Integrated treatment of first episode psychosis with online training (e-learning): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
2014
Background: The integrated treatment of first episode psychosis has been shown to improve functionality and negative symptoms in previous studies. In this paper, we describe a study of integrated treatment (individual psychoeducation complementary to pharmacotherapy) versus treatment as usual, comparing results at baseline with those at 6-month re-assessment (at the end of the study) for these patients, and online training of professionals to provide this complementary treatment, with the following objectives: 1) to compare the efficacy of individual psychoeducation as add-on treatment versus treatment as usual in improving psychotic and mood symptoms; 2) to compare adherence to medication,…
Hydrogels in maxillofacial prosthesis
2017
Background: There is a growing need for prosthetic replacements in humans due to various reasons. Oro-facial deformities contribute more for these treatment modalities due to impairment in both function and esthetics. Biomaterials play an important role in replacing any form of defects. Selection of a good biomaterial is of prime importance as these materials determine the success of the treatment outcome. Acrylic resins and silicones are the most popular materials for replacing the lost tissues as far as the maxillofacial prosthesis is concerned. But these materials only help in covering the defect and give a very little therapeutic effect. Acrylic resins are very rigid materials and are l…
Deontiskās modalitātes izteikšanas līdzekļi ES tiesību dokumentos angļu valodā un to tulkojumos latviešu un spāņu valodā
2016
Modālo darbības vārdu pareiza lietošana un tulkošana juridiskos tekstos ir ļoti svarīga, jo tos lieto tiesību piešķiršanai un pienākumu uzlikšanai. Šī bakalaura darba mērķis bija konstatēt, kuri darbības vārdi var izteikt atļauju, pienākumu un nepieciešamību juridiskos tekstos un salīdzināt angļu deontisko modālo darbības vārdu lietošanu likumdošanas dokumentos ar paņēmieniem, ko lieto to modālitašu izteikšanai latviešu un spāņu šo dokumentu versijās. Lai sasniegtu to mērķi tika pielietotas kvantitatīvas un kvalitatīvas pētījuma metodes, kā arī salīdzinoša analīze. Rezultātā tika konstatētas deontiskās modālo vārdu nozīmes; tika izanalizēti modālo vārdu tulkošanas noteikumi juridiskā kontek…
Attempt to Construct a Scale for the Measurement of the Effect of Suggestion on Perception1
1975
A scale based on experimental methods has been prepared for measuring the effects of indirect suggestion upon perception. Three categories are included: (1) distorting the interpretation of presented stimuli, (2) inducing sense-impressions in the absence of adequate stimuli, and (3) producing insensitivity to stimuli that are objectively present. Test situations were designed for tactual, auditory, and visual perception. The scale was tested on a sample of 112 students from the 11th and 12th grades of a large city high school (58 girls and 54 boys). Most of the item intercorrelations were positive and many significantly so. Eliminating the 9 lowest items of 21 left 12 for a reduced matrix,…
Application of finger span cross modality matching method (FSCM) by naive assessors for olfactometric discrimination of Gewürztraminer wines
2002
Abstract A gas-chromatography-olfactometric detection (GCO) using a direct estimation of odor intensities with the finger span (FSCM) was used to establish aroma profiles of three wines of gewurztraminer from different ‘terroirs’ of the Alsace region. The GCO-FSCM analyses of their hydroalcoholic wine extracts were performed using a group of untrained assessors. Forty-four olfactory signals were perceived by at least four assessors out of six and their intensities were scored in triplicate in each of the three wine extracts, amongst which ten of them were found discriminant between wines. The reliability of each assessor was studied on the basis of the finger span estimation repeatability, …
De l'usage des logiques modales pour la gestion de l'incertitude des données : application en archéologie
2015
Archaeological information systems offer methods and tools for representing collected data and performing analyses with which taking into account imperfect data is often hard to please. Our contribution describes the use of several modal logics to model and verify the effects of the consideration of uncertain data, but also to check the quality of a corpus in an in-terdisciplinary collaborative environment. The modelling and the reasoning based on uncertain data, which are studied in this article, are integrated open and extensible platform allowing to manage archaeological data. From the computing point of view, the reasoner used, based on the first order logic, provides the archaeologists…
A study on texture-taste-aroma interactions: physico-chemical and cognitive mechanisms
2009
International audience; Texture–taste, texture–aroma and aroma–taste interactions were examined in custard desserts varying in viscosity (at identical composition), sucrose level and aroma nature. All reciprocal interactions were investigated, with each binary interaction addressed through an independent sensory study. Rheological, in vivo aroma release and sucrose release measurements were run in parallel to control for a possible physico-chemical origin of these interactions. Observed interactions were found to be dependent upon the nature of the sensory modalities involved; physico-chemical mechanisms could only in some instances entirely explain these interactions. Taste and aroma did n…
Epistemic Modality Variation in Community Law Journals
2012
Over the last decades the attention of scholars working in the filed of academic discourse has been directed towards language variation, and academic writing is not any more considered as a consistent and homogeneous form of discourse. The importance traditionally given to the consensual and static aspects of disciplinary communication has been coupled with the emphasis increasingly placed to the analysis of interactions/practices/activities that sustain discourse communities. According to the sociolinguist approach, genres become ‘dynamically rhetorical structures’ that can be manoeuvred according to the discipline’s norms, values and ideology, both historically and incrementally changing …
Epistemic Modality Markers in European and American Law Journals
2013
Over the last decades the attention of scholars working in the filed of social sciences has been directed towards language variation, and discourse analysis has increasingly evolved as a valuable way of understanding the use of language in a variety of academic, institutional and professional settings (Clyne 1994; Flowerdew & Gotti 2006; Bhatia et al. 2008). According to the sociolinguist approach, genres become ‘dynamically rhetorical structures’ that can be manoeuvred according to the discipline’s norms, values and ideology, both historically and incrementally changing as disciplinary knowledge and genres required and created by discourse communities’ change (Bhatia 2004; Hyland 2004,…
Assertions conjecturales dans deux œuvres de Toivo Pekkanen
1997
Tämä tutkielma on deskriptiivis-kontrastiivinen tutkimus suomen ja ranskan välillä. Tarkoituksena oli etsiä arvelemisen ilmaisimet Toivo Pekkasen kahdesta teoksesta ja niiden ranskannoksista. Arvelevat väitteet edustavat episteemistä modaliteettia, joka antaa ilmaukselle merkityksen ’mahdollinen’ tai ’todennäköinen’. Vertailun avulla olen pyrkinyt löytämään ne lingvistiset keinot, joilla ranskassa ilmaistaan episteemistä modaliteettia. Tutkimukseni kohteena olivat ranskan futuuri, suomen synteettinen potentiaali ja analyyttistä potentiaalia edustavat epävarmuuden adverbit ’ehkä’, ’kai’, ’kenties’ sekä arvelua ilmaiseva konditionaali. Synteettisellä potentiaalilla tarkoitetaan suomen potenti…
