Internet two sided market regulation: A zero-ratong analysis from a theoretical and experimental approach

2022

El objetivo de esta tesis es estudiar las prácticas discriminatorias empleadas en el Mercado de Internet. Dichas prácticas han sido reguladas por la neutralidad de red en medio de un amplio y polémico debate político, económico y técnico. Con esta investigación, hemos querido analizar los efectos de los servicios de zero-rating desde una perspectiva teórica y experimental. Así mismo, proponemos un replanteamiento de la neutralidad de red a través de un estudio experimental que replica las interacciones entre agentes en el actual ecosistema digital. Capítulo 2: El objetivo de este capítulo es estudiar el efecto de los contratos de zero-rating en un mercado bilateral de duopolio de Internet. …

Europa wielu prędkości i kwestia Europy Wschodniej. Ujęcie centro-peryferyjne

2021

Artykuł przedstawia zagadnienie niepewności wynikającej z ekonomicznej nierówności państw członkowskich w Unii Europejskiej. Autor opiera się na perspektywie centro-peryferyjnej i stawia tezę, że nierówność potencjału państw i regionów w UE wynika ze zróżnicowania historycznego o charakterze społeczno-gospodarczym. Współczesny dyskurs wokół koncepcji „Europy wielu prędkości” jest próbą nadania kwestii centro-peryferyjnej w Europie konkretnych ram politycznych i instytucjonalnych. Koncepcja ta jest krytykowana w nowych krajach członkowskich UE, które obawiają się peryferyzacji i pozostają zależne od europejskiej polityki spójności. W analizie wykorzystano także ustalenia z zakresu studiów na…

Modelling the Electromechanical Impedance Method for the Prediction of the Biomechanical Behavior of Dental Implant Stability

2015

Abstract We propose the electromechanical impedance (EMI) technique to assess the stability of dental implants. The technique consists of bonding a piezoelectric transducer to the element to be monitored. Conventionally, electromechanical admittance is used to diagnose structural damage. In this study, we created a 3D finite element model to mimic a transducer bonded to the abutment of a dental implant placed in a host bone site. We simulated the healing after surgery by changing the Young's modulus of the bone-implant interface. The results show that as the Young's modulus of the interface increases, the electromechanical characteristic of the transducer changes.

In the meta-theoretical framework, a full scientific theory is a complex hierarchical-network structure which covers three levels: 1) a set of ontological, epistemological-methodological and axiological assumptions (the philosophical basis of a theory); 2) a set of highly abstract theoretical notions and general theorems which compose the image of the world; 3) a set of notions and descriptive theorems which assert something directly about the object being examined (the empirical part). The author considers the first two levels of the full theory of style, i.e., he focuses on its philosophical part and chooses the notion of subject from the second level. He accepts, as the starting point, h…

Third Sector Hybridization and Migrant Integration : Cases of Two Migrant Youth Organizations in Finland

2018

In Europe, with its larger numbers of recent newcomer migrants, there lingers the important question of how to facilitate migrant integration into society. This article focuses particularly on migrant organizations and their role in integration processes in the cultural context of Finland, where there is a tradition of civil society corporatism, but where the role of the third sector has traditionally also been strong. In addition, the third sector in Finland has in recent years been experiencing changes, as demands of service provision increase, and at the same time individual participation in formal associations is decreasing. Keeping these tendencies in mind, in this article we study two…

OnabotulinumtoxinA Modulates Visual Cortical Excitability in Chronic Migraine: Effects of 12-Week Treatment

2022

Chronic migraine is a burdensome disease presenting with episodic pain and several symptoms that may persist even among headache attacks. Multisensory integration is modified in migraine, as assessed by the level of the perception of sound-induced flash illusions, a simple paradigm reflecting changes in cortical excitability which reveals to be altered in migraineurs. OnabotulinumtoxinA is an effective preventive therapy for chronic migraineurs, reducing peripheral and central sensitization, and may influence cortical excitability. Patients affected by chronic migraine who started onabotulinumtoxinA preventive therapy were included. Clinical effects (headache diaries and migraine related qu…

Classroom-based physical activity and teachers’ instructions on students’ movement in conventional classrooms and open learning spaces

2022

AbstractAs a result of educational reforms in many countries, including Finland, new or renovated comprehensive schools have increasingly begun to incorporate open and flexible designs and principles. Multipurpose and adaptable open learning spaces can provide children with amplified opportunities to be physically active during general education. Classroom-based physical activity has been associated with better academic-related outcomes and students’ on-task behaviour, while overall physical activity has been associated with better health. In the present study, we investigated the effects of classroom type, gender and grade level on classroom-based physical activity, and the associations be…

Motivational predictors of students' participation in out-of-school learning activities and academic attainment in science : An application of the tr…

2018

Abstract Given the shortfall in students studying science, promotion of motivation and engagement in science education is a priority. The current study applied the trans-contextual model to study the motivational predictors of participation in science learning activities in secondary-school students . In a three-wave design, secondary-school students completed measures of perceived autonomy support, autonomous and controlled motivation, social-cognitive beliefs (attitudes, subjective norms, perceived control), intentions, and self-reported participation in out-of-school science learning activities. Five-weeks later, students self-reported their science learning activities. Students' science…

Integration and hegemonic relationship of labour market inequality : an investigation of immigrants/policy officials perceptions on immigrant's labou…

2017

The aim of the research was to investigate the perceptions of immigrants (students, refugees and others) and public officials, on the value of Finnish economic integration within the broader context of immigrant-host labour relationship. Employing Gramsci theory of Hegemony, this study examined those discursive hegemonies in defining the economic and labour market importance of migration and integration, and how does such "hegemonic definitions" resonate within the views of Non-EU foreign students and other migrants. How does hegemonic labour inequality explicate when certain notions of belonging and identity resonates within labour market inclusions of Immigrants. To understand how percept…
