How not to Resist the Natural Kind Talk in Biology
2019
Abstract: After the dawn of the traditional, essentialist view of natural kinds in contemporary philosophy (exacerbated in philosophy of biology by “population thinking”), non-essentialist cluster conceptions of natural kinds have been extensively supported and applied to numerous biological categories. However, salient philosophers have put forward two challenging arguments against cluster kind theories. I argue that, in both cases, discontent with a cluster conception of natural kinds is motivated by tacit and previous assumptions that can be challenged. I conclude that the concerns expressed in the objections do not make good reasons to resist natural kinds talk in biology unless one is …
Onset of convection in a porous rectangular channel with external heat transfer to upper and lower fluid environments
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: Transport in Porous Media. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11242-012-0018-9 The conditions for the onset of convection in a horizontal rectangular channel filled with a fluid saturated porous medium are studied. The vertical sidewalls are assumed to be impermeable and adiabatic. The horizontal upper and lower boundary walls are considered as impermeable and subject to external heat transfer, modelled through a third-kind boundary condition on the temperature field. The external fluid environments above and below the channel, kept at different temperatures, provide the heating-from-below mechanism which may lead…
Depression bei Kindern und Jugendlichen: Prävalenz, Diagnostik, ätiologische Faktoren, Geschlechtsunterschiede, therapeutische Ansätze
2007
Die Prävalenzraten für die verschiednen Formen von Depression (depressiven Stimmungen, depressiven Syndromen und Major Depression) haben in den letzten Jahren zugenommen, die Geschlechtsunterschiede mit deutlich höheren Raten für Mädchen haben sich erhöht. Als ätiologische Faktoren für das Auftreten von Depression werden u. a. zunehmende Stressfaktoren, dysfunktionale Bewältigungsstile, ein negatives Körperkonzept und unsichere Bindungsmuster genannt. Unter den verschiedenen therapeutischen Ansätzen hat sich die psychoananlytische Behandlungsmethode als die umfassendste erwiesen. Schlüsselwörter Prävalenzraten - Komorbidität - Stress - Coping - Körperkonzept - Bindung Prevalence rates of th…
A functional variant of the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) moderates impulsive choice in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder boys and sibli…
2011
Item does not contain fulltext BACKGROUND: Impulsive drive for immediate reward (IDIR) and delay aversion are dissociable elements of the preference for immediate over delayed rewards seen in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We hypothesized that IDIR would be associated with dopamine regulating genes and delay aversion would be associated with serotonin-regulating genes. METHODS: Impulsive drive for immediate reward and delay aversion were measured in 459 male children and adolescents (328 ADHD and 131 unaffected siblings) with a laboratory choice task. The sample was genotyped for the 5HTT (SLC6A4) promoter serotonin-transporter-linked polymorphic region polymorphism and a …

Alla periferia del mondo, ai margini dell’umano. Felicità e dolore in Diodoro
2020
In the proem of his Bibliotheke, Diodorus Siculus states that a historian should provide knowledge for all mankind. Hence, the value of a historian is not measured by his ability to gather in a single narrative stories of men from all times all over the world. What matters is the way in which the common human nature of all of the actors in history emerges. This contribution focuses on the first part of Book III, in particular on the Ichthyophagoi and Acridophagoi, where the historian’s gaze oscillates between idealisation and compassion towards such primitive peoples. The diodorean ethnographic report has the merit to provide a backdrop to some of the guidelines of the cultural debate in th…
Restricted 123-avoiding Baxter permutations and the Padovan numbers
2007
AbstractBaxter studied a particular class of permutations by considering fixed points of the composite of commuting functions. This class is called Baxter permutations. In this paper we investigate the number of 123-avoiding Baxter permutations of length n that also avoid (or contain a prescribed number of occurrences of) another certain pattern of length k. In several interesting cases the generating function depends only on k and is expressed via the generating function for the Padovan numbers.
Generating restricted classes of involutions, Bell and Stirling permutations
2010
AbstractWe present a recursive generating algorithm for unrestricted permutations which is based on both the decomposition of a permutation as a product of transpositions and that as a union of disjoint cycles. It generates permutations at each recursive step and slight modifications of it produce generating algorithms for Bell permutations and involutions. Further refinements yield algorithms for these classes of permutations subject to additional restrictions: a given number of cycles or/and fixed points. We obtain, as particular cases, generating algorithms for permutations counted by the Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, even permutations, fixed-point-free involutions and d…
Dažādības izpratnes veicināšana sešus gadus veciem bērniem literatūras nodarbībās starptautiskajā skolā
2020
Ar dažādību saistīto problēmu aktualitāte izglītībā kļūst arvien izplatītāka. Maģistra darbā ir izpētītas starptautisko skolēnu un skolotāju attieksmes par dažādību saistītām tēmām, ar mērķi veicināt skolēnos izpratni par dažādības jēdzieniem literatūras stundu laikā, izmantojot literatūru kā galveno mācību līdzekli. Darbā tiek izmantotas jauktas metodes pētījums, kura pamatā ir skolēnu uzvedības analīze literatūras stundās, kas fokusējas uz dažādības tematiem; sākumsskolas skolotāju aptaujas rezultātu analīze un divu klases audzinātāju interviju analīze. Rezultātā tiek secināts, ka šī vecuma bērniem jau ir izveidojusies attieksme par dažādības tematiem. Vairums aptaujāto pedagogu uzskata, …
