Launched by representatives from the Union démocratique du centre (UDC) with the aim of circumventing political and judicial decisions made at both local and national levels, the 2009 federal popular initiative calling for a ban on the construction of minarets rekindled the stigmatisation of Muslims living in Switzerland. Within the prevalent institutional configuration it moreover revived controversies surrounding issues such as direct democracy versus fundamental rights, or "the will of the people" versus "the power of the judges", whether national or international. "Judicialisation" is a polysemous concept. It is not understood here as the transfer to the courts of matters of political significance - in this instance the public regulation of religion - but as a process of juridification (or juridicalisation) in which court rulings were constantly anticipated in the political debate provoked by the popular initiative.

The visual angle that is projected by an object (e.g. a ball) on the retina depends on the object's size and distance. Without further information, however, the visual angle is ambiguous with respect to size and distance, because equal visual angles can be obtained from a big ball at a longer distance and a smaller one at a correspondingly shorter distance. Failure to recover the true 3D structure of the object (e.g. a ball's physical size) causing the ambiguous retinal image can lead to a timing error when catching the ball. Two opposing views are currently prevailing on how people resolve this ambiguity when estimating time to contact. One explanation challenges any inference about what causes the retinal image (i.e. the necessity to recover this 3D structure), and instead favors a direct analysis of optic flow. In contrast, the second view suggests that action timing could be rather based on obtaining an estimate of the 3D structure of the scene. With the latter, systematic errors will be predicted if our inference of the 3D structure fails to reveal the underlying cause of the retinal image. Here we show that hand closure in catching virtual balls is triggered by visual angle, using an assumption of a constant ball size. As a consequence of this assumption, hand closure starts when the ball is at similar distance across trials. From that distance on, the remaining arrival time, therefore, depends on ball's speed. In order to time the catch successfully, closing time was coupled with ball's speed during the motor phase. This strategy led to an increased precision in catching but at the cost of committing systematic errors.

We report an experiment where participants observed an attack on their virtual body as experienced in an immersive virtual reality (IVR) system. Participants sat by a table with their right hand resting upon it. In IVR, they saw a virtual table that was registered with the real one, and they had a virtual body that substituted their real body seen from a first person perspective. The virtual right hand was collocated with their real right hand. Event-related brain potentials were recorded in two conditions, one where the participant"s virtual hand was attacked with a knife and a control condition where the knife only struck the virtual table. Significantly greater P450 potentials were obtained in the attack condition confirming our expectations that participants had a strong illusion of the virtual hand being their own, which was also strongly supported by questionnaire responses. Higher levels of subjective virtual hand ownership correlated with larger P450 amplitudes. Mu-rhythm event-related desynchronization in the motor cortex and readiness potential (C3-C4) negativity were clearly observed when the virtual hand was threatened as would be expected, if the real hand was threatened and the participant tried to avoid harm. Our results support the idea that event-related potentials may provide a promising non-subjective measure of virtual embodiment. They also support previous experiments on pain observation and are placed into context of similar experiments and studies of body perception and body ownership within cognitive neuroscience.

[spa]En las historias generales de la tolerancia religiosa no figura Helisaeus Röslin. Sin embargo Carlos Gilly ha mostrado en diferentes trabajos que el médico suabo-alsaciano sostuvo a lo largo de su obra de modo incansable la necesidad de la libertad religiosa y de conciencia como un postulado religioso y como un factor de progreso económico y paz social. El presente trabajo pretende analizar en profundidad la teorización rösliniana de la libertad de religión poniéndola en relación con su concepción de la historia, con su obra de cronología y con su interpretación de las novedades celestes contemporáneas, en particular la nova de 1604 y el descubrimiento galileano de los planetas mediceos en 1610, tal como se refleja en dos de las últimas obras de Röslin: Mitternächtige Schiffarth (1611) y la Tabella des Welt Spiegels (1612).

Se entrenó a unas ratas a encontrar una plataforma invisible definida por una configuración de dos objetos en la mitad de los ensayos y por una segunda configuración de dos objetos en la otra mitad. Los objetos estaban espaciados alrededor del borde de la piscina. Las dos configuraciones se presentaron con la misma frecuencia cada día, entremezcladas semi-al azar. En el Experimento 1, las configuraciones de las ratas fueron A y B (configuración 1), y B y C (configuración 2). B era un objeto común a ambas configuraciones. Al final de esta fase los animales recibieron ensayos de prueba en los que se colocaba a una rata en la piscina sin la plataforma y se registraba el tiempo que pasaba en el cuadrante de la plataforma. Los animales tuvieron ensayos de prueba con las configuraciones del entrenamiento, con los objetos por separado, y con una nueva configuración, A y C (una prueba de integración). Tanto ante las configuraciones del entrenamiento como en presencia de B, las ratas pasaron una cantidad de tiempo sustancial buscando la plataforma en el cuadrante de la plataforma; no se obtuvo ningún otro efecto en las otras pruebas. En el Experimento 2 se introdujeron varios cambios metodológicos y se replicaron los principales resultados del Experimento 1. Concluimos que tras un entrenamiento configuracional como el empleado, la navegación de las ratas hacia una plataforma invisible estuvo controlada por un aprendizaje elemental, por B.

