Measuring higher-order cognitive skills with multiple choice questions:potentials and pitfalls of Finnish teacher education entrance
2023
This mixed methods study examines the structure of the multiple-choice exam for student selection in Finnish teacher education. Through qualitative content analysis, we categorized multiple-choice ques-tions into items that assessed lower-and higher-order cognitive processes based on the Revised Bloom's Taxonomy. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses yielded four factors that represented lower-and higher-order cognitive processing skills and comprehension of empirical and theoretical items. These were associated with matriculation examination grades, especially with the average grade and the mother tongue grade. When developing future multiple-choice exams for admissions, we recommen…
Hyvinvointivaltiokansalaisuusdiskurssit neljän suurimman puolueen eduskuntavaaliohjelmissa 1991–2019
2020
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on tehdä näkyväksi millaisia ideologisia valintoja Suomen neljä suurinta puoluetta ovat tehneet eduskuntavaaliohjelmissaan suhteessa hyvinvointivaltiokansalaisuusdiskursseihin 1991 vuodesta alkaen. Tarkastelemme erityisesti vaaliohjelmissa tuotettuja kansalaisen poliittisia ja sosiaalisia oikeuksia ja velvollisuuksia sekä kansalaisen ja valtion välistä oikeudellinen sidettä ja sen legitimointia. Tarkastelemme puolueiden hyvinvointivaltiokansalaisuusdiskursseja pohjoismaisesta hyvinvointivaltiomallista käytävän kamppailun viitekehyksessä. Kansalaisuustulkinnat ohjaavat yhteiskuntapolitiikkaa ja esimerkiksi määritelmät kansalaisten tarpeista vaikuttavat palvelurakentee…
¿El Estado de Derecho en peligro? El juez constitucional contra la Constitución y a favor de la reelección presidencial indefinida : caso Bolivia
2021
In Bolivia, the third term and the habilitation of former President Evo Morales to the 2019 presidential elections was allowed with the acquiescence of the Plurinational Constitutional Court. Despite the fact that the Constitution prohibited it and there was a referendum that rejected indefinite presidential re-election. This occurred through the judicialization of politics that produced a non-formal reform of the Constitution producing a case of abusive constitutionalism and the destabilization of the rule of law.
La constitución del parlamento en caso de presuntas irregularidades electorales: Comentario a la stedh de 10 de julio de 2020 : Caso mugemangango c. …
2021
The ECHR analyzes, through this judgment, a claim based on the violation of the rights to free elections and to an effective remedy, the origin of which is found in a series of alleged electoral irregularities. The national body that had to resolve this issue was not impartial, and the complaint procedure lacked adequate and sufficient guarantees
Contenido de la carta individual de extinción en el marco del despido colectivo : Incidencia sobre la afectación de trabajadoras embarazadas
2021
La presente obra analiza los principales pronunciamientos judiciales en relación al contenido de la carta individual de despido derivado de un despido colectivo. Se discute sobre la conveniencia de incluir la causa en la carta, así como los criterios de selección del trabajador afectado. La cuestión tiene una especial incidencia sobre un colectivo concreto: las trabajadoras embarazadas.
Global diversity in the TAS2R38 bitter taste receptor: revisiting a classic evolutionary PROPosal
2016
AbstractThe ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) and 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) is a polymorphic trait mediated by the TAS2R38 bitter taste receptor gene. It has long been hypothesized that global genetic diversity at this locus evolved under pervasive pressures from balancing natural selection. However, recent high-resolution population genetic studies of TAS2Rs suggest that demographic events have played a critical role in the evolution of these genes. We here utilized the largest TAS2R38 database yet analyzed, consisting of 5,589 individuals from 105 populations, to examine natural selection, haplotype frequencies and linkage disequilibrium to estimate the effects of both selectio…
Measurement of the AtmosphericνeSpectrum with IceCube
2015
We present a measurement of the atmospheric $\nu_e$ spectrum at energies between 0.1 TeV and 100 TeV using data from the first year of the complete IceCube detector. Atmospheric $\nu_e$ originate mainly from the decays of kaons produced in cosmic-ray air showers. This analysis selects 1078 fully contained events in 332 days of livetime, then identifies those consistent with particle showers. A likelihood analysis with improved event selection extends our previous measurement of the conventional $\nu_e$ fluxes to higher energies. The data constrain the conventional $\nu_e$ flux to be $1.3^{+0.4}_{-0.3}$ times a baseline prediction from a Honda's calculation, including the knee of the cosmic-…
Origin of Life, Theories Of
2017
Modern advances in biology, geology, chemistry, and astronomy have allowed us to elaborate models and hypotheses on the origin of life on Earth within the framework of the evolutionary theory. About four billion years ago, a rich inventory of organic compounds accumulated on the planet, as a product of volcanic, atmospheric, and cosmic chemistry. As chemical systems became increasingly more complex, a critical point was reached with the appearance of self-replicative polymers. This marks the possibility of optimizing abiotic systems by natural selection and historical contingency, which were added to the determinism of abiotic chemistry. A landmark of the origin of life was the articulation…
Rapport pour l'Assemblée nationale sur l'abstention
2021
Analyse du phénomène de l'abstention électorale après l'envolée de celle-ci aux élections régionales de 2021. Cela dit, en France, ce phénomène est enregistré depuis déjà longtemps. La poussée de l’abstention est le résultat d’un grand nombre de facteurs politiques et sociaux. Ainsi, le déclin du clivage partisan gauche/droite marque l’effacement des élections à la fois disputées et polarisées qui jouaient fortement en faveur de la participation. Cette étude rassemble données et réflexions permettant d’éclairer la compréhension de l’abstention et de nourrir les propositions visant à favoriser le regain de la participation électorale. Rapport accessible en ligne sur le site de la Fondation p…
Les élections professionnelles, autre visage de la société abstentionniste
2021
International audience; Les élections départementales et régionales de 2021 ont été marquées par une abstention massive que les commentateurs ont expliquée par l’absence d’enjeux clairs, les inégalités sociales ou le désintérêt des jeunes, la crise sanitaire... En revanche, on a généralement ignoré l’anomie – soit le déclin des formes de régulation et des valeurs collectives – qui frappe la société française. Les élections professionnelles en apportent une illustration. Le même phénomène abstentionniste s’y manifestait déjà avant la crise sanitaire. Une analyse détaillée en est proposée dans "Anatomie du syndicalisme" (PUG). Différents éléments sont repris dans cet article, soulignant la mo…
