Cietušais kriminālprocesa izpratnē
2019
Bakalaura darba temats ir “Cietušais kriminālprocesa izpratnē”. Cietušais kriminālprocesā ir persona, kurai ar noziedzīgu nodarījumu nodarīts kaitējums – fizisks, morāls vai mantisks. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir izprast cietušā jēdziena būtību kriminālprocesa ietvaros, kā arī to, kādā veidā cietusī persona var tikt atzīta par cietušo kriminālprocesā. Bakalaura darbā tiks pētīts arī ne tik sen ieviestu īpaši aizsargājamā cietušā institūtu un tā nozīmi kriminālprocesā. Mērķa sasniegšanai autore bakalaura darbā centās nošķirt jēdzienu “upuris” no jēdziena “cietušais” kriminālprocesa izpratnē. Tika pētīts kādas izmaiņas ir skārušas Kriminālprocesa likumu pēc Direktīvas 29/12/ES ieviešanas un kā š…
Designing motion-based activities to engage students with autism in classroom settings
2015
We report on a nine-month-long observational study with teachers and students with autism in a classroom setting. We explore the impact of motion-based activities on students' behavior. In particular, we examine how the playful gaming activity impacted students' engagement, peer-directed social behaviors, and motor skills. We document the effectiveness of a collaborative game in supporting initiation of social activities between peers, and in eliciting novel body movements that students were not observed to produce outside of game play. We further identify the positive impact of game play on overall classroom engagement. This includes an "audience effect" whereby non-playing peers direct in…
Dance to your own drum: Identification of musical genre and individual dancer from motion capture using machine learning
2020
Machine learning has been used to accurately classify musical genre using features derived from audio signals. Musical genre, as well as lower-level audio features of music, have also been shown to...
On the feasibility of personal audio systems over a network of distributed loudspeakers
2018
Los sistemas de reproducción de audio personal se ocupan de la creación de zonas sonoras personales dentro de una habitación sin necesidad de utilizar auriculares. Estos sistemas utilizan un conjunto de altavoces y diseñan los filtros necesarios en cada altavoz con el fin de que la señal de audio deseada llegue a cada persona en la sala lo más libre de interferencias posible. Existen propuestas muy interesantes en la literatura que hacen uso de arrays circulares o lineales, pero en este trabajo estudiamos el problema considerando una red de altavoces distribuidos controlados por un conjunto de nodos acústicos, que pueden intercambiar información a través de una red. Enunciamos el modelo de …
Transforming Experience: The Potential of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality for Enhancing Personal and Clinical Change
2016
During life, many personal changes occur. These include changing house, school, work, and even friends and partners. However, the daily experience shows clearly that, in some situations, subjects are unable to change even if they want to. The recent advances in psychology and neuroscience are now providing a better view of personal change, the change affecting our assumptive world: (a) the focus of personal change is reducing the distance between self and reality (conflict); (b) this reduction is achieved through (1) an intense focus on the particular experience creating the conflict or (2) an internal or external reorganization of this experience; (c) personal change requires a progression…
The moderator role of followers’ personality traits in the relations between leadership styles, two types of task performance and work result satisfa…
2014
Authentic leadership is changing our understanding of what makes good leadership. However, few studies have explored how followers’ individual differences and the nature of the task they perform affect its relation to followers’ work outcomes. We examine the moderator role of two core task types (intellective vs. generative) and two personality traits (conscientiousness and emotional stability) in the relationship between two leadership feedback styles (authentic vs. transactional) and task performance or work result satisfaction in a two-wave experiment. The sample consisted of 228 participants enrolled in an organizational psychology course, 34% of whom had work experience. Our results sh…
Semantic Verbal Fluency in Children with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder: Relationship with Chronological Age and IQ
2016
We administered a semantic verbal fluency (SVF) task to two groups of children (age range from 5 to 8): 47 diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD Group) and 53 with typical development (Comparison Group), matched on gender, chronological age, and non-verbal IQ. Four specific indexes were calculated from the SVF task, reflecting the different underlying cognitive strategies used: clustering (component of generativity and lexical-semantic access), and switching (executive component, cognitive flexibility). First, we compared the performance of the two groups on the different SVF task indicators, with the ASD group scoring lower than the Comparison Group, although the difference was grea…
Efectos de la inteligencia emocional sobre la intención y la autoeficacia emprendedora
2014
Past studies associated emotional intelligence with positive workplace outcomes, such as job performance and job satisfaction. However, to date, the relationship between emotional intelligence and individual differences in entrepreneurship has been scarcely examined. In this study, the contribution of emotional intelligence dimensions to entrepreneurial potential is explored, controlling for the influence of personality traits and demographic variables. Using a sample of 394 participants, it has been tested, by means of multiple hierarchical regression analyses, the mediating role of entrepreneurial self-efficacy in the relationship between emotional intelligence dimensions and the intentio…
Effects of emotional intelligence on entrepreneurial intention and self-efficacy
2014
Estudios previos relacionan la inteligencia emocional con resultados positivos en el puesto de trabajo, tales como el desempeño y la satisfacción laboral. Sin embargo, la relación entre la inteligencia emocional y las diferencias individuales en emprendimiento han sido escasamente examinadas. En el presente estudio se analiza el efecto de las dimensiones de la inteligencia emocional sobre el potencial emprendedor, tras controlar la influencia de los rasgos de personalidad y variables demográficas. Concretamente, con una muestra de 394 participantes, por medio de análisis de regresión jerárquica, se pone a prueba el rol mediador de la auto-eficacia emprendedora en la relación entre las dimen…
Arte e Identidad. En torno a la obra del artista Alfred Kubin
1999
Alfred Leopold Isidor Kubin nació en Leitmeritz, Bohemia, en 1877, y falleció en 1959 en Zwickledt, Austria, en el pequeño castillo de su propiedad en el que residía desde el otoño de 1906. Su obra goza de alta estima, sobre todo en el área cultural germánica, tanto en su faceta plástica, pues Kubin fue un reconocido pintor, dibujante e ilustrador de gran producción, insólita originalidad y constantes colaboraciones gráficas a lo largo de más de 60 años, como en su vertiente literaria, porque, junto a múltiples artículos, narraciones, y un amplio epistolario, escribió en 1908 una célebre novela premonitoria, Die andere Seiul, similar al universo de Kafk.a, que influyó grandemente en los sur…
