Thermospray flame furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (TS-FF-AAS) was used for the total determination of Cd, Pb and Zn in fresh water and seawater samples at µg L-1 levels, and in marine sediment samples at µg g-1 levels. Using a sample loop of 50 µL and a peristaltic pump the samples were transported into the metallic tube placed over an air/acetylene flame, through a ceramic capillary (o.d. = 3.2 mm) containing two parallel internal orifices (i.d = 0.5 mm). The detection limits determined for Cd, Pb and Zn using a synthetic water matrix (2.5% m/v NaCl, 0.5% m/v MgCl2 and 0.8% m/v CaCl2) were 0.32 µg L-1; 2.6 µg L-1 and 0.21 µg L-1 respectively. The methodology by TS-FF-AAS was validated by determination of Cd, Pb and Zn in certified reference materials of water and marine sediment, and the t-test for differences between means was applied. No statistically significant differences were established in fresh water and seawater (p>0.05), whereas differences became apparent in marine sediment (p<0.03).

Este artículo es una síntesis del proyecto realizado en INBio (Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad), Costa Rica, cuyo objetivo principal fue la mejora de la Interpretación Ambiental de INBioparque, un parque temático de biodiversidad dentro de la institución. INBioparque está situado en Santo Domingo de Heredia, provincia de Heredia, Costa Rica. Éste pretende hacer una pequeña representación de los principales ecosistemas que se encuentran en el país. El parque se divide en diferentes zonas: Bosque del Valle Central, Bosque Húmedo, Bosque Seco, Humedal y Finca. En esta última, la Finca (ecosistema basado en la biodiversidad domesticada) es dónde se ha centrado todo el proyecto, debido a que presentaba una mayor necesidad de mejora en su interpretación ambiental. La Interpretación ambiental traduce el lenguaje técnico de los profesionales a términos e ideas más entendedoras para todos los públicos. Pretende promover una nueva conciencia sobre el valor de la biodiversidad, lograr su conservación y mejorar la calidad de vida del ser humano. El proyecto propone la mejora de la interpretación ambiental a través de las fichas técnicas elaboradas de las diferentes especies vegetales de la Finca, así como la renovación o creación de rótulos explicativos. Se propone también un recorrido guiado y auto guiado para hacer más entendedora la visita, además de algunas actividades y talleres.

Traffic accidents are one of the causes of death for people between 1 and 45 years old. Many studies verify that the road accidents are related with the consumption of alcohol. This problem, is especially important in the young people and it is increased during dawns of the weekends. Some studies underline the lack of information and knowledge of many young people concerning law on alcohol consummation when driving and the effects of this drug on consumers. Another problem is the amount of mistaken beliefs on what to do neutralize the alcohol’s effect before drive. The objective of our study is to evaluate, in university students, the knowledge of the rules of driving behavior included in the circulation code and the personal beliefs about the effects of the alcohol in driving, and to find the frequency and the circumstances in which young people drive after alcohol consummation. The results suggest many actions that may be considered in the design of preventive campaigns that promotes safety road behavior in order to increase their effectivity

Aims: The aim of this paper is to know what means for Spanish university students “sexual relations”, from a sexually transmitted infections prevention point of view. Method: Participants were seven hundred and fifty university students from 18 to 25 years (67.7% women; 65.5% between 18 and 21 years old) selected by multistage proportional sampling. They were asked to give a maximum of three free definitions or examples of “sexual relations”. They could use the language they feel more comfortable. An example of (vaginal sex) was provided and three blank spaces for answering were marked. Results: 23.5% of participants repeated the example provided (vaginal sex). The other answers were categorized in the following topics: euphemisms (42,3%), sex with penetration (40,3%), divagations (11,2%), sex without penetration (11,1%), anal sex (10,5%), oral sex (5,6%), masturbation (2,4%) and having an orgasm (1,5%). Conclusions: Young people’s meaning of “having sex” has become more diversified in the last years. These results must be useful in order to design future preventive campaigns

A flow system coupled to a tungsten coil atomizer in an atomic absorption spectrometer (TCA-AAS) was developed for As(III) determination in waters, by extraction with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaDDTC) as complexing agent, and by sorption of the As(III)-DDTC complex in a micro-column filled with 5 mg C18 reversed phase (10 µL dry sorbent), followed by elution with ethanol. A complete pre-concentration/elution cycle took 208 s, with 30 s sample load time (1.7 mL) and 4 s elution time (71 µL). The interface and software for the synchronous control of two peristaltic pumps (RUN/ STOP), an autosampler arm, seven solenoid valves, one injection valve, the electrothermal atomizer and the spectrometer Read function were constructed. The system was characterized and validated by analytical recovery studies performed both in synthetic solutions and in natural waters. Using a 30 s pre-concentration period, the working curve was linear between 0.25 and 6.0 µg L-1 (r = 0.9976), the retention efficiency was 94±1% (6.0 µg L-1), and the pre-concentration coefficient was 28.9. The characteristic mass was 58 pg, the mean repeatability (expressed as the variation coefficient) was 3.4% (n=5), the detection limit was 0.058 µg L-1 (4.1 pg in 71 µL of eluate injected into the coil), and the mean analytical recovery in natural waters was 92.6 ± 9.5 % (n=15). The procedure is simple, economic, less prone to sample loss and contamination and the useful lifetime of the micro-column was between 200-300 pre-concentration cycles.

