Ex Post Facto Study

The present study aims to describe social skills in the late childhood and to analyze the ways in which they influence the ability to cope with stress. Social skills are defined as specific and necessary social dexterities to adequately perform an interpersonal task. They allow the expression of feelings, desires, attitudes, opinions and rights in an appropriate way. Therefore, they are of great value when it comes to strengthening relationships, adjusting to environmental demands and selecting adaptive strategies to cope with stress. An empirical, quantitative, ex post facto study was conducted with a sample of 223 children of both sexes, between 9 and 12 years old (M = 10.61, SD = 1.10), from the provinces of Chaco and Misiones, Argentina. The measuring instruments used in this research were the Argentine Coping Questionnaire for Children and the Appropriate Social Skills Subscale of Matson, validated in Argentina. The results showed the presence of a moderately high level of social skills in children, without differences due to gender or age. Through multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) analysis, a significant influence of social skills on coping with stress was observed. Children who obtained high scores in measurements of social skills showed also high scores in logical analysis, cognitive restructuring, proactive problem-solving, a propensity to seek advice and support, and lower values of emotional release.

The Impact

In this work we study the impact of relinquishment and the adoption process in posttraumatic symptoms and stressful life events in a group of 55 adults that were adopted as children after the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). The effects of institutionalization, maltreatment and traumatic revelation of the adopted status have also been studied. No significant differences were found between institutionalized and non-institutionalized adoptees in posttraumatic symptomatology and stressful life events frequency. However, maltreated adoptees scored significantly higher in intrusion, arousal and stressful life events frequency than non-maltreated. Similar differences were found in the comparison between adoptees with and without traumatic revelation; those adoptees who suffered traumatic revelation presented significantly higher intrusion, arousal and stressful life events frequency than those who did not suffer traumatic revelation. Traumatic revelation, alone or in association with maltreatment, seems to play an important role in posttraumatic symptoms in the sample studied.

In the current paper the land selling scenario of the Depeasantised persons is analysed. Study Design and Place of Study: An Ex-post-Facto study has been conducted in Nayagarh District of Odisha, which is one of the peri-urban districts of the Capital city of Odisha. Methodology: A total of 280 number of Depeasantised persons were selected randomly from 5 blocks out of 8 blocks of the district for the study. A structured interview schedule was prepared for collecting the data from the respondents. With proper statistical tools the data was analysed and interpreted for the result. The proportion of respondents sold land, category of farmers who sold land, the reason of land selling, and the persons to whom the land sold was found out during the investigation. Result: Almost half of the depeasantised persons have sold their lands, all of then have sold a portion of their lands only. More than 85 percent of the respondents belonged to the marginal farer category who had sold their lands. Debt repayment was the primary factor for selling of land in the study area. Most of the depeasantised persons more than 60 percent had sold their lands to landlords and other moneyed persons. Conclusion: To safeguard the interest of the farmers and to prevent the land selling of the small and marginal farmers government should have more focused approach to solve this issue.

RESUMENEste trabajo pretendió utilizar el Inventario de Cociente Emocional en su versión para adolescentes EQ-i:YV, de Bar-On adaptado a la población española por investigadores de la universidad de Murcia en 2012, a una muestra de 345 alumnos de educación secundaria obligatoria (ESO) en un centro público de Zaragoza, con un alto nivel de inmigración y diversidad. Mediante un diseño correlacional “ex post facto”, se analizó la influencia que variables independientes ejercían sobre la variable dependiente número de suspensos. Igualmente se llevaron a cabo análisis de varianza y otros análisis mediante el programa SPSS versión 22 y Lisrel 8.51, encontrando que los datos son similares a los obtenidos en el trabajo original, que los varones aventajan a las mujeres en el factor estado de ánimo y adaptabilidad y que éstas aventajan a aquellos en el factor interpersonal y en rendimiento académico. Los análisis de regresión muestran que solamente los factores Interpersonal y Manejo del estrés entran en la ecuación de predicción, con correlaciones positivas pero bajas que explican poca cantidad de varianza, y que casi no hay diferencias en los factores en los cuatro cursos de la etapa, sugiriéndose una conceptualización más cercana a la teoría de los rasgos, o una interpretación más laxa en cuanto al desarrollo emocional se refiere. La conclusión final es que este constructo tal vez haya sido algo sobredimensionado y no tenga tanta relevancia en el rendimiento académico como han pretendido algunos autores.ABSTRACTThis work aimed to use the Bar-On EQ-i:YV Emotional Quotient Inventory: Young Versión, adapted to the Spanish population by researchers of the University of Murcia in 2012, to a sample of 345 students of Compulsory Secondary Education (CSE) in a public center in Zaragoza, with a high level of immigration and diversity. Through an "ex post facto" correlation design, we analyzed the influence that independent variables exerted on the dependent variable number of suspended subjects. Likewise, variance analysis, among others were carried out using the SPSS version 22 and Lisrel 8.51 program, finding that the data are similar to those obtained in the original study, that men outperform women in the factor of mood and adaptability, and that these outweigh those in the interpersonal factor and in academic achievement. Regression analysis show that only the Interpersonal and Stress Management factors enter into the prediction equation, with positive but low correlations that explain little amount of variance, and that there are almost no differences in the factors in the four courses of the this educational stage, suggesting a conceptualization closer to the theory of traits, or a more lax interpretation in terms of emotional development. The final conclusion is that this construct may have been somewhat oversized and does not have as much relevance in academic performance as some authors have claimed.

The objective is to calculate the value of the green industrial PIB of a foundry in the territory of Santa Catarina and to contextualize its importance as a new methodological tool. To legitimize the objective of this study, the green GDP equation is equal to the Gross Sales Revenue (Industrial GDP) - (Depletion of Water Resources + Cost of Environmental Degradation). In this context, the depletion of natural resources corresponds to the total value of the extraction of water resources, and the cost of sectoral environmental degradation is given through the proxies of the methodology of the Industrial Pollution Projection System (IPPS) applied directly to the industrial product sector. estimate of the cost of the industrial sector studied here. Methodologically, it is an exploratory, descriptive, explanatory, bibliographic, documentary and ex post facto study. As a result, the green GDP of the foundry was lower than the industrial GDP in all the surveyed years. It is noticed that the industrial economic activity of the foundry, within these parameters of analysis, signals a loss of future sustainability, taking into account the years investigated. Therefore, in order for this particular industry to reverse this scenario, investments in technologies are necessary, in order to minimize the consumption of natural resources and consequently maximize its green GDP.
