Beatrice d’Aragona (1458-1508), una napoletana alla corte d’Ungheria
2022
Personaggio marginale nelle cronache rinascimentali ne, Beatrice d’Aragona merita forse qualche considerazione maggiore, considerato il suo ruolo nel panorama monarchico europeo tra il XV e il XVI secolo. Scopo di questo articolo non è tracciare una biografia di Beatrice d’Aragona ma attirare l’attenzione sul suo profilo di donna di potere tra due regni e valorizzarne l’agire in ambito politico internazionale, ponendo l’attenzione anche sull’educazione ricevuta e l’autorevolezza derivante sua famiglia di origine. Personaje marginal en las crónicas renacentistas napolitanas, Beatriz de Aragón quizá merezca una mayor consideración, dado su papel en la escena monárquica europea entre los siglo…
Behavioral Inhibition Underlies the Link Between Interoceptive Sensitivity and Anxiety-Related Temperamental Traits
2017
Interoceptive sensitivity is a biologically determined, constitutional trait of an individual. High interoceptive sensitivity has been often associated with proneness to anxiety. This association has been explained by elevated autonomic responsiveness in anxious individuals. However, in a heartbeat discrimination task (discrimination of heartbeats’ simultaneity to an external stimulus) low cardiac responsiveness has accompanied enhanced performance. The relation between these factors seems task dependent, and cannot comprehensively explain the link between interoceptive sensitivity and anxiety. We explored for additional explanatory factors for this link. More specifically, we studied which…
Cardiac cycle and respiration phase affect responses to the conditioned stimulus in young adults trained in trace eyeblink conditioning
2022
Rhythms of breathing and heartbeat are linked to each other as well as to rhythms of the brain. Our recent studies suggest that presenting the conditioned stimulus during expiration or during the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle facilitates neural processing of that stimulus and improves learning an eyeblink classical conditioning task. To date, it has not been examined whether utilizing information from both respiration and cardiac cycle phases simultaneously allows even more efficient modulation of learning. Here we studied whether the timing of the conditioned stimulus to different cardiorespiratory rhythm phase combinations affects learning trace eyeblink conditioning in healthy you…
CA3–CA1 long‐term potentiation occurs regardless of respiration and cardiac cycle phases in urethane‐anesthetized rats
2023
Breathing and heartbeat synchronize to each other and to brain function and affect cognition in humans. However, it is not clear how cardiorespiratory rhythms modulate such basic processes as synaptic plasticity thought to underlie learning. Thus, we studied if respiration and cardiac cycle phases at burst stimulation onset affect hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) in the CA3–CA1 synapse in urethane-anesthetized adult male Sprague–Dawley rats. In a between-subjects design, we timed burst stimulation of the ventral hippocampal commissure (vHC) to systole or diastole either during expiration or inspiration and recorded responses throughout the hippocampus with a linear probe. As classic…
Motown, Disco, and Drumming : An Exploration of the Relationship Between Beat Salience, Melodic Structure, and Perceived Tempo
2019
In a study of tempo perception, London, Burger, Thompson, and Toiviainen (2016) presented participants with digitally ‘‘tempo-shifted’’ R&B songs (i.e., sped up or slowed down without otherwise altering their pitch or timbre). They found that while participants’ relative tempo judgments of original versus altered versions were correct, they no longer corresponded to the beat rate of each stimulus. Here we report on three experiments that further probe the relation(s) between beat rate, tempo-shifting, beat salience, melodic structure, and perceived tempo. Experiment 1 is a replication of London et al. (2016) using the original stimuli. Experiment 2 replaces the Motown stimuli with disco mus…
"Es war eine unendliche Leere in mir" : eine kritische Diskursanalyse zu den Identitätskonstruktionen der mutmaßlichen Rechtsterroristin Beate Zschäp…
2017
Vuonna 2011 saksalainen yhteiskunta järkyttyi vuosia kestäneen murhasarjan tultua ilmi. Uusnatsistisen terroristiryhmä NSU:n (Nationalsozialistischer Untergrund) oletettu kolmas jäsen Beate Zschäpe antoi ensimmäisen lausuntonsa vasta vuonna 2015. Vuonna 2013 alkaneessa oikeudenkäynnissä on syksyllä 2017 siirrytty loppupuheenvuoroihin. Tämä tutkimus käsittelee Beate Zschäpen antamassa kirjallisessa 53-sivuisessa oikeudenkäyntilausunnossa esille tulevia identiteettejä sekä sitä, millaisin kielellisin keinoin niitä konstruoidaan. Koska kyse on kielestä vallankäytön välineenä, soveltuu kriittinen diskurssintutkimus tämän tutkimuksen teoreettis-metodiseksi taustaksi. Analyysi on toteutettu yhden…
Domestic violence in Africa: a glance through the DHS survey
2022
Recent data states that 33 per cent of women in Sub-Saharan Africa are survivors of domestic violence. This work aims at assessing the association between women’s characteristics, their environment, and their history of violence in fifteen African countries. Three kinds of violence were explored: physical, emotional and sexual, each one exerted by the current partner. The data are from Demographic and Health Survey, in which a special module assessed domestic violence in female respondents. Using three independent logistic regression models, we found that witnessing violence of any kind has an effect on having a violent relationship, and while female empowerment is not protective, partners …
