Escenarios hipotéticos sobre la reproducción humana en el arte especulativo
No full textThe communicative dimension in artistic practice, which enables a space for dialogue that activates processes of interpretation, reflection, and social participation, finds an ideal context in speculative art. Through fictional narratives, prototypes, and simulations linked to technology, it encourages the public to confront the improbable, awakening their critical capacity in relation to reality. In a context marked by scientific and technological advances, human reproduction becomes an area of investigation for speculative art. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to analyze the works of women artists within the speculative realm who address human reproduction. The main result reveals shared narratives that refer to genetic modification, the mechanization of the gestation process through artificial wombs, shared parenting based on economic factors, the instrumentalization of the female body, and the hybridization between humans and animals. From the perspective of women’s experiences, these works invite reflection on the future, challenging traditional concepts of gender, identity, motherhood, family, and the relationships between the natural and the artificial. They propose new scenarios dominated by modification, intervention, and control, prompting the public to question the ethical, social, economic, and political implications of scientific and technological intervention in human reproduction.En un contexto marcado por los avances científicos y tecnológicos, la reproducción humana deviene en un área de investigación para el arte especulativo. Por ello, el propósito de este trabajo consiste en analizar obras de mujeres artistas enmarcadas dentro del ámbito especulativo que abordan la reproducción humana. Las principales narrativas representadas se refieren a la modificación genética, la mecanización del proceso de gestación mediante úteros artificiales, la crianza compartida fundamentada en factores económicos, la instrumentalización del cuerpo femenino y la hibridación entre lo humano y animal. Desde la experiencia de las mujeres, estas obras invitan a reflexionar acerca del futuro, desafiando conceptos tradicionales sobre el género, la identidad, la maternidad, la familia y las relaciones entre lo natural y lo artificial. Plantean nuevos escenarios dominados por la modificación, la intervención y el control, que invitan a la audiencia a cuestionar las implicaciones éticas, sociales, económicas y políticas de la intervención científico-tecnológica en la reproducción humana
Integración de los valores sociales en los deportes tradicionales Minangkabau en los materiales de enseñanza de sociología para la formación del carácter de los estudiantes
No full textThis study explored the character education values embedded in traditional children's sports games within Minangkabau ethnic culture and examined how these values can be integrated into high school Sociology teaching materials. The aim was to deepen understanding of how culture influences students' character development, thereby emphasizing the cultural role in shaping moral and social behavior. A qualitative approach was employed. Data were collected from five active high school Sociology teachers, three traditional sports experts, and two Minangkabau cultural specialists, selected through purposive sampling. Data collection methods included observation, interviews, and document analysis. The analysis was conducted using Zhang’s semantic analysis and the interactive model by Miles and Huberman, involving data collection, reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. Findings revealed that five traditional Minangkabau games—Sipak Rago, Mancik-Mancik, Kuciang-Kuciang, Sipak Tekong, and Cak Bur—contain key character values such as honesty, justice, discipline, and care. Integration into Sociology teaching occurs in two stages: (1) identifying and formulating character values with a systematic link to norms, and (2) embedding local Minangkabau values into teaching materials, considering cognitive, affective, and psychomotor learning domains. This approach underscores the importance of value-based content that actively engages students in the learning process.Este estudio tiene como objetivo explorar los valores de educación cívica presentes en los juegos deportivos tradicionales, específicamente los juegos infantiles dentro de la cultura étnica Minangkabau, e integrar estos valores en los materiales de enseñanza de Sociología a nivel de educación secundaria. El propósito es proporcionar una comprensión más profunda de cómo la cultura influye en el desarrollo del carácter de los estudiantes, destacando así el papel de la cultura en la formación del carácter estudiantil. Este estudio emplea un enfoque cualitativo. Las fuentes de datos incluyen a profesores de Sociología, expertos en deportes tradicionales y especialistas en la cultura Minangkabau. La selección de informantes se realizó mediante muestreo intencional. Las técnicas de recolección de datos incluyeron observación, entrevistas y estudios documentales. La validez de los datos se probó mediante triangulación, que implicó la verificación cruzada de los datos a través del tiempo, las fuentes y los métodos. El análisis de los datos se realizó utilizando el análisis semántico de Zhang y el modelo de análisis interactivo de Miles y Huberman, que incluye la recolección de datos, la reducción de datos, la presentación de los datos y la formulación de conclusiones. Los resultados del estudio muestran que los valores de carácter identificados en cinco deportes tradicionales Minangkabau—Sipak Rago, Mancik-Mancik, Kuciang-Kuciang, Sipak Tekong y Cak Bur—contienen valores como la honestidad, la equidad, la disciplina y el cuidado. La integración de los valores de carácter en los juegos deportivos tradicionales se lleva a cabo en dos etapas: (1) Identificación de los valores de carácter y formulación de estos valores, asegurando que haya una relación sistemática y organizada entre los valores y las normas; y (2) Integración de los valores locales Minangkabau encontrados en los juegos deportivos tradicionales con los materiales de enseñanza de Sociología, considerando los tres dominios del aprendizaje: cognitivo, afectivo y psicomotor. Esta integración enfatiza la importancia de los valores y el contenido que involucra activamente a los estudiantes en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaj

Whey protein: How does it affect the increase in muscle mass of untrained athletes post weight training?
