Entre las conclusiones o reflexiones se obtuvo que hay entornos familiares con grandes necesidades que requieren de orientación para cumplir de manera acertada la tarea y enorme responsabilidad de ser padres, y que además compartan con los docentes de una forma asertivaThe present investigation proposes to generate a new vision of the school for parents around the social reflection from the different actors. The epistemology - methodology was worked under a qualitative approach, sociocritical paradigm and the Action Research method, communication was established with key informants using observation and in-depth interviews as techniques for the collection of information, for the analysis of the data was made a triangulation and contrast. Among the conclusions or reflections was that there are family environments with great needs that require guidance to fulfill the task and the enormous responsibility of being parents, and also share with teachers in an assertive manne

Adolescent Bullying Victimization and Life Satisfaction: Can Family and School Adult Support Figures Mitigate this Effect?

Indexación: Scopus.Existen pocos estudios que vinculen la victimización sufrida por bullying con la satisfacción con la vida. Por ello, este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar el efecto mitigador del apoyo de figuras adultas (padres, madres y adultos de la escuela) sobre la relación de la victimización por bullying y la satisfacción con la vida en adolescentes. Con este fin, se evalúa una muestra de 5774 adolescentes provenientes de 71 escuelas públicas ubicadas en barrios violentos de Lima, Perú. Para ello, se realiza un análisis de moderación para evaluar el rol de las figuras adultas de apoyo en la casa y la escuela. Los resultados muestran que el apoyo de los adultos en casa mitiga la relación negativa entre la victimización y la satisfacción con la vida. Este efecto es mayor en el caso del apoyo adulto en la casa. El apoyo brindado por los adultos, tanto en la casa como en la escuela, favorece que los adolescentes que padecen de una alta prevalencia de victimización puedan mantener niveles superiores de satisfacción con la vida respecto a los adolescentes que perciben bajo apoyo de los adultos. Finalmente, se discute la necesidad de que adultos en la escuela y padres realicen acciones coordinadas para prevenir y disminuir la prevalencia de este tipo de violencia entre compañeros/as.There are still few studies relating bullying victimization and life satisfaction. This study aimed to assess the mitigating effect of adult figures support (at school and home) on the relationship between bullying victimization and life satisfaction experienced by adolescents. To this end, a sample of 5774 adolescents from 71 public schools located throughout the violent neighborhoods of Lima (Perú) was evaluated. A moderation analysis was performed to assess the moderating role of support adult figures from home and school. The results show that the support of adults at home and school mitigate the negative effect of bullying victimization on life satisfaction, and this effect is larger in the case of adult home support. Adult support at home and school help students with high prevalence of bullying victimization maintain high levels of life satisfaction compared to adolescents with low support from adults. Finally, the need for adults at school and home to take joint measures to prevent and reduce the prevalence of this type of peer violence is discussed.https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1136103417302332?via%3Dihu

Design of a control and monitoring system to reduce traffic accidents due to drowsiness through image processing

It is known that 33% of traffic accidents worldwide are caused by drunk driving or drowsiness [1] [2], so a drowsiness level detection system that integrates image processing was developed with the use of Raspberry Pi3 with the OpenCV library; and sensors such as MQ-3 that measures the percentage of alcohol and the S9 sensor that measures the heart rate. In addition, it has an alert system and as an interface for the visualization of the data measured by the sensors a touch screen. With the image processing technique, facial expressions are analyzed, while physiological behaviors such as heart rate and alcohol percentage are measured with the sensors. In image test training you get an accuracy of x in a response time of x seconds. On the other hand, the evaluation of the operation of the sensors in 90% effective. So the method developed is effective and feasibl

Effectiveness of psychometric tests for the selection of personnel in jobs in the retail sector

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of psychometric tests in the selection of person- nel in retail sector jobs. The study used the scientific deductive method of explanatory level, with non- experimental design on companies in the retail sector in the region of Junín, Peru. The most relevant psychometric tests in the study was the interview whose intention was to go into the life of the interviewee ensuring, suggestions, opinions and behavioral attitudes, knowledge tests to assess the capabilities and skills of the candidate and finally personality tests that allow to know the working relationship, perfor- mance, satisfaction and staff turnover. The results generated through structural equations, show that the interview, positively influences the selection of personnel (p<0.05). In relation to knowledge tests based on IQ, the results reveal that it had a positive impact on personnel selection (p<0.05). Finally, personality tests based on psychological traits, significantly influence in personnel selection (p<0.05). The conclu- sion of the study indicates that the interview, knowledge tests and personality tests in the selection of personnel contribute to the efficiency of the human resources area, thus optimizing the resources of the organization

