La réussite en éducation musicale : des facteurs individuels aux facteurs contextuels

2007

This study aim to improve knowledge about individual and contextual factors of success in music education during elementary level's first year. There are three main subjects : acquisitions' social inequalities, teacher-effect and children' interest about in class musical activities. Two musical tests (one at the beginning of the year, another at the end) were administrated to 1184 students living in Burgondy. Questionnaries completed by various actors (teachers and students) gave a lot of data. Data were analysed with multivariate models. Our results demonstrated that 1°) musical practices develop abilities and explain social origin's effect on musical acquisitions at the beginning of the y…

Kant and Baumgarten on positing. Kant's notion of positing as a response to that of Baumgarten

2020

In the literature on Kant’s philosophy, it is almost universally ignored that Baumgarten used the notion of positing in a technical sense before Kant. In this article, I try to fill this gap in the literature by providing an analysis of Kant’s notion of positing in relation to Baumgarten’s one. I first show how Kant's differentiation of relative and absolute positing is not simply an alternative to Baumgarten's notion of existence, but is instead an alternative to his (usually ignored) notion of positing; I then develop a positive account of Kant’s notion of positing.

Civilidad y Buen gobierno: la "Policía" en el siglo XVIII

2008

El concepto y la práctica de la "policía" son una de las áreas más importantes desde finales del siglo XVII. Si estudiamos ese concepto y esa práctica podremos ver cómo las monarquías absolutas europeas desarrollan una nueva racionalidad de lo "político". De hecho, ambos términos fueron durante mucho tiempo sinónimos; ambos términos, la "policía" y la "política" en el siglo XVIII, tienen que ver con un ámbito de actuación global. Éste incluía lo material y lo espiritual, las cosas y los hombres, la producción y la ordenación de la riqueza, y también una nueva sociabilidad y una nueva "civilización". Era el arte del "buen gobierno". En este artículo repasamos los diversos modelos de desarrol…

Retour d'expérience d'une première évaluation du Plan Réussite en Licence à l'Université de Bourgogne : les leçons d'un difficile recueil des points …

2014

Cet article présente les différents enseignements que l'on peut tirer d'un suivi à caractère administratif du plan réussite en licence (PRL) qui a proposé de nouvelles formes d'accompagnement vers la réussite des étudiants dans les universités françaises à partir de 2007. Il analyse les points de vue des enseignants et des étudiants impliqués dans les dispositifs d'aide et de soutien proposés aux étudiants suite à l'instauration nationale de ce plan. L'étude de l'expérience de l'Université de Bourgogne, dont l'évaluation des dispositifs d'aide et de soutien aux étudiants a été pilotée par le Centre d'innovation pédagogique et d'évaluation (CIPE), montre la prégnance des perceptions enseigna…

An architecture for autonomous agents exploiting conceptual representations

1998

An architecture for autonomous agents is proposed that integrates the functional and the behavioral approaches to robotics. The integration is based on the introduction of a conceptual level, linking together a subconceptual, behavioral, level, and a linguistic level, encompassing symbolic representation and data processing. The proposed architecture is described with reference to an experimental setup, in which the robot task is that of building a significant description of its working environment. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

Die Herausbildung von Zufriedenheits-urteilen bei Alternativenbetrachtung

1999

Traditional elements of competitive differentiation are declining. As industries and firms worldwide face increasing competition, slower growth rates, and price pressures, greater attention is being placed on customer satisfaction. However the research in satisfaction never consider alternatives, when customer satisfaction is formed. It has been the approach of this paper to present an extension for this circumstance. Therefor the regret theory, a diversion of the expectation utility theory, is used to explain the phenomena. According to this theory, each outcome has associated with it the evaluation of the difference between the outcome and the outcome that would have been received had a d…

Two ways to metaphor comprehension in comparison: towards a bidimensional account of metaphor comprehension - poster

In this paper we will discuss the role of literal meaning and mental imagery in metaphor comprehension, showing their link and the problematic nature of these notions in pragmatics (Wilson & Carston 2019). We will try to overcome these problems by putting in dialogue the typology of metaphors offered by Carston (2010, 2018), based on the parameter of literal meaning, and the typology offered by Green (2017) based on the parameter of mental imagery. Carston (2018) recognizes the existence of two kinds of metaphors: (1) local metaphors such as “Giulio is a professor” in which a single lexical item - PROFESSOR - is modulated pragmatically; (2) metaphors such as “The yellow fog that rubs it…

An Investigation of the Roles of Group Identification, Perceived Ability, and Evaluative Conditions in Stereotype Threat Experiences

2019

The Multi-Threat Framework distinguishes six qualitatively distinct stereotype threats. Up to now, few studies have been performed to identify the situational and individual determinants of different stereotype threat experiences. This study investigates the role of group identification, perceived ability, and evaluative conditions (private/public) in six stereotype threat experiences for 261 French Physical Education Students. The results show that the expression level of the different stereotype threats does not vary according to evaluative conditions. In contrast, group identification affects all the forms of stereotype threats, and for three forms of stereotype threats, this effect is …

Covert digital manipulation of vocal emotion alter speakers' emotional states in a congruent direction

2016

International audience; Research has shown that people often exert control over their emotions. By modulating expressions, reappraising feelings, and redirecting attention, they can regulate their emotional experience. These findings have contributed to a blurring of the traditional boundaries between cognitive and emotional processes, and it has been suggested that emotional signals are produced in a goal-directed way and monitored for errors like other intentional actions. However, this interesting possibility has never been experimentally tested. To this end, we created a digital audio platform to covertly modify the emotional tone of participants' voices while they talked in the directi…

Changes in the sense of agency: Implications for the psychotherapy of bulimia nervosa- A case study.

2019

A sense of agency is a transtheoretical concept that increases our understanding of important processes in psychotherapy. Agency can be described in terms of how strongly the person believes that she can have an impact on her problematic experiences and behaviors. In this case study, a patient's sense of agency in relation to symptoms of bulimia nervosa was assessed during 3 years of psychotherapy. Five distinct phases of agency in relation to eating disorder symptoms were identified: A false sense of agency or no agency at all, a weak sense of agency, a nascent sense of agency, a wavering sense of agency, and a strong sense of agency. A better understanding of patient agency can facilitate…
