Periodismo Especializado y Periodismo de Proximidad conforman un tándem que puede reforzar un tratamiento de calidad de las fuentes periodísticas. La posibilidad de informar de temas cercanos a los ciudadanos, de ser testigo directo de los acontecimientos, de contrastar con más de una fuente favorece el rigor, la veracidad y la democracia informativa. Este punto de la investigación contempla el análisis específico del uso de las fuentes, tipos, características y protagonismo en el ámbito de la Política Municipal, de la Microeconomía y de la Cultura Local, secciones en las que impera el dominio de la fuente institucional gubernamental.

Cuando la segunda generación no se queda atrás: evidencias sobre el rendimiento académico de los hijos de inmigrantes en el caso andaluz

¿Desventaja académica de los hijos de inmigrantes? La excepción canaria en el contexto español

Many international studies have pointed out the under-representation of women on Editorial Boards of both Science and Social Science journals. Their presence as Editorial Board members is relevant as they influence and reflect the policies of the journal itself. This study analyses the participation of women on the Editorial Boards of the Spanish Language and Linguistics journals in SCOPUS. To this end, 54 journals indexed in SCOPUS were analysed, thus discriminating the gender of all members and the role that each member plays on the Editorial Board. The results show no significant differences in the participation of men and women in these Editorial Boards. It was not found any evidence of gender bias in these journals.

Science’s constant development makes it necessary to carry out studies that allow us to understand its global development, as well as the level of development of each field and the scientific production of a certain geographical area. The bibliometric study presented focuses on the scientific production published in Latin American journals within the Business, Management and Accounting (BMA) category of the Scimago Journal Rank and the information stored in the SCOPUS database. Thus, the information regarding the documents indexed in the SCOPUS database was downloaded. The patterns of document production per journal and per year were identified based on a frequency count. The most productive countries, the degree of collaboration and the type of collaboration were also identified. An increase in co-authorship and collaboration rates was pointed out, as well as an increase in international collaboration. There has been a considerable increase in the production between 1996 and 2010. Although the collaboration rates have increased, this collaboration is mainly maintained between Latin American countries. El desarrollo constante de la ciencia hace necesario realizar estudios que permitan conocer su desarrollo global y por campos o sectores geográficos. Se presenta un estudio bibliométrico sobre la producción científica publicada en las revistas latinoamericanas de la categoría Business, Management and Accounting (BMA) del Scimago Journal Rank y con información almacenada en la base de datos SCOPUS. Para llevar a cabo este estudio, se descargaron de SCOPUS los datos relativos a los documentos indexados en dicha base de datos; posteriormente, y a partir del recuento de frecuencias, se identificaron los patrones de producción de documentos por revista y por año, los países más productivos, los indicadores de colaboración en la autoría y el tipo de colaboración. Se halló un incremento en la coautoría y los índices de colaboración, así como en la colaboración internacional. La producción ha tenido un considerable aumento en el periodo comprendido entre los años 1996 y 2010. Si bien los índices de colaboración han aumentado, esta colaboración se efectúa, principalmente, entre países latinoamericanos.

Critical thinking is a skill that people must develop to navigate skillfully the information they receive through media channels. The cultivation of this skill must begin in the early stages of education and continue uninterrupted through the completion of academic training. For this reason, the search for tools to promote critical thinking in the classroom is crucial. To address this situation, it is essential that the initial training of educators provides them with valuable resources, offering them a tool for supporting critical thinking in their own future classrooms. This paper presents an activity to cultivate statistical graphic critical thinking (SGCT task) of preservice teachers, offering them a tool for their future teaching role. This approach is implemented dynamically, incorporating real‐world information and simulating individuals' everyday situations. The proposal, implemented with a cohort of 60 preservice teachers, has proven beneficial in improving the critical thinking skills of participating preservice teachers.
