Landscape influences bat suppression of pine processionary moth: Implications f...
Augusto, Ana Margarida; Pereira, S.; Rodrigues, S.; Marques, F.; Aizpurua, O.; Alberdi, A.; Jones, G.; Razgour, O.; Marques, T.A.; Russo, D.; Rebelo, H.Bats provide important ecosystem services, particularly in agriculture, yet integrating bat management into conservation plans remains challenging. Some landscape features considerably influence bat presence, diversity, and ecosystem service provision. Understanding the relationship between landscape structure, composition, pest suppression, and ecosystem services is crucial. We modelled areas where bats most e...
Propriedades psicométricas da escala de inteligência emocional de Wong e Law em...
Valente, S.; Dominguez-Lara, S.; Cristóvão, A.,; Rebelo, H.; Amaro, P.,; Lourenço, A.A inteligência emocional é considerada uma competência importante. No entanto, em Portugal, são poucos os instrumentos que avaliam este constructo em professores. Considerando que a Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS) é uma escala com boas propriedades psicométricas que avalia a perceção da inteligência emocional, o presente estudo teve por objetivo analisar as propriedades psicométricas da WLEIS ...
Enhancing critical thinking: Exploring the impact of blended learning on veteri...
Payan-Carreira, R.; Sacau, A.; Ferreira, D.; Rebelo, H.; Sebastião, L.The Think4Jobs Project, available at https://think4jobs.uowm.gr/, aimed to introduce blended curricula focusing on critical thinking (CT) into apprenticeships and courses, and to evaluate the resulting changes in CT skills and dispositions (Rebelo et al., 2023). This initiative targeted the enhancement of critical thinking alongside the core knowledge proposed for the courses. In the academic year 2022/23, thre...
Vegetation canopy height shapes bats’ occupancy: a remote sensing approach
Martins, F.C.; Godinho, S.; Guiomar, N.; Medinas, D.; Rebelo, H.; Segurado, P.; Marques, J.T.Anthropogenic activities have significantly altered land cover on a global scale. These changes often have a negative effect on biodiversity limiting the distribution of species. The extent of the effect on species’ distribution depends on the landscape composition and configuration at a local and landscape level. To better understand this effect on a large scale, we evaluated how land cover and vegetation stru...
Developing Critical Thinking in Higher Education: Is There a Reason to Change?
Rebelo, H.; Sebastião, L.; Ferreira, D.; Payan-Carreira, R.Competency-based veterinary education has been proposed for long, but its implementation accelerated in recent years. It endorses the development of specific abilities, that are identified, and needed for a wide range of professional tasks. Nevertheless, the University's adaptation to the proposed competency-based framework is not always easy. It often depends on economic and administrative constraints and requ...
Bat diversity boosts ecosystem services: Evidence from pine processionary moth ...
Augusto, Ana Margarida; Raposeira, H.; Horta, P.; Mata, V.A.; Aizpurua, O.; Alberdi, A.; Jones, G.; Razgour, O.; Santos, S.A.P.; Russo, D.; Rebelo, H.Coniferous forests contribute to the European economy; however, they have experienced a decline since the late 1990s due to an invasive pest known as the pine processionary moth, Thaumetopoea pityocampa. The impacts of this pest are increasingly exacerbated by climate change. Traditional control strategies involving pesticides have had negative effects on public health and the environment. Instead, forest manag...

Development and Validation of a Critical Thinking Assessment-Scale Short Form.
Payan Carreira, R; Sacau-Fontenla, A; Rebelo, H.; Sebastião, L; Pnevmatikos, DThis study presents and validates the psychometric characteristics of a short form of the Critical Thinking Self-assessment Scale (CTSAS). The original CTSAS was composed of six subscales representing the six components of Facione’s conceptualisation of critical thinking. The CTSAS short form kept the same structures and reduced the number of items from 115 in the original version, to 60. The CTSAS short form w...
From the gaps/needs to the e+ qolmi course
Pires, Heldemerina; Candeias, Adelinda; Rebelo, H.; Franco, Vítor; Melo, Madalena; Grácio, Luísa; Saragoça, Maria JoséThe ENABLIN+ project is a European partnership within the Leonardo Life Long Learning Programme. The project´s aim is to develop a system of in-service training, interdisciplinary, where professionals and parents learn together, with the aim of enhancing quality of life of the children with very complex and intensive support needs. ENABLIN+ focus on the improvement of inclusion, communication, behaviour managem...
