    Mental illness is a global health problem that affects one in four people around the world. Despite its high incidence, there is strong social discrimination towards this population (WHO, 2004). Different professionals encounter, in their daily performance, situations of interaction with these patients and may act as stigma perpetuators if they display negative attitudes of fear and hostility (Roos and Goldner, 2009). Likewise, contact with these mental ill patients will condition their attitudes toward the disease. The aim of this study was to examine the attitudes of future professionals of Health Sciences toward mental ill patients, compared with students of other knowledge fields, and to explore if maintaining contact with these patients can modify these attitudes. The questionnaire “Opinions concerning mental illness” (Ozamiz, 1980) was administered to 820 students (70.37% women and 29.63% men) from different degrees of Health Sciences, and Social and Legal Sciences. This scale assessed global Attitude and five subscales (Negativism, Social Etiology, Authoritarianism, Restrictivism, and Prejudice), obtaining a reliability higher than .7 in Negativism and Social Etiology. Results indicated that Health Sciences students show lower levels of Negativism towards mental ill patients than students in Social and Legal Sciences degrees, regardless of the contact maintained. In addition, students who report contact with these patients have lower levels of Negativism, not differing in a statistically significant way neither in the general Attitude, nor in social Etiology, and regardless of the university degree. These results seem to indicate that negative attitudes toward mental ill patients is lower among Health Sciences students and among students who have contact with this population compared with Social and Legal Science ones.La enfermedad mental es un problema de salud a nivel mundial que afecta a una de cada cuatro personas. A pesar de su elevada incidencia, existe una fuerte discriminación social sobre estos enfermos (OMS, 2004). Diversos profesionales se encuentran en su desempeño diario situaciones de interacción con estos pacientes pudiendo actuar como perpetuadores del estigma si muestran actitudes negativas de miedo y hostilidad (Roos y Goldner, 2009). Asimismo, el contacto con estos enfermos mentales condicionará las actitudes hacia la propia enfermedad. El objetivo de este estudio es conocer las actitudes hacia los enfermos mentales de los futuros profesionales de Ciencias de la Salud, en comparación con el alumnado de otras ramas de conocimiento, y explorar si mantener contacto con estos enfermos puede modificar dicha actitud. Se administró el cuestionario “Opiniones sobre la enfermedad mental” (Ozamiz, 1980) a 820 estudiantes (70,37% mujeres y 29,63% hombres) de diferentes titulaciones de Ciencias de la Salud y Ciencias Sociales y Jurídicas. Esta escala informa sobre la Actitud general y 5 subdimensiones (Negativismo, Etiología social, Autoritarismo, Restrictividad y Prejuicio), obteniendo una fiabilidad superior a .7 en Negativismo y Etiología Social. Los resultados indican que los estudiantes de Ciencias de la Salud muestran menores niveles de Negativismo hacia el enfermo mental que el alumnado de Ciencias Sociales y Jurídicas, independientemente del contacto mantenido. Además, los estudiantes que manifiestan haber tenido contacto con estos enfermos presentan menores niveles de Negativismo, no diferenciándose de forma  estadísticamente significativa ni en la Actitud general, ni en Etiología social, con independencia de la titulación cursada. Estos resultados parecen indicar que una actitud negativa hacia el enfermo mental es menor entre el alumnado de Ciencias de la Salud en comparación con las Ciencia Sociales y Jurídicas, y entre los que han mantenido contactos con enfermos mentales

    Association of physical behaviours with sarcopenia in older adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies

    Get PDF
    Background: Physical behaviours (ie, physical activity and sedentary behaviour) might have a role in the development of sarcopenia, although the evidence is unclear. We aimed to explore the association of total and intensity-specific levels of physical activity and sedentary behaviour with sarcopenia and its components (ie, muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance) in older adults. Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis and searched MEDLINE (via PubMed), Scopus, and Web of Science from inception to July 26, 2022, for peer-reviewed, observational studies or baseline data from randomised clinical trials conducted in older adults (ie, individual age ≥60 years or mean age ≥65 years) and published in English that reported on the association of physical activity or sedentary behaviour or both with sarcopenia (or its determinants: muscle mass or strength, and physical performance). Physical activity and sedentary behaviour were measured by any method. The main outcome was sarcopenia, which could be diagnosed by any means. Estimates were extracted and pooled using Bayesian meta-analytic models and publication bias was assessed using the Egger's test. This study is registered with PROSPERO, CRD42022315865. Findings: We identified 15 766 records, of which 124 studies (230 174 older adults; 121 301 [52·7%] were female and 108 873 [47·3%] were male) were included in the systematic review. 86 studies were subsequently included in the meta-analysis. Higher levels of total physical activity were inversely associated with sarcopenia both cross-sectionally (21 studies, n=59 572; odds ratio 0·49, 95% credible interval 0·37–0·62) and longitudinally (four studies, n=7545; 0·51, 0·27–0·94). A protective association was also identified for moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in cross-sectional research (five studies, n=6787; 0·85, 0·71–0·99), whereas no association was identified for the remaining physical behaviours (ie, steps, light physical activity, or sedentary behaviour). Interpretation: Total and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity are inversely associated with sarcopenia. These findings might support the importance of moderate-to-vigorous, rather than light, intensity physical activity-based interventions to prevent sarcopenia. Funding: None.

