Information systems and the computer audit applied to a regional Audit institution: la Sindicatura de Comptes de la Comunidad Valenciana (Spain)
2020
Digitization is a global phenomenon that affects all human activities. Public administrations have also incorporated new information and communication technologies into their structures and the public sector. Computer auditing is a tool that allows auditing public administrations and improving accountability. This article examines the main advantages and risks of digitization and offers a case study of a regional audit institution in Spain that implemented computer auditing.
Change detection to tone pairs during the first year of life : Predictive longitudinal relationships for EEG-based source and time-frequency measures
2019
Brain responses related to auditory processing show large changes throughout infancy and childhood with some evidence that the two hemispheres might mature at different rates. Differing rates of hemispheric maturation could be linked to the proposed functional specialization of the hemispheres in which the left auditory cortex engages in analysis of precise timing information whereas the right auditory cortex focuses on analysis of sound frequency. Here the auditory change detection process for rapidly presented tone-pairs was examined in a longitudinal sample of infants at the age of 6 and 12 months using EEG. The ERP response related to change detection of a frequency contrast, its estima…
Distribution and projections of nitric oxide synthase neurons in the rodent superior olivary complex.
2000
The superior olivary complex (SOC), a group of interrelated brainstem nuclei, sends efferents to a variety of neuronal structures including the cochlea and the inferior colliculus. The present review describes data obtained from rodents providing evidence that the gaseous, short-living neuroactive substance nitric oxide (NO) is produced in the SOC. The NO-synthesizing enzyme neuronal NO-synthase (nNOS) has been localized by means of several methods including histochemistry and immunohistochemistry. Perikarya containing nNOS were found in several nuclei of the SOC. Their largest numbers and percentages of total cells were observed in the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body. Stained terminal…
Loudness Perceptions Influence Feelings of Interpersonal Closeness and Protect Against Detrimental Psychological Effects of Social Exclusion
2022
We propose that perceptions of auditory loudness and interpersonal closeness are bidirectionally related. Across 12 experiments (total N = 2,219; 10 preregistered; with Singaporean, British, U.S. American, and Australian participants), we demonstrated that louder audio made people feel physically (Study 1a) and socially (Study 1b) closer to others, presumably because loudness activates interpersonal closeness-related concepts implicitly (Studies 1c and 1d). This loudness–interpersonal closeness effect was observed across diverse samples (Studies 2a, 3a, and S1), for longer listening intervals (Study 2b), and in natural settings (Studies 3a and 3b). Conversely, individuals made to feel socia…
Latvijā veidoto dabas un ceļojumu televīzijas raidījumu atbilstība auditorijas vēlmēm un vajadzībām
2017
Bakalaura darba “Latvijā veidoto dabas un ceļojumu televīzijas raidījumu atbilstība auditorijas vēlmēm un vajadzībām” mērķis ir uzzināt, vai tie raidījumi, kuri ir veidoti Latvijā un kurus var vērot televīzijā, atbilst auditorijas vēlmēm un vajadzībām. Darba galvenie uzdevumi ir izzināt teorētisko bāzi par televīziju, jaunajiem medijiem, auditoriju un tās izpēti, lietojuma un apmierinājuma teoriju. Metodoloģisko daļu sastāda sekundāro datu analīze un dziļās intervijas. Bakalaura darba rezultātos secināts, ka Latvijā veidotie dabas un ceļojumu raidījumi apmierina to auditorijas daļu, kura tos skatās televīzijā, bet daļēji apmierina vai neapmierina tos, kuri padziļinātāk interesējas par dabu …
Réflexions sur l’investissement dans la réputation par les auditeurs et les analystes financiers;Discussions about investment in reputation on stock …
2010
(VF)Cet article s’intéresse à l’investissement dans un actif intangible spécifique : la réputation. Son analyse pour les opérateurs sur les marchés financiers est particulièrement intéressante car elle met en exergue les arbitrages possibles entre des profits à court terme issus d’un avantage informationnel et les gains à long terme générés par la construction d’une bonne réputation. Nous focalisons notre attention sur deux acteurs informationnels majeurs du marché des actions : les auditeurs et les analystes financiers. En théorie, ces acteurs sont incités à développer une bonne réputation, parce qu’ils sont en relation continue avec les investisseurs qui demandent des informations fiables…
TV kanālu pieejamība, skatīšanās paradumi un auditorijas vajadzības Latgales pierobežā
2016
Bakalaura darba tēma ir “TV kanālu pieejamība, skatīšanās paradumi un auditorijas vajadzības Latgales pierobežā”. Problēma, kas ir apskatīta darbā - Latvijas televīzijas kanālu mazā pieejamība vai intereses trūkums par tiem Latgales pierobežā. Darbā ir izvirzīti 4 mērķi, kā rezultātā, noskaidrots, kādus TV kanālus izmanto Latvijas iedzīvotāji austrumu pierobežā, un kāds ir to viedoklis par tiem. Darbā izmantoti televīzijas, auditorijas un informatīvās telpas konceptu skaidrojumi. Pielietotā metodoloģija sastāv no: sekundāro datu analīzes, daļēji strukturētās intervijas ar pierobežas TV auditorijas pārstāvjiem un ar Kultūras ministrijas Mediju politikas nozares ekspertu. Darba rezultāts – La…
Around the world in four senses : a teaching material package for a high school culture course
2012
Varmasti jokainen opettaja tiedostaa sen, että luokassa on monenlaisia oppilaita ja yhtä suuri määrä erilaisia tapoja ottaa vastaan, käsitellä ja lopulta sisäistää tietoa. Oppimistyylit, siis yksilöiden tavat ottaa vastaan ja käsitellä tietoa, ovat olennainen osa oppimista ja teoreettisia tutkimuksia oppimistyyleistä löytyy paljon. Suuresta tietotulvasta huolimatta oppimistyylit eivät ole löytäneet tietään esimerkiksi kielten opetusmateriaaleihin Suomessa. Lähinnä lukiokäyttöön suunnattu materiaalipakettimme käyttää aisteihin perustuvia oppimistyylejä hyväkseen kulttuurinopetuksessa – kulttuurintuntemus kun on lukion opetussuunnitelman mukaan olennainen osa kielten opetusta. Kulttuuri vaiku…
Automatic auditory and somatosensory brain responses in relation to cognitive abilities and physical fitness in older adults
2017
AbstractIn normal ageing, structural and functional changes in the brain lead to an altered processing of sensory stimuli and to changes in cognitive functions. The link between changes in sensory processing and cognition is not well understood, but physical fitness is suggested to be beneficial for both. We recorded event-related potentials to somatosensory and auditory stimuli in a passive change detection paradigm from 81 older and 38 young women and investigated their associations with cognitive performance. In older adults also associations to physical fitness were studied. The somatosensory mismatch response was attenuated in older adults and it associated with executive functions. So…
