El análisis de las fortalezas psicológicas en la adolescencia: Más allá de los modelos de vulnerabilidad
Authors: Giménez Montse , Vázquez Carmelo , Hervás Gonzalo
Published: July 2017

Resumen: Frente a la imagen traumática y conflictiva que se asocia tradicionalmente a la adolescencia, desde el marco de la Psicología Positiva se ofrece una nueva conceptualización que sugiere una visión más optimista y positiva de este periodo de la vida. El estudio de las fortalezas humanas, término descrito por Peterson y Seligman (2004), ofrece un contexto potencialmente útil para conocer los aspectos y cualidades positivas de los más jóvenes y apuesta por un modelo de intervención centrado en las potencialidades frente al déficit. El presente artículo realiza una revisión sobre los resultados encontrados en la literatura que, de modo directo o indirecto, apoyan la existencia y relevancia de cada una de las fortalezas señaladas en el marco descriptivo de estos autores. Finalmente, discutimos las repercusiones que el estudio de las potencialidades puede tener en el desarrollo de programas educativos, de prevención y de intervención. The analysis of the psychological strengths in adolescence: Beyond vulnerability models Abstract: Against a traumatic and troubled image that is traditionally associated with adolescence, Positive Psychology opens a novel conceptual framework offering a more optimistic and positive view of this period of life. The study of ‘human strengths’, a term suggested by Peterson and Seligman (2004), offers a potentially useful tool to understand the positive aspects and features of the youth. That approach can also provide a model of intervention focusing on individual’s potentials rather than on deficits. This paper reviews the results found in the literature that directly or indirectly supports the existence and relevance of each of the strengths identified in the descriptive framework of these authors. Finally, we discuss the implications that the study of human strengths may have in the development of educational, preventive and intervention programs.
Fortalecimiento de competencias matemáticas tempranas en preescolares, un estudio chileno
Authors: Cerda Gamal , Pérez Carlos , Ortega Rosario , Lleujo Marianela , Sanhueza Luisa
Published: July 2017

Resumen: El artículo describe el efecto positivo de un programa de intervención basado en la comprensión del número en los niveles de competencia matemática temprana que presentan preescolares chilenos, en las áreas de competencias relacionales y numéricas evaluadas con el Test de Evaluación Matemática Temprana Utrech (TEMT-U), versión española del Utrecht Early Numeracy Test. El estudio permite constatar que existen diferencias significativas en el nivel de competencias matemáticas tempranas entre aquellos grupos sometidos a este tipo de programa por sobre aquellos que, en igual período de tiempo, sólo recibieron el influjo de los contenidos y actividades de la secuencia curricular tradicional para la población escolar chilena. Se observan efectos positivos del programa independientemente del nivel educativo al cual asisten los niños y niñas, y las competencias relacionales o piagetianas muestran niveles de logro superiores. Los resultados muestran que no se observan diferencias en los niveles de competencia matemática entre niños y niñas, contrariamente a lo que se observa en años posteriores. Strengthening early math skills in preschoolers, a Chilean study. Abstract: The article describes the positive effect in an intervention program based on number comprehension in early math skill levels that Chilean preschoolers present in the relational and numerical skill areas evaluated with the Test of Early Mathematics Assessment Utrecht (TEMT-U), the Spanish version of the Utrecht Early Numeracy Test. The study reveals that there are significant differences in the early math skills levels among those groups subjected to this type of program and those that in the same period of time were only influenced by the content and activities of the traditional curriculum sequence in the Chilean school population. There are positive effects in the program regardless of the educational level that children attend. There are also relational or skills Piagetian that show higher achievement levels. The results prove that there are no differences in mathematical literacy levels between boys and girls, contrary to what is observed in later years.
La evaluación formativa como innovación. Experiencias en una Facultad de Formación del Profesorado
Authors: Capllonch Bujosa Marta , Buscà Donet Francesc
Published: July 2017

