Our team at Psychology of Social Problems Research Group from the Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center (University of Granada) has been working to better understand whether, how, and under which circumstances economic inequality negatively affects people’s subjective well-being.

In a recent study published in the journal Consciousness and Cognition, researchers from the Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center Rafael Román-Caballero, Elisa Martín-Arévalo, Paulina del Carmen Martín-Sanchez, Juan Lupiáñez and Mariagrazia Capizzi find that this is not such a simple scenario. In their study, these scientists have shown that, while rhythmic contexts benefit the speed with which we are able to discriminate auditory tones (whether they are higher or lower than other reference tones), this benefit also occurs for tones that occur out of time.
The researchers conducted a synthesis of qualitative studies, analysing in depth the narratives of nursing professionals collected in international publications. This approach has allowed to identify recurring themes in nurses’ experiences, revealing the deep emotional impact the pandemic has had on these professionals.
