Un réexamen du modèle de gains de Mincer
1986
A re-appraisal of mincer's earnings model Starting from rough measures of formal schooling and on the job training, the earning model proposed by J. Mincer (1974) suceed to explain a substantial proportion of the variance of individual earning. The explanatory power of the model can be significantly boosted by increasing the quality of the variables. In spite of the robustness of the model, the interpretation of the results is to be taken cautiously. These results can be derived from alternative theoretical hypothesis and namely to the one known as the filter hypothesis. It is shown that a specification of the earnings function consistent with the filter hypothesis is proced to be empirical…

Body mass index categories and anxiety symptoms among adults aged =?50 years from low and middle income countries.
2021
Background: Body weight may be a risk factor for anxiety; however, there is a scarcity of studies on this association in older adults especially from low and middle income countries (LMICs). Therefore, we investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) and anxiety symptoms among adults aged ≥ 50 years from 6 LMICs. Methods: Cross-sectional, community-based, nationally representative data from the World Health Organization (WHO) Study on global AGEing and adult health (SAGE) were analyzed. The BMI was based on measured weight and height and was categorized as: < 18.5 kg/m2 (underweight), 18.5–24.9 kg/m2 (normal weight), 25.0–29.9 kg/m2 (overweight), 30.0–34.9 kg/m2 (obesity cla…
Llibres d’escacs i difusió del joc durant el regnat d’Alfons el Magnànim
2000
El treball significa una aproximació a l'estudi de la presència del joc dels escacs, a la Corona d'Aragó durant el regnat d'Alfons el Magnànim, i la difusió de llibres d'escacs (tant els tractats tècnics, com aquelles obres literàries que prenen com a base la metàfora o el motiu del joc dels escacs). Sobre la presència i difusió del joc aportarem notícies de múltiples inventaris notarials que esmenten taulers o peces d'escacs. Altra mostra que evidència aquesta presència són les prescripcions condemnatòries del joc que naixen de diverses instàncies eclesiàstiques i civils. Tractarem la presència de llibres d'escacs a la Biblioteca Napolitana del Magnànim al regne de Nàpols hi ha moltes notí…
Allozyme variation in populations of scallops, Pecten jacobaeus (L.) and P. maximus (L.) (Bivalvia: Pectinidae), across the Almeria–Oran front
2002
Abstract The scallops Pecten jacobaeus and P. maximus have been traditionally considered as different species which shared a common ancestor some 5 Ma ago. This view has been challenged by recent reports of genetic distances based on allozymes and mitochondrial DNA which are incompatible with such a long period of isolation and are more typical of conspecific populations. To explain the slight allozyme differentiation opposed to a clear morphological distinctiveness, two main hypotheses have been proposed. One hypothesis views interpopulation allozyme differentiation as an outcome of simple population genetic processes such isolation by distance. The other considers that the intertaxa alloz…
The identity and geographical distribution of Jacobaea vulgaris subsp. gotlandica , supposedly endemic to Gotland and Öland (Sweden)-the importance o…
2009
The identity of Jacobaea vulgaris Gaertn. subsp. gotlandica (Neum.) B. Nord., hitherto considered an endemic to the Swedish islands Oland and Gotland, was investigated using nrITS and trnT-trnL intergenic spacer sequences and a broad sample of species and accessions particularly of J. vulgaris. We found that J. vulgaris subsp. gotlandica is a distinct evolutionary lineage more widespread in Europe than previously thought and may be a southeastern European steppe floristic element with outliers on the large Baltic islands. Our entirely unexpected findings underline the need of multiple intraspecific sampling in species-level phylogenetic studies.
The Two-Systems Account of Theory of Mind: Testing the Links to Social- Perceptual and Cognitive Abilities
2018
According to the two-systems account of theory of mind (ToM), understanding mental states of others involves both fast social-perceptual processes, as well as slower, reflexive cognitive operations (Frith and Frith, 2008; Apperly and Butterfill, 2009). To test the respective roles of specific abilities in either of these processes we administered 15 experimental procedures to a large sample of 343 participants, testing ability in face recognition and holistic perception, language, and reasoning. ToM was measured by a set of tasks requiring ability to track and to infer complex emotional and mental states of others from faces, eyes, spoken language, and prosody. We used structural equation m…
Representació social i tòpic de la igualtat davant la mort a través de la figuració del joc dels escacs (de Jaume de Cèssulis i Innocenci III / Joan …
2001
Este artículo supone un exhaustivo ejercicio de análisis de textos literarios medievales procedentes de literaturas románicas a partir de las metaforizaciones literarias que utilizan el juego del ajedrez en el Occidente medieval, con especial relación con la literatura catalana. El artículo analiza el funcionamiento, fuentes y difusión de la imagen literaria de representación social a partir del juego del ajedrez (enunciada en el Liber de Moribus Hominum de Officciis Nobilum, obra moralizada del siglo XIII escrita por el dominico Jacobo de Cessulis) y de un motivo que se deriva, el de la igualdad social ante la muerte asociado a la mezcla de las piezas cuando son en la bolsa o saco (atribui…
Äärellisen väännön kuvaukset : diskreettisyys ja avoimuus
2015
Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on tarkastella äärellisen väännön kuvauksia euklidisissa avaruuksissa, erityisesti niiden diskreettisyyttä ja avoimuutta. Äärellisen väännön kuvaukset ovat yleistys kvasisäännöllisistä kuvauksista, jotka molemmat määritellään käyttämällä vääntöepäyhtälöä. Kvasisäännöllisille eli rajoitetun väännön kuvauksille voimassa olevat tulokset jatkuvuudesta, diskreettisyydestä ja avoimuudesta säilyvät myös äärelliseen vääntöön siirryttäessä. Tähän tarvitaan kuitenkin joitain oletuksia kuvauksen vääntöfunktiosta. Työssä konstruoidaan vastaesimerkkejä kuvauksista, joille nämä ominaisuudet eivät välttämättä ole voimassa. Tutkielman päätuloksina osoitetaan, että Sobolev-ava…
Kirkonrakentajasuku Rijf. Pohjalaisen kirkonrakentajasuvun rakennus- ja suunnittelutuotanto sekä toiminta kustavilaisen aikakauden Suomessa
2016
This dissertation deals with the building and design work of the church builder family Rijf in Österbotten during the Gustavian Period. The Rijfs were Finland- Swedes and entailed four mason-based master builders: Thomas Rijf (1726-1803), his sons Jacob (1753-1808) and Carl (1756-1801), and Jacob´s son Carl Jacobsson Rijf (1783-1808). The most famous member of the family was Jacob Rijf. He was the first Finnish master builder to study at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts and was supervised by the leading architects of the Board of Public Works and Buildings, Carl Fredrik Adelcrantz (1716-1796) and Olof Tempelman (1745-1816). In 1794 Jacob Rijf was appointed as the provincial master builder …
