    Full text link
    Introduction. Dance, as a performance activity, is associated with various problems. Among these challenges, sleep disturbances are notably prevalent. Aims. This study aimed to explore the potential relationship between sleep characteristics-specifically chronotype and subjective sleep quality- and psychological inflexibility in dance students. Methods. This research adopted a cross-sectional design using non-probabilistic sampling. The data were collected in paper format by visiting public conservatories and private academies, and online. One hundred and fourteen dance students, with a mean age of 23.87 years, participated in the study. Assessment tools included the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and the Composite Scale of Morningness. Results. The results revealed that 80.7% of all students reported poor sleep quality, compared to 19.3% who reported good sleep quality. Differences emerged in both subjective sleep quality (F(2,113)=4.825, p=.010) and chronotype (F(2,113)=6.172, p=.003) when students were grouped according to low, medium, or high levels of psychological inflexibility. Those with low inflexibility, as opposed to those with high inflexibility, report better sleep quality, with no differences observed between medium and high inflexibility groups. Students with high-medium levels of psychological inflexibility showed a higher risk (OR=6.373 times higher) of experiencing poor sleep quality compared to those with low psychological inflexibility. In terms of chronotype, the low inflexibility group is inclined to be more of a morning type than the medium and high inflexibility groups, with no differences between the latter two groups. Students categorized as having low inflexibility tend to have a longer history of dancing under the guidance of a teacher and dedicate more hours and days per week to rehearsal. Conclusion. Conservatories can become “healthy spaces”. In this regard, sleep hygiene programs and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy interventions can provide guidance to professionals working with dancers in professional companies and conservatories.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: This work has been funded in part by the EPIT-UHU support to the CTS-980 Research Group.Departamento de Psicología Clínica, Experimental y Socia

    ¿Por qué ya no vamos a la taberna sino a la vinoteca?. El rico vocabulario del vino y la vid

    No full text
    l mundo del vino ocupa una parte importante de nuestro patrimonio cultural inmaterial. Más allá de su valor económico y gastronómico, el vino está presente en nuestro idioma. Desde refranes –“Con pan y vino se anda el camino” o “Vino con queso sabe a beso”– a canciones como la que popularizó Manolo Escobar que decía: “Viva el vino y las mujeres”. Rafael Farina cantaba al “vino amargo el que bebo, (…) vino amargo que no da alegría” y Estopa “soy como un vino tinto, que si me tomas en frío engaño, y con los años me hago más listo”. El vino está presente en la mayoría de eventos (institucionales, familiares o sociales) y en la religión cristiana la sangre derramada por Jesucristo es representada por esta bebida. Es decir: en el colectivo popular está presente la cultura vitivinícola de una u otra forma.Filologí

    En la educación superior, los sistemas de gestión de aprendizaje (LMS) se han vuelto fundamentales para facilitar la enseñanza y el aprendizaje en entornos virtuales y mixtos. Sin embargo, su adopción plantea desafíos debido a la falta de interacción y colaboración, aspectos que los medios sociales ofrecen. El estudio revisa la literatura para identificar los factores que influyen en la adopción y uso de LMS con enfoque social en entornos mixtos universitarios. Se emplea una revisión sistemática que permitió descubrir los constructos clave, como satisfacción, utilidad percibida, facilidad de uso percibida, norma subjetiva, actitud e influencia social, entre otras con menor relevancia, mismos que permitirán proponer como trabajo futuro la creación de un modelo de aceptación y uso de LMS con enfoque social en entornos de aprendizaje mixto universitarioIn higher education, learning management systems (LMS) have become central to facilitating teaching and learning in virtual and blended environments. however, their adoption poses challenges due to the lack of interaction and collaboration that social media offer. The study reviews the literature to identify factors that influence the adoption and use of socially focused LMS in blended university environments. A systematic review is used to uncover key constructs such as satisfaction, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, subjective norm, attitude and social influence, among others of lesser relevance, which will allow future work to propose the creation of a model for the acceptance and use of socially-focused LMS in university blended learning environment

    Perception of Civil Society on the Curricular Integration of Media Competence: Challenges and Opportunities in Latin America

    No full text
    Media Competence (MC) enables citizens to efficiently utilize information and communication technologies, for both consuming and producing content, in order to participate in digital society in a responsible and reflective manner. Its integration in the curriculum requires inter-sectorial collaboration, which includes not only education authorities, but also key actors such as Civil Society Organizations (CSO). The present study examines the perception of CSO with regard to the integration of MC in the curriculum of basic education in Latin American countries. For this, a survey was designed that was stored in a digital platform. It was completed by 63 CSO from fourteen different countries. The main findings indicate that: a) the CSO recognize the importance of teaching MC and the associated challenges, such as the digital divide, the lack of political will, and the lack of understanding of the concept by the population in general; and b) they contribute through the creation of education resources and the teaching of classes for teachers and other vulnerable groups; however, it is crucial to strengthen the network of collaboration with other groups of interest, prioritize MC in their agendas, and ensure that CSO receive training in this areaFunding for open access publishing: Universidad de Huelva/CBUA.

