Multimodal discourse analysis: Practice Session (4 February 2026) (undergraduate)
No full textActividades de práctica de análisis multimodal desde un enfoque sistémico funcional para nivel de grado en Estudios InglesesThese slides correspond to a practice session aiming to:
1. Identify theoretical principles governing multimodal discourse. In this session this refers in particular to verbo-visual (image-language) texts, i.e. to bimodal discourse analysis.
2. Explore meaning in metafunctions (mainly experiential/representational), stratification and intersemiotic relations in multimodal (verbo-visual) narrative text
Asymmetric volatility and regional integration: an EGARCH–GJR analysis of Latin American and European equity markets
No full text[EN]This study analyzes volatility dynamics and regional financial integration in European and Latin American equity markets under heightened global uncertainty and the growing relevance of sustainable finance.
It aims to assess volatility persistence, asymmetric responses to negative information, and the role of
intraregional integration in shock transmission and financial stability.
Design/methodology/approach – Daily equity index returns from representative European and Latin
American markets over 2010–2025 are analyzed using asymmetric GARCH-type models (EGARCH and GJRGARCH)
with skewed innovations. Volatility persistence is measured through model parameters and half-life
indicators, while financial integration is examined using Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC-GARCH)
models. Robustness is evaluated through structural stability tests and pre- and post-COVID-19 comparisons.
Findings – European markets exhibit high volatility persistence but short half-lives (approximately 4–6 days),
indicating faster shock absorption. Latin American markets display longer half-lives (around 8–12 days),
reflecting more persistent volatility. Asymmetric effects are stronger and more systematic in Europe, while Latin
America shows weaker and more heterogeneous responses. Intraregional correlations are extremely high in
Europe, limiting diversification, whereas Latin America remains moderately and unevenly integrated. No
evidence of structural breaks is found.
Originality/value – The study offers a unified long-horizon comparative framework combining asymmetric
GARCH models, half-life measures, dynamic correlations, and stability diagnostics. It provides robust evidence
on structural differences between developed and emerging markets, with implications for investors and
policymakers in financial stability and sustainable finance
Gratitude for the New King. Triumphal chariots, Altars and Other Ornaments in the Procession for Charles IV in the town of San Felipe (Xàtiva) in the Kingdom of Valencia in 1789
No full textThe festivals held in the Valencian town of san Felipe (now Xàtiva) in 1789 for the proclamation of Charles IV deserve an in-depth study that has not yet been undertaken. Of all the celebrations held on that occasion, this article focuses on the thanksgiving procession held on the last day of the festival. Specifically, the focus is on the design and creation of triumphal chariots and altars, as well as the masking of the façades of the main buildings. To this end, we have worked meticulously on the archival documentation, as well as drawing on a visual repertoire, partially unpublished, which highlights the singularity of the case in question. All in all, this article agrees with the research that has found in the festivals and in the artistic manifestations derived from it the way to extol the royal power, counting on the complicity of the people.Las fiestas celebradas el año 1789 en la ciudad valenciana de san Felipe (actual Xàtiva) por la proclamación de Carlos IV merecen un profundo estudio no abordado todavía. De entre todos los festejos organizados para la ocasión, este artículo se centra en la procesión de gracias celebrada el último día festivo. Concretamente, se pone el foco de atención en el diseño y creación de carros triunfales y de altares, así como en el enmascaramiento de las fachadas de edificios principales. Para ello, hemos trabajado minuciosamente la oportuna documentación de archivo, así como nos apoyamos en un repertorio visual, parcialmente inédito, que ponen de manifiesto la singularidad del caso que nos ocupa. Con todo, este artículo concuerda con las investigaciones que han hallado en la fiesta y en las manifestaciones artísticas derivadas de la misma el camino para ensalzar el poder regio, contando con la complicidad del pueblo
The Role of Hydrogen in Energy Communities: Current Status, Challenges, and Future Developments
No full text[EN] Renewable hydrogen has become a versatile technology that can play a key role in the deployment of energy communities, although technological, economic, environmental, legal, and social challenges remain to be addressed. This study conducts a systematic review based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) methodology that analyzes the current state of technologies, the different applications, challenges and limitations, and future lines of research related to the enabling role of hydrogen in energy communities. Results from the bibliometric analysis show sustained growth in the number of publications over the last five years (2020–2025), with a predominance of applications in which hydrogen is combined with other energy carriers (58%).
The versatility of hydrogen has prompted the evaluation of different applications, with particular emphasis on energy storage to capitalize on energy surpluses (51%), mobility (19%), and heating (20%). The main existing barriers come from the absence of stable long-term regulation, interoperability between components and technologies, and a lack of real data. Overcoming these challenges should be based on new technologies such as artificial intelligence and the construction and operation of pilot projects. In addition, a Strengths,Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis has been conducted building upon the SHARED-H2 SUDOE project, yielding particularly insightful results through the active involvement of stakeholders in the preparatory process. Based on all the points given above, the research concludes that it is necessary to improve long-term policies and increase training at all levels aimed at active end-user participation and a profound restructuring of the energy system.SUDOE Interreg

El Plan de Organización de la Actividad Académica del PDI de la Universidad de Málaga: análisis y valoración crítica
No full text[ES]El Plan de Ordenación Docente (POD) de la Universidad de Málaga (UMA) 2025/2026-2026/2027 establece los criterios para determinar la capacidad docente del Personal Docente e Investigador (PDI), incorporando el Reconocimiento de Actividades del personal Docente (RAD) para compensar labores no lectivas. Este artículo evalúa críticamente el POD, utilizando el diagnóstico del Plan de Igualdad (IV Diagnóstico) como marco contextual, particularmente en relación con la promoción profesional femenina y las tareas con bajo impacto en la carrera académica, conocidas como “tareas de baja promoción”. Si bien el POD integra medidas de acción positiva, la estructura de los reconocimientos (RAD) tiende a compensar fuertemente aquellas actividades de investigación de alto nivel donde las mujeres están históricamente infrarrepresentadas, lo que podría perpetuar el fenómeno de la brecha de género en la promoción

Has the iron fist against criminal gangs really worked in El Salvador?