Get PDFWeight training is a type of exercise that can provide many benefits for the body. Apart from exercise programs, the nutritional intake consumed also influences the success of building muscle through weight training. Protein is the main element that influences muscle growth and development after doing weight training. This experimental study used a pretest-posttest control group design to examine the effect of whey protein on muscle hypertrophy. It involved 60 male student athletes from Padang, Indonesia, aged 18-25 with a BMI of 25-29, physically healthy, and willing to follow research guidelines. The experimental group (n = 30) was given whey protein 30 minutes after weight training as much as ± 45 grams while the control group (n = 30) was only given mineral water after weight training. Muscle hypertrophy was measured using a measuring tape and skinfold calipers. Muscle circumference was calculated using the formula: MTC − (3.14 × TSF), where MTC is the muscle circumference and TSF is the triceps skinfold thickness. The results indicated that the group consuming whey protein experienced a significantly greater increase in muscle circumference compared to the control group (p<0.05). Based on research findings, planned and structured weight training combined with whey protein supplementation can maximize muscle hypertrophy compared to training without whey protein
Shaping student motivation to participate in sporting activities through educational psychology: Insights from a case study at Hanoi Metropolitan University
Get PDFThis study investigated the impact of educational psychology on students' physical activity habits at Hanoi Metropolitan University. The research aimed to analyze psychological factors influencing motivation for physical activity, evaluate the role of teaching styles in physical education, identify barriers to physical activity participation, and propose solutions to help students maintain exercise habits. Using a mixed-methods approach, a survey was conducted with 300 students (135 male, 165 female) to measure motivation for physical activity, perceptions of instructor support, and levels of sports participation, while 30 students were interviewed in-depth to understand the influence of instructors, peer and social media impacts, and personal obstacles. The results indicate that students with higher intrinsic motivation tend to maintain physical activity more effectively, while autonomy-supportive teaching methods enhance motivation and long-term commitment to sports. However, barriers such as academic pressure, lack of sports facilities, and psychological stress negatively affect students' engagement in physical activity. The study concludes that integrating educational psychology principles, such as autonomy-supportive teaching, creating an encouraging environment for physical activity, and leveraging social influences, can help students develop sustainable exercise habits
Theoretical and methodological foundations of the development of special endurance in freestyle wrestling among qualified student-athletes
Get PDFThis study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a newly developed training program for freestyle wrestling athletes. The quantitative research was conducted with 48 student athletes of freestyle wrestling. The training program was divided into two main components: 1) Physical fitness training, tailored to address the specific needs of athletes across seven weight categories: 55 kg (121.25 lbs), 60 kg (132.25 lbs), 66 kg (145.5 lbs), 74 kg (163 lbs), 84 kg (185 lbs), 96 kg (211.5 lbs), and 120 kg (264.5 lbs). 2) Cognitive skills training, focused on enhancing motivation and self-confidence. The program was implemented over a three-month period, with performance measurements taken at two points: before (pre-training) and after (post-training) the intervention. The second phase of the program emphasized cognitive development, specifically targeting motivation and self-confidence. The results showed that there is a positive correlation between athletes’ physical abilities, techniques, endurance, stamina, motivation, and self-confidence with their overall performance (p<0.05). Furthermore, a significant improvement was observed in athlete performance following the completion of the training program (p<0.05). In conclusion, both physical fitness and cognitive skills are critical for improving the performance of freestyle wrestling athletes
Effect of manual therapy versus kinesio taping on tension-type headache in Jouf University female students: A randomized controlled trial
