From disagreement to conflict: a linguistic analysis of couple arguments.
No full textEste artículo analiza cómo las estrategias lingüísticas empleadas para expresar el desacuerdo en conversaciones cotidianas entre parejas pueden contribuir, o no, a la escalada del conflicto. A partir del corpus ESPRINT-Conversación, se identifican y clasifican distintos recursos lingüísticos según su potencial para generar emociones desagradables, lo que permite establecer un continuo de intensidad conflictiva. El análisis revela dos patrones principales: por una parte, conversaciones en las que predominan estrategias de bajo potencial conflictivo, caracterizadas por la expresión indirecta del desacuerdo o su argumentación basada en datos; y, por otra, aquellas en las que el desacuerdo se fundamenta en reproches o se acompaña de expresiones descorteses, aumentando así su potencial conflictivo. Asimismo, se observa una correlación entre la densidad de actos de habla discrepantes y la intensidad del conflicto. En conjunto, los resultados sugieren que la escalada del conflicto entre íntimos depende no solo del contenido del desacuerdo, sino también de su forma de expresión, argumentación y reiteración.Abstract: This article analyses how the linguistic strategies used to express disagreement in everyday conversations in couples may contribute to conflict escalation. Using the ESPRINT-Conversation corpus, different linguistic resources are identified and classified according to their potential to generate unpleasant emotions, which leads to a conflict intensity continuum. The study shows two main patterns: the first type consists of versations with predominant low-conflict strategies, characterised by an indirect expression of disagreement or data-basedargumentative patterns; the second type includes conversations in which disagreement is based on reproaches or is accompanied by impolite expressions, which increases its conflict potential. Moreover, a correlation is observed between the density of digressive speech acts and conflict intensity. Overall, results suggest that conflict escalation in couples depends not only on the disagreement itself, but also on its form of expression, argumentation and reiteration
Art, architecture, and utopia in the neoliberal era. Lima-Peru 1990-2020
No full textThis article explores the relationships between art and architecture that, in recent years, various Peruvian artists have been developing as part of their professional practice. The analysis first proposes a reading of the relationship between art, architecture, and neoliberalism through the constant presence of certain materials that would speak to self-construction and precarious housing. Self-construction, in this sense, was seen more as a virtuous solution rather than –as it apparently was– a consequence of the absence of public housing policies. This is where the formal dimension of materials has gained ground over more political and social reflections, sidelining what could explain the proliferation of certain typologies used in the art world. Secondly, the article proposes a reading of utopia that could be a way out of the impasse in which art has found itself in recent years: between modernist utopia and popular utopia.El presente artículo indaga en las relaciones entre arte y arquitectura que, en los últimos años, diferentes artistas peruanos han ido desarrollando como parte de su práctica profesional. El análisis plantea, primero, una lectura de la relación entre arte, arquitectura y neoliberalismo a través de la presencia constante de ciertos materiales que hablarían de la autoconstrucción y la vivienda precaria. La autoconstrucción, en ese sentido, se vio más como una salida virtuosa y no –como al parecer fue– como consecuencia de la ausencia de las políticas públicas de vivienda. Aquí es donde la dimensión formal de los materiales ha ganado terreno frente a las reflexiones más políticas y sociales, dejando de lado lo que podría explicar la proliferación de ciertas tipologías que usa el mundo del arte. En segundo lugar, el artículo propone una lectura de la utopía que podría ser una salida al impasse en el que se ha encontrado el arte de los últimos años: entre la utopía modernista y la utopía popular
The comfort of the inhospitable. Environmental history of the monastery of Skellig Michael (co. Kerry, Ireland)
