Estrategias para aumentar la participación del alumnado en nuestras clases de matemáticas
Authors: Molina Legaz Roque , Molina Cánovas Francisco
Published: January 2023

En esta ponencia(1) los autores reflexionan sobre la poca participación que suelen tener los alumnos en las clases de matemáticas en la universidad. Tras un preámbulo donde se plantean las ventajas de la participación activa(2) del alumnado y el porqué de la casi nula participación estudiantil (con referencias a experiencias donde los propios alumnos universitarios se expresan sobre los motivos de su no participación en el aula), se exponen determinadas estrategias que se pueden plantear en el aula y que conllevan un aumento de la participación de los alumnos en las clases universitarias de matemáticas. Con este aumento, seguro que se contribuirá a una mejor comprensión, por parte de los estudiantes, de los conocimientos que en ellas se imparten, aumentando la tasa de éxito en las asignaturas universitarias relacionadas con esta disciplina.
Influencia de la encuesta de los estudiantes sobre la calidad docente en la universidad
Authors: Canela Jordi , Galindo Carlos , Gregori Pablo , Martínez Vicente
Published: January 2023

En el ámbito universitario español existen intereses particulares contrapuestos. Por un lado, uno de los principales objetivos de los estudiantes, si no el más importante, es aprobar las asignaturas. Estos consideran en muchos casos que las exigencias del profesorado son excesivas: evaluación continua, exposiciones, resolución de problemas, etc. Por otro lado, el profesorado tiene que cumplir con su labor docente, que incluye una evaluación adecuada de las competencias de los estudiantes. En los últimos tiempos, la encuesta al profesorado por parte de los estudiantes tiene un peso cada vez más importante en la valoración de los méritos del profesorado.

En este trabajo analizamos, considerando las opiniones tanto del alumnado cono del profesorado, el actual uso de las encuestas: cómo afectan a la docencia impartida y a la promoción del profesorado. Finalmente proponemos cambios para mejorar surealización y su uso posterior.

Published: January 2023

Este trabajo analiza los resultados de la materia de Matemáticas II en ADE y en ADE + Derecho. Posiblemente debido a su menor número de entrada, el alumnado de ADE + Derecho muestra mejores resultados en la materia de Matemáticas II que las personas que cursan los estudios de ADE de forma única. En este trabajo hemos analizado la diferencia de resultados entre los dos grupos es significativa y cuáles son las principales variables que explicarían dicha diferencia. Para nuestro análisis hemos utilizado los datos de los cursos 2010-2011 a 2021-2022, un total de 12 años para analizar si este supuesto mejor desempeño del alumnado de ADE + Derecho en la materia de Matemáticas II es cierto. Hemos incorporado un análisis tridimensional alconsiderar por un lado los resultados obtenidos en las dos titulaciones y teniendo en cuenta, el posible efecto vinculado al año de acceso. Nuestroobjetivo es analizar si las diferencias entre ambas titulaciones son significativas.

Authors: İzci Emir Kaan , Sertdemir Mahmut
Published: January 2023

Objectives: This research investigated the impact of having a qualified physician on improving disease awareness and effective treatment for cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Previous studies have observed that patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy are less satisfied
with their treatment and medical facilities. This study hence aimed to investigate the role of a qualified physician and the moderating influence of health behavior between disease awareness and effective treatment for cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Methods: The primary data was collected
from 144 cervical spondylotic myelopathy patients admitted in Meram Medical Faculty Hospital. A questionnaire on 5-point Likert scale was developed, whose items were checked for validity and reliability. The study adopted a cross- sectional approach, by conducting a normality test, correlation
measurement of all variables like disease awareness, qualified physician and health behavior, and a regression analysis to explore the impact of independent variables on the dependent variable, and to test the hypotheses of the study. Results: The results of this research revealed that
patients of cervical spondylotic myelopathy would get effective treatment when their health behavior is positive and when they have an awareness of the critical health situation. Conclusion: This research contributed a framework significantly to the research gap. It demonstrated the
extraordinary practical and theoretical implications related to cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Future directions are also recommended by highlighting the limitations of this research, in order to continue to contribute to the effective treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy patients.

