Silent Reading and Aural Models in Pianists’ Mental Practice
2016
This study addresses musicians’ learning outcomes and subjective experiences in two common types of mental practice: silent score reading and score reading while listening to the music. The study incorporates expert ratings of performances before and after mental practice, questionnaire data concerning modal preferences, as well as semi-structured interviews. The results revealed individual differences in learning outcomes, attitudes toward the two types of mental practice, and the use of imagery. The participants’ attitudes and strategies were variously affected by their ability to audiate newly encountered music, their possible preference for learning by ear, and their need to process the…
Mācīšanās un zināšanu apmaiņas prakses starp programmētājiem
2021
Maģistra darba mērķis ir pētīt programmētāju mācīšanās prakses un savstarpējo attiecību nozīmi tajās. Balstoties uz ilgtermiņa programmētāju kopienas etnogrāfisku izpēti, maģistra darbā pētu programmēšanu un programmēšanas mācīšanos kā prakses, kā šīs prakses iederas formālajā un neformālajā izglītības ietvarā un kādas ir kopienas attiecības šo prakšu ietvaros. Pamata datu ievākšanas metodes ir padziļinātas, daļēji strukturētas intervijas, līdzdalīgie novērojumi, kā arī auto etnogrāfisko pierakstu analīze. Šīs prakses tiek kontekstualizētas, izmantojot prakses un reciprocitātes teorētisko perspektīvu. Galvenās novērotās prakses starp programmētājiem ir pašmācība un mācīšanās kopienas ietvar…
La ética profesional y la autonomía de lo jurídico en el derecho del futuro
2019
The aim of this article is to examine how and why – in the current legal context, and because of some relevant changes that are ripening – the legal practice is supported by a solid professional ethics of the legal roles, summed up in the respect of the rule of law. Other elements that in the past seemed crucial to explain the legal order nowadays are inadequate and a legal theory without considering the role of lawyers is incomplete. After indicating the changes in the background, it will follow an analysis of the legal professional ethics and the reasons of its specificity. Against what is supported by the recent literature about eliminativism in legal philosophy, the perspective of profe…

Exploring the impact of sustainable value proposition on firm performance
2022
Considering the immense potential of sustainable business models in tackling the broader challenge of corporate sustainability, this paper integrates the literature streams on sustainability practices and organizational business models to analyze the performance implications of a firm's sustainable value proposition. Based on the analysis of a large panel dataset across different industries, consistent with the proposed theory, a sustainable value proposition has been found to have a positive impact on a firm's market-based financial performance (namely, Tobin's Q). Yet, this impact turns out to be highly context-dependent. In particular, the findings reveal that a firm's R&D capabilities i…

L’instrumentum métallique lié à la cuisine en Gaule romaine
2013
The metal finds associated to storage, food and liquids preparation and cooking comprise multipurpose and specific instruments. The first two phases are illustrated by rather few utensils: buckets, barrels, jugs and boilers, knives and other cleavers. Three cooking patterns are used for the third phase. The first one, simmering, needs hinged cauldrons, assembled or in one piece, maintained above the hearth by suspension chains, but also cauldrons and pots (jars) put down on cooking stands. Grilling needs gridirons, firedogs, braziers and roast spits. At last, for quick cooking with the supply of fat or water which allow to sear food pans and cooking stands are mainly being used. Small imple…
Young People's Emerging Multilingual Practices : Learning Language or Literacy, or Both?
2019
Research on language learning and research on literacy are typically seen as two separate strands of enquiry and thus the concepts of language and literacy have traditionally been kept apart. This is partly due to epistemological questions related to language and literacy. In this chapter, I will discuss these concepts in the context of multilingualism. Approaching multilingual language use from the perspective of literacy practices enables us to look beyond language to social practices and to examine the relationship between the concepts of language and literacy, literacy practices and language learning. Two data sets are used to illustrate how language, literacy, and language learning are…
Prevalence and morphometric analysis of the retromolar canal in a Spanish population sample: a helical CT scan study.
2021
BACKGROUND: The retromolar canal (RMC) is an anatomical variation of the mandibular canal (MC) whose identification and study should be considered given its implication in the surgical procedures of the retromolar area. The prevalence of the RMC widely varies according to previous studies and may be influenced by the followed study method. This work aimed to evaluate the prevalence of the RMC in a Spanish population sample. MATERIAL AND METHODS: For this purpose, 225 CT scan images (with a higher resolution than the cone beam CT used in other previous studies) from the Hospital Clinico Universitario de Valencia were analyzed. The Osirix MD radiological image analysis system was applied to a…
Noninvasive Ventilation in Critically Ill Patients
2015
Since its first application in the late 1980s, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been the first-line intervention for certain forms of acute respiratory failure. NIV may be delivered through the patient's mouth, nose, or both using noninvasive intermittent positive pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure. When applied appropriately, NIV may reduce morbidity and mortality and may avert iatrogenic complications and infections associated with invasive mechanical ventilation. This article provides physicians and respiratory therapists with a comprehensive, practical guideline for using NIV in critical care. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.
