dominated professions in their territory. While female workers in the Netherlands have
adopted personal strategies, influenced by their migration status and the complications
encountered when arriving in the country despite their initial migration project.Sociología, Trabajo Social y Salud Públic
Health-Related Quality of Life in Long-Term Colorectal Cancer Survivors
Get PDFThe aim of our study is to evaluate the relationship between sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of individuals with Colorectal Cancer (CRC), tumour-intrinsic characteristics and treatment received with health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of data from 805 survivors from the MCC study was conducted. HRQoL was assessed through a general and specific questionnaire, SF-12 and FCSI (Colorectal Symptom Index). Statistical analyses were performed with linear regression with adjustment for sociodemographic variables, stage at diagnosis and histological grade. Results: Participants had survived a median of 7.9 years from diagnosis (IQR 7.1–8.5 years). Age at diagnosis, sex and area showed a clear association with HRQoL in both physical and mental dimensions of the SF-12 questionnaire. A direct association between CRC recurrence was also found in the PCS-12 and MCS-12 dimensions and radical surgery in the PCS-12. Regarding the scores in FCSI questionnaire, statistically significant differences were observed by sex, age and area, with older women being the most impaired (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Age, sex and area was associated with lower scores of HRQoL among CRC survivors. Knowing the determinants related to HRQoL would allow us to lay the groundwork to develop strategies that help reduce morbidity and mortality, relapses and increase HRQoL.This study was partially funded by the “Acción Transversal del Cancer”, approved on the Spanish Ministry Council on the 11 October 2007, by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III-FEDER (PI08/1770, PI08/0533, PS09/01286-León), by the Junta de Castilla y León (LE22A10-2), by Junta de Andalucía PI-0571(2010) and by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (PI15/01032, PS09/2078, PI12/00265).Sociología, Trabajo Social y Salud Públic
Burden of postmenopausal breast cancer attributable to excess body weight: comparative study of body mass index and CUN- BAE in MCC- Spain study
Get PDFBackground 10% of postmenopausal breast cancer cases are attributed to a high body mass index (BMI). BMI underestimates body fat, particularly in older women, and therefore the cancer burden attributable to obesity may be even higher. However, this is not clear. CUN- BAE (Clínica Universidad de Navarra–Body Adiposity Estimator) is an accurate validated estimator of body fat, taking into account sex and age. The objective of this study was to compare the burden of postmenopausal breast cancer attributable to excess body fat calculated using BMI and CUN- BAE. Methods This case–control study included 1033 cases of breast cancer and 1143 postmenopausal population controls from the multicase–control MCC- Spain study. Logistic regression models were used to calculate odds ratios (ORs). The population attributable fraction (PAF) of excess weight related to breast cancer was estimated with both anthropometric measures. Stratified analyses were carried out for hormone receptor type. Results Excess body weight attributable to the risk of breast cancer was 23.0% when assessed using a BMI value ≥30 kg/m2 and 38.0% when assessed using a CUN- BAE value of ≥40% body fat. Hormone receptor stratification showed that these differences in PAFs were only observed in hormone receptor positive cases, with an estimated burden of 19.9% for BMI and 41.9% for CUN-BAE. Conclusion These findings suggest that the significance of excess body fat in postmenopausal hormone receptor positive breast cancer could be underestimated when assessed using only BMI. Accurate estimation of the cancer burden attributable to obesity is crucial for planning effective prevention initiativesThis research was supported by Acción Transversal del Cáncer (approved by the Spanish Council of Ministers on 11 October 2007), Carlos III Health Institute- FEDER (PI08/1770, PI08/0533, PI08/1359, PS09/00773, PS09/01286, PS09/01903, PS09/02078, PS09/01662, PI11/01403, PI11/01889- FEDER, PI11/00226, PI11/01810, PI11/02213, PI12/00488, PI12/00265, PI12/01270, PI12/00715, PI12/00150, PI14/01219, PI14/0613, PI15/00069, PI15/00914, PI15/01032, PI11/01810, PI14/01219, PI11/02213, PIE16/00049, PI17/01179, PI17/00092), Fundación Marqués de Valdecilla (API 10/09), ICGC International Cancer Genome Consortium CLL (the ICGC CLL- Genome Project is funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness through the Carlos III Health Institute (ISCIII)), ISCIII Red Temática de Investigación del Cáncer (RTICC) (RD12/0036/0036), Regional Government of Castilla y León (LE22A10- 2), Regional Health Ministry of Andalucía (PI- 0571- 2009, PI- 0306- 2011, salud201200057018tra), Regional Health Ministry of Valencia (AP_061/10), Recercaixa (2010ACUP00310), Regional Government of the Basque Country, Regional Health Ministry of Murcia, European Commission (grants FOOD-CT-2006–036224-HIWATE), Spanish Association Against Cancer (AECC) Scientific Foundation (GCTRA18022MORE), Agency for Management of University and Research Grants (AGAUR) of the Catalan Regional Government (2014SGR647, 2014SGR850 and 2017SGR723), Fundación Caja de Ahorros de Asturias and University of Oviedo.