Authors: Liu Bin-Bin , Niu Zi-Ru , Jia Xiao-Jiao , Liu Xiao-Li , Lu Qiang
Published: January 2023

Objective: In this study, we investigated the correlation between insulin resistance (IR) and cardiopulmonary function during physical exams for male patients. Methods: We selected 124 healthy male participants in the physical examination center of our hospital. They were
divided into 3 groups according to the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance values. The oxygen uptake, peak oxygen uptake (VO2/kg), heart rate, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured by a cardiopulmonary exercise function tester.
We analyzed the correlation between the index of IR and cardiopulmonary function. Results: There were statistically significant differences in body mass index, waist circumference, fasting insulin level, anaerobic threshold SBP, maximum VO2/kg and maximum SBP among the 3 groups (p<.05).
However, no significant difference was found in SBP, DBP, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and fasting blood glucose levels (p>.05). The anaerobic threshold SBP, maximum VO2/kg and maximum SBP were all negatively correlated with the IR index. Conclusion: Our
results indicate that IR is associated with cardiopulmonary function and that there are different correlations between the various cardiopulmonary function indexes and IR.

of patients did not meet the recommended amount of guidelines. Through the analysis of the influencing factors of physical activity in patients with coronary heart disease stent implantation, the status of physical activity was affected by the NYHA classification, LVEF, exercise self-efficacy,
fatigue, and social support. Conclusions: The level of physical activity of patients after percutaneous coronary intervention needs to be improved further. In clinical practice, nursing practitioners should strengthen the health education of patients' exercise rehabilitation to improve
the level of physical activity and reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular events.
Formación del profesorado para la participación familiar. ¿Fomentan la capacitación de los padres y madres?
Authors: Galián Begoña
Published: January 2023

The participation of families in educational centers is essential to achieve democratic institutions. It is the teacher's job to foster this relationship, but this requires adequate training. Currently, the training offered is scarce for both teachers and families. The aim of this study is to find out how teachers in Torre Pacheco promote the training of families and their own in relation to family participation. To this end, a validated questionnaire was applied to achieve a representative sample and the data were analyzed with SPSS using descriptive and non-parametric statistics. The results show that teachers are mainly responsible for ensuring that families are informed of the training offer. With respect to their own, although they are informed, they do not participate frequently, although they consider that they need it. In spite of the fact that family participation is similar in both types of centers, those with concerted ownership affirm that they motivate more the training of families and their own. It is necessary to rethink the training offered to teachers to improve the relationship with families and how they encourage families to collaborate efficiently for common objectives.

La participación de las familias en los centros educativos es imprescindible para conseguir instituciones democráticas. Es labor del docente propiciar esta relación, pero ello exige estar adecuadamente capacitado. Actualmente, la formación ofertada es escasa tanto para docentes como familias. El objetivo del estudio es conocer cómo el profesorado de Torre Pacheco fomenta la formación de las familias y la suya en relación con la participación familiar. Para ello se aplica un cuestionario validado logrando una muestra representativa y se analizan los datos con el SPSS mediante estadística descriptiva y no paramétrica. Los resultados muestran que los docentes principalmente se encargan de que las familias estén informadas de la oferta formativa. Con respecto a la propia, aunque están informados no participan con frecuencia, aunque consideran que la necesitan. A pesar de que la participación de las familias es similar en ambos tipos de centros, los de titularidad concertada afirman motivar más la formación a las familias y la suya propia. Se hace necesario replantear la formación que se ofrece a los docentes para mejorar la relación con las familias y cómo fomentan la de las familias para que logren colaborar de forma eficiente por los objetivos comunes.

