Identification of the types of strategies for the development of social competencies in virtual environments of management students in colombian universities
No full textThe present study is directed towards the identification of the types of strategies for the development of social competences in virtual environments of administration students at Colombian universities. The sample is taken from a group of 25 teachers, who teach in the business administration program of a private university located in the city of Barranquilla, Colombia. A questionnaire consisting of a total of 15 items applied to this sample, which was validated by experts and its reliability was determined by means of the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, yielding a value of 0.84. Thus, the results show the indicators of the dimension Types of strategies for the development of social competence, which in turn are organized into indicators as follows: Pre-instructional Strategies, Co-instructional Strategies and Post-instructional Strategies. Each of these indicators obtained a respective weighting of 2.89, 3.35 and 2.40. In relation to the teaching strategies for the development of social competence, which constitute the object of study of the research presented, low frequencies were obtained for this variable in its two dimensions, which reveals that the teachers in the sample exhibit low levels of application of these strategies in the classroom. This situation highlights the need to train students in this type of competencies, given their impact on the achievement of school success
Complex trends in the construction of legal knowledge and law
No full textEn el mundo científico actual del S. XXI, las ciencias sociales al igual que en otros campos de conocimiento se intensifican en sus abordajes en una complejidad e incertidumbre que requiere la necesaria y múltiple interrelación entre las diferentes áreas del conocimiento. Esta dinámica se produce desde las propias situaciones, realidades y problemáticas que son abordadas tanto teórica como metódicamente en el estudio jurídico, del derecho, de las ciencias afines y entre ellas mismas de manera colaborativa. En ese orden de ideas, el derecho tiene que mostrarse en el relacionamiento adyacente entre disciplinas, reconociendo estas interrelaciones con el objeto de generar nuevas categorías y sistemas, ciencia compleja, diversa, oportuna, autoregulativa, para generar y divulgar con impacto el conocimiento científico que se deriva.In the current scientific world of the 21st century, social sciences, as in other fields of knowledge, are intensifying their approaches to complexity and uncertainty that require the necessary and multiple interrelationships between the different areas of knowledge. This dynamic is produced from the situations, realities, and problems addressed theoretically and methodically in the legal study of law, related sciences, and among themselves collaboratively. In this order of ideas, law has to be shown in the adjacent relationship between disciplines, recognizing these interrelations to generate new categories and systems, complex, diverse, timely, self-regulating science, to generate and disseminate the scientific knowledge derived with impact
Global, regional, and national incidence of six major immune-mediated inflammatory diseases: findings from the global burden of disease study 2019
No full textBackground: The causes for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) are diverse and the incidence trends of IMIDs from specific causes are rarely studied. The study aims to investigate the pattern and trend of IMIDs from 1990 to 2019. Methods: We collected detailed information on six major causes of IMIDs, including asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis, between 1990 and 2019, derived from the Global Burden of Disease study in 2019. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in number of incidents and age standardized incidence rate (ASR) on IMIDs, by sex, age, region, and causes, were calculated to quantify the temporal trends. Findings: In 2019, rheumatoid arthritis, atopic dermatitis, asthma, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease accounted 1.59%, 36.17%, 54.71%, 0.09%, 6.84%, 0.60% of overall new IMIDs cases, respectively. The ASR of IMIDs showed substantial regional and global variation with the highest in High SDI region, High-income North America, and United States of America. Throughout human lifespan, the age distribution of incident cases from six IMIDs was quite different. Globally, incident cases of IMIDs increased with an AAPC of 0.68 and the ASR decreased with an AAPC of −0.34 from 1990 to 2019. The incident cases increased across six IMIDs, the ASR of rheumatoid arthritis increased (0.21, 95% CI 0.18, 0.25), while the ASR of asthma (AAPC = −0.41), inflammatory bowel disease (AAPC = −0.72), multiple sclerosis (AAPC = −0.26), psoriasis (AAPC = −0.77), and atopic dermatitis (AAPC = −0.15) decreased. The ASR of overall and six individual IMID increased with SDI at regional and global level. Countries with higher ASR in 1990 experienced a more rapid decrease in ASR. Interpretation: The incidence patterns of IMIDs varied considerably