Microchimerism and multiple sclerosis: a study on the impact of the sex of offspring on clinical, radiological, and paraclinical features of maternal…
2023
Background. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterised by inflammation and neurodegeneration and representing one of the most common causes of neurologic disability among young adults. Over the last 40 years, several authors have confirmed the existence of fetal cells in maternal blood and their pregnancy-related origin, demonstrating that pregnancy may establish a long-term, low-grade chimeric state in women. The biological and clinical significance of fetal microchimeric cells (fMCs) in maternal health is largely unknown, although a role in autoimmune diseases have been hypothesised. Aims. The overarching aim of my PhD dissertation was to investigate the role o…
Analysis and evaluation of the inclusive model in infant and primary centre support systems
2016
En esta investigación se analiza el funcionamiento y la organización de los sistemas de apoyo utilizados en centros de Educación Infantil y Primaria de la Comunidad Valenciana. Planteamos hasta qué punto los sistemas de apoyo en estos centros contribuyen a mejorar la organización de un sistema inclusivo que resulte accesible para todos. En el estudio de casos han participado 24 profesionales pertenecientes a cuatro centros que tienen diferentes modalidades de escolarización. Para la recogida de información, se han manejado instrumentos cualitativos como son la entrevista, la observación y el análisis documental. Según los datos obtenidos, los sistemas de apoyo no se ajustan de forma integra…
Jēdzienu tīklu ģenerēšanas un apstrādes serviss
2015
Viens no veidiem, kā vizuāli uzskatāmi attēlot glosāriju, ir jēdzienu tīkls. Tas ir grafs, kura virsotnēs glabājas glosārijā iekļautie termini un šķautnes apzīmē to, ka savienotie termini ir tuvu saistīti. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir izveidot jēdzienu tīkla ģenerēšanas un apstrādes servisa iespējamo risinājumu aprakstu. Apraksts tiek balstīts gan uz pieejamiem rakstiskiem avotiem, gan arī uz praktiski veiktiem testiem. Pēc izpētes veikta arī servisa izstrāde. Risinājumu izstrādei tika izvēlēta Java programmēšanas valoda. Dati tiek glabāti grafu datubāzē Neo4J un tiek piedāvāti divu veidu grafa attēlošanai. Vizuāli uzskatāmākai attēlošanai un interaktīvām darbībām ar grafu izmantojot ar Graphv…
Dissimilar titanium-aluminum skin-stringer joints by FSW: process mechanics and performance
2022
Ever since its inception, friction stir welding (FSW) is being validated by scientific investigations as an effective substitution for fusion-based conventional joining technologies. One of the main strengths of FSW is the possibility to produce dissimilar joints, even using materials extremely different in terms of thermal and mechanical properties. The goal of the present research is to investigate the feasibility of both Al-Ti skin-stringer and reversed Ti-Al skin-stringer joints, highlighting the effect of joint configuration and main process parameters on material flow and joint mechanical properties. During the investigation, the essentiality of the proper heat input through balancing
Aristóteles entre doxografía y biografía: sobre Diógenes Laercio V 31
2019
Se pretende llamar la atención sobre un par de frases que aparecen justo hacia la mitad de la controvertida doxografía de Aristóteles que se puede leer en las Vidas y doctrinas de los filósofos más ilustres de Diógenes Laercio V 31, y que desde luego no corresponden a ningún sistema doxográfico conocido. Como sucede no pocas veces en la obra laerciana, la misma apreciación sobre si el filósofo debe o no enamorarse y contraer matrimonio se repite idéntica en otras doxografías completamente distintas: la cirenaica (DL II 91), la estoica (DL VII 129) y la epicúrea (DL X 118). Cabe plantearse, pues, el origen de este interés, en varias doxografías, por la vida sentimental, podríamos decir, de l…

Chinese university students' beliefs about second language acquisition
2015
Xitian, Fu. 2015. Beliefs about Second Language Acquisition from Chinese University Students. Master's Thesis in Education. University of Jyväskylä. Department of Education. Beliefs about second language acquisition (SLA) have intrigued pioneer investigators for more than 30 years. However, until quite recently, most studies have been conduced in the Western school context. This study aims to investigate Chinese university students’ beliefs about second language acquisition (SLA) originating from a completely different social context. This study attempts to obtain new insights of English language learning as experienced by Chinese university students within a specific social cultural contex…
Self-regulated learning, self-efficacy beliefs and performance during the late childhood
2010
This article analyzes relations between self-regulated learning, self-efficacy beliefs, and performance in tasks of solving arithmetic problems. The research includes 268 six-year-old students enrolled in the first year of primary school in Spain. The results from binary logistic regression models indicate that self-regulated learning and its interaction with self-efficacy beliefs predict performance. Finally, the cluster analysis shows four profiles of students: i) positive adjusted; ii) negative unadjusted I; iii) negative unadjusted II y; iv) negative adjusted.. Este artículo analiza relaciones entre el aprendizaje autorregulado, las creencias de autoeficacia y el desempeño en tareas de …
Population divergence in maternal investment and embryo energy use and allocation suggests adaptive responses to cool climates
2023
1. The thermal sensitivity of early life stages can play a fundamental role in constraining species distributions. For egg-laying ectotherms, cool temperatures often extend development time and exacerbate developmental energy cost. Despite these costs, egg laying is still observed at high latitudes and altitudes. How embryos overcome the developmental constraints posed by cool climates is crucial knowledge for explaining the persistence of oviparous species in such environments and for understanding thermal adaptation more broadly. 2. Here, we studied maternal investment and embryo energy use and allocation in wall lizards spanning altitudinal regions, as potential mechanisms that enable su…
ICAnDoiT: the impact of computerised adaptive corrective feedback on L2 English learners
2016
The present dissertation examines the impact of (computerised) adaptive corrective feedback, that is, feedback dynamically adapting to learners’ abilities, in English as a second/foreign language (L2) and explores the ways to maximise this impact. The study was inspired by the sociocultural perspective on development, which had implications for the interpretation of the results, including those obtained through statistical data analyses. The dissertation comprises five articles and a synthesis. In the first article, a positive effect of adaptive corrective feedback on the learners’ ability to formulate L2 English wh-questions is established. The second article explores how learners’ beliefs…
