To effectively address the grand challenges of our time, we cannot simply tinker around the edges by fixing market failures. We must actively shape markets to deliver on the objective of generating more sustainable and inclusive growth. This paper argues that an objective-oriented economy requires a market-shaping approach; one that accompanies the concept of the public good with the common good framing that is needed to design the interface for this collaboration. This is about structuring the conditions and governance mechanisms that shape the capabilities, tools, institutions, and partnerships needed to take concrete action. Building collective intelligence into these dimensions ex-ante is essential for maximising public value for all actors involved. This paper sets out how a market-shaping and common good framing can be conceptualised and brought together. Importantly, missions can be used to orient and coordinate policies, institutions, innovation, and investments around clear, ambitious, and measurable goals. Further, this paper addresses the implications for key global challenges, from climate change to pandemics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Psychological well-being is the state of satisfaction when an individual possesses optimal functioning, experiences emotional stability, feels fulfilled in terms of personal goals, and is able to face adversities throughout his or her life. The objective of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the BIEPS-A psychological well-being scale in Ecuadorian university students. The method used was a nonexperimental cross-sectional instrumental method. The participants were 522 students, 44.3% male and 55.7% female, with a mean age of 21.0. The results indicate that the BIEPS-A has a Cronbach's alpha of 0.833 and is divided into three factors which are self-determination, interpersonal relationships and decision making. It is concluded that this instrument shows to be reliable and valid by presenting adequate psychometric properties in the Ecuadorian context. In addition, significant differences were found in psychological well-being, since men presented higher mean scores compared to women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Talking about quality today not only refers to industrial processes that result in material objects with certain characteristics, because if we apply it to the clinical field, it refers to patient health care, prevents preventable errors and requires an environment sure. A process that benefits the patient. Clinical laboratories are part of this healthcare industry and are therefore subject to largely preventable errors. The purpose of this article is to promote and apply patient safety in the clinical laboratory. The methods used were of the literature type, and appropriate databases such as PudMed, Scielo, Scopus, Web of Science, Elseiver, Scholar, etc. were used to search for information. To access and read peer-reviewed journals, we searched by year of publication and past five years, i.e. 2017 to 2022. A total of 45 articles were collected to support the specific goals identified here. Our study also concluded that there is a need to diagnose the patient safety situation in clinical laboratories. It was also determined that the most frequent errors that affect patient safety in clinical laboratories are diagnostic errors. And corrective actions must be proposed to reduce adverse events that affect patient safety, such as training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study of enjoyment, defined as a positive affective state that occurs when a person engages in an experience or activity that satisfies a desire, goal, or need, is a topic of growing interest in Psychology. The objective of this work is to delve into theoretical aspects of this phenomenon and explore how it is expressed in the execution of musical instruments. Method. Musical instrument performers (n=210) participated (18.8% women and 81.2% men). Instruments. Sociodemographic questionnaire and Inventory of Enjoyment in Musical Performance (IDEM). An analysis of descriptive statistics, correlation and a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were carried out. The results allow to conclude that the enjoyment of musical instrument performers, unlike what happens with other activities, includes emotional, cognitive, motivational and contextual aspects related to each other. Likewise, this experience is expressed as a state, but also as a process and as a result. Given the conceptual and empirical developments, it is important to consider enjoyment as relational and in the context of vital meanings of the person. Finally, knowing how this experience is expressed in specific activities as well as the factors that determine it, allows promoting it to contribute to a better quality of life for the subjects.

This paper has two specific goals. The first is to demonstrate that the theorem in Metaphysics T 9, 1051a24-27 is not equivalent to Euclid's Proposition 32 of book I (which contradicts some Aristotelian commentators, such as W. D. Ross, J. L. Heiberg, and T. L. Heith). Agreeing with Henry Mendell's analysis, I argue that the two theorems are not equivalent, but I offer different reasons for such divergence: I propose a pedagogical-philosophical reason for the Aristotelian theorem being shorter than the Euclidean one (and the previous Aristotelian versions). Aristotle wants to emphasize the deductive procedure as a satisfactory method to discover scientific knowledge. The second objective, opposing some consensus about geometrical deductions/theorems in Aristotle, is to briefly propose that the theorem, exactly as we found it in Metaphysics and without any emendation to the text (therefore opposing Henry Mendell's suggested amendments), allows the ancient philosopher to demonstrate that universal mathematical knowledge is in potence in geometrical figures. This tentatively proves that Aristotle emphasizes that geometrical deduction is sufficient to actualize mathematical knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study gathers teachers’ perceptions in a peer observation practice as a mechanism for professional development. Based on a collaborative and mutual observation, 131 teachers agree on observation foci and observe each other in a class session, offering feedback to set personal goals for improvement. The results from a pretest-postest indicate a decrease in resistance and an increase in some dimensions of the teaching agency. Descriptive analyses show positive participant perceptions, particularly in the collaborative stages. Although not all of them set goals for improvement, it has been possible to trace how they emerge and are refined during the process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A self-regulated student is guided by task-oriented strategies, seeks to achieve his personal goals, and monitors his or her behavior in terms of his goals. This paper presents the results of a quantitative study whose purpose was to describe the components of self-regulated learning used by students in their online learning processes and to determine if there are significant differences in the way that these components are used. In this investigation, a questionnaire was applied to 306 students of online courses, and the data obtained were processed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA of one factor of repeated measures. The results showed that most of the factors and strategies of self-regulates learning are used in an acceptable way; in addition, significant differenceswere found of the motivational component and in the strategies of the behavioral and contextual component. The findings of the study provide instructional designers with information on the aspects that can be emphasizes to motivate students, which would contribute to the development of different types of skills and methods to self-regulate their learning, training that will allow them to advance more successfully through their education, regardless of the modality in which they work.