Current and desired organizational culture of the financial system of the province of Huancayo, Peru

The objective of this investigation was to identify the current organizational culture of the financial system of the province of Huancayo and the culture that they wanted, to serve as a complement to the traditional indicators of the sector. The Organizational Cul- ture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) was practiced on 412 workers from 16 financial in- stitutions. It is a quantitative, non-experimental and descriptive study

Development of a Biodegradable Detergent Based on Quinoa as an Alternative to Minimize Eutrophication

Synthetic detergents were created more than a century ago and their use has been essential, however, during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the Ministry of Health issued recommendations for hygiene and disinfection in which the use of these detergents was further enhanced. Due to this problem, it was proposed to develop a biodegradable detergent with low concentrations of compounds containing phosphorus and nitrogen, in order to minimize eutrophication in surface bodies that cause ecosystemic imbalances. The experiment consisted of washing two garments in the same conditions (dirty) and each one with each detergent (conventional and biodegradable), as a result it was obtained that both garments were clean after washing. For the laboratory analysis, wastewater samples were taken from each container. The results obtained from the laboratory were as follows: the conventional detergent had the following concentrations: pH (11.25), T° (12.3 °C), Conductivity (11,350 uS/cm), Phosphorus (4.11 mg/L) and total Nitrogen (20.16 mg/L); while for the biodegradable detergent the resulting concentrations were: pH (7.02), T° (12.6 °C), Conductivity (445 uS/cm), Phosphorus (0.318 mg/L) and total Nitrogen (<1.00 mg/L). Finally, the biodegradable detergent proved to have the same efficiency and minimize eutrophication

The global abundance of tree palms

Aim Palms are an iconic, diverse and often abundant component of tropical ecosystems that provide many ecosystem services. Being monocots, tree palms are evolutionarily, morphologically and physiologically distinct from other trees, and these differences have important consequences for ecosystem services (e.g., carbon sequestration and storage) and in terms of responses to climate change. We quantified global patterns of tree palm relative abundance to help improve understanding of tropical forests and reduce uncertainty about these ecosystems under climate change. Location Tropical and subtropical moist forests. Time period Current. Major taxa studied Palms (Arecaceae). Methods We assembled a pantropical dataset of 2,548 forest plots (covering 1,191 ha) and quantified tree palm (i.e., ≥10 cm diameter at breast height) abundance relative to co‐occurring non‐palm trees. We compared the relative abundance of tree palms across biogeographical realms and tested for associations with palaeoclimate stability, current climate, edaphic conditions and metrics of forest structure. Results On average, the relative abundance of tree palms was more than five times larger between Neotropical locations and other biogeographical realms. Tree palms were absent in most locations outside the Neotropics but present in >80% of Neotropical locations. The relative abundance of tree palms was more strongly associated with local conditions (e.g., higher mean annual precipitation, lower soil fertility, shallower water table and lower plot mean wood density) than metrics of long‐term climate stability. Life‐form diversity also influenced the patterns; palm assemblages outside the Neotropics comprise many non‐tree (e.g., climbing) palms. Finally, we show that tree palms can influence estimates of above‐ground biomass, but the magnitude and direction of the effect require additional work. Conclusions Tree palms are not only quintessentially tropical, but they are also overwhelmingly Neotropical. Future work to understand the contributions of tree palms to biomass estimates and carbon cycling will be particularly crucial in Neotropical forests

Artificial intelligence applied in Human Medicine with the implementation of prostheses

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine is already a reality. Everywhere there is talk of the advantages that AI can mean for the future in our daily lives, as well as its possible applications. The future of "standard" medical practice could appear here ahead of schedule, where a patient could go to a computer before seeing a doctor. Through advances in AI, it becomes more possible for the days of misdiagnosis and treatment of the symptoms of the disease, rather than its root cause, to be left behind. Think about how many years of blood pressure measurements you have or how much storage you would need to remove so that you can fit a complete 3D image of an organ on your laptop. The idea of artificial intelligence in medicine may make you think of robots roaming the halls of a hospital in the distant future, but AI is already here
