Lasten ryhmäperustainen, verbaalis-kognitiivinen motoriikkaharjoittelu : interventiotutkimus
2010
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää miten opettajat pystyvät seulomaan yleisopetuksen alaluokilta lapsia, joilla on lieviä motorisen oppimisen vaikeuksia. Lisäksi tutkittiin 10 viikkoa kestäneen motoriikkaa kuntouttavan kognitiivisen harjoitusohjelman vaikutuksia. Kolmantena teemana oli motivaation ja mielialan kehittyminen kerhokerran aikana. Harjoitusohjelma toteutettiin koulun iltapäiväkerhona eräässä keskisuomalaisessa koulussa lukuvuonna 2009–2010. Osallistujat seulottiin neljältä alaluokalta (1–2lk) opettajien täyttämällä koordinaatiokyselyllä (Developmental Coordination Disorder -Questionnare, DCDQ ). Harjoittelun vaikutuksia selvitettiin alku-, loppu- ja pysyvyysmittauksilla, jo…
ROMOT: A Robotic 3D-Movie Theater Allowing Interaction and Multimodal Experiences
2017
In this paper we introduce ROMOT, a RObotic 3D-MOvie Theater. ROMOT is built with a robotic motion platform, includes multimodal devices and supports audience-film interaction. Differently from other similar systems, ROMOT is highly versatile as it can support different setups, integrated hardware and contents. Regarding to the setups, here we present a first-person movie, a mixed reality environment, a virtual reality interactive environment and an augmented reality mirror-based scene. Regarding to integrated hardware, the system currently integrates a variety of devices and displays that allow audiences to see, hear, smell, touch and feel the movement, all synchronized with the filmic exp…
Attivisti 5 Stelle a Palermo
2015
Nel 2005 nasce il primo Meetup palermitano, alla protesta contro i partiti unisce l’impegno ambientalista. Nel 2012 alle comunali la lista civica del Movimento 5 Stelle non raggiunge il 5%, ma diventa primo partito alle regionali (14,9%). Gli attivisti intervistati raccontano le diverse fasi del movimento a Palermo, tra successi e periodi critici. In 2005 the first Meetup arose in Palermo in order to protest against political parties and to support environmental issues. In 2012 the municipal civic list 5 Star Movement did not reach 5%, but it became the first party at the regional elections (14.9%). The interviewed activists illustrate the different stages of the movement in Palermo, descri…
Ronchamp: dalla stalla di Gut Garkau alla moschea di Sidi Brahim Ronchamp: from Gut Garkau stable to Sidi Brahim mosque
2015
Nel percorrere itinerari storici, apparentemente opposti, da una parte all'interno del Movimento Moderno e dall'altra attraverso lo studio delle moschee di El Atteuf (Algeria), si riscontra un punto di intersezione conosciuto ma inaspettato: la cappella di Ronchamp di Le Corbusier. Ronchamp dimostra come impossibili o quanto mai arbitrarie siano le catalogazioni di un’opera del genere, la quale può essere considerata sia come momento di sintesi del moderno (e non soltanto del Movimento Moderno), sia come trait d’union fra due diversi mondi, l’islamico e il cristiano, integrati spesso soltanto all’interno di un rapporto di forza che ha visto prevalere, a seconda dei tempi, l’uno o l’altro se…
Análisis del tiempo de lucha y no lucha en taekwondistas cadetes
2016
La relación entre los tiempos de lucha (L) y no lucha (NL) ha sido utilizada para caracterizar las demandas físicas del taekwondo. El objetivo del presente estudio es analizar el tiempo de L y NL en función de la categoría de competición en taekwondistas cadetes (12-14 años). Se analizaron las fases del tiempo de movimiento (L y NL) de 47 combates del primer Campeonato del Mundo Cadete en función de la categoría de competición (minimosca, mosca, gallo, pluma, ligero, superligero, semimedio, medio, semipesado y pesado). Se utilizó el test Kruskal-Wallis seguido de las pruebas por pares de U de Mann Whitney para analizar las diferencias entre grupos (p < 0,05). Se encontraron diferencias sign…
Comment on "Human Neuroblasts Migrate to the Olfactory Bulb via a Lateral Ventricular Extension"
2007
Curtis et al . (Research Articles, 2 March 2007, p. 1243) claimed discovery of a human neuronal migratory stream to the olfactory bulb along a putative lateral ventricular extension. However, high levels of proliferation reported with proliferating cell nuclear antigen were not confirmed using different markers, neuronal chain migration was not demonstrated, and no serial reconstruction shows a true ventricular extension.
Charles Darwin and ideology : rethinking the Darwinian revolution
2016
This short paper critiques the idea of any coherent Darwinian ideology. Charles Darwin himself did not adopt any obvious ideology, except perhaps that of anti-slavery. However, his published work, and that of other evolutionists, led to the emergence of social Darwinism. Herbert Spencer’s role in fostering social Darwinism, and the rise of eugenics, are briefly described. The connection, if any, between the historical figure of Darwin and the social movement that bears his name is discussed. While Darwin’s On the origin of species or The descent of man can hardly account for all the racial stereotyping, nationalism, or political bigotry seen in the half century after his death, there can be…
Looking Across Instead of Back and Forth: How the Simultaneous Presentation of Multiple Animation Episodes Facilitates Learning
2017
Many learning tasks require students to induce higher-order relationships from the learning material. Compare and contrast processes play a pivotal role in solving such inductive tasks. Different presentations of animation episodes offer affordances to students that can either impede or facilitate compare and contrast processes. While conventional behaviorally realistic animations typically present multiple episodes one after the other, i.e. sequentially, simultaneous presentation offers a feasible alternative. We investigated how the sequential and simultaneous presentation of multiple animation episodes affects students’ perceptual interrogation of the animation as well as their learning …
Headquarters’ Control Capacity and the Choice of R&D Organizational Forms Abroad
2013
International audience; Recently, regarding globalization, the decentralization of R&D activities abroad by multinational companies (MNCs) has become important in developed countries. However, academic research has not given this topic sufficient attention. This paper explains how the efficiency of control and incentive mechanisms may affect the choice of organizational forms by MNCs that decentralize their R&D activities abroad. We identify five main organizational forms: wholly owned green-field subsidiary, wholly owned acquired subsidiary, joint venture, cross-licensing agreements, and unilateral licensing agreements. A questionnaire addressed to the R&D managers of American and European…
T-patterns in the study of movement and behavioral disorders
2020
Aim of the present review is to offer an outline of the application of T-pattern analysis (TPA) in the study of neurological disorders characterized by anomalies of movement and, more in general, of behavior. TPA is a multivariate technique to detect real time patterns of behavior on the basis of statistically significant constraints among the events in sequence. TPA is particularly suitable to analyse the structure of behavior. The application of TPA to study movement and behavioral disorders is able to offer, with a high level of detail, hidden characteristics of behavior otherwise impossible to detect. For its intrinsic features, TPA is completely different not only from quantitative eva…
