Entrenamiento atencional para futbolistas de elite: un modelo de intervención

El objetivo de este estudio es la descripción preliminar de un sistema de evaluación y entrenamiento del estilo atencional de los jugadores. Para conseguir este objetivo se ha usado el análisis cuantitativo y cualitativo de la comparación entre la evaluación del estilo atencional del jugador de fútbol y su rendimiento en los partidosGoal of this presentation is the preliminary description of the assessment and coaching system of the player attentional style. The attentional style evaluation of the football player and the comparison with the results of the match quantitative and qualitative analysis have been used to reach this goa

Search for Rare Particles with the MACRO Detector

We report on the search for Rare Particles (Magnetic Monopoles, Nuclearites, Weakly Interacting Massive Particles and Lightly Ionizing Particles) with the MACRO detector. For magnetic monopoles (the main goal of the experiment) our limit is about 0.4 times the Parker bound for monopole velocities between 10^{-4} and 10^{-1}

Progettazione Lean di una Linea di Produzione per Pannolini e Assorbenti Lavabili

Applicazione dei principi Lean nella Progettazione di una linea di Produzione, in particolare sono stati analizzati i processi produtti, i materiali impiegati e il loro rifornimento, la gestione delle scorte, la produzione con gestione pull con l'impiego del sistema kanban, il dimensionamento della linea e la configurazione del layout, una analisi economica del ritorno dell'investimento

Elusive Causation

David Lewis claimed that knowledge is elusive. "That is how knowledge is elusive. Examine it, and straightway it vanishes..." He argued that epistemology robs us of our knowledge: "Maybe epistemology is the culprit. Maybe the extraordinary pastime robs us of our knowledge. Maybe we do know a lot in daily life; but maybe when we look hard at our knowledge it goes away." The aim of this paper is to answer the question: might causation be elusive in a similar sense to that in which knowledge has been claimed to be elusive? Might there be pastimes that rob us of causation too? I will argue for a contextual account of causation and present detailed mechanisms for fixing truth values from the context

REFLEXÕES PARA APLICAÇÃO DE UM MODELO DE GESTÃO DE QUALIDADE PARA IES

O objetivo deste trabalho de pesquisa é identificar, analisar, avaliar e propor um modelo de gestão baseado nos resultados apresentados no Exame Nacional de Cursos (ENC) de 2002, dos programas de graduação em Ciências Contábeis e verificar a existência de padrões de qualidade e excelência entre as Instituições de Ensino Superior-(IES) avaliadas. Através de uma conceituação a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica de educadores e dos órgãos responsáveis pela educação no país, buscou-se definir um norteador para a questão da qualidade do ensino, dessa área de conhecimento no Brasil. Com base nos resultados obtidos no Exame Nacional de Cursos – ENC de 2002, o primeiro ao qual o curso superior de Ciências Contábeis foi submetido, foi elaborada uma análise destes resultados, detectando os fatores determinantes de desempenho no curso. Através da análise crítica de todos estes fatores determinantes tornou-se possível a criação de um modelo de avaliação focado na qualidade como sugestão de avaliação de desempenho que pode auxiliar o gestor das Instituições de Ensino Superior – IES no direcionamento das suas ações e desenvolvimento dos cursos

Problems of Electrodynamics. A special relativistic interlude

The chapter discusses the possibility of interpreting the predictive explanation of the Zeeman Effect as a case of continuity between Lorentz theory of Electron and Relativistic Electrodynamics. The result is negative and it seems so both in structuralist and in selective realist terms. The strategy of the case study is not to look for elements of continuity with modern reading in the old explanation. Rather, I propose a comparison between these two successive phases of electrodynamics
