Adaptation of a German Multidimensional Networking Scale into English

2011

Networking refers to building and maintaining personal contacts in order to obtain resources that, in turn, enhance one’s career success and work performance. This study reports the translation and adaptation of a multifaceted German networking scale ( Wolff & Moser, 2006 ) into English and focuses on the equivalence of the two language versions. Going beyond the often used translation-backtranslation method, we used a parallel translation-backtranslation method in combination with two expert committees to arrive at the English scale version, aiming to obtain at least structural equivalence. We utilize a bilingual sample (N = 76) as well as monolingual samples from the US (N = 174) and…

Influence de l'atmosphère gazeuse sur la cinétique de formation du titanate de baryum par réaction solide-solide

1986

International audience; Les études consacrées à la synthèse, par réaction solide-solide, du titanate de baryum (BaTiO3) ont montré l'importance des propriétés physicochimiques des solides initiaux (BaCO3 et TiO2) sur les propriétés du titanate obtenu. Lors de l'élaboration de céramiques diélectriques, il est en effet nécessaire d'éviter la formation de phases intermédiaires (Ba2TiO4, BaTi4O9, ...) qui nuisent à leurs propriétés diélectriques. La présence de ces phases peut être liée à une maîtrise imparfaite des nombreux paramètres influant sur la cinétique de la réaction. Le rôle de deux de ces paramètres : les traitements mécaniques et la nature de l'atmosphère gazeuse, fait l'objet de ce…

Determination of fatty acids and lipid classes in salmon oil by near infrared spectroscopy

2017

International audience; Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was evaluated as a rapid method for the determination of oleic, palmitic, linoleic and linolenic acids as well as omega-3, omega-6, and to predict polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids, together with triacylglycerides, diglycerides, free fatty acids and ergosterol in salmon oil. To do it, Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression models were applied to correlate NIR spectra with aforementioned fatty acids and lipid classes. Results obtained were validated in front of reference procedures based on high performance thin layer and gas chromatography. PLS-NIR has a good predictive capability with relative root mean squar…

Development of Computerized Adaptive Testing for Emotion Regulation

2020

Emotion regulation (ER) plays a vital role in individuals’ well-being and successful functioning. In this study, we attempted to develop a computerized adaptive testing (CAT) to efficiently evaluate ER, namely the CAT-ER. The initial CAT-ER item bank comprised 154 items from six commonly used ER scales, which were completed by 887 participants recruited in China. We conducted unidimensionality testing, item response theory (IRT) model comparison and selection, and IRT item analysis including local independence, item fit, differential item functioning, and item discrimination. Sixty-three items with good psychometric properties were retained in the final CAT-ER. Then, two CAT simulation stud…

Naja, normal und normal. Zur Syntax, Semantik und Pragmatik der x-und-x-Konstruktion im Deutschen

2012

This article deals with the syntax, semantics and pragmatics of the x und x (‘x and x’) construction in German, cf. A: Schade, dass die [Schabracken] so teuer sind! B: Naja, teuer und teuer, wenn die Qualitat stimmt, dann finde ich den Preis okay. (A: ‘What a pity that the horsetrappers are so expensive!’ B: ‘Well, expensive and expensive, if the quality is good, the price is fine with me.’). The specific discourse function of this construction is to negotiate the situational meaning of a previously used lexical item. Typologically, it has been claimed that the pattern is language-specific for Scandinavian. The paper challenges this assumption, providing empirical evidence from a questionna…

Disease dispersion as a spatial interaction: The case of Flavescence Dorée

2020

International audience; Flavescence dorée is a serious and incurable vine disease transmitted by an insect vector. Focusing on its spatial diffusion and on its control with pesticides, this paper investigates the private strategies of wine producers and their socially optimal counterparts. The socially optimal regulation has to address two externalities regarding private treatment decisions: (a) the insufficient consideration of collective benefits from controlling the vector populations; (b) the failure to take into account environmental damage related to pesticide application. The probability of infection is estimated on French data from a spatial econometric specification. Three alternat…

Subtitling in the digital era: TV crime drama series in domestic languages

2022

This study is set within the context of extensive academic attention to and exploration of audio and visual data as resources, methods and practices in the Digital Humanities (henceforth DH) (Gallitelli 2016). DH are seen and understood as a large and heterogeneous container that accommodates different research areas and affects various media. It is a relatively young field of study, inextricably linked to the development of information technologies within which the audiovisual dimension plays a central role. Audiovisual texts as forms of knowing, learning and entertaining have recently achieved a strategic position in the field of DH alongside current advances in computing. The digital acc…

Développement précoce du comportement et des préférences alimentaires

2014

Manger est essentiel pour la survie, et nous naissons équipés pour absorber des nutriments à partir des apports alimentaires. Cependant, l'alimentation ne se résume pas à cet aspect. Quoi, comment, quand, combien manger sont autant de questions qui renvoient à d'autres aspects du comportement alimentaire, auxquelles il nous faut répondre quotidiennement. Ces autres aspects du comportement alimentaire sont appris, essentiellement durant les premières années de vie [1]. Ainsi, nous avons montré que les comportements alimentaires acquis à l'âge de 2 à 3 ans étaient prédictifs des mêmes comportements observés chez le jeune adulte [2,3]. Pour cette raison, il est fondamental de savoir quand et c…
