Source (Spanish)	Target (English)
El concepto de activismo o militancia se puede generalizar como la dedicación intensa a una dada línea de acción en la vida pública, ya sea en el campo social, político o religioso.	The concept of activism or militancy can be defined in general terms as the persistent dedication to a certain line of action within public life, whether in the social, political or religious field.
También se entiende por activismo la estimación primordial de la acción, en contraposición al quietismo.	Activism is also understood as action as that which is most highly regarded, in opposition to Quietism.
La prensa, a veces, usa el término «activismo» como sinónimo de manifestación o protesta.	The press sometimes utilises the term "activism" as a synonym of demonstration or protest.
En la ciencia política también puede ser sinónimo de militancia, particularmente a favor de una causa.	In political science it can also be used as a synonym of militancy, particularly in favor of a given cause.
Dentro del marco legal y electoral de las democracias representativas, usualmente toma la forma de cabildeo —redactar cartas, efectuar reuniones o hacer expresiones a la prensa y a dirigentes políticos en pro de la postura de preferencia; promover o simplemente seguir ciertos comportamientos que están diseñados o se estima que contribuyan a la causa —tal como boicotear ciertos productos de consumo, o ejecutar la preferencia por otros en las compras individuales o grupales, o efectuar manifestaciones o demostraciones organizadas, tales como marchas de simpatizantes, obtención de firmas a favor de la causa, y otras similares.	Within the legal and electoral framework of representative democracies, it is usually portrayed as advocacy - drafting letters, carrying out meetings or presenting cases in favor of the preferred cause to the press and political leaders; promoting or simply following certain behaviours that are designed or are believed to contribute to the cause - such as the boycotting of certain consumer products, or implementing the preference for others in individual or group purchases, or carrying out organised demonstrations, such as supporting marches, pro-cause petitions, and other similar actions.

Psychology is the study of behavior and mind, embracing all aspects of conscious and unconscious experience as well as thought.	La psicología es el estudio del comportamiento y la mente, que acoge todo aspecto relacionado con la experiencia consciente e inconsciente, al igual que los pensamientos.
It is an academic discipline and an applied science which seeks to understand individuals and groups by establishing general principles and researching specific cases.	Es una disciplina académica y una ciencia aplicada que busca entender a los individuos y grupos, a través del establecimiento de principios generales e investigando casos específicos.
In this field, a professional practitioner or researcher is called a psychologist and can be classified as a social, behavioral, or cognitive scientist.	En este campo, un practicante profesional o investigador se conoce como un psicólogo y puede ser clasificado como un científico social, de comportamiento o cognitivo.
Psychologists attempt to understand the role of mental functions in individual and social behavior, while also exploring the physiological and biological processes that underlie cognitive functions and behaviors.	Los psicólogos intentan entender el papel de las funciones mentales en el comportamiento individual y social, mientras exploran los procesos fisiológicos y biológicos que sustentan las funciones cognitivas y los comportamientos.
Psychologists explore concepts such as perception, cognition, attention, emotion, intelligence, phenomenology, motivation, brain functioning, personality, behavior, and interpersonal relationships, including psychological resilience, family resilience, and other areas.	Los psicólogos exploran conceptos como la percepción, la cognición, la atención, la emoción, la inteligencia, la fenomenología, la motivación, el funcionamiento cerebral, la personalidad, el comportamiento y las relaciones interpersonales, incluyendo la resiliencia psicológica, la resiliencia familiar y otros áreas.
Psychologists of diverse orientations also consider the unconscious mind.	Los psicólogos de diversas orientaciones también consideran la mente inconsciente.
Psychologists employ empirical methods to infer causal and correlational relationships between psychosocial variables.	Los psicólogos emplean métodos empíricos para inferir relaciones causales o correlaciones entre variables psico-sociales.
In addition, or in opposition, to employing empirical and deductive methods, some—especially clinical and counseling psychologists—at times rely upon symbolic interpretation and other inductive techniques.	Además, o al contrario, del empleo de métodos empíricos y deductivos, algunos - particularmente los psicólogos clínicos y de asesoramiento - se basan en la interpretación simbólica y otras técnicas.
Psychology has been described as a "hub science", with psychological findings linking to research and perspectives from the social sciences, natural sciences, medicine, humanities, and philosophy.	La psicología ha sido descrita como una "ciencia central", con encuentros psicológicos que relacionan investigación y perspectivas de las ciencias sociales, las ciencias naturales, la medicina, las humanidades y la filosofía.

As a rule you will need a guarantor, who is ideally an established Japanese professional; Japanese people will typically use their father.	Como norma necesitarás un fiador, que idealmente será un japonés profesional; la gente japonesa generalmente presentará a su padre.
(The idea is that apartments are for younger people, and established people should buy their own place.)	(La idea es que los apartamentos son para gente joven mientras que la gente ya establecida debería comprar su propia vivienda.)
In many cases it is possible to use one’s employer as a guarantor, or instead pay an additional fee to a special guarantor company if this is not acceptable.	En muchos casos es posible utilizar el empleador de uno como fiador, o sino hacer un pago adicional a una empresa especial de fiadores si esto no es aceptable.
If you have young Japanese friends, it is often possible to use their parents, particularly if you have met them already.	Si tienes amigos japoneses jóvenes, a menudo es posible presentar a sus padres, particularmente si ya les ha conocido.
Further, pay your rent and do not do anything which may require recourse to your guarantor, particularly when Leaving Japan.	Además, pague su alquiler y no haga nada que pueda repercutir sobre su fiador, particularmente cuando se marche de Japón.
If you do not have a suitable friend and your employer will not act as guarantor, you have no choice but to use a guarantor company.	Si no tiene un amigo adecuado y su empleador no quiere ser su fiador, no tendrá otra opción que utilizar una empresa de fiadores.
If you wish to use your employer as guarantor and the landlord refuses, consider another apartment, as the guarantor company fee is simply wasted money and there are plenty of apartments.	Si desea presentar a su empleador como fiador pero el propietario se niega, considere otras opciones de alquiler, ya que el pago a la compañía de fiadores es dinero gastado y hay plenitud de apartamentos.
Beware that landlords making a fuss over a guarantor (only accepting a Japanese person as guarantor) may actually just not want foreigners, and are using guarantor issues as a way to avoid saying so directly.	Esté atento de que los propietarios que se quejen sobre el fiador (solo acepte a personas japonesas como fiadores) puede que no quieran extranjeros y utilicen conflictos con el fiador para evitar decirlo de manera directa.
Thus if you have trouble with this, consider interpreting this as a “no foreigners” sign and look elsewhere.	Por tanto, si tiene problemas con esto, considere interpretarlo como una señal de "no extranjeros" y busque en otro lado.
