The Silver Generation, the population made up of older adults, in countries like Spain and those in its immediate surroundings, represents a demographic segment in constant growth, as a consequence of the increase in life expectancy, and with an increasingly greater percentage weight on the total population, due to the decrease in the birth rate. The main objective of this work is to know and analyze the characteristics and behaviors of this diverse and heterogeneous demographic profile, which is gradually adapting to the use of new technologies, including their preferences regarding the different channels or media they use, the way they relate to the offering companies and their products and services, as well as their assessment of the effectiveness of current marketing strategies aimed at older people. A quantitative methodology has been used, based on a primary source, a survey carried out on people over 55 years of age residing in Spain. The results reflect the existence of significant discontent regarding advertising campaigns directed towards that generation, since they estimate that they do not use the most appropriate channels and coherent strategies, and they are not developed with respect to their way of being and thinking. It is concluded that personalization in treatment, the generation of trust and improving accessibility to new purchasing systems should allow for solid and lasting commercial relationships between companies and this generation.

Partiendo de que a los asesores de tesis de las universidades de nuestro país se les presentan diversas dificultades al momento de llevar a que los maestrantes redacten de forma adecuada los objetivos de investigación de sus respectivas tesis, y que las capacidades requeridas a nivel neuropsicológico implicadas en dicha redacción se perciben bajas en dichos maestrantes, esta investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar la relación entre el nivel neuropsicológico y la capacidad para redactar objetivos de investigación por parte de los participantes de las maestrías de Psicología durante el tercer trimestre del 2021. Para ello se redactó un problema de investigación para el cual debían redactar los objetivos, los cuales fueron valorados a través de una rúbrica. Adicionalmente, se aplicó el Luria-DNA a cada participante, cuyos resultados en conjunto con los de la rúbrica evidencian que la capacidad para redactar objetivos de investigación se encuentra relacionada más directamente a los procesos intelectuales mediados por las funciones corticales superiores, que a las demás funciones neurocognitivas.

This study explored the existence of the profile of the rapist in Spain, as well as the differences between sexual aggressors according to the age of the victim, in relation to the modus operandi and the previous relationship, and the effect that the latter variable could have on the victimization theme. For this purpose, a non-experimental study was carried out with a sample of 36 sentences of those convicted of rape in Spain, in the period December 2023 and January 2024. Statistically significant differences were found between offenders who chose victims under 16 years of age and those who chose victims 16 years of age or older in the modus operandi, the existence of a previous relationship and kinship. In addition, the absence of a clear profile of rapist was confirmed. However, no significant differences were found in the victimization theme. It is concluded that, given the characteristics of the rapist found, together with the differences in the modus operandi, emphasis should be placed on intervention prior to the criminal act, as well as on individualizing prevention and intervention programs.

The growing interest in applying gamified designs in higher education is challenged by mixed results in terms of student acceptance. Different players are attracted to games for different reasons and game design elements, and a better understanding of how each learner will connect to different game mechanics provides valuable input for game design and evaluation. In this paper, we present and validate a scale to measure the affinity of each player with different game elements. First, a theoretical review was carried out on three profile classifications and six motivational theoretical models, proposing a taxonomy for twelve player profiles based on three axes: relational, competence and motivational. Then, a pilot test was carried out with 54 subjects, analysing content and comprehension validity through the judgment of six experts and construct validity through an exploratory factorial analysis. Subsequently, with a sample of 1010 subjects, a confirmatory factor analysis was performed. The scale was made up of 30 items, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.822; three main components were obtained: dominators, interactors and trackers. The results show the validity of the scale, with high levels of confidence. It provides an understanding of the player's profile in a playful context, their motivational orientation and their affinity with the specific game design. This can be used to improve the design of gamified experiences in higher education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Los vínculos entre datos, algoritmos y dispositivos configuran desarrollos de sistemas fuertes de inteligencia artificial que impactan en los modos de ser y estar en el mundo. El artículo se orienta establecer implicaciones psicopolíticas de las inteligencias artificiales sobre el cuerpo, mediante una hermenéutica analógica de textos (2010-2021) en sus fases sintáctica, semántica y pragmática, que permita establecer una analogía entre los posibles beneficios, riesgos y oportunidades para los cuerpos y las subjetividades. Los resultados indican implicaciones en la reconfiguración del cuerpo en los escenarios digital, el mercado de los perfiles o nuevas formas de ser y estar en el mundo digital, así como el ejercicio de una psicopolítica en diferentes etapas: manipulación, modificación de conductas y gobernanza. Las conclusiones apuntan a nuevas prácticas del neoliberalismo orientadas a la interioridad de los sujetos y a la comercialización de los perfiles configurados mediante sistemas de inteligencia artificial.