El Parlament de Catalunya «ha aprobado la moción presentada por CiU sobre la ocultación o disimulación del rostro en el espacio público y las medidas que se deben adoptar en materia de seguridad pública» (18/7/2013). Esta iniciativa para impedir el uso del velo integral mediante nuevas normativas legales sobre seguridad ha reabierto la polémica entre prohibicionistas y no prohibicionistas.

The work presented here describes a part of the experience carried out during the last two academic years in a course called New Technologies Applied to Education within the Teacher Training Studies of the Faculty of Education Sciences and Psychology of the University of Girona. It is a project that involves students working on a proposal closely related to their future professional lives. In it they simulate their intervention in a school staff meeting at which the introduction of ICT into the curriculum is being discussed. This proposal is presented in a WebQuest format. Various individual and group tasks allow the students to acquire knowledge about educational programmes and resources available on the web and to discuss their possible teaching applications in the context of a specific school situation, leading to an analysis of the curricular implications associated with the educational use of the ICT from the teacher’s perspective. During the last two academic years assessments by both the students and the teaching staff have been gathered in order to redesign the proposal and calculate the time necessary for the development of each task following the ECTS system. This proposal, although formulated within the context of current degree programmes, implies a way of working guided by the plans of European convergence (ECTS). In the future it is hoped to establish an interdisciplinary proposal focusing on various subjects of the degree leading to the development of some of the capabilities established in our university’s degree courses in Early Childhood and Primary Teacher Training following the plans of European convergence (ECTS)

Davant el fet que existeix una àmplia bibliografia en la qual les lectores i els lectors interessats poden trobar informacions generals i específiques sobre l’ensenyament i l’aprenentatge d’estratègies, l’objectiu d’aquest article se centra a oferir algunes reflexions sobre el significat i el sentit que pot tenir, per a docents i aprenents, ensenyar i aprendre a aprendre a l’escolad’avui. S’hi planteja com l’escola, com a agent de canvi social, es veu influenciada per la ràpida transformació de la societat actual i pels canvis en la política educativa, i s’hi analitza quines implicacions té tot aquest procés en l’activitat conjunta que docents i aprenents porten a terme als centres i a les aules

ABSTRACT This paper is an analysis of the manner Nishida Kitarô (1870-1945), in the process of construction of his own philosophy of religion, enters into dialogue with Leibniz's thought concerning Pre-established Harmony. Although the philosophy of religion is an important theme and Nishida goes back to Leibniz at some points in his textual career, there are relatively few studies that touch on the relationship between these two thinkers. I study Nishida's approach under three headings. The first section concerns ten main aspects of the world of pre-established harmony. The second tries to show the manner in which such a world becomes a guide towards a philosophy of religion, placing the emphasis on three characteristically Christian aspects: a created, fallen, and Trinitarian world. The third section includes some elements such as the entrance into religion, metanoia, satori and a comparison between Christian agape and Buddhist maha-kruna. These are themes on which Nishida elaborates in his 1945 masterpiece, The Logic of Basho and a Religious Worldview.

Humans have used arguments for defending or refuting statements long before the creation of logic as a specialized discipline. This can be interpreted as the fact that an intuitive notion of "logical consequence" or a psychic disposition to articulate reasoning according to this pattern is present in common sense, and logic simply aims at describing and codifying the features of this spontaneous capacity of human reason. It is well known, however, that several arguments easily accepted by common sense are actually "logical fallacies", and this indicates that logic is not just a descriptive, but also a prescriptive or normative enterprise, in which the notion of logical consequence is defined in a precise way and then certain rules are established in order to maintain the discourse in keeping with this notion. Yet in the justification of the correctness and adequacy of these rules commonsense reasoning must necessarily be used, and in such a way its foundational role is recognized. Moreover, it remains also true that several branches and forms of logic have been elaborated precisely in order to reflect the structural features of correct argument used in different fields of human reasoning and yet insufficiently mirrored by the most familiar logical formalisms.
