A Case Analysis Methodology to Guide Decision Making in the Schooling Context
(Springer Cham, 2023) Marchant Araya, María Paola; Förster Marín, Carla
This chapter addresses a look at the analysis of problems in educational contexts oriented towards evidence-based decision making. Its purpose is to provide management and research teams with a tool to systematize information from an institution, a program or project, articulate said information with the conceptual frameworks associated with the subject, and raise critical knots based on reflective analysis and propose solutions and actions for change. This method defines three stages: the construction of the case, the analysis, and the improvement proposal. For each stage, its characteristics, how to carry them out and a real example are developed. Finally, some ethical considerations that must be safeguarded are indicated, what elements the report must have and some limitations to consider.

A Network Approach to the Formation of Self-assembled Teams
(2020) Ichhaporia, R.; Gomez Zara, Diego Alonso; DeChurch, L.; Contractor, N.
Which individuals in a network make the most appealing teammates? Which invitations are most likely to be accepted? And which are most likely to be rejected? This study explores the factors that are most likely to explain the selection, acceptance, and rejection of invitations in self-assembling teams. We conducted a field study with 780 participants using an online platform that enables people to form teams. Participants completed an initial survey assessing traits, relationships, and skills. Next, they searched for and invited others to join a team. Recipients could then accept, reject, or ignore invitations. Using Exponential Random Graph Models (ERGMs), we studied how traits and social networks influence teammate choices. Our results demonstrated that (a) agreeable leaders with high psychological collectivism send invitations most frequently, (b) previous collaborators, leaders, competent workers, females, and younger individuals receive the most invitations, and (c) rejections are concentrated in the hands of a few. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

A Situated Approach to Neurorights Legislation in Chile
(Springer, 2025) Fuentes Muñoz, Jorge Ignacio; Ramos Vergara, Paulina; Wajnerman Paz, Abel; López Silva, Pablo; Álamos Grau, María Florencia
Some have advocated for creating new fundamental neurorigths with universal validity such that national legislations worldwide should adapt to enforce them. Others have brought into question such a movement warning against rights inflation. We argue that we should avoid introducing new fundamental rights in any legal framework whenever possible. We call this the situated approach since whether it is possible to protect the mind without introducing new rights is a question that should be asked in each legal framework separately. We show that in the case of Chile, that can be done, and we propose how. Specifically, we provide a critical assessment of local regulatory proposals and show that, as a result of the local legislative debate, they have evolved from a universalist stance towards a much more situated view. However, we suggest that in their current state, they still are insufficiently grounded in the Chilean legal system, which we regard as providing enough protection against neurotechnological harm in most relevant cases.
A structured methodology for improving the owner-contractor relationship in construction projects
(Routledge. Taylor & Francis LTD, 1999) Serpell Bley, Alfredo
Given the complexity of the relationship between owners and contractors in construction projects, research work has been carried out to identify mechanisms to facilitate the understanding between these parts. Based on the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) approach, an exploratory study on the form of rationalising this relationship has been conducted and its preliminary results are presented in this paper. Within this research effort, a model that puts emphasis in the factors that, depending on the type of contract, can improve the performance of the project has been developed. This model helps to structure a set of information through a matrix scheme that allows the weighting of each relevant characteristic of the commercial relationship between the client and the contractor with the purpose of prioritising between them. The scheme uses a cross-impact approach and provides a sequential methodology that conditions the achievement of the owner's objectives to the actions of the contractor and to his own key contract management elements that influence the contractor's behaviour. It is proposed here that this methodology could constitute a useful decision tool for the owner when developing and executing a construction project.

A Woman Artist in the Neoliberal Chilean Jungle
(Palgrave Macmillan, London, 2017) Contreras Lorenzini, María José; Diamond, Elin; Varney, Denise; Amich, Candice
One of the perdurable effects of Pinochet’s dictatorship in Chile is that adherence to Friedman’s and von Hayek’s neoliberal ideas of freedom, based on free markets and the withdrawal of state public-sector services, has been upheld by postdictatorship governments that have maintained and even radicalized neoliberalism by, in part, denying the atrocities committed by the Pinochet regime. As a theatre director and performer, María José Contreras Lorenzini challenges the government’s rhetoric of reconciliation and consequent amnesia by exposing forgotten documents in the historical record: testimonies, autobiographical stories, familial archives. Her performance Habeas Corpus, at the Palacio de Tribunales de Santiago, transforms an emblematic juridical enclave into an intersubjective, intercorporeal space, allowing spectators, through the circulation of affective memory, to recover political awareness and agency

Acrylamide formation and reduction in fried potatoes
(CRC Press, 2009) Pedreschi Plasencia, Franco
In April 2002, Swedish researchers shocked the food safety world when they presented preliminary ndings of acrylamide in some fried and baked foods, most notably potato chips and French fries, at levels of 30-2300 µm/kg. Reports of the presence of acrylamide in a range of fried and oven-cooked foods have caused worldwide concern because this compound has been classi ed as probably carcinogenic in humans with signi cant toxicological effects namely neurotoxic and mutagenic effects (Rosen and Hellenäs 2002, Tareke et al. 2002).

Afterword charting the path forward: Teacher education, practice, and pedagogy
(Taylor and Francis, 2024) Veliz, L.; Barahona, Malba; Darwin, S.
As we conclude this volume, it is useful to critically reflect on the analytical journey we have undertaken throughout these 14 chapters. This book sought not only to provide a critical examination of the contemporary state of English language teaching (ELT) and teacher education in Chile but also to engage in a deeper and more meaningful dialogue about the possibilities for transformative practice in this vital and largely unexplored educational space in the country.

Air mass movement across Earth: Highways for particle transport in the past, present and future
(éditions Quae, 2025) Lambert, Fabrice
Understanding modern air mass circulation patterns is fundamental to comprehending how Earth's atmosphere functions and influences microparticle transport pathways. These patterns, driven by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface and the rotation of the planet, create distinct wind systems that transport heat, moisture, and particles across the globe. This chapter delves into the primary circulation and wind patterns that shape the dispersal of particles. Knowledge of dispersal is founded primarily on studies of mineral dust aerosols. However, it is well known that spores, microbes, and viruses can attach to mineral dust particles through various mechanisms, including electrostatic forces and physical entrapment within the dust matrix (Smith et al., 2011). Furthermore, carbonaceous materials, organic compounds, smoke, and even sea salt can carry microorganisms. The range of processes of emission of particles that harbor living microorganisms, including dust and sea-spray emissions, emissions from other surface waters and via fires, are covered primarily in Chapters 3, 4, 7 and 8. The association of microorganisms with dust or other particles may contribute to their survival (Noda et al., 2023), which can be assessed from various approaches as described in Chapter 6. Nevertheless, the emissions processes all contribute to assuring that microorganisms can ride the dust transport systems. By exploring these dust transport systems, we gain insight into the mechanisms that govern atmospheric dynamics and their critical role in the dispersal of spores, microbes, and viruses.

Alcohol : Psychosocial Effects.
(Elsevier Inc., 2012) Sher, Kenneth J.; Vergés, Álvaro; Winograd, Rachel Pearl
Alcohol use has significant effects on behavior, these can be both acute (e.g., drunken comportment) and chronic (e.g., alcohol-induced depression). However, it is well established that there are large, individual differences in how drinkers react to alcohol. Additionally, different types of drinking contexts tend to elicit different effects and are associated with different harms. Consequently, characterizing the effects of alcohol consumption requires an understanding of the drinker and the drinking context, in addition to the drink (i.e., beverage alcohol) itself.