El asma es una enfermedad inflamatoria crónica de elevada prevalencia a nivel mundial, siendo el colectivo más afectado el formado por niños y adolescentes. Su sintomatología se caracteriza por la aparición de tos, disnea, sibilancias, sensación de opresión en el pecho y broncoconstricción. Tradicionalmente se había pensado que el deporte y el ejercicio físico estaban contraindicados en pacientes asmáticos. Por otro lado, el paciente asmático suele presentar niveles de condición física y práctica deportiva menores que los sujetos sanos. Actualmente se ha propuesto la actividad física regular como un camino válido para mejorar la percepción y el autoconocimiento personal sobre esta enfermedad. Se aconseja la prescripción de actividad física como forma de mejorar su sintomatología y evolución. La práctica de una actividad física regular en pacientes asmáticos debería ser considerada dentro de los actuales y futuros programas de salud como un objetivo fundamental.

El ocio de los jóvenes se ha considerado fundamental en el desarrollo de la identidad y del self. A estos procesos acompañan las valoraciones sociales de las actividades de ocio juvenil; en particular, las imágenes de la prensa escrita. La presencia y reiteración de imágenes en los medios, conlleva a la aceptación, por parte de la opinión pública, de una interpretación ¿parcial, sesgada¿ de la realidad. Partiendo de estas ideas, en esta contribución se realiza un análisis de contenido de las imágenes del ocio juvenil en la prensa; específicamente, identificando las personas representadas según género y edad, y describiendo las actividades promovidas y los espacios representados ¿de manera de valorar los estereotipos presentes en la agenda relativa al ocio juvenil. Se obtuvo una muestra de 211 noticias mediante la combinación de las palabras 'ocio' y 'jóvenes' en los diarios El País (n = 100), La Vanguardia (n = 60) y El Punt Avui (n = 51) publicados a lo largo de 2012. Se describen las principales tendencias (frecuencias, porcentajes) de cada variable y se llevan a cabo asociaciones entre las variables con los diarios considerados (mediante la prueba no paramétrica de chi cuadrado), así como entre actividades y el resto de variables relativas a personas, espacios y horarios. Los resultados obtenidos ofrecen una visión del ocio juvenil que, en líneas generales, es masculina, se extiende hasta la adultez y destaca lo festivo ¿las celebraciones¿, transcurriendo en la calle durante las horas del día. A esta visión acompaña la ambigüedad que se desprende de imágenes en las que no hay personas y/o resulta difícil identificar qué se hace, cuándo y dónde. Esta visión es sensible, por una parte, al propio medio que difunde las imágenes y, por otra parte, a estereotipos sobre las propias actividades promovidas como ocios. En un sentido más general, los hallazgos advierten cómo se está influyendo en la opinión que tiene el ciudadano sobre el ocio de los jóvenes, cuestión que debería ser abordada frontalmente mediante medidas legislativas, políticas sociales o culturales.

The research group Gre‐TICE (Grupo de investigación en tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación en Educación) has the acquisition of the multimedia language and their use as a form of expression as one of their lines of research. During the academic year 2002‐ 2003, following previous work in the use of ICT in Education, commenced upon the project: “The acquisition of visual and sound codes and the processes related to the visual media”. The intention of this project is to study how formal or non‐formal education context can help young adults and children to acquire visual and sound codes to become ‘critical consumers’ with the media and to use the tools in a creative way. To achieve this objective, the project team has developed a partner group which includes professional from different European regions; including teachers and managers from across the age spectrum, government institutions and cultural organisations. Whilst the project will call upon qualitative analysis of the previous projects / research, it will seek to develop ‘Good Practice’ guides and other resources/ materials to be disseminated to project partners (and others) to build innovative actions throughout the European region

This article examines the education of children and young people in public care and the available data about their situation from several conceptual perspectives.We present a qualitative empirical study on how a sample of care leavers perceives this situation as well as the stakeholders involved in the public care process: managers of services and nominated adults by young people. We present results from a total of 96 interviews conducted in Catalonia. The young people interviewed (N = 35) were between 19 and 22 years old and were selected among those who at the age of 16 were still in care and had good academic results and the capacity andmotivation to continue studying. These young people were interviewed twice, the second a year after to follow the achievement of their training plans. The resultsshow their perception concerning the circumstances that make it easier or difficult to continue studying. Moreover, the results show the matches, mismatches anddiversity among their answers and those of other stakeholders interviewed about what factors facilitate and difficult the education. These results suggest the need for an in-depth review on the representations about the formal education of children in care from professionals and care policies, and how they address the support they need to participate in education

Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) forms part of the whole spectrum of autistic disorders. Until recently it has not been studied in early ages. The aim of this study is to determine the AS’s prevalence of symptoms in general preschool, rural and urban population. In addition, the association of the development areas and symptoms of anxiety and the presence of symptoms of AS was analized. The sample ofthis study consisted in 1104 preschool children between 3-6 years old. The presence of AS’s symptoms was evaluated by a screening tool for psychiatric disorders. This tool was applied to both, preschooler’s parents and their teachers The prevalence of symptoms of AS for parents and teachers was 11.7‰ and 8.1‰, respectively. The presence of AS’s symptoms was associated with language compression delays, general and fine motor coordination, self-help skills and impairment in game activities. In addition, our results showed that the AS has a strong association with specific phobia symptoms and tics. We conclude that an early detection of AS’s symptoms is possible since we found similar prevalence described in other recent researches. Given the impairment associated with AS, its detection is highly recommended