Resumen El objetivo del estudio fue conocer el perfil profesional y satisfacción laboral de los técnicos deportivos que trabajan con jóvenes estudiantes de educación secundaria obligatoria y bachillerato en servicios deportivos públicos (Ayuntamiento) y privados (empresas, asociaciones y clubes) dada la importancia que tiene su repercusión respecto a la calidad del servicio. La muestra estuvo formada por 60 trabajadores entre 18 y 62 años, siendo el 76,7% hombres y el 23,3% mujeres. Se utilizó un cuestionario ad hoc para determinar su perfil y el Overall Job Satisfaction de Warr, Cook y Wall (1979), adaptado al español por Pérez Bilbao y Fidalgo Vega (1995), para conocer su grado de satisfacción. La mayoría tienen contratos de voluntariado o eventuales, con sueldos que no superan los 500 €. Se encontró una correlación significativa y negativa entre la titulación y la satisfacción extrínseca (r=-0,133). La satisfacción se encontró más alta en la dimensión intrínseca que en la extrínseca. Dentrode las subescalas, los valores más altos de satisfacción se dieron en la libertad en la forma de trabajar y los más bajos en el salario. En conclusión, los técnicos en general están satisfechos mostrando mayores niveles las mujeres que los hombres. Abstract The objective of this study was to know the professional profile and professional satisfaction of sports instructors who work with compulsory secondary education and baccalaureate students in public (town hall) and private (companies, associations and clubs) sport services, given the importance of their impact on service quality. The sample consisted of 60 workers between 18 and 62 years old, 76,7% men and 23,3% women. An ad hoc questionnaire was used to determine their profile and the Overall Job Satisfaction of Warr, Cook and Wall (1979), adapted to Spanish by Pérez Bilbao and Fidalgo Vega (1995), to find out their degree of satisfaction. Most of them are volunteer or have eventual contracts, with salaries under 500 €. A significant and negative correlation was found between qualifications and extrinsic satisfaction (r=-0.133). Satisfaction was found to be higher in the intrinsic dimension than in the extrinsic one. Within the subscales, the highest satisfaction values were related to freedom at work, while the lowest was related to salary. In conclusion, instructors are in general satisfied, showing women higher levels than men.

O presente texto é resultado do Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso - TCC no âmbito do Curso de Licenciatura em Pedagogia - CAFS-UFPI, que teve como objetivo analisar o perfil socioeconômico, profissional e formativo dos egressos do CL em Pedagogia do CAFS/UFPI, entre 2009 e 2019. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, com uma abordagem quantiqualitativa sob a técnica de análise de conteúdo. Referências básicas: CORRÊA (2022), MARIANO (2006), PDI/UFPI (2020/2024), BARDIN (2016), SELLTIZ (1967), entre outras. A coleta de dados foi realizada através de questionário com perguntas abertas e fechadas enviadas a 378 egressos que fizeram o curso de 2013.1 a 2019.4. Destes egressos, 60 devolveram os questionários respondidos. Os resultados/conclusões são: maioria é do sexo feminino, solteiras/os sem filhos e na faixa etária entre 18 e 35 anos; 54 egressos ganham na faixa de 1 até 5 salários mínimos e maioria tem origem social rural; maioria não trabalhava ao ingressar no curso, hoje 54 estão trabalhando; maioria continuou/continua estudando pós-graduação, latu e stricto sensu; maioria está satisfeita com o curso ao qual atribui conceitos de ótimo e bom; sugestões: fortalecer teoria-prática na atuação docente, formação continuada, ampliação de eventos de ensino, pesquisa, extensão, dentre outras.

