Retos de la educación ciudadana del siglo XXI. Implicaciones curriculares
Postmodern society features demand important changes to current education in view of the effects of some human activities. Since civic education is meant to be the key to changing long-established patterns of social behaviour and since it is this human behaviour responsible for most of the problems caused not only in the social environment but in the natural and technological as well some educational theories such as civic or environmental education, etc, have been studied as measures to solve these problems in the age of the human rights implementation.
The article examines the state of affairs concerning these educational theories by reflective analysis with the purpose of finding out, on the one hand, interelationships between civic, environmental and global education and, on the other, basic implications for curriculum innovation at the beginning of the 21st century
Revista complutense de educación
Resumen basado en el de la publicaciónLa Educación Ambiental (EA) es considerada como una medida importante para frenar la degradación medioambiental. Sin embargo, para conseguir la función la educación ambiental ha de llevarse a la práctica; pues los sistemas educativos vigentes no parecen tener claro el tipo de cambio que se requiere para implementar el nuevo concepto educativo. Se pretende desarrollar un modelo conceptual que facilite la comprensión de los múltiples factores implicados en el marco teórico de la educación ambiental contribuyendo a resolver una de las mayores dificultades en el sentido. El desarrollo del modelo se inicia a partir del análisis del propio objeto de la educación ambiental que ha de facilitar la comprensión integrada o pensamiento global en la práctica educativa mediante el entendimiento de los problemas medioambientales. Se presenta la primera parte de la investigación concerniente al citado modelo.ES
Emotional or rational product labeling using Galvanic Skin Response
En la investigación sobre las decisiones de compra del consumidor, históricamente ha habido una dualidad constante entre la presencia o ausencia de emociones y su papel. Históricamente se han observado interferencias con el proceso óptimo, ya que sería racional y cognitivo. Desde finales de los 70, surgieron investigaciones que defendían la importancia de los procesos emocionales en la toma de decisiones. Los últimos estudios también persisten en la idea de que las emociones están presentes en todas las decisiones de compra de productos. Pero, ¿ocurre con la misma intensidad en todos los tipos de productos? En este trabajo de investigación, se propone un experimento para clasificar diferentes productos en dos categorías, una que concentra aquellos productos que generan una respuesta emocional más intensa y otra con menos intensidad. Esta categorización es interesante para aquellos experimentos en los que es necesario, ya sea por tratamiento estadístico o por otras razones, agrupar productos por respuesta emocional.In the research on consumer purchasing decisions, there has historically been a constant duality between the presence or absence of emotions and their role.

Imported Human West Nile Virus Lineage 2 Infection in Spain: Neurological and Gastrointestinal Complications
We report the first human case of West Nile virus (WNV) lineage 2 infection imported to Spain by a traveler returning from Romania. Serum, cerebrospinal fluid and urine samples were analyzed and West Nile virus infection was identified by PCR and serological tests. The patient developed fever, diarrhea and neurological symptoms, accompanied by mild pancreatitis, described previously in very few cases as a complication of WNV infection and by alithiasic cholecystitis. Viral RNA was detected in urine until 30 days after the onset of symptoms and neutralizing antibodies were detected at very low titers. The phylogenetic analysis in a fragment of the NS5 gene of the virus showed a homology with sequences from WNV lineage 2 belonging to the monophyletic Central/Southern European group.This work was partially funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III Projects “PI14CIII/00014” and “PI19CIII_00014”.S