across the world. Innovative prevention and integrative management strategy are urgently needed to mitigate the increasing ASR of rheumatoid arthritis and upsurging new cases of other five IMIDs, respectively. Funding: The Global Burden of Disease Study is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Objective: To propose a battery of tests designed and validated to evaluate physical fitness in university students with visual impairment. Methodology: Mixed approach, triangulation-concurrent design. The participants were six experts, using the double-blind method, and 12 students. A literature review was carried out by means of a selection of abstracts, and expert opinions were received by means of a checklist and a SWOT matrix. Results: Twelve field tests were adapted with the aim of evaluating certain manifestations of conditional physical capacities. The battery obtained scores of 90.2% in the objectivity index, 89% in reliability, 85.5% in validity and 89.7% in protocol-adaptation. The experts considered that the tests were adequately structured and designed according to the objectives of each test and the battery, and that the tests selected were practical and consistent with the characteristics of the target population. They suggested explaining better the protocol-adaptation component, especially for the speed and endurance tests. A pilot application of the battery was carried out. Conclusion: Positive and close quantitative indexes were obtained for all the battery assessment criteria, and the experts’ rating was homogeneous in most cases. The experts highlighted several positive aspects of the initial design of the battery; based on their suggestions, certain protocol-adaptation adjustments were made to improve the final design. The piloting allowed establishing specifications to regulate the participation of a sighted guide to guide visually-impaired students in the speed and endurance tests
Efficient removal of naproxen from aqueous solution by highly porous activated carbon produced from Grapetree (Plinia cauliflora) fruit peles
No full textIn this work, jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora) fruit peels were pyrolyzed in the presence of zinc chloride to generate a novel porous adsorbent to remove naproxen (NPX) from aqueous solutions. The maximum adsorption capacity of the activated carbon for NPX was 167.03 mg g−1, achieved at 328 K. This remarkable result might be mainly assigned to the pore characteristics, such as high surface area (1033 m2 g−1) and large pore volume (0.520 cm3 g−1). The Langmuir model was the one that obtained the best values of statistical coefficients, indicating the occurrence of surface saturation. The adsorption process occurred spontaneously under endothermic conditions. The experimental adsorption kinetics was well described by the linear driving force model (qexp = 128.72 mg g−1; qpred = 130.80 mg g−1). The porous material showed high efficiency against a synthetic mixture containing various drugs and salts, removing 86.79%. Therefore, the activated carbon sample obtained from jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora) fruit peels may be employed as an alternative adsorbent to treat wastewater-containing drugs effectively.georgin, jordana-will be generated-orcid-0000-0003-1692-565X-600da Boit Martinello, KátiaFranco, Dison S.

Morphology, composition and mixing state of individual airborne particles: effects of the 2017 Action Plan in Beijing, China
No full textBeijing is one of the most important Chinese megacities with extremely serious air pollution problems and human health impacts. In response to the air pollution the central and municipal governments of China have implemented a series of actions; one of which is the “Action Plan for Comprehensive Prevention and Control of Autumn and Winter Air Pollution in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Surrounding Areas 2017–2018” (the Action Plan) issued in 2017. The morphology, composition and mixing state of individual particles collected after the Action Plan was implemented were analyzed by high resolution-transmission electron microscopy coupled with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (TEM-EDX). The relative percentages of different individual particle types and the main sources of the particulate pollution before and after the Action Plan were compared. The results showed that sulfur was most frequently detected in the individual particles, and the particle types were mainly composed of soot aggregates, mineral particles, organic particles, metal particles, coal fly ashes, sulfate particles, and mixture particles. The mixture and sulfate particles dominated in the autumn samples, both for the haze and non-haze days. In winter the mineral and mixture particles dominated in samples for the non-haze days, while mixture particles and sulfate dominated in the samples for the haze days. The mixture particles in autumn were mainly the soot aggregates internally mixed with sulfate (S-soot type), while the mixture particles in winter were mainly the S-soot type and the mineral particles internally mixed with sulfate (S-mineral type). After the Action Plan, the relative percentages of sulfate