Programs of curricula diversification constitute a support measure to diversity with a long trajectory. Currently, with the application of LOMCE, these programs will become extinct and will be substituted by the Programs of Improvement of Learning and Performance. It is, then, agood moment for analysis of the programs. The aim of the article is to study the appropriation and implementation of the programs in secondary schools of Palma (Mallorca). Within a larger research, framed in the Spanish Government research project CSO2012-31575, developed bydifferent universities, the study stage explained here is about the reflection on discourses and positions of, first, teachers and orienteering teams, and, second, students of the program or with a similar educational trajectory. Methodology is qualitative, including interviews and observational techniques. Main data results underpin a positive balance of the program, highlighting the methodology and the group format.
Los programas de diversificación curricular constituyen una de las medidas de atención a la diversidad con mayor trayectoria. Actualmente, con la aplicación de la LOMCE, se encuentran en vías de desaparición y sustitución por los Programas de Mejora del Aprendizaje y del Rendimiento. Se trata, por tanto, de un buen momento para hacer balance de los programas. El objetivo del artículo es analizar la apropiación e implementación de los programas en institutos de enseñanza secundaria en el municipio de Palma (Mallorca). Dentro de un estudio de mayor alcance, enmarcado en el proyecto de investigación CSO2012-31575, llevado a cabo desde varias universidades, la fase de estudio recogida aquí es la reflexión sobre los discursos y posicionamientos, por un lado, del profesorado y equipos de orientación, y, por otro, de alumnado participante en el programa o con una trayectoria educativa muy similar. La metodología es cualitativa, incluyendo entrevistas y técnicas de observación. Los principales resultados apuntan a un balance positivo del programa en los centros estudiados, tanto por parte de los profesionales educativos como del alumnado, destacando especialmente la metodología docente como la composición del grupo. ; Programs of curricula diversification constitute a support measure to diversity with a long trajectory.

Purpose: Research-supported family programmes are proven to be effective in reducing dysfunctional behaviours in youth. A fundamental role is played by professionals with high competence levels and a positive attitude to evidence-based practice (EBP). The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of prior training for the facilitators of the PCF-AFECT, in order to ascertain whether it led to improvements in their competence levels and whether favourable attitudes to evidence-based practice were associated with higher competence levels. Method: A quantitative method was used, with a sample of professionals from Spain (N = 150). Results: Results showed that the training was effective in the case of four categories of professional competencies. Favourable attitudes to EBP were associated with clusters of professionals with higher competencies. Discussion: Both findings contribute scientifically to the identification of the core components or gold standards of training that are needed for the facilitators of research-supported family programmes.
In social sciences and education, taking a gender perspective is key to achieve full equality and a real democratic society. One of the most important factors lies precisely in the attitudes and self-awareness of the gender perspective by educators and other professionals in the field. This paper analyzes the extent to which the gender perspective is integrated in the modules and courses of Social Education and Pedagogy undergraduate studies, at the University of the Balearic Islands. To do so, mixed methods are used, mixing the documentary and statistical analysis of the 64 course guides of the undergraduate studies and the qualitative analysis of students focus groups with the aim of capturing their views and perception. The results show that the use of inclusive and non-androcentric language still needs improvement. Likewise, there is a need of incorporation and mainstreaming of the gender perspective in these education undergraduate studies. Specifically, gender should be considered in the competences the studies promote, the content and evaluation of the courses, as well as the references, including references where women are represented. Finally, the paper discusses some recommendations to enhance gender perspective in teaching at university. ; En el ámbito social y educativo, la perspectiva de género es uno de los elementos clave para conseguir la plena igualdad y una sociedad realmente democrática. Uno de los factores más importantes reside precisamente en las actitudes y la autoconciencia de la perspectiva de género por parte de los educadores y otros profesionales que trabajan en el campo de la educación. Con el fin de comprender cómo funciona el proceso de adquisición de la perspectiva de género de los futuros profesionales de la educación, este trabajo analiza en qué medida se incorpora la perspectiva de género en las asignaturas de los grados de Educación Social y Pedagogía de la Universitat de les Illes Balears.

AbstractThe development of language indicating the emergence of thinking about the thoughts of self and others has been scarcely studied in Spanish‐speaking children. For this reason, we studied the development of mental state language and various indicators of language development in 25 Spanish‐speaking children assessed at 3, 3, 4, 4, and 5 years of age. We coded and categorized the 40,250 utterances children produced during the five time points, 1202 (3.01%) of which had mental terms. In this sample, mental state language in Spanish children developed with a similar timeline and patterns as described in English‐speaking children. However, several findings were novel for studies of mental state language. The general indexes of syntactic development did not correlate with the production of mental terms. The Index of Lexical Diversity was associated with the frequency of references to verbs of desire. The results of regression analyses suggest that not only the development of subordinate sentences with complement is associated with genuine mental references to desires and beliefs, but the development of lexical skills as well.

Purpose – This research assesses the predictive capacity of key factors in the development of family competences: parent-children relationship, family involvement, family resilience and positive parenting. It also aims to establish which are the most discriminating factors between the groups showing the most and the least prosocial behaviours.
Design/methodology/approach – The study involves a longitudinal study of one child from 181 families; 155 families in the experimental group and 26 in the control group. Both boys and girls are included and their ages range from 8 to 14 years. The instruments employed are all validated for use with a Spanish population and include Karol Kumpfer's questionnaires on family competence and the BASC questionnaire.
Findings – All of the factors analysed, with the exception of family involvement, proved to be predictive for prosocial behaviour, and the most discriminating among these were: parent-children relationship, family resilience and positive parenting.
Originality/value – One key issue in family prevention programmes is the development of prosocial behaviour. In this sense, the research developed here aims at highlighting protective factors as key to developing a prosocial behaviour.