Resumen: La evaluación en las Facultades de Formación del Profesorado supone la creencia de que la forma es el contenido, y que los que nos movemos en este tipo de entornos formativos disponemos de mayores y mejores recursos para afrontar la evaluación en la universidad. Sin embargo, la evaluación como objeto de estudio requiere, en esta o en cualquier otra institución educativa la recopilación de evidencias conforme da respuesta a una necesidad, y se adecua a un determinado contexto. En este trabajo se presenta el recorrido que ha realizado un grupo de innovación consolidado en evaluación formativa en la docencia universitaria de la Universidad de Barcelona, para llevar adelante sus sistemas de evaluación en diferentes grupos y asignaturas. Ciertamente, sus integrantes forman parte de estudios vinculados a la Formación de Maestros de Educación Primaria, pero no por ello se han formado o disponen de recursos que avalen una evaluación formativa, formadora, democrática y emancipadora como se requiere en el Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior. En primer lugar se presentan unas breves pinceladas de lo que supone innovar en la docencia universitaria, y de la evaluación como objeto de innovación. A continuación se exponen las diferentes líneas de trabajo llevadas a cabo hasta el momento, y sobre todo, y lo más importante, a modo de conclusiones, se muestran las opiniones de los participantes en la experiencia, sobre el papel que juegan los grupos de innovación en el desarrollo profesional de los docentes. The formative assessment as innovation. Formative and shared assessment experiences in a Faculty of Teacher Training Abstract: For many people the assessment in Faculties of Teacher Training supposes the belief that form is content, and that those of us who move in this type of formative environments have more and better resources to deal with the assessment in faculty. However the assessment as object of study requires in this or in any other educational institution the gathering of evidences as a response to a need and as adaptation in a given context. In this paper we present the trajectory that has made a consolidated innovation group in formative assessment in university teaching at the University of Barcelona, in order to further their assessment systems in different groups and subjects. It is true that its members are part of studies related to Teacher Training in Primary Education, although it does not mean that they have been trained or they have the resources to endorse a formative, democratic and emancipatory assessment as required in the European Higher Education Area. First we present a brief summery of what is innovation in university teaching, and assessment as an object of innovation. Then we explain the different lines of work carried out so far. Above all and most importantly we expose, by means of conclusion, what the group members consider that happens to those who live with innovation throughout their teaching.
Constructs and concepts comprising the stigma of mental illness
Authors: Michaels Patrick J. , López Marcelino , Rüsch Nicolas , Corrigan Patrick W.
Published: July 2017

Abstract: People with mental illness frequently confront public stigma and may experience self-stigma. This review discusses the concepts of mental illness stigma and its consequences for those with mental illness. After a conceptual overview of stigma prominent consequences pertaining to public stigma (i.e., employment, health care quality) and self-stigma (i.e., self-confidence, quality of life, “why try” effect) are reviewed. We discuss the three main public stigma change strategies - protest, education, and contact – as well as current selfstigma change strategies (e.g., psychoeducation, cognitive-behavioral therapy). We conclude by noting that anti-stigma initiatives with more tailored content for specific groups (e.g., police officers vs. general public) may diminish the negative consequences of mental illness stigma by providing more concrete ways to help stigmatized people.Constructos y conceptos abarcativos del estigma sobre la enfermedad mental Resumen: Las personas con enfermedades mentales con frecuencia se enfrentan al estigma público y pueden experimentar autoestigma. Esta revisión analiza los conceptos referidos al estigma de las enfermedades mentales y sus consecuencias para las personas que las padecen. Después de una visión global de carácter conceptual sobre el estigma, se examinan las consecuencias más importantes del estigma público (por ejemplo empleo y calidad de la atención) y del auto-estigma (por ejemplo auto confianza, calidad de vida o el efecto “por qué intentarlo”). Se discuten también las tres principales estrategias de cambio del estigma público - protesta, educación y contacto – así como las estrategias actuales de intervención sobre el auto-estigma (por ejemplo, psicoeducación y terapia cognitiva-conductual). Concluimos señalando que iniciativas anti-estigma con contenidos específicamente adaptados para grupos específicos (por ejemplo, agentes de policía frente al público en general) pueden disminuir las consecuencias negativas del estigma de la enfermedad mental proporcionando vías más concretas para ayudar a las personas estigmatizadas.
Diferencias de la población general en relación a los conoci- mientos, actitudes y conductas hacia el estigma en salud mental
Authors: Moreno Herrero Ana María , Sánchez Sánchez Francisca , López de Lemus Sarmiento Manuel
Published: July 2017

