Abstract.The main models of emotional intelligence (IE) were design primarily for adults, not for children. For this reason, many aspects of the EI rarely studied in preschoolers. Thus, this study aims to analyze the emotional understanding (CE), a complex construct, considered a key component of IE in young children and that includes various skills, including the differentiating one’s emotions and understand the emotions of others based in facial expressions and characteristics of situations of emotional context. Our goal is to analyze the relationship between emotional understanding and peer relations. The sample consisted of 210 children between 3 and 6 years of age, which were administered the Test of Emotion Comprehension (TEC, Pons et al., 2004, translated to Portuguese by Roazzi et al. 2008) and a sociometric test. The results confirm that, increasing the age increases the level of CE and emotional understanding may influence peer relationships.Keywords: emotional intelligence, emotional understanding, peer relationship, sociometric analysis.Resumen.Los principales modelos de inteligencia emocional (IE) fueron diseñados, principalmente, para el pensamiento adulto, no para niños. Por esta razón, muchos aspectos de la IE raramente han sido estudiando en niños en edad preescolar. Así, este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar la comprensión emocional, un constructo complejo, considerado componente clave de la IE en niños pequeños y que engloba varias habilidades, entre ellas, la de diferenciar las emociones propias y la de comprender las emociones de los otros basándose en las expresiones faciales y en las características de las situaciones de contexto emocional. Nuestro objetivo es analizar la relación entre la comprensión emocional y las relaciones entre pares. La muestra estuvo constituida por 210 niños y niñas entre los 3 y 6 años de edad, a los cuales se les administro el Test of Emotion Comprehension (TEC, de Pons et al., 2004, traducida para el portugués por Roazzi et al., 2008) y una prueba sociométrica. Los resultados confirman que, con el aumento de la edad aumenta el nivel de CE y que la comprensión emocional puede influenciar las relaciones con los pares.Palabras clave: inteligencia emocional, comprensión emocional, relación entre pares, análisis sociométrico.

Abstract.Currently the talent is the key word for any type of organization or institution. Supported by a change of mentality, which coincides with the entry of the century, the investigations begin to question the IQ (intelligence quotient) as the predominant factor in achieving social and professional success , going to defend the EQ (emotional quotient). Thus, we advocate processing in children and young people to equip them with differentiating competencies to develop talents. Outdoor Training, which places individuals in natural settings outside their comfort zone, has proved to be a methodology that enables better and faster learning than the traditional method. In this workshop we intend to demonstrate how socio-emotional skills can be worked in children and young people using this methodology. It will be developed four outdoor activities that allow participants to go through the experience and be able to assess the relevance and impact of this methodology. The workshop will be conduct with a maximum of 30 people, outdoor environment (off living classroom, on the grounds of the university). A team of researchers in the area of outdoor training and emotional intelligence will energized the workshop on the ground. The workshop will be evaluated through interviews and questionnaires of assessment.Keywords: Talent, Emotional Intelligence, Outdoor TrainingResumen.Actualmente el talento es palabra clave para cualquier tipo de organización e institución. Apoyados por un cambio de mentalidad, que coincide con la entrada del siglo XXI, las investigaciones comienzan a poner en duda el CI (coeficiente de inteligencia) como factor predominante para alcanzar éxito social y profesional, pasando a defender el CE (coeficiente emocional). Así, defendemos su perfeccionamiento en niños y jóvenes para dotarlos de competencias diferenciadoras y así poder desarrollar talentos.  El Outdoor Training, que coloca a los individuos en contextos naturales fuera de su zona de conforto, se ha mostrado como una metodología que permite mayor eficacia y rapidez de aprendizaje que el modelo tradicional. En este taller pretendemos demostrar cómo se pueden trabajar competencias socioemocionales en niños y jóvenes utilizando esta metodología. Iremos a desarrollar cuatro actividades de outdoor que permitan a los participantes pasar por la experiencia y así poder evaluar la pertinencia y el impacto de esta metodología. El taller será realizado con un máximo de 24 personas, en ambiente outdoor (fuera de sala de aula, en los jardines de la universidad). Un equipo de investigadores del área de outdoor training e inteligencia emocional irá a dinamizar el taller en el terreno.