Published: January 2023

The objective of this research is to know the perception of university students about a didactic methodology derived from Project Based Learning and mediated by technology. The area of application corresponds to the didactic field. Specifically, the development of linguistic competence and the encouragement of reading from the classroom. The research methodology we have used combines a descriptive approach with a survey design and analyzes the relationship between the observed variables through Pearson's test (r). We designed an experimental situation involving a teaching methodology based on projects and the use of technology, and we asked the students about their perception. The results indicate a high level of satisfaction with the teaching and learning experience. There is a direct relationship between students' affinity with reading and their perception of the method and the technological resource. The conclusions highlight that, in the research context, university students present a high satisfaction with respect to the implementation of active methodologies based on projects by using technology. We have found that the consideration of the students' interests has a direct impact on a positive evaluation of the didactic strategies.

An increasing number of educational institutions are betting on the development of innovative projects and their inclusion in pedagogical plans. In these projects, the ICT component has been established as a fundamental pillar. However, there are no relevant data that demonstrate the impact of these innovation proposals on academic performance, and by extension, on the possibility of improving the quality of education. The aim of this study is to verify the influence that the incorporation of innovation projects into the pedagogical plan of the center, and the cost per student, can have on the percentage of students who promote or repeat, in the Primary Education stage, according to data from the Spanish Ministry of Education.

It has been observed that, contrary to public opinion, undertaking an ICT-based educational project correlates with the generation of a higher rate of repeating students, and in turn, with a lower number of students who are promoted, and that the cost per student is not related to academic performance. Revealing data, which again may have a different cause to those that are usually attributed arbitrarily.

Son cada vez más las instituciones educativas que apuestan por el desarrollo de proyectos de innovación, y su inclusión en los planes pedagógicos. En estos proyectos, el componente TIC se ha establecido como un pilar fundamental. No obstante, no se cuenta con datos relevantes que demuestren el impacto de estas propuestas de innovación en el rendimiento académico, y por extensión, en la posibilidad de mejorar la calidad educativa.

Con este estudio se pretende verificar la influencia que puede tener la incorporación de proyectos de innovación al plan pedagógico del centro, y el gasto por alumno, en el porcentaje de alumnos que promocionan o repiten, en la etapa de Educación Primaria, según datos del Ministerio de Educación de España. Se ha podido observar que, en contra de lo que establece como cierto la opinión pública, emprender un proyecto educativo de base TIC correlaciona con la generación de un mayor índice de alumnos repetidores, y a su vez, con un menor número de alumnos que promocionan y que el gasto por alumno no tiene relación con el rendimiento académico. Datos reveladores, que nuevamente puede tener una causa diferente a las que se les suele atribuir arbitrariamente.

Authors: Rodríguez Moreno Javier , Molina Jaén María Dolores , Izquierdo Rus Tomás
Published: January 2023

The work by competences in the Early Childhood Education Stage requires its own curricular architecture, which gives coherence to the learning process. The present work derives from the Research Project (PIV-006/13) and aims to analyze the voice of 66 nursery teachers about competency work carried out by four of the main publishers in Spain and develop a coherent didactic transposition between competences, evaluation criteria and indicators. For this, in this research, a mixed method of research was used, to offer a broad framework for understanding the use of textbooks in Early Childhood Education. First, an organized Likert scale was designed that groups three areas of Early Childhood Education and with a total of 43 items. Next, the instrument was validated through expert judgment and a pilot test was carried out. Secondly, a discussion group was used to inquire about the fundamental topics of the investigation. The results reaffirm that teachers do not value editorials and their complementary materials as valid instruments for working skills and abilities.

El trabajo por competencias en la Etapa de Educación Infantil requiere de una arquitectura curricular propia, que dote de coherencia al proceso de aprendizaje. El presente trabajo deriva del Proyecto de Investigación (PIV-006/13) y tiene como objetivos analizar la voz de 66 docentes de Educación Infantil sobre el trabajo por competencias que realizan cuatro de las principales editoriales en España y desarrollar una transposición didáctica coherente entre competencias, criterios de evaluación e indicadores. Para ello, en esta investigación, se empleó un método mixto de investigación, para ofrecer un amplio marco de comprensión del uso de los libros de texto en Educación Infantil. Primeramente, se diseñó una escala tipo Likert organizada que agrupa tres áreas de Educación Infantil y con un total de 43 ítems. Seguidamente, se validó el instrumento por medio de juicio de expertos y se realizó una prueba piloto. En segundo lugar, se utilizó un grupo de discusión para indagar sobre los tópicos fundamentales de la investigación. Los resultados reafirman que el profesorado no valora las editoriales y sus materiales complementarios como instrumentos válidos para trabajar las competencias y las habilidades.