Resumen: Se estudia una muestra de 152 sujetos de la población de Almería capital con respecto al Estigma en Salud Mental con el objetivo de diseñar intervenciones anti-estigma específicas. Para ello se operativiza el Estigma en tres constructos: Conocimiento, Actitudes y Conducta utilizando las escalas MAKS, CAMI y RIBS respectivamente. Los resultados indican que los más jóvenes, menores de treinta y cinco años, son los que de forma significativa (p< .05) cuentan con menos conocimientos en Salud Mental relacionado con el Estigma. Así mismo se encuentran diferencias significativas entre sexos en referencia a la intención de conductas estigmatizantes (p= .049) y de actitudes estigmatizantes (p= .006) siendo los hombres los que tienden a exhibir intención de conducta y actitudes más estigmatizantes. Estos resultados junto con otros que nos muestran una correlación significativa entre Conocimientos y Conducta y por otro lado entre Actitudes y Conducta, nos sirven de guía en el diseño de intervenciones encaminadas a reducir el estigma en salud mental. Differences in general population on knowledge, attitudes and behaviour related to mental health stigma Abstract: Stigma in mental health is studied in a sample of 152 subjects of Almería city population with the aim of designing specific anti-stigma campaigns. For this, Stigma is operatized in three constructs: Knowledge, Attitudes and Behaviour, using MAKS, CAMI and RIBS scales for these. Results show that the younger group, under thirty-five years old are less knowledgeable about mental health related to stigma, showing a significant difference (p< .05). Moreover, we found significant differences in gender regarding the intention of stigmatizing behaviour (p=.049) as well as attitudes (p= .006) where men have more stigmatizing behaviour and attitudes than women. These results together with those that show a significant correlation between knowledge and behaviour, as well as between attitudes and behaviour will be used as a guide to design interventions aimed to reduce stigma in mental health.
Mindfulness y rendimiento deportivo
Authors: Mañas Israel , Del Águila Jesús , Franco Clemente , Gil Mª Dolores , Gil Consolación
Published: July 2017

Resumen: La inclusión del mindfulness en el deporte es un campo reciente. Mientras que la psicología del deporte ha dependido principalmente de la “segunda ola” de intervenciones cognitivo-conductuales durante las últimas cuatro décadas, una nueva aproximación que incluye al mindfulness se ha desarrollado recientemente: la “tercera ola”. Esta nueva aproximación asume la idea de que el rendimiento es un estado que no se basa en el auto-control o cambio del comportamiento, sino que es un estado que emerge del reconcomiendo y aceptación de los pensamientos, emociones y sensaciones corporales. La práctica del mindfulness permite aprender a observar y aceptar los pensamientos, emociones y sensaciones corporales sin intentar eliminarlos o modificarlos. Este trabajo revisa los dos principales programas de mindfulness para el rendimiento deportivo, ambos de la “tercera ola”: el Mindful Sport Performance Enhancement (MSPE) y el Mindfulness-Acceptance-Commitment (MAC). Mindfulness and sport performance Abstract: Mindfulness in sports is a recent field. While sport psychology relied mainly on “second wave” cognitive-behavioural interventions for the last four decades, a new approach has recently been developed in sport psychology including mindfulness: a “third wave” approach. This new approach assumes that ideal performance is a state that is not based on self-control or change in behaviour, but rather a state that arises from recognition and acceptance of thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations. Practicing mindfulness allows learns to observe and accept the thoughts, emotions, and body sensations, without making any attempt to eliminate or modify them. This paper reviews the main programs of mindfulness in sport performance both from the “third wave”: Mindful Sport Performance Enhancement (MSPE) and Mindfulness-Acceptance-Commitment (MAC).
Inclusión en deporte adaptado: dos caras de una misma moneda
Authors: Reina Raúl
Published: July 2017

