Transcultural properties of the Composite Scale of Morningness: The relevance of the "morning affect" factor

Morningness scales have been translated into several languages, but it lack of normative data and methodological differences make cross-cultural comparisons difficult. This study examines the psychometric properties and factor structure of the Composite Scale of Morningness (CSM) in samples from five countries: France (n = 627), Italy (n, = 702), Spain (n = 391), Thailand (n. = 503), and Australia (17 = 654). Strong national differences are identified. A quadratic relationship between age and CSM total score was apparent in the Australian data with a downward trend after age 35 yrs. There was no age effect in air), sample in the range from 18 to 29 yrs. Factor analysis identified a three-factor solution in all groups for both men and women. Tucker's congruence coefficients indicate that: (1) this solution is highly congruent between sexes in each culture, and (2) a morning affect factor is highly congruent between cultures. These results indicate there are national differences in factorial structure and that cut-off scores used to categorize participants as morning- and evening-types should be established for different cultural and age groups.

Transcultural experiences: A literature bridge to English for ESOL students from Cuba

This qualitative study is concerned with exploring the transcultural experiences of ESOL students and connecting their lived experiences to literature in the classroom. The purpose of this study was to describe and explain the transcultural perspectives of six high school and community college students: four Cuban born students and two American born/raised students of Cuban-American culture. The participants were from Barbara Goleman Senior High School and Miami-Dade Community College. The six phenomenological portraits were explored in the form of lived experience pieces, representing the students' transcultural experiences. The data was collected in the form of student interviews, researcher's journal, and document reviews. The following exploratory questions guided this study: (1) From the perspective of four Cuban-born, non-native English-speaking students (NNS), what are the essential structures of their transcultural identities? (2) What are the underlying themes that account for the Cuban NNS students' transcultural experiences? (3) What are the universal transcultural structures among the Cuban NNS students' transcultural experiences and the Cuban-American, native English/Spanish speaking (NESS) students' experiences? (4) What are the possible structural meanings of the Cuban NNS students' interests in relation to their transcultural experiences? (5) What are some connections between the structural themes inherent in the Cuban NNS students' transcultural experiences and teaching literature in ESOL? ^ A phenomenological approach was used to investigate the participants' transcultural experiences, focused on the students' lived experiences. The study consisted of three interview sessions for each of the six participants. The analysis of the data was conducted following the principles of qualitative research, which included participant interviews, thematic analysis, researcher's journal, document reviews, and triangulation. The researcher created portraits representing students' transcultural experiences. Subsequently, the participants' transcultural experiences were used to respond to the exploratory questions, including comparing and contrasting themes and drawing connections among teaching literature in the ESOL classroom. ^ The results of this study show some relevant specific statements and themes that emerged from the students' transcultural data. The results serve as a better understanding of these students' transcultural experiences and the potentiality of connecting their perspectives to literature in the classroom. In addition, this study shows the need for a better understanding of the connection between transcultural experiences and literature in ESOL. ^

Nonlinear Flow in Karst Formations

The variation of effective hydraulic conductivity as a function of specific discharge in several 0.2-m and 0.3-m cubes of Key Largo Limestone was investigated. The experimental results closely match the Forchheimer equation. Defining the pore-size length scale in terms of Forchheimer parameters, it is demonstrated that significant deviations from Darcian flow will occur when the Reynolds number exceeds 0.11. A particular threshold model previously proposed for use in karstic formations does not show strong agreement with the data near the onset of nonlinear flow.

Cuestionario de calidad de vida ULL-27: un instrumento específico para pacientes con linfedema de miembro superior tras cáncer de mama. Adaptación transcultural y validación de su versión española

En nuestro medio, el linfedema más frecuente es el que aparece en el miembro superior tras los tratamientos del cáncer de mama. Existe un interés creciente acerca de su impacto sobre la Calidad de Vida, entendida ésta como el completo estado de bienestar físico, mental y social de la persona. Para poder medir la CV en esta población, se precisan herramientas específicas, dado que los cuestionarios genéricos no recogen las particularidades de esta enfermedad. El cuestionario ULL-27 (Upper limb lymphedema) fue la primera escala específica desarrollada para valorar la calidad de vida de mujeres con linfedema de miembro superior tras cáncer de mama1. Dada la necesidad de disponer de este tipo de instrumentos en nuestro país, y habiendo mostrado el cuestionario francés ULL-27 buenas propiedades psicométricas en su estudio de validación, se planteó como objetivo su traducción al español y adaptación transcultural a nuestro medio, procediendo a continuación a su validación en una muestra de mujeres con linfedema de miembro superior tras cáncer de mama...

El papel de la coacción informal en el tratamiento ambulatorio: un estudio transcultural con profesionales de la salud mental

Entendemos por coerción como la presión ejercida sobre alguien para forzar su voluntad o su conducta. El concepto de coerción transciende la Salud Mental y afecta a distintas disciplinas como la filosofía, ética, derecho o política. Dentro de las medidas coercitivas que se usan en el campo de la Salud Mental distinguimos entre aquellas que se ejercen dentro de un marco normativo, a las que nos referimos como medidas formales de coerción (hospitalización involuntaria, aislamiento, contención mecánica y química) y otras, objeto de este estudio, denominadas informales o encubiertas, que son aquellas estrategias coercitivas utilizadas como forma de presión sobre el paciente, principalmente ambulatorio, y que se escapan a cualquier normativa o jurisprudencia. Szmukler y Appelbaum definen cuatro niveles diferentes de coerción informal: persuasión, influencia interpersonal, inducción y amenaza. Aunque existe bastante investigación sobre coerción formal en los últimos treinta años, no es así en el caso de la coerción informal, si bien se ha intensificado en la última década. Es más, apenas existen estudios que recojan las opiniones de los profesionales sobre la misma y los que existen se concentran países desarrollados, ignorando aspectos socioculturales, de tradición psiquiátrica y organización asistencial que pueden influir en el uso de este tipo de estrategias...