Authors: García-Martínez Inmaculada , Gavín-Chocano Óscar , Molero David , León Samuel P.
Published: January 2023

This study attempts to provide evidence of the relationship between emotional intelligence and resilience, with optimism vs. pessimism as mediating variables of life satisfaction. The sample included 403 university students. The average age was 20.86 (SD= 2.56). In relation to gender, 84.61% were female and 15.39% were male participants. Information was collected by means of four tools: Wong Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS-S), Resilience Scale (RS-14), Life Orientation Test Scale Revised (LOT-R) and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). Regarding the association between Emotional Intelligence and Resilience, a statistically significant relationship was observed. Besides, positive relationships were found between optimism and satisfaction with life; while a negative association with pessimism was noted. The results indicate that students with a high level of emotional intelligence and resilience have higher scores in optimism and life satisfaction. Moreover, the structural equation model showed that Emotional Intelligence and resilience are able to predict higher life satisfaction directly (β= .19, and β= .26, respectively), but they may also mediate through optimism. This mediation effect did not appear with the pessimism factor. Finally, the practical implications of this study underline the need to promote emotional intelligence and resilience education programmes to improve personal well-being.

Este estudio trata de aportar pruebas sobre la relación entre la inteligencia emocional y la resiliencia, con el optimismo frente al pesimismo como variable mediadora sobre la satisfacción vital. La muestra incluyó 403 estudiantes universitarios. La edad media es de 20.86 años (SD= 2.56). En relación con el género, el 84.61% eran mujeres y el 15.39% eran hombres. La información se recogió mediante cuatro instrumentos: Escala de Inteligencia Emocional de Wong Law (WLEIS-S), Escala de Resiliencia (RS-14), Escala de Test de Orientación Vital Revisada (LOT-R) y Escala de Satisfacción con la Vida (SWLS). En cuanto a la asociación entre la Inteligencia Emocional y la Resiliencia, se encontró una relación estadísticamente significativa. Asimismo, se encontraron relaciones positivas entre el optimismo y la satisfacción con la vida; y negativas con el pesimismo. Los resultados indican que los estudiantes con un alto nivel de inteligencia emocional y resiliencia tienen puntuaciones más altas en optimismo y satisfacción con la vida. Además, el modelo de ecuaciones estructurales mostró que la inteligencia emocional y la resiliencia son capaces de predecir una mayor satisfacción con la vida (β= .19, y β= .26, respectivamente), pero, además, también pueden mediar a través del optimismo. Este efecto de mediación no apareció con el factor pesimismo. Finalmente, las implicaciones prácticas de este estudio subrayan la necesidad de promover programas de educación en inteligencia emocional y resiliencia para mejorar el bienestar personal.

Published: January 2023

Using a quantitative methodology and an ex-post-facto design, the present study analyzes the differences in the perception of gender roles assumed by teenage boys and girls, investigating their acceptance of gendered beliefs according to their country of origin. To do so, the study utilizes the Scale of Student Attitudes towards Gender Equality (García-Pérez et al., 2010) in a sample of 1,826 adolescents of different nationalities (of Spanish, non-Spanish European, Maghrebi, and Latin American origin) enrolled in Secondary Education Schools in Castilla- La Mancha. Results reveal that boys show a greater acceptance of these beliefs than girls, with significant differences in the three dimensions examined (sociocultural, relational, and personal facets). This willingness to accept gender roles is particularly conspicuous in the group of Latin American and Maghrebi male adolescents, whereas no relevant differences have been detected between women, who rather hold more egalitarian beliefs regardless of cultural origin.

