A Latin Spring? Examining digital diffusion and youth bulges in forecasting political change in Latin America
(Routledge, 2014) Bachmann C., Ingrid; Groshek, Jacob; Brewer, Anita; Welp, Yanina
The story is quite different in the countries that experienced the Arab Spring, where autocratic governments were still the rule in the twenty-first century. Arguably, shifts in democratic countries would be more likely to be measured rather than major revolutions like the ones that ended up ousting Hosni Mubarak in Egypt and Ben Ali in Tunisia. Conventional wisdom suggests that mass media and media diffusion are important for public deliberation, and play an important role fostering and maintaining democracy and stable societies. Research from political science and mass communication stresses the democratizing role of media. Indeed, in the last decades both neoliberal economics and populist politics have coexisted in several Latin American countries, for both left- and right-leaning governments. On the whole, the region has gone through overall economic stabilization, although political conflicts related to poorly distributed income, high unemployment, and lack of opportunities for young and indigenous people persist in most of the countries.

Análisis de un proceso de práctica profesional orientado a la reflexión docente
(2017) Rivas Catricheo, Hernán; Vásquez Ortiz, Claudia; Pincheira Hauck Nataly Goreti; Contreras, J. M.; Arteaga, P.; Cañadas, G. R.; Gea, M. M.; Giacomone, B.; López Martín, M. M.
La reflexión sobre la práctica es reconocida como una competencia importante en losprocesos de formación inicial y continua del profesorado. En el caso de la formacióninicial, la práctica profesional constituye una instancia privilegiada para favorecer procesosreflexivos, dada la oportunidad que tienen los futuros profesores de asumir por completo elrol de profesor en espacios naturales de enseñanza. Sin embargo, se requiere contar conherramientas que orienten una reflexión fundada. En este estudio aplicamos la noción dehecho didáctico significativo en conjunto con una guía de reflexión, ambos basados en lanoción de idoneidad didáctica, con el fin de orientar el análisis y la reflexión durante unproceso de práctica profesional enfocado en la enseñanza de la matemática.
Analysis of Multidisciplinary Collaboration in Primary Healthcare: The Chilean Case
(2017) Saint-Pierre, Cecilia; Sepúlveda, Marcos; Herskovic, Valeria
Around 10% of the population suffers from diabetes, and this percentage is expected to rise. Healthcare guidelines propose a multidisciplinary, collaborative approach for treatment. However, there is little data to understand whether healthcare professionals are actually collaborating and how this collaboration takes place. We analyzed 4 years of data from 3 healthcare centers in Chile, corresponding to 2,838 patients. Patients were classified according to the composition of the healthcare team into four categories: highly multidisciplinary teams, specialized teams, physician-nurse centered teams, and non-collaborative treatment. Our results show that team prevalence is related to patient and healthcare center characteristics.
Applying Clustering in Process Mining to Find Different Versions of a Business Process That Changes over Time
(Springer, 2012) Luengo Mundaca, Daniela Lorena; Sepúlveda Fernández, Marcos Ernesto
Most Process Mining techniques assume business processes remain steady through time, when in fact their underlying design could evolve over time. Discovery algorithms should be able to automatically find the different versions of a process, providing independent models to describe each of them. In this article, we present an approach that uses the starting time of each process instance as an additional feature to those considered in traditional clustering approaches. By combining control-flow and time features, the clusters formed share both a structural similarity and a temporal proximity. Hence, the process model generated for each cluster should represent a different version of the analyzed business process. A synthetic example set was used for testing, showing the new approach outperforms the basic approach. Although further testing with real data is required, these results motivate us to deepen on this research line.
Bayesian Nonparametric Approaches for ROC Curve Inference
(2015) Calhau Fernandes, Inacio De Carvalho Vanda; Jara, Alejandro; Bras De Carvalho, Miguel
The development of medical diagnostic tests is of great importance in clinical practice, public health, and medical research. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is a popular tool for evaluating the accuracy of such tests. We review Bayesian nonparametric methods based on Dirichlet process mixtures and the Bayesian bootstrap for ROC curve estimation and regression. The methods are illustrated by means of data concerning diagnosis of lung cancer in women.
Biblical Techniques for the Interpretation of the Nicene Creed: the Case of Athanasius’ De synodis
(Ferdinand Schöning / Brill, 2020) Fernández Eyzaguirre, Samuel José; Usacheva, Anna; Jacobsen, Anders Ch.
The Trinitarian controversy of the 350s revolved around synodical texts, because the term ‘consubstantial’ (ὁμοούσιος), proclaimed by the synod of Nicaea (325), was rejected by many of the eastern bishops. For the first time in history, an important theological discussion was shaped not only by the interpretation of Scripture but also the understanding of a creed. Within this new institutional and theological context, Athanasius of Alexandria, in his work De synodis (359), made a serious attempt to establish criteria for interpreting synodical texts. The present article studies Athanasius’ effort to apply biblical hermeneutical criteria to the interpretation of synodical documents. In order to shed light on this innovative contribution of Athanasius, the article proceeds as follows: first, I review the historical and theological context of his activity; second, I examine each of the objections to the Nicaean creed and the solutions offered by the Bishop of Alexandria; finally, I explore the rationale of Athanasius’ interpretation of synodical documents and its significance for the formation of Christian discourse.

