Por una psicologĂa positiva transpersonal. Respuesta a Mario Sabán
En este artĂculo se analiza la propuesta teĂłrica de Mario Sabán, relacionándola con la psicologĂa existencial de Frankl, la psicologĂa interdividual de Girard y la psicologĂa transpersonal de Wilber. La revisiĂłn que Sabán realiza de la psicologĂa positiva de Seligman, desde la mĂstica judĂa, conjuga con el concepto de sentido vital de raĂz fenomenolĂłgico- existencial y con el modelo integral de Wilber, que tambiĂ©n aborda los mundos cosmogĂłnicos, abriendo una visiĂłn trascendente de la vida psĂquica y social, estructuradas en varios niveles. Sabán aplica la estructura de la mĂstica judĂa y pone en evidencia que, para tratar la felicidad, la psicologĂa positiva no pasa solo por los mundos de la creaciĂłn, la psique y la acciĂłn, marginando a Ein Sof, el mundo superior. La psicologĂa existencial aborda el sentido, aunque lo sesga. No asĂ la psicologĂa interdividual, que se sustenta en el deseo mimĂ©tico y en el triángulo de deseo Yo-TĂş-Él, que es la base del comportamiento; uno de los vĂ©rtices está en Ein Sof y es un TĂş sujeto y objeto de deseo, como lo son el yo y los demás. Proponemos la necesidad de desarrollar una teorĂa del conocimiento psicolĂłgico integradora, fundamentada en una hermenĂ©utica de los significados.
PALABRAS CLAVE: psicologĂa positiva, psicologĂa interdividual, triángulo del deseo, psicologĂa transpersonal.
For a Transpersonal Positive Psychology.Response to Mario Sabán
ABSTRACT: In this article, Mario Sabán’s theoretical proposal is analyzed by relating it to Frankl’s existential psychology, Girard’s interdividual psychology, and Wilber’s transpersonal psychology. Sabán’s review of Seligman’s positive psychology, from Jewish mysticism, is coherent with the concept of the phenomenological-existential sense of living and with Wilber’s integral model, which also deals with cosmogonist worlds, thus opening a transcendent vision of psychic and social life, structured at different levels. Sabán applies the structure of Jewish mysticism and shows that, to tackle happiness, positive psychology does not only go through the worlds of creation, psyche and action, disregarding Ein Sof, the superior world. Existential psychology deals with the sense, although it twists it. This is not the case of interdividual psychology, which is based on mimetic desire and the triangle of desire I-You-Him, which is the basis of behaviour; one of the vertices is in Ein Sof and it is a You subject and object of desire, such as I and the others. We propose the need to develop an integrating theory of psychological knowledge, based on the hermeneutics of meanings.
KEYWORDS: Positive psychology, interdividual psychology, triangle of desire, transpersonal psychology

Optimizing Product pricing and sales forecasting through advanced data science: a case study at Schneider Electric Iberia
Treballs finals del Mà ster de Fonaments de Ciència de Dades, Facultat de matemà tiques, Universitat de Barcelona. Curs: 2022-2023. Tutor: Enrique Ayala Mora i Marina Herrera InsuelaIn the increasingly competitive global business milieu, product pricing optimization and accurate sales forecasting are paramount. This MSc thesis probes these critical areas in relation to Schneider Electric Iberia, a front-runner in the digital conversion of energy management and automation. Our emphasis is on the adoption of cutting-edge data science methodologies, including econometrics, Machine Learning, causality analysis, and Deep Learning, with a goal to both predict sales and optimize price-points considering the demand elasticity of diverse products across various markets.
The thesis initiates with an in-depth analysis of Schneider Electric’s extant pricing and sales forecasting systems, proceeding to the selection of suitable data science techniques for enhancement. Utilizing these methods, we devise and deploy a pricing optimization model aimed at augmenting revenue or sales volume. This model’s potential is then harnessed for sales forecasting, measuring its influence on the company’s operations in aspects like efficiency, profitability, and strategic decision-making amplifications.
Our methodology pivots on comprehensive data collection, meticulous preprocessing, and insightful exploratory data analysis. We leverage the benefits of Graph Causal Models for price optimization and the innovative Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT) for sales forecasting, conjuring a formidable tool for strategic planning. The optimized prices and predictive sales model converge on an interactive Tableau dashboard, endowing Schneider Electric Iberia with a user-friendly, accessible platform for data-driven decision making. This study aims to empower Schneider Electric Iberia, while also making a noteworthy contribution to the wider field of industrial technology and the deployment of AI in product pricing and sales forecasting
Las arquitecturas del pensar
In this paper, we suggest that architectures, especially sacred ones, play a significant role to shape cognition. Therefore, cognition is the result of the relationships between the subjects and their surroundings. By sharing the same environment and the relationships with it, the members of a community would weave “common-sense”, as a common attitude towards what they define as the “reality”. This shared set of values, methods, and attitudes shapes all kinds of cultural artifacts, like language and performative actions.
The effect of natural languages on cognition has been intensively studied by philosophers, linguists, and other cognitive scientists; however, the role of thinking architectures seems underrepresented by them. Although the design of the living spaces greatly contributes to the nurtural formation of our cognition, it has been historically underestimated or neglected
