Counting and rapid naming predict the fluency of arithmetic and reading skills
2016
Understanding of the factors that underlie the development of fluency in reading and arithmetic is limited. This longitudinal study examined whether verbal counting and rapid automatized naming (RAN) were predictors of arithmetic and reading fluency in a population-based sample and to what extent related early emerging cognitive abilities and socioeconomic background accounted for the predictive power of counting and RAN. In addition, in order to examine the uniqueness of counting as a numerical predictor of reading fluency, the influence of another early number skill—number concept—was controlled. Three hundred and seventy-eight Finnish children were followed from kindergarten to Grade 3 (…
“My dad got depression, or something”: How do children talk about parental mental disorder?
2012
The research about children affected by parents with mental disorders has suggested that information and an understanding of the parent's problems are important factors in the child's resilience. Therefore, increasing the child's understanding has been defined as a key element in many preventive interventions. However, there is little research about children's conceptions of parental mental disorder. The article examines the discourses (vocabularies) that children use as their resources when talking about a parent's mental disorder during a qualitative research interview. It pays special attention to the interviewer-child interaction. The data come from interviews with ten Finnish children.…
Development of pre-academic skills and motivation in kindergarten : a subgroup analysis between classroom quality profiles
2017
AbstractThe present study extends research on classroom quality profiles by examining the differences between profiles with respect to children’s development in pre-academic skills and motivation across the kindergarten year. Teacher–child interactions were observed in 49 Finnish kindergarten classrooms using the CLASS Pre-K instrument. Based on prior identification of latent profiles of classroom quality, subgroup analyses on children’s data were carried out on three profiles representing high Emotional Support and Classroom Organisation and intermediate Instructional Support (Profile 1), higher-intermediate Emotional Support and Classroom Organisation and lower-intermediate Instructional …
Izglītojoša tiešsaistes mācību platforma "Quizlet" skolēnu angļu valodas vārdu krājuma bagātināšanai skolotāja privātpraksē
2021
Mūsdienās valodas apguvi un mācīšanu ietekmē tehnoloģijas, tāpēc skolotāji izmanto dažādas metodes un rīkus, lai mācītu angļu valodas vārdu krājumu. Problēma ir tā, ka skolēni uzskata leksiku par sarežģītu uzdevumu, jo vārdi tiek rakstīti atšķirīgi. Diplomdarba autore ir izpētījusi “Quizlet” kā vārdu krājuma uzlabošanas un apguves rīku angļu valodas stundās privātajā mācību praksē. Autore ir analizējusi literatūru par kopīgajām leksikas un tiešsaistes platformu mācīšanas metodēm, kuras varētu ieviest valodas apguves procesā. Kā pētījuma metode tika izvēlēta gadījuma izpēte. Pēc interviju veikšanas diplomdarba autore saprata, ka divi studenti no privātās mācību prakses vēlas apgūt jaunu vārd…

Hsp60 in embryonic and adult submandibular salivary gland: quantitative distribution patterns in normal tissue and comparison with benign and maligna…
2019
Introduction: Heat Shock Protein 60 (Hsp60) is a member of the chaperoning system that assists protein folding inside mitochondria and plays other roles beyond these organelles. It is implicated in the carcinogenic processes in various types of cancer. In human salivary glands, Hsp60 has not yet been measured or mapped in detail and its role in gland development and functioning is virtually unknown. Consequently, its potential as biomarker for gland diseases, including malignancies cannot be assessed. The S-100 protein, a known marker for schwannomas, has been found also in myoepithelial-cell carcinomas of the salivary glands. Here, we present our initial findings on the anatomic-histologic…
A posteriori error estimates for Webster's equation in wave propagation
2015
We consider a generalised Webster’s equation for describing wave propagation in curved tubular structures such as variable diameter acoustic wave guides. Webster’s equation in generalised form has been rigorously derived in a previous article starting from the wave equation, and it approximates cross-sectional averages of the propagating wave. Here, the approximation error is estimated by an a posteriori technique. peerReviewed
A web search methodology for health consumers
2014
Nowadays, many people use the World Wide Web to seek medical and health information but different users, such as providers (e.g., physicians) and consumers (e.g., patients), have different needs and bring different levels of reading ability and prior knowledge. Generic and specific search engines and specialized health sites either do not exploit the whole web or overload users with information. This creates difficulties mainly to consumers who often do not exactly know how to find the desired information. Thus, an information retrieval system for the web that 'drives' the user in finding the relevant information would be very beneficial. This paper describes a web search methodology for he…
Discovery of a new accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar in the globular cluster NGC 2808
2016
We report on the discovery of coherent pulsations at a period of 2.9 ms from the X-ray transient MAXI J0911-655 in the globular cluster NGC 2808. We observed X-ray pulsations at a frequency of $\sim339.97$ Hz in three different observations of the source performed with XMM-Newton and NuSTAR during the source outburst. This newly discovered accreting millisecond pulsar is part of an ultra-compact binary system characterised by an orbital period of $44.3$ minutes and a projected semi-major axis of $\sim17.6$ lt-ms. Based on the mass function we estimate a minimum companion mass of 0.024 M$_{\odot}$, which assumes a neutron star mass of 1.4 M$_{\odot}$ and a maximum inclination angle of $75^{\…