No full textSkelligMichael es una inaccesible isla de la costa suroeste de Irlanda que alberga un monasterio altomedievalen excepcional estado de conservación. El conjunto, declarado Patrimonio Mundial, presenta numerosas barreras naturales que favorecen su aislamiento y su defensa dentro de unas condiciones extremas para la vida pero propicias para la espiritualidad. Sin embargo, los estudios arqueológicos y medioambientales han posibilitado una nueva interpretación de su arquitectura. La localización del monasterio, la disposición de sus edificios y la forma en la que estos están construidos revelan una intencionada y astuta búsqueda del bienestar, algo que contrasta con el ideal heroico (incluso de mortificación) tantas veces presentado por la literatura monástica. Estos parámetros, en ocasiones invisibles pero tangibles, han aportado una nueva capa medioambiental a la historia del monasterio, que ocultaba una isla climática dentro de la islaSkellig Michael is an inaccessible island in the southwest coast of Ireland,home of a well-preserved early medieval monastery. This World Heritage Siteprovides numerous natural hazards that favour its isolation and defence in conditions that are extreme for life but conducive to spirituality. However, archaeological and environmental studies have enableda new interpretation of its architecture. The location of the monastery, the arrangement of itsbuildings, and their construction method reveal a deliberate and astute search for well-being. This feature contrasts with the heroic ideal (even of mortification) so often presented in monastic literature. These parameters, sometimes invisible but tangible, have added anewenvironmental layer to the history of the monastery: a climatic island hidden within the island
Effects of an α neurofeedback intervention with reinforcement through gamification on the control of state anxiety
No full textThe physical preparation of an athlete is a fundamental aspect in any discipline, but complete training must also include psychological well-being. In this sense, anxiety and fear of failure play a key role in sports performance. According to Domingos et al. (2021), electroencephalography (EEG)-based studies have shown that a reduction in power in Alpha brain activity is associated with increased stress. The present study aims to apply Neurofeeback techniques reinforced with gamification, given that this has been consolidated in recent years as a key trend in the educational sector, integrating technologies such as virtual and augmented reality (Moreno-López et al., 2023). In this context, archery athletes were trained in the self-regulation of Alpha brain activity, promoting a state of calm during training and optimizing their ability to face adverse situations. A pre-post quasi-experimental design with a control group was used, in which only the experimental group received specific instructions to increase Alpha brain activity. A total of 60 archers between 18 and 70 years old participated (M = 41.92; SD= 11.04), with an equal distribution by gender. In conclusion, the results show a significant increase in Alpha brain activity and "success" values, although the expected changes in anxiety measures were not observed, suggesting that its impact on anxiety reduction may require additional approaches or adjustments to the interventionA preparação física de um atleta é um aspeto fundamental em qualquer disciplina, mas o treino completo deve incluir também o bem-estar psicológico. Neste sentido, a ansiedade e o medo do fracasso desempenham um papel fundamental no desempenho desportivo. Segundo Domingos et al. (2021), estudos baseados na eletroencefalografia (EEG) mostraram que uma redução da potência na atividade cerebral Alfa está associada a um aumento do stress. O presente estudo visa aplicar técnicas de Neurofeeback reforçadas com gamificação, visto que esta se consolidou nos últimos anos como uma tendência chave no setor educacional, integrando tecnologias como realidade virtual e aumentada (Moreno-López et al., 2023). Neste contexto, eramtreinados atletas de tiro com arco na autorregulação da atividade cerebral Alfa, promovendo um estado de calma durante o treino e otimizando a sua capacidade de enfrentar situações adversas. Foi utilizado um desenho quase experimental pré-pós com grupo controlo, em que apenas o grupo experimental recebeu instruções específicas para aumentar a atividade cerebral Alfa. Participaram 60 arqueiros entre os 18 e os 70 anos (M = 41,92; DP = 11,04), com distribuição equitativa por género. Em conclusão, os resultados mostram um aumento significativo da atividade cerebral Alfa e dos valores de “sucesso”, embora não tenham sido observadas as alterações esperadas nas medidas de ansiedade, sugerindo que o seu impacto na redução da ansiedade pode exigir abordagens ou ajustes adicionais à intervençãoLa preparación física de un/a deportista es un aspecto fundamental en cualquier disciplina, pero un entrenamiento completo debe incluir también el bienestar psicológico.

En conclusión, los resultados muestran un aumento significativo en la actividad cerebral Alpha y en los valores de "éxito", aunque no se observaron los cambios esperados en las medidas de ansiedad, lo que sugiere que, su impacto en la reducción de la ansiedad puede requerir enfoques adicionales o ajustes en la intervención
Relationship between teachers' digital competencies and the acceptance and use of Artificial Intelligence during initial teacher training.
