Interoception is critical to health regulation and is often disrupted in individuals with chronic pain (ICPs). Interoceptive sensibility (IS)—the self-reported experience and relationship toward internal states—includes skills such as sensing, interpreting, and using bodily information for self-regulation. Current studies on IS and chronic pain (CP) adjustment are scarce, and how the interplay between different...
The aim of this paper is to analyse the demographic and migratory dynamics in the Portuguese island regions of Madeira and the Azores over the last two decades. The article begins with a brief overview of the historical and geographical context, which is essential for understanding the factors that shape population evolution and are reflected in the current situation. Beyond physical constraints such as insular...
Introduction: Unplanned pregnancies are a common occurrence, even in countries with easy access to contraception. This situation is closely associated, on the one hand, with abortion and, on the other, with adverse consequences for mothers and children. This research estimates the quantitative importance of this phenomenon and analyses the sociodemographic factors with which it is associated. Material and Metho...
Social anxiety is significantly prevalent among college students and frequently leads to school dropout and academic underachievement. Since university counseling services are often overburdened, a mobile-based cognitive behavioral intervention was designed to support students attending therapy for social anxiety and therapists. Our main goals are to evaluate usability and acceptability of this technological sy...
The innovation of pedagogical practices is a challenge currently faced by higher education, in which the student is the main actor in the learning process. The aim of this project is to develop collaborative work, using multimodality in communication, adapted to the professional context, as a strategy to foster the learning of foreign languages. The JASM project ([Janela aberta sobre o mundo].Open Window onto t...
Habitat loss and overfishing are the most significant threats to diadromous fish, most of them of high socioeconomic and conservationist importance, such as Alosa alosa, Alosa fallax, Petromyzon marinus and Anguilla anguilla. The main objective of the LIFE Águeda project (LIFE16 ENV/PT/000411) is the removal of hydro-morphological pressures towards the reestablishment of conditions for a good ecological status,...
Background and objective: Bodily experience disturbances are frequent among chronic musculoskeletal pain patients and associated with important pain-related psychosocial outcomes (e.g., disability, quality of life). However, the relationship between bodily experience and the psychological dimensions of chronic pain (e.g., affective, cognitive) has only recently garnered attention. This scoping review aimed to i...
This work aimed to evaluate the sensory characteristics of Bísaro pork loin fed with and without chestnut and commercial pork. Samples of each type of meat were duly identified and cooked in a con-ventional oven until it reached 80 °C in the thermal centre. Then, pieces of 2 cm side were cut, wrap-ped in aluminium foil and adequately codified. Each panellist analysed in two sessions a total of 6 samples of each...
Regulation for hydroelectric production (i.e., hydropeaking) can impact aquatic species life cycle. During 2016–2017, radiotelemetry was used to track 22 Iberian barbels during a 1‐year cycle in a flow regulation scenario. Periodic samples of scales and biometric data were collected in a regulated (hydropeaking regime) and non‐regulated river within the same basin for comparison. Collected tracking, growth and ...
