Adaptación y validación de la Prueba de Imagen Corporal para Personas con Discapacidad Física (PICDF) en una muestra mexicana con amputaciones

Border closure only increased precariousness”
Coordination between actors is crucial to implement regional protocols that respond to current migration phenomena and migrants' health needs. Health policies using a human rights approach are urgently required to respond to migrants' healthcare needs at borders in South America
MAN UP!' On Masculinity and Childhood
This piece sails in time and space, collecting memories in an effort to show instead of tell how masculinity is inculcated in children by parents. I use autoethnography to present scenes collected from three different moments of my life. I reflect on gender norms reproduced as complementary/opposite meanings, in which hierarchy remains, placing men above women
The First Death of My Father
In this autoethnographic essay I reflect on the relationship between hegemonic masculinity and paid work. I draw on my own experience, witnessing my father retire at age 32 because of a mental illness that confined him to our home. I explore his personal despondency at failing to comply with traditional gender roles, as well as our collective family suffering
The Story of a Betrayal
In this essay, I reflect on what happens when professors allow students to express themselves, intellectually, creatively, and emotionally, applying their interpretive skills to achieve this expression. I present, through performance, the results of an exercise that I developed with my undergraduate students in the city of Cordoba, Argentina. I asked them to analyze children's films and then perform this material, inspired by their own analysis. …
We Are the Drama and the Drama Is in Us
In this essay, I reflect on my experience as a social sciences researcher critically analyzing children's movies for more than 10 years. I also reflect on my work as a university professor. This essay is also a play that remains unfinished. I summarize here an experience I have shared with my students since May 2013, in which we co-create the script for a play to criticize, shatter, and rebuild legitimatized social models that have shaped our dre…
It's My Body and My Life
In this essay, we reflect on others' perceptions of women who choose not to be mothers, and our own sensations and feelings in relation to people's judgments about our own decision to remain childfree. We use a specific dynamic that we name dialogued collaborative autoethnography to address our personal stories within the social and cultural context
No Longer a Girl
This autoethnographic paper arises from my interest in studying contemporary masculinities in the city of Córdoba, Argentina. It describes my experience as a female in the masculine space of a karate dojo and is based on records from a martial arts class between 2005 and 2010. I have selected some of the moments that I consider the most significant to convey three elements: (a) life in the dojo, including rituals and specific practices; (b) the e…
I Don't Want to Die Before Visiting Graceland
In this article, we use collaborative autoethnography to reflect on the different perceptions that can exist about the same event. We narrate our shared experience during a violent episode in which issues of race, class, and inequality of opportunities were present, involving not only our minds but also our bodies and emotions. We reflect on the impossibility to remain objective and neutral when observing reality
Discourse and socialization in children ́s cinematographic productions
Understanding that cultural products for children transmit social representations and reproduce specific outlines of attitudes and behaviours, this paper focuses on the gender construction based on specific messages in children ́s films. We analyze here, the 1991 Disney ́s Company cartoon film «The Beauty and the best». Entendiendo que los productos culturales dirigidos a los niños son transmisores de representaciones sociales y reproducen esquem…
