A tecnologia teve uma grande evolução ao longo dos últimos anos, e isso pode-se ver através das brincadeiras que eram realizadas pelas crianças de antigamente e as atuais. Vivemos em um tempo em que os bebês já possuem contato com recursos tecnológicos e algumas crianças têm mais facilidade em lidar com estes mecanismos do que muitos adultos. Entretanto este uso de tecnologia através de smartphones, computadores, tablets e vídeo games tem se tornado tão frequente que o seu uso não é apenas visto dentro dos lares, mas em ambientes públicos como restaurantes, praças, parques e escolas. O objetivo deste estudo foi averiguar como o uso excessivo destes recursos tecnológicos tem influenciado o comportamento dos alunos em sala de aula e o seu consequente desempenho acadêmico. Para tanto, foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados Scielo e Google Acadêmico, considerando os últimos 10 anos. Verificou-se nos últimos anos, uma crescente quantidade de crianças e adolescentes com diversas doenças psicológicas. O estudo evidenciou que uma importante causa deste problema foi o excessivo contato com as redes sociais, os jogos online e demais opções que a internet disponibiliza para essa faixa etária. Há uma necessidade de controle por parte dos pais, para que seus filhos não fiquem tempo demais nos celulares, mas também de uma postura e ação das administrações escolares para se minimizar o uso destes aparelhos priorizando o estudo no livro, caderno e lousa, para que o aluno tenha um crescimento pedagógico adequado.

Las imágenes míticas de las siete maravillas de la Antigüedad forman parte del imaginario colectivo y constituyen un motivo recurrente en todas las ramas de la cultura, no solo como referentes o modelos a emular en arquitectura o pintura sino también como inspiración en el cine o la literatura fantástica, en series de televisión, en el mundo del cómic, en los juegos de mesa y videojuegos, e incluso en sellos o etiquetas de cerveza. La tradición iconográfica de estas grandes obras del pasado llega a nuestros días enriquecida por numerosas aportaciones a lo largo de los siglos y erigiéndose en una de las raíces de la cultura visual contemporánea.

En la intensa y variada recepción de Maquiavelo en la España de los siglos XVI y XVII, Juan de Mariana y Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas proponen lecturas singulares de la obra del florentino, cuyo nombre se encontraba entonces en las páginas del Índice de los libros prohibidos del cardenal Quiroga. El propósito de este artículo es doble: estudiar las ideas de Maquiavelo apropiadas por ambos autores, y la manera como logran Mariana y Herrera integrar en sus propios tratados discursos sacados del pensamiento del secretario florentino, considerado autor damnatus en la España de la Contrarreforma. La reformulación de argumentos, los plagios o la atribución de sus ideas a autoridades nebulosas serán así otros tantos procedimientos empleados por los autores españoles, entre ellos Mariana y Herrera, para poder discutir con Maquiavelo sin despertar la ira de la Inquisición española.

O setor farmacêutico atingiu receitas globais de US$ 1,6 trilhão em 2023, evidenciando seu vasto poder econômico e sua influência estratégica na economia e política contemporâneas.