Analisar o perfil de estudantes do Ensino Superior é uma das formas de conhecê-los e evitar a sua evasão. Nesse sentido, essa pesquisa objetiva investigar diferentes aspectos relacionados ao perfil dos ingressantes dos cursos de graduação oferecidos pelo campus de Parauapebas da Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia – UFRA. Isso inclui a análise da proporção de alunos que concluem seus cursos de primeira escolha, bem como a consideração de variáveis como idade, tempo de estudo, obstáculos encontrados nas disciplinas e proficiência Língua Inglesa. Foram obtidos dados referentes ao ano de 2020 de 202 estudantes matriculados no primeiro semestre em cinco cursos distintos. Identificou-se que, nos cursos noturnos da UFRA, como Administração e Engenharia de Produção, a faixa etária dos alunos tende a ser mais elevada, com grande parte deles exercendo atividades profissionais e, consequentemente, tendo menos tempo disponível para dedicar aos estudos. Verifica-se, ainda, que a maioria dos ingressantes é composta por pessoas do gênero feminino e que o curso de graduação que estão frequentando representa a escolha inicial que fizeram durante o processo seletivo do vestibular. Observa-se também uma grande dificuldade que esses alunos tiveram no Ensino Médio em disciplinas de ciências exatas, o que pode dificultar o seu rendimento em sua jornada acadêmica de graduação. Assim, busca-se melhor atender esses alunos em suas necessidades estudantis, elevando assim o grau de satisfação dos estudantes e a qualidade dos futuros profissionais.

The profile of the Student Affairs teams (SEPAE) was sought to know the transformations on the praxis in the pandemic of the Federal Institute of Paraná (IFPR). The quantitative and qualitative method was carried out through an online questionnaire. Fifty-three response forms were received. The results indicated the profile was composed of an interdisciplinary background, female, aged between thirty-one and fifty years old and working for more than six years in the area. The analysis categories point to the distant proximity between the IFPR and the students, the insufficiency of the student assistance policy, and the subjective meaning of the policy as a financial contribution. The limits of the praxis were the new demands, the operators’ lack of knowledge, budget cuts and the ‘stipend’ conception of student assistance. As possibilities, the consolidation of SEPAE in the implementation of permanence as a link between the school and the students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introducción: la comunidad científica del taekwondo ha realizado un esfuerzo por perfeccionar el sistema de selección de talentos, pero no han logrado potenciar los indicadores genéticos que no pueden ser modificados con el entrenamiento deportivo. Objetivo: elaborar el perfil de la ratio para ser utilizado como un indicador durante la detección del potencial genético de los talentos en el taekwondo. Materiales y métodos: se utiliza la población de la selección nacional de Cuba del sexo femenino. Se emplean los métodos del nivel teórico analítico-sintético, inductivo-deductivo, se ponderan la medición, así como, los estadístico-matemáticos, determinando las medidas de tendencia central, coeficiente de correlación. Resultados: en relación a los indicadores o marcadores biológicos que permiten conocer el potencial genético y diferenciar los componentes físicos se encuentra la ratio de los dedos de las manos. Conclusiones: el perfil de la ratio permite ser utilizado en la detección de talento durante el proceso de selección deportiva. Los usuarios consideran que constituye una propuesta viable como indicador durante la detección de los talentos deportivos.

Este trabajo aborda las estrategias de gobierno, asociativas y socio-productivas que desplegaron las cooperativas agropecuarias pampeanas para competir con éxito en el marco de políticas agrarias y cooperativas que tendían a favorecer a las agroindustriales más capitalizadas, fundamentalmente entre 1960 y mediados de 1980. Para ello, recuperamos las potencialidades heurísticas de la reducción de escala. La cooperativa Agrícola de Monte Maíz Ltda. (radicada en el sur este de la provincia de Córdoba) nos habilita una puerta de entrada para pensar en la interrelación entre las características de la estructura organizativa e institucional que se gesta en cada contexto y las disposiciones más duraderas que forman parte del perfil institucional que va cristalizando en estas empresas. Para ello, apelamos a un conjunto variado de fuentes entre las que se encuentran censos agropecuarios, documentos institucionales y entrevistas.

