Emotion dysregulation and neuroticism as moderators of group Unified Protocol effectiveness outcomes for treating emotional disorders

The personality dimension neuroticism and difficulties in emotional regulation (ER) are two variables closely related to the onset, course, and maintenance of emotional disorders (EDs). The Unified Protocol for the Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders (UP) is a treatment specifically designed to address neuroticism by training in adaptive ER skills and has been shown to be effective in reducing difficulties in ER. However, the specific impact of these variables on treatment outcomes is not entirely clear. The aim of the present study was to explore the moderating role of neuroticism and difficulties in ER regarding the evolution of depressive and anxiety symptoms and quality of life. Methods: This secondary study included 140 participants diagnosed with EDs, who received the UP in group format as part of an RCT being conducted in different Spanish Public Mental Health Units. Results: The results of this study found that high scores in neuroticism and difficulties in ER were associated with greater severity of depression and anxiety symptomatology, and with poorer quality of life. In addition, difficulties in ER moderated the efficacy of UP regarding anxiety symptoms, and quality of life. No moderating effects were found for depression (p > 0.5). Limitations: We only evaluated two moderators that may influence UP effectivenes; other key moderators should be analyzed in future. Conclusions: The identification of specific moderators affecting transdiagnostic interventions outcomes will allow the development of personalized interventions and provide useful information to improve the psychopathology and well-being of people with ED

Understanding mountain soils : a contribution from mountain areas to the International Year of Soils 2015

A volcanic tuff rock known as cangahua (Ecuador) or tepetate (Mexico) is found throughout the Andes. Problems have arisen as the layers of light but fragile soil that once covered the tuff have been lost for both natural (environmental) reasons and because of over-cultivation. When the soil is gone, the tuff is impermeable and sterile. Now, a project in Ecuador has determined that the tuff itself can be reclaimed and is supporting a programme that sends bulldozers to the tuff regions to break up the rock and create a new fertile soil

El Programa de Investigación en Maíz: objetivos, resultados y proyecciones.

En el presente documento los autores reseñan lo que ha sido el Programa de Maíz en el ICA teniendo en cuenta los objetivos planteados, los resultados y las proyecciones propuestas. Para ello inicialmente, se muestra la importancia del maíz como alimento, el área cultivada, la producción y productividad a nivel nacional basandose en tablas que muestran series históricas desde 1950 hasta 1983 del área en producción y rendimiento en Colombia. Con el objeto de elevar los niveles de productividad de maíz, el ICA elaboró el Plan Nacional de Investigación en el Cultivo de Maíz, el cual hace parte del Plan Nacional de Investigación Agropecuaria del ICA(PLANIA) para 1981 a 1986 los objetivos del primer plan eran: obtener información básica y detectar los factores limitantes en la producción del maíz, determinar el grado de tecnología disponible, establecer prioriddades de investigación y formular los proyectos de investigación para los 5 años siguientes. Se realizaron investigacioes en fitomejoramiento, suelos, fisiología, fitopatología, entomología, recursos de agua y tierra, maquinaria agrícola, procesos agrícolas y todos los factaores socioeconómicos involucrados en el proceso de producción. Los resultados de este plan para 1983 muestran la producción de 73 diferentes tipos mejorados de maíz y el programa ha autorizado la comercialización de 9 genotipos de maíz. Se enumeran las empresas que también se dedican a la multiplicación, distribución y venta de semillas de maíz en Colombia Finalmente se enumeran los proyectos contemplados por el PLANIA en maíz, los cuales son los señalados anteriormente de los que se espera una respuesta efectia a los factores tecnológicos limitantes de la producción del cultivo de maízMaíz-Zea may

Selección de variables cuantitativas y clasificación de 22 acessiones de fríjol arbustivo (Phaseolus vulgaris L.).

La evaluación de 22 colectas y tres testigos de fríjol arbustivos procedentes de germoplasma de Corpoica en Mosquera, Colombia, permitió seleccionar variables que discriminan la variabilidad existente e identificar las colectas sobresalientes por parámetros morfológicos cuantitativos y componentes de rendimiento. Se seleccionaron las variables de mayor heredabilidad representadas por coeficiente de repetibilidad r 1 (Goodman y Paterniani, 1969), de las 24 variables cuantitativas en estudio, 14 cumplieron esta condición, las variables descartadas fueron las del estado de plántula, área foliar y rendimiento. El análisis por componentes principales de las 14 variables retenidas mostró como los tres primeros componentes explicaron el 88.49 por ciento de la variación total, donde los caracteres: días a floración, días a cosecha, peso de 100 semillas, número de semillas por vaina, ancho y longitud de la vaina, altura de cobertura, número de nudos, y longitud de epicotilo e hipocotilo fueron los que más aportaron a dicha variación. Las colectas del acervo Mesoamericano: Antioquia 21, Cauca 34 y Tolima 16, y del acervo Andino: Perú 5 (Poroto Largo) y Cundinamarca 148, presentaron el mejor comportamiento agronómico y alta variabilidad genética, por lo cual se considera de importancia en la conservación de su variabilidad y como posibles progenitoresFríjol-Phaseolus vulgari

