    Universidad Iberoamérica 2030:la propuesta de la OEI para la educación superior en Iberoamérica.
    (Revista Española de Educación Comparada, 2021) Capilla Casco, Ana
    La educación superior es una de las áreas prioritarias de acción de la OEI actualmente, de acuerdo al mandato recibido por los ministros de educación iberoamericanos. El crecimiento de la matrícula universitaria y la importancia de la educación superior para superar la denominada «trampa de la productividad» que sufre especialmente América Latina, explican este interés. Así como la necesidad cada vez más acuciante de hacer realidad un objetivo largamente ansiado en la región: la construcción de un espacio iberoamericano de educación superior e investigación. Todos estos elementos forman parte de la estrategia Universidad Iberoamérica 2030 que la OEI ha proyectado para la próxima década, y que marcan un camino claro para las instituciones de educación superior.

    Risky alcohol use during youth: Impact on emotion, cognitive networks, and resting-state EEG activity.
    (Progress in Neuro-psychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry, 2024) Sampedro-Piquero, Patricia; Buades-Sitjar, F.; Capilla Casco, Ana; Zancada-Menéndez, Clara; González-Baeza, Alicia; Moreno Fernández, Román Darío
    The identification of the risk factors of alcohol consumption in youths is crucial for early interventions focused on reducing harmful alcohol use. In our study, 82 college students (40 healthy control (CO group) and 42 with risky alcohol use (RAU group) determined by AUDIT questionnaire) between the ages of 18 and 25 years underwent a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment covering emotional and cognitive functioning. Their resting-state activity was also recorded with an EEG for 10 min with their eyes open (EO) and 10 min with their eyes closed (EC) and analyzed using the Fitting Oscillations & One-Over-F (FOOOF) paradigm. After adjusting for sex, those in the RAU group had higher emotional dysregulation and impulsivity traits. The RAU girls presented more emotional regulation problems, such as dysregulation and negative urgency compared with the RAU boys. The RAU youths had significantly worse functioning in several cognitive domains, such as sustained attention, verbal memory, and executive functions. Cognitive network analysis revealed a different pattern of connections in each group showing that in the RAU group, the verbal memory domain had the highest connection with other cognitive functions. The EEG analyses did not reveal any significant differences between the CO and the RAU groups. However, we observed only in the EO condition that boys the from the RAU group displayed a higher theta/beta ratio than the RAU girls, whereas these differences were not observed within the CO group. Our findings highlight the need to explore more deeply the emotional, cognitive and brain changes underlying the RAU in young people.