PRENATAL MATERNAL PSYCHIC DEVELOPMENT AND FETAL BEHAVIOR: AN INTERACTING REALITY

Published: December 2016

Abstract.Psychological development during pregnancy and along transition to parenthood stood under scientific attention during the second half of the twentieth century. Research yielded data suggesting that human adaptation to the reproductive steps of the life cycle is very important in our quest for quality of life. Namely, studies of maternal prenatal emotions revealed the existence of a relationship between, on one side, pregnant women psychological functioning and, on another side, obstetric health, labor and delivery vicissitudes, newborn’s health and behavior, etc. Recently studies about prenatal stress showed how important intrauterine experiences can be for babies’ development. Interventions dedicated to prevent negative consequences induced by maternal stress should be organized as early as possible in human life. In this sense, it is argued that positive aspects reinforcement, both in the mother and in the baby as well as in family functioning, should be seen as the major focus in relational strategies assumed by professionals operating in this field.Key words: Psychological development during pregnancy; Maternal prenatal emotions; Obstetric health; Newborn’s health and behavior; Prenatal stress.

Abstract.PROFILE OF THE OLDER PEOPLE THAT USE ASSISTED LIVING RESIDENCESThe nursing homes (residences) for older people that are dependent (commonly referred to assisted or assisted living) are conceived nowadays, as open gerontology centers for personal development, and where an interprofessional socio-health care is provided. They represent facilities providing specialized and comprehensive care to people who have high levels of dependency. Therefore, they are aimed at users who respond to an specific profile: people with disabilities as result of degenerative or neurological diseases, with serious difficulties in ambulation, with a high degree of senility and/or in a situation of dependency due to a mental disorder. In this work, we study the profile of users of state residences with assisted living in Galicia through the analysis of their health, functional, cognitive and social status, and we evaluate the degree of coincidence with the type profile to whom these centers aim to target. The results obtained indicate that, although most people in assisted living residences show functional dependence and cognitive problems, a major part of them, could get adequate care, according to their characteristics and those of their social network, in community-based services, such as home help service or day centers.Key words: Older people, Social services, Assisted living residences.Resumen.Las residencias para personas mayores en situación de dependencia (habitualmente denominadas de asistidos) son concebidas, en la actualidad, como centros gerontológicos abiertos, de desarrollo personal, y donde se presta una atención interprofesional de tipo sociosanitario. Constituyen equipamientos destinados a la atención especializada integral de personas que presentan elevados niveles de dependencia. Por tanto, están dirigidas a usuarios que encajen en un perfil específico: personas incapacitadas a consecuencia de enfermedades degenerativas o neurológicas, con graves dificultades para la deambulación, con alto grado de senilidad y/o en situación de dependencia a causa de un trastorno psíquico. En este trabajo se estudia el perfil de los usuarios de residencias públicas para personas asistidas en Galicia, a través del análisis de su situación de salud, funcional, cognitiva y social, y se valora el grado de coincidencia con el perfil tipo al que van dirigidos estos centros. Los resultados obtenidos permiten concluir que, si bien, la mayor parte de las personas que viven en residencias de asistidos presentan dependencia funcional y problemas cognitivos, una parte importante de ellas, podría ser adecuadamente atendida, de acuerdo a sus características y a las de su red social, en servicios de tipo comunitario, como el servicio de ayuda a domicilio o los centros de día.Palabras clave: Personas mayores, Servicios Sociales, Residencias.

