Resumen
This study aims to relate Social Skills (HS), Academic Expectations and Adaptation to University, as well as to verify the impact of the variables HS and Academic Expectations in University Adaptation. The participants were 177 students from public and private institutions of several courses and periods, ages ranging from 17 to 44, of which 71.2% were women. The instruments used were the Social Skills Inventory (SSI), the Academic Involvement Questionnaire (AIQ) and the Academic Experiences Questionnaire (AEQ). There was a positive correlation between the total score of the AIQ and AEQ, but there was no correlation between the total score of SSI with the total scores of the AIQ and AEQ. The results demonstrated a predictive relationship between Social Skills and Academic Expectations total scores, explaining together 4.8% of Academic Adaptation.

Resumen
Motorcycle accidents are one of the most important road safety issues worldwide. There is a lack of specific researches about the characteristics of the scooter-motorcycle accidents, motivated by the absence not only of a precise definition and but also by a properly identification of the different type of two-wheeled vehicles within the accident´s database. The aim of this study is to determine the characteristics of the 293 scooter-motorcycle drivers deceased in Spain in the period 2006 to 2011. According to the nature of the variables involved were performed descriptive and association analysis. The results of the analysis enable the identification some of the main human factors associated with the fatal accidents of scooter-motorcycle drivers.

Resumen
Results on suicidal risk assessed in a sample composed of 1567 adolescent students (both sexes, mean age= 15) are presented. Participants lived in different regions of Argentina: Catamarca, Tucumán and Buenos Aires (Mar del Plata City and Buenos Aires City). Data were gathered by the Argentinian version of the Inventory for Suicidal Orientations (ISO – 30). 11.5% of students in high suicidal risk was detected in Buenos Aires City, while 12.8% was verified in San Miguel de Tucumán City. 5.9 % of high risk was assessed in Mar del Plata City, and 15% in different small towns of Catamarca. Being female and living in small towns appear as risk factors.

Resumen
This study characterized the psychopathological risk factor in suicide attempts assisted in the emergency service of a general hospital in Jujuy, Argentina. The study was of the epidemiological type, of transversal-descriptive design. The data sources were psychological assists records during 2007-2008 and 2011-2012. Of total suicide attempts (N = 481), 19.54% had attempted suicide previously, while 28.07% had diagnosis of mental disorder, of which 56.30% were receiving treatment at the time of suicide attempt. Mood disorders, especially depressives, and Substance-related disorders were the most frequent diagnoses. Significant differences according to demographic markers (sex-age) that should be considered in future studies were found. The results showed that the psychopathological suicide risk factor is much less prevalent in the local casuistry compared to reports in foreign populations. The findings question the importance of psychopathological risk factor in suicide attempts.

Resumen
This research is part of an investigation of major proportions in which a systemic modelis applied mainly in panic disorders.The “equation resistance to change” (ERC) is the synergy between four factors: the degree of severity of symptoms or problems, the frequency of occurrence, the number of symptoms or problems that make satellites and fi nally, the time of onset. The goal is to predict the degree of resistance to change in patients from the fi rst interview, as well as to explain the relapse eff ect and repetition compulsion and thus adapt the strategies and interventions more eff ectively. In this regard, the proposal is to apply the equation to human problems in general. The theoretical support of the equation willbedeveloped on the basis of four variables: cognitive, interactional, emotional and neurophysiological, and as an example of its application, it is displayed on 30 specifi c cases of anxiety disorders and panic attackswith or without agoraphobia and also in social phobias.

Resumen
This work develops different contributions that challenge the epistemological classic notions to dividing fields of knowing in those who are susceptible of being studied and learnt and those who are not, beyond the knowledge considered as such by the Academy or by certain hegemony of knowledge. We propose some perspectives that question this dichotomy and the notion of totality as its basis, as for example, intercultural philosophy, from Raúl Fornet-Betancourt; the rupture like a function of the concept itself, analyzed by Arturo Roig; the consciousness of world product of the simultaneity proposed by Alexander Von Humboldt and finally the notion of the abysmal developed by Boaventura de Sousa Santos. These perspectives contribute to think an "epistemology of the South". However, we expect here to advance from that notion to other, that is postulated as an 'anthropophagic epistemology". So some basic knowledge of the Brazilian avant-garde movement of the 1920s are developed in order to pave the way in the consolidation of this new epistemological perspective.

Resumen
In an age where diversity is increasingly accepted as a value as well as a fact, ethico-political cosmopolitanism should propose a notion of global unity that is composed of rather than imposed on difference. Jacques Derrida and Walter Mignolo offer different versions of this view of cosmopolitanism. Derrida’s version is based on his notion of “democracy to come”. He characterizes this notion as an “unconditional” or “quasi-transcendental” injunction. Mignolo castigates this injunction as an “abstract universal”. He offers instead “a critical and dialogic” view of cosmopolitanism that is based more speci cally on the “colonial difference” or “border thinking” of Latin American subaltern groups. I argue that Derrida’s many implicit and explicit references to “voices” suggest a third alternative. This contender avoids certain problems in Derrida’s and Mignolo’s otherwise compelling views of cosmopolitanism. It also retains the universality of Derrida’s unconditional injunction but on the basis of the sort of worldly immanency urged by Mignolo’s border thinking.

Resumen
The aim of this text is to present the evolution of the relation between the concept of number and magnitude in ancient Greek mathematics. We will briefly revise the Pythagorean program and its crisis with the discovery of incommensurable magnitudes. Next, we move to the work of Eudoxus and present its advances. He improved the Pythagorean theory of proportions, so that it could also treat incommensurable magnitudes. We will see that, as the time passed by, the existence of incommensurable magnitudes was no longer something strange. Already in the period of Plato and Aristotle, their existence was common place: up to the point of being considered absurd that all magnitudes were commensurable. Aristotle criticized the Pythagorean program and defended that, though belonging to the same category (quantity), number and magnitude are of distinct species: number is discrete and magnitude is continuous. We finish by presenting briefly how the concept of number was amplified throughout the centuries until it came also to include the notion of continuity.

Resumen
In this note I discuss some issues around the law of Identity of Indiscernibles and, above all, its difference with the so-called law of indiscernibilty of identicals. In this way I distinguish between the notions identity, sameness and equality, through a phenomenological discussion and using the key idea of intentionality. In order to formulate the Leibnizian law of Identity of Indiscernibles, and examine its validity, we need higher order logic. I will give semantic rules for a second-order logic with identity in the framework of the dialogical logic, introduced by P. Lorenzen. Then I will demonstrate the validity of the law of Identity of Indiscernibles by means of the introduced logic.
