The role of facial cues in signalling cooperativeness is limited and nuanced
No full textThis project investigates whether static facial images can accurately signal cooperativeness. Using the Prisoner’s Dilemma game and photo evaluations, it explores whether facial cues such as symmetry, dimorphism, and attractiveness influence judgments of cooperativeness under different time conditions. The findings contribute to understanding the role of facial cues in human interactions and cooperative decision-making.
The dataset includes evaluation by 300 participants of static facial images of 40 individuals (20 male, 20 female) who participated in a previous Prisoner’s Dilemma experiment, along with evaluations. Data includes demographic information, facial characteristics of the evaluated face, and judgments of cooperativeness under time-pressure and time-delay conditions.</p

No full textThis datase contains the data used for the analyses included in Martínez-Castilla, P., Calet, N., & Jiménez-Fernández, G. (2023). Music skills of Spanish-speaking children with developmental language disorder. Research in Developmental Disabilities, 140. https://doi.org/10.1016/J.RIDD.2023.104575
This research studied the music skills of Spanish-speaking children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) in comparison with typically developing peers matched for chronological age. Their rhythm discrimination, melody discrimination and music memory skills were assessed as well as several language abilities. Children with DLD exhibited significantly lower performance than their typically-developing peers on all three music subtests. Music and language skills were significantly related in both groups
Bilingual acquisition data: Dative Alternation_DA-L2 adult dataset
No full textThis dataset is the result of the research carried out by Silvia Sánchez Calderón (UNED) and Raquel Fernández Fuertes (UVa) in the frame of the Research Group UVALAL (University of Valladolid Language Acquisition Lab, https://uvalal.uva.es/) whose Principal Investigator is Raquel Fernández Fuertes. In this project, the research is conducted on the second language (L2) acquisition of English Dative Alternation (DA) constructions by adult learners whose first language (L1) is Spanish. The results are compared to a control group of L1 English adults. The two DA structures under analysis involve, on the one hand, prepositional to-datives that alternate as Double Object Constructions (DOCs) (1) and, on the other hand, prepositional for-datives that alternate as DOCs (2). The main aim of this project is to explore the role played by the L2 English learners' L1 in their sensitivity towards the two syntactic variants, with a particular emphasis on the potential crosslinguistic influence effects (or lack thereof) from Spanish into English and the Universal Grammar (UG) effect on their acquisition.

Pharmacological inhibition of mTORC1 reduces neural death and damage volumen after MCAO by modulating microglial reactivity
No full textIschemic stroke is a sudden and acute disease characterized by neuronal death, increment of reactive gliosis (reactive microglia and astrocytes), and a severe inflammatory process. Neuroinflammation is an early event after cerebral ischemia, with microglia playing a leading role. Reactive microglia involve functional and morphological changes that drive a wide variety of phenotypes. In this context, deciphering the molecular mechanisms underlying such reactive microglial is essential to devise strategies to protect neurons and maintain certain brain functions affected by early neuroinflammation after ischemia. Here, we studied the role of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity in the microglial response using a murine model of cerebral ischemia in the acute phase. We also determined the therapeutic relevance of the pharmacological administration of rapamycin, a mTOR inhibitor, before and after ischemic injury. Our data show that rapamycin, administered before or after brain ischemia induction, reduced the volume of brain damage and neuronal loss by attenuating the microglial response. Therefore, our findings indicate that the pharmacological inhibition of mTORC1 in the acute phase of ischemia may provide an alternative estrategia to reduce neuronal damage through attenuation of the associated neuroinflammation.

Hydrogen production through oxidative steam reforming of acetic acid over bimetallic Ni-M (M: Pt, Ru, Rh) catalysts supported on mesostructured CeO2
No full textThis study evaluates the impact of the incorporation of noble metals (M: Pt, Ru, or Rh) to Ni catalysts supported on mesostructured CeO2 (CeO2-m) for green hydrogen production through the oxidative steam reforming of acetic acid as biomass-derived compound obtained in fermentation or fast pyrolysis processes. Bimetallic catalyst formulation, including small amounts of noble metals, improved the Ni reducibility as evidenced by H2-TPR results. Catalytic results at 550 ºC demonstrate that the presence of noble metals in the catalyst formulation enhances catalytic activity in terms of acetic acid conversion and hydrogen yield compared to the unpromoted sample. Additionally, bimetallic samples show higher selectivity towards CO2 related to their role in the water-gas shift reaction, with significantly lower selectivity to intermediate products (acetone and CO). The best catalytic performance showed by Ni-Pt/CeO2-m allows to get almost complete acetic acid conversion and the highest hydrogen yield (~63%) along with the lowest coke deposition (25.6 mgcoke·gcat-1·h-1)
The efficacy of music for emotional wellbeing during the COVID-19 lockdown in Spain: An Analysis of Personal and Context-Related variables. Dataset.
No full textThis is the raw data used in the following paper: Martínez-Castilla, P., Gutiérrez-Blasco, I.M., Spitz, D.H., & Granot, R. (2021). The efficacy of music for emotional wellbeing during the COVID-19 lockdown in Spain: An Analysis of Personal and Context-Related variables. Frontiers in Psychology, 12:647837. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2021.647837
The study aimed to analyze the impact of personal and contextual variables on the perceived efficacy of musical behaviors to fulfill adults’ emotional wellbeing-related goals during the lockdown established in Spain. Personal variables included age, gender, musical training, personality, resilience, and perception of music’s importance. Contextual variables referred to living in a region with a high COVID-19 impact, perception of belonging to a risk group, being alone, having caring responsibilities during confinement, and amount of time of music listening as compared to prior to the crisis. The study was conducted retrospectively during August–December and the answers of 507 adults were analyzed. Only personal, but not COVID-19 context-related variables, showed an impact on music’s efficacy
Insights into the influence of feed impurities on catalytic performance in the solvent-free dimerization of renewable levulinic acid - Dataset
No full textBio-jet fuel precursors can be produced from the solvent-free aldol dimerization of levulinic acid. The influence of the most common impurities accompanying the levulinic acid produced in lignocellulosic biorefineries (sulfuric acid, water, formic acid, and furfural) has been studied on the catalytic performance of different kinds of heterogeneous acid catalysts: (i) sulfonic acid-based materials, such as propyl-sulfonic acid-modified SBA-15, and the sulfonic acid resin Amberlyst-70, and (ii) commercial acid zeolites, such as H-Beta-19 and H-Beta-75. Furfural is the impurity that produces the greatest detrimental effect on the performances of all the catalysts tested. Catalyst deactivation is observed due to the formation of organic deposits on the catalyst surface (identified by TGA and acid-base titration), phenomenon that is accentuated when furfural is present in the reaction medium. Amberlyst-70 can recover almost totally the initial catalytic activity with a regeneration step based on washing with an acid solution under reflux. For Beta zeolites, the original activity of the catalyst can be easily and totally recovered through a regeneration process by calcination. H-Beta-19 zeolite is shown as the most suitable catalyst for the aldol dimerization of renewable LA, as its activity is not significantly affected by the presence of most of the impurities in the levels herein analyzed. In addition, a simultaneous mixture of all the impurities produces a synergistic effect, even improving the initial activity of the H-Beta-19 zeolite as a consequence of the sulfuric acid contribution to the catalytic effect
