Emotional intelligence: a world for discovering beyond knowledge
La sociedad está en continuo cambio y los niños actualmente necesitan una educación diferente a la tradicional, que atienda sus características y tenga en cuenta sus emociones y pensamientos personales, es decir, una educación que desarrolle la inteligencia emocional. Ésta, desarrolla una serie de habilidades y destrezas necesarias para la formación integral de la persona y su capacitación para la vida. ¿Cómo? A través del juego. Diversos estudios verifican la correlación positiva entre la inteligencia emocional y el éxito académico, laboral y para la vida, siendo una forma de prevenir los comportamientos de riesgo muy frecuentes en nuestro alumnado.Society is changing frequently. Nowadays, children need to learn through innovative teaching instead of traditional education because it develops the emotional intelligence considering children’s characteristics, their emotions and feelings. Emotional intelligence develops series of abilities and skills required for people’s comprehensive training and for living. How? By way of game. Diverse studies verify a positive correlation between emotional intelligence and being successful at school, at work and in the life as well as it is a way to prevent inappropriate behaviours, which are more and more usual along young people, such as drug addiction, violence, violation and suicide
Fam i Guerra a Catalunya. Memòria i estratègies de supervivència 1936- 1959
Barcelona, 1937. Són les cinc de la matinada, i comencen a formar-se les primeres cues davant els establiments flequers i els economats. Dones i nens tenen la missió d’abastir d’aliments al seu nucli familiar; malgrat que els comerços no obriran fins com a mínim passades dues hores, l’espera i la paciència no són suficients per permetre que tothom que està a la cua aconsegueixi aliments. Qui sí n’aconsegueixi tampoc podrà saltar d’alegria, perquè el que s’endurà cap a casa serà una quantitat irrisòria de menjar que s’haurà de repartir entre les boques dels familiars...
Manejo terapéutico y comorbilidades del paciente con dependencia a opiáceos, en programa de terapia sustitutiva: Estudio PROTEUS
Resumen Objetivo Analizar la necesidad de realizar un estudio epidemiológico de pacientes dependientes de opiáceos centrado en conocer más sus tratamientos, comorbilidades médicas y psiquiátricas. Material y métodos Se examinó la necesidad de tener datos disponibles en nuestro medio sobre el manejo clínico de estos pacientes, el tipo de tratamiento y las posibles comorbilidades. No existen datos completos, representativos de los pacientes españoles. Por ello se seleccionó una muestra representativa a nivel nacional, a partir de la población de pacientes dependientes de opiáceos en programas de mantenimiento con agonistas opiáceos que acudían a los centros asistenciales de drogodependencias. Resultados El estudio final incluyó una población representativa de 624 pacientes dependientes a opiáceos en programas de mantenimiento con agonistas, procedentes de 74 centros de asistencia al dependiente de opiáceos de toda España. Conclusiones Se conocen poco los datos sobre la comorbilidad psicopatológica y médica y los tratamientos farmacológicos en pacientes dependientes de opiáceos. Es necesario realizar un estudio epidemiológico amplio que actualice la realidad de la práctica clínica habitual del paciente dependiente de opiáceos en España (manejo terapéutico, comorbilidades, etc.) valore la gravedad de su adicción, la repercusión sobre el tipo de tratamiento, la presencia de patología dual y las repercusiones médicas. Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to analyze the need for an epidemiological study of opiate-dependent patients aiming to improve the knowledge about their treatment and medical and psychiatric comorbidities. Matherial and methods Data on clinical management, treatment type, and comorbidities in Spain were examined. There are no comprehensive data, representative of the Spanish patients. Therefore, a national representative sample was selected from opiate-dependent patients ongoing replacement therapy programs, attending care centers for opiatedependent patients. Results The representative sample included 624 opiate-dependent patients ongoing opiate replacement therapy programs from 74 drug-dependent rehabilitation centers in Spain. Conclusions Data on therapeutic management and psychiatric and medical comorbidities in opiate-dependent patients are not well known. There is a need for a comprehensive epidemiological study to update the reality of clinical practice of opioiddependent patients in Spain (therapeutic management, comorbidities, etc.) assessing the severity of their addiction, the impact on the type of treatment, the presence of dual pathology and medical implications
The Use of Video-Gaming Devices as a Motivation for Learning Embedded Systems Programming
As embedded systems are becoming prevalent in everyday life, many universities are incorporating embedded systems-related courses in their undergraduate curricula. However, it is not easy to motivate students in such courses, since they conceive of embedded systems as bizarre computing elements, different from the personal computers with which they are familiar.
