An fMRI Study of Emotional engagement in decicion-making

It has been suggested that decision making depends on sensitive feelings associated with cognitive processing rather than cognitive processing alone. From human lesions, we know the medial anterior inferior-ventral prefrontal cortex processes the sensitivity associated with cognitive processing, it being essentially responsible for decision making. In this fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Image) study 15 subjects were analyzed using moral dilemmas as probes to investigate the neural basis for painful-emotional sensitivity associated with decision making. We found that a network comprising the posterior and anterior cingulate and the medial anterior prefrontal cortex was significantly and specifically activated by painful moral dilemmas, but not by non-painful dilemmas. These findings provide new evidence that the cingulate and medial anterior prefrontal are involved in processing painful emotional sensibility, in particular, when decision making takes place. We speculate that decision making has a cognitive component processed by cognitive brain areas and a sensitivity component processed by emotional brain areas. The structures activated suggest that decision making depends on painful emotional feeling processing rather than cognitive processing when painful feeling processing happens

Case Study Envisioning and Engagement

This is a presentation that introduces the envisioning (set up) stage of a project or case study. it sets envisioning in a framework of software engineering and agile methodologies. The presentation also covers techniques for engaging with stakeholders in the domain of the project: building a co-designing team; information gathering; and the ethics of engagement. There is a short section on sprint planning and managing the project backlog (agile using a burndown chart.

Síndrome Burnout y Engagement, desde el Modelo Demandas-Recursos, en auxiliares de enfermería del área de Urgencias, del Hospital Universitario Méderi-Barrios Unidos

Esta investigación pretende ofrecer un marco conceptual y analizar la relación entre el síndrome de burnout y el engagement desde el modelo de demandas y recursos de Demerouti, Bakker, Janssen, & Schaufeli (2001) en un grupo de enfermeras de urgencias del hospital universitario Méderi, sede Barrios Unidos (Bogotá). Para esto se realizará un estudio descriptivo correlacional donde se aplicarán: la versión argentina de Cosentino y Castro (2008) Escala de Deseabilidad Social de Crowne y Marlowe diseñada en 1960 (EDSCM), adaptada para medir la necesidad de los sujetos de obtener aprobación respondiendo de un modo culturalmente aceptable y apropiado; lo cual podría alterar los resultados de las demás pruebas. El Maslach Burnout Inventory – Human Services Survey (MBI- HSS) para medir el síndrome de burnout, el L’Utrecht Work Engagement Scala para medir el engagement y tomando en cuenta el caso Colombiano, se aplicará el cuestionario de condiciones intralaborales forma B, establecido por el Ministerio de la protección social para medir las demandas y recursos laborales. Para el análisis de resultados se utilizaron estadísticos descriptivos y correlaciónales entre las variables. Se aplico SPSS para el análisis de descriptivos y correlación de Spearman entre las diferentes variables.. El análisis teórico se fundamento en el modelo Demandas - recursos de Demelouti, Bakker, Nachreiner y Shaufeli (2001).

On lions, impala, and bigraphs: modelling interactions in Ubiquitous Computing

As ubiquitous systems have moved out of the lab and into the world the need to think more systematically about how there are realised has grown. This talk will present intradisciplinary work I have been engaged in with other computing colleagues on how we might develop more formal models and understanding of ubiquitous computing systems. The formal modelling of computing systems has proved valuable in areas as diverse as reliability, security and robustness. However, the emergence of ubiquitous computing raises new challenges for formal modelling due to their contextual nature and dependence on unreliable sensing systems. In this work we undertook an exploration of modelling an example ubiquitous system called the Savannah game using the approach of bigraphical rewriting systems. This required an unusual intra-disciplinary dialogue between formal computing and human- computer interaction researchers to model systematically four perspectives on Savannah: computational, physical, human and technical. Each perspective in turn drew upon a range of different modelling traditions. For example, the human perspective built upon previous work on proxemics, which uses physical distance as a means to understand interaction. In this talk I hope to show how our model explains observed inconsistencies in Savannah and ex- tend it to resolve these. I will then reflect on the need for intradisciplinary work of this form and the importance of the bigraph diagrammatic form to support this form of engagement.
