Linking News Value Theory With Online Deliberation: How News Factors and Illustration Factors in News Articles Affect the Deliberative Quality of Use…
2018
Previous research suggests that distinct characteristics of news articles, such as their news factors, account for the different participation rates in comment sections as well as the degree of interactivity among the discussants. In this study, this assumption is tested in the Facebook environment and extended to the analysis of how news factors (i.e., event characteristics) and illustration factors (i.e., characteristics resulting from a specific journalistic editing) of news articles predict the inclusiveness of discussions, as well as the occurrence of civility, rationality, and deliberative interactivity in user comments. A content analysis of 619 news articles and 11,218 related user…
Eye tracking and the translation process: reflections on the analysis and interpretation of eye-tracking data
2014
Eye tracking has become increasingly popular as a quantitative research method in translation research. This paper discusses some of the major methodological issues involved in the use of eye tracking in translation research. It focuses specifically on challenges in the analysis and interpretation of eye-tracking data as reflections of cognitive processes during translation. Four types of methodological issues are discussed in the paper. The first part discusses the preparatory steps that precede the actual recording of eye-tracking data. The second part examines critically the general assumptions linking eye movements to cognitive processing in the context of translation research. The thir…
Cómo los corpus pueden asistir a los estudiantes de traducción jurídica : la plataforma GENTT TransTools Corpora y Sketch Engine
2019

 Esta aportación analiza la aplicación de corpus a la enseñanza de la traducción jurídica en la educación superior utilizando la plataforma GENTT TransTools Corpora y Sketch Engine. En primer lugar, revisaremos la bibliografía sobre experiencias previas de aplicación de corpus textuales a la enseñanza de la traducción jurídica. A continuación, describiremos la experiencia de 10 años del grupo GENTT en el aula de traducción especializada, en la que hemos aplicado una metodología basada corpus y dirigida a promover la formación guiada y el aprendizaje constructivo y cooperativo. Estas experiencias sugieren que los corpus monolingües, multilingües y traducidos de textos especializados c…
Emotional Content in Wikipedia Articles on Negative Man-Made and Nature-Made Events
2017
Wikipedia emphasizes the objectivity of content. Yet, Wikipedia articles also deal with negative events that potentially elicit intense emotions. Undesirable outcomes (e.g., earthquakes) are known to elicit sadness, while undesirable outcomes caused by others’ actions (e.g., terrorist attacks) are known to elicit anger. Internet users’ emotional responses are likely to end up in Wikipedia articles on those events as characteristics of Internet users spill over to Wikipedia articles. Therefore, we expected that Wikipedia articles on terrorist attacks contain more anger-related and less sadness-related content than articles on earthquakes. We analyzed newly created Wikipedia articles about t…
The reciprocal effects of social network site use and the disposition for self-disclosure: A longitudinal study
2013
Since the advent of social network sites (SNSs), scholars have critically discussed the psychological and societal implication of online self-disclosure. Does Facebook change our willingness to disclose personal information? The present study proposes that the use of SNSs and the psychological disposition for self-disclosure interact reciprocally: Individuals with a stronger disposition show a higher tendency to use SNSs (selection effect). At the same time, frequent SNS use increases the wish to self-disclose online, because self-disclosing behaviors are reinforced through social capital within the SNS environment (socialization effect). In a longitudinal panel study, 488 users of SNSs wer…
Tool support for MOLA
2006
AbstractThe paper describes the MOLA Tool, which supports the model transformation language MOLA. MOLA Tool consists of two parts: MOLA definition environment and MOLA execution environment. MOLA definition environment is based on the GMF (Generic Modeling Framework) and contains graphical editors for metamodels and MOLA diagrams, as well as the MOLA compiler. The main component of MOLA execution environment is a MOLA virtual machine, which performs model transformations, using an SQL database as a repository. The execution environment may be used as a plug-in for Eclipse based modeling tools (e.g., IBM Rational RSA). The current status of the tool is truly academic.
Lederstiler : i hvilken grad gjør ledere bevisste valg av lederstil?
2011
Masteroppgave i offentlig politikk og ledelse- Universitetet i Agder 2011 The aim of this study is to analyze how leaders apply different leadership styles. As different situations require different types of leadership, it is assumed that a leader, at any time, is flexible in their choice of leadership style. This study will consider how aware a leader is of his or her flexibility to choose between different leadership styles. This paper tries to figure out how leaders choose their leadership style, and whether the choice of a leadership style is a conscious or an intuitive one. This study draws on trait and behavior theories, and also on the theory of emotional intelligence. Through these …
Pathology-selective antiepileptic effects in the focal freeze-lesion rat model of malformation of cortical development
2021
Malformations of cortical development (MCD) represent a group of rare diseases with severe clinical presentation as epileptic and pharmacoresistant encephalopathies. Morphological studies in tissue from MCD patients have revealed reduced GABAergic efficacy and increased intracellular chloride concentration in neuronal cells as important pathophysiological mechanisms in MCD. Also, in various animal models, alterations of GABAergic inhibition have been postulated as a predominant factor contributing to perilesional hyperexcitability. Along with this line, the NKCC1 inhibitor bumetanide has been postulated as a potential drug for treatment of epilepsy, mediating its antiepileptic effect by red…
