En términos generales las habilidades clínicas en fisioterapia se pueden englobar tres dimensiones: a) para la realización de evaluación del paciente; b) técnicas los procedimientos prácticos; y c) comunicación gestión (Michels et al., 2012). Los estudiantes adquieren prácticas a través integración conocimientos teóricos, prácticos (Bugaj & Nikendei, 2016; Korpi 2017), tácitos situacionales...

The present research uses a technique that permits unique estimation of both automatic and effortful processes in the question-behavior link. Results show that individuals asked to report behavioral intent (versus those not asked) are more likely to choose options that are highly accessible and positively valenced regardless of cognitive resources at the time of processing. This suggests that t...

This paper analyzes changes in the null subject parameter in Caribbean Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese varieties. Assuming a Minimalist framework that ascribes parametric variation to differences in lexical settings, it is argued that increased frequency of overt pronominals and an anti-locality principle against Spec, head grammatical interactions trigger a shift from interpretable to unintep...

This paper is one of a coordinated set prepared for a NATO Modelling and Simulation Group Lecture Series in Command and Control – Simulation Interoperability (C2SIM). This paper describes the current state of practice of C2SIM with regard to client systems, server systems, ancillary software, and overall Coalitions: systems constructed from such systems. 1.0 INTRODUCTION This paper was prepared...

The effectiveness of fixed-radius point counts in quantifying abundance and richness of bird species in oak-hickory, pine-hardwoods, mixed-mesophytic, beech-maple, and riparian cottonwood forests was evaluated in Arkansas, Ohio, Kentucky, and Idaho. Effects of count duration and numbers of stations and visits per stand were evaluated in May to July 1991 by conducting approximately 1000 50-m (or...

Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major public health concern in the United States. HCV infection is the leading cause of cirrhosis and the most common indication for liver transplantation [1]. There is growing appreciation that HCV infection is a systemic infection and does not only cause liver disease. For instance, health-related quality of life (HRQL)may be notably diminished, ...

– Article 120.1 of the NFPA 70E establishes the procedure for creating an electrically safe work condition. Since this was written, the day-to-day practice of electrical safety has changed going beyond the precise language of Article 120.1(1-6). This is due to the increased usage of permanent electrical safety devices (PESDs) in Lock-out/Tagout procedures. The relatively new concept of permanen...

The objectives of the NGV (Next Generation Vehicle) Project were to demonstrate that stainless steel can be used to reduce weight and costs, and to improve safety and sustainability in structural automotive systems. The deliverables include enabling technologies, virtual technology for design and development, processing and testing. The compilation of the results as well as aspects such as new ...
