Coronary heart disease and cortical thickness, gray matter and white matter lesion volumes on MRI
Coronary heart disease (CHD) has been linked with cognitive decline and dementia in several studies. CHD is strongly associated with blood pressure, but it is not clear how blood pressure levels or changes in blood pressure ...
Implementation and evaluation in low intensity intervention programs from the CONNECT perspective of mixed methods: Application in a case of an autistic child
There has been a comprehensive development over the last few years of low intensity intervention programs that are implemented within a user context and that are made up of everyday life activities, and it has been necessary ...
Detección precoz del trastorno del espectro autista durante el primer año de vida en la consulta pediátrica
Las señales de alarma del Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA) pueden detectarse desde el primer año de vida. Se observan en el niño, la familia y la relación entre ambos. La consulta pediátrica es un contexto natural ...
Vitamin D in relation to cognitive impairment, cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers, and brain volumes
Background: Low vitamin D status is associated with poorer cognitive function in older adults, but little is known about the potential impact on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers and brain volumes. The objective of this ...
Structural brain changes and cognition in relation to markers of vascular dysfunction
The aim was to investigate the relationship between blood markers of vascular dysfunction with brain microstructural changes and cognition. Eighty-six participants from the Barcelona-Asymptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis ...
Cognitive patterns in relation to biomarkers of cerebrovascular disease and vascular risk factors
Background: Risk factors for vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) are the same as traditional risk factors for cerebrovascular disease (CVD). Early identification of subjects at higher risk of VCI is important for the ...
Tract-specific fractional anisotropy predicts cognitive outcome in a community sample of middle-aged participants with white matter lesions
Cerebral white matter lesions (WMLs) have been consistently related to cognitive dysfunction but the role of white matter (WM) damage in cognitive impairment is not fully determined. Diffusion tensor imaging is a promising ...
Collaboration between professionals and mothers to enhance oral communication competence in bilingual children with language disorders in inclusive contexts
Introduction: Research on the effectiveness of family interventions is essential for enhancing the oral communicative competence of children with developmental language disorders. This study examined mother–child interactions ...
Deep versus periventricular white matter lesions and cognitive function in a community sample of middle-aged participants
The association of cerebral white matter lesions (WMLs) with cognitive status is not well understood in middle-aged individuals. Our aim was to determine the specific contribution of periventricular hyperintensities (PVHs) ...
Los planes personales de aprendizaje como instrumentos al servicio de la personalización del aprendizaje
Los Planes Personales de Aprendizaje (PPA) parten de los objetivos de aprendizaje del alumnado como foco de la acción educativa. Estas herramientas pedagógicas se fundamentan en la premisa de que los estudiantes estarán ...

Este estudio exploró las creencias, experiencia y autopercepción de competencias de los estudiantes de segundo curso del grado de Psicología de la Universidad de Barcelona con respecto a la escritura académica. Se aplicó ...
Grey matter and cognitive patterns in cognitive impaired subjects using CSF biomarker cut-offs
The aim of this study was to investigate brain tissue volumes, grey matter (GM) distribution, and cognitive performance for cognitively impaired subjects using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker cut-offs as grouping ...
Children's and adolescents' specific interest in science and technology, participation in out-of-school activities and inclination to become scientists
Recently, the literature has repeatedly reported an interest decrease in science and technology (S&T) among youngsters, and a drop of students choosing professions related to these knowledge areas. This study pursued to ...
Cerebrovascular markers in lowered cognitive function
Cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of age-related cognitive decline and dementia. The identification of cognitive-related cerebrovascular markers is crucial in the early detection of individuals at high risk ...
Conectar experiencias de dentro y fuera de la escuela para promover el aprendizaje personalizado
La expansión del aprendizaje a lo largo y a lo ancho de la vida (Banks et al., 2007) en la sociedad de la información ha hecho evidente que el aprendizaje es un proceso que se lleva a cabo como consecuencia de la participación ...
Proposing Necessary but not Sufficient Conditions Analysis as a Complement of Traditional Effect Size Measures with an Illustrative Example
Even though classic effect size measures (e.g., Pearson’s r, Cohen’s d) are widely applied in social sciences, the threshold used to interpret them is somewhat arbitrary. This study proposes necessary condition analysis ...