Abstract.TEACHING STYLES AND SELF-EFFICAY IN PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERSThis research aims to analyze the relationship between self-perceived competence dimensions of Primary School teachers in Spain and their level of self-efficacy. A sample of N = 40 teachers in Castilla y León area of this educational level, answered two Likert self-rating scales: the ECAD-EP (Valdivieso, Carbonero & Martín-Antón, 2013) for the measurement of teaching style with three dimensions (a. Social and Emotional , b. Communicative and Relationship and c. Instructional) and the test Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale –TSES-(Tschannen -Moran & Woolfolk , 2001) for the self-efficacy assessment. The process of data analysis focused on descriptive statistical calculations, bivariate correlation and linear regression. The results showed that the socialemotional factor has a significant linear correlation (r=.623) with self-efficacy dimension and it explains a 48.90% variance. Thus we can say that in the teacher training process it is necessary to include emotional skills in order to improve their effectiveness in the teaching.Key words: Teaching Styles, Self-Efficacy of Teaching, self-perceived teaching competence, instructional variables, psychological-instructional profile, Primary Education.Resumen.Esta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar la relación existente entre las dimensiones competenciales autopercibidas del profesorado de Educación Primaria en España y su nivel de autoeficacia.

Se hicieron cálculos estadísticos descriptivos, de correlación bivariada (Rho de Spearman) y de regresión lineal. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el factor socioemocional posee una correlación lineal significativa (r=.623) con la autoeficacia y explica el 48.90% de su varianza.

INTERGROUP RELATIONS AND SOCIAL INFLUENCE: SELF-PRESENTATIONAL PERSPECTIVES?
Authors: Dos Santos Mendes Monico Lisete
Published: December 2016

Abstract.Starting from the assumption that self-presentation is a ubiquitous feature of social behavior, this paper analyzes intergroup relations and processes of social influence in a perspective of self-presentation. Starting from the classical definition of self-presentation of Jones and Pittman (1982), we expose the direct and indirect strategies of self-presentation. Then, we consider the implications of self-presentation that, in addition to being used in order to transmit a positive image of the subject, enable the construction and maintenance of a positive social identity, satisfying self-esteem needs. We argue that the reasons for self-presentation mediate or determine how individuals respond to external influences, and that the risk of breaking ingroup norms and public expectations is self-presentational. We analyze the conflict between conforming to a source of influence and remain independent in a self-presentational perspective. Given this perspective, much of human behavior can be understood as the result of attempts to, rather than seeking to, creates a desired image in others.Keywords: Self-presentation; Intergroup relations; Social influence.Resumo.Partindo da assunção que a autoapresentação é uma característica omnipresente do comportamento social, o presente artigo analisa as relações intergrupais e os processos de influência social numa perspetiva de autoapresentação. Partindo da definição clássica de autoapresentação de Jones e Pittman (1982), expomos as estratégias diretas e indiretas de autoapresentação. Seguidamente atendemos às implicações das autoapresentações que, para além de serem utilizadas com o fim de transmitir uma imagem positiva do indivíduo, possibilitam a construção e manutenção de uma identidade social positiva, satisfazendo necessidades de autoestima. Defendemos que os motivos de autoapresentação determinam ou medeiam o modo como os indivíduos respondem a influências externas e que o risco de transgredir normas endogrupais ou expectativas públicas é autoapresentacional. Analisámos o conflito entre conformar-se a uma fonte de influência e manter-se independente numa perspetiva autoapresentacional. Atendendo a esta perspetiva, muito do comportamento humano pode ser compreendido como o resultado de tentativas de, mais do que procurar, criar uma imagem desejada nos outros.Palavras-chave: Autoapresentação; Relações intergrupais; Influência social.