No full textLa inteligencia artificial (IA) está transformando la educación, pero su adopción en la formación docente aún presenta desafíos. Este estudio analiza la relación entre las competencias digitales de los docentes en formación y su predisposición al uso de IAen la enseñanza. Se empleó un enfoque cuantitativo con diseño ex post facto, encuestando a 793 estudiantes de Educación Infantil y Primaria en universidades andaluzas. Se utilizaron los marcos DigCompEdu y UTAUT2 para evaluar competencias digitales y aceptación tecnológica, aplicando modelos de ecuaciones estructurales para identificar correlaciones. Los resultados indican que, de todas las competencias digitales analizadas, solo el conocimiento sobre el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje influye significativamente en la aceptación y uso de la IA, mientras que otras dimensiones, como la evaluación, el compromiso profesional y el desarrollo de competencias digitales en los estudiantes, no presentan un impacto significativo. Se identificó que la falta de formación específica limita el uso pedagógico de la IA, a pesar de la familiaridad con estas herramientas. Los hallazgos sugieren la necesidad de integrar programas de capacitación que refuercen las competencias digitales de los futuros docentes. Aunque este estudio aporta evidencia empírica sobre la importancia de la formación en IA, presenta limitaciones relacionadas con la muestra y el enfoque metodológico. Futuros estudios podrían ampliar la población analizada e incluir metodologías cualitativas para una comprensión más profunda del fenómeno. Se concluye que fortalecer la formación docente en IA no solo facilitaría su adopción, sino que también optimizaría su impacto en el aprendizaje, fomentando un uso más ético y efectivo de estas tecnologías en la educación.Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming education, yet its adoption in teacher training still
faces challenges. This study examines the relationship between pre-service teachers' digital
competencies and their willingness to use AI in teaching. A quantitative ex post facto design
was employed, surveying 793 students from Early Childhood and Primary Education
programs at Andalusian universities. The DigCompEdu and UTAUT2 frameworks were used
to assess digital competencies and technology acceptance, applying structural equation
models to identify correlations. Results indicate that, among all analyzed digital
competencies, only knowledge of the teaching-learning process significantly influences AI
acceptance and use, while other dimensions, such as assessment, professional commitment,
and the development of students’ digital skills, do not have a significant impact. The study
found that the lack of specific training limits the pedagogical use of AI, despite familiarity
with these tools. Findings suggest the need to integrate training programs that strengthen
pre-service teachers’ digital and techno-critical competencies. Although this study provides
empirical evidence on the importance of AI training, it has limitations related to sample size
and methodological approach. Future research could expand the analyzed population and
incorporate qualitative methodologies for a deeper understanding of the phenomenon. The
study concludes that strengthening teacher training in AI would not only facilitate its
adoption but also optimize its impact on learning, promoting a more ethical and effective use
of these technologies in education
Análisis de deportistas que practican pruebas de alta exigencia: Vinculando su situación laboral con la motivación, la identidad y la dependencia
No full textThis study aimed to analyze a new aspect of sport by studying those athletes of legal age and non-professionals who decide to take the step to participate in highly demanding sports events. Through a survey based on three validated scales (MOMS, AIMS and EDS), data on motivation, identity and dependence on exercise were collected from 387 athletes (320 men and 67 women) whose age range was between 18 and 74 years. In addition to psychosocial factors, sociodemographic aspects such as educational level and employment status were analyzed, resulting in 17 studied variables whose mean values of internal consistency presented a remarkable degree of reliability. Among other results, it can be highlighted that gender significantly (p<0.05) affects the subscales of weight, recognition and social identity in favor of men, while in meaning of life and self-esteem it does so in favor of women (p<0.05) and that the variables that are most frequently associated with others are desired effects, lack of control, and reduction of other activities. The study can help sports managers plan the design of these tests based on the type of user they are targeting.Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar un nuevo aspecto del deporte, centrándose en aquellos deportistas mayores de edad y no profesionales que deciden dar el paso de participar en pruebas deportivas de alta exigencia. A través de una encuesta basada en tres escalas validadas (MOMS, AIMS y EDS), se recogieron datos sobre la motivación, la identidad y la dependencia del ejercicio de 387 deportistas (320 hombres y 67 mujeres), con un rango de edad entre los 18 y los 74 años. Además de los factores psicosociales, se analizaron aspectos sociodemográficos como el nivel educativo y la situación laboral, resultando en 17 variables estudiadas cuyos valores medios de consistencia interna presentaron un notable grado de fiabilidad. Entre otros resultados, se destaca que el género afecta de manera significativa (p<0.05) a las subescalas de peso, reconocimiento e identidad social a favor de los hombres, mientras que en sentido de la vida y autoestima lo hace a favor de las mujeres (p<0.05). Asimismo, las variables que con mayor frecuencia se asocian con otras son efectos deseados, falta de control y reducción de otras actividades. El estudio puede ser de utilidad para que los gestores deportivos planifiquen el diseño de estas pruebas en función del tipo de usuario al que se dirigen
Android-based GymAp application to improve handstand skills in gymnastics learning among high school students
No full textThis study aimed to develop a valid, practical, and effective gymnastics instruction media to improve students' handstand skills in gymnastics education. The development process followed the Plomp model. The study involved 60 students from the Faculty of Sports Sciences of Universitas Negeri Padang, Indonesia. Data were collected through tests, interviews, questionnaires, and observations and assessed quantitatively through the use of a t-test. The findings indicated that the Android-based gymnastics educational media demonstrated very high validity across material, media, and language assessments, as well as in handstand skill evaluation tools. The media was also rated as very practical and very effective. The average initial handstand skill scores across three schools were 83.65, 84.65, and 73.45, with average improvement scores of 0.61, 0.65, and 0.64, respectively. These results indicate that the android-based gymnastics learning media is valid, practical, and effective in enhancing students’ handstand skills. It is anticipated that this media will serve as an alternative resource for improving the quality of gymnastics education and other related academic disciplines
A ‘Hesiodic’ Muse (Ar. Pax 775-780).
