Conceptual knowledge‐based strategy training in single‐digit calculation: a single case intervention study in a child with specific language impairme…

2009

The aim of this single‐case intervention study was to examine whether a conceptual knowledge‐based strategy training would improve the accuracy of single‐digit arithmetical calculation in a child with specific language impairment. The intervention concerned an11‐year‐old Finnish‐speaking child with specific language impairment. He was trained individually once a week for three months. On the basis of his baseline performance single‐digit arithmetical problems were divided into ‘well‐known arithmetical problems’ and ‘error‐prone arithmetical problems’. Error‐prone problems were taught in meaningful relation to well‐known problems, which he repeatedly solved correctly by using arithmetical fa…

Generalization of novel names for relations in comparison settings: the role of conceptual distance during learning and at test

2018

International audience; Relational categories are notoriously difficult to learn. We studied the impact of comparison on relational concept learning with a novel word learning task in 3- and 4-year olds. We contrasted a no-comparison (single) condition and two comparison conditions. In the latter case, the set of learning pairs was composed of either close or far pairs (e.g., close pair: knife1- watermelon, knife2-orange; far pair: ax-evergreen tree, saw-log, for the “cutter for” relation). We also manipulated the transfer stimuli semantic distance (near or distant semantic domain, e.g., a scissor for a piece of paper in the close case, and a shaver for a face in the far domain case). The n…

Gender and the gynecological examination: women's identities in doctors' narratives.

2007

The authors explore the constructions of gender in male doctors' narratives of gynecological examinations. Focusing on the ways in which gender identities are constructed in the stories of the medical encounter, they argue, first, that gender is more flexible during the visit with a gynecologist than has been suggested. Gendered identities are assumed and put aside as the interaction progresses, with its final stage—the pelvic examination—being constructed with gender removed. Second, they argue that undressing is invested with a special status during the examination. It is a gendered rite of passage between the two different ungendered subject positions of the doctor and the patient. They …

Brachyodonty and hypsodontyin some Palaeogene Eurasiatic Lagomorphs

1977

Abstract Palaeogene Eurasiatic lagomorphs show more or less different degrees and kinds of brachiodonty and hypsodonty in the cheek teeth. No fully brachyodont lagomorphs are known up to the present. The probably Paleocene Mimolagus from Western Kansu shows the less advanced stage against partial hypsodonty in the upper cheek teeth. Partial hypsodonty is more advanced in the late Eocene Mongolian genera Shamolagus, Gobiolagus and Lushilagus. Roots, however, are still well developed in the cheek teeth. Some recent discoveries from earlier Oligocene sites in France and Germany seem to represent a comparable degree of hypsodonty. The Asiatic Oligocene Desmatolagus is partiallyhypsodont with ro…

Abstract This article explores trolling as a form of literary activity. It presents a number of specific types of trolling on the Russian-language Internet in connection with digital literature and the literary practices of various groups of Internet users. Techniques for writing provocative “troll-texts” were created and developed within subcultural groups in the 1990s. Later, from being a subversive practice known only to a few insiders, it became a mass technique described in meta-texts that identified rules for trolling and shared facts about its culture with all interested users. In the 2010s, the now popularised techniques of trolling came to be seen as effective strategies to deploy …

Screen or paper. Reading construction in digital and analogical context in speakers of nearby languages

2018

En este trabajo se pretende delinear la importancia de conocer explícitamente los condicionantes del proceso de lectura desde una perspectiva contextual (digital y analógica) para una optimización del proceso de aprendizaje en hablantes de lenguas afines. Para ello, se diseñó una prueba cuantitativa mediante la cual poder medir de manera más objetiva posible la capacidad de construcción de un cerebro lingüístico cuya lengua materna posee afinidades tan marcadas como es el portugués en relación con el español. Realizar un punto de comparación entre ambos grupos nos ayudó a conocer el nivel en el que los alumnos usan de una manera más o menos completa el sesgo informativo como elemento de aho…
