Fine-tuning lexical bundles : a methodological reflection in the context of describing drug-drug interactions
2018
This chapter has two major aims. First, it attempts to extend earlier research on recurrent phraseologies used in the pharmaceutical field (Grabowski 2015) by exploring the use, distribution and functions of lexical bundles found in English texts describing drug-drug interactions. Conducted from an applied perspective, the study uses 300 text samples extracted from DrugDDI Corpus originally collected in the Drugbank database (Segura-Bedmar et al. 2010). Apart from presenting new descriptive data, the second aim of the chapter is to reflect on the ways lexical bundles have been typically explored across different text types and genres. The problems discussed in the chapter concern the method…
Tulkošanas stratēģijas dziesmu tulkojumos
2018
Šis darbs pēta dziesmu tulkošanu, par piemēru ņemot „Disney” animācijas filmas „Ledus sirds” („Frozen”, 2013) dziesmu tulkojumus no angļu valodas latviešu, krievu un franču valodā. Šī darba mērķis ir izpētīt un aprakstīt tulkošanas stratēģijas un dziesmu tulkojumu īpatnības, novērtējot tos pēc novirzes no oriģināla. Tiek novērota tulkošanas teoriju izpausme praksē, lietojot salīdzinošo analīzi, kas balstās uz P. Lova „pentatlona metodi” (2005) un E. Čestermana stratēģijām (2008), lai sistematizētu galveno kritēriju novērtējumu: dziesmas dziedamību, jēgu, dabiskumu, atskaņu un ritmu. Analīze liecina, ka vairums dziesmu līdzekļu tika saglabāti. Atskaņu un ritma struktūras ir gandrīz identiski…
Exploring the Life Form of a Student Athlete Afforded by a Dual Career Development Environment in Finland
2020
The current paper introduces a case study conducted in one of the most well-established athletic talent development environments in Finland, with the focus on the environment’s ecological dynamics and organizational culture, in light of its recent effort to rebrand itself as a dual career development environment. Our analysis has been inspired by the holistic ecological approach and ecological dynamics, wherein the authors have considered a dual career development environment from the point of view of its transactions with agentic individuals and affordances for student athletes in the study domain, the sports domain, and the private domain. The authors believe our findings can provide othe…
Los beneficios del mar: negocios e inversiones económicas de la oficialidad naval en el siglo XVIII
2019
Throughout the eighteenth century, the Spanish navy was extensively reformed and enhanced as a consequence of the new model of Monarchy that the Bourbons introduced. Among the measures adopted, it is remarkable the erection of the naval officers corps according to the needs and obligations that maritime war had in this century. This group becomes the paradigm of the new professionalization and new training approach, and its members had great relevance due to its great mobility around the empire and the power of the naval institution. This means that a part of the naval officers were placed in privileged positions and at the intersection of diverse political, social and economic networks. Th…
The ecosocial approach in social work as a framework for structural social work
2016
The article aims to deepen the understanding of structural social work from the point of view of the ecosocial framework. It analyses selected current international literature from the debate on the new wave of various interpretations of ecological social work. The debate shares four main themes: (a) a global perspective, (b) a critical view of professional social work, (c) a holistic ecosocial transition of society and (d) environmental and ecological justice. The ecosocial framework challenges structural social work to follow the principles of sustainable development and considers environmental issues as a crucial part of the goals and practical activities of structural social work.
The project DINAUTIS: an ecosystem approach to assess effects of recreational boating noise on Marine Protected Areas
2009
Anthropogenic noise, generated by recreational and commercial boating, affects ecological responses of marine species particularly where the noise is chronic like coastal areas largely exploited by tourism. To date, most research to seek direct relationships between noise and ecological responses of biota is based on laboratory experiments, while scant information is available from at whole-of-ecosystem level from the wild. DINAUTIS is a project designed to study the multi-level ecological response of marine biota subjected to chronic noise and the effect of some “by product” of recreational boating (e.g. PAH contamination). Thus, in the present study, we report on different aspects studied…
Are oral health conditions associated with schoolchildren’s performance and school attendance in the Kingdom of Bahrain? A life‐course perspective
2021
Background: The link between oral diseases and school performance and school attendance remains unclear among Middle Eastern children.Aim: To investigate the relationship of oral conditions with schoolchildren's school performance and attendance using the life- course approach.Design: A cross- sectional study was conducted with 466 schoolchildren aged 7- 8 years from Kingdom of Bahrain (KoB) and their parents. Questionnaire data on children's current and at- birth environmental characteristics were completed by their parents. Children's oral health measures, including ICDAS (International Caries Detection and Assessment System), PUFA (pulp, ulcer, fistula, abscess), and DDE (developmental d…
Monitoring fungal biodiversity – towards an integrated approach
2012
Biodiversity information databases and platforms have seen considerable progress in recent years. They have a high potential in conservation science in general, but may be even more revolutionary in relation to poorly known species groups such as fungi, whose practical conservation work has been jeopardised by scattered and poorly controlled information. We review the tradition of collecting information on species occurrences in mycology and discuss the characteristics of the present fungal biodiversity information databases. With a special focus on population trend monitoring of fruit body producing macrofungi, we emphasise several unrealised opportunities of these databases and point out …
Epidemiologische Perspektiven der Migrationsforschung am Beispiel von Krebserkrankungen
2008
Epidemiologic research on migration and health in Germany is increasingly focusing on chronic diseases. Migrant studies can help to identify causes of diseases. They also help to identify health inequalities and can thus contribute to improvements in health care. With regard to cancer, descriptive studies among Turkish migrants and ethnic German immigrants from the Former Soviet Union have shown overall low, but slowly increasing cancer rates as compared to autochthonous Germans. For individual cancer sites such as stomach cancer, migrants appear to experience higher risks than the comparison population. Epidemiologic approaches studying cancer care and services for migrants, as well as ana…
Bounded Rationality for “Just In Time” Education
2011
Abstract If you cannot get answers keep putting questions The paper has three targets: a) Taken per se , it advances the research presented in a series of seven papers about education in a post-industrial (i.e., service-oriented) society broadening the scope from engineering to any kind of education reachable through reachable through permanent endeavour. b) Regarded as part of a “EU 2020 research cluster” with the aim to pro pose affordable approaches to education for sustainable development, the paper reveals bounded rationality (BR) as common denominator of, mechanism for, and connection between the two facets of permanent education: e- teaching and e- learning , the research aiming to m…
