Adolescents’ and mothers’ temperament types and their roles in early adolescents’ socioemotional functioning

2018

The present study examined adolescents’ and mothers’ temperament types and their roles in the socioemotional functioning of early adolescents. A total of 869 sixth-grade students and 668 mothers participated in the study. The students rated their temperament and socioemotional functioning and the mothers rated their own temperament. Latent profile analyses identified four temperament types among the adolescents (resilient, reserved, average, and mixed) and three types among the mothers (resilient, average, and mixed). The results showed that the adolescents with resilient or reserved temperaments reported significantly fewer conduct problems and emotional symptoms, less hyperactivity, and …

The [Fe(etz)6](BF4)2 Spin-Crossover System—Part One: High-Spin ⇌ Low-Spin Transition in Two Lattice Sites

1996

The [Fe(etz),](BF,), spin-cross-over system (etz = 1-ethyl-1 H-tetrazole) crystallizes in space group P1, with the following lattice constants at 298 K: a 10.419(3), b=15.709(1), c = 18.890(2) A = = 71.223(9), =77.986(10), and = 84.62(1)° V = 2862.0(9) A3 and Z = 3. Two nonequivalent lattice sites, one without (site A) and one with (site B) inversion symmetry, are observed. The population of the two sites nA:nB is 2:l. Iron(II) on site A undergoes a thermal low-spin (LS) high-spin (HS) transition with T1/2I, = 105 K. whereas that on site B remains in the high-spin state down to cryogenic temperatures. Application of external pressure of up to 1200 bar between 200 and 60 K does not cause for…

2017

Aim of the study was the development and validation of the psychometric properties of a six-item bi-factorial instrument for the assessment of social support (emotional and tangible support) with a population-based sample. A cross-sectional data set of N = 15,010 participants enrolled in the Gutenberg Health Study (GHS) in 2007–2012 was divided in two sub-samples. The GHS is a population-based, prospective, observational single-center cohort study in the Rhein-Main-Region in western Mid-Germany. The first sub-sample was used for scale development by performing an exploratory factor analysis. In order to test construct validity, confirmatory factor analyses were run to compare the extracted …

Los retos del sistema educativo en España

2011

International audience; A lo largo de las últimas décadas, el sistema educativo español ha cambiado profundamente. Sin embargo, a pesar de los esfuerzos realizados y de las múltiples reformas emprendidas, la eficacia interna y externa del sector sigue siendo pequeña en comparación con otros países de nuestro entorno. Gran parte de los problemas que padece el sector se debe a su escasa diversidad y a su ausencia de diferenciación. A nuestro juicio, organizar el sistema de enseñanza de manera que cada alumno encuentre un lugar en la esfera educativa que le permita adquirir unas cualificaciones a la medida de sus posibilidades y negociables en el mercado de trabajo es el mayor reto al que se e…

External, emotional and restrained eating in normal- and overweight French children: do parents and children agree?

2016

The Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire for Children (DEBQ-C; van Strien & Oosterveld, 2008) was developed to assess external eating (EXT), emotional eating (EMO), and restriction (RES) in 7- to 12-years-old. The aim of this study was to compare children and parents' views of children's eating behaviour according to children's weight status in a sample of French participants. Children were asked about their own eating behaviour and parents were asked about their children's eating behaviour using the DEBQ-C in the child- and parent-report forms, respectively. One hundred and thirty families participated (n=55 overweight children, ow; n=75 normal-weight children, nw; children were weighted a…

Externalidades de la inversión directa exterior sobre la actividad emprendedora local : un enfoque institucional en Latinoamérica

2013

Externalidades de la Inversión Directa Exterior sobre la actividad emprendedora local: Un enfoque institucional en Latinoamérica RESUMEN Cada vez es más prolífero el avance de la investigación académica de economistas y analistas políticos, sobre el papel que desempeñan las empresas multinacionales (MNE) en el desarrollo de las economías emergentes. Sin embargo, la contribución de los académicos en negocios internacionales en este sentido es algo escasa, especialmente considerando la importancia que su aporte puede significar en la materia. Surge entonces, el reto de profundizar y contribuir desde esa disciplina al debate actual, y el presente trabajo, propone abordarlo desde una perspectiv…

Optically pumped Cs magnetometers enabling a high-sensitivity search for the neutron electric dipole moment

2020

An array of 16 laser-pumped scalar Cs magnetometers was part of the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) experiment taking data at the Paul Scherrer Institute in 2015 and 2016. It was deployed to measure the gradients of the experiment's magnetic field and to monitor their temporal evolution. The originality of the array lies in its compact design, in which a single near-infrared diode laser drives all magnetometers that are located in a high-vacuum chamber, with a selection of the sensors mounted on a high-voltage electrode. We describe details of the Cs sensors' construction and modes of operation, emphasizing the accuracy and sensitivity of the magnetic-field readout. We present two app…

Internal Audit and External Audit Cooperation in EU Countries

2017

There is no common requirement guiding the approaches taken by the European Union (EU) public sector internal audit cooperation with external audit. Relations between these audit systems have developed over time. There are countries with mandatory regulations of internal and external audit cooperation, in some cases cooperation bases on initiatives, to facilitate the auditing process and avoid duplication of work. The aim of this research is to compare the Latvian public administration internal audit and external audit cooperation approach with approaches of the European countries and evaluate each country’s internal audit relation with external audit. The methodology includes a comparative…

Aborted quantitative study in the French music industry: the changes of music labels facing streaming

2020

International audience; This paper shows a failed case study of the impact of streaming on labels’ life through the exploitation of three quantitative databases. Streaming is a major external change for the music consumption and music producers. As labels are dealing with both producers and consumers, they may have been hardly impacted by this change. Yet there was a need to identify the changes that streaming brought and its impact for the organizations that decided not to adopt it. The ecology of population framework and the death vs dynamism dyad was supposed to give a clear reading of this phenomenon. In order to identify labels that did not adopt streaming, three databases were tested,…

External Changes and R&I Inter-Organizational Network Dynamics: The Case of EU R&I Policy Change

2022

The paper seeks to understand in what way changes in EU innovation policy incentives affect the EU R&I inter-organizational network dynamics. In particular, the study’s empirical settings are the two innovative inter-organizational networks that connect knowledge actors financed through two EU Framework Programs: the 7th Framework Program (or FP7), and the 8th Framework Program, named HORIZON 2020 (or H2020). Using a dataset of more than 22,228 unique projects in FP7 and 22,153 in H2020, we constructed two collaboration networks. We apply network analysis as a research instrument to identify and measure the fundamental structural properties and evolutionary dynamics of whole networks. I…