No full text[EN] Violence due to organized crime takes a heavy social and economic toll on many countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. El Salvador, historically known for having one of the highest homicide rates in the world, recently became one of the safest countries in America. In this transformation, the arrival of Nayib Bukele and the implementation of the Territorial Control Plan and the establishment of the state of emergency played a key role. This strategy involved strengthening security institutions, introducing new regulations, conducting mass detentions and implementing general surveillance. Using a regression discontinuity in time design, we find that the two extraordinarily tough flagship criminal policies of this plan against gangs reduced the homicide rate per 100,000 inhabitants by approximately 45 points between 2019 and 2024, accounting for almost three quarters of the reduction over the period analysed. We argue that these policies significantly enhanced the state’s incapacitation and deterrence capacities, creating an extremely hostile environment for the maras and dramatically undermining their ability to continue criminal activities. In this sense, despite the severe decline in democratic norms caused by Bukele’s strategy, its effectiveness in reducing homicide rates in El Salvador in the short to medium term is undisputed.Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (project PID2021123875NB-I00
Self-regulation in mathematics: different strategies for different levels of achievement
No full text[ES]En este estudio se analiza el uso de las estrategias de aprendizaje y de motivación de estudiantes de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO) en función del rendimiento académico en matemáticas, con el principal objetivo de identificar las estrategias que realmente parecen contribuir o explicar los diferentes tipos de rendimiento. 292 estudiantes de ESO fueron evaluados en el uso de estrategias de aprendizaje y de motivación y en rendimiento académico en matemáticas. Los resultados mostraron que, aunque todos los alumnos, independientemente de su rendimiento, utilizan las estrategias, sólo algunas parecen tenerpeso en los de rendimiento medio y alto, y aún son menos las estrategias que parecen explicarlos. De todas las estrategias de aprendizaje, solo algunas del grupo ‘control de recursos’ parecen explicar de forma significativa y positiva ambos niveles de rendimiento. Cuando el rendimiento matemático es medio, la ayuda de los compañeros parece ser clave. El esfuerzo y, de un modo marginal, la estrategia cognitiva de pensamiento crítico, contribuyen al rendimiento alto. Los datos también revelan diferencias en el caso de las estrategias de motivación. Así, aunque la autoeficacia parece contribuir en positivo en ambos casos, solo lo hace de forma significativa cuando el rendimiento es alto y marginalmente cuando es medio. Otra diferencia notable es el hallazgo de una contribución significativa en negativo en el caso de las estrategias motivacionales de self-handicapping solo cuando el rendimiento es alto. Parece que las variables que pueden explicar un mayor rendimiento de forma aislada pierden impacto en una situación realista en la que el estudiante usa diversas estrategias y se analizan todas en conjunto. Se discuten las implicaciones teóricas y prácticas de estos resultados.[EN]This study analyses the use of learning and motivation strategies. High School
students (ESO) as a function of academic performance in mathematics, with the main
objective of identifying the strategies that actually seem to contribute to or explain the
different types of performance. 292 ESO students were assessed on the use of learning and
motivational strategies and academic performance in mathematics. The results showed that,
although all students, regardless of their performance, use the strategies, only some of them
appear to be weighted towards the medium and high achievers, and even fewer strategies
seem to explain them. Of all the learning strategies, only some in the ‘resource control’ group
seem to explain significantly and positively both levels of performance. When mathematical
performance is average, peer help seems to be key. Effort and, marginally, the cognitive
strategy of critical thinking contribute to high performance. The data also reveal differences in
the case of motivational strategies. Thus, although self-efficacy seems to contribute positively
in both cases, it does so only significantly when performance is high and marginally when
it is average. Another notable difference is the finding of a significant negative contribution
in the case of self-handicapping motivational strategies only when performance is high.
It seems that variables that may explain higher performance in isolation lose impact in a
realistic situation in which the student uses several strategies and all are analysed together.
The theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed
Nutritional characterization and functionality properties of co-products from the abrasion dehulling during the production of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) flour [Dataset]
No full text[EN]The consumption of chickpea flour has increased significantly in recent years. The processing
of chickpeas into flour produces several co-products that could be reintroduced for human and
animal consumption. In this study, two co-products obtained from dry dehulling chickpeas, as a
preliminary step to obtaining flour, have been characterized. The proximal composition, fatty
acids, amino acids, minerals, B vitamins, bioactive compounds, antioxidant activity, antinutrient
composition and techno functional properties of both were analyzed. The product obtained from
dehulling, which corresponds to the abrasion of the outer part of the chickpea, showed a
nutritional and techno-functional profile similar to that of chickpea flour, with a high protein
content, antioxidant capacity and functional properties suitable for food use. The product
obtained from the peeler's aspiration system, consisting of chickpea hulls, is rich in fiber and
minerals, especially calcium, with high water retention and firmness of the gel. Both by-products
have balanced amino acids and low levels of antinutrients, making them promising sustainable
ingredients for food formulations
