En los últimos años ha aumentado el interés por el estudio de la ciberviolencia en la pareja, sin embargo es necesario examinar la metodología de investigación que sustenta las evidencias obtenidas hasta el momento. Este artículo presenta una revisión sistemática de la literatura científica que analiza 30 instrumentos de medida de ciberviolencia en la pareja de adolescentes y jóvenes adultos utilizados a lo largo de estos años. Los principales resultados muestran una elevada pluralidad metodológica, conceptual y terminológica, observándose un reducido número de instrumentos con suficientes garantías psicométricas. Predominan los trabajos de procedencia estadounidense y, entre los instrumentos aplicados en muestras españolas, destaca una infrarrepresentación de indicadores de ciberviolencia de tipo sexual, lo que limita la comprensión de esta problemática. Esta investigación aporta información sobre el estado actual en el estudio de la ciberviolencia en la pareja y pone de relieve deficiencias metodológicas en la construcción del conocimiento en este campo de estudio. Este trabajo permite una mejor comprensión de la disparidad de resultados señalada por investigaciones previas, especialmente referidas a prevalencia, frecuencia y diferencias de género en este tipo de comportamientos violentos, además de sentar las bases para abordar el fenómeno desde el rigor científico. The interest for the study of the cyber dating abuse has increased in the last years; however, it is necessary to examine the research methodology that supports the evidence obtained so far. This paper presents a systematic review of the scientific literature that analyzes 30 measuring instruments of cyber dating abuse in adolescent and young adults used along these years. The main results show a methodological, conceptual and terminological plurality, observing a small number of instruments with sufficient psychometric guarantees. The instruments come mostly from the United States, and of the instruments applied to Spanish samples, few include indicators of sexual cyber dating abuse, which limits the understanding of this problem. This research provides information on the current status of the study of cyber dating abuse and highlights methodological shortcomings in the construction of knowledge in this field of study. This study allows a better understanding of the disparity of results indicated by previous research, especially referring to prevalence, frequency and gender differences in this type of violent behavior, as well as laying the foundations for addressing the phenomenon from scientific rigor.

Emergency Civil Commitment: Predicting Hospital Violence from Behavior in the Community

The authors investigated whether violence to others in the community relates to violent behavior in the first 72 hours of hospitalization. They reviewed emergency room records, and they concurrently reviewed and monitored hospital violence for 100 patients committed to a state hospital. Patients committed after assaults on others were more likely than other patients to threaten or assault others during the first day of hospitalization, but not later. Independent of the reason for commitment, manic patients were more likely to be violent. The implications of these results for the validity of psychiatrists’ predictions of violence are discussed.

Task Priority

In this symposium we present the history, current status and challenges of the Strategic Task Overload Management (STOM) model of task switching, positing that parameters of priority, interest difficulty, salience and time-on-task are the factors that drive switching. We present four papers examining extensions of the model. In the first presentation, Wickens & Gutzwiller describe in detail the nature and background of the five parameters and their roots in models of scanning. In the second presentation, Gutzwiller & Sitzman consider the effects of multitasking and priority on task selection. Then Gilbert & Wickens show the extension of STOM to business tasks by presenting results of an experiment that systematically evaluate the role of task priority and goal setting. In the final presentation, Barg-Walkow & Rogers demonstrate the relevance of STOM to vitally important task management in the emergency room.

The ability to accurately predict violence and other forms of seriously antisocial behavior would provide important societal benefits, and there is substantial enthusiasm for the potential predictive accuracy of neuroimaging techniques. We review the current status of violence prediction using actuarial and clinical methods, and assess the current state of neuroprediction. We then outline a number of questions that need to be addressed by future studies of neuroprediction if they are to be successfully translated into public policy.

An examination of some specialized lunar and planetary ephemerides has revealed inconsistencies in the adopted planetary masses, the presence of non-gravitational terms, and some outright numerical errors. They should be considered of temporary usefulness only, subject to subsequent amendment as required for the interpretation of observational data.

Electron Microscopes

Solid state x-ray sensing systems have been used for many years in conjunction with scanning and transmission electron microscopes. Such systems conveniently provide users with elemental area maps and quantitative chemical analyses of samples. Improvements on these tools are currently sought in the following areas: sensitivity at longer and shorter x-ray wavelengths and minimization of noise-broadening of spectral lines. In this paper, we review basic limitations and recent advances in each of these areas. Throughout the review, we emphasize the systems nature of the problem. That is. limitations exist not only in the sensor elements but also in the preamplifier/amplifier chain and in the interfaces between these components.Solid state x-ray sensors usually function by way of incident photons creating electron-hole pairs in semiconductor material. This radiation-produced mobile charge is swept into external circuitry by electric fields in the semiconductor bulk.
