A new method of tonality perception research
2009
The methods used in tonality perception research are various, like counting the appearance rate of tonic, accumulating the duration of tones in a scale, the "probe-tone" technique, etc. However, the purpose of different methods is the same that is to try to build a model of tonality perception. The profiles of tones drawn from the above mentioned methods are quite similar. Theoretically, the cone model and tone hierarchy, the rare-intervals theory and the intervallic rivalry theory provide explanation for tonality perception processing. This study with a new method tries to explain the tonality perception from the priming effect view and tries to solve the conflicts between different theori…
Attitudes and related perceptions about product placement: a comparison of Finland, Italy and the United States
2015
The primary goal of our study is to explore cross-national differences in attitudes and perceptions about product placements, after investigating measurement invariance. Our cross-national focus includes three countries that have not been compared previously: Finland, Italy and the USA, which differ significantly in terms of the evolution/maturity of product placement markets, regulatory structures and cultural contexts. Motivated by earlier studies, we investigate the cross-national measurement invariance of scales to measure four research constructs related to the product placement domain (attitude toward credibility of advertising, attitude toward advertising-in-general, attitude toward …

Prose fiction in the English classoom : perceptions of IB students
2013
Kirjallisuuden opiskelun merkitystä kielenoppimisessa on tutkittu laajalti, ja se on todettu tärkeäksi ja toimivaksi menetelmäksi. Opiskelijoiden omat näkemykset asiasta saattavat myös vaikuttaa oppimistuloksiin, mutta ne ovat aikaisemmassa tutkimuksessa jääneet huomiotta. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää, pitävätkö oppilaat kirjallisuuden opiskelua hyvänä tapana oppia englannin kieltä. Tutkimus kohdentuu kansainvälisen IB-tutkinnon opiskelijoihin, koska siinä vieraan kielen laajan tason (higher level) opetussuunnitelmaan kuuluu oleellisena osana kirjallisuusanalyysi. Tutkielmassa kartoitetaan laajan tason ja suppeamman tason (standard level) opiskelijoiden näkemyksiä kirjallisuuden kä…
Olika fonetiska drags relativa betydelse för upplevd inföddlikhet i svenska
2017
I den här undersökningen analyseras olika fonetiska drags betydelse för upplevd inföddlikhet i sverigesvenska som andraspråk. Lyssnarna (n = 39) bedömde uttalets målspråklighet i imiterade talprov. Resultaten visar att de segmentella målspråksavvikelserna hade störst betydelse för upplevd inföddlikhet. Målspråksavvikelserna i yttrandeintonation, rytm och tonaccenterna påverkade inte lyssnarna i samma utsträckning som de segmentella bristerna. Prov med L2-intonation och målspråkliga segment fick lika bra bedömning – på gränsen mellan uppfattbar och icke-uppfattbar brytning – som prov med målspråklig intonation och målspråkliga segment. Om segmenten var målspråkliga, fick prov med L2-aktig ry…
Perceived risk, illness perception and dispositional optimism related to COVID-19 among oncologic outpatients undergoing in-hospital treatments and h…
2022
Objective This study aimed to explore risk estimations (perceived risk, dispositional optimism) related to COVID-19 perception and distress in oncologic outpatients undergoing active hospital treatments compared to the general population. Design and Main Outcome Measures Data were collected during the Italian lockdown on 150 oncologic outpatients and a sample of 150 healthy subjects. They completed a battery of questionnaires including the Perceived Risk scale, the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, the Life Orientation Test- Revised and the Patient Health Questionnaire-4. Descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and a moderated mediation model were performed to test the study hyp…

Mi descrivi il tuo disegno del Mattoncino Lego? Un’esperienza didattica di matematica nella scuola dell’infanzia
2018
La consapevolezza dell’importanza di guardare, attraverso una lente di tipo matematico, i disegni prodotti dai bambini, considerandoli come strumento diagnostico per quello che D’Amore et al. (2004) chiamano come il “Campo di Esperienza” Spazio, Ordine e Misura, ha dato spunto a questo contributo che discute una sperimentazione didattica condotta in una sezione di scuola dell’infanzia (5 anni). All’interno della stessa è stato chiesto ai bambini di rappresentare dei mattoncini Lego con un disegno, e di descrivere successivamente i propri elaborati rintracciando e argomentando in essi eventuali segni di scarto numerico-spaziali rispetto al mattoncino osservato/manipolato, attraverso visioni …
Harry Francis Mallgrave. L'empatia degli spazi. Architettura e neuroscienze
2015
Le informazioni che possiamo acquisire sul molteplice aspetto della realtà passano attraverso la percezione sensoriale che il nostro corpo ha dell’esterno. La relazione fra il corpo e l’architettura è proprio il tema centrale intorno al quale si snoda il libro di Harry Francis Mallgrave che, in quanto pioniere degli studi sull'applicazione delle neuroscienze alla teoria architettonica, svela attraverso "L’empatia degli spazi" la potenza e la forza del corpo nel costruire le forme della realtà. Information we can acquire on the multiple aspect of reality passes through sensory perception that our body has of the outside. The relationship between body and architecture is the central topic of …
