Abstract

Los enemigos en casa is a comedy written by Lope de Vega that has been scarcely studied. The plot focuses on the enmity among two sevillian families and the serious problems it causes to a couple of lovers belonging to the rival fa­milies. The article examines how Lope dramatizes intergenerational discord, showing paternal authoritarism’s excess, and most of all, the way it states the improper idea of familiar honor that’s displayed by paternal uncles, along the same lines of the arcaical role of patruus.

Abstract

School violence alludes to peer bullying and aggression in school. The field of communication has studied school violence by analyzing the influence of media and interpersonal relationships on aggressive behaviors. This article provides a perspective on school violence and concentrates on determining the influence of interpersonal communication with parents and teachers on adolescent aggressors and victims in school contexts. A non-experimental correlational-transverse design was used with a sample of 1,082 adolescents (M=15,61; DT=0,90). Three reliable scales were implemented to assess adolescent aggression and parental and pedagogical communication. Findings indicate that aggressions among adolescents at school and the interpersonal communication with parents and teachers present differences associated with gender (p=0,00). At the family level, it was found that offensive communication among parents and children (?=0,225; p=0,00) predicts an increment on school victimization. At the pedagogical level, it revealed that teacher communication intended to discipline students (?=?0,297; p=0,00) and make them see the importance of school and learning (?=?0,120; p=0,04) predicts a decrease in aggressive behavior among adolescents and school victimization. These new findings in education evidence the need to strengthen students’ interpersonal communication with their parents and teachers to obtain better results when implementing strategies to intervene and prevent school violence.

Abstract

Currently, the issue of staff well-being is addressed from many perspectives of the labor spectrum, but in the background of these approaches the intention to improve the rest conditions of health workers and thus influence their family relationships can be found. The ways in which health professionals perceive and take advantage of these rest periods and how they influence their family dynamics are an important part of the challenges of managing health personnel in institutions. Despite the current working conditions and demands, rest and family relationships stand as protective psychosocial factors for the well-being of the nursing professional. Regarding family relationships, the work-family conflict is the main problem on which the efforts of the institutions should be focused to improve the status of their professionals.
