Self-Distancing as a Strategy to Regulate Affect and Aggressive Behavior in Athletes: An Experimental Approach to Explore Emotion Regulation in the L…

2020

Self-regulation, especially the regulation of emotion, is an important component of athletic performance. In our study, we tested the effect of a self-distancing strategy on athletes’ performance in an aggression-inducing experimental task in the laboratory. To this end, we modified an established paradigm of interpersonal provocation [Taylor Aggression Paradigm (TAP)], which has the potential to complement field studies in order to increase our understanding of effective emotion regulation of athletes in critical situations in competitions. In our experimental setting, we first tested the applicability of the self-distancing perspective and the athletes’ ability to dynamically adapt beside…

Preventing occupational injury among police officers: does motivation matter?

2017

Background: Injury prevention is an important issue for police officers, but the effectiveness of prevention initiatives is dependent on officers’ motivation toward, and adherence to, recommended health and safety guidelines. Aims: To understand effects of police officers’ motivation to prevent occupational injury on beliefs about safety and adherence to injury prevention behaviours. Methods: Full-time police officers completed a survey comprising validated psychometric scales to assess autonomous, controlled and amotivated forms of motivation (Treatment Self-Regulation Questionnaire), behavioural adherence (Self-reported Treatment Adherence Scale) and beliefs (Safety Attitude Questionnaire…

Setting individual goals for pupils with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities—engaging in the activity area-based curriculum making

2021

The activity area-based curriculum model (AACM) is used in the Finnish basic education to support pupils—most of whom have profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD)— who could benefit more from skills that advance independent life coping. Existing studies have concentrated mainly on the Individual Education Plan (IEP) goal-setting process for pupils with milder disabilities than PIMD and have consistently demonstrated significant barriers in the process. This study explores the collaborative IEP goal-setting process for pupils with the AACM. Sixty-five Finnish special education teachers using the AACM participated in the study. Semi-structured interviews were analysed with them…

Review article: recommended reading list of early publications on atomic layer deposition - outcome of the "virtual Project on the History of ALD"

2017

Atomic layer deposition (ALD), a gas-phase thin film deposition technique based on repeated, self-terminating gas-solid reactions, has become the method of choice in semiconductor manufacturing and many other technological areas for depositing thin conformal inorganic material layers for various applications. ALD has been discovered and developed independently, at least twice, under different names: atomic layer epitaxy (ALE) and molecular layering. ALE, dating back to 1974 in Finland, has been commonly known as the origin of ALD, while work done since the 1960s in the Soviet Union under the name "molecular layering" (and sometimes other names) has remained much less known. The virtual proj…

La «semplificazione» del processo civile (d.lgs. 150/2011, pubblicato nella g.u. del 21 settembre 2011 in vigore dal 6 ottobre 2011)

2011

Con il d.lgs. 150/2011 il legislatore ha inteso unificare in un microcodice la sel- va selvaggia di riti esistenti nella legislazione speciale, riconducendoli entro tre modelli, ispirati ai riti «codicistici» del lavoro, sommario e ordinario di cogni- zione. I vecchi riti defunti, però, sono risuscitati come l’araba fenice sotto le spo- glie di ventotto nuovi sottoriti, ognuno con le sue peculiarità e differenze rispet- to ai modelli base (già diversi dai corrispondenti codicistici). Sotto altro profilo, poi, il decreto costituisce l’ennesimo capitolo di una convulsa attività riformisti- ca, che ha caratterizzato e caratterizza tuttora la storia della legislazione proces- suale. L’opera si …

Consensus nomenclature for CD8(+) T cell phenotypes in cancer

2015

International audience; Whereas preclinical investigations and clinical studies have established that CD8+ T cells can profoundly affect cancer progression, the underlying mechanisms are still elusive. Challenging the prevalent view that the beneficial effect of CD8+ T cells in cancer is solely attributable to their cytotoxic activity, several reports have indicated that the ability of CD8+ T cells to promote tumor regression is dependent on their cytokine secretion profile and their ability to self-renew. Evidence has also shown that the tumor microenvironment can disarm CD8+ T cell immunity, leading to the emergence of dysfunctional CD8+ T cells. The existence of different types of CD8+ T…

2022

Jau divas desmitgades Latvijas Universitātes (LU) starptautiskās zinātniskās konferences ietvaros katru otro gadu norisinās Arheoloģijas sekcija, ko rīko LU Vēstures un filozofijas fakultāte. Pirmoreiz šāda sekcija tika rīkota LU 61. zinātniskajā konferencē 2003. gada 10. februārī. Turpinot iesākto tradīciju, arī 2022. gada 18. februārī LU 80. starptautiskās konferences ietvaros Vēstures un filozofijas fakultātes Vēstures un arheoloģijas nodaļa organizēja arheoloģijas problemātikai veltītu sekciju, kurā tika aplūkotas daudzveidīgās un aktuālās mūsdienu arheoloģijas attīstības tendences Latvijā un Eiropā. Daļa konferences referātu pievērsās dabaszinātņu un tās pētniecisko metožu lomai arheol…
