Improved Maximum Strength, Vertical Jump and Sprint Performance after 8 Weeks of Jump Squat Training with Individualized Loads
2016
The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of 8 weeks of jump squat training on isometric half squat maximal force production (Fmax) and rate of force development over 100ms (RFD100), countermovement jump (CMJ) and squat jump (SJ) height, and 50 m sprint time in moderately trained men. Sixty eight subjects (~21 years, ~180 cm, ~75 kg) were divided into experimental (EXP; n = 36) and control (CON, n = 32) groups. Tests were completed pre-, mid- and post-training. EXP performed jump squat training 3 times per week using loads that allowed all repetitions to be performed with ≥90% of maximum average power output (13 sessions with 4 sets of 8 repetitions and 13 sessions with 8 sets o…

Time Deixis in Engineering Discourse
2021
Nowadays, it has become commonly accepted that the meaning of linguistic elements is interconnected with the context of their use. Deixis is one of the classical pragmatic phenomena that illustrates that context-dependence is inherent in language as meaning of deictic expressions cannot be constructed without the identification of the speech event where these expressions occurred. The present article discusses cases of time deixis in the context of engineering discourse. The goal of the research is to demonstrate how the deictic expression use in different genres of professional discourse impacts meaning construction. The study deals with the data obtained from scientific articles, encyclop…
Il tempo perduto di neanderthal: preistoria e musei
2010
One of the most interesting problems of the "representations" of the prehistory in museums is constituted by the difficulty to make the images of the physical people. In some cases, the presence of contemporary artists has been useful to resolve the problem, in others the solution is submitted to the so-called paleo-artists, in others still it is the whole presentation that assumes, in its complex, evocative characters. This article examines some interesting examples, on the thread conductor of one of the great mysteries of the most distant prehistory: the anxious image of Neanderthal man.
Repeat Assessed Values Model for Housing Price Index
2017
Abstract This study proposes an innovative methodology, named Repeat Appraised Price Model (RAV), useful for determining the price index numbers for real estate markets and the corresponding index numbers of hedonic prices of main real estate characteristics in the case of a lack of data. The methodological approach proposed in this paper aims to appraise the time series of price index numbers. It integrates the principles of the method of repeat sales with the peculiarities of the Hedonic Price Method, overcoming the problem of an almost total absence of repeat sales for the same property in a given time range; on the other hand, the technique aims to overcome the limitation of the repeat …

A time estimation task as a possible measure of emotions: difference depending on the nature of the stimulus used
2015
Objective: Time perception is fundamental for human experience. A topic which has attracted the attention of researchers for long time is how the stimulus sensory modality (e.g., images vs. sounds) affects time judgments. However, so far, no study has directly compared the effect of two sensory modalities using emotional stimuli on time judgments. Methods: In the present two studies, healthy participants were asked to estimate the duration of a pure sound preceded by the presentation of odors vs. emotional videos as priming stimuli (implicit emotion-eliciting task). During the task, skin conductance (SC) was measured as an index of arousal. Results: Olfactory stimuli resulted in an increase…
The Clock'N Test as a Possible Measure of Emotions: Normative Data Collected on a Non-clinical Population.
2016
International audience; Objective: At present emotional experience and implicit emotion regulation (IER) abilities are mainly assessed though self -reports, which are subjected to several biases. The aim of the present studies was to validate the Clock'N test, a recently developed time estimation task employing emotional priming to assess implicitly emotional reactivity and IER. Methods: In Study 1, the Clock' N test was administered to 150 healthy participants with different age, laterality and gender, in order to ascertain whether these factors affected the test results. In phase 1 participant were asked to judge the duration of seven sounds. In phase 2, before judging the duration of the…
Las prisiones de la Cárcel de amor: espacios de encierros alegórico, real y literario del tormento amoroso y del honor cortesano
2022
El estudio trata de ver cómo la expresión de la intimidad de los personajes principales de la obra de Diego de San Pedro se cruza con el motivo de la “cárcel”, bajo sus distintas modalidades (incluso la “cárcel” de la incomunicación, a través del sistema discursivo que encierra cada protagonista en apartados distintos). Además de la “cárcel de amor” de Leriano y de la “cárcel de honor” de Laureola, se analiza la “cárcel de escritura” del Autor, tercero y narrador encerrado en su función de adyuvante y de transcriptor, incapaz de actuar para un desenlace feliz de la intriga amorosa, si no es dejando testimonio escrito en discursos y epístolas separadas por blancos tipográficos. De forma más …
