Aproximación a la nueva gobernanza para el desarrollo glocal sostenible: estudio de caso Santander de Quilichao (Cauca, Colombia)
No full textLa presente investigación se centra en el marco del desarrollo local, considerando las particularidades de un territorio inmerso en grandes complejidades y contradicciones sociales que, incluso, han sido generadoras de violencia por más de 60 años. El propósito se centró en realizar un análisis macro de las condiciones para el desarrollo glocal sostenible, a través de un estudio con enfoque cualitativo y cuantitativo, que permitió contrastar las visiones institucionales y comunitarias sobre la gobernanza actual, la implementación de los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible y la articulación con la implementación del proceso de paz, en el municipio de Santander de Quilichao, departamento del Cauca Colombia. Del mismo modo, se realizó un análisis micro para identificar nuevas aportaciones a la gobernanza glocal sostenible, soportado en la propuesta teórica que emergió en el desarrollo de esta investigación que hemos llamado Aproximación a la Nueva Gobernanza para el Desarrollo Glocal Sostenible.The research focuses on the framework of local development, considering the particularities of a territory immersed in great complexities and social contradictions that have generated violence for more than 60 years. A macro analysis of the conditions for sustainable glocal development and a micro analysis to identify new contributions to sustainable glocal governance was carried out, through a study with a qualitative and quantitative approach, which allowed to contrast the institutional and community visions on current governance, the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals and the articulation with the implementation of the peace process, in Santander de Quilichao Cauca Colombia. One of the main conclusions is that it is necessary to strengthen citizen participation, civic and formal education, especially among youth, as future leaders and managers of sustainable glocal governance processes, in pursuit of the common good and social well-being.Programa de Doctorat en Desenvolupament Local i Cooperació Internaciona
Anatomía de un “sarampión travesti”. La categoría de transexualidad y las representaciones de mujeres trans en el discurso social de la Transición española
No full textDoctorat internacionalEl presente trabajo estudia la recepción de la categoría de transexualidad y las representaciones de mujeres trans en el discurso social de la Transición en español y catalán, un periodo en el que se dio una presencia masiva de estas identidades en lo que hemos calificado como el "sarampión travesti”. Desde la óptica de los estudios culturales y los estudios de género —más concretamente, los estudios trans—, nos centramos en analizar una serie de objetos culturales de carácter endógeno y exógeno que, entre 1976 y 1983, tematizaron la experiencia trans y en los que existe un diálogo explícito con la entonces “nueva” categoría médica. El trabajo concluye que su recepción en España se produjo en unas condiciones muy particulares, alejada generalmente de la institución médica en la que había nacido en otros contextos nacionales, lo que propició su transformación y, en consecuencia, una mayor ductilidad como término de identificación.This doctoral dissertation studies the reception of the category of transsexuality and the representations of trans women in the social discourse in Spanish and Catalan during the Transition period. This was a crucial time, as it marked the first mass presence of these identities in what we have termed the ‘sarampión travesti.’ From the perspective of cultural studies and gender studies –and more specifically, trans studies – it focuses on analysing a series of cultural objects -novels, films and newspapers-, both endogenous and exogenous, that between 1976 and 1983 addressed the trans experience in that period and explicitly engaged with the then “new” medical category. The thesis concludes that the reception of the medical category in Spain occurred under very particular conditions, generally removed from the medical institution where it had originated in other national contexts.Programa de Doctorat en Llengües Aplicades, Literatura i Traducci
The role of translation in the memoirs of Joan F. Mira
No full text[CA] Joan F. Mira és un escriptor que s’ha mogut amb gran facilitat per diferents gèneres i subgèneres literaris, des de la novel·la o la narrativa curta a l’assaig polític, la recerca antropològica, la biografia o la columna periodística. Així mateix, la traducció ha format part també de la seva producció de manera gairebé continuada. En aquesta estudi em plantejo analitzar la presència de les traduccions —d’algunes de les traduccions— que Joan F. Mira ha fet al llarg de la seva dilatada trajectòria en els dos volums que conformen la seva obra memorialística: El tramvia groc (2013) i Tots els camins (2020). Aquesta aproximació, feta en el context de la intertextualitat, resulta interessant des de diferents punts de vista. D’una banda, i en el cas d’un intel·lectual que no s’ha hagut de dedicar a la traducció pro pane lucrando, cal considerar el valor que representa la tria de les obres que es decideix a traduir: l’elecció per afinitats estilístiques, entre altres motius. De l’altra, l’impacte que la traducció en general i les obres traduïdes en particular hagi pogut tenir en l’obra pròpia. Tot plegat, ens pot donar noves claus interpretatives de l’obra d’aquest autor cabdal.[EN] Joan F. Mira is a writer who has wound his way through a series of literary genres and subgenres - from novel to short fiction, political essay, anthropological investigation, biography to newspaper column. Translation has also formed an almost continuous part of his output. In this study, I intend to analyse the presence of the translations — some translations at least — produced by Mira in the course of his long career in the two volumes that make up his memoirs: El tramvia groc (2013) and Tots els camins (2020). This approach, effected from within the framework of intertextuality, may prove of interest from a number of perspectives. On the one hand, in the case of an intellectual who had no need to devote himself to translation pro pane lucrando, we might consider the value of the selection of work decided upon – stylistic affinity, amongst other reasons. On the other, there is the case of the impact that translation in general and the translated works in particular may have had on his own work. All in all, the subject can afford new means to interpret the work of this major author.Aquest treball s’ha fet en el marc dels projectes de recerca «La construcció discursiva del conflicte: territorialitat, imatge de la malaltia i identitats de gènere en la literatura i en la comunicació social» (FFI2017-85227-R), del Ministeri d’Economia, Indústria i Competitivitat del Govern d’Espanya, i «Anàlisi crítica de les estratègies narratives amb aplicació preferent a l’àmbit sociocultural valencià contemporani» (UJI-B22-2021), de la Universitat Jaume I
