Audiovisual speech perception in children with developmental language disorder in degraded listening conditions.
2013
Purpose The effect of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) on the perception of audiovisual speech in children with and without developmental language disorder (DLD) was investigated by varying the noise level and the sound intensity of acoustic speech. The main hypotheses were that the McGurk effect (in which incongruent visual speech alters the auditory speech percept) would be weaker for children with DLD than for controls and that it would get stronger with decreasing SNR in both groups. Method The participants were 8-year-old children with DLD and a sample of children with normal language development. In the McGurk stimuli, the consonant uttered by the voice differed from that articulated …
Event-related brain potentials to change in the frequency and temporal structure of sounds in typically developing 5-6-year-old children.
2015
The brain's ability to recognize different acoustic cues (e.g., frequency changes in rapid temporal succession) is important for speech perception and thus for successful language development. Here we report on distinct event-related potentials (ERPs) in 5-6-year-old children recorded in a passive oddball paradigm to repeated tone pair stimuli with a frequency change in the second tone in the pair, replicating earlier findings. An occasional insertion of a third tone within the tone pair generated a more merged pattern, which has not been reported previously in 5-6-year-old children. Both types of deviations elicited pre-attentive discriminative mismatch negativity (MMN) and late discrimina…
An investigation of prototypical and atypical within-category vowels and non-speech analogues on cortical auditory evoked related potentials (AERPs) …
2011
The present study examined cortical auditory evoked related potentials (AERPs) for the P1-N250 and MMN components in children 9 years of age. The first goal was to investigate whether AERPs respond differentially to vowels and complex tones, and the second goal was to explore how prototypical language formant structures might be reflected in these early auditory processing stages. Stimuli were two synthetic within-category vowels (/y/), one of which was preferred by adult German listeners ("prototypical-vowel"), and analogous complex tones. P1 strongly distinguished vowels from tones, revealing larger amplitudes for the more difficult to discriminate but phonetically richer vowel stimuli. P…

La destinazione dei beni confiscati alla luce delle recenti riforme
2010
Il saggio ripercorre l’evoluzione della complessa normativa che riguarda il procedimento di destinazione dei beni confiscati alla criminalità organizzata soffermandosi in particolare sulla recente istituzione dall’Agenzia nazionale per l’amministrazione e la destinazione dei beni sequestrati e confiscati alla criminalità organizzata, che dovrebbe rappresentare lo strumento organizzativo idoneo a superare i problemi che hanno finora caratterizzato la riconversione a finalità sociali dei beni illeciti sottratti alle mafie. Il contributo non si limita ad esaminare la specificità di questo modello procedimentale, alla luce anche degli istituti generali della l. n. 241 del 1990, ma affronta anch…

O zmianie moralności profesjonalnych działań fizyka. Nowy element inkulturacji chrześcijaństwa w cywilizację naukowo-technologiczną
 Fizycy są zobowiązani, zgodnie z ustalonymi metodami i standardami fizyki, do myślenia i działania w ramach epistemologicznych, na co głęboki wpływ miał I. Kant. Klimat epistemologiczny, w którym się znajdują, sprzeciwia się epistemologicznemu klimatowi realizmu naturalnego, a tym samym epistemologicznemu klimatowi Objawienia chrześcijańskiego, kiedy mówi ono o naszym świecie. Ten kontrast niszczy wewnętrzną harmonię świata umysłowego każdego fizyka w takim stopniu, w jakim zależy on od jego ogólnego sposobu myślenia, a także od jego pracy zawodowej. Sytu…

Presumption of Innocence and Deterrence
2018
This paper deals with the presumption of innocence and the law enforcer's incentives to exert investigative effort. Our main result is that, even if the presumption of guilt maximizes deterrence for a given effort by the law enforcer, divergent objectives between the law enforcer (who maximizes the probability of a conviction weighted by the magnitude of the sanction and the type of the citizen) and the public decision-maker (who minimizes social costs) may lead the latter to prefer the presumption of innocence. Indeed, the presumption of innocence may induce the law enforcer to increase investigative efforts thereby improving deterrence. As a consequence, if the law enforcer's effort is re…
Dzimumu stereotipi nodarbinātības jomā Baltijas valstīs
2021
Maģistra darbā “Dzimumu stereotipi nodarbinātības jomā Baltijas valstīs” tiek analizēti pirmsākumi, procesi un mehānismi ilgtermiņa stereotipu mainīšanas politikas attīstībai mūsdienu sabiedrībā. Tiek pētīts, kā var veidot attiecības starp darba devējiem un darba ņēmējiem, lai abas puses mazāk koncentrētos uz “dzimuma efektu” savā darba vietā. Tiek noteikts, cik lielā mērā pastāvošie dzimumu stereotipi nodrošina sieviešu veiksmīgu iekļaušanos darbaspēkā; kuri stereotipi galvenokārt traucē sieviešu profesionālo zināšanu un spēju attīstībai un kā Eiropas Savienības darba likumdošana atbalsta dzimumu līdztiesību darba tirgū. Darba analītiskā daļa ietver kultūras, vēstures un sociālekonomiskos …