No full textL’articolo individua un debito lessicale e concettuale verso Esiodo per l’invocazione alla Musa di Ar. Pax 774-780. Aristofane intende rappresentarsi come ‘poeta della pace’ e a tale scopo si rifà alla tradizione che ha origine con Esiodo e passa per Stesicoro. Dopo un’analisi delle invocazioni alle Muse in Aristofane e dei rapporti di questo passo con l’opera di Stesicoro ed Esiodo, è offerto un commento ai versi. L’invocazione può essere considerata un ulteriore passo verso la definizione del genere al quale sarà successivamente accostata la Musa Talia.Abstract: This paper detects both a lexical and conceptual debt toward Hesiod for Aristophanes’ invocation of the Muse in Pax 774-780. Aristophanes aims to represent himself as ‘the poet of the peace’ and for that purpose he recalls the tradition that stems from Hesiod and involves Stesichorus. After analyzing the invocations of the Muses in Aristophanes and the relation of this passage with both Stesichorus and Hesiod’s texts, it is proposed a commentary for these lines. The invocation can be conceived as a further step toward the definition of the genre with which the Muse Thalia will be paired lately
Hygiene regulations as a tool for the conservation of protected species: The butterfly ray (Gymnura altavela)
No full textSe ha detectado en tres ocasiones la comercialización ilegal de alas (aletas pectorales) de ejemplares de la especie protegida raya mariposa. Los ejemplares habían sido troceados (separadas las alas del resto del cuerpo en las embarcaciones), práctica que es incompatible con los requisitos de higiene en productos de la pesca y la acuicultura y que se procede a justificar en el presente trabajo. La normativa pesquera europea para evitar el comercio fraudulento de especies protegidas de tiburones prohíbe el descabezado y corte de aletas de los ejem-plares antes de la primera venta, pero esta normativa no es aplicable en el otro gran grupo de elasmobranquios, las rayas. El cumplimiento estricto de este precepto de la normativa de higiene evitaría la comercialización fraudulenta de alas de la especie protegida raya mariposa.The illegal commercialization of wings (pectoral fins) of specimens of the protected butterfly ray species has been detected on three occasions. The specimens had been cut into pieces (the wings were separated from the rest of the body in the boats), a practice that is incompatible with the hygiene requirements for fishing and aquaculture products and which is justified in this work. European fishing regulations to prevent fraudulent trade in protected shark species prohibit the beheading and fin cutting of specimens before the first sale, but this regulation is not applicable to the other large group of elasmobranchs, the rays. Strict compliance with this precept of the hygiene regulations would prevent the fraudulent marketing of wings of the protected butterfly ray species
Dynamic knowledge management capabilities for successful product eco-innovation
No full textThis study explores how dynamic capabilities —specifically knowledge management, knowledge capacity, agility, information capabilities and resilience— support successful eco-innovation in product development. Grounded on the dynamic capabilities framework, the research introduces the IKARG model (Information, Knowledge Management, Agility, Resilience, and Green Innovation), analyzing its application in a quantitative study of 260 industrial firms. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) reveals that knowledge-based dynamic capabilities significantly enhance organisational resilience and agility, both of which positively impact green product success. Findings underscore the importance of agile and resilient knowledge management systems in responding effectively to environmental and market changes, thus fostering sustainable competitive advantage. This study contributes to literature by offering empirical evidence and a novel integrative model that connects dynamic capabilities to eco-innovation. Practical implications highlight the need for businesses to invest in knowledge management and digital infrastructure to enhance adaptability and sustainability. Future research should examine the IKARG model across diverse sectors and explore the potential of emerging technologies to amplify agility and eco-innovation
