Don't erase

Aquesta exposició del Postgrau en Il·lustració creativa i tècniques de comunicació visual d’EINA és una mostra condensada de l’odissea personal que 26 il·lustradors hem fet durant un any. Us ensenyem fins a on hem arribat sota la consigna de “No esborrar”, d’abraçar l’error i perdre-li la por, de trobar la nostra manera única i intransferible d’il·lustrar. No hi ha camí ràpid per convertir-se en il·lustrador o il·lustradora d’èxit, igualment no hi ha una única manera d’il·lustrar. Cadascun de nosaltres ho fem i ho seguirem fent a la nostra manera, però el que està clar és que per il·lustrar bé necessites fer-ho sense por, amb confiança i seguretat en els encerts i també en els errors perquè això és el que fa que una obra ens emocioni.Esta exposición del Postgrado en Ilustración creativa y técnicas de comunicación visual de EINA es una muestra condensada de la odisea personal que 26 ilustradores hemos hecho durante un año.

No existe el camino rápido para convertirse en ilustrador o ilustradora de éxito, al igual que no hay una única forma de ilustrar, cada uno de nosotros lo hace y lo seguirá haciendo a su manera, pero lo que está claro es que para ilustrar bien necesitas hacerlo sin miedo, con confianza y seguridad en tus aciertos y también en tus errores porque eso es lo que hace que una obra nos emocione.This exhibition of the Postgraduate Diploma in Creative Illustration and Visual Communication Techniques of EINA is a condensed sample of the personal odyssey that 26 illustrators have made in the past year. In it we show you, the public, how far we have come under the slogan of “Don’t Erase”, of embracing error and facing our fears, of finding our unique and non-transferable way of illustrating. There is no quick way to become a successful illustrator, just as there is no single way to illustrate, each one of us will continue to work his or her own way, but what is clear is that to illustrate well you need to do it without fear, with confidence in both your achievements and failures because that is what helps create emotional, moving work

Predicting the onset and persistence of episodes of depression in primary health care. The predictD-Spain study: Methodology

Background: The effects of putative risk factors on the onset and/or persistence of depression remain unclear. We aim to develop comprehensive models to predict the onset and persistence of episodes of depression in primary care. Here we explain the general methodology of the predictD-Spain study and evaluate the reliability of the questionnaires used. Methods: This is a prospective cohort study. A systematic random sample of general practice attendees aged 18 to 75 has been recruited in seven Spanish provinces. Depression is being measured with the CIDI at baseline, and at 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. A set of individual, environmental, genetic, professional and organizational risk factors are to be assessed at each follow-up point. In a separate reliability study, a proportional random sample of 401 participants completed the test-retest (251 researcher-administered and 150 self-administered) between October 2005 and February 2006. We have also checked 118,398 items for data entry from a random sample of 480 patients stratified by province. Results: All items and questionnaires had good test-retest reliability for both methods of administration, except for the use of recreational drugs over the previous six months. Cronbach's alphas were good and their factorial analyses coherent for the three scales evaluated (social support from family and friends, dissatisfaction with paid work, and dissatisfaction with unpaid work). There were 191 (0.16%) data entry errors. Conclusion: The items and questionnaires were reliable and data quality control was excellent. When we eventually obtain our risk index for the onset and persistence of depression, we will be able to determine the individual risk of each patient evaluated in primary health care.The research in Spain was funded by grants from the Spanish Ministry of Health (grant FIS references: PI04/1980, PI0/41771, PI04/2450, and PI06/1442), Andalusian Council of Health (grant references: 05/403, 06/278 and 08/0194), and the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science (grant reference SAF 2006/07192). The Malaga sample, as part of the predictD-International study, was also funded by a grant from The European Commission (reference QL4-CT2002-00683)
