Migración a software libre del SIG de la Diputación de A Coruña

En el año 2006, la Diputación de A Coruña junto con el Laboratorio de Bases de Datos de la Universidad de A Coruña emprendieron un proyecto para la migración a software libre de webEIEL, la aplicación de publicación en web y descarga de la información cartográfica y alfanumérica contenida en la base de datos territoriales de la Encuesta sobre Infraestructura y Equipamiento Local (EIEL) de la provincia de A Coruña. Un objetivo adicional en este proyecto era la construcción de un nodo de la infraestructura de datos espaciales de España (IDEE) que actuara como proveedor para la red de IDEs de los datos georreferenciados de la EIEL de A Coruña y de la red provincial de carreteras recogidos a escalas mayores que 1/10.000, con generalizaciones a escalas menores de estos mismos datos, y con servicios interoperables relacionados con los mismos. Este nodo incluye los siguientes servicios de acceso a datos: • Servidor de mapas (WMS) • Servidor de entidades (WFS) • Servicio de catálogo de metadatos, y • Servicio de nomenclátor. El objetivo de este artículo es describir el nodo ideAC de la Diputación de A Coruña tanto en términos de funcionalidad como en términos técnicos

El bienestar psicológico de los preadolescentes

Research on psychological well-being - as a component of quality of life - has paroduced notable developments during the last two decades. However, few instruments exist that are applicable to the study of psychological well-being among adolescents. This article presents the results of administering un instrument of this kind to a sample of 1590 Catalan adolescents between 12 and 14 years old. The instrument, Huebner's siss scale (Huebner, 1991a, 1994) had already been adapted to study a population of Spanish children (Alsinet, 1998). The results are compared to those of positive and negative affect scales administered to the same sample, and to those obtained by Huebner with a US sample. The results demonstrate good reliability, a consistent factor structure, a goodfunctioning of the scale in the Spanish population, and a pattern of answers consistent with the original results by Huebner

El Burnout percibido o sensación de estar quemado en profesionales sanitarios: prevalencia y factores asociados

Depending on the various models explaining the burnout syndrome, different questionnaires have been developed to asses this topic, the most widely-used is the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Moreover, in trying to asses this syndrome in a faster and more practical way, several authors have developed other instruments with fewer items. The present investigation aims: 1. Study the prevalence of burnout syndrome perceived using a simple measure of self-reported burnout, and to analyse its association with the scales of MBI. 2. Study demographic and work conditions associated with the perceived burnout. 3. Relate the burnout to personal and work evaluations. The sample consist of 6150 health professionals in Latin America (mainly from Argentina but with representation from Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Uruguay, Guatemala and Spain, among others. The mean age of the sample was 42.4 years, 52.7% were males. They were supplied with an online questionnaire through the health web page ”Intramed” in order to measure characteristics, perceptions and professional opinions. The MBI and a simple question to assess perceptions of burnout (Do you feel burnt out ?) was also included. The results indicated that 36.3% of the sample has the perception of “burnt out” or burnout . The perceived burnout is closely related to emotional exhaustion and is independent of depersonalisation. The burnout is associated with the perceived sense of personal and family deterioration due to working conditions, and the idea of abandoning the profession