Resumen: El presente ensayo pretende mostrar al lector los procesos inclusivos que en la actualidad se están dando en el ámbito del deporte adaptado. En una primera instancia, se aborda el concepto de inclusión, exponiendo las bases filosóficas y prácticas (incluso algunas legislativas) que sustentan la misma, ubicándolo en un modelo actual de consideración del usuario de actividades físicas y deportivas como ente que interactúa con las condiciones de práctica y los elementos que facilitan o dificultan la misma. En un segundo término, se aborda el proceso actual de inclusión para con las organizaciones de deporte adaptado, exponiendo algunas de las controversias derivadas de dicho proceso, especialmente en lo que se refiere a las clasificaciones funcionales, que perpetúan el discurso de las necesidades especiales. Finalizaremos con una propuesta de continuo de inclusión que matiza las posibilidades de práctica inclusiva y específica, pudiendo dar una respuesta más rica y variada a las necesidades del individuo; más allá de las dos caras opuestas de una misma moneda. Inclusion in adapted sport: two sides of the same coin Abstract: This paper shows current inclusionprocesses in adapted sports. First, some aspects about inclusion are discussed from philosophical and practice perspectives, and its relationship with a functional and health-related model related physical activity and sport activities where client interacts with the personal and environment factors (facilitators and barriers). Second, current inclusion process in sport organizations is explained, exposing some of the disputes arising from this process, especially in regard to functional classifications and its relation with the special needs discourse. Finally, we propose a continuum for inclusion in physical activity and sports, from specific to full inclusion that offers more opportunities and ways of practice; more than two faces of the same coin.
Social networking and privacy attitudes among college students
Authors: Carruth Kristen A. , Ginsburg Harvey J.
Published: July 2017

Abstract: Daily use of social networking sites (SNS) such as Facebook has become routine for millions of Internet users. Facebook is currently still the most popular social media site. Social networking has been rapidly adopted by societies around the world. In particular, social media like Facebook provide sites where users can personalize a profile with their information, pictures, and videos that can be shared with other users. This information can be used in ways that may violate users’ privacy with or without their knowledge. The hypotheses were that use of Facebook, user self-efficacy for social media and users’ general attitudes about privacy expectations are predictors of specific attitudes towards Facebook social media privacy, among a sample of 284, mostly white female, undergraduate college students in their twenties. Facebook self-efficacy and Facebook personal privacy violations were significant determinants of general Internet social media privacy concerns. However, Facebook use was not a significant factor for general Internet social media privacy concerns. Perceived benefits of Facebook generally appear to outweigh risks of disclosing personal information. Las redes sociales y las actitudes de privacidad entre los estudiantes universitarios Resumen: El uso diario de las redes sociales (SNS), tales como Facebook, se ha convertido en rutina para millones de usuarios de Internet. Facebook es actualmente todavía la red social más popular. Las redes sociales han sido rápidamente adoptadas por las sociedades de todo el mundo. En particular, las redes sociales como Facebook ofrecen sitios donde los usuarios pueden personalizar un perfil con sus datos, fotografías y vídeos que se pueden compartir con otros usuarios. Esta información se puede utilizar en maneras que pueden violar la privacidad de los usuarios, con o sin su conocimiento. Las hipótesis fueron que el uso de Facebook, la auto-eficacia del Usuario para los medios sociales y las actitudes generales de los usuarios acerca de las expectativas de privacidad se mostarían como predictores de las actitudes específicas hacia la privacidad de los medios de comunicación de Facebook en una muestra de 284 estudiantes universitarios de grado, en su mayoría mujeres blancas de unos veinte años. La autoeficacia en Facebook y las violaciones de privacidad personal en Facebook, fueron determinantes significativos de las preocupaciones sobrela privacidad general de los medios sociales en Internet. Sin embargo, el uso de Facebook no fue un factor significativo para la preocupación sobre la privacidad general de las redes sociales en internet. Los beneficios percibidos de Facebook en general parecen superar los riesgos percibidos sobre la revelación de información personal.
A study on the perception of the stigma related to drug use in a sample of Italians and Belgians
Authors: Scioli1 Giuseppe A. , Carmona-Torres José A , Paniccia Alex , Battista Andrea , Cavicchia Ilaria , Bishar Rachel M
Published: July 2017