    La compañía RAMO con más de 70 años en el mercado, en la elaboración de productos de trigo como panes, galletas, tortas y pasabocas, cuenta con un equipo humano de 2.557 colaboradores aproximadamente; que han trabajado conjuntamente en busca de un crecimiento sostenido y rentabilidad, donde la gestión de la fuerza de ventas juega un papel importante dentro de la compañía, pues son quienes conducen a la empresa a la obtención de los resultados deseados. Es necesario aclarar que dicha fuerza en recursos humanos, no solo se limita a vender un producto que alguien necesite, se deben considerar factores como el cumplimiento de un programa de capacitaciones como estrategia de venta ya que este se basa en un proceso de formación que brinda herramientas nuevas a los vendedores para ayudar a ser más eficaces en las ventas. No obstante, se evidencia una oportunidad de mejora, ya que analizado el programa de capacitaciones se evidencia la ausencia de KPI´s claves de negocio que permitan analizar la eficacia de las capacitaciones. De acuerdo con lo anterior, este proyecto de investigación tiene como objetivo diseñar indicadores para medir la efectividad del programa de capacitación formal que se suministra a los empleados, y de esta manera se podrán aplicar oportunidades de mejora en el proceso a fin de lograr impactos de desempeño positivos en el recurso humano de la compañía.The RAMO company, with more than 70 years in the market, in the elaboration of wheat products such as breads, cookies, cakes and snacks, has a human team of approximately 2,557 collaborators; who have worked together in search of sustained growth and profitability, where sales force management plays an important role within the company, since they are the ones who lead the company to obtain the desired results. It is necessary to clarify that said force in human resources, are not only limited to selling a product that someone needs, factors such as compliance with a training program should be considered as a sales strategy since this is based on a training process that provides new tools to sellers to help them be more effective in sales. However, an opportunity for improvement is evident, since after analyzing the training program, the absence of key business KPIs that allow analyzing the effectiveness of the training is evident. In accordance with the above, this research project aims to design indicators to measure the effectiveness of the formal training program provided to employees, and in this way improvement opportunities can be applied in the process in order to achieve impacts of positive performance in the company's human resources

    The project Teaching Writing, Language Alive in the Classroom: An Experience of Teacher Self-Training in Didactic, developed by the semillando group, comes from a critical look of our practices and concepts about writing and its teaching and learning processes in the first cycle of education. This reflection led us to initiate an investigation in our schools which would allow us to articulate the theoretical conceptions and achievements in the classroom. One of the first results of this process is the transformation of the reflection on the practices in investigative actions, among which these stand out: reading reality, formulating the research project as a guide of the pedagogical practices, the approach to research in the classroom and the formulation of a didactic proposal for the development of writing in the first season.El proyecto surge de una mirada crítica de las prácticas y concepciones sobre los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje de la escritura en el aula de primer ciclo. Esta reflexión condujo a iniciar un proceso de investigación que permitiera articular las concepciones teóricas y las realizaciones del aula. Uno de los primeros resultados de este proceso es la transformación de la reflexión sobre las prácticas en acciones investigativas entre las cuales se destacan las siguientes: la lectura de la realidad, la formulación del proyecto de investigación como orientador de la práctica pedagógica, el abordaje de la investigación en el aula y la formulación de una propuesta didáctica para el desarrollo de la escritura significativa en el primer ciclo

    Dissecting the morphological and spectroscopic properties of galaxies in the local Universe: I. Elliptical galaxies

    Full text link
    We revisit the scaling relations and star-forming histories of local elliptical galaxies using a novel selection method applied to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR7. We combine two probability-based automated spectroscopic and morphological classifications of about 600000 galaxies with z<0.25 to isolate true elliptical galaxies. Our sample selection method does not introduce artificial cuts in the parameters describing the galaxy but instead it associates to every object a weight measuring the probability of being in a given spectro-morphological class. Thus the sample minimizes the selection biases. We show that morphologically defined ellipticals are basically distributed in 3 spectral classes, which dominate at different stellar masses. The bulk of the population (about 50%) is formed by a well defined class of galaxies with old stellar populations that formed their stars at very early epochs in a short episode of star formation. They dominate the scaling relations of elliptical galaxies known from previous works and represent the canonical elliptical class. At the low mass end, we find a population of slightly larger ellipticals, with smaller velocity dispersions at fixed stellar mass, which seem to have experienced a more recent episode of star formation probably triggered by gas-rich minor mergers. The high mass end tends to be dominated by a third spectral class, slightly more metal rich and with more efficient stellar formation than the reference class. This third class contributes to the curvature of the mass-size relation at high masses reported in previous works. Our method is therefore able to isolate typical spectra of elliptical galaxies following different evolutive pathways.Comment: 15 pages, 16 figures. Accepted for publication in A&