Introdução: A malária é uma doença tropical com grande importância em saúde pública em virtude das altas taxas de morbidade e mortalidade no mundo, principalmente, se considerarmos a infeção nas crianças, um grupo suscetível às formas graves da doença. Acrescenta-se, o impacto do surgimento e da disseminação de cepas de P. falciparum multirresistentes (Plucinski et al., 2019). Angola registou, entre janeiro e maio de 2021, 3.799.458 casos de malária e 5.573 óbitos, representando um acréscimo de casos, mas uma redução de mortes face ao período homólogo. Os casos reportados este ano, com uma taxa de letalidade de 0,1%, significam mais 322.717 casos e menos 102 óbitos relativamente aos primeiros cinco meses de 2020 (WHO, 2020). Objetivos: analisar o perfil da malária em crianças atendidas no Hospital Pediátrico do Lobito. Material e Métodos: Trata-se de uma pesquisa retrospetiva coma a bordagem quantitativa, cuja amostra foi de n=1169 resultados obtidos dos livros estatísticos do Hospital pediátrico do Lobito. Resultados: Durante o período de 2019 a 2020 o Hospital pediátrico do Município do Lobito registou 1169 pacientes encaminhados ao laboratório de análises clínicas para o diagnóstico da malária, dos quais, 73,8% (n=863) foram considerados negativos, 21,6% (n=252) correspondeu a baixa parasitemia e 4,6% (n=54) positivo com alta parasitemia. Onde, 48,8% (n=566) representaram o sexo masculino e 51,6% (n=603) o sexo feminino Verificou-se também que, a idade dos pacientes estava situada entre 1 a 15 anos de idade, onde a maior concentração da idade dos pacientes estava situada entre os 4 a 8 anos de idade. Conclusões: verificou-se o predomínio de casos positivos com baixa parasitemia em relação a alta parasitemia para os anos de 2019 e 2020. A espécie predominante foi o Plasmodium falciparum. Os casos de malária mantiveram-se estáveis em quase todos os meses do ano de 2019, porém, no ano de 2020 houve um aumento nos meses de setembro a dezembro. Assim a prevalência para o ano de 2019 no Hospital pediátrico foi de 20,6% e para o ano de 2020 a prevalência foi de 31,9% na unidade de saúde já mencionada.

El objetivo de este estudio es determinar la percepción que tienen los recién graduados de la Licenciatura en Medicina y Cirugía, sobre su formación y perfil de egreso. Se utilizó un cuestionario estructurado, basado en el perfil de egreso de competencias genéricas, que contiene 52 preguntas, de las cuales 25 están relacionadas con habilidades y destrezas, 17 relacionadas con valores y actitudes, 5 referidas a competencias globales y 5 en formación y preparación académica. La población fue de 55 profesionales egresados a finales del 2018, con una tasa de respuesta del 100%. Los resultados señalan que los mayores índices de satisfacción se tienen en el campo de competencia globales y valores y actitudes, y los valores menores están relacionados con desarrollo de las destrezas motoras finas, alta capacidad de abstracción, creatividad y destrezas para el manejo de equipos e instrumental. Estos resultados señalan que se deben realizar más estudios para detectar las causas de los mismos y definir estrategias de solución.

Este artigo possui o objetivo de investigar os saberes pedagógicos do ensino superior de Ciências Contábeis na Universidade Federal do Pará. Dentre as possibilidades de abordagem desta temática, destacam-se a organização do currículo dos cursos de bacharelado em Ciências Contábeis, o perfil do educador para atuar na docência do Ensino Superior, as dificuldades que os docentes dos cursos de bacharelado enfrentam nas práticas de sala de aula e os saberes pedagógicos necessários para a atuação na docência superior. A população deste estudo foi constituída por seis professores, dos vinte, que atuam no curso de Ciências Contábeis na Universidade Federal do Pará, os quais responderam catorze perguntas coletadas por meio de entrevista. Os dados revelaram que o curso de Ciências Contábeis não capacita o acadêmico a lecionar, sendo a ausência de noções pedagógicas a maior preocupação dos entrevistados mediante ao cenário atual da docência superior. Concluiu-se que para o avanço do processo de ensino-aprendizagem do curso estudado, é necessário o desenvolvimento do desenho curricular no que se refere a disciplinas pedagógicas.

