Studerandes åsikter om den obligatoriska språkpraktiken i svenska språket
2017
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoitus oli ottaa selvää, mitä mieltä ruotsin opiskelijat ovat kieliharjoittelusta, joka on pakollinen osa ruotsin aineopintoja. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin, mitkä seikat vaikuttavat kieliharjoittelutavan valintaan, millaista hyötyä opiskelijat kokevat saaneensa kieliharjoittelusta ja kuinka positiiviseksi opiskelijat arvioivat harjoittelun kokemuksena. Lisäksi tutkittiin opiskelijoiden kielitaidon kehitystä itsearviointien avulla sekä opiskelijoiden mielipiteitä harjoittelun tavoitteiden toteutumisesta. Tutkimukseen osallistui 19 henkilöä. Aluksi kaikki vastasivat sähköiseen kyselylomakkeeseen ja myöhemmin kuusi henkilöä valittiin vielä tarkempaan suulliseen haastattelu…
Il consenso del minore al trattamento medico in prospettiva comparatistica: un nuovo soggetto di diritto?
2020
The research analyzes in a comparative perspective the new role recognized to the minor thanks to the juridical relevance of his will with particular reference to some recent jurisprudential rulings both of the Suprême Court, in the English system, and of the Court of Cassation, in the Italian law. In this new perspective, the minor is increasingly considered the centre of imputation of rights and duties and less perceived as a weak subject, whose protection is traditionally entrusted to parents or, in case of their absence, to other substitute figures. In this new approach, the minor seems to play a new juridical subjectivity and his will must be increasingly taken into consideration as i…
Implant treatment in patients with osteoporosis
2010
Osteoporosis is very common, particularly in post-menopausal women and is characterized by a decrease in bone mass and strength. Osteoporosis also affects the jawbone and it is considered a potential contraindication to placement of dental implants. The present paper reviews the literature regarding the effect of osteoporosis on osseointegration of implants. Experimental models have shown that osteoporosis affects the process of osseointegration, which can be reversed by treatment. However, studies in subjects with osteoporosis have shown no differences in survival of the implants compared to healthy individuals. Therefore, osteoporosis cannot be considered a contraindication for implant pl…
Assessment Capacity, Cultural Validity and Consequential Validity in PISA
2016
La evaluaciones internacionales de estudiantes han desempeñado un papel cada vez más importante en la política educativa. Estas comparaciones internacionales basadas en pruebas generan información valiosa sobre el rendimiento del estudiantado de cada país participante y los factores sociales y contextuales asociados. Una imagen compleja de los factores culturales, económicos y sociales que dan forma a la participación de PISA empieza a emerger. Nuestro objetivo es entender la relación entre la capacidad evaluative nacional y la forma en que los países participan en estas comparaciones internacionales. Proponemos un marco conceptual para examinar la capacidad evaluativa como clave para abord…
Robust Assembly Assistance Using Informed Tree Search with Markov Chains
2022
Manual work accounts for one of the largest workgroups in the European manufacturing sector, and improving the training capacity, quality, and speed brings significant competitive benefits to companies. In this context, this paper presents an informed tree search on top of a Markov chain that suggests possible next assembly steps as a key component of an innovative assembly training station for manual operations. The goal of the next step suggestions is to provide support to inexperienced workers or to assist experienced workers by providing choices for the next assembly step in an automated manner without the involvement of a human trainer on site. Data stemming from 179 experiment partici…
Source document verification in the Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Registry
2011
Purpose The Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I (MPS I) Registry is an international observational database that tracks the natural history and the outcomes of patients with MPS I. The Registry was a regulatory requirement following the approval of laronidase enzyme replacement therapy for MPS I in 2003. All data are collected voluntarily after informed consent from the patient or family. Data are checked through queries, monthly reviews, and electronic audits to identify missing, inconsistent, or invalid data. This analysis sought to determine overall data accuracy in the Registry through source document verification (SDV). Methods Two phases of SDV were performed. In each phase, Registry data we…

Interpretaciones no intencionadas e intencionadas y usos de los resultados de PISA: Una perspectiva de validez consecuencial
2016
Este artículo explora la relevancia de considerar las consecuencias de las pruebas como parte de las discusiones acerca de la validez, la investigación sobre validación, en el contexto del Programa Internacional para la Evaluación de Estudiantes de la OCDE, PISA. Lo primero que describe la concepción moderna de validez como un aspecto fundamental de la calidad de los ensayos y sistemas de pruebas, es que evoluciona en torno a las interpretaciones propuestas y usos de las puntuaciones de las pruebas: "La validez se refiere al grado en el cual la evidencia y la teoría apoyan las interpretaciones de las puntuaciones de las pruebas sobre las propuestas de su uso en los test. La validez es, por …