In this work we try to answer the next question: What are the trajectories, tensions, rearticulations in the Latin American critical thought of Communication? These are broad questions and ambitious objectives, for which we carry out a series of micro-exercises to help us narrow down the question: review the proposal of the other reflection group "Towards a Possible Communicology", analyze the ALAIC/ECREA editorial proposal and finally synthesize some concerns within the history of ideas in the region in its link with communication. In the end, we make a summary of precisely these tensions and a couple of challenges that we believe are presented for Latin American communicology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes comparatively from a historical approach the life and charisma of two main characters of the history of the contemporary Catholic Church: The Spanish Josemaría Escrivá de Balaguer y Albás and the Mexican Marcial Maciel Degollado; as well as their respective religious works: Opus Dei and the Legionaries of Christ. The paper builds on the concept of charism in its dual meaning: that which refers to historical individuals who are built as leaders alongside their followers, such as these two characters; and the charism of religious works created and seen by their founders who are recipients of the divine call to live the faith with specific goals that give its followers an identity and an organization within the framework of the Catholic Church. The two leaders sought closeness with the ecclesiastical hierarchy and with the powerful classes, so that the gospel is oriented to the spiritual tranquility of the elites in an exchange that leads to the understanding that fosters social and religious conservatism with mutual benefits, hence their close collaboration. They are examples of a Catholic prosperity theology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This document analyzes the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on online communication, using Habermas' Theory of Communicative Action. It argues that AI, which is based on goal-oriented rationality, can affect speech acts on the Internet and generate its own speech acts. An example is mentioned of how a bank's AI sends emails to a potential client to offer them a loan. The possibility is raised that AI could carry out collective speech acts on broader topics, which could have implications for deliberative democracy. The importance of considering the ethical implications of AI is emphasized. [Extracted from the article]

The digital transformation generated vertiginous and important changes in the media industry. There is content saturation and variation in the consumption pattern. Audiences migrated from traditional to digital media. Several were sold, while others were merged. New actors are inserted every day, increasing the competition from the media. Leadership, innovation, and creativity are some of the alternatives that the media can use to seize opportunities and become competitive. Transformational leadership is a style used in the communication industry sector, due to the same fact that in the newsroom (or production) it is necessary for leaders to have a behavior that favors creativity and innovation, in order to be more competitive. In this research, the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire - MLQ-5X instrument is used, which is a widely used tool to measure leadership. It is possible to establish that, in the public media, transformational leadership is the predominant style, that there is a considerable and positive correlation between idealized behavioral influence, intellectual stimulation and motivation and inspiration with satisfaction and effectiveness. Communication professionals from Public Media perceive that directors, bosses, and coordinators are leaders who motivate and inspire others to accomplish goals, they can even give more of themselves thanks to their engagement and trust.

Polo explains synderesis as a proactive principle. Human effusiveness needs personal discipline and formal organisation to be constructive. A harmonic relationship between intelligence and emotions constitutes a platform for hope and gratification. Feelings indicate that positive activities and good productions bring satisfaction and perfect the working person. Managers must exercise and promote activities to realise the company's goals. Goal-setting structures human time with a wide variety of means so that people can give more and keep on giving, i.e. without wearing themselves out unnecessarily. The OKR methodology concretises some of Polo's fundamental anthropological notions. Objective setting and instruments to measure results support workers' autonomy and initiative. The feedback given with this work system promotes trust and the internalisation of the gratifications for the results achieved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents the results of a study on the use of a makerspace in a Mexican university, a part of the institution's strategies to develop skills of innovation among its students. A mixed QUAL+QUAN design was used, with an initial stage of data collection and analysis through nonparticipant observation, interviews, and focus groups. The second stage consisted of surveying 2,149 students on the attributes of the makerspace. The findings show that the participants learn to establish goals, use tools, and solve problems in a social network that is constituted in the makerspace. In collaborative form, teams resolve the contradictions and tensions of the problems that draw them together, thus constructing the social practice of innovating. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article "Alternative Investments: A Shelter in Turbulent Times?" discusses the possibility of using alternative investments, such as artwork, real estate projects, cryptocurrencies, and hedge funds, as a refuge during times of economic turbulence. These investments offer higher returns and reduce volatility compared to traditional investments in stocks and bonds. The alternative investment industry has experienced considerable growth in recent years. However, the article warns about the risks associated with these investments, which can be high or very high, and recommends that they be considered by accredited investors. The article presents different types of alternative investments and their characteristics, such as hedge funds, private equity funds, private credits, real estate investments, commodities, collectibles, and cryptocurrencies. These investments require knowledgeable and patient investors, but can achieve attractive long-term returns if the risk is understood and realistic goals are established.

The goal of the study was to assess planning ability, in a visuoconstruction context, of a group of people with intellectual disability. The 70 participants were members of Aura Foundation diagnosed with moderate intellectual disability and were recruited by intentional sampling. Significant correlations were found between the nonverbal intellectual quotient, evaluated using the Raven Progressive Matrices, and the richness and accuracy of the Rey Figure drawing and between the nonverbal intellectual quotient and the type of creation of the figure. Participants with higher intellectual quotient scores were found to perform better task planning. A significant correlation was also found between the richness and accuracy of the Rey Figure and the type of creation used. These results demonstrate the importance of a support system that impulses the usage of complex strategies to achieve goals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
