Prediction of adoptee psychiatric disorders by interaction of genetic risk of schizophrenia and communication deviance divided by the word count of a…
2013
TAUSTA: Vaikka geenien ja ympäristön toisistaan riippumaton vaikutus skitsofrenian etiologiaan on osoitettu, ei aiemmissa tutkimuksissa ole kiinnitetty huomiota näiden yhdysvaikutuksiin. Suomalaisessa skitsofrenian adoptiolapsitutkimuksessa geeni-ympäristö yhdysvaikutuksen on havaittu olevan yhteydessä yleisesti adoptiolasten psykiatrisiin häiriöihin. TUTKIMUSONGELMA: Ennustimme adoptiolasten seurannassa todettuja mielenterveyden häiriöitä perustuen heidän adoptiovanhempiensa yksilö-Rorschach -testissä todettuihin kommunikaatiohäiriöihin standardisoituna puheen pituudella. Vertasimme tätä menetelmään, jossa kommunikaatiohäiriöt oli standardisoitu transaktioiden (vastausten) lukumäärällä löy…
Common variants at VRK2 and TCF4 conferring risk of schizophrenia
2011
To access publisher full text version of this article. Please click on the hyperlink in Additional Links field. Common sequence variants have recently joined rare structural polymorphisms as genetic factors with strong evidence for association with schizophrenia. Here we extend our previous genome-wide association study and meta-analysis (totalling 7 946 cases and 19 036 controls) by examining an expanded set of variants using an enlarged follow-up sample (up to 10 260 cases and 23 500 controls). In addition to previously reported alleles in the major histocompatibility complex region, near neurogranin (NRGN) and in an intron of transcription factor 4 (TCF4), we find two novel variants show…
Inclusion at the time of school-work alternance: new challenges and perspectives for connection between school, formation and world of job
2019
The historical moment that we are experiencing is characterized by several technological changes as well as by demographic ones. So, the world of work is even more flexible and in continuous evolution. It follows that it’s increasingly present the need to promote an authentic knowledge that can combine theory and practice, knowledges and abilities with the aim to develop competences. So, school becomes the educative agency that has to combine formative needs of individual with competences required by the job market, with the purpose of offering equal opportunities to all its students; this is the perspective offered by Capability Approach, whose declination in a scholastic context can allow…
Latvian or English – the Language Situation in Scientific Communication in Latvia
2020
The growing dominance of English as an international language of scientific communication in the world has been widely acknowledged. However, its effect in the relevant discourse community in Latvia is still to be explored. A case study was undertaken to improve upon the current understanding of the choice of scientific publishing language in Latvia and explore historical factors underpinning the current predominance of English as the lingua franca of the scientific community. It has been concluded that with a strong focus on international publishing in indexed databases, the role of English in scientific communication in Latvia has an increasing tendency to grow. Although currently English…
Are Public Subsidies to Encourage Young Farmers Effective? Case Study of a First-Time Farm Set Up by a Young Female Farmer in the Valencian Region of…
2021
Generational renewal and the incorporation of women into the rural world are fundamental for the sustainability and modernisation of the agricultural sector. Hence the special government protection granted to the sector, which appears in both European legislation on rural issues and in the global strategy of the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Rural Development Goals involving a commitment to measures aimed at helping young farmers to set up agricultural holdings and especially at encouraging women to engage in farm management. In the case of Spain, this is nothing new, given that Law 35/2011 on the Shared Ownership of Agricultural Holdings became a veritable revolution in terms of gender i…
Student engagement, truancy, and cynicism : a longitudinal study from primary school to upper secondary education
2021
Truancy in upper secondary education is a widespread problem, which contributes significantly to school dropout risk. However, the underlying mechanisms of truancy have remained unstudied. This longitudinal study of 1853 Finnish students examined how initial levels and changes in student engagement from primary (Grade 6) to lower secondary school (Grades 7 and 9) predicted truancy in upper secondary education, and whether cynicism (losing interest in school) mediated the relationship between engagement and truancy. Growth curve models showed that high engagement levels in primary school and increases in engagement over time predicted less truancy in upper secondary education. Cynicism media…
Recalled parental rearing style, self-esteem, and psychopathological symptoms in the general population
2020
The enduring impact of perceived parental behavior on self-esteem as well as anxiety and depression in adults is still unknown. In a large random route sample (age range 18?92), 4,747 subjects were asked to complete questionnaires about recalled parental rearing, selfesteem, anxiety, and depression. Structural equation modeling was used, and the data from the mother and the father version of the FEE (a questionnaire for recalled parental rearing) were analyzed separately. A model proposing that self-esteem mediates the relationship between parental behavior and psychopathological symptoms fits the data rather well (CFI = .95, RMSEA = .05, TLI = .94). Hence, the recalled authoritative parent…

Motivational Regulations Across the Stages of Change for Exercise in the General Population of Monterrey (Mexico)
2018
Few studies have examined exercise adherence in the Mexican population using self-determination theory proposals and the stages of change model. The objectives of this study were:(a) to translate and adapt the Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-3 (BREQ-3) to Mexican Spanish and examine its internal consistency and factorial structure (six dimensions); and (b) to analyse variations in behavioral regulations using the stages of change model. This study included 530 participants between 11 and 76 years old who lived in the metropolitan area of the city of Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The Mexican version of the BREQ-3 presented an acceptable six-factor model that agrees with the …