El presente estudio, de metodología cuantitativa y diseño ex-post-facto, tiene como objetivo analizar las diferencias en la percepción de los roles de género asumidos por chicos y chicas, así como conocer la aceptación de estas creencias en función de la procedencia u origen, utilizando la Escala de Actitudes del Alumnado hacia la Igualdad de Género (García-Pérez et al., 2010) en una muestra de 1,826 adolescentes de distintas nacionalidades (procedencia española, europea no española, magrebí, latinoamericana) escolarizados en Centros Educativos de Educación Secundaria de Castilla-La Mancha. Los chicos presentan mayor aceptación hacia estas creencias que las chicas con diferencias significativas en las tres dimensiones analizadas (plano sociocultural, relacional y personal). Se encontró una mayor aceptación de esos roles de género en el grupo de adolescentes latinoamericanos y magrebíes respecto al de europeos y españoles. No se dieron diferencias entre el grupo de las mujeres, encontrándose creencias más igualitarias independientemente de la procedencia cultural.

Published: January 2023

The effective use of digital competency enables a system of lifelong learning, inherent in the education of 21st century pupils. Therefore, the highest level of digital competency should be sought that is also ethical. The Spanish education system includes in its curriculum the competencies that are considered key at the European level for training autonomous citizens, recognizing the transversal nature of digital competency and its application in multiple fields. This study aims to evaluate the level of digital competency of primary school students in the city of Ávila (Spain). For this purpose, a non-experimental quantitative methodological approach has been taken, using descriptive statistical techniques. The sample consisted of 325 pupils in the sixth year of primary education, from public and private-subsidised schools in Ávila (Spain). A problem-solving test was used to collect the data. The results show that the level of digital competency of the pupils in our sample is higher than expected, that the gender variable does not have a significant influence in digital competency, and that private-subsidised schools have a lower level of digital competency than public schools. The conclusion is that effective educational policies are needed that do not underestimate students’ digital competency, that are able to promote media literacy and that enable students not only to be in front of a screen, but to do so effectively.

El uso eficaz de la competencia digital permite un sistema de aprendizaje permanente, inherente a la educación del alumnado del siglo XXI, debiéndose, por tanto, procurar el mayor nivel de dicha competencia, haciendo de ella un uso ético. El sistema educativo español incluye en su currículo las competencias que a nivel europeo se consideran clave para formar ciudadanos autónomos, reconociendo el carácter transversal de la competencia digital y su aplicación en múltiples ámbitos. El presente estudio pretende evaluar el nivel de competencia digital que poseen los alumnos de Educación Primaria en la ciudad de Ávila (España). Para ello se ha aplicado el enfoque metodológico cuantitativo no experimental, empleando técnicas estadísticas de tipo descriptivo. La muestra la conforman 325 alumnos de sexto curso de Educación Primaria, de colegios públicos y privados-concertados, de Ávila (España) y para la recogida de datos se utilizó una prueba de resolución de problemas. Los resultados muestran que el nivel de competencia digital de los alumnos de nuestra muestra es superior al esperado, que la variable género no influye notablemente y que los colegios privados-concertados poseen un menor nivel de competencia digital que los centros públicos. Se concluye que se requieren políticas educativas eficaces que no subestimen la competencia digital del alumnado, que sean capaces de fomentar la alfabetización mediática y de posibilitar que los estudiantes no solo se sitúen frente a una pantalla, sino de que lo hagan de forma eficaz.
Tareas escolares en tiempos de confinamiento Covid-19. Percepción familiar en función de las variables escolares

Published: January 2023

The debate on homework opens up again in pandemic times to remind us not only of the responsibility of the agents involved, but also of the controversies that exist around the time, emotional exhaustion, benefits and competencies it promotes. With the aim of finding out the status of homework during confinement, an empirical study was carried out with a descriptive-correlational, cross-sectional and non-experimental design. For this purpose, an ad hoc instrument called "Coping with homework in the family during confinement", validated by experts, was administered telematically, in which a total of 1982 families from all over Spain participated. The results show that there are significant differences for each of the study variables (quantity, benefits, competencies and emotional exhaustion) between the different educational stages (infant, primary and secondary), with the academic performance of the students and with the presence of specific educational support needs, except for the quantity variable. On the other hand, no significance was found with the type of school. In this way, both teachers and educational centers have to establish non-mechanistic creative tasks and, in turn, articulate support and collaboration with families in the performance of school tasks, especially those with children with specific needs.