particles, organic particles, and soot aggregates increased, while the relative percentages of mineral particles, metal particles and fly ashes decreased. The contribution from coal-fired sources was reduced significantly as evidenced by the decrease in the fly ash particles. The vehicle emissions and secondary reaction of particulate matter became the main sources of atmospheric particulate matters as evidenced by increase in sulfate particles, organic particles, and soot aggregates. The results presented in this study will assist in other plans to improve air quality and human health in megacities around the world.Shao, Longyi-will be generated-orcid-0000-0001-9975-6091-600Li, JieZhang, MengyuanWang, XinmingLi, YaoweiJones, TimFeng, XiaoleiSilva Oliveira, Luis FelipeLi, Wenju
Responsabilidad social del marketing en una cadena de supermercados de la ciudad de Barranquilla
No full textSocial responsibility in marketing refers to the practice of companies of considering and
addressing the ethical, social and environmental implications of their marketing activities. It
involves a focus beyond profit maximization and seeks to balance the interests of the company
with those of society as a whole. The present study seeks to evaluate the Social Responsibility of
marketing in a supermarket chain in the city of Barranquilla. The research is framed in a
qualitative approach, with a design focused on a case study and whose scope is descriptive. A
survey was conducted with 191 external clients and 41 internal clients, seeking to know the
perception of the social responsibility marketing practices implemented by the chain through a
questionnaire and based on these results to evaluate the RSM. To collect the information, a web
questionnaire was applied, developed under the dimensions of the RSM elements.
The results of the research showed that the chain must make efforts in some elements of
perceptions; as well as in some aspects of the dimensions such as ethics and social responsibility,
quality of products and services, customer service, advertising and promotion practices and
respect for consumer privacy. Although there is knowledge present in their marketing social
responsibility strategies, there is still a lack of knowledge and tools to become a chain that
manages more effective RSM policies for its customers. Finally, strategies were established
based on these concerns and shortcomings as a recommendation to provide notions for the
initiation in the future of a strategic plan for loyalty and attraction of new customers, with the
objective of maximizing sales and being responsible with the environment. atmosphere.
It is concluded with this research that the perception that customers have regarding the
Social Responsibility of marketing policies implemented by the chain plays a relevant role in building customer loyalty and, in addition, contributes to creating a strong competitive image
compared to its competitors.La responsabilidad social en el marketing se refiere a la práctica de las empresas de
considerar y abordar las implicaciones éticas, sociales y ambientales de sus actividades de
marketing. Implica un enfoque más allá de la maximización de las ganancias y busca equilibrar
los intereses de la empresa con los de la sociedad en su conjunto. El presente estudio busca
evaluar la Responsabilidad social del marketing en una cadena de supermercados en la ciudad de
Barranquilla. La investigación se enmarca en un enfoque cualitativo, con un diseño enfocado en
un estudio de caso y cuyo alcance es descriptivo. Se realizó una encuesta a 191 clientes externos
y 41 clientes internos, buscando conocer la percepción frente a las prácticas de responsabilidad
social del marketing implementadas por la cadena a través de un cuestionario y con base a esos
resultados evaluar la RSM. Para la recolección de la información se aplicó un cuestionario vía
web, desarrollado bajo las dimensiones de los elementos de la RSM.
Los resultados de la investigación arrojaron que la cadena debe realizar esfuerzos en
mejorar algunos aspectos de las dimensiones de la responsabilidad social en el marketing, las
cuales son; ética y responsabilidad social, calidad de los productos y servicios, servicio al cliente,
publicidad y practica de promoción y respeto a la privacidad del consumidor. A pesar de que
haya un conocimiento presente en sus estrategias de responsabilidad social del marketing aún
falta conocimiento y herramientas para convertirse en una cadena que maneje políticas más
efectivas de RSM frente a sus clientes. Finalmente se establecieron estrategias en función de
estas preocupaciones y falencias como una recomendación para dar nociones para la iniciación
en el futuro de un plan estratégico para la fidelización y la atracción de nuevos clientes, con el
objetivo de maximizar las ventas y ser responsables con el medio ambiente. Se concluye con esta investigación que la percepción que tiene los clientes frente a las
políticas de Responsabilidad social del marketing que implementa la cadena juegan un papel
relévate a la hora de fidelizarlos y, además que contribuyen a crear una fuerte imagen
competitiva frente a sus competidores.Lista de tablas y Figuras 9—Introducción 10 --Capítulo 1.