The factorial structure, the psychometric properties and the norms of interpretation and correction of the profile, and the typology of the adaptation to Spanish of the Collective Efficacy Questionnaire for Sport (CEQS) by Martínez, Guillén & Feltz (2011) are examined, in a sample of Colombian athletes, because in their previous validations no strategies were applied to minimize the bias from factorial indeterminacy, confirmatory and by capitalization on the chance. Contrary to the CEQS five-factors structure originally postulated by Martínez et al. (2011), findings in this study show a two-factor structure. Convergent validity shows that the two factors predict the quality of the players' relationship. Finally, no differences were found in the scores of the two CEQS factors associated with sociodemographic or socio-sports variables. Recommendations are presented on the use and interpretation of this instrument by experts in sport psychology, coaches, and sports administrators, and the contribution of the implementation of the CEQS to the improvement of effectiveness in team sports.

The relationship between coping responses and test anxiety was addressed by different investigations. However, no studies have been found about coping profiles and their relationship to test anxiety. The objective of this research was to study the coping profiles of 100 psychology students and their relationship with test anxiety. A solution of three well differentiated clusters was found regarding the mean scores of coping responses. It was found that the participants belonging to the cluster with the lowest scores in all the coping responses experienced a lower level of concern, emotionality and global test anxiety. The implications of these results are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The consumption of raw milk, without previous heat treatment, is a constant reality in many regions of Brazil, where many consumers consume this product in natura because they believe that fresh products are healthier. The city of Serrinha, BA, is not far from this reality, as the informal consumption of milk still occurs and there is no inspection in this trade, making this practice a risk to the health of the population. Given this reality, the present study aimed to analyze the profile of consumers of this product in the city of Serrinha, BA. For the development of this work, a survey was carried out between November 2019 and February 2020, with milk consumers, in the neighborhoods Estação, Cidade Nova, Vista Alegre, and Urbis, totaling 313 respondents. According to the results, raw milk is consumed by 53% of the population and the main reason for its consumption is to have a better taste. The main dairy product consumed by respondents was dulce de leche. A high percentage of raw milk consumers (94%) had the habit of boiling the milk. The number of interviewees who are unaware of any disease that raw milk can cause is high, and people need to be guided about the reduced quality of raw milk and combat its commercialization.

A Síndrome de Munchausen por Procuração é uma tipologia de abuso infantil, de natureza rara e invulgar, que se revela de extremo perigo para a criança. É também designada como um transtorno mental, sendo por isso o/a perpetrador/a que recebe o diagnóstico. A figura perpetradora é definida como narcisista, histérica e manipuladora, exibindo mentira patológica, o que se coaduna com outros transtornos de personalidade. Embora no seu íntimo esta seja a sua realidade, o seu comportamento é revelador de demasiado cuidado e proteção para com a criança, na presença de outros. O seu diagnóstico é de difícil consecução em virtude das características inerentes ao transtorno, da caracterização do perfil do/a perpetrador/a, mas também devido à falta de perceção pelo profissional de saúde. Este trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar a figura perpetradora e a sua conduta. Como metodologia procede-se de umarevisão narrativa daliteraturaeanálise de alguns estudos decaso quesão reveladores do comportamento preditor. Projeta-se que a definição clara, objetiva e criteriosa desperte a curiosidade e o interesse de vários profissionais de forma a impulsionar a investigação, pois a literatura não é unânime quanto aos constructos que regem esta condição patológica. Por último, espera-se contribuir para que os profissionais de saúde desenvolvam competências para diagnosticar atempadamente este comportamento e se mantenham alerta perante comportamentos de amistosa manipulação do/a perpetrador/a, sem danos para a criança vítima.