Abstract.The research about positive psychology establishes a link between high levels of optimism and hope with the physiological state and psychological well-being of individuals. The present article analyses the Psychological Capital and its pertinence in the current contextualization of organizations. The following are considered POB (Positive Organizational Behaviour) states: hope, resilience, trust and optimism. The sample is composed by 301 employees from Portuguese organizations, aged between 18 and 67 and with diverse academic qualifications and organizational functions. We applied the PsyCap Questionnaire (Luthans, Youssef, & Avolio, 2007), comprising four factors: Hope, Resilience, Optimism, and Self efficiency. The results indicate that the highest score corresponds to Self-efficiency, followed by Hope, Resilience and, lastly, Optimism. The psychological capital is analyzed according to personal data (gender, age, and academic qualifications), information concerning professional status (professional situation, time of work in the organization, managerial duties performance, and liquid monthly salary), and the organizational variables (size of the organization). The results are discussed taking into account the contributions of positive psychological capital, and the impact of current crisis scenario in lower levels of optimism.Keywords: Psychological Capital; Organizations; EmployeesResumo.A investigação sobre psicologia positiva estabelece uma relação entre níveis elevados de otimismo e de esperança com estados fisiológicos e psicológicos de bem-estar dos indivíduos.

Civil Society Organizations’ Participation in the EU and Its Challenges for Democratic Representation
Authors: Zeegers Nicolle
Published: December 2016

Online consultations and the European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) are tools that have been put into place by the European Union (EU) in order to increase the participation of citizens and Civil Society Organizations (CSO) in its politics and policy making. The current CSO representation at the system level of the EU is claimed to be biased in favor of the interests of economic producers and CSOs coming from old member states. The central question of this article is whether these tools help make participation more representative of the diversity of societal groups within the EU. The concept of ‘actor representativeness’ as well as ‘discourse representativeness’ will be applied in order to answer this question.
The mySpot beamline at BESSY II
Authors: Zizak Ivo
Published: December 2016

mySpot beamline is used to provide stable beam especially tuned for the mySpot experiment. Depending on the experiment requirements, different optical devices are used. The schematic view shows two different configurations, one tuned for low divergence, and one for narrow energy band width, as required for the scattering and spectroscopy experiments respectively. Since the goal of the experiment is to provide several methods at the same time, beamline properties can be tuned to provide the optimal beam for a given combination of experiments. Total intensity, divergence, energy resolution, high harmonics suppression, and stability in scans can be tuned to match the requirements (Erko & Zizak, 2009).

Outcomes and prognosis in cystic fibrosis (CF) are generally related to severity of respiratory system injury. That is why new therapeutic methods are in focus. Mucolytic agents play an important role along with antibacterial therapy and kinesiotherapy. Hypertonic saline solution (HSS) is one of the most important mucolytic agents though it should be referred to as sputum rehydratant. A systematic review of safety and clinical efficacy of inhaled HSS (alone or in combination with hyaluronic acid) has been done in this article. A long-term treatment with inhaled HSS in combination with dornase alfa as a basic therapy of CF in various age groups of patients has been also discussed.

Current guidelines consider timely diagnosis, treatment and prevention of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) as an important goal of the management of patients with COPD. Frequent AECOPD accelerate lung function declining and decrease quality of life. AECOPD are essentially associated with worsening of the mucociliary clearance and are caused unfrequently by respiratory infection. A case report is included in the article. A male with AECOPD was treated with inhalation therapy without systemic antibiotics. Thiamphenicol, glycinate acetylcysteinate (Fluimucil antibiotic IT) was used along with the standard therapy of AECOPD due to its antibacterial, antioxidant and mucolytic activity. Dyspnea, sputum expectoration, physical tolerance of the patient and rhonchi on auscultation improved in 3 days of treatment. The authors have concluded that administration of this drug allowed reduction drug load and decrease a risk of adverse events associated with systemic drug exposure.

Background: Anti-cancer chemotherapy is associated with a myriad nail changes ranging from cosmetic disfigurement to severe changes which may require an alteration in the cancer chemotherapeutic regimens. The objective of the study was to analyse the nail changes in patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy.

Methods: Screening was done for all in-patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy and out-patients referred to Dermatology from Oncology.  All nail changes were documented according to a proforma and an attempt was made to establish a relation, if any, with a chemotherapeutic agent group.