Transdisciplinarity in Education: A Narrative Review of Its Didactic Validity and Contributions to Sustainable Learning
No full textThis paper explores the current state of the concept of transdisciplinarity at both theoretical and literary levels, with a particular focus on its development in education through a narrative review. It examines the didactic validity of this concept and its potential to contribute to sustainable education by addressing the complex challenges of the 21st century. The review identifies how transdisciplinarity enables the integration of diverse forms of knowledge and connects abstract learning with meaningful, context-based experiences for students. This perspective fosters inclusion, critical thinking, and social responsibility—competencies that appear to form a promising and increasingly supported paradigm for sustainability. A narrative review of forty-one sources was conducted across Scopus, Scielo, Dialnet, and Google Scholar, focusing on educational applications of transdisciplinarity. Furthermore, the study situates transdisciplinary education as an effective and transformative framework aligned with international educational principles such as Universal Design for Learning (UDL), the European Key Competences, and the Sustainable Development Goals
Porn[Time]: study of cognitive processes related to problematic pornography use
No full textCompendi d'articles, Doctorat internacionalCurrently, pornography consumption is one of the most prevalent online activities, increasing scientific interest in understanding its effects. In particular, the possibility of developing a pattern of abusive consumption, i.e., problematic pornography use (PPU), is one of the main concern. Therefore, in recent years, part of the literature has focused on the study of the mechanisms and factors involved in the onset and maintenance of PPU. However, evidence remains scarce, especially regarding the involvement of cognitive processes. This doctoral thesis aims to shed light on this issue by studying the involvement and etiological role of attentional inhibitory control, time perception processes, and subjective sexual arousal in PPU and other online problematic behaviors: gaming disorder and problematic binge-watching. Some of the main findings question the theoretical premises that place cognitive and executive processes as central etiopathological factors in problematic online behavior.Programa de Doctorat en Psicologi

Artificial intelligence-based technologies to reduce loneliness and improve social connectedness in older people: a systematic review
No full textBackground and Objectives: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is undergoing a paradigm shift in its application to healthcare, particularly in the context of ageing-related care, with significant implications for disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. The integration of advanced machine learning, deep neural networks, and natural language processing has enabled AI to analyze datasets with remarkable accuracy, surpassing the performance of traditional methods. AI-driven approaches have the potential to facilitate early disease detection, predict progression, and personalize treatments, optimizing healthcare resources. Furthermore, AI is contributing to the development of new treatments and supporting public health strategies. The objective is to assess the effectiveness of AI-based interventions for loneliness. Research Design and Methods: This article presents a systematic review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses methodology. Databases searched were PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and PsycInfo. A total of 19 articles were identified fulfilling the inclusion criteria, and using validated tools to assess loneliness. Studies were summarized indicating: country, sample, design of the study, measures of loneliness, the AI-based technology main findings and implications. Results: Findings highlight AI’s potential to enhance social well-being among older adults. From a policy perspective, AI-driven analytics enable targeted interventions by identifying trends in age-related health and social issues from the psychology of social intervention. The adoption of AI in ageing policies promotes efficient, inclusive frameworks that support healthy ageing and reduce pressure on traditional healthcare systems. Discussion and Implications: This study contributes to the growing evidence supporting AI’s role in addressing loneliness and improving overall quality of life in ageing populations

Eficacia y seguridad de la colonoscopia asistida por ENDOCUFF VISION® vs. Colonoscopia estándar en el programa de cribado de cáncer colorrectal: ensayo clínico aleatorizado, prospectivo, multicéntrico, abierto y de grupos paralelos.
No full textSe evaluó la efectividad y seguridad de la colonoscopia asistida por Endocuff Vision comparada con la colonoscopia estándar en los pacientes del programa nacional de cribado de cáncer colorrectal. Se realizó un ensayo clínico aleatorizado, prospectivo, multicéntrico, abierto y de grupos paralelos entre noviembre 2020-octubre 2021 en 5 centros en España. Se incluyeron pacientes que presentaban un test de sangre oculta positivo previo. Se aleatorizaron en dos grupos según se realizara la colonoscopia estándar (SC) o utilizando Endocuff Vision (EVAC). El objetivo principal era evaluar la tasa de detección de adenomas (TDA). Se incluyeron un total de 822 pacientes (410 EVAC y 412 SC). La TDA fue significativamente mayor en el grupo EVAC (59,8% vs 51%; p=0,02). Hubo 11 colonoscopias incompletas en cada grupo (2,7% frente a 2,7%; p=0,99). No se observaron diferencias en los efectos adversos (0,24% frente a 0,24%).Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening aims to detect precancerous lesions to reduce interval cancer incidence. Colonoscopy is the standard diagnostic technique, but some lesions may be missed. Endocuff Vision® is a device designed to improve colonic mucosa visibility. This study evaluated its effectiveness and safety compared to standard colonoscopy within the Spanish national CRC screening program. A randomized, multicenter, prospective clinical trial was conducted with 822 patients aged 50–70 years with a positive fecal occult blood test. Patients were assigned to undergo either Endocuff Vision-assisted colonoscopy (EVAC) or standard colonoscopy (SC). The adenoma detection rate was significantly higher in the EVAC group (59.8% vs. 51%; p=0.02). There were no differences in incomplete colonoscopies or adverse events between groups. In conclusion, Endocuff Vision improves adenoma detection without increasing risks, contributing to a reduction in interval CRC cases.Programa de Doctorat en Ciències Biomèdiques i Salu