Se examina la estructura factorial, las propiedades psicométricas y las normas de interpretación y corrección del perfil y la tipología de la adaptación al español del Cuestionario de Eficacia Colectiva para el Deporte (CEQS) de Martínez, Guillén y Feltz (2011), en una muestra de deportistas colombianos, debido a que en sus validaciones previas no se aplicaron estrategias para minimizar el sesgo de indeterminación factorial, confirmatorio y de capitalización del azar. Se encontró una estructura de 2 factores, diferente a la de 5 que originalmente postularon Martínez y col. (2011). La validez convergente muestra que los dos factores predicen la calidad de la relación de los jugadores. Finalmente, no se encontraron diferencias en los puntajes de los dos factores del CEQS asociados a variables sociodemográficas ni sociodeportivas. Se presentan recomendaciones sobre la utilización e interpretación de este instrumento por parte de los expertos en psicología del deporte, entrenadores y administradores deportivos y la contribución de la implementación del CEQS a la mejora de la eficacia en deportes de equipo.

El objetivo del estudio realizado en el año 2019, fue determinar si el perfil profesional del contador público colegiado influye en la detección de los actos de corrupción en la región Moquegua. Al considerar que, hoy en día, la región Moquegua es una de las regiones con más casos de corrupción a nivel nacional. Al respecto, el Estado y las empresas privadas, han adoptado medidas, sin embargo, no consideran al profesional en Contabilidad para contrarrestar la corrupción, teniendo conocimiento que el Contador se desenvuelve en los escenarios donde se genera en su mayoría los actos de corrupción. A fin de lograr el objetivo planteado, el estudio se situó como una investigación básica de nivel descriptivo y explicativo, no experimental y transversal, utilizando el modelo de regresión logística Logit, donde la variable dependiente es dicotómica y las variables independientes se encuentran en una escala de intervalo. Como resultado, se determinó que el perfil profesional del contador público colegiado, que posee experiencia profesional de seis a diez años, con especialización de Contador General, especialista en Finanzas, Tributaria, Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera, Costos, Presupuestos, Integrador Contable y Auditor, con capacitación constante de 501 a más horas en los últimos cinco años y que se encuentra en el rango de edad de 31 a 45 años, influye significativamente en la detección de actos de corrupción en la región Moquegua.

This article aims to examine the scientific production on Ethnic-Racial Relations Education in High School and Elementary School, through articles published between 2015 and 2020, rated between A1 and B4. Specifically, it intends to identify the agents who produce them, and with whom they produce them. For that, we resorted to formulations about the Scientific Field, Representations, Ethnic-Racial Relations Education, High School, Elementary School with Bourdieu (2004; 2012); Chartier (1988); Silva (2014); Kuenzer (2010) and Rocha (2020), respectively. Regarding the treatment of empiricism, we resorted to Content Analysis and State of the Art in Bardin (2016) and André (2009). We infer that the largest volume of productions is with the researchers. The Southeast region concentrates, mostly, productions about the final years of Elementary School, and the Northeast, about High School. The interlocution between the productions about High School reaches an intra-institutional, national and, with some international participation, diversity. In reference to Elementary School, there is still a dialogue to be expanded in relation to such diversity. These dialogues contribute to the visibility of the theme in the field of ERRE and Basic Education, which has been produced by teachers of Basic Education and Higher Education.

This paper explores the use of mental maps as a diagnostic tool to assess university students’ geographical knowledge of the Balearic Islands, by examining aspects that have been largely overlooked in this field of research, including certain formal characteristics of sketch maps. More specifically, it analyses whether required components (each island) and their correct location within the background context (the Balearic archipelago) are present, in addition to salient landmarks on the islands’ coastlines. The quantitative procedures (a weights matrix of relative locations and a principal component analysis supporting cluster analysis) enabled the analysed maps to be classified and correlated. Failure to include one of the islands, inexact location and incorrectly traced outlines were the main indicators of students’ lack of familiarity with the archipelago. In turn, the work highlights the correlation between formal aspects of mental maps and the level of geography knowledge. This finding underlines how useful sketch maps are as a tool to study geography knowledge, which is at odds with theories that question them without supporting empirical verification. Although drawing skills might slightly influence the results, this has no bearing on missing islands, headlands, bays and other features attributable to students’ knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El tema de los perpetradores recibió hasta hace poco escasa atención por parte de los investigadores. En los últimos años, no obstante, ha adquirido relevancia tanto a nivel internacional como regional. Chile es una excepción dentro del nuevo contexto, pues son pocos los trabajos abocados a la temática. El caso de los torturadores en particular ha estado casi ausente en lo estudios sobre la dictadura. El presente texto busca adentrase en este terreno inexplorado con la intención de confeccionar una propuesta inicial de perfiles de los torturadores. Se proponen cinco grandes grupos de torturadores: los creyentes, los mercenarios, los burócratas, los sufrientes y los indiferentes. En el contexto de la descripción de cada uno de ellos se reconocen además otros once perfiles específicos: fanáticos, conversos, profitadores, oportunistas, obedientes, rutinarios, profesionales, conformistas, colaboradores, cínicos e imprudentes.

