Co utrudnia opis logopedycznych zjawisk? Od słuchoniemoty, afazji wrodzonej i alalii do specyficznego zaburzenia językowego (SLI)

2016

This article, dedicated to Professor Stanisław Gajda because of his anniversary, raises theoretical issues of accuracy and explicitness of terms used in science which are familiar to him. Logopaedics, by virtue of its interdisciplinary character and exposure to borderline of numerous and often very distant from each other sciences such as anatomy, linguistics or physics, significantly uses appropriate for these sciences tools of descriptions (freąuently doubling notions) and thus, it represents a very good example of discipline in which unnecessary overgrowth of terminology makes it difficult to track research results and ąuality analysis of phenomena. Specific Language Impairment (SLI) is …

Odmiana medialna języka a ustne wypowiedzi uczniów

2022

This article seeks to answer the question whether features of media language can be discerned in the utterances of the younger generation and, if so, which ones. The oral presentations performed during the secondary school final examinations (obtained from the recordings) were studied. They have never been analysed in this respect before. The presentations have, on the one hand, an official character and, on the other, are spontaneous as they are produced on an ad hoc and continuous basis, with no possibility of predicting their final shape. First, the article reviews the characterisation of media language by researchers working on the subject in order to establish a group of the most disti…

Vaya valla! The phenomenon of "yeísmo" in oral Spanish in Valencia

2016

En los últimos años, el fenómeno del yeísmo ha sido abordado desde diferentes perspectivas; una de ellas es la sociolingüística, a la que nuestro trabajo pretende contribuir. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar cómo evoluciona el proceso fonético de deslateralización del fonema /ʎ/ a favor de /ʝ/ en el castellano de la comunidad de habla bilingüe de Valencia y su área metropolitana. Tradicionalmente se ha señalado que Valencia mantenía la diferenciación entre la lateral y fricativa palatales, pero estudios recientes dan cuenta de la introducción y expansión del yeísmo en determinadas comarcas bilingües de la Comunidad Valenciana. En el análisis sociolingüístico realizado actúan grupos…

Associations Between Sympathetic Nervous System Synchrony, Movement Synchrony, and Speech in Couple Therapy

2022

Background: Research on interpersonal synchrony has mostly focused on a single modality, and hence little is known about the connections between different types of social attunement. In this study, the relationship between sympathetic nervous system synchrony, movement synchrony, and the amount of speech were studied in couple therapy. Methods: Data comprised 12 couple therapy cases (24 clients and 10 therapists working in pairs as co-therapists). Synchrony in electrodermal activity, head and body movement, and the amount of speech and simultaneous speech during the sessions were analyzed in 12 sessions at the start of couple therapy (all 72 dyads) and eight sessions at the end of therapy (…

SearchBot: Supporting voice conversations with proactive search

2018

Searching during conversations and social interactions is becoming increasingly common. Although searching could be helpful for solving arguments, building common ground, and reinforcing mutual assumptions, it can also cause inter-actional problems. Proactive search approaches can enrich conversations with additional information without neglecting the shared and established social norms of being attentive to ongoing interaction. This demo showcases SearchBot, a tool that minimizes the issues associated with the practice of searching during conversations. It accomplishes this by tracking conversational background speech and then providing continuous recommendations of related documents and e…

Exploiting ongoing EEG with multilinear partial least squares during free-listening to music

2016

During real-world experiences, determining the stimulus-relevant brain activity is excitingly attractive and is very challenging, particularly in electroencephalography. Here, spectrograms of ongoing electroencephalogram (EEG) of one participant constructed a third-order tensor with three factors of time, frequency and space; and the stimulus data consisting of acoustical features derived from the naturalistic and continuous music formulated a matrix with two factors of time and the number of features. Thus, the multilinear partial least squares (PLS) conforming to the canonical polyadic (CP) model was performed on the tensor and the matrix for decomposing the ongoing EEG. Consequently, we …

Combining PCA and multiset CCA for dimension reduction when group ICA is applied to decompose naturalistic fMRI data

2015

An extension of group independent component analysis (GICA) is introduced, where multi-set canonical correlation analysis (MCCA) is combined with principal component analysis (PCA) for three-stage dimension reduction. The method is applied on naturalistic functional MRI (fMRI) images acquired during task-free continuous music listening experiment, and the results are compared with the outcome of the conventional GICA. The extended GICA resulted slightly faster ICA convergence and, more interestingly, extracted more stimulus-related components than its conventional counterpart. Therefore, we think the extension is beneficial enhancement for GICA, especially when applied to challenging fMRI d…

Visual Distraction Effects of In-Car Text Entry Methods

2017

Three text entry methods were compared in a driving simulator study with 17 participants. Ninety-seven drivers’ occlusion distance (OD) data mapped on the test routes was used as a baseline to evaluate the methods’ visual distraction potential. Only the voice recognition-based text entry tasks passed the set verification criteria. Handwriting tasks were experienced as the most demanding and the voice recognition tasks as the least demanding. An individual in-car glance length preference was found, but against expectations, drivers’ ODs did not correlate with incar glance lengths or visual short-term memory capacity. The handwriting method was further studied with 24 participants with instru…

Ražošanas robežas un kārtība: Amatnieciskās mājas vīna darīšanas Latvijā gadījumu izpēte

2015

Pētījums „Ražošanas robežas un kārtība: Amatnieciskās mājas vīna ražošanas Latvijā gadījumu izpēte” fokusējas uz „formālajā tirgus daļā” ieejošo vīndaru pieredzi. Kvalitatīvās metodes ir pielietotas, lai analizētu, kā viņi pieņem, pielāgo vai apstrīd normatīvo regulējumu un pieņēmumus par to, kas ir Latvijas vīns un kā tam vajadzētu tikt ražotam un izplatītam konkrēta tirgus sektora ietvarā post-industriālajā ekonomikā. Analīze rāda, ka vīndari neuztver normatīvo regulējumu kā apgrūtinājumu, bet gan gūst baudu un lepnumu no spējas radīt savu vīnu tā kontekstā un caur to, radot augstas kvalitātes amatniecības produktu, ko iekāro patērētāji. Analīze rāda arī, ka, lai gan ražošanas investīcija…