This problem has been overcome at the University of Granada, Spain, by taking advantage of the connection many students have with video games.Spanish CICYT Project SAF2010-20558University of Granada Innovative Teaching Project 04-03-0
Hàbitat en cova i espai pels ramats ca.6200-6000 BP:La Cova Colomera (Prepirineu de Lleida) durant el Neolític Antic.
En aquest treball es presenten les dades referents a la Cova Colomera (Sant Esteve de la Sarga, Pallars Jussà) durant el Neolític cardial final. A partir de diferents sondejos duts a terme des de l'any 2005, s'ha pogut observar la varietat d'usos i funcionalitats del jaciment en moments potencialment sincrònics. Per una banda,una zona on predominen les estructures de caire domètic (fogars, fosses i forats de pal)que ens mostren les dades entorn a l'hàbitat al jaciment; i per altra banda, un gran sector de la cavitat dedicat a l'estabulació dels ramats amb sediments de tipus fumier i probablement també a l'emmagatzematge. Tot això succeix en unes datacions d'entre 6180 +/- 40 i 6020 +/- 510BP. Aquestes dades es contextualitzen amb les d'altres jaciments de la zona pirinenca, un àmbit que sempre ha estat definit en la bibliografia com un espai de pas entre diferents biòtops ecològics, de les plantes fèrtils a les pastures de l'estiu

Driving and legal status of Spanish opioid-dependent patients
Producción CientíficaBackground: Opioid dependent patients have legal problems, driving violations and accidents more frequently than the general population. We have hypothesized that those patients currently driving may have better legal outcomes than those who do not possess a valid driving license. With this aim we have analyzed the information gathered in the PROTEUS study regarding the legal and driving statuses and assessed the possible association between them. The PROTEUS study was an observational, cross-sectional, descriptive, multicenter nationwide representative study, conducted in Spanish healthcare centers for opioid dependent patients. Findings: The driving and legal statuses of a population of opioid dependent patients ≥18 years and enrolled in Opioid Agonist Therapy treatment centers in Spain, were assessed using a short specific questionnaire and the EuropASI questionnaire to highlight distinct individual clinical needs. 621 patients were evaluable (84% men, 24.5% active workers). 321 patients (52%) drove on a regular basis. Nineteen percent of patients had some problem with the criminal justice system. There was a significant difference (p = 0.0433) in status, according to the criminal justice system, between patients who drove on a regular basis and those who did not, with a higher percentage of patients with non-pending charges among usual drivers. Conclusions: Regular drivers showed fewer legal problems than non-regular drivers, with the exception of those related to driving (driving violations and drunk driving). Driving is a good prognostic factor for the social integration of the patients and policies should be implemented to enable these patients to drive safely under medical authorization. The legal description will be useful to assess treatment efficacy.Instituto de Salud Carlos III (grants RD06/0001/0020, RD06/0001/0018, RD12/0028/0012 and RD12/ 0028/0018
The contexts and early Acheulean archaeology of the EF-HR paleo-landscape (Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania).
Renewed fieldwork at the early Acheulean site of EF-HR (Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania) has included detailed stratigraphic studies of the sequence, extended excavations in the main site, and has placed eleven additional trenches within an area of nearly 1 km2, to sample the same stratigraphic interval as in the main trench across the broader paleo-landscape. Our new stratigraphic work suggests that EF-HR is positioned higher in the Bed II sequence than previously proposed, which has implications for the age of the site and its stratigraphic correlation to other Olduvai Middle Bed II sites. Geological research shows that the main EF-HR site was situated at the deepest part of an incised valley formed through river erosion. Archaeological excavations at the main site and nearby trenches have unearthed a large new assemblage, with more than 3000 fossils and artefacts, including a hundred handaxes in stratigraphic position. In addition, our test-trenching approach has detected conspicuous differences in the density of artefacts across the landscape, with a large cluster of archaeological material in and around the main trench, and less intense human activity at the same level in the more distant satellite trenches. All of these aspects are discussed in this paper in the light of site formation processes, behavioral contexts, and their implications for our understanding of the early Acheulean at Olduvai Gorge
