La naturaleza de los sueños

La presente obra está dedicada al tema del sueño desde tres áreas del conocimiento: la biológica, la psicológica y la social. El estilo de los textos es formal y académicamente riguroso, pero los modelos, teorías y resultados científicos se presentan de manera clara y accesible. De este modo, los elementos y términos técnicos se explican con detalle en el cuerpo del texto o en pies de página y figuras. La naturaleza de los sueños abre el telón con los estudios introductorios de José Luis Díaz Gómez y Enrique Soto Eguibar, para dar lugar a los ensayos del área biológica. En esta primera parte, el libro cuenta con textos de María Corsi-Cabrera, Lourdes Cubero Rego, Fructuoso...

Intra- and Inter-individual Variability of Executive Functions: Determinant and Modulating Factors in Healthy and Pathological Conditions

This eBook attempts to unify the contributions of different research groups investigating the sources of variability in executive functions, discussing the most recent developments and integrating the knowledge accumulated across different fields. It consists of a compilation of empirical, theoretical and review articles studying executive functions in both clinical and healthy human populations. Some of the key influences on intra- and inter-variability in executive functions discussed include the developmental trajectory of executive functions, healthy and pathological aging in executive functions, as well as the influence of environmental factors and intelligence on executive functions.

Memory and motivational/emotional processes

It is well established that memory for emotional information is generally better than for neutral information. This Research Topic comprises a set of papers focusing on memory and its relation with motivational and emotional processes, ranging from electroencephalographic evidences of emotional modulation of memory systems, to the role of neurotransmitters/neuromodulators (i.e. endocannabinoid, glucocorticoid, serotonin, noradrenergic, dopaminergic systems), and second messengers on emotional memory, and the specific involvement of cerebral areas on the relation between memory and motivational/emotional processes (i.e. prefrontal cortex, amygdala, accumbens). In particular, some of the topic...

Digital Skills and Life-long Learning: Digital Learning as a New Insight of Enhanced Learning by the Innovative Approach Joining Technology and Cognition

Recently, technology and aging have been key research areas in human cognition. The Research Topic “Digital Skills and Life-long Learning: Digital Learning as a New Insight of Enhanced Learning by the Innovative Approach Joining Technology and Cognition” investigated technology's impact on cognitive and intellective processes, highlighting how intensively technology can change and/or enhance the cognitive functioning throughout one’s lifespan. The aim of this Research Topic was to provide an outlook through multidisciplinary research and development while addressing the dynamic intersection of cognition, mind, and technology. Our scope was 1) to favor the cognitive technology debate, 2...

The Passion Narratives of Saints Perpetua, Felicity, and Their Fellow Martyrs

The Passion Narratives of Saints Perpetua, Felicity, and Their Fellow Martyrs presents a critical translation of three hagiographical masterpieces of late antiquity and a series of accompanying essays. The translation by Francis J. Hunter includes the two Acta Brevia narratives as companion texts and supplements to the Passio Sanctarum proper. The interdisciplinary essays feature input from scholars in the fields of literature, theology, psychology, and classics, who each illustrate the dynamic and rich nature of the text. Each chapter of the book is written to teach, rather than critique, the text for students or readers who wish to learn about Perpetua and Felicity, early Christianity, or the Roman empire and its relationship with the emergent Christian religion.

Taiwan’s COVID-19 Experience

This book explores and develops the ongoing conversation about how Taiwan navigated through the COVID-19 pandemic. Emphasizing the themes of governance and governmentality, it moves the foci of the discussion from COVID policies to the social and political orders undergirding the statecraft of pandemic management. Furthermore, it analyzes how the pandemic fostered a historical moment at which new forms of governance and governmentality were beginning to take root. It also situates Taiwan’s precarious nationhood in its global context, thereby challenging a prevalent methodological nationalism – the assumption that the nation is a natural unit of analysis whose borders are more or less unquestioned – and contributing to decolonizing Western theories with perspectives from the Global South. Presenting rich original materials on the legal and public debates, individual reflections, and grassroots campaigns during COVID, this book will be essential reading for students and scholars of Taiwan's governance and social health policy, as well as medical anthropology and sociology.

Fragmentation in Sleep and Mind: Linking Dissociative Symptoms, Sleep, and Memory

Fragmentation in Sleep and Mind: Linking Dissociative Symptoms, Sleep, and Memory

Fragmented, dissociated consciousness can characterize the mind in both wake and sleep states. Dissociative symptoms, during sleep, include vivid dreaming, nightmares, and alterations in objective sleep parameters (e.g., lengthening of REM sleep). During waking hours, dissociative symptoms exhibit disparate characteristics encompassing memory problems, excessive daydreaming, absentmindedness, and impairments and discontinuities in perceptions of the self, identity, and the environment. Llewellyn has theorized that a progressive and enduring de-differentiation of wake and dream states of consciousness eventually results in schizophrenia; a lesser degree of de-differentiation may have implications for dissociative symptoms. Against a background of de-differentiation between the dream and wake states, the papers in this volume link consciousness, memory, and mental illness with a special interest for dissociative symptoms.

Bildung im digitalen Wandel

Bildung im digitalen Wandel

Digitalisierungsprozesse bieten die Chance, Teilhabe in der Gesellschaft zu erweitern, indem Bildungsangebote besser zugänglich gemacht oder auf verschiedene Personengruppen individuell zugeschnitten werden. Ebenso erweitern neue Formen der digitalen Interaktionen und Kommunikation den Spielraum für Partizipation und die Gestaltung gesellschaftlicher Prozesse. Damit entstehen neue Potenziale für Teilhabe und Inklusion, aber auch neue Exklusionsrisiken, wie sie beispielsweise mit dem Phänomen des Digital Divide beschrieben werden. Die in diesem Band vertretenen Bildungssektoren, die von der frühen Bildung bis zur Erwachsenenbildung reichen und formale, non-formale und informelle Bildungskontexte abdecken, beschäftigen sich jeweils mit spezifischen Fragestellungen aus dem Themenfeld Soziales Lernen, Teilhabe und Digitalisierung. Die fünf Forschungssynthesen und eine Darstellung der methodischen Vorgehensweise bilden den vierten Teil der Reihe „Digitalisierung in der Bildung. Forschungsstand und -perspektiven“, deren Anliegen es ist, aktuelles Forschungswissen zu Fragestellungen der Bildung in der digitalen Welt aufzubereiten und zu synthetisieren.
