Brief emotional eating scale : A multinational study of factor structure, validity, and invariance
2023
Emotional eating or the tendency to eat in response to emotional states can be assessed using self-report measures. The Emotional Eating Scale-II is a commonly used and reliable instrument that measures the desire to eat in response to a range of unpleasant and pleasant emotions. The current study aimed to corroborate the validity of the EES-II and expand its utility by investigating its dimensionality and testing its measurement invariance in samples from English-speaking and non-English-speaking countries. Convergent and predictive validity in respect of food craving, eating, and health indicators were also examined. This cross-national study included a total of 2485 adult participants re…
Päiväkoti-ikäisten lasten fyysisen aktiivisuuden mittaaminen Suomessa OSRAC-P mittarilla
2011
TIIVISTELMÄ Seppälä, A. 2011. Päiväkoti-ikäisten lasten fyysisen aktiivisuuden mittaaminen Suomessa OSRAC-P mittarilla. Jyväskylän yliopisto. Liikuntapedagogiikan pro gradu – tutkielma 84 s. 2 liites. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, soveltuuko kansainvälinen lasten fyysisen aktiivisuuden mittaamiseen tarkoitettu OSRAC-P (Observational System for Recording Physical Activity in Children-Preschool version) mittari päiväkoti-ikäisten lasten fyysisen aktiivisuuden mittaamiseen Suomessa. Tutkimuksella pyrittiin vastaamaan myös kysymyksiin, mitä OSRAC-P mittarilla mitatut tulokset kertovat päiväkoti-ikäisten lasten fyysisestä aktiivisuudesta, eroaako fyysisen aktiivisuuden intensiteetti t…
Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel
1799
Ms. 930a, Nr. 8, Bl. 22r-23v Böttiger, Karl August. Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel, Weimar, d[en] 13. November 1797 Autora rokraksts / Autograph, vācu, angļu un latīņu val. / Deutsch, Englisch und Latein [4] lpp. / S. Attēlu numuri / Bildnummern: 930a-008-1 – 930a-008-4 Der Verfasser nennt in diesem inhaltsreichen Brief zahlreiche Namen und hält nicht nur die Verbindung mit Merkel, die aus dessen erstem Aufenthalt in Weimar resultierte, aufrecht, sondern gibt ihm weitere Hinweise und Empfehlung für seinen weiteren Aufenthalt in Dänemark. So rät er zur Übersetzung dreier Romane aus dem Englischen, darunter Jane Wests „A gossip's story“ (London 1796). Ferner bittet der Verfasser Merkel um Gefälli…

I codici in scrittura latina di Alessandro Farnese (1520-1589) a Caprarola e al Palazzo della Cancelleria nel 1589
2016
This article analyses the contents of the manuscripts in Latin script found at the Villa Farnese of Caprarola and the Palazzo della Cancelleria of Rome at the death of Cardinal Alessandro Farnese (1520-1589). They were inventoried by Claudio Tobalducci, librarian to the Cardinal; the inventories were edited by Francois Fossier. Although the manuscript collections seem neither organic nor systematically constituted by the Cardinal (the volumes were mainly borrowed from the great Farnese library in the Palazzo Farnese in Rome), the manuscripts were used by the Cardinal in the last years of his life. They shed light on at least some of the personal interests of this important ecclesiastical, p…
Development and validation of the Brief Parental Burnout Scale (BPBS).
2021
Since parental burnout can have detrimental consequences for parents, couples, and children, easy-to-use, reliable, and valid practical tools for the early detection of parental burnout are required. We developed and validated a brief scale to identify burned-out parents and parents at burnout risk. In Study 1, we developed the 5-item Brief Parental Burnout scale (BPBs) based on the gold standard measure of parental burnout, the Parental Burnout Assessment (PBA). We applied Item Response Theory Graded Response Model (GRM) analyses on the data of 1,725 Finnish parents. Compared against the PBA total score, the five selected items showed both high sensitivity and specificity in screening pare…
Improved calculations of β decay backgrounds to new physics in liquid xenon detectors
2020
We present high-precision theoretical predictions for the electron energy spectra for the ground-state to ground-state β decays of 214Pb, 212Pb, and 85Kr most relevant to the background of liquid xenon dark matter detectors. The effects of nuclear structure on the spectral shapes are taken into account using large-scale shell-model calculations. Final spectra also include atomic screening and exchange effects. The impact of nuclear structure effects on the 214Pb and 212Pb spectra below ≈100 keV, pertinent for several searches for new physics, are found to be comparatively larger than those from the atomic effects alone. We find that the full calculation for 214Pb (212Pb) predicts 15.0%–23.2…
Higgs-like spectator field as the origin of structure
2021
We show that the observed primordial perturbations can be entirely sourced by a light spectator scalar field with a quartic potential, akin to the Higgs boson, provided that the field is sufficiently displaced from vacuum during inflation. The framework relies on the indirect modulation of reheating, which is implemented without any direct coupling between the spectator field and the inflaton and does not require non-renormalisable interactions. The scenario gives rise to local non-Gaussianity with $f_{\rm NL}\simeq 5$ as the typical signal. As an example model where the indirect modulation mechanism is realised for the Higgs boson, we study the Standard Model extended with right-handed neu…
Spectral distribution for the decay τ→ντKπ
2006
Abstract With the newly available data sets on hadronic τ decays from the B -factories BaBar and BELLE, and future data from BESIII, precise information on the decay distributions will soon become available. This calls for an improvement of the decay spectra also on the theoretical side. In this work, the distribution function for the decay τ → ν τ K π will be presented with the relevant Kπ vector and scalar form factors being calculated in the framework of the resonance chiral theory, also taking into account additional constraints from dispersion relations and short-distances. As a by-product the slope and curvature of the vector form factor F + K π ( s ) are determined to be λ + ′ = 25.6…
