Evaluación de los factores de riesgo y protección de un programa de prevención universal de las drogodependencias en el ámbito educativo

Este estudio pretende evaluar un programa de Prevención Universal de las drogodependencias en el ámbito educativo a través de los cambios que produce en los diferentes factores de riesgo y protección seleccionados. La intensidad de la exposición al programa y la realización de talleres de refuerzo también han sido objetivo de la evaluación. La valoración se ha realizado en todas las etapas educativas: Educación Infantil, Educación Primaria y Educación Secundaria, teniéndose en cuenta el sexo y el curso. Metodología: La muestra está compuesta por 3.454 estudiantes de la Comunidad de Madrid. 250 estudiantes de Educación Infantil, 849 estudiantes de 1º y 2º Ciclo de Primaria, 520 estudiantes de 3º Ciclo de Primaria y 1.835 estudiantes de ESO. Se elaboraron 4 instrumentos de medida de factores de riesgo y protección: Preval_PP1 para Educación Infantil y Preval_PP2 para el 1º y 2º Ciclo de Primaria, ambos son informes a rellenar por el profesorado. El Preval_PP3 para el 3º Ciclo de Primaria y el Preval_PP4 para la ESO en forma de autoinforme a rellenar por el alumnado. A través de las bases de datos evaluamos la cantidad de años que cada centro ha participado en el programa preventivo así como el número de estudiantes que ha participado en talleres de refuerzo. Mediante un diseño cuasi-experimental con medida pre-test y post-test se realizan ANOVAs de medidas repetidas teniendo en cuenta el sexo y el curso para evaluar los cambios en los factores de riesgo y protección y comparar los centros de alta y baja exposición así como comparar al alumnado que realiza talleres de refuerzo con los que no los realizan...

Los orígenes de la industria española de los forasteros

La llegada de forasteros a nuestro país no era una empresa fácil de acometer en una España en crisis después de 1898, dividida políticamente entre conservadores y liberales, y con serias carencias en sus infraestructuras y transportes. La actividad comercial española necesitaba nuevos frentes y el turismo podría convertirse en un importante factor y motor mercantil.La búsqueda y la construcción en torno a ese objetivo comenzó a partir de 1905, cuando la iniciativa pública y privada realizaron las primeras gestiones encaminadas a este fin, y se constituyen se constituyeron sociedades-sindicatos, según el modelo francés, para fomentar la afición por los viajes y la recepción de viajeros.

Commentary on Fine Arts Copyright Act 1862

Legislation conferring copyright protection on paintings, drawings, and photographs for the life of the author plus a seven year post mortem term. The Act was also innovative in de-coupling the copyright term from the event of publication, in providing artists with a new form of ‘moral rights' protection, and in introducing the concept of "originality" as the standard threshold for copyright protection.
The commentary explores the background to the legislation, and in particular, the international copyright regime, the nature of the art market in eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the role of the Society of Artists in lobbying for legislative protection, and the impetus which the International Exhibition provided for securing the same. The commentary also considers how the 1862 Bill, in its earliest incarnation, incorporated elements that would have signalled a radical departure from established copyright norms. In particular, the Bill proposed: that copyright protection should not be contingent upon registration; and that protection should be offered on a universal basis, regardless of an artists' nationality, and regardless of where the work in question was created.

A review of the economic consequences of a policy of universal leucodepletion as compared to existing practices

Leucodepletion, the removal of leucocytes from blood products improves the safety of blood transfusion by reducing adverse events associated with the incidental non-therapeutic transfusion of leucocytes. Leucodepletion has been shown to have clinical benefit for immuno-suppressed patients who require transfusion. The selective leucodepletion of blood products by bed side filtration for these patients has been widely practiced. This study investigated the economic consequences in Queensland of moving from a policy of selective leucodepletion to one of universal leucodepletion, that is providing all transfused patients with blood products leucodepleted during the manufacturing process. Using an analytic decision model a cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted. An ICER of $16.3M per life year gained was derived. Sensitivity analysis found this result to be robust to uncertainty in the parameters used in the model. This result argues against moving to a policy of universal leucodepletion. However during the course of the study the policy decision for universal leucodepletion was made and implemented in Queensland in October 2008. This study has concluded that cost-effectiveness is not an influential factor in policy decisions regarding quality and safety initiatives in the Australian blood sector.

Towards universal high quality early childhood education

The Australian Government has committed $970 million over 5 years to fund the expansion of preschool education and has established a National Early Childhood Education Partnership Agreement with States and Territories to achieve universal preschool access by 2013. The Partnership Agreement acknowledges the role of State and Territory Government in preschool education, and different approaches to preschool provision. It also recognises differences in current preschool participation rates across states and territories. This paper offers snapshots of a number of different models of preschool provision, spanning traditional sessional approaches to some integrated and innovative approaches within the long day care context. The paper explores the newer long day care model and offers recommendations for the delivery of preschool education within this different context.

Universal online interventions might engage psychologically distressed university students who are unlikely to seek formal help

University students are a high risk population for mental health problems, yet few seek professional help when experiencing problems. This study explored the potential role of an online intervention for promoting wellbeing in university students, by investigating students' help-seeking behaviour, intention to use online interventions and student content preference for such interventions; 254 university students responded to an online survey designed for this study. As predicted, students were less likely to seek help as levels of psychological distress increased. Conversely, intention to use an online intervention increased at higher levels of distress, with 39.1%, 49.4% and 57.7% of low, moderate and severely distressed students respectively indicating they would use an online program supporting student well-being. Results suggest that online interventions may be a useful way to provide help to students in need who otherwise may not seek formal help.