The primary objective of this research study is to assess retention of antioxidant metabolites, antioxidant activity, and cup profile of cold coffee drinks prepared using five different methods: Toddy, Cold Tower, Mizudashi, Cold Brew, and Fretta. UV-Visible spectrophotometry and high efficiency liquid chromatography are applied to quantify antioxidants and antioxidant activity. The results show that the preparation method that registered the highest antioxidant retention is Cold Tower, followed by the Toddy and Cold Brew preparations. The highest content of hydroxycinnamic acids is obtained with Mizudashi, Cold Brew, and Toddy. Antioxidant capacity is proportional to antioxidant compound retention. The preparation methods with the highest global impression are Toddy and Mizudashi. The most predominant hydroxycinnamic acid is chlorogenic acid. In conclusion, the Cold Tower, Toddy, and Cold Brew coffee preparation methods are recommended for their positive acceptance, retention, and antioxidant expression, resulting in a well-balanced refreshing drink with sensory quality and functionality.

Las alteraciones y trastornos psicomotrices en la infancia pueden repercutir en el desarrollo de habilidades motoras complejas e influir en los aprendizajes escolares. El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar el perfil psicomotor en población infantil de planteles educativos de Colombia. Se utilizó un diseño transversal, descriptivo; se aplicó la batería psicomotora de Da Fonseca a 131 escolares (56.5 % varones; 43.5 % niñas) de 4-9 años, en educación preescolar y primaria. Los resultados indican que el 76.3 % tiene perfil normal, pero en la praxia fina predominó la dispraxia. Las niñas mostraron mejores valores que los niños en la mayoría de los factores. En conclusión, la mayoría de los infantes presenta un perfil eupráxico, hallándose mejores resultados en las niñas. Esto sugiere la implementación de programas escolares individualizados, previniendo posibles alteraciones.

Este artigo descreve aulas de “audição” de duas escolas de teatro musical – uma em São Paulo e outra em Nova York. O texto pretende, de um lado, adensar a discussão sobre um ambiente pedagógico ainda pouco explorado pela literatura da antropologia da educação: as escolas de teatro. E, de outro, analisar as práticas de ensino adotadas. Para isso, persigo os usos da categoria “perfil” nas salas de aula e nas falas de docentes e de estudantes. Tal categoria, fundamental no vocabulário desses ambientes, confere acesso para discutir sistemas de classificação que hierarquizam corpos e atualizam normativas de gênero, sexualidade e raça no cotidiano pedagógico. Com base em pesquisa de campo e em entrevistas, procurei responder as seguintes perguntas: como se aprende o “perfil”? Como essa convenção produz diferenças e desigualdades nos corpos de estudantes?

Este proyecto comprende el estudio de los visitantes nacionales y extranjeros de la zona alta del Parque Nacional Cotacachi Cayapas (PNCC) correspondiente a la Provincia de Imbabura, en Ecuador, y tiene como principal objetivo caracterizar su perfil. En esta investigación se utilizó el método descriptivo y exploratorio. Se revisó en fuentes secundarias la literatura científica existente sobre motivaciones de viaje. La investigación de campo, a través de la observación directa, permitió una mejor apreciación visual del lugar y constatar determinados hechos (afluencia de turistas, género, conservación de la laguna, entre otros). Se aplicó una encuesta (2015), con preguntas de tipo general y relacionadas con el perfil demográfico, socio-económico, psicográfico y otros aspectos, a 383 turistas nacionales y extranjeros que visitaron el parque, especialmente la Laguna de Cuicocha.
