Patrimonialización de sitios industriales textiles: más de una década de puesta en valor por las comunidades de Tomé

Importantes procesos de revalorización del patrimonio industrial han sido visualizados en la ciudad de Tomé, región del Biobío, Chile. Estas acciones han sido implementadas por más de una década por un movimiento ciudadano que ha estado preocupado por la protección y gestión participativa del patrimonio textil. En este artículo se considera un enfoque metodológico cualitativo para comprender las principales acciones y propuestas adoptadas por la comunidad de Tomé para proteger el patrimonio textil. Esta investigación propone que hay un patrón distintivo de apropiación patrimonial. Los grupos ciudadanos ofrecen nuevas ideas y prácticas sobre los usos y derechos sociales con respecto a las áreas patrimoniales. Dichas propuestas tienen diferencias con respecto a otras ideas fuertemente centradas en una visión monumentalista.

INFLUENCE OF THE PVD PROCESS PARAMETERS ON ZNO: AL THIN FILMS

In recent years a growing interest in searching new material for producing Transparent Conductive Layers (TLC) is observed. ZnO:Al thin films are this type material, interesting due to wide range of potential applications where it can be applied like: transparent electrodes, gas sensors, thin film transistors, sensor devices, electroluminescent diodes and others. The aim of this paper is to discuss influence of the ZnO:Al film deposition parameters of PVD magnetron sputtering method on TCL structure and its chemical composition. It contains description of the ZnO:Al PVD magnetron sputtering deposition method. It discusses results obtained from the analysis of the microstructure of ZnO:Al thin films using a high resolution scanning electron microscope, layers' surface topography determined with atomic force microscope and results of chemical composition analyses

The psychological science accelerator’s COVID-19 rapid-response dataset

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Psychological Science Accelerator coordinated three large-scale psychological studies to examine the effects of loss-gain framing, cognitive reappraisals, and autonomy framing manipulations on behavioral intentions and affective measures. The data collected (April to October 2020) included specific measures for each experimental study, a general questionnaire examining health prevention behaviors and COVID-19 experience, geographical and cultural context characterization, and demographic information for each participant. Each participant started the study with the same general questions and then was randomized to complete either one longer experiment or two shorter experiments. Data were provided by 73,223 participants with varying completion rates. Participants completed the survey from 111 geopolitical regions in 44 unique languages/dialects. The anonymized dataset described here is provided in both raw and processed formats to facilitate re-use and further analyses. The dataset offers secondary analytic opportunities to explore coping, framing, and self-determination across a diverse, global sample obtained at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which can be merged with other time-sampled or geographic data

A multi-country test of brief reappraisal interventions on emotions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased negative emotions and decreased positive emotions globally. Left unchecked, these emotional changes might have a wide array of adverse impacts. To reduce negative emotions and increase positive emotions, we tested the effectiveness of reappraisal, an emotion-regulation strategy that modifies how one thinks about a situation. Participants from 87 countries and regions (n = 21,644) were randomly assigned to one of two brief reappraisal interventions (reconstrual or repurposing) or one of two control conditions (active or passive). Results revealed that both reappraisal interventions (vesus both control conditions) consistently reduced negative emotions and increased positive emotions across different measures. Reconstrual and repurposing interventions had similar effects. Importantly, planned exploratory analyses indicated that reappraisal interventions did not reduce intentions to practice preventive health behaviours. The findings demonstrate the viability of creating scalable, low-cost interventions for use around the world

Ver la luz. Ensayo experimental audiovisual

Memoria para optar al Título de Realizadora en Cine y Televisión“Ver la luz” es un ensayo poético realizado con material de archivo íntimo contenido en una pieza u obra audiovisual, la cual evoca momentos sensibles de su vida mediados con la llegada de un hijo. A nivel conceptual el término que se trabaja es lo “genuino", como la conexión sensible entre el realizador/ autor y el modo de creación, termino acuñado a partir del concepto de Aura que sostiene Walter Benjamin, al referirse a la conexión sensible entre obra y espectador, como una conexión real. Es por ello que el foco principal se basa en hallar dicha conexión sensible en el proceso creativo de la obra misma. Bajo esta premisa esta obra se trabaja en un nivel completamente subjetivo de parte de la realizadora, cuyos cánones y márgenes que delimiten y den forma a la obra estarán completamente ligados a un proceso personal expresivo en la búsqueda por crear un lenguaje audiovisual cómodo que le permita evocar y/o representar su imaginario.

Terapias para la comunicación en personas con esclerosis múltiple

People with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) can present a variety of communication disorders that affect their roles and social participation, affecting their quality of life and that of their environment. An early approach to these people and their communication difficulties could improve/compensate/facilitate communication, minimizing the effects on their daily life. Purpose: To contribute with recommendations for communication therapy in people with MS. Method: narrative literature review related to the topic. Results: There are few investigations focused on the intervention of communication in people with MS, those found are works in small populations, with evaluations at the beginning and at the end of therapy. The most promising studies are those that show specific effects on speech, through the LSVT LOUD, which not only improves communicative effectiveness, but has also shown improvements in dysphagia (eating disorder). significant to consider interventions with the environment and aimed at the quality of life of the affected individuals and families. Conclusions: The different presentations that MS has and its individual characteristics in each person, makes it difficult to have specific evidence on the most effective types of therapy. Despite this, it is possible to use therapies focused on different communication symptoms and adapt them under certain considerations to address communication in people with MS

On the HKUST-1/GO and HKUST-1/rGO Composites: The Impact of Synthesis Method on Physicochemical Properties

The chemical stability and adsorptive/catalytic properties of the most widely studied metal–organic framework (MOF), which is HKUST-1, can be improved by its combination with graphene oxide (GO) or reduced graphene oxide (rGO). The chemistry of GO or rGO surfaces has a significant impact on their interaction with MOFs. In this work, we demonstrate that GO and rGO interaction with HKUST-1 influences the morphology and textural properties but has no impact on the thermal stability of the final composites. We also show that synthesis environment, e.g., stirring, to some extent influences the formation of HKUST-1/GO and HKUST-1/rGO composites. Homogeneous samples of the sandwich-type composite can be obtained when using reduced graphene oxide decorated with copper (Cu/rGO), which, owing to the presence of Cu sites, allows the direct crystallisation of HKUST-1 and its further growth on the graphene surface. This work is the first part of our research on HKUST-1/GO and HKUST-1/rGO and deals with the influence of the type of graphene material and synthesis parameters on the composites’ physicochemical properties that were determined by using X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis
