Sustainable antibullying program implementation : School profiles and predictors
2020
We examined the sustainability of the KiVa antibullying program in Finland from its nationwide roll‐out in 2009 to 2016. Using latent class analyses, we identified four different patterns of implementation. The persistent schools (43%) maintained a high likelihood of participation throughout the study period. The awakened (14%) had a decreasing trend during the first years, but then increased the likelihood of program participation. The tail‐offs (20%) decreased in the likelihood of participating after the third year, and the drop‐offs (23%) already after the first year. The findings suggest that many schools need support during the initial years to launch and maintain the implementation of…
Numerical and Experimental Study of Friction Loss in Hydrostatic Motor
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: Modeling, Identification and Control. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.4173/mic.2012.3.2 Open access This paper presents a numerical and experimental study of the losses in a hydrostatic motor principle. The motor is designed so that the structural deflections and lubricating regimes between moving surfaces and, subsequently, the leakage and friction losses, can be controlled during operation. This is done by means of additional pressure volumes that influence the stator deflection. These pressures are referred to as compensation pressures and the main emphasis is on friction or torque loss modeling of the motor as a …
Franču idiomu tulkošana latviešu valodā
2015
Maģistra darba temata izvēli noteica nepieciešamība: idiomas nemitīgi sagādā problēmas tulku un tulkotāju darbā. Franču valoda kā avota valoda tika izvēlēta tāpēc ka Latvijā tā ir maz pētīta salīdzinājumā ar angļu valodu; turklāt mums nav franču-latviešu frazeoloģijas vārdnīcas. Darba mērķi ir: izpētīt idiomu īpatnības un apkopot tulkošanas stratēģijas darbam no franču valodas latviešu valodā. Šīs maģistra darbs arī kalpos par pamatu promocijas darbam, kura ietvaros taps franču-latviešu frazeoloģijas vārdnīca. Metodoloģijā ietilpst bibliogrāfijas un leksikogrāfijas pētījums, tulkojumu salīdzinošā analīze, semantiskā analīze, korpusa sastādīšana un analīze. Darba rezultāti ir: frazeoloģisko …
“I started reading even though I didn’t understand much”: The significance of reading and writing fanfiction in extra-curricular language learning
2018
Kouluajan ulkopuolella tapahtuu oppimista jatkuvasti, erityisesti englannin kielen suhteen. Lingua francana toimivalta englannin kieleltä on lähes mahdoton välttyä, koska se on osa monen jokapäiväistä elämää esimerkiksi eri medioiden kautta. Suurin osa tästä oppimisesta tapahtuu alitajuisesti, eikä henkilö tee tietoista valintaa oppia altistuessaan kielelle tavalla tai toisella. Lukemisen merkitys kielen oppimisessa on laajasti tutkittu aihe (ks. esim. Krashen, 1989; Krashen and Bland, 2014). Yleinen näkemys on, että kohdekielellä lukeminen tukee kielen oppimista. Lukeminen ei kuitenkaan tyypillisesti korostu opetussuunnitelmissa muita oppimismenetelmiä enemmän. Vieraan kielen oppimisessa m…
The Timecourse of Sentence Processing in the Brain
2015
This chapter discusses the current state of the art with regard to the timecourse of sentence processing in the brain. It outlines the challenges associated with studying timecourse information at the sentence level from a neurobiological perspective and describes competing theoretical and empirical perspectives in this domain. In addition to drawing on findings from neurophysiological methods (electroencephalography [EEG]; magnetoencephalography [MEG]), insights from eye movement measures during natural reading are also taken into account. The chapter concludes that while we are currently unable to make absolute claims about the timecourse of sentence processing from a neurobiological pers…
Factores determinantes de los Delitos de Mayor Connotación Social en la Región Metropolitana. Análisis en base a un modelo de regresión logística
2018
espanolLas iniciativas enfocadas solo en acciones de control policial, si bien elevan la percepcion de seguridad, no actuan sobre las causas multifactoriales de un problema social dinamico y complejo. Por ende, se deben desarrollar medidas de prevencion y de control, las que requieren la participacion activa, sinergica y coordinada de todos los actores involucrados en materia de seguridad publica, para disminuir los factores de riesgo que derivan en el actuar criminal. El objetivo de este trabajo es medir la incidencia de factores espaciales, temporales y elementos de contexto que caracterizan a las comunas de la Region Metropolitana de Chile (2014), en la probabilidad de ocurrencia de deli…

The optimal musical pause : the effects of expectancies, musical training, and personality
2016
The musical pause is an acoustic space between musical phrases, and is an important auditory quality because it can enhance tension by delaying the expected. It has been proposed that expectancies develop from long-term schematic knowledge learned through exposure; however, the dynamic attending theory indicates that expectancies arise from localized short-term knowledge found in the stimulus. This study aims to measure the optimal duration of the pause by assessing the influence of low-level musical features, long-term familiarity, musical ability, and personality. Musical excerpts were chosen from a variety of genres to include two phrases (separable by a silence), from which participants…
Conflicts and Negotiations in the Intergenerational Succession of Family Firms: A Literature Review.
2019
This chapter intends to stimulate a serious debate on the topic of conflict in family businesses and the theory of negotiation as a tool to resolve these conflicts. The methodology is based on the survey of the main literature on these topics. Despite the literature on conflict management is highly developed as well as the literature in family business, scholars and researchers have not yet deepened several areas of conflict management in family businesses, so the two fields of literature are yet not well integrated, showing a potential for future research avenues. We then propose a research agenda identifying the issues and research gaps that should be explored by researchers to reach a de…
