De la perception de la voyelle /y/ chez des apprenants polonais du français langue étrangère
2019
The main objective of this study is to test the perception of the vowel /y/ among the Polish learners of FLE, as it does not exist in their natural vowel system. We defend the hypothesis that optimal perception conditions can make the identification and acquisition of new sounds more intelligible.
How Much Does Earphone Quality Matter While Listening to Music on Buses and Trains?
2013
We report results from an investigation into the relationships between acoustic performance, price, and perceived quality of earphones. In Singapore today, the most common situation where people listen to music is while commuting, however such environments have generally high ambient noise levels. A survey (N=94) of listener habits on buses and trains was conducted. Results showed that people use a wide range of earphones, both in terms of price and measurable acoustic performance. Five typical earphone models were identified and employed in a perceptual experiment (N=15). Volunteers rated various aspects of earphone quality while listening to music under two conditions: studio silence and …
Effect of Cycloplegia on Blur Perception Thresholds as Measured by Source Method
2017
Abstract One of the advantages of a source method over observer method in blur perception measurements is better control of a stimulus blur level, which is achieved with computerised image processing unlike the observer method that requires optical defocusing of the observer. The aim of this study was to determine if paralysation of accommodation has effect on blur perception thresholds, thereby evaluating its necessity in such experiments. Blur perception thresholds (just noticeable blur, clear image, recognition, and non-resolvable blur thresholds) were evaluated with (using cycloplegia) and without paralysed accommodation to determine effect on blur perception. A computerised low-pass sp…

Assessing risk perception over recidivist traffic offenders from a multi-group approach: how gendered could it be?
2022
ABSTRACT Objective: The core aim of this study was to examine the predictive role of demographic, psychosocial and driving features of Spanish drivers on their risk perception over recidivist traffic offenders, focusing on gender as a key differentiating factor. Method: For this cross-sectional study, it was analyzed the data gathered from a nationwide sample of 1,711 licensed drivers from the 17 regions of Spain (49% females, 51% males) with a mean age of 40.07 years, responding to a telephone-based interview on road safety issues. Demographic, driving-related and psychosocial factors were comparatively analyzed through robust tests and a bias-corrected MGSEM (Multi-Group Structural Equati…
Matching across space: evidence from Finland
2005
This paper studies spatial aspects in local labour markets in Finland from the perspective of a matching approach. The monthly data comprise 173 Local Labour Office are as over a 12-year period between January 1991 and August 2002. The basic matching function is extended to account for spatial spill-overs between the local labour markets. The role of population density in the matching process is also examined. According to results, the Finnish local labour markets suffer from a strong congestion effect among job seekers, and spatial spill-overs even strengthen the congestion. An open vacancy is filled much easier than a job seeker is employed. The results show that the matching efficiency i…
Sex and sexual ornamentation associated with survival of the cyprinid fish, Rutilus rutilus, under disease stress
2013
By conveying information of disease resistance, sexual signals may be used as cues for adaptive mate choice. Here we report observations on survival of laboratory-maintained, wild-collected, sexually mature, ready-to-spawn cyprinid fish, Rutilus rutilus (roach), under accidental epidemic attributed to Flavobacterium psychrophilum, diagnosed using species-specific PCR. The fish were maintained in a single tank. During the 27 days observation period, both the proportion of fish surviving the infection as well as the length-adjusted mean survival time of the fish that died was the highest among the high-ornamented males with large breeding tubercles, intermediary among the low-ornamented males…
LE SPECIALIZZAZIONI DELL’AVVOCATO COME STRUMENTO DISTINTIVO NEL MERCATO DEI SERVIZI FORENSI
2015
Il punto focale della nuova disciplina sul titolo di avvocato “specialista”, introdotta dall’art. 9, l. 31 dicembre 2012, n. 247, di cui è in via di approvazione lo schema di regolamento ministeriale attuativo, sembra ricadere non tanto sul tema della formazione, che è piuttosto al centro della normativa in tema di formazione continua. Non è infatti, di per sé, il conseguimento del titolo specialistico che serve ad offrire un servizio più qualificato, quanto alla competenza nei vari settori di attività, e più elevato, quanto alla qualità delle prestazioni. A questo fine serve semmai l’acquisizione di competenze, di formazione appunto, non già necessariamente anche di un “titolo” da “indicar…