Get PDFThis study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of manual therapy versus Kinesio taping (KT) in treating tension-type headaches (TTH) as they are the most common complaint among university students, significantly impacting their academic performance. A randomized controlled study was conducted, including 45 female students. They were 18-25 years, divided into three groups. The first group (Manual therapy) received manual therapy and relaxation training, the second group (KT) received KT every 72 hours and relaxation exercises while the third group (Control) received relaxation exercises, all for three times/week for 8 weeks. The primary outcome was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for headache intensity. The secondary measure was the HIT-6 to evaluate the impact of TTH. Post-treatment, all three groups showed a significant reduction in VAS scores compared to pre-treatment (p<0.05). HIT-6 scores significantly decreased in the manual therapy and KT groups (p<0.05), whereas the control group showed no significant change (p>0.05). Additionally, the manual therapy group showed a significantly greater reduction in VAS scores compared to the KT group (p<0.05), although no discernible change was observed in HIT-6 scores (p>0.05). Both manual therapy and KT are useful for treating TTH. However, manual treatment alleviates pain intensity more effectively

El impacto del informe de auditoría ampliado en la financiación bancaria de las Pymes: The impact of the expanded audit report content on SMEs’ bank financing
No full textStandard setters and regulators have gradually changed the form and content of audit reports to enhance their clarity and comprehensibility, aiming to reduce the expectation gap. This research investigates the perceived usefulness of the latest expanded audit report (EAR), focusing on the evaluation of its key sections, within the context of bank financing. Additionally, the study explores the potential impact on credit granting decisions, particularly in relation to the accessibility, processing times and financing conditions for SMEs. A structural equation modelling (SEM) methodology was employed to analyse the responses of 225 bank loan officers to a self-administered online questionnaire. The results show that the perception that the audit service is useful has a positive impact on credit granting (access, time and conditions), but it is only influenced by the Opinion section. Basis of Opinion, Other Information and Key Audit Matters (KAM) sections do not appear to be significant. Consequently, additional audit report extensions should be carefully considered before making new decisions, as they are not necessarily perceived as informative.Los emisores de normas y los reguladores han cambiado gradualmente la forma y el contenido de los informes de auditoría para mejorar su claridad y comprensibilidad, con el objetivo de reducir la brecha de expectativas. Este trabajo investiga la utilidad percibida del último informe de auditoría ampliado, centrándose en la evaluación de sus secciones clave, dentro del contexto de la financiación bancaria. Además, el estudio explora el impacto potencial en las decisiones de concesión de crédito, particularmente en relación con la accesibilidad, los tiempos de procesamiento y las condiciones de financiación para las PYMEs. Para analizar las respuestas de 225 oficiales de crédito bancario a un cuestionario en línea autoadministrado, se empleó una metodología basada en ecuaciones estructurales (SEM). Los resultados muestran que la percepción de que el servicio de auditoría es útil tiene un impacto positivo en la concesión del crédito (acceso, tiempo y condiciones), pero sólo está influenciado por el apartado de Opinión. Las secciones Fundamento de la opinión, Otra información y Cuestiones clave de auditoría (CCA) no parecen ser significativas. En consecuencia, las extensiones adicionales de los informes de auditoría deben considerarse cuidadosamente antes de tomar nuevas decisiones, ya que no necesariamente se perciben como informativas
Un análisis cienciométrico de la estructura temática y análisis del mapeo de convergencia de la educación médica.
Get PDFThis study investigates the thematic structure and conceptual dynamics of research in medical education using scientometric and network analysis approaches. Despite the growing volume of literature in this field, few studies have comprehensively mapped its evolving patterns and interdisciplinary connections. To address this gap, a descriptive-analytical method was employed, focusing on two time periods: 2001–2010 and 2016–2025. Articles indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database formed the statistical population, selected due to WoS’s comprehensive and interdisciplinary coverage. A keyword-based search strategy was developed through expert consultation and refined with artificial intelligence tools. Data from over 56,000 articles were collected, cleaned, and standardized using PreMap Ravar software. Core keywords were identified through Bradford’s law, and thematic structures were visualized using VOSviewer, Ucinet, and NetDraw software. The study analyzed word co-occurrence patterns, thematic clusters, and centrality indices to uncover key research areas and conceptual shifts over time. Findings reveal a growing interdisciplinary trend in medical education, with increasing integration of fields such as information technology, management, and artificial intelligence. Emerging topics include virtual education, simulation, evidence-based learning, and interprofessional collaboration.
