In this paper, I discuss the conditions for the possibility of the existence of time according to Aristotle’s Physics IV, 10-14. For this purpose, I present three thought experiments that help to clarify the nature of time. According to my reading, motion is not a sufficient condition for the existence of time; such condition is, instead, that motion could be measured—even if it is not actually measured. There is time when a movement can be put in a relation of proportion with another movement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study, centered on the emergency waiting room at the Pachuca, Hidalgo General Hospital Emergency Department, underlines the concept of mechanical solidarity that emerges in individuals’ practices contrasted with other locations. The author uses Durkheim’s and Simmel’s theories together with Alejandro Paya’s most recent research on hospitals. The article is divided into three parts: the lay-out of the hospital and its sectors, emphasizing the emergency waiting room; an analysis of waiting as a sociological phenomenon, in which each area experiences its own temporal reality; and a reflection about how people’s presence in this space modifies social life, including relatives and the ideal Good Samaritan. In this context, the author underlines how people form mechanical solidarity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Through this research, it is proven that the face-to-face open book exam helps the student to better apply the knowledge acquired. In the educational setting, unlike closed-book exams, which typically test a student's ability to understand and retain information as well as memory skills, the detailed question types of openbook exams should test the student's ability to understand and retain information. to apply knowledge to specific situations and solve problems, evaluate cognitive skills and critical thinking capacity, ability to face challenges, ability to have obtained certainty, but also to seek quality information and select the most appropriate sources. Additionally, if the question may have required students to justify the answer, it will be more difficult for them to find the answer in the book, which will subject their thinking to an evaluation. Generally, these reviews are based on real cases. Teachers from public and private educational units in Ecuador were taken as a reference for this research. According to the population, the simple random method was used to prepare surveys and verify the feasibility of this theorem. The research is verified as viable, according to the study, the feasibility of applying this face-to-face evaluation process to students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article titled "THE SCENIC ALEPH: The temporal system of the video-scenic screen" analyzes the modifications that the audiovisual projection screen introduces in the temporal component of video-scenic works. The study is based on Theatrical Theory and Audiovisual Narration Theory, using dramatological analysis to approach specific video-scenic products. The introduction of the audiovisual screen expands the temporal flexibility of drama, allowing an expansion of the represented time through a multifocalized discourse. [Extracted from the article]

Background: It is important to understand how consultation time relates to patient satisfaction, as these two variables have not been extensively studied together. Objective: To determine the correlation between consultation time and patient satisfaction in primary care settings in Mexico. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional, observational, and analytical study that included patients over 18 years old. Time was measured using a stopwatch, and satisfaction was assessed using the Patient Doctor Relationship Questionnaire (PDRQ-9). The correlation between both variables was analyzed using the Spearman test, and multiple linear regression was employed to associate satisfaction with the consultation. Results: A total of 115 participants were included. The average consultation duration was 12.1 minutes, and 74% of patients reported that the consultation time was adequate. A weak positive correlation (p < 0.001, r = 0.38) was found between actual consultation time and satisfaction. Multiple linear regression demonstrated that for every minute increase in consultation time, level of satisfaction increased in 0.04 units (p = 0.001, CI95%: 0.016-0.063). Conclusion: Most patients reported satisfaction with the duration of their medical consultation, and longer consultation times were associated with higher satisfaction levels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article tries some reflections about links between speeches of time and school logics --particularly of highschool level-- related to time appropriation regimes. It looks closely at their coexistence during the origins of educational systems, recognizing in so doing a certain continuity or alliance among such regimes, in order to subsequently present an analysis about the way these links operate nowadays. The article also accounts for the mutations the context of consumer societies imprints upon the time ownership patterns of appropriation of temporality compared to the modern era, and for the tensions the processes of secondary schooling are exposed to in such a context. The approach to these tensions is based on recent research conducted in Argentina about the school experience of young people and adolescents, and on the letter of official documents on the regulation of the Argentine education system. Finally, the article includes the challenges in the face of manifest tensions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present work, a calculation methodology is proposed to determine the filling and / or emptying times of the tanks in the pumping source systems. It focuses on solving a discrete calculation model that takes into account the main hydraulic variables that characterize three schemes or cases of design and operation in these systems. Two discrete approach calculation models are presented as a function of height and time, which are implemented in the MATLAB version R2013b numerical computing system for the comparison of different variants of the design schemes described. Both analytical procedures are used to solve a practical example where the three cases of operation are illustrated for different variants and calculation alternatives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This text offers the result of the dialogue, in the form of an interview, held with the French historian François Hartog in September 2022. The discussion is focused on Chronos, a book recently translated into Spanish, which closes the circle of his reflections on time while simultaneously opening up new routes. The interview is preceded by an introductory study in which both the career of this intellectual and some of the most relevant approaches in his work are briefly reviewed, and we trace the paths of their reception in Mexico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The human wills, eudaimonia and the conceptions about time in the work The Art of Surviving are part of the fundamental thematic axes that Schopenhauer outlines and analytically breaks down, the peculiar philosophy of this irrationalist is controversial and opposes the contemporary philosophical approaches known since Cartesian epistemological method. Through deductive-inductive philosophical analysis and his "negative philosophy" "the enigma of the world or evil" was addressed, with which he reconsidered how each individual time of men must fulfill its cycle of advancement; one of the "real goals of existence" is inconclusive if the evils and pains of the world of men are not considered in their eternal interaction. The original Aristotelian eudaimonia does not contain an ontological fullness, it is placed under the critical prism of the thinker; the aporias of his questioning spirit lead him to formulate phenomenal-existential questions that demand answers with a greater irrational background substrate that concerned him living in that convulsed temporality. The so-called pleasure of the desire to live of men must be reviewed to go through the culminating cycle of a more essential happiness (Wesen), since the supreme good of happiness implies unraveling phenomenal wills of human virtue (Tugend); the "true happiness" requires a phenomenology of the pleasant happiness of what it is to be happy, and this, often, obeys the potentiality of the unconscious wills of humans, Schopenhauer typifies them among those who "live too much" in the state of the impatience of the future or the stubble of the sensory past. When the wisdom of life consists philosophically in discerning with methodical acuity and thorough intellect the differences between past, present and future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the developments that have been carried out in Uruguayan institutions regarding standards of the quantities of time and frequency. The period analyzed covers about 80 years. Therefore, the technologies were very diverse, from oscillators based on quartz crystals and vacuum tube electronics, to modern cesium clocks, based on the transition of their electronic levels. The relative stabilities, then, cover several orders of magnitude, from 10-7 to 10-13, which demonstrates the great progress that the development of this physical quantity has had in Uruguay. The current state of the National Standard of Uruguay, based on cesium clocks, has reached uncertainties that are low enough to be admitted as part of the international system that defines the time, UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).

