89The Role of Self-Definitional Principles in Consumer Identification with a Socially Responsible CompanyJournal of Business Ethics 89 (4): 547-564. 2009.This research analyses the influence of the perception of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR image) on consumer–company identification (C–C identification). This analysis involves an examination of the influence of CSR image on brand identity characteristics which provide consumers with an instrument to satisfy their self-definitional needs, thereby perceiving the brand as more attractive. Also, the direct and mediated influences (through their effect on brand attitude), of CSR-based C–C ident…Read more

87Alliances Between Brands and Social Causes: The Influence of Company Credibility on Social Responsibility ImageJournal of Business Ethics 96 (2): 169-186. 2010.This research extends previous findings related to the positive influence of company credibility on a social Cause–Brand Alliance’s (CBA) persuasion mechanism. This study analyzes the mediating role of two dimensions of company credibility (trustworthiness and expertise) with regard to the influence of altruistic attributions and two types of brand–cause fit (functional and image fit) on corporate social responsibility image. A structural equation model tests the proposed framework with a sample…Read more

73Guilt and shame: an axiomatic analysis (review)Theory and Decision 69 (4): 569-586. 2010.Using the machinery of Game Theory, this article analyzes how shame and guilt affect preferences. Based on abundant psychological literature, we posit that the preference ordering of someone who can feel shame (or guilt) must satisfy a number of axioms and prove that it can be represented by a particular utility function. Understanding how shame and guilt work is important to explain why people respect social norms and exhibit prosocial behavior, many times contrary to their material interest

70On representation theorems for nonmonotonic consequence relationsJournal of Symbolic Logic 65 (3): 1321-1337. 2000.One of the main tools in the study of nonmonotonic consequence relations is the representation of such relations in terms of preferential models.

49Logic Based MergingJournal of Philosophical Logic 40 (2): 239-270. 2011.Belief merging aims at combining several pieces of information coming from different sources. In this paper we review the works on belief merging of propositional bases. We discuss the relationship between merging, revision, update and confluence, and some links between belief merging and social choice theory. Finally we mention the main generalizations of these works in other logical frameworks

37Different carrots and different sticks: do we reward and punish differently than we approve and disapprove? (review)Theory and Decision 76 (1): 95-118. 2014.This paper reports lab data from four games in order to analyze and compare the motivations behind monetary punishment and reward and their non-monetary counterparts, disapproval and approval, an important question given that both types of punishment/rewards affect cooperation and norm compliance. The results in our games support the hypothesis that a motivation akin to reciprocity plays the key role for approval and disapproval whereas payoff comparisons play the key role for monetary rewards a…Read more

31A framework for iterated revisionJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 10 (3-4): 339-367. 2000.ABSTRACT We consider in this work the problem of iterated belief revision. We propose a family of belief revision operators called revision with memory operators and we give a logical (both syntactical and semantical) characterization of these operators. They obey what we call the principle of strong primacy of update: when one revises his beliefs by a new evidence, then all possible worlds that satisfy this new evidence become more reliable than those that do not. We show that those operators h…Read more

30Dominance plausible rule and transitivityJournal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 21 (3-4): 355-373. 2011.In qualitative decision theory, a very natural way for defining preference relations over policies (acts) -functions from a set S of states to a set X of consequences- is by using the so called Dominance Plausible Rule. In this context we need a relation > over X and a relation ? over P(S) (the subsets of S). Then we define ≥ as follows: f ≥ g, ? [f > g] ? [g > f], where [f > g] denotes the set {s ? S : f(s) > g(s)g}. In many cases > is a modular relation and ? is a total preorder. A quite ratio…Read more

16Personality Traits Induce Different Brain Patterns When Processing Social and Valence InformationFrontiers in Psychology 12. 2022.This paper shows the brain correlates of Cloninger’s personality model during the presentation of social scenarios under positive or negative valence situations. Social scenarios were constructed when participants played the Dictator game with two confederates that had two opposites roles as the cooperator and non-cooperator. Later the same day during a fMRI scanning session, participants read negative and positive situations that happened to confederates in the past. Participants were asked to …Read more

14La Política Del Origen En Schmitt Frente a la Crítica Impolítica de AgambenÁgora Papeles de Filosofía 42 (2). 2023.Se revisitan las distintas resoluciones de Schmitt y Agamben ante una misma percepción ontopolítica: la contingencia en la definición del derecho, cuya función primaria es la organización de lo múltiple, tradicionalmente entendido como caos. Mientras Schmitt se decanta hacia un posfundacionalismo organicista, hacia una política del origen, Agamben opta por suspender, en un plano ontoético, la fundación del nomos. En este artículo se recorre con Schmitt la búsqueda de la forma transcendente y se …Read more

13Hospitalidad, identidad y “transtierro” en el exilio español de 1939: El neologismo de José Gaos desde la teoría del traumaRevista Portuguesa de Filosofia 78 (4): 1641-1668. 2023.This paper aims at delving further into historical and philosophical assumptions underlying Jose Gaos’s notion of “transtierro”. After going into exile and being settled in México in 1938, the Spanish philosopher coined the term “transtierro” so as to grasp the nature of Spanish diaspora in the new country. By bringing light into the extent to which the Mexican authorities support the arrival and settlement of the refuges after the Spanish Civil War, “transtierro” contributes to reframing the ex…Read more

13El centelleo de la infamia: los personajes de Historia universal de la infamiaAisthesis 59 55-73. 2016.The present article considers the implications projected by the main characters of Universal History of Infamy by Jorge Luis Borges. The seven protagonists embody a common pattern in their infamous trajectory: they exploit the tools of power by using discourse, according to the proposition by Michel Foucault, despite their being “on the other side of the law”. Although conditioned by specific historical-cultural circumstances, these heroes-antiheroes share the use of evil and the ascent to a seu…Read more