Electron Spin Resonance Above Tc In Layered Manganites

We have performed electron spin resonance (ESR) and dc magnetization measurements on single crystals of La2(1-x)Sr1+2xMn2O7 up to 800 K with special emphasis on the x = 0.4 composition. The ESR linewidth shows behavior similar to that observed in the three-dimensional perovskites and above ∼500 K can be described by a universal expression ΔHpp(T)=[C/Tχ(T)]ΔHpp (∞). The linewidth and the resonance field become anisotropic below ∼500 K. The anisotropy in the resonance field is proportional to the magnetization M, and we concluded that it is intrinsic to the system. We show that demagnetization effects can explain only part of the anisotropy. The remainder arises from short-range uniaxial terms in the Hamiltonian that are associated with the crystal field and Dzialozhinsky-Moriya interactions. The anisotropy in the linewidth is attributed to the easy-plane ferromagnetic ordering, which also arises from the short-range anisotropy.631717441311744136Ruddlesden, S.N., Popper, P., (1958) Acta Crystallogr., 11, p. 54Moritomo, Y., Asamitsu, A., Kuwahara, H., Tokura, Y., (1996) Nature (London), 380, p. 141Causa, M.T., Tovar, M., Caneiro, A., Prado, F., Ibanez, G., Ramos, C.A., Butera, A., Oseroff, S.B., (1998) Phys.

Magnetic Structure Of Cerhin5 As A Function Of Pressure And Temperature

We report magnetic neutron-diffraction and electrical resistivity studies on single crystals of the heavy-fermion antiferromagnet CeRhIn5 at pressures up to 2.3 GPa. These experiments show that the staggered moment of Ce and the incommensurate magnetic structure change weakly with applied pressure up to 1.63 GPa, where resistivity, specific heat and nuclear quadrupole resonance measurements confirm the presence of bulk superconductivity. This work places important constraints on an interpretation of the relationship between antiferromagnetism and unconventional superconductivity in CeRhIn 5.692244031244036Heffner, R.H., Norman, M.R., (1996) Comments Condens.

Micro-level economic factors and incentives in Children's energy balance related behaviours findings from the ENERGY European cross-section questionnaire survey

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>To date, most research on obesogenic environments facing school children has focused on physical and socio-cultural environments. The role of economic factors has been investigated to a much lesser extent. Our objective was to explore the association of micro-level economic factors and incentives with sports activities and intake of soft drinks and fruit juice in 10-12 year-old school children across Europe, and to explore price sensitivity in children’s soft drink consumption and correlates of this price sensitivity.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Data for the study originate from a cross-sectional survey undertaken in seven European countries (Belgium, Greece, Hungary, Netherlands, Norway, Slovenia and Spain) in 2010 among 10-12 year-old school children and their parents. In total, 7234 child questionnaires and 6002 parent questionnaires were completed. The child questionnaire included questions addressing self-reported weekly intake of soft drinks and fruit juices and time spent on sports activities, perception of parental support for sports activities, use of pocket money for soft drinks and perceived price responsiveness. Parent questionnaires included questions addressing the role of budget and price considerations in decisions regarding children’s sports activities, soft drink consumption, home practices and rules and socio-demographic background variables. Data were analysed using multiple linear regression and discrete-choice (ordered probit) modelling.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Economic factors were found to be associated with children’s sports participation and sugary drink consumption, explaining 27% of the variation in time for sports activities, and 27% and 12% of the variation in the children’s soft drink and juice consumption, respectively. Parents’ financial support was found to be an important correlate (Beta =0.419) of children’s sports activities. Children’s pocket money was a strong correlate (Beta =21.034) of soft drink consumption. The majority of the responding children reported to expect that significantly higher prices of soft drinks would lead them to buy less soft drinks with their own pocket money, but a majority of parents did not expect higher soft drink prices to reduce their children’s soft drink consumption.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>We conclude that economic factors, especially parents’ financial support and amount of pocket money, appear to be of importance for children’s sports participation and soft drink consumption, respectively.</p