The findings of an investigation that characterized the practices that teachers implement to counteract the control over their time and manage to resist the coercion carried out by the policies of evaluation and quality of contemporary education are exposed. A non-probabilistic survey was carried out applying a self-completed questionnaire by teachers from the city of Bogotá. It was possible to identify that teachers find a joyous display in the teaching practice, but that the search for quality, understood as effectiveness and efficiency demonstrated in evidence, make their work have a bureaucratic dimension that was not so dense a few decades ago. Teachers resist and re-exist from the autonomy of time as a display of freedom, trying to display the joy that teaching produces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Through her characters, Mexican writer Amparo Dávila masterly explores the perception of elapsing time and its effects.

This project seeks to recognize the impressions that two ephemeral spaces left on its visitors as an extension of the inhabited space, contextualized in the celebration of Christmas on a citizen scale: the Christmas Show Noel and the Christmas lighting of the municipality of Envigado, Colombia, identifying the emotions that users experienced in their different pavilions, the description of the spatial factors that caused an impact on visitors to these ephemeral Christmas projects, to the relationship of the different sensations generated by the spatial experience, as well as their effects on the remembrance of events. The present research was carried out based on the interpretive phenomenological methodology to achieve a qualitative analysis through a bibliographic and documentary review, structured and semi-structured interviews, as well as the design of tests in the neuromarketing laboratory and a/b testing. This was done to find the synchrony between volunteers who are seeking these types of venues, as well as the opinion of experts against the recognition of the impressions that ephemeral cultural spaces achieve on visitors and designers. In conclusion, ephemeral cultural spaces, despite their short existence, can mediate between aspired permanence and are qualified by experience. This type of space can represent the cultural moment of their immediate society. The design of the experience should make an impression in the memory of the visitors through astonishment, the nostalgia of the ephemerality of the event, to achieve an extension in time of the space that is no longer there.

The cinematographic work of the director Carlos Velo (1966) refers to the text of the same title, Pedro Páramo, of the writer Juan Rulfo (1955). Velo's film decodes the meaning of the preceding work, where it is very difficult to differentiate between life and death. In order to achieve this, the director incorporates some of the elements that define the conception of the new «fantastic», according to the multidisciplinary current developed in different theoretical approaches. Similarly, special attention is paid to the treatment of the present, continuum temporalis, and the past, non continuum temporalis, as well as to elements related to memory that refer to the past histories of the characters' lives in Velo's film.

This article offers a comparative review of ethnographies performed and published as part of the Harvard Chiapas Project (1957-2000), on towns located in Los Altos de Chiapas, Mexico. Although the authors are participantsin the same project, it is possible to identify in their works different ways of making connections between past and present and, therefore, of projecting notions of History and Time. To show these differences, texts by three anthropologists who participated unevenly in the Harvard Chiapas Project (one of the longest-running research programs in the history of the discipline) are reviewed: Evon Vogt, Victoria Bricker and Robert Wasserstrom. The review does not cover the entire production of the project (with more than a hundred people involved). Nor is it aimed at the populations studied, nor at specific ethnographic objects such as the "cargo system" or the "carnival". What is pursued to show is the presence of different frames of Time and History within which ethnographies operate and, consequently, the ambiguousform of the resulting ethnographic objects. The text is the product of a broader investigation of the anthropology of anthropology, based on archival documents and published products of the Harvard Chiapas Project. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The legal world and the real world consider some facts relevant, qualifying them as legal categories, death being one of them. In both worlds the fact of death is assumed from different approaches, always as the end of life and the beginning of something else. In this essay, by means of a periodic review, the fact of death as a finite category is approached, analyzing a hypothetical case of resurrection. Death and resurrection are described from different perspectives, with the support of examples of how they have been approached by mythology, cinema, science and literature. Finally, some reflections are made regarding the legal effects that resurrection could generate, considering in any case, the time variable, that is, if the period of death were to be prolonged.
