AN EXTENSION OF LEISERSON'S FORMULATION OF THE PROCESS BY WHICH ACTORS BALANCE VALUE AND POWER CONSIDERATIONS IN COALITION FORMATION IS PRESENTED. TWO COMPONENTS OF VALUE (IDELOGY AND INTERESTS) ARE CONSIDERED. THE TWO COMPONENT VERSION OF THE MODEL IS EVALUATED BY DATA PROVIDED BY PARTICIPANTS IN A SIMULATED INTERRELIGIOUS DECISION-MAKING COUNCIL.
Mucho antes de que la campaña para renovar la ayuda a los Contras comenzara en enero de 1986, se estableció que los Sandinistas eran "los muchachos malos". La imagen negativa de los Sandinistas se remonta a la cobertura que hizo la prensa sobre la misma revolución de 1979 y fue evidente, también, en la cobertura que hizo de las elecciones nicaraguenses de 1984. Es notorio que los opositores a la ayuda a los Contras estaban trabajando en condiciones de desventaja. Si todo el mundo coincidía en que los Sandinistas no eran beneficiosos para Estados Unidos, entonces, la atención recayó en apoyar a los Contras. En verdad, la imagen de los Contras que promovió la prensa norteamericana en este tiempo era mucho más fluída y aunque ninguno de los periódicos estudiados apoyaba la renovación de la ayuda, la presentación que de ellos se hacía era más caritativa que lo que parecía merecer su origen, sus tácticas militares o sus verdaderos triunfos.

Postoperative cognitive impairment is among the most common medical complications associated with surgical interventions - particularly in elderly patients. In our aging society, it is an urgent medical need to determine preoperative individual risk prediction to allow more accurate cost-benefit decisions prior to elective surgeries. So far, risk prediction is mainly based on clinical parameters. However, these parameters only give a rough estimate of the individual risk. At present, there are no molecular or neuroimaging biomarkers available to improve risk prediction and little is known about the etiology and pathophysiology of this clinical condition. In this short review, we summarize the current state of knowledge and briefly present the recently started BioCog project (Biomarker Development for Postoperative Cognitive Impairment in the Elderly), which is funded by the European Union. It is the goal of this research and development (R&D) project, which involves academic and industry partners throughout Europe, to deliver a multivariate algorithm based on clinical assessments as well as molecular and neuroimaging biomarkers to overcome the currently unsatisfying situation.
