Over the last years, understanding the implications of prospective thinking toward the future has become of increasing interest. This study aims to delve into the relation between dispositional optimism, one of the most relevant prospective constructs, and life satisfaction. Additionally, we also seek to prove the mediating effect of different cognitive and affective variables associated with both hedonic and eudaimonic well-being on this relationship. A first study is conducted with 275 secondary students to assess the relationship between optimism and life satisfaction through self-control and grit (14.82, SD = 1.07), which indicates a mediating effect of grit but not of self-control. A second study is carried out with 1,356 university students (21.5, SD = 2.35) to demonstrate the mediating effect of positive affect on dispositional optimism and life satisfaction. Results show a strong...

Life aspirations are considered one of the most relevant components for human beings to give meaning and purpose to their existence. Different studies emphasized the relevance of intrinsic life aspirations to promote life satisfaction. However, few studies analyze the specific role of the intrinsic aspirations that have been recently categorized as self-transcendent. Self-transcendent aspirations are focused on helping others and improving society and, consequently, are considered aspirations whose purpose transcends oneself. In this sense, the objective of this study is to observe how self- transcendent aspirations are related to life satisfaction through dispositional gratitude. Additionally, we aim to study the moderating role of cognitive and affective empathy. There were 1,356 students (mean age = 21.5, standard deviation = 2.35 years) who took part in a scholarship program funded b...

Studies that distinguish the role of dispositional and situational moral emotions in bullying situations remain limited in the international literature. This work, therefore, aims to analyze the role of dispositional and situational moral emotions in bullying and prosocial behavior in adolescents. Two studies were conducted: a cross-sectional study including 644 adolescents aged 14–18 years (M = 15.6, DT = 1.4) and a repeated measures design including 235 adolescents aged 10–15 years (M = 12.5, DT = 0.9). The objectives of Study 1 were 1) to validate two scales for the situational moral emotions elicited in bullying situations (elevation and moral disgust) and 2) to examine the relationships between dispositional and situational moral emotions and prosocial behavior toward victims and bullying behavior. The results show adequate psychometric properties for both elevat...

Recently, studies linking the emotion of dispositional gratitude to cyberbullying have attracted attention. However, this is still a seminal research area that requires further scientific studies. Through longitudinal data, this study aims to analyze the mitigating effect of gratitude on cybervictimization and two indicators of adolescent subjective well-being, namely school and life satisfaction. To this end, 221 adolescents attending private schools in Peru (age: mean (M) = 12.09; standard deviation (SD) = 0.89) were selected to respond to a self-administered questionnaire in two waves that were six months apart. Descriptive data show that 27% of cybervictims also suffer other types of traditional bullying. The overlaps between forms of bullying contribute to higher probabilities of experiencing low school and life satisfaction compared to non-victims after six months. The results of t...

La incorporación de las Tecnologías de Información y Comunicaciones (TI) en las organizaciones públicas y privadas permite dar soporte a los procesos, mejorar su desempeño y brindar servicios de calidad. Sin embargo, son pocas las organizaciones que logran todos estos beneficios. A pesar de la existencia de buenas prácticas y modelos de Gobierno TI (GTI), lograr el alineamiento estratégico del negocio con las TI es un reto que enfrentan los CIO (Chief Information Officer). En este artículo se presenta una revisión sistemática de la literatura para determinar los factores críticos que influyen en el alineamiento estratégico entre el negocio y las TI. Un total de 11 artículos fueron seleccionados. Los resultados muestran que la estructura organizacional de TI, entendimiento de metas, objetivos, funciones y operaciones de TI por parte de los gerentes del negocio y el conocimien...

In a context characterized by structural transformations and the credibility crisis of journalism, media accountability is of outmost importance. Focusing on the Spanish context, this article examines journalists’ and citizens’ perceptions of in-house accountability instruments. To do so, an online survey was administered to Spanish journalists, six citizen focus groups were established and 19 in-depth interviews were conducted with experts and representatives from professional associations. The results reveal that journalists’ evaluation of media accountability instruments is modest. From the citizens’ perspective, the lack of visibility and relative distrust toward these instruments are highlighted. With the goal of stimulating the debate and decision-making, an open access platform has been built to evaluate if media organizations have developed these fundamental instruments t...

Virus-like particles have been synthetized from a self-assembling L1 protein, using celular and bacterial expresion systems. Human papillomavirus (HPV) virus-like particle prophylactic vaccines are effective in preventing infection and lesions caused by the targeted HPV type. Clinical trials with 3 vaccine prototypes (HPV16, other with HPV 16/18 and other with 6/11/16/18) have demonstrated their safety, immunogenicity and efficacy to prevent CIN 2/3, immediate precursors of invasive cervical carcinoma. Vaccination programs with adequate coverage would have the potential to substantially reduce morbidity and mortality related to cervical cancer. This paper presents data from clinical trials of the above mentioned vaccines.

Como punto de partida, la Vita Christi (Bertonio, 1612e) [VXti ] tiene, en la concepción de Ludovico Bertonio [B], mucha complementariedad con los otros libros publicados en Juli, en 1612, en la imprenta de Francisco del Canto trasladada temporalmente allí para este fin. Además de su obvia finalidad evangelizadora, la VXti 1 es un importante corpus tanto para el Vocabulario (1612d) como para la Silva de Phrases (1612b) que en alguna manera lo complementa, e incluso para las Artes (1603, 1612a). Como ya he explicado en otros textos (Albó & Layme, 1984; Albó, 2011-2012), en términos lingüísticos la VXti es, en mi opinión, el más logrado de los textos aimaras de B, por su mayor margen de libertad y flexibilidad para expresarse. En él aparece más que en otros la coautoría permanente de su principal colaborador aymara, don Martín de Santa Cruz, hanansaya del ayllu Cara; por ...

El artículo examina la controversia sobre la autoría de La Nueva Crónica y buen gobierno, cuestionando si fue escrita por Felipe Guaman Poma o por el jesuita Blas Valera. Analiza la evidencia documental y las implicaciones históricas, resaltando la complejidad del debate y la relevancia de khipus y registros coloniales para la interpretación del texto.

No description

This work is a sociological and anthropological analysis of one of the main celebrations of the type of pilgrimage within the valleys of Cochabamba. Descriptions and analyzes of festivals and ritual celebrations abound in Andean literature. But in the vast majority of cases they are local or regional festivals of a patronal type, descriptions of pilgrimages are less frequent, although some are not lacking, such as that of Ramírez (1969) on the novena of Qoyllur Rit'i near from Cuzco. There are parts of the Andes where pilgrimages are almost non-existent, such as among the Aymara (Albó, in press).
