El proyecto REVen “Rehabilitación energética de viviendas sociales, aplicando productos innovadores de ventana con marcado CE” (BIA2014-56650-JIN), tiene como objetivo realizar un análisis integral del impacto de la ventana en los aspectos relativos a eficiencia energética y calidad ambiental. Para caracterizar los flujos de energía y las condiciones ambientales internas se ha construido el Laboratorio REVen. Este artículo describe la construcción y la monitorización de este laboratorio analizando los datos de su primer año de funcionamiento. Los resultados permiten afirmar que se logra una mejora significativa del confort térmico obteniendo un ahorro de energía anual del 25 %.

The 2008 financial crisis placed banks in the gaze of public opinion. Financial entities did not delay in reacting, intensifying their efforts in what had become known as sustainable banking, with the goal of counteracting the negative effects of their loss of reputation. Neither has the academic community delayed their reaction, with the rapid growth of scientific production around this topic. However, no review of this literature through qualitative methods or bibliometry exists. The work presented in this paper fills one of those gaps, setting up a statistical description of the principal features of sustainable banking research and carrying out an analysis about its knowledge structure via co-word analysis. The results show a rapid evolution of the topics addressed, highlighting studies about the consequences of banks’ sustainability programs on their competitiveness. Future trends point to the search for more complex models, the incorporation of new stakeholders in the analysis and the consideration of different contexts.

Despite the growing interest in perceived social support as a means of achieving sustainable psychological development and well-being in the various contexts of the adolescent, its definition and composition remain unclear. The aim of this study is to test both the hierarchical order and the types and sources of a theoretical model of the social support perceived by adolescents. The model is based on the theories of Tardy and Lin, as well as on the findings of recent studies on the construct. Three theoretical models are compared using the structural equations method. The participants were 1081 randomly selected secondary school students (aged 12–18 years) from the north of Spain, who completed the APIK Perceived Social Support Questionnaire. The model positing that perceived social support comprises a hierarchical first level formed by sources of support (family, friends and teachers) and a lower second level derived from the first one, formed by types of support (emotional, material and informational), proved to be the first-choice solution. The results establish a solid theoretical base for both future studies on perceived social support during adolescence and possible educational interventions designed to improve social support for teenagers.
