The project aims to develop a systemic solution for older people, which is able to prolong their functional and cognitive capacity by empowering, stimulating and unobtrusively monitoring their daily activities. The project joins together the concept of prevention, centred on the older population with a constructive interaction between mind, body and social engagement.
The goal of this project is to study how children with and without SLI understand spoken sentences in real time. The project is based on use of the eye-tracking technique during the performance of tasks that affect understanding of sentences' lexical and morphosyntactic aspects.
Chronic, recurrent pain is a major problem for our society and its treatment is challenging. In children, who are the target of our proposal, one of the most common pain problems is recurrent abdominal pain (RAP, or DAR, in Catalan). It can affect up to 12% of the child population, impairing the daily lives of both the children themselves and their families. The current system can offer no effective treatment for these children and their families. Consequently, we propose our online intervention, DARWeb, for people in this situation.
This project focuses on the senior co-housing movement, a form of cooperative housing created by and for senior citizens as an alternative to nursing homes, family care and ageing at home. MOVICOMA is the first study of the senior co-housing movement in Spain.
