CLASES SOCIALES Y PEDAGOGIAS: VISIBLES E INVISIBLES

A continuación examinaré algunos de los presupuestos y el contexto cultural de una forma de pedagogía para el pre-escolar y la escuela infantil, una forma que tiene al menos las siguientes características:1) Donde el control del maestro sobre el niño es implícito en lugar de ser explicito.2) Donde el maestro organiza idealmente el contexto que se espera el niño explore y reorganice.3) Donde dentro del contexto organizado, el niño aparentemente tiene amplios poderes sobre lo que selecciona, sobre cómo él estructura y sobre la escala del tiempo de sus actividades.4) Donde el niño aparentemente regula sus propios movimientos y relaciones sociales.5) Donde hay un reducido énfasis sobre la transmisión y adquisición de habilidades específicas.6) Donde los criterios para la evaluación de la pedagogía son múltiples, difusos y no son fácilmente mensurables

LA RELACION ENTRE LOS CODIGOS SOCIOLINGUISTICOS Y LOS CODIGOS EDUCATIVOS (1977)

Quisiera presentar juntas las relaciones más importantes entre los ensayos del Volumen 1 y los presentados en el volumen 3. El bosquejo de la unión fue dado en el artículo titulado “A brief account of the theory of codes” que se publicó en la segunda edición del Volumen 1. Sin embargo, el asunto fue necesariamente limitado ya que no podía esperar que el lector hubiera tenido acceso a los ensayos de este volumen (Vol. 3). La tesis general se compone de dos vertientes ínter-relacionadas:1) Cómo las relaciones de clases regulan la estructura de la comunicación en la familia y por lo tanto, la orientación del código sociolingüístico inicial de los niños.2) Cómo las relaciones de clase regulan la institucionalización de los códigos elaborados en la escuela, las formas de su transmisión y por lo tanto las formas de su manifestación

Peer-reviewed physical education journals from Arabic-speaking countries: a regional assessment

Purpose: Non-communicable diseases (NCD) such as heart disease, diabetes and overweight and obesity are associated with physical inactivity and represent the leading cause of death globally. In the Arabic-speaking region, NCD is associated with more than 2.3 million deaths annually with rates expected to increase. Professional physical education (PE) journals are important resources in the dissemination of knowledge from evidence to practice. With the growing physical inactivity problem among Arabic-speaking countries, the purpose of this paper is to assess the availability culturally relevant peer-reviewed physical education journals in this region. Design/methodology/approach: An assessment of professional PE journals within this region was conducted using four academic databases and journal directories. The electronic search generated 14 PE-affiliated journals in Arabic-speaking countries with a publication status of active, interrupted or ceased; search parameters were limited to English, Arabic and French languages. Findings: Results indicated that no professional publications identified in this review predates to 2005 within the Arabic-speaking region. Although all 14 journals within the sample offer both electronic and open access, only one provided both print and electronic versions. Iraq was over-represented with 12 PE journals; no other country offered more than one. Originality/value: Systematic analyses of PE prevalence among Arabic-speaking countries are scarce, and there are no current evaluations of peer-reviewed publications addressing PE within the Arabic-speaking region. PE capacity building and collaboration can be fostered, improved and maintained when supported by regionally and culturally congruent research

Psychological Stress and Cellular Aging in Cancer: A Meta-Analysis

Background. Epidemiological evidence continues to accumulate on the effect of psychosocial and behavioral factors in relation to cancer risk, progression, and mortality. Material and Methods. This article presents the current evidence on the relationship between psychological stress and the risk of cancer and cellular aging process. Ten databases were searched to identify publications up to September 2019. References from retrieved articles were also reviewed. We included nine review papers and 26 cohort or case-control studies based on inclusion/exclusion criteria. Results. Results of previously published review articles did not show consistent evidence for the association between cancer risk and psychological stress, while previous evidence is stronger regarding the role of chronic psychological stress on cancer growth and metastasis and aging. In seven observational studies, severe life events, anxiety, depression, insufficient social support perception, or avoiding coping strategy were significantly associated with breast cancer risk. For other specific types of cancer, 11 studies reported increased risk factors for stressful life events, and two others found increased mortality or a decline in treatment adherence. Conclusions. Recent epidemiological evidence generally suggests psychosocial factors may be considered risk factors for specific types of cancer and play a key role in the cellular aging process. Understanding molecular mechanisms of the stress interaction is important in cancer management and prevention. The psychological stressors should be considered when developing or evaluating change in psychosocial practice

HACIA UNA TEORIA DEL DISCURSO PEDAGOGICO

SOBRE EL DISCURSOEn esta sección consideraremos un conjunto de presupuestos provisionales sobre el discurso, los cuales usaremos como el fundamento subyacente para nuestras consideraciones presentadas en los siguientes capítulos con respecto a aquellos discursos legitimados que definen las condiciones de ejercicio de las prácticas de reproducción (a través de la transmisión, adquisición) dentro del sistema educativo

Can dream science be used to elicit healthy behaviors?

The science of dreams and their interpretation may seem like a recent trend, justifying current research interests. Yet, for centuries, dream science, once called oneirology, has captivated dreamers in quest of meanings and motivated scientists in search of explanations. Due to the recent expansion of dream research this narrative review discusses and explores relationships between dreaming and health promoting behaviors. Perspectives from current evidence are classified according to the fundamentals of the Freudian dream theory. Selected investigations are reviewed according to specific elements of the psychoanalytic theory, suggesting new approaches including a possible explanation of the paradox of the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and new terms proposed, pre-REM and post-REM, to replace non-REM (NREM) sleep. This review draws parallels between selected studies and the possible health promotion benefits within a psychoanalytic perspective, proposing possible lines of research to improve physical and mental health and wellbeing within the context of dreaming. The potential of dreaming to elicit healthy behaviors may be possible if the dynamics of the psyche\u27s structure are consciously understood. Further examinations of dream science could lead to unexplored areas of public health, neuropsychoanalysis, and health promotion with an integrative and cross-disciplinary approach

Addressing Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Hungarian American Populations: A Cultural Exploration of Transdisciplinary Health Promotion

Hungarian Americans share a unique culture of food traditions associated with their value system and way of life. Researchers, health care providers, and nutrition professionals counseling and treating a Hungarian-American population should develop a baseline of cultural understanding to achieve successful and long-lasting behavior change outcomes. The leading causes of death among Hungarians include ischemic heart disease (21.3%), stroke (13.4%), and cirrhosis (5.8%); all are directly or indirectly attributed to a traditional Hungarian diet coupled with a sedentary lifestyle. Health behaviors among Hungarian Americans can be partially explained by the Health Belief Model’s value-expectancy construct. Understanding cultural expectations and their associated values serve as a foundation for health promotion programming to reduce risk of cardiovascular disease and comorbidities. This review explored numerous facets of Hungarian-American dietary habits in psychosocial, economic, historical, and cultural contexts. Health education and health promotion considerations were also examined