Chilean native species as source of natural polyphenols
(CABI, 2013) Fredes, Carolina; Montenegro, Gloria; Céspedes, Carlos L.; Sampietro, Diego A.; Sigler, David; Rai, Mahendra
This chapter discusses the traditional uses of native medicinal plants from Chile and provides tabulated data on Chilean medicinal plants, including the parts used and their effects, in order to analyse compounds that could be responsible for these medicinal effects. It presents scientific evidence supporting biological activity associated with the presence of polyphenols in Chilean plants. The determination of polyphenols in Chilean plants and their antioxidant capacity are described. The main factors affecting polyphenol content in plants are also mentioned, i.e. genotype, environment, storage and processing, and stage of harvest.

Constructing Simple Biological Networks for Understanding Complex High-Throughput Data in Plants
(Springer, 2015) Vidal Olate, Elena Alejandra; Contreras López, Luis Orlando; Gutiérrez Ilabaca, Rodrigo Antonio; Moyano Yugovic, Tomás Custodio; Stepanova, Anna N.
Technological advances in the last decade have enabled biologists to produce increasing amounts of information for the transcriptome, proteome, interactome, and other -omics data sets in many model organisms. A major challenge is integration and biological interpretation of these massive data sets in order to generate testable hypotheses about gene regulatory networks or molecular mechanisms that govern system behaviors. Constructing gene networks requires bioinformatics skills to adequately manage, integrate, analyze and productively use the data to generate biological insights. In this chapter, we provide detailed methods for users without prior knowledge of bioinformatics to construct gene networks and derive hypotheses that can be experimentally verified. Step-by-step instructions for acquiring, integrating, analyzing, and visualizing genome-wide data are provided for two widely used open source platforms, R and Cytoscape platforms. The examples provided are based on Arabidopsis data, but the protocols presented should be readily applicable to any organism for which similar data can be obtained.
Coping with Natural Disasters and Urban Risk: An Approach to Urban Sustainability from Socio-Environmental Fragmentation and Urban Vulnerability Assessment
(Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2014) Link, Felipe; Barth, Katrin; Harris, Jordan Michael; Irarrazaval Irarrazaval, Felipe; Valenzuela, Felipe; Welz, Juliane; William G. Holt; CEDEUS (Chile)
Purpose - Cities have been exposed to a variety of natural disasters such as flooding, extreme temperatures, storms, earthquakes, and other natural shocks, and have had to respond and adapt to such pressures over time. In the context of global climate change, natural disasters have increased across the globe. Apart from climate change, many urban environments in Latin America are experiencing significant transformations in land use patterns, socio-demographic change, changing labor markets, and economic growth, resulting from recent decades of globalization. Such transformations have resulted in the internal fragmentation of cities. In this context, the purpose of the present chapter is to demonstrate the importance in both theoretical and methodological terms, of integrating the concept of socio-environmental fragmentation into urban vulnerability research in order to make progress toward higher degrees of local sustainability in those areas of the city that suffer natural disasters and fragmentation. Methodology/approach - A mixed methods approach is used in order to combine different technical issues from urban and climate change studies. Findings - The findings are related to the importance of an integrated approach, regarding the complexity of urban life, and the relationship between the urban, the social, and the environmental phenomenon. Social implications - This chapter relates to the revisit of the current state of preparedness and to determine whether further adaptations are required. The authors understood that these kinds of mixed approaches are necessary in order to understand the new complexity of urban processes.
