Human Capital as Sustainability Factor in Regional Development - Some Observations in Cross-Border Regions of Moravian-Silesian and Opole Regions
2021
The main goal of cooperation of European border areas is to ensure the sustainable development, to reduce the negative effects of borders as administrative, legal and natural barriers, and to better use the untapped potential. That also refers to Moravian-Silesian and Opole regions. The objective of this paper is to present a research results of the human capital as a component of one of the dimensions of sustainable development concept in the case of two cross-borderly cooperating regions in Czech Republic and Poland: Moravian-Silesian and Opole. The research was based on a Eurostat data that include the time range between 2004 and 2020. The article is a continuation of the research, the r…
Human Capital as a Dimension of Sustainable Development of the Border Regions - the Example of Moravian-Silesian and Opole Regions
2016
Human capital is a component of one of the dimensions of sustainable development. Due to the undeniable link between them the aim of this paper is to show the human capital dimension of sustainable development concept in the case of two cross-borderly cooperating regions in Czech Republic and Poland: Moravian-Silesian and Opole. The research was based on a "review of official document" by analyzing scientific achievements and documents from Opole Centre for Economic Development. As a result of the study it can be concluded that the official documents regarding development in the region poorly take into consideration the sustainable development aspect as evidenced by the incomplete under the…
Analysis of the therapeutical properties of a phage against Staphylococcus aureus pig isolates, and phage isolation against Pseudomonas aeruginosa fr…
2017
Antibioottiresistenttiys on kasvava ongelma, jonka selättämiseksi tarvitaan uusia keinoja. Prekliinisten tutkimustulosten perusteella bakteereja infektoivien virusten eli faagien on havaittu olevan hyvä vaihtoehto antibiooteille. Sairaalanäytteestä löydettyä metisilliinille resistenttiä Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) -kantaa vastaan eristetty bakteriofagi karakterisoitiin sekvensoimalla ja läpäisyelektronimikroskoopilla, jotta sen mahdollista terapeuttista käyttöä voitaisiin selvittää. Faagilla havaittiin olevan keskikokoinen 43,098 bp:n pituinen genomi ja faagin morfologian perusteella se lukeutuu Siphoviridae-heimoon kuuluviin hännällisiin faageihin. Faagi puhdistettiin anioninvaihtokromato…

Using altered states of consciousness in improvisational music therapy : the potential of resonance frequency breathing
2018
Improvisational music therapy is a type of creative arts therapy in which clients are encouraged to express themselves through the symbolic and non-verbal medium of music, by creating free music improvisations together with the therapist. The present research aims at investigating whether the efficacy of this method can be further enhanced by purposefully accessing the ego-quieting properties of altered states of consciousness. This work proceeds in three main steps. First, the notions of consciousness and its alteration are examined and reformulated, resulting in a more comprehensive theoretical model. Then, existing methods for inducing altered states of consciousness are evaluated in ter…
Infrapunapussin vaikutus urheilijan palautumiseen yösykeanalyysien perusteella
2012
Johdanto. Palautuminen kovasta harjoittelusta ja erityisesti palautumisen tehostaminen on tärkeässä osassa huippu-urheilua. Infrapunasäteily on yksi uusimmista keinoista palautumisen tehostamisessa. Infrapunasäteilyn lämpövaikutukset ulottuvat syvemmälle lihaksiin verrattuna muihin lämpöterapiamuotoihin. (Beever 2009.) Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää infrapunapussin (FIR 65° Energy Blanket) käytön hyötyjä urheilijoiden palautumisen edistämisessä yösykeanalyysien perusteella. Menetelmät. Koehenkilöinä (n=8) oli yleisurheilua, pesäpalloa ja telinevoimistelua harrastavia urheilijoita (ikä 21,1 ± 2,3 vuotta, pituus 178,1 ± 6,6 cm ja paino 76,8 ± 10 kg). Harjoittelu suunniteltiin mukana …
Stealth dicing with Bessel beams and beyond
2016
In the context of laser cutting of transparent materials, we investigate glass cleaving with Bessel beams and report that a modification of the beam with 3 main lobes drastically enhances cleavability and reduces defects.
Sympathetic nervous system synchrony between participants of couple therapy
2017
Synchrony, or the moment-by-moment coordination between people in social situations, has been connected with increased liking and rapport. However, this type of synchrony is an underexplored area with regard to autonomic nervous system activity. The purpose of this research was to study physiological synchrony between participants in couple therapy by focusing on the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which reflects arousal and emotional reactions. The data comprised 12 couple therapy cases (24 clients, 10 therapists) participating in the Relational Mind in Events of Change in Multiactor Therapeutic Dialogues (2013-2016) research project. Electrodermal activity (EDA) and heart rate were reco…
Associations Between Sympathetic Nervous System Synchrony, Movement Synchrony, and Speech in Couple Therapy
2022
Background: Research on interpersonal synchrony has mostly focused on a single modality, and hence little is known about the connections between different types of social attunement. In this study, the relationship between sympathetic nervous system synchrony, movement synchrony, and the amount of speech were studied in couple therapy. Methods: Data comprised 12 couple therapy cases (24 clients and 10 therapists working in pairs as co-therapists). Synchrony in electrodermal activity, head and body movement, and the amount of speech and simultaneous speech during the sessions were analyzed in 12 sessions at the start of couple therapy (all 72 dyads) and eight sessions at the end of therapy (…
The added value of studying embodied responses in couple therapy research : A case study
2019
This article reports on the added value of embodied responses identified through sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity in couple therapy research. It focuses on moments of change and the timing of therapeutic interventions or therapeutic moves in a couple therapy session. The data for this single‐case study comprise couple therapy process videotapes recorded in a multi‐camera setting, and measurements of participants’ SNS activity. The voluntary participants were a marital couple in their late thirties and two middle‐aged male psychotherapists. The division into topic segments showed how the key issue of seeking help, which was found to comprise three separate components, was repeatedly…
