    Proposed Model to Understand Coping Mechanisms Development in Athletes Living with Type 1 Diabetes to Address Physical Activity Barriers
    (Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers, 2024) Montt Blanchard, Denise
    Background and Aims: Individuals with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) often face distinct hurdles in high‐performance sports, with some athletes using coping mechanisms that remain poorly understood. This study explores the significance of these coping mechanisms in overcoming T1D‐related barriers in competitive physical activities among young and adult patients in Chile. By delving into these mechanisms, the study aims to bridge knowledge gaps in T1D management within high‐performance sports, ultimately promoting physical activity for individuals with T1D. Methods: An interdisciplinary patient‐centered approach was employed in this study. In‐depth interviews were conducted with thirty competitive athletes with T1D who participated in any Olympic sport at a competitive level. The interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using QcaMap. Thematic analysis was carried out by professionals from behavioral sciences and design to comprehensively examine the coping mechanisms of the participants. Results: The study reveals three key insights for T1D self‐management in high‐performance sports: negative influences driving competitive training motivation, physical coping mechanisms for diabetes, and positive outcomes impacting performance. Examined through psychological behavior theory, these insights deepen our understanding of T1D management in sports. Conclusions: This research provides insights into how athletes with T1D overcome physical activity barriers, offering a model for understanding strategies. These insights can guide inclusive design solutions to promote physical activity in T1D, linking behavioral science and design. This interdisciplinary approach contributes to health psychology and design management, potentially enhancing lives and athletic performance of individuals with T1D while inspiring innovations in diabetes care and physical activity promotion.

    Development and Operationalisation of Local Sustainability Indicators - A Global South Perspective on Data Challenges and Opportunities for GIScience
    (Schloss Dagstuhl- Leibniz-Zentrum fur Informatik GmbH, Dagstuhl Publishing, 2023) Steiniger, Stefan; Rojas Quezada, Carolina Alejandra; Truffello Robledo, Ricardo Enrique; Barton Jonathan, Richard
    Evaluating and monitoring the sustainable development of nations and cities requires sets of indicators. Such indicator sets should measure equity, health, environmental, or governmental progress or recess - among other sustainability aspects. In 2015 the United Nations ratified 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) assessed through 231 indicators. However, other - local - sets of indicators have been developed too. In this paper we review geodata challenges that emerged when we developed four sustainability indicator sets in Chile. Faced challenges include (geo)data availability and data representativeness, among others. We analyse how GIScience knowledge has contributed to indicator development and outline three priority research topics: (i) updating indicators based on automated processes, while respecting representativeness, (ii) tools for planning scenario generation, and (iii) methods for short- and long-term forecasting.

    Issues of Temporality - Paradoxes and Challenges of Modern Heritage INTRODUCTION TO THE SESSION
    (Wiley, 2008) Torrent, Horacio; VandenHeuvel, D; Mesman, M; Quist, W; Lemmens, B
    This article deals with the problem of the imperial intervention of the emperor Constantine in Church matters and proposes a reconsideration of the active measures that he takes to favour the Christian Church. The paper presents a wider scope of the sources: on the one hand it re-examines the Christian ones, but above all, it adds others that, although they are temporally further away from Constantine, give a more complete approach of the role of the Roman emperor as head of the Empire and the specific functions he had to fulfil as pontifex maximus. The first part of the article covers the personal and institutional background of the emperor -that will help to situate him in his particular circumstances- and the second one re-evaluates specific and paradigmatic examples of the problem under consideration.

    Weather on other worlds: BD variability and the VVV
    (Wiley, 2014) Kurtev, R.; Metchev, S.; Heinze, A.; Gromadzki, M.; Ivanov, V. D.; Minniti, D.; Beamin Muhlenbrock, Juan Carlos; Borissova, J.; Mateus, A; GregorioHetem, J; Fernandes, RC
    Various evidences point to the presence of clouds in ultra-cool atmospheres. An important ambiguity remains as to whether all variability in ultra-cool dwarfs is caused by patchy clouds, or other fenomena like magnetic activity and auroras. Simultaneous multi-wavelength photometric and/or spectroscopic monitoring could help to reveal this enigma.
