"Kouzlo dálky" i "mechanismus kaváren a vináren" - uwagi o (nie)pamięci w korespondencji Jana Zahradníčka z Františkiem Halasem
2021
The article analyses letters exchanged in the years 1930 to 1949 between two outstanding Czech poets - Jan Zahradníček and František Halas. Despite their contrary views (Zahradníček was perceived as an ardent Catholic, while Hałas – as holding rather left-wing worldviews), their written communication is a testimony of their friendship which lasted for two decades. However, in the letters there are also expressed, especially in the final stage of their correspondence, numerous radical judgments of the thickening atmosphere (years of the war and Soviet domination) surrounding both artists as well as mutual assessments of their social and ethical attitudes. Their correspondence can be also vie…
Returns To Education During And After The Economic Crisis: Evidence From Latvia 2006–2012
2017
We employ EU-SILC micro data for Latvia to study how returns to education changed during the economic crisis of 2008–2009 and afterwards. We found that returns to education increased significantly during the crisis and decreased slightly during the subsequent economic recovery. The counter-cyclical effect was evident in nearly all population groups. After the crisis, education became more associated than before with a longer working week and a higher employment probability. Furthermore, we show that returns to education in Latvia are generally higher in the capital city and its suburbs than outside the capital city region, as well as for citizens of Latvia than for resident non-citizens and…
The Car Resequencing Problem with Pull-Off Tables
2011
AbstractThe car sequencing problem determines sequences of different car models launched down a mixed- model assembly line. To avoid work overloads of workforce, car sequencing restricts the maximum occurrence of labor-intensive options, e.g., a sunroof, by applying sequencing rules. We consider this problem in a resequencing context, where a given number of buffers (denoted as pull-off tables) is available for rearranging a stirred sequence. The problem is formalized and suited solution procedures are developed. A lower bound and a dominance rule are introduced which both reduce the running time of our graph approach. Finally, a real-world resequencing setting is investigated.
Avaluació de l'estat de salut i nutricional dels xiquets sahrauís acollits a la Comunitat Valenciana
2012
Des de l'any 1993 a València arriben xiquets i xiquetes de 6 a 13 anys d'edat per a passar els dos mesos d'estiu en famílies d'acollida. Aquestos infants venen d'una part del desert del Sàhara, allà hi viuen des del 1976 com a refugiats, i on les oportunitats de subsistència i l'autosuficiència són limitades. En el pas del temps, s'ha observat que l'exposició de la població sahrauí a les característiques de la zona i la dependència pràcticament de forma exclusiva de l'ajuda externa, a compromès la salut dels més vulnerables, les dones i els més xicotets, i en conseqüència s'estan observant una sèrie de problemes, preocupants per a les autoritats sahrauís i per a la comunitat internacional i…
The causal representation of outpatients with Crohn's disease: is there a link between psychological distress and clinical disease activity?
2013
Objectives: Because of the fluctuating and occasional character of Crohn’s disease (CD), patients have to cope with a changeable condition of health. Personal perceived control is known to be an important element of adaptation to their medical condition. The objectives of this work are to determine if perceived personal control is predictive of the clinical activity of the disease and of psychological distress (depression, anxiety). Methods: The Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS), the causal dimension scale and the Clinical Global Impression (CGI; assessing perceived severity) were administered to 160 patients affected by Crohn’s disease. Indicators of inflammation (CRP), disease dura…
