Is Spain Different? Innovation systems in the long-term development of the tourism sector. The IBEROSTAR case study.

Tourism is a highly competitive sector which is characterized by permanent transformation. Therefore, tourism firms depend largely on innovation to adapt themselves and compete, ensuring their survival and competitiveness. Despite research on innovation concludes that tourism firms are in most cases only moderately innovative, there are outstanding exceptions in specific fields and destinies. Spain, which is an unquestionable leader in tourism, constitutes one of them. In fact, Spanish tourism firms have shown a strong innovation capacity. They have improved and diversified their products thus meeting the requirements of a changing demand. This raises the need to properly understand how and why innovation takes place and who is involved in such a process. This paper aims to address these questions through the case study of one of the largest Spanish hospitality firms. The long history of Iberostar Group confirms that family firms and the networks they provide, along with environments that foster competition as was the case of the Spanish tourism industry, are important determinants of innovation particularly in a late-developed country

Science-media online training challenges and opportunities

EuroScitizen COST Action is a research network which aims to identify targeted strategies to raise levels of scientific literacy in Europe using evolution as a model. One of the activities developed by the EuroScitizen Media Working Group (WG4) was a set of Training Schools in Science and Media directed to young scientists and journalists. By uniting scientists and journalists, we aimed to promote better communication between the two groups while giving advanced training in science communication. The training activities were originally planned as one in-person Training School but converted to online events due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This required an adjustment of schedule and contents, and instead of having a training school for three full days, as in the planned in-person school, we developed several shorter sessions. Herein, we present the set of Science and Media training events we organised from June 2021 through February 2022, as well as the main challenges we encountered and what we found to be advantages of the online environment for training. We also share a checklist we developed for the organisation of training schools that may provide a useful tool for people planning other training events.

Perfil de las alteraciones neuroconductuales sobre el desempeño de las actividades de la vida diaria en pacientes con demencia tipo Alzheimer. Estudio de caso

El aumento en la esperanza de vida en la población de los países desarrollados incide en el crecimiento de las cifras de pacientes diagnosticados de demencia tipo Alzheimer (DTA). El objetivo del presente estudio se centra en determinar la influencia de las alteraciones neuroconductuales en las actividades de la vida diaria (AVD) en pacientes con DTA. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 34 personas diagnosticadas de demencia tipo Alzheimer probable (DTAP) que fueron evaluadas de manera ambulatoria por la Unidad de Neuropsicología del Complejo Asistencial de Zamora. Los resultados demuestran que las alteraciones neuroconductuales se relacionan con la capacidad de los pacientes con DTAP para llevar a cabo las AVD, especialmente las relacionadas con el baño, vestido, uso del retrete, movilidad, continencia esfinteriana y alimentación, así como en el uso del teléfono, preparación de las comidas, cuidado de la casa, lavado de la ropa y manejo de asuntos económicos

Search for composite and exotic fermions at LEP2

A search for unstable heavy fermions with the DELPHI detector at LEP is reported. Sequential and non-canonical leptons, as well as excited leptons and quarks, are considered. The data analysed correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 48 pb^{-1} at an e^+e^- centre-of-mass energy of 183 GeV and about 20 pb^{-1} equally shared between the centre-of-mass energies of 172 GeV and 161 GeV. The search for pair-produced new leptons establishes 95% confidence level mass limits in the region between 70 GeV/c^2 and 90 GeV/c^2, depending on the channel. The search for singly produced excited leptons and quarks establishes upper limits on the ratio of the coupling of the excited fermion

Métodos de escalamiento aplicados a la priorización de necesidades de formación en organizaciones

Los criterios para priorizar las necesidades que justifican las acciones formativas a implantar no se suelen explicitar a priori en los programas de formación continua en contextos organizacionales. En este trabajo se proponen los métodos de escalamiento como procedimiento factible y útil para identificar criterios explícitos de priorización de necesidades, y se concreta cuál de ellos es más apropiado en este contexto de intervención. 404 empleados de una organización pública cumplimentaron un cuestionario ad hoc para priorizar necesidades formativas en diferentes áreas durante el período 2004 al 2006; concretamente, se ordenaron 117, 75 y 286 estímulos, respectivamente. Se calcularon y compararon las ordenaciones obtenidas con cuatro métodos de escalamiento: el método de Dunn-Rankin y tres métodos derivados de la Ley del Juicio Categórico de Thurstone, concretamente ordenación por rangos, intervalos sucesivos e intervalos aparentemente iguales. Con los resultados, se constata la factibilidad y utilidad de estos métodos de escalamiento para la solución de los problemas planteados; a partir de los métodos más precisos, se propone el uso del método de ordenación por rangos por su parsimonia (respecto a sencillez en su procedimiento); y se anticipan futuras líneas de actuación

Measurement of the gluon fragmentation function and a comparison of the scaling violation in gluon and quarks jets

The fragmentation functions of quarks and gluons are measured in various three-jet topologies in Z decays from the full data set collected with the Delphi detector at the Z resonance between 1992 and 1995. The results at different values of transverse momentum-like scales are compared. A parameterization of the quark and gluon fragmentation functions at a fixed reference scale is given. The quark and gluon fragmentation functions show the predicted pattern of scaling violations. The scaling violation for quark jets as a function of a transverse momentum-like scale is in a good agreement with that observed in lower energy e+e− annihilation experiments. For gluon jets it appears to be significantly stronger. The scale dependences of the gluon and quark fragmentation functions agree with the prediction of the DGLAP evolution equations from which the colour factor ratio CA/CF is measured to be: CACF=2.26±0.09stat.±0.06sys.±0.12clus.,scale

Investigation of the splitting of quark and gluon jets

The splitting processes in identified quark and gluon jets are investigated using longitudinal and transverse observables. The jets are selected from symmetric three-jet events measured in Z decays with the Delphi detector in 1991-1994. Gluon jets are identified using heavy quark anti-tagging. Scaling violations in identified gluon jets are observed for the first time. The scale energy dependence of the gluon fragmentation function is found to be about two times larger than for the corresponding quark jets, consistent with the QCD expectation TeX . The primary splitting of gluons and quarks into subjets agrees with fragmentation models and, for specific regions of the jet resolution TeX , with NLLA calculations. The maximum of the ratio of the primary subjet splittings in quark and gluon jets is TeX . Due to non-perturbative effects, the data are below the expectation at small TeX . The transition from the perturbative to the non-perturbative domain appears at smaller TeX for quark jets than for gluon jets. Combined with the observed behaviour of the higher rank splittings, this explains the relatively small multiplicity ratio between gluon and quark jets