ABSTRACT: The goal of the present study has been to exploratorily analyse the possible differences in perceived stigma on drug use between a sample of students and health services workers from Italy and Belgium. The Perceived Stigma of Addiction Scale (PSAS) (Luoma, Hair, Kohlenberg, Hayes, and Fletcher, 2010) was used. A total of 277 participants took part in this study. Outcomes showed that the perceived stigma among Italians was signifi- cantly higher (M = 23.68) than that reported by Belgians (M = 20.26). Authors argued that many factors (e.g., social, cultural, etc.) may explain the differences obtained. On the other hand, the existence of a stigma circuit (Scioli and Paniccia), which would share some similarities with the anxiety circuit, seems to trap the person in a vicious cycle of events that would make the relapse from addiction harder. The limitations and scope of the obtained results in the frame of this ex- ploratory study is discussed.Un estudio sobre la percepción del estigma asociado al consumo de drogas en una muestra de italianos y no italianosRESUMEN: El objetivo del presente estudio ha sido analizar de manera exploratoria las posibles diferencias en el estigma percibido asociado al consumo de drogas entre una muestra de estudiantes y trabajadores de los servicios de salud procedentes de Italia y Bélgica. Para este propósito, se utilizó el Perceived Stigma of Addiction Scale (PSAS) (Luoma, Hair, Kohlenberg, Hayes, y Fletcher, 2010). Un total de 277 participantes tomaron parte en este estudio. Los resultados mostraron que el estigma percibido entre los italianos fue significativamente mayor (M = 23.68) que el informado por la muestra de Bélgica (M = 20.26). Los autores argumentan que varios factores (e.g., sociales, culturales, etc.) explicarían las diferencias obtenidas. Por otro lado, la existencia de un circuito del estigma (Scioli y Paniccia), el cual compartiría ciertas similitudes con el circuito de la ansiedad, parece atrapar a la persona en un círculo vicioso de eventos que haría más difícil la recuperación de la adicción. Se discuten las limitaciones y el alcance de los resultados obtenidos en el marco del presente estudio exploratorio.
Gestion des incidents en classe, pratiques professionnelles des enseignants débutants et analyse de la plateforme nationale de ressources numériques Néopass@ction
Authors: Carra Cécile , Boxberger Clémence , Robbes Bruno , Pesce3 Sébastien
Published: July 2017

Résumé: Les incidents perturbent le quotidien scolaire (Barrère, 2002). Ils constituent autant d’épreuves pour les enseignants débutants. L’analyse des incidents, réalisée selon une sociologie des acteurs, donne à voir la classe comme un lieu conflictuel engageant les jeunes enseignants dans des rapports de force inter-individuels par le déploiement de « stratégies de survie » (Woods, 1977). Le sentiment d’impuissance exprimé par les jeunes enseignants face aux situations difficiles montre l’importance de la constitution de ressources de formation. Nous analyserons celles qui ont été construites dans le cadre de Néopass@ction (dirigé par L. Ria), l’intérêt de ces ressources numériques, mais aussi leurs limites.School incidents management and beginning teachers’ professional practices: an analysis of Néopass@ction, a French web-based training supportAbstract: Incidents disturb schools’ everyday functioning (Barrère, 2002) and are experienced as ordeals by beginning teachers. When these incidents are analysed from a sociology of actors standpoint, the classroom appear as a polemical space; teachers engage in interpersonal power struggles by developing survival strategies (Woods, 1977). The sense of helplessness expressed by beginning teachers who are coping with critical situations show how important it is to develop training resources. Our aim is to analyse this kind of resources, namely the ones produced in the frame of the Néopass@ction project implemented in France under Luc Ria’s leadership. We will insist on the relevance, but also on the limits, of such resources.
Desarrollo profesional docente en Finlandia: Hacia un enfoque más holístico
Authors: NIEMI Hannele
Published: July 2017