    Impurity Behavior in Cast Copper Anodes: Implications for Electrorefining in a Circular Economy

    No full text
    The behavior of impurities in cast copper was investigated to simulate production with increased utilization of secondary sources within the framework of a circular economy. The incorporation of impurities, particularly Ni, Sn, and Sb, from recycled Cu may significantly impact the electrorefining process. In this study, commercial anodes were doped with Ni, Sn, and Sb concentrations of 2500–6500 g/t, 300–900 g/t, and 450–950 g/t, respectively. Anode concentrations of Pb and Bi were maintained at 1000 g/t and 350 g/t, respectively. As concentrations were examined at two levels, 860 or 1700 g/t, depending on the commercial anode used to create the doped samples. Electron microscopy with microprobe analysis revealed that the commercial anodes contained three predominant phases: Cu2O, (Cu,Ag)2(Se,Te), and a complex oxide phase of Cu, Pb, As, Sb, and/or Bi. Ni, the main impurity, primarily accumulated within the Cu grains, while Sn and Sb tended to form oxidized inclusions. The distribution of Ni in Cu grains was ca. 20% lower in the anodes doped at higher Ni concentrations due to the formation of nickel-bearing inclusions, such as Kupferglimmer and NiO. The doped anodes showed lower quantities of Cu2O inclusions than the commercial anodes due to the preferential formation of oxides with other impurities, including SnO2. These findings highlight potential challenges for Cu electrorefining in a circular economy, as Ni, Sb, and Sn may impact the deportment of these impurities to slimes or electrolyte and may cause copper depletion in the refining electrolyte.This research was funded by University of Huelva grant number 2019.Química "Profesor José Carlos Vílchez Martín"CIQS

    Sexuality training. A factor associated with the prevention of LGTBI violence among baccalaureate students

    No full text
    La violencia que se ejerce en el ámbito escolar hacia el alumnado LGTBI es un problema que vulnera el derecho a la educación, contribuyendo a la exclusión escolar y social. El estudio realizado pretende conocer cómo la formación en sexualidad influye en la aparición de diferentes formas de violencia hacia este colectivo, desde la perspectiva del rol de espectador, agresor, defensor ante la presencia de violencia y víctima. Han participado 624 estudiantes de Bachillerato pertenecientes a 10 IES de la provincia de Huelva. La metodología empleada ha sido de naturaleza cuantitativa, con un enfoque descriptivo, utilizando el método de encuesta a través de la aplicación de dos escalas, una tipo Likert y otra dicotómica. Para conocer qué variables podían ser predictoras de las distintas formas de violencia se obtuvo un modelo de clasificación a través de árboles de decisión aplicando el método CHAID. También se han aplicado pruebas paramétricas para comprobar si existen diferencias significativas entre variables. Los resultados revelan que existen manifestaciones de violencia hacia el colectivo LGTBI en estudiantes de Bachillerato, siendo el rol de espectador el que alcanza mayor porcentaje. Así mismo, se ha detectado que la formación es una variable que condiciona la aparición de violencia o acoso y que influye en las actitudes hacia el colectivo, siendo las mujeres las que presentan mejores puntuaciones. Se nos plantea el desafío de crear tiempos y espacios en los centros para trabajar estos temas, utilizando referentes adecuados que ayuden a visibilizar y compartir esta realidadViolence against LGTBI students in the school environment is a problem that breaches the right to education, contributing to school and social exclusion. The study aims to determine how training in sexuality influences the appearance of different forms of violence towards this group, from the perspective of the role of spectator, aggressor and defender in the presence of violence and victim. The study population consisted of 624 baccalaureate students from 10 secondary schools in Huelva province. The methodology used has been quantitative nature, with a descriptive approach, using the survey method through the application of two scales, one Likert type and another dichotomous. To determine which variables could be predictors of the different forms of violence towards these students, a classification model was obtained through decision trees applying the CHAID method. Parametric tests were also applied to check for significant differences between variables. The outcomes reveal manifestations of violence towards the LGTBI collective among baccalaureate students, with the role of spectator being the one that reached the highest percentage. Likewise, it was detected that training is a variable that conditions the appearance of violence or harassment and which influences attitudes towards the group, with women having the highest scores. We are challenged to create times and spaces in schools to work on these issues, using appropriate references that help to make this reality visible and share itEste trabajo se enmarca dentro del proyecto de investigación "LGTBIfobia: investigación e intervención en alumnado de la Universidad de Huelva", proyecto aprobado en la Convocatoria de Proyectos de Innovación Docente e Investigación Educativa 2022/2023 del Vicerrectorado de Innovación y Empleabilidad de la Universidad de HuelvaPedagogí
