Strategies and mechanisms in musical affect self-regulation: A new model
2017
This study aimed at investigating the associations between regulation strategies and musical mechanisms involved in musical affect self-regulation. A sample of 571 participants was collected and the data regarding the reported strategies and mechanisms were analysed using correspondence analysis (CA). Three bipolar dimensions – cognition, feelings, and body – were retained for interpretation, thus revealing six contrasting strategic uses of music: cognitive work, entertainment, affective work, distraction, revival, and focus on situation. Clear associations between strategies and mechanisms emerged from the CA, connecting cognitive, feelings-focused, and situational processing with individ…
An Examination of the Relationship Between Coaches’ Transformational Leadership and Athletes’ Personal and Group Characteristics in Elite Youth Soccer
2021
There is a growing body of the literature highlighting the positive impact of transformational leadership behaviours across contexts, including sport. However, there is a lack of knowledge of this relationship within elite sport settings. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between elite youth athletes’ perceptions of coaches’ transformational coaching-behaviours and variables that have been linked to transformational leadership in other settings (i.e., group cohesion, motivational climate, self-regulation of learning and athlete satisfaction). Norwegian elite youth soccer players (n= 753) selected into the national talent development program completed que…

Infrastructural and Human Factors Affecting Safety Outcomes of Cyclists
2018
The increasing number of registered road crashes involving cyclists during the last decade, and the high proportion of road crashes resulting in severe injuries and fatalities among cyclists constitutes a global issue for community health, urban development, and sustainability. Nowadays, the incidence of many risk factors for road crashes of cyclists remains largely unexplained. Given the importance of this issue, the present study has been conducted with the aim of determining relationships between infrastructural, human factors and safety outcomes of cyclists. Objectives: This study aimed, first, to examine the relationship between key infrastructural and human factors present in cycling,…
Cognitive Linguistics as the Underlying Framework for Semantic Annotation
2012
In recent years many attempts have been made to design suitable sets of rules aimed at extracting the semantic meaning from plain text, and to achieve annotation, but very few approaches make extensive use of grammars. Current systems are mainly focused on extracting the semantic role of the entities described in the text. This approach has limitations: in such applications the semantic role is conceived merely as the meaning of the involved entities without considering their context. As an example, current semantic annotators often specify a date entity without any annotation regarding the kind of the date itself i.e. a birth date, a book publication date, and so on. Moreover, these system…

Hertagramma: somu grupas H.I.M. lingvistiskā un semiotiskā analīze
2016
Semiotikas un lingvistikas nozarē ir izstrādātas dažādas teorijas mūzikas analīzei, īpaši neaplūkojot papildu mūzikas elementu devumu mūzikas nozīmē. Metāla mūzikā šos elementus izmanto, lai grupas sevišķā mūzikas stila pamatā radītu ideju un nodotu īpašus vēstījumus. Šis pētījums nosaka un analizē grupas H.I.M. papildu mūzikas elementus. Rezultāti uzskatāmi parāda šo elementu nozīmi grupas mūzikas izpratnes procesā un to devumu grupas unikālā jēdziena 'mīlas metāls' attīstībā. Grupu papildu mūzikas elementi jāņem vērā, pētot metāla mūzikas nozīmi un nosakot robežas starp mūzikas stiliem. Šie elementi ir izrādījušies ļoti nozīmīgi mūzikas idejas definēšanā, un tie ir diskursa vienība, ar ku…
Towards Equivalence Links between Senses in PlWordNet and Princeton WordNet
2017
AbstractThe paper focuses on the issue of creating equivalence links in the domain of bilingual computational lexicography. The existing interlingual links between plWordNet and Princeton WordNet synsets (sets of synonymous lexical units – lemma and sense pairs) are re-analysed from the perspective of equivalence types as defined in traditional lexicography and translation. Special attention is paid to cognitive and translational equivalents. A proposal of mapping lexical units is presented. Three types of links are defined: super-strong equivalence, strong equivalence and weak implied equivalence. The strong equivalences have a common set of formal, semantic and usage features, with some o…
Culture as an influence on sexting attitudes and behaviors: A differential analysis comparing adolescents from Spain and Colombia
2020
Abstract This study analyses the prevalence of sexting and the reasons and attitudes associated with its practice in adolescents with different cultural backgrounds (Colombia and Spain). The sample is made up of 489 Spaniards and 510 Colombians aged between 13 and 18 years. The results show that sexting is strongly influenced by gender and the country, in favor of men and Colombians respectively. The interaction between gender and country establishes that in Spain women and men practice sexting equally, while in Colombia men practice much more sexting than women. Although the practice of sexting increases progressively with age, the levels are higher among Colombian adolescents, especially …
Shared Space - ein Weg zur FuBganger-Stadt
2022
Shared Space - A Way to the Pedestrian City The negative effects of car traffic in cities continue to grow, despite the goals that the sustainable mobility paradigm put forward almost three decades ago. Measures to reduce them mainly focus on improving road safety by reducing vehicle speed and reducing traffic (traffic calming). However, the overriding goal of calming traffic is to create the desired communication behavior of res- idents and to create such spaces in the city where the needs of pedestrians and cyclists are a priority. The Shared Space project is an unusual, completely inno- vative and increasingly popular solution that allows you to calm traffic. It means a space shared betw…