RESUMEN: El presente artículo presenta una reflexión sobre el desarrollo profesional docente (DPD) entendido como un continuo que comienza durante la formación inicial de los profesores, continúa durante sus primeros años de inducción a la profesión y abarca el desarrollo a lo largo de toda su carrera docente. Los docentes finlandeses trabajan en contextos que proporcionan una alta autonomía y agencia profesional en su trabajo. La formación docente inicial les prepara para cumplir dichas funciones con responsabilidad. Hace años, los cursos de formación continua tenían lugar durante días específicos a través de cursos de corta duración. En el enfoque actual, los profesores son considerados como promotores de la comunidad educativa. Durante su formación docente inicial, reciben formación basada en la investigación que les permite diseñar tanto proyectos escolares como su propio desarrollo profesional. El artículo presenta cuatro casos en los que se han implementado prácticas innovadoras de desarrollo profesional. Los casos constituyen ejemplos de cómo (1) apoyar a la comunidad escolar para superar sus limitaciones en cuanto a la cooperación entre profesionales, (2) diseñar una comunidad educativa innovadora a partir de un enfoque de investigación con numerosos colaboradores, (3) conectar la formación inicial y continua del profesorado, con base en la investigación sobre enseñanza de las ciencias, tecnología y matemáticas (STEM), y (4) promover la inducción a la profesión en profesores noveles.

Published: July 2017

Resumen: El presente artículo pone de relieve la idea de que la intervención con personas con TEA debe basarse siempre en un planteamiento integral y de futuro. Para ello deben consolidarse redes de servicios que cubran todas las necesidades, derechos, ámbitos y etapas vitales. El objetivo es potenciar el mantenimiento y el desarrollo continuo tanto de las habilidades básicas de la vida diaria como de todas aquellas que faciliten su acceso a los mismos ámbitos que el conjunto de la población, siguiendo el modelo de calidad de vida para asegurar el Proyecto de Vida de estas personas frente a concepciones asistenciales dirigidas solo a evitar el deterioro. Con dicho objetivo a la vista se exponen los principios en los que debe basarse esta intervención, recogiendo además los principales programas de intervención dirigidos a la formación, ocupación y trabajo en la etapa adulta. Autism spectrum disorder: Educational intervention and lifelong learning Abstract: In this paper, we highlight the idea that the intervention on people with ASD should always be based on a comprehensive and forward-looking approach, consolidating networks of services that cover all the vital needs, rights, areas and the life stages, with the aim to enhance the maintenance and the continued development of both basic skills of daily living and all those skills that help them to access to the same areas as the general population, following the model of quality of life to ensure their Life Project against welfare conceptions addressed to prevent deterioration only. We present the principles on which this intervention must be based, and gather the main intervention programs aimed at training, employment and working in adulthood.
Búsqueda de sensaciones e impulsividad como predictores de la agresión en adolescentes
Authors: Perez Fuentes Mª Carmen , Molero María del Mar , Simón Mª Mar
Published: July 2017

RESUMEN: La adolescencia es una etapa, en la que la impulsividad y la búsqueda de sensaciones se presentan como dos factores que confluyen con un amplio abanico de cambios, inherentes al desarrollo adolescente. La impulsividad y la búsqueda de sensaciones han sido frecuentemente vinculadas a comportamientos de riesgo en adolescentes, y especialmente afines a la agresividad. Con el presente trabajo se pretende analizar el valor predictivo de variables relacionadas con la búsqueda de sensaciones y la impulsividad, en relación a la adopción de diferentes formas de agresión (agresión física, agresión verbal, ira y hostilidad), en adolescentes. Para ello, se seleccionó una muestra de 822 alumnos de secundaria, y se aplicaron la Escala de Búsqueda de Sensaciones, la Escala de Impulsividad Estado (EIE) y el Cuestionario de Agresión (AQ). Los resultados obtenidos, evidencian la existencia de correlaciones positivas entre los factores de búsqueda de sensaciones e impulsividad, con respecto a las modalidades de agresión analizadas. Por otro lado, los análisis de regresión múltiple evidencian el valor predictivo de los factores de búsqueda de sensaciones e impulsividad, para las diferentes manifestaciones de la conducta agresiva. Más concretamente, destaca la presencia de los componentes de la impulsividad en los modelos explicativos de la agresión física y verbal, y el factor Atencional como el mejor predictor de la ira y la hostilidad.Palabras clave: Impulsividad, búsqueda de sensaciones, agresión, predictores, adolescentes. Sensation seeking and impulsivity as predictors of aggression in adolescentsABSTRACT: Adolescence is a stage in which impulsivity and sensation seeking are presented as two factors that come together with a wide range of changes inherent to adolescent development. Impulsivity and sensation seeking have often been linked to risky behavior in adolescents, especially related to aggressiveness. With this paper is to analyze the predictive value of variables related to sensation seeking and impulsiveness, in relation to the adoption of different forms of aggression (physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger and hostility) in adolescents. To do this, a sample of 822 high school students were selected, and the Sensation Seeking Scale, the State Impulsivity Scale (EIE) and Aggression Questionnaire (AQ), were applied. The results obtained show the existence of positive correlations between factors of sensation seeking and impulsivity, regarding the modalities of aggression analyzed. On the other hand, multiple regression analysis shows the predictive value of factors sensation seeking and impulsiveness, for the different manifestations of aggressive behavior. More specifically, the presence of components of impulsivity in the explanatory models of physical and verbal aggression, and attentional factor, as the best predictor of anger and hostility.Keywords: Impulsiveness; sensation seeking; aggression; predictors; adolescents.

