Anna hyvät eväät : visuaalinen ja kielellinen analyysi elintarvikkeiden televisiomainoksista
2016
Elämme jatkuvasti medioituvassa maailmassa, jossa yksi televisiomainos voi tavoittaa jopa yli miljoona katsojaa. Mainosten tehtävänä on aina vaikuttaa katsojaan, ja tästä syystä ne ovatkin tärkeä tutkimuskohde. Mainokset eivät ainoastaan peilaa meidän maailmaamme, vaan myös rakentavat merkityksiä ja nostavat tietyt arvot esiin toisten kustannuksella. Näitä arvoja ja merkityksiä on syytä tarkastella kriittisesti jopa kaikkein tutuimmista arkemme teksteistä. Tutkielmassani syvennyn mainonnan keinoihin tutkiessani, millaisia arvoja ja asenteita Valio Oy:n ja Arla Oy:n mainoksissa nousee esiin, ja millaista todellisuuskuvaa niissä representoidaan. Tutkimukseni tarkoituksena onkin selvittää, mil…
Letter Position Coding Across Modalities: The Case of Braille Readers
2012
BackgroundThe question of how the brain encodes letter position in written words has attracted increasing attention in recent years. A number of models have recently been proposed to accommodate the fact that transposed-letter stimuli like jugde or caniso are perceptually very close to their base words.MethodologyHere we examined how letter position coding is attained in the tactile modality via Braille reading. The idea is that Braille word recognition may provide more serial processing than the visual modality, and this may produce differences in the input coding schemes employed to encode letters in written words. To that end, we conducted a lexical decision experiment with adult Braille…
Influence of Perioperative cis-Platinum on Breaking Strength of Bowel Anastomoses in Rats
1985
Adjuvant and perioperative chemotherapy is increasingly being used in the treatment of malignant disease. Therefore, the influence of cytostatic drugs is of interest and is being investigated experimentally. The influence of various drugs is well known and has been described elsewhere (Shamberger et al. 1981). Recently, cis-platinum, an inorganic complex that inhibits DNA synthesis by cross-linking DNA strands, has been introduced. In urology it has shown a surprisingly good effect on testicular tumors and has been used in bladder cancer for palliative treatment, being one of the most potent drugs for this purpose (Yagoda 1979). It is now being combined with cystectomy for curative therapy …
Safety of the current drug treatments for vitiligo
2020
Introduction: Vitiligo is an acquired depigmenting skin disorder adversely affecting the patient's quality of life. Despite the presence of several treatment modalities, ranging from medical to physical to surgical options, none is curative. Each modality has its own drawbacks and side effects. Thus, the treatment modality needs to be tailored for each individual patient taking into consideration the disease characteristics and also its efficacy and safety to obtain a favorable risk-benefit ratio.Areas covered: This review highlights the different treatment modalities utilized in vitiligo up until 4 November 2019 along with their adverse effects and contraindications, if any.Expert opinion:…
Mode-superposition correction method for deterministic and stochastic analysis of structural systems
2001
The role played by the modal analysis in the framework of structural dynamics is fundamental from both deterministic and stochastic point of view. However the accuracy obtained by means of the classical modal analysis is not always satisfactory. Therefore it is clear the importance of methods able to correct the modal response in such a way to obtain the required accuracy. Many methods have been proposed in the last years but they are meaningful only when the forcing function is expressed by an analytical function. Moreover in stochastic analysis they fail for white noise excitation. In the paper a method able to give a very accurate response for both deterministic and stochastic input is p…
Akomodācijas atpalikšana pirms un pēc tuvuma darba
2015
Bakalaura darbs uzrakstīts latviešu valodā, datorsalikumā uz 39 lappusēm un satur 14 attēlus, 2 tabulas, un tajā ir izmantots 30 literatūras avoti. Darba mērķis: Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot, kā akomodācijas atpalikšanu ietekmē tuvuma darbs pie datora monitora un cik ātri normalizējas šī akomodācijas atpalikšana, izmantojot modificēto retinoskopijas metodi. Metode: ar modificētās dinamiskās retinoskopijas Nott metodi tika novērtēta akomodācijas atpalikšana un tās izmaiņas eksperimenta dalībniekiem 2 stundu gara tuvuma darba laikā pie datora monitoriem un tika mērīts laiks, cik ātri akomodācijas atpalikšanas vērtība normalizēsies pēc tuvuma darba. Rezultāti un secinājumi: Akomodācijas atpalikš…
Stochastic response determination of structural systems modeled via dependent coordinates: a frequency domain treatment based on generalized modal an…
2019
Generalized independent coordinates are typically utilized within an analytical dynamics framework to model the motion of structural and mechanical engineering systems. Nevertheless, for complex systems, such as multi-body structures, an explicit formulation of the equations of motion by utilizing generalized, independent, coordinates can be a daunting task. In this regard, employing a set of redundant coordinates can facilitate the formulation of the governing dynamics equations. In this setting, however, standard response analysis techniques cannot be applied in a straightforward manner. For instance, defining and determining a transfer function within a frequency domain response analysis…
The Psychobiosocial States (PBS-S) Scale
2019
Abstract. This study examined the factor structure and reliability of the Psychobiosocial States (PBS-S) scale in the assessment of situational performance-related experiences. We administered the scale to 483 Finnish athletes before a practice session to assess the intensity and perceived impact of their performance-related feeling states. The hypothesized two-factor structure indicating functional effects (10 items) and dysfunctional effects (10 items) toward performance was examined via exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Regarding the intensity and perceived impact dimensions of reported states, ESEM and CFA showed a good fit for a tw…
Language Mediation and Aspects of Accommodation in the Use of ELF
2014
There are numerous varieties of English spoken in Italy today, each repre-sented by one or more of the various migrant communities living in the country. These manifestations of World englishes reflect a wide range of lexical, syntactical, phonetic, pragmatic, interpersonal and cultural features. This paper argues that an interpreter or language mediator trained in standard English may not necessarily be able to comprehend or make him/herself understood adequately in other varieties of English. Thus, the recruitment of mediators/interpreters requires a certain amount of caution in terms of language choice. In order to investigate intelligibility, comprehensibility and accommodation in the c…
