Tonoplast intrinsic proteins from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis): immunological analysis, cDNA cloning and evidence for expression …
1998
The vacuolar membrane (tonoplast) of plant cells contains aquaporins, protein channels that facilitate the selective transport of water. These tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) of 23-29 kDa belong to the ancient major intrinsic protein (MIP) family. A monospecific polyclonal antiserum directed against a 26 kDa intrinsic protein from the tonoplast of meristematic cells from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis) was used to screen a cDNA library. Two distinct cDNAs have been isolated. Both clones, c26-1 and c26-2, encode closely related TIPs. The c26-1 insert, consisting of 933 bp upstream of the poly(A) tail, is a full-length cDNA with an open reading frame encoding a protein of…
Clustering the mediators between the sales control systems and the sales performance using the AMO model: A narrative systematic literature review
2018
[EN] Purpose: To identify all types of sales force control systems in the academic literature, and to cluster the mediators between these controls and the performances, according to the AMO model (abilities, motivations, and opportunities), analysing how each of these three groups of mediators are influenced by control systems, and how they impact on the sales performance, using a systematic literature review. Design/methodology: Scientific papers published during the last 32 years, using as databases: Business Source Premier (EBSCO), Science Direct, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Business, Management and Social Sciences were taken as selection fields. False positives identific…
On the role of the upper part of words in lexical access: evidence with masked priming.
2012
More than 100 years ago, Huey (1908) indicated that the upper part of words was more relevant for perception than the lower part. Here we examined whether mutilated words, in their upper/lower portions (e.g., , , , ), can automatically access their word units in the mental lexicon. To that end, we conducted four masked repetition priming experiments with the lexical decision task. Results showed that mutilated primes produced a sizeable masked repetition priming effect. Furthermore, the magnitude of the masked repetition priming effect was greater when the upper part of the primes was preserved than when the lower portion was preserved –this was the case not only when the mutilated words we…
Role of school principals in high achievement of students
2019
The role of the principal in a school is critical because a principal is not only an administrator, but also a manager, initiator of various processes and, ideally, also a school leader who furthers various processes in the school and facilitates high achievement among the students. It is therefore important to study the role of the principal and how the principal can facilitate student achievement. The aim of the research study is to carry out a comparative analysis of data from several countries to find out the factors associated with the activities of the principal (directions of professional activity, factors created by the school culture and environment) that facilitate high achievemen…
Baco o San Juan Bautista: lectura de un cuadro de Leonardo da Vinci
2019
We make a reading of the painting Bacchus or St John the Baptist, based on a method that applies to it the classic myth of Dionysus-Bacchus. We divide its content into three parts: 1. Introduction (objective and method; the double name, Dionysus-Bacchus; narration of the myth in ΝόννοςΠανοπολίτης) 2. Reading of the painting(hipothesis of the representation as St John the Baptist: some opinions; hipothesis of the representation as Bacchus: our opinion) 3. Conclusion (Leonard's Bacchus: an interpretation of Dionysus-Bacchus as neutralizer-God of the opposites. We make punctual comparisons with Jheronimus Bosch.
THE HOUSE THAT IS NOT THERE: THE HOME FEELING IN JONATHAN RABAN’S LANGUAGE IN FOREIGN LAND
2021
This work aims to analyse the novel of the journalist and novelist Jonathan Raban, Foreign Land, trying to highlight how, through the language used, the author manages to elaborate a personal, intimate and even dramatic vision of themes such as the relationship between man and the environment, the sense of uprooting and the love for the sea that are typical themes of travel literature within which this novel is enrolled. More specifically, the text, taken from a work of reading analysis and translation of the Rabanian work from English to Italian, aims to highlight the metaphorical dimension of the home feeling made particularly effective by the parallelism between the inner dimension of th…
Can we see syllables in monosyllabic words? A study with illusory conjunctions
2009
Mathey, Zagar, Doignon, and Seigneuric (2006) reported an inhibitory effect of syllabic neighbourhood in monosyllabic French words suggesting that syllable units mediate the access to lexical representations of monosyllabic stimuli. Two experiments were conducted to investigate the perception of syllable units in monosyllabic stimuli. The illusory conjunction paradigm was used to examine perceptual groupings of letters. Experiment 1 showed that potential syllables in monosyllabic French words (e.g., BI in BICHE) affected the pattern of illusory conjunctions. Experiment 2 indicated that the perceptual parsing in monosyllabic items was due to syllable information and orthographic redundancy. …
Paplašinātās lasīšanas efektivitāte angļu valodas prasmju pilnveidē 5. klasē
2021
Pēdējo gadu desmitu laikā plašā lasīšana ir guvusi atbalstu un atzinību otrās valodas un svešvalodu apguves pedagoģijā. Daudzi raksti parāda plašās lasīšanas priekšrocības angļu valodas prasmju uzlabošanā. Lai gan plašā lasīšana ir guvusi atzinību tiek praktizēta daudzās valstīs, Latvijā tā joprojām tiek maz izmantota. Šī diplomdarba mērķis ir parādīt plašās lasīšanas priekšrocības un to, cik efektīvi tā var uzlabot izglītojamo svešvalodu prasmi. Plašās lasīšanas pētījums parāda, ka tas ne tikai efektīvi attīsta izglītojamo lasītprasmi, bet arī uzlabo citas valodas prasmes. Šis diplomdarbs galvenokārt koncentrējas uz lasītprasmes un ar to saistīto valodu prasmju uzlabošanu, piemēram, vārdu …
Pašvadītas mācīšanās stratēģijas lasītprasmes uzlabošanai angļu valodas stundās 4.klasē
2021
Maģistra darbā tiek pētīta ekstensīvās lasīšanas ietekme uz skolēnu spēju veikt lasīšanas uzdevumus. Teorētiskajā daļā tiek izklāstīts lasīšanas jēdziens; darbā apskatītas pamatskolas skolēnu problēmas lasīšanā, kā arī ekstensīvās lasīšanas loma, tekstu izlases kritēriji un efektīvas lasīšanas stratēģijas. Šī darba mērķis ir palīdzēt vidējā zināšanu līmeņa skolēniem apgūt lasīšanas stratēģijas. Darba praktiskajā daļā sniegts pārskats par pilotpētījumu: eksperimentālā grupa lasīja ekstensīvi un pielietoja praksē lasīšanas stratēģijas. Darba izpētes metode ir eksperiments; datu vākšanas instrumenti ir dalībnieku novērošana, vajadzību anketu analīze, lasīšanas pirmseksperimenta tests un pēceks…
Video materiāli ar subtitriem angļu valodā lasīšanas ātruma un izpratnes paaugstināšanai 11. klasē
2020
Mūsdienās ir nepieciešama efektīva lasīšanas izpratne un ātrums, lai atrastu atbilstošu un patiesu informāciju, piemēram, laikrakstos, transporta grafikos un citos rakstveida avotos. Diplomdarba mērķis bija izpētīt, kā video materiālu ar angļu subtitriem pielietošana var palielināt lasīšanas ātrumu un izpratni 11. klasē. Pētījuma metode bija gadījuma pētījums ar 12 skolēnu izlasi. Datu vākšanas gaitā tika veikti skolēnu lasīšanas ātruma un izpratnes mērījumi, ievāktas atgriezeniskās saites anketas un veiktas daļēji strukturētas intervijas ar divām skolotājām. Pētījuma rezultātā tika atklāts, ka nedaudz paaugstinājās lasīšanas ātrums, bet pazeminājās teksta izpratne. Šajā gadījumā video mate…