Vampire and Empire: Dracula and the Imperial Gaze
Authors: Burns Stu
Published: July 2017

Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel Dracula was enmeshed in the discourse of British Imperialism, both in its composition and its reception. Stoker drew on Imperial-era studies to lend his narrative verisimilitude, including material on history, folklore, and geography from all over the world. As the range of Orientalist studies grew going into the twentieth century, Dracula effectively became part of imperial discourse, both in its own portrayal of the exotic,  dangerous East and for its association with the vampire motif that recurred in colonialist texts. This paper will examine the context of Dracula and vampiric tropes in imperialist rhetoric, focusing on the literature and ethnography of regions specifically cited in the novel. These include Britain’s tropical colonies in Malaysia and India, as well as the Empire’s sphere of influence in China. Special attention will be paid to the power relations inherent in the “imperial gaze,” as well as European fears of reverse colonialism and, more acutely, the problems of mimetic desire and “going native.”
Liminal Criminal: Abject, Absence and Environment in Junky and The Outsider
Authors: Hoey Molly
Published: July 2017

Liminality represents a transient and in-between space in which the subject, midritual, is rendered absent and abject. This space is generated and inhabited by both the victims and perpetrators of social transgressions; a space in which each party is caught in a state of abjection until the fulfilment of punishment. Located within this sphere the reader finds the worlds of William Burroughs’ Junky (2002 [1953]) and Albert Camus’ The Outsider (2013 [1967]). Junky outlines the daily journeys of its narrator, Bill, through the lens of his opiate addiction as he travels from the chill of New York to the sub-tropics of New Orleans and the heat of Mexico; constantly haunted by the ‘junk vibe’ until the lure of new highs takes him to the tropics of Columbia and beyond the reader’s reach. The Outsider follows the narrator, Meursault, as he travels under the burden of the Algerian sun from the day of his mother’s death through to his conviction of murder for shooting a man after a confrontation on a beach. The titles of both texts denote the protagonists as abject and liminal. The liminal is present within Junky and The Outsider in three distinct ways: the criminal element, the oppressive environment, and language.

Pengaruh Konsentrasi Kepemilikan, dan Keterbukaan, Diversifikasi, Terhadap Risiko Bank
Authors: Nugraha Prathama
Published: July 2017

Bank is a financial institution that must able to guarantee the funds entrusted by the community. This guarantee related to the ability of banks to maintain their risk levels. As revealed by the theories and previous studies, a bank level of risk taking might determined by the

concentration of the ownership, a party that determines the bank management. Additionally compliance in carrying out the principles of openness and the ability of banks to obtain other revenues outside the main business as intermediaries of funds from customers to the creditors also shown to determine the level of bank risk taking.

By using multiple regression analysis techniques and observation of data during a period of 5 years, this study found that the level of a bank's risk taking is influenced by the disclosure of information and income diversification. The higher the index the information disclosure and

diversification the lower the risk. Ownership concentration has shown the right coefficient direction corresponding to the risk but it is not statistically significant.

Since children' s literature and reading with and to children surfaces in almost every article or commentary about how to increase literacy with youngsters, I decided to interview Wendy about the topic.