El debate sobre las tareas escolares se abre nuevamente en tiempos pandémicos para recordarnos no sólo la responsabilidad de los agentes implicados, sino también las controversias que existen en torno al tiempo, desgaste emocional, beneficios y competencias que promueve. Con el objetivo de conocer el estado de los deberes durante el confinamiento, se llevó a cabo un estudio empírico con un diseño descriptivo-correlacional, transversal y no experimental. Para ello, se administró telemáticamente un instrumento ad hoc denominado “El afrontamiento de las tareas escolares en la familia durante el confinamiento”, validado por expertos, en el que participaron un total de 1982 familias de todo el territorio español. Los resultados muestran que existen diferencias significativas para cada una de las variables de estudio (cantidad, beneficios, competencias y desgaste emocional) entre las distintas etapas educativas (infantil, primaria y secundaria), con el rendimiento académico del alumnado y con la presencia de necesidades específicas de apoyo educativo, salvo para la variable cantidad. En cambio, no se encontró significación con la titularidad del centro. De esta forma, tanto docentes como centros educativos, han de establecer el envío de tareas creativas no mecanicista y, a su vez, articular soporte de apoyo y colaboración con las familias en el desempeño de las tareas escolares, especialmente en aquellas con hijos con necesidades específicas.

Intertextuality in Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown
Authors: Martynuska Małgorzata
Published: January 2023

Intertextuality has frequently featured in postmodern literature and film. By mixing various genres, intertextuality enables a more flexible crossing of the film’s boundaries and allows filmmakers to experiment with artistic form. The film’s style or scenes resonate through other movies creating intertextual references. Hence, intertextuality is an approach that analyzes how one text is related to already available texts and discourses. Nonetheless, the successful perception of intertextual references requires a certain degree of comprehension ability from the film’s audience. This essay examines the intertextuality of Quentin Tarantino’s film Jackie Brown. The article has the three-fold aims: first, to analyze the movie as an adaptation of Elmore Leonard’s crime novel Rum Punch; second, to highlight Jackie Brown’s tribute to the blaxploitation cinema of the 1970s; third, to focus on the film’s intertextual crossings with other movies and film genres.
“We’re missing the Latino attorney or astronaut as the hero”: Latinx Presence in Hollywood in the 20th and 21st Centuries
Authors: Zygadło Grażyna
Published: January 2023

The article examines the Latinx presence throughout the history of American cinema and analyses the reasons for the mis- and underrepresentation of Latinos/as in Hollywood productions focusing on major stereotypes and politics of American government towards this ethnic group influencing their cinematic description. The final part discusses the recent works produced by Latinos/as and telling their stories in the twenty-first century to demonstrate that Latinos/as are the integral part of American society who want to be justly represented and have the possibility to speak in their own name.
The Hero Who Disappointed: Images of Lajos Kossuth and the Hungarian Revolution of 1848/49 in Livermore’s Zoë; or the Quadroon’s Triumph
Authors: Bozkurt-Pekár Deniz
Published: January 2023

This article studies US American perceptions of the European Revolutions of 1848/49, especially the different receptions of the Hungarian revolutionary leader Lajos Kossuth’s sojourn in the US, through an analysis of a rather unknown novel Zoë; or the Quadroon’s Triumph (1855). Benefiting from different sources, the article examines the impacts of the revolutions of Europe in the US literary, cultural, religious, and political sceneries by pointing to how even non-canonical works reflected upon these influences.

n this article, we provide a map representing the whole distribution area of Iberomys cabrerae, displayed in UTM System, at a scale of 10x10 km squares. Our results show that a) the records are included in 420 squares, which are grouped in four large, disjunct nuclei: Luso-Carpetanian, Montiberian, Baetic and Prepyrenean, the Luso-Carpetanian grouping the largest number of populations, and the Prepyrenean (isolated and threatened) including the smallest number of populations; b) it is necessary to conduct surveys in certain poorly explored areas; and c) available data on the population status are unbalanced in quality and geographic distribution, providing an inaccurate picture of the global conservation status, and preventing the development of global strategies for an adequate conservation and management of the species.

