Rhythmic Memory Consolidation in the Hippocampus

2022

Functions of the brain and body are oscillatory in nature and organized according to a logarithmic scale. Brain oscillations and bodily functions such as respiration and heartbeat appear nested within each other and coupled together either based on phase or based on phase and amplitude. This facilitates communication in wide-spread neuronal networks and probably also between the body and the brain. It is a widely accepted view, that nested electrophysiological brain oscillations involving the neocortex, thalamus, and the hippocampus form the basis of memory consolidation. This applies especially to declarative memories, that is, memories of life events, for example. Here, we present our vie…

Anomaly detection using one-class SVM with wavelet packet decomposition

2011

Anomaly detection has become a popular research topic in the field of machine learning. Support vector machine is one anomaly detection technique and it is coming one the most widely used. In this research, anomaly detection is applied to road condition monitoring, especially pothole detection, using accelerometer data. The proposed concept includes data preprocessing, feature extraction, feature selection and classification. Accelerometer data was first filtered and segmented, after which features were extracted with frequency- and time-domain functions, with genetic programming and with wavelet packet decomposition. A classification model was built using support vector machine and the cal…

Assessment of Occupational Health and Job Satisfaction in Workers with Intellectual Disability: A Job Demands–Resources Perspective

2021

In the contexts where people with intellectual disability work, there are factors that determine their job satisfaction. The objective of this study was to test the adequacy of the central assumptions of the Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) theory in workers with intellectual disability employed in different work alternatives. Data from 362 workers in sheltered workshops and 192 workers in supported employment were utilized. The model was contrasted using a structural equation model and a multi-group analysis. The results supported the suitability of the model and confirmed that job demands and job resources evoke two relatively independent processes such as health impairment and motivational p…

Teachers’ Emotional Intelligence, Burnout, Work Engagement, and Self-Efficacy during COVID-19 Lockdown

2023

Teachers’ psychological well-being is a crucial aspect that influences learning in a classroom climate. The aim of the study was to investigate teachers’ emotional intelligence, burnout, work engagement, and self-efficacy in times of remote teaching during COVID-19 lockdown. A sample of 65 teachers (Mage = 50.49), from early childhood through lower secondary education, were recruited during a period of school closure to answer self-report questionnaires and other measures assessing study variables. Results showed that during the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers reported higher levels of burnout and lower levels of self-esteem due to multiple challenges related to remote teaching and …

Formare educatori e insegnanti ludici

2020

Che cosa significa “formare insegnanti ed educatori ludici”? Partendo dal significato del termine “Ludico”, il saggio approfondisce in cosa consista la “capacità di giocare” con i bambini e di promuovere il loro gioco libero. Propone quindi una riflessione riguardo ad ambiti, percorsi e metodologie per la formazione sottolineando come questa debba essere caratterizzata: da un apprendimento centrato sull’esperienza, sull’osservazione e sull’auto-osservazione; dalla dimensione di gruppo; dalla interazione tra pari, da attività focalizzate sui linguaggi artistico-espressivi; da un’attenzione alla dimensione psico-corporea ed emotiva. Nella parte conclusiva viene presentato un possibile modello…

Jacy ludzie mogą liczyć na wsparcie? Ciemna triada i konwersacyjna niebezpośredniość jako predyktory wsparcia społecznego

2020

W przedstawionym badaniu wzięło udział 118 osób – 48 mężczyzn i 70 kobiet, w wieku między 18. a 65. rokiem życia (M = 24,70; SD = 10,90). Rekrutacji osób badanych dokonano za pomocą metody kuli śnieżnej drogą internetową. Głównym celem badania była eksploracja potencjalnych predyktorów wsparcia społecznego – ciemnej triady, czyli konstruktu, na który składają się trzy cechy uznawane za niepożądane: psychopatia, makiawelizm i narcyzm, a także stylu konwersacyjnej niebezpośredniości, czyli skłonności zarówno do generowania wypowiedzi, w których ukryte są jakieś treści, jak i do doszukiwania się niejawnych komunikatów w wypowiedziach innych. Dodatkowo sprawdzono, czy między zmiennymi wyjaśniaj…

Reasons for such behaviors vary: overprotection and excessive care, anxiety about the child, being in a hurry, which does not allow waiting for the child to bring the commenced action to the end. Wise rearing means resignation from relieving children, imposing requireme…