Communication has evolved exponentially in recent years. The use of the internet and social networks have revolutionized interpersonal communication and the way of transmitting messages. The effects generated both in society and at the individual level have been addressed in different scenarios and by several authors, although there are still questions in the Ecuadorian context. In this sense, the objective of this research is to determine the influence of the use of social networks on human behavior through population studies in the Ecuadorian context in order to address the phenomenon in a comprehensive manner. The research was conducted in young people between 20 and 30 years of age in the region of Manabí, with different levels of schooling and occupation. A mixed research paradigm was used, with quantitative and qualitative methods to obtain a holistic understanding of the object of study. Observation, in-depth interview, survey, document analysis and triangulation were used as validation methods. A sample of 100 people with stratified sampling was used. The results showed that social networks have a significant influence on human behavior. Ninetythree percent of the sample studied uses some social network. Attitudes of rejection and support are perceived towards this phenomenon. Emotions of joy, empathy, collaboration and communication were associated with this phenomenon, although sadness, anxiety, frustration and failure were also reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Las influencias que se establecen entre distintas obras no siempre están bien delimitadas, razón por la que la crítica, en ocasiones, establece paralelismos o conexiones entre comedias distanciadas. Los motivos presentes en ellas impulsan a los investigadores a establecer fuentes, cuando se trata de piezas que se insertan en una tradición literaria. La falta de un revisionismo de estas teorías da lugar a que se perpetúen, a pesar de haberse visto superadas. Si bien los estudiosos saben relativizarlas, muchas se mantienen en el tiempo. El objetivo de este trabajo es comparar las dos comedias que nos ocupan, a fin de desmentir que El celoso prudente, comedia de Tirso de Molina, es la fuente directa de Del rey abajo, ninguno, atribuido tradicionalmente a Rojas Zorrilla. El estudio comparativo permitirá un mejor entendimiento de las corrientes e influencias literarias compartidas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El análisis de teorías en comunicación y psicología de la audiencia, junto con la descripción de estas, constituye una parte esencial para entender el comportamiento humano. Desde tiempos antiguos, los medios de comunicación han desempeñado un papel crucial al informar a la población, y comprender estos mecanismos implica remontarse a la antigua Roma y explorar la historia. El propósito fundamental de esta investigación fue examinar de manera crítica la influencia de los medios de comunicación en la conducta humana, abordando dimensiones como actitudes, percepciones, valores y comportamientos. Para ello, se recurrió a fuentes bibliográficas, destacando la importancia de evaluar la calidad de la información mediante enfoques cuantitativos y cualitativos. Se empleó el programa Web BuzzSumo [1]como una herramienta que posibilita comprender la realidad a través de métricas de personas en redes sociales como Facebook y Twitter. Los resultados obtenidos permiten afirmar que los medios de comunicación desempeñan un papel significativo en la formación del pensamiento de las personas, especialmente en la sociedad actual. Su contribución se percibe en la configuración de la agenda de temas políticos, sociales y económicos al proporcionar información y elementos que permiten a los individuos y a la sociedad en general crear, reflexionar y forjar sus propias opiniones. [1] BuzzSumo es “una herramienta avanzada de análisis y monitoreo de contenido que permite a los usuarios descubrir contenido popular, tendencias, y principales influencers en diversas plataformas de social media. Es ampliamente utilizado por especialistas en marketing de contenido, estrategas digitales y profesionales de relaciones públicas para optimizar sus estrategias de contenido y engagement” (Smartbrand, 2023). https://www.sb.digital/diccionario-social-media/buzzsumo

Las transiciones durante educación secundaria son momentos clave, ya que las decisiones académico-profesionales adoptadas por los jóvenes, supeditadas por diversos factores, condicionan su futuro. Identificar las principales influencias posibilitará que la práctica orientadora pueda atenderlas, asegurando, en los jóvenes, el máximo provecho de sus oportunidades reales. Este estudio tiene como objetivo determinar, desde la perspectiva de adolescentes y familias, qué factores influyen en la toma de decisiones académico-profesionales de los jóvenes atendiendo a variables como género y país de residencia. Para ello, se realizó un estudio de encuesta, en el seno de una investigación más amplia, empleando un cuestionario para la recogida de datos y utilizando técnicas estadísticas de tipo descriptivo y contrastes de hipótesis. La muestra está conformada por 487 adolescentes y 283 padres/madres, tutores/as o representantes legales de cinco países europeos. Los resultados revelan similitudes y diferencias entre la percepción de familias y jóvenes sobre los factores influyentes en la toma de decisiones, así como entre países y género. Destaca el núcleo familiar como influencia central en las decisiones adoptadas, constituyendo, entre otros, un referente profesional. Desde el punto de vista de las familias, se constata su influencia en las labores de asesoramiento sobre el futuro académico-profesional de sus hijos/as. Se manifiesta la importancia de reforzar la orientación en educación secundaria, implicando a todos los agentes educativos, fundamentalmente, a las familias, con el propósito de que los adolescentes afronten satisfactoriamente los procesos de toma de decisiones y respondan críticamente a las influencias existentes.

En la actualidad, la mayor parte de la población peruana no cuenta con conductas a favor del cuidado del medioambiente, lo que disminuye la posibilidad de lograr un desarrollo sostenible. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la influencia de la gestión ambiental regional en la conducta ecológica ciudadana en el departamento de Tacna. Se consideró una muestra de 384 ciudadanos, con edades entre 15 y 64 años que residen en el departamento de Tacna, los cuales fueron seleccionados al azar, a través de un muestreo aleatorio estratificado y proporcional, distribuidos por provincia, de la siguiente manera: Tacna (357), Jorge Basadre (9), Candarave (10) y Tarata (8). Se utilizó la técnica de la encuesta, a través de la aplicación de dos cuestionarios: gestión ambiental regional (16 ítems) y conducta ecológica ciudadana (24 ítems). Los hallazgos de la presente investigación indican que la conducta ecológica de la población se ve impactada por la implementación de actividades que conforman la gestión ambiental impulsada por el Gobierno Regional de Tacna. Además, cada una de las dimensiones (planes y políticas regionales, sistema regional ambiental, política regional ambiental y comisiones ambientales regionales) tiene influencia sobre la variable conducta ecológica ciudadana.