In this work, the interaction among multiple bubbles in a cavitation field is investigated by combining the experimental observation of small bubbles hovering around large bubbles. A model composed of three bubbles is developed, and the dynamic behavior of cavitation bubble is analyzed. By considering the time delay effect of the interaction among bubbles and the nonspherical oscillation of large bubbles, the modified bubble dynamic equations are obtained. Numerical results show that the nonspherical effect of large bubbles has little effect on the oscillation of cavitation bubble. The suppressive effect of large bubble on cavitation bubble is closely related to the radius of the large bubble. The larger the size of the large bubble, the stronger the suppression is. When the size of large bubble approaches to the resonant radius, the oscillation of cavitation bubble presents coupled resonance response, and the maximum expansion radius of bubble shows a resonance peak. The distribution of the secondary Bjerknes force versus bubble radius and the separation distance is strongly influenced by driving frequencies or sound pressure. When the large bubble is on the order of submillimeter, the intensity of the secondary Bjerknes force and the acoustic response mode are different due to the different intensity of the nonlinear response of the cavitation bubble. As the distance decreases, when the acoustic pressure increases to a certain value, the secondary Bjerknes force on the cavitation bubble decreases due to abnormal acoustic absorption. The secondary Bjerknes force on cavitation bubble is likely to be repulsive at different separation distances. The theoretical results accord well with experimental phenomenon.

Although the theory of analog gravity suggests that we can simulate the space-time structure of black holes by using laboratory physical systems, it is difficult to find the analogs for rotating black holes in laboratory systems. In this work, we use a new field form for the optical vortex to study the analogous black hole structure close to the Bañados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole. We compare the similarities and differences between massless particles and sound waves by calculating their motions in space-time analogous to BTZ black holes and gravitational BTZ black holes. The effective potential energy values of massless particles and sound waves in both kinds of black hole spacetimes give the same forbidden-zone distributions of energy and angular momentum. The difference is that the classical forbidden area of the BTZ black hole will approach fixed energy values along the radial direction, while the classical forbidden area of the analogous BTZ black hole will be closed along the radial direction. Fortunately, near the event horizon and the ergosphere, the behaviors of massless particles and sound waves are almost the same. From this point of view, we can say that the analogous experimental system can simulate the BTZ black hole very well. In particular, the classically forbidden regions of particles with low energy and high angular momentum are wider in both types of black hole space-time.
Differential processing of decision information in subregions of rodent medial prefrontal cortex
Authors: Diehl Geoffrey W , Redish A David
Published: January 2023

Decision-making involves multiple cognitive processes requiring different aspects of information about the situation at hand. The rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been hypothesized to be central to these abilities. Functional studies have sought to link specific processes to specific anatomical subregions, but past studies of mPFC have yielded controversial results, leaving the precise nature of mPFC function unclear. To settle this debate, we recorded from the full dorso-ventral extent of mPFC in each of 8 rats, as they performed a complex economic decision task. These data revealed four distinct functional domains within mPFC that closely mirrored anatomically identified subregions, including novel evidence to divide prelimbic cortex into dorsal and ventral components. We found that dorsal aspects of mPFC (ACC, dPL) were more involved in processing information about active decisions, while ventral aspects (vPL, IL) were more engaged in motivational factors.
A filter design for T-S fuzzy systems based on moving horizon estimator with measurement noise
Authors: Gao Hui , Wang Yixuan , Hu Jing
Published: January 2023

In this article, a filter based on moving horizon estimator is proposed with Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy controllers for a kind of unknown discrete-time system. The T-S fuzzy control algorithm is employed to handle the unknown system dynamics, thus ensuring the property of input-to-state stability (ISS) of the system, which guarantees the boundedness of all states. Besides, the proposed filter and controller can significantly improve the robustness of the system with external disturbance, even if the disturbance has non-Gaussian characteristics. Finally, the effectiveness of the presented algorithm is demonstrated by simulation examples under two kind of noise situations.
