Introduction: It is essential for Nursing to value scientific production for the development of an evidence-based practice. The research group is configured as a favorable space for the construction, improvement and development of intellectual skills. Objective: To report the experience of nursing students in founding a study group in the area of injuries. Methodology: Descriptive study of the experience report type about the experience in a group of nursing studies on skin lesions. Results: It was the first group of studies in the Nursing course of the aforementioned institution of higher education, focusing on undergraduate students. Social media were used to publicize the study group, which expanded the scope of the scientific content generated, in addition to exchanging experience with other professionals. The contents discussed in the group meetings were previously thought by the founding members and guiding professors. Active methodologies made it possible for academics to discover new skills, in addition to making them the center of learning Conclusion: The involvement of the academic in the study group allows and facilitates the advancement of knowledge production, which values nursing and allows to go beyond the execution of the technique and allows the action of a reflective practice.

The vision, purpose and methods of the UKRN and Open Research Programme

The OSS is a standard, modular survey to assess open scholarship attitudes, perceptions, and behavior of researchers

The palio of Siena, Italy, is a bareback horse race held in the city’s central square twice a year over the summer months. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of scholars and visitors alike — perhaps more so than the 17 contrade, the city’s territorial communities that participate in the event. Our aim is twofold. First, we provide a primer on the contemporary contrada system. Second, we describe systematically the relationships between contrada pairs, which can be classified into one of three types: alliance, neutral relationship, and rivalry. To this end, we draw on published materials and on recent field-based research, including a cross-contrada survey of over 500 contrada members, a psychological item measuring the attitude of members towards the contrade, and the analysis of GPS data from an annual ritual. We find that membership size varies from a few hundred to several thousand individuals, a majority of whom are members from birth with familial and social ties within the contrada. We also find patterned variation with respect to relationship type in the attitude of contrada members, as well as in ritualized behaviour. We highlight the importance of the contrada phenomenon and the impact of group relationship on perceptions and behaviour.