Results: A total of consecutive 150 patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy were screened, out of which nail changes were observed in 50 patients. The age group of patients ranged from 12yrs to 73yrs. The Male: Female ratio was 2.7:1. Following platinum based agents, the nail changes were seen in 54% of patients. There was a significant association of nail changes following chemotherapy with a p value of 0.00001%. Pigmentary changes were the most common nail plate changes. Longitudinal pigmentary bands were the most common pigmentary nail plate changes seen in 67.7% of patients following chemotherapy with platinum based agents, and 16.1% of patients following CHOP regimen. Diffuse pigmentation of nail plate was most common nail plate change (16.1%) following chemotherapy with taxanes. Muehrcke’s lines were the most common nail bed changes seen in 57.1% of patients following treatment with platins. Half and half nails and onycholysis were seen in 42.85% of patients following CHOP chemotherapy. Pigmentation of the nail folds were the most common changes seen in 40% of patients following  platinum based agents and CHOP chemotherapy.

Conclusions: A variety of nail changes can be associated with cancer chemotherapy. A knowledge about the various changes ranging from those of cosmetic concern to serious changes in patients who are undergoing chemotherapy is vital for the successful management of the patient.

De todos los embarazos 3% son embarazos múltiples y los más frecuentes son los dicigóticos del sexo femenino. Sin embargo, un pequeño grupo de ellos son de origen monocigótico con productos unidos en alguna región anatómica. Estos casos atraen la atención de los médicos por su rareza y por las dificultades y dilemas éticos a los que se enfrentan para su tratamiento. Presentamos el caso de unos siameses onfalópagos del sexo masculino a los que se logró separar quirúrgicamente a las siete semanas de vida; uno de ellos sólo sobrevivió seis meses.
Appendectomized Patient and Infections after Surgery

Published: December 2016

Appendicitis is one of the common surgeries all over the world, and its diagnosis is difficult and based on clinical examinations or its symptoms. Moreover, after the surgery is accomplished, it is probable that the patient is faced with certain problems and complications. In this regard, the present study was carried out in order to review the infections caused after appendicitis surgery. The databases like PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct and relevant articles were collected, in which keywords like appendicitis surgery, perforation, laparoscopy, and infection had been used. A total number of 6,000 articles were retrieved, out of which, 74 relevant articles were examined. The results of the present study indicated that perforated appendix can be the biggest cause of infection and abscess after intra-abdominal surgery. An increase in the level of C-reactive protein and leukocytes is accompanied with the risk of postoperative complications including infection and abscess. Numerous studies have reported that formation of infection and abscess after laparoscopic appendectomy is a little more than open appendectomy. It is not necessary to consume antibiotics after a non-perforated appendectomy. It is sufficient to consume antibiotics for 3 to 5 days after a perforated appendectomy to prevent infection and abscess. With the above results now it is evident that the appendicitis and its complications are still a common problem among people all over the world. There is still much to discuss among the surgeons with regards to appendicitis and its complications.

При формировании современной системы подготовки кадров, отвечающей потребностям трансформируемой экономики, актуальными становятся принципы индивидуализации и альтернативности в обучении. Для устранения возникающих при этом трудностей необходимо наличие альтернатив в предлагаемых инновациях и мотивационной системы, отвечающей изменившимся потребностям студентов и преподавателей. Применение компьютерных технологий в учебном процессе способствует интенсификации всех видов учебной работы и проведению ее на высоком уровне, однако этого добиться можно только при условии напряженной методической работы профессорско-преподавательского состава. Компьютерная технология обучения представляет собой основу информатизации образования, выступающей главным условием информатизации общества. Анализ новых форм работы со студентами показывает, что содержание образования, изменяясь, оказывает влияние на формы обучения. Это в значительной степени способствует интенсификации обучения и повышению качества подготовки кадров.