Social media is an important arena for policy contestation. Although online social media debates can yield notable power over political processes offline, little research has examined the relationship between policy actors' influence in offline policymaking and social media policy arenas. We explore the relationship between four types of influence: reputational and formal‐institutional influence offline, and broadcasting and boosting influence online. We ask (1) are influential policy actors better able than others to broadcast their own messages on social media? and (2) are they better able than others to boost the broadcasting influence of other policy actors in social media? Using exponential random graph models on survey and Twitter data from the Finnish climate policy domain, we find that actors with high reputational influence in offline policymaking are also influential online, when measuring influence as the ability to broadcast one's own message. The pattern does not hold for those with formal‐institutional influence offline. Additionally, offline influence does not translate to the ability to further shape online influence by making boosting other actors' visibility. Our results suggest that although online influence partially corresponds to influence in policymaking, influence varies across arenas of policy contestation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aimed to examine students' perceptions of belonging in their first year studying at a university in Vietnam, explore significant factors affecting students' sense of belonging and find out how students' sense of belonging influences their educational outputs. A mix method approach which combined both quantitative and qualitative analysis was used in this research. In the quantitative phase, 266 first-year students were asked to give their responses on a questionnaire which consisted of three sections. Section one was an adaption from The Psychological Sense of School Membership Scale (Goodenow, 1993) while the other sections involved items on factors affecting students' sense of belonging and the influences of students' belonging on educational outputs. In the qualitative phase, 20 first-year students (10 on-campus and 10 off-campus) took part in the semi-structure interviews. The results showed that the factors affecting students' sense of belonging to the university were academic factors (classroom comfort and instructor support), social factors (cocurricular involvement, peer connection, faculty support, and campus climate) and environmental factors (campus facilities and living space). Institutional factors, on the other hand, did not contribute to students' sense of belonging. Eventually, the findings revealed that students' sense of belonging had a significant effect on their academic achievement, motivation and positive well-being. Meanwhile, loneliness and stress were relieved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Breastfeeding (BF) is essential for the health of newborns and infants; its practice is influenced by various factors, including cultural diversity. The objective of this work was to assess the influence of cultural diversity on BF in Ecuador, analyzing the influence of various factors in two culturally different populations. The research was observational, descriptive, transversal, qualitative, focused on regions of two Ecuadorian provinces, Manabí and Santo Domingo, where surveys were carried out on mothers with children under two years of age. The sample was 86 mothers selected by probabilistic convenience sampling and those with incomplete data were excluded. Descriptive statistics and the chi square and Pearson correlation methods were used to establish associations. The study revealed, in both regions, exclusive breastfeeding was a common practice with a high preference for breastfeeding when mothers left home. However, mixed breastfeeding was also frequently used. The majority of mothers showed a positive attitude towards BF, although there was also a significant presence of positive attitudes towards bottle-feeding and in many cases neutral attitudes, with the association between neutrality towards BF and the cultural pattern of breastfeeding being significant. Province of Manabí. These results suggest a varied consideration of factors when making decisions about baby feeding, reflecting the complexity of BF practice in these Ecuadorian communities.

O presente artigo visa analisar a influência do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas no comportamento de estudantes (adolescentes) moçambicanos e em especial da escola secundária da Manhiça. A metodologia usada foi abordagem mista (qualitativa e quantitativa) que através do questionário, entrevista e observação permitiu a recolha, obtenção de informações e tratamento de dados. Para este trabalho foi usado uma amostra aleatória de 120 estudantes da 11ª e 12ª classe e 10 professores. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que os alunos adolescentes iniciam o consumo de bebidas alcoólicas entre 14 e 17 anos de idade, sendo a idade dos 16 anos a que mais se destaca. Os alunos apresentam como causas do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas a influência dos amigos, das pessoas mais velhas, e, a partir de lazer, entre outros factores que influenciam o adolescente a consumir bebidas alcoólicas com vista a sua autoafirmação na sociedade e nos amigos. Nesta perspectiva foi possível aferir que o consumo de bebidas alcoólicas pelos estudantes adolescentes influencia negativamente no comportamento e no desempenho escolar.
