Temperamentally inhibited children are at risk for poorer maths performance : self-concept as mediator
2020
AbstractIt has repeatedly been found that temperamental inhibition and low academic achievement are associated with each other: children with cautious and wary or shy behaviour are at risk for low academic achievement. Several suggestions about the mechanism behind this association have been made, these highlighting for example, the fewer learning opportunities of cautious and wary children and more negative interaction between teachers and inhibited children. However, the empirical studies about these mechanisms are rare and, thus, they have remained unclear. This study examined whether children’s maths-related self-concept of ability acts as a mediator between their temperamental inhibiti…
Azobenzolu saturošs molekulārais stikls kā optiskā ieraksta materiāls
2015
Šajā darbā tika pētīti fotoinducētie procesi azobenzolu saturošā molekulārā stiklā ar nosaukumu K-RJ-8, sintezēts Rīgas Tehniskajā universitātē. Azobenzolu saturošiem savienojumiem raksturīga optiski ierosināma izomerizācija. Šī procesa laikā molekulas var tikt orientētas attiecībā pret ierosinošās gaismas polarizāciju. Rezultātā materiālā rodas anizotropija, kas izpaužas kā dihroisms un dubultlaušana, kā arī var tikt novērota makroskopiska masas pārbīde. Azobenzolu saturošos molekulāros stiklos orientēšanās un materiāla pārvietošanās tiek atvieglota, jo daļiņu ģeometriskā forma kavē kristalizācijas procesus. Darbā pētītas savienojuma K-RJ-8 īpašības, kas ir perspektīvas optiskā ieraksta ve…
Predicting COVID-19 booster vaccine intentions.
2022
Achieving broad immunity through vaccination is a cornerstone strategy for long-term management of COVID-19 infections, particularly the prevention of serious cases and hospitalizations. Evidence that vaccine-induced immunity wanes over time points to the need for COVID-19 booster vaccines, and maximum compliance is required to maintain population-level immunity. Little is known of the correlates of intentions to receive booster vaccines among previously vaccinated individuals. The present study applied an integrated model to examine effects of beliefs from multiple social cognition theories alongside sets of generalized, stable beliefs on individuals' booster vaccine intentions. US residen…
"Naturally wired to learn" : beliefs about SLA in an online community
2013
Tämän tapaustutkimuksen tarkoituksena on kartoittaa tofugu.com – kieli- ja kulttuuriyhteisön uskomuksia kielenoppimisesta. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on selvittää, mitä oppimisuskomuksia yhteisön keskusteluissa esiintyy, miten ne rakentuvat julkaisijan artikkeleissa sekä yleisön ja julkaisijan välisissä diskursseissa. Tutkin tätä analysoimalla syys- marraskuussa 2011 julkaistua kielenoppimiseen liittyvää artikkelisarjaa kommentteineen. Vastaavaa internetyhteisön oppimisuskomuksia kartoittavaa tutkimusta ei ole aikaisemmin tehty. Tutkielmani teoriatausta ja viitekehys pohjautuu Vygotskin sosiaalisen konstruktivismin oppimiskäsitykseen, jonka mukaan muokkaamme tietoamme sosiaalisissa konteksteis…
The Complexity of Learner Agency
2012
Successful language learning depends crucially on the activity and initiative of the learner (van Lier 2008: 163). However, before a learner engages their agentic resources and chooses to exercise their agency in a particular learning context, they have to hold a personal sense of agency – a belief that their behaviour can make a difference to their learning in that setting. In this article, I examine the construct of learner agency through the lens of complexity theory. I attempt to show how a learner’s sense of agency emerges from the complex dynamic interaction of a range of components in multiple levels of context. Considering longitudinal data from a single case study of a tertiary-lev…
Communication role on perception and beliefs of EU citizens about science
2020
Este documento presenta un conjunto de recomendaciones basadas en el conocimiento de las consultas públicas de CONCISE. Los puntos se enumeran según los diferentes destinatarios: comunicadores científicos, responsables políticos, científicos y público en general. El principal objetivo de CONCISE es determinar el papel que desempeña la comunicación científica en la formación de creencias, percepciones y conocimientos sobre cuestiones científicas. Para lograr este objetivo, CONCISE llevó a cabo cinco consultas públicas en Lisboa (Portugal), Valencia (España), Vicenza (Italia), Trnava (Eslovaquia) y Lodz (Polonia) con la participación de cerca de 500 ciudadanos. Esto permitió al consorcio reco…

The relationship among beliefs about problem solving, epistemological beliefs, grade level, sex, and problem solving achievement: A study in secondar…
2020
The first purpuse of this investigation was to study the effects of sex and grade level on secondary students’ beliefs about epistemology and problem solving. The second purpuse was to analyze the contribution of both belief systems, grade level, and sex to problem solving achievement. One hundred and forty-four High School students, 9th and 11th grade students, took part in the study. Two questionnaires (Schommer and StageKloosterman’s questionnaires) and a problem solving test (two word problems of the PISA tests) were administered to these students. Two ANOVAs, an ANCOVA, and a multiple regression analysis were carried out from data obtained in the investigation. In the light of the fore…
Darba pašefektivitātes, iracionālo pārliecību un uztvertā stresa saistība darba vidē
2015
Pētījuma mērķis bija noskaidrot iracionālo pārliecību, darba pašefektivitātes un uztvertā stresa saistību organizāciju vidē. Veicot regresijas un korelāciju analīzi, tika apskatīta darba pašefektivitātes un uztvertā stresa skalu saistība ar iracionalitātes skalām. Pētījumā piedalījās 402 respondenti (319 sievietes un 83 vīrieši), vidējais vecums izlasē bija 28,09 gadi (SD=10,29). Dati tika ievākti interneta vidē, uzrunājot Latvijas izglītības iestāžu studiju metodiķes un lietvedes, kā arī, publicējot aptaujas tiešsaistes adresei interneta sociālajos tīklos. Respondenti interneta vidē aizpildīja sekojošas aptaujas: Vispārējā attieksmju un pārliecību skala – īsā versija aptauja latviešu valod…
La tutela dei dati scientifici nel regolamento sui novel food alla luce del regolamento in materia di health e nutritional claims.
2021
Il regolamento (UE) 2283/2015 sui novel food rappresenta un’evoluzione nella protezione dei dati scienti ci relativi ai nuovi prodotti alimentari. La normativa, sviluppata sul modello offerto dal regolamento (UE) 1924/2006 in materia di indicazioni nutrizionali e sulla salute, garantisce una protezione quinquennale dei dati scienti ci e delle prove pro- dotte dal richiedente in sede di domanda di autorizzazione di un nuovo prodotto ex art. 10 del regolamento (UE) 2283/2015. La previsione di un termine quinquennale di tutela se, secondo taluni, può risultare troppo breve per rappresentare un vero incentivo per compiere investimenti in ricerca e sviluppo da parte delle imprese; d’altra parte…
