Relationship between family educational styles and social value of education: reflections of a study
2018
The goal of this study is to analyze the relationship between the social value that the families give to education of their sons and daughters, and the family educational styles. For this, we apply 4103 questionnaires of evaluation of Family Educational Styles (EEF) of Bisquert (2017). We used 5 context variables of the same questionnaire because of their conceptual relationship with the evaluation dimensions of Subjective Social Value of Education (VSESubjective) of Jornet, Perales and Sánchez Delgado (2011). The association was estimated by crosstab procedure, and Pearson’s chi-square coefficient. The results reveal the significant association in two of the four dimensions of VSESubjectiv…
Formation of Professional Ethos of Executive Public Officials in Latvia, Denmark and Finland
2013
Doktora darba priekšmets ir valsts pārvaldes amatpersonu profesionālā ētosa veidošanās Latvijā, Dānijā un Somijā. Valsts pārvaldes amatpersonu ētoss ir definēts kā šai profesionālai lomai specifiskas normatīvas orientācijas, kas tiek brīvprātīgi pieņemtas kā uzvedības imperatīvi. Valsts amatpersonu profesionālā ētosa veidošanās izpēte ir svarīga, jo tādā veidā var izskaidrot valsts sektora pakļautību korupcijas riskam vai imunitāti pret to. Izpētes mērķis ir bijis identificēt profesionālā ētosa veidošanās sociālos mehānismus uz trīs valstu – Latvijas, Dānijas un Somijas – piemēriem. Darbā tiek pielietota vēsturiskās socioloģijas pieeja un kvalitatīvo pētījumu metode. Pētījuma rezultātu anal…
Tensions and challenges concerning ethics on video research with young children : experiences from an international collaboration among seven countri…
2018
This article and the four videos linked to this article are a result of the earliest experiences in establishing an international research collaboration among seven countries in the Project Social and emotional experiences in transition through the early years. We draw attention to the complex issues surrounding the many processes, beliefs and attitudes about infants in research that permeated our processes of gaining ethical approval for the international study and which posed many challenges for our project. Through a process of reflective analysis, we have identified a range of ethical tensions and issues which the different countries involved in this international study faced in gaining…
Early Immersion in Minority Language Contexts: Canada and Finland
2020
This chapter discusses early immersion in a minority language in two bilingual countries, Canada and Finland. In Canada, immersion in the minority language, French, has been implemented since the mid-1960s and Finland introduced immersion in Swedish in the mid-1980s. As the core features of immersion education evolve in tandem with second language education theorizing (particularly as it relates to the interdependence and hybridity between and within languages), so too does the need to revisit the relevance of these core features across different contexts. In this vein, this chapter compares how changing socio-political realities in the two contexts have influenced program development in re…
Estudio de variación en el uso de atenuación II: Microanálisis de secuencias discursivas, actos de habla y recursos atenuantes
2020
Resumen El estudio de la atenuación pragmática ha sido priorizado en los últimos años, especialmente en las disciplinas que trabajan con el habla, como el análisis del discurso y de la conversación. Sin embargo, la variabilidad sociopragmática y geolectal en usos y recursos de atenuación, al menos para el caso del español, apenas se ha abordado. A ello se dedica el presente trabajo, que se complementa con la investigación presentada en el artículo de Cestero y Albelda (2020); así se pretende dar cuenta del estado actual de la investigación variacionista sobre la estrategia atenuadora, especialmente desarrollada en el marco del Proyecto para el estudio sociolingüístico del español de España …

National vegetation databases: the case of VegItaly.

The new “Vegetation map of Sicily (Italy)”: a synthetic overview of the distribution of European habitats on the territory.
2016
The new "Vegetation map of Sicily (Italy)", recently published (Gianguzzi, Papini & Cusimano, 2015), shows also a synthetic overview of the distribution of European habitats in the territory; the study area has been extended to small islands circum-Sicilian (archipelago of the Aeolian; Aegadian, Pelagie Ustica and Pantelleria islands), for a total area of 25,703 km2. Our work allowed to resume the knowledge status of the phytosociological studies on vegetation carried out and to identify the actual plant landscape of the region; the map was compiled in a Geographical Information Systems (GIS) environment, in order to produce a cartographic representation in 1:10,000 scale (reduced to a 1:25…
European Vegetation Archive: now EVA really starts!
2014
European Vegetation Archive (EVA) was announced as a new initiative of the European Vegetation Survey at the EVS Meeting in Vienna in 2012. The aim of EVA is to create a centralized database of European vegetation plots by storing copies of national and regional databases on a single software platform using a unified taxonomic reference database. EVA does not affect the ongoing independent developments of source data bases and it guarantees that data property rights of the original contributors are re spected. EVA Data Property and Governance Rules were approved and the EVA website (www.euroveg.org/evadatabase) was established in 2012. Since then several European vegetationplot database…
La voce allo specchio
2012
En partant de l'hypothèse de Rizzolatti et collègues (1998, 2007) d'un isomorphisme originaire entre phonétique et sémantique, l'article analyse le rapport entre les différences phonologiques et les différences sémantiques dans quatre ensembles de mots monosyllabiques italiens (monophonèmes, pronoms, verbes et adverbes) et montre que les signifiants tendent à s'opposer entre eux par le biais des traits phonologiques distinctifs comme les signifiés s'opposent par le biais de traits morphologiques et sémantiques. Par exemple, le premières personnes tendent à être relativement plus postérieures et graves, les deuxièmes, antérieures et aiguës et les troisièmes centrales et ouvertes. En outre, d…
