How to Raise Different Game Collaboration Activities : The Association Between Game Mechanics, Players' Roles and Collaboration Processes
2018
Background. Designing collaborative three-dimensional (3D) learning games is one way to enhance the quality of learning and respond to the needs of working life. However, there is little research on how to apply different game mechanics to support different educational aims.Aim. This study determines how game mechanics implemented within computer-supported collaboration roles (scripted vs. emergent) are associated with the emergence of collaboration.Method. The research at hand applies both qualitative and quantitative content analysis. The target group consisted of 15 vocational school students. The data were gathered by recording the groups’ discussions and saving the game logs. A total o…

L'institut Joan Lluís Vives, història d'un desencís?
2004
Aquest article presenta i valora la tasca desenvolupada per la xarxa d'universitats Institut Joan Lluís Vives amb motiu del seu desè aniversari. A partir de la documentació generada pel mateix Institut, s'observa la seua preocupació pels temes relacionats amb la llengua. D'acord amb això, valoro la tasca efectuada per l'Institut des d'un vessant més sociolingüístic. Intento mostrar que si bé la feina de l'Institut ha permès que la llengua catalana guanyi prestigi acadèmic, això no ha implicat un augment del seu ús en l'àmbit universitari.
European traditional tomatoes galore: a result of farmers' selection of a few diversity-rich loci
2022
A comprehensive collection of 1254 tomato accessions, corresponding to European traditional and modern varieties, early domesticated varieties, and wild relatives, was analyzed by genotyping by sequencing. A continuous genetic gradient between the traditional and modern varieties was observed. European traditional tomatoes displayed very low genetic diversity, with only 298 polymorphic loci (95% threshold) out of 64 943 total variants. European traditional tomatoes could be classified into several genetic groups. Two main clusters consisting of Spanish and Italian accessions showed higher genetic diversity than the remaining varieties, suggesting that these regions might be independent seco…
Genome-Wide Association Analysis in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
2010
Background & Aims We aimed to characterize the genetic susceptibility to primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) by means of a genome-wide association analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. Methods A total of 443,816 SNPs on the Affymetrix SNP Array 5.0 (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) were genotyped in 285 Norwegian PSC patients and 298 healthy controls. Associations detected in this discovery panel were re-examined in independent case-control panels from Scandinavia (137 PSC cases and 368 controls), Belgium/The Netherlands (229 PSC cases and 735 controls), and Germany (400 cases and 1832 controls). Results The strongest associations were detected near HLA-B at chromosome 6p21…
Personality and Labour Market Income: Evidence from Longitudinal Data
2010
This study contributes to the literature on how personality is rewarded in the labour market by examining the relationship between personality and labour market income. Our results suggest that adulthood extraversion is positively associated with income when education, work experience, and unemployment history, measured prospectively from longitudinal data, are controlled for. In addition, childhood constructiveness indicating active and well-controlled behaviour has a positive association with income in adulthood.
Do the current guidelines for heart failure diagnosis and treatment fit with clinical complexity?
2022
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome defined by specific symptoms and signs due to structural and/or functional heart abnormalities, which lead to inadequate cardiac output and/or increased intraventricular filling pressure. Importantly, HF becomes progressively a multisystemic disease. However, in August 2021, the European Society of Cardiology published the new Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic HF, according to which the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) continues to represent the pivotal parameter for HF patients’ evaluation, risk stratification and therapeutic management despite its limitations are well known. Indeed, HF has a complex pathophys…
Zur Einberufung der Hauptversammlung durch die nach § 122 Abs. 3 AktG ermächtigte Aktionärsminderheit
2014
DeutschDie durch eine Aktionarsminderheit einberufene auserordentliche Hauptversammlung der Balda AG vom 18. 7. 2013 1 hat gezeigt, dass Rechtsstellung und Befugnisse der gerichtlich zur Einberufung ermachtigten Minderheit bislang wenig geklart sind. In besonderer Weise gilt dies fur die Frage, ob der einberufende Aktionar befugt ist, eine Anmeldestelle zu benennen, und in der Folge Aktionare, die sich innerhalb der Frist des § 123 Abs. 3 Satz 2 AktG unter der angegebenen Adresse anmelden, zur Teilnahme an der Hauptversammlung berechtigt sind. Der Beitrag bejaht diese Frage. EnglishUnder Section 122 Para. 3 of the German Stock Corporation Act, a court may authorise shareholders to call a sh…
Aerobic Fitness Does Not Modify the Effect of FTO Variation on Body Composition Traits
2012
Purpose Poor physical fitness and obesity are risk factors for all cause morbidity and mortality. We aimed to clarify whether common genetic variants of key energy intake determinants in leptin (LEP), leptin receptor (LEPR), and fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) are associated with aerobic and neuromuscular performance, and whether aerobic fitness can alter the effect of these genotypes on body composition. Methods 846 healthy Finnish males of Caucasian origin were genotyped for FTO (rs8050136), LEP (rs7799039) and LEPR (rs8179183 and rs1137101) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and studied for associations with maximal oxygen consumption, body fat percent, serum leptin levels, wa…
