The Effect of Moderate- Versus High-Intensity Resistance Training on Systemic Redox State and DNA Damage in Healthy Older Women
2018
This study investigated effects of a 16-week progressive resistance training program (RTP) with elastic bands at two different intensities on systemic redox state, DNA damage, and physical function in healthy older women. Methods: Participants were randomly assigned to the high-intensity group (HIGH; n = 39), moderate-intensity group (MOD; n = 31), or control group (CG; n = 23). The exercise groups performed an RTP twice a week with three to four sets of 6 (HIGH) or 15 (MOD) repetitions of six overall body exercises at a perceived exertion rate of 8-9 on the OMNI-Resistance Exercise Scale for use with elastic bands. Thiol redox state was determined by reduced glutathione (GSH), oxidized glu…
Properties of transmembrane helix TM1 of the DcuS sensor kinase of Escherichia coli, the stator for TM2 piston signaling
2021
Abstract The sensor kinase DcuS of Escherichia coli perceives extracellular fumarate by a periplasmic PASP sensor domain. Transmembrane (TM) helix TM2, present as TM2-TM2′ homo-dimer, transmits fumarate activation in a piston-slide across the membrane. The second TM helix of DcuS, TM1, is known to lack piston movement. Structural and functional properties of TM1 were analyzed. Oxidative Cys-crosslinking (CL) revealed homo-dimerization of TM1 over the complete membrane, but only the central part showed α-helical +3/+4 spacing of the CL maxima. The GALLEX bacterial two-hybrid system indicates TM1/TM1′ interaction, and the presence of a TM1-TM1′ homo-dimer is suggested. The peripheral TM1 regi…
Samhandling om tjenester til personer med utviklingshemming og samtidig psykiske lidelser/ plager: Hvilke erfaringer har deres foreldre?
2016
Masteroppgave psykisk helsearbeid - Universitetet i Agder 2016 National as well as international research shows that people with mental retardation are more prone to develop mental ailments and behavioral problems then the general population. Still, little subject material illuminates the collaboration of services provided to this group of people. The purpose of this study is to explore how the parents of people with mental retardation and simultaneous mental illnesses/ ailments perceive the collaboration of services provided to their offspring: What are their experiences on collaboration between the different service providers? How do they view collaboration between themselves/ their offsp…
Vispārīgas datu aizsardzības regulas pielietojuma apskats starptautiskā IT uzņēmumā
2019
2018. gada 25. maijā spēkā stājās Vispārīgā datu aizsardzības regula, kuras mērķis ir padarīt datu drošības regulējumu atbilstīgu mūsdienu tehnoloģijām. Regulas ieviešana attiecas uz visiem uzņēmumiem, kas nodarbojas ar datu glabāšanu un apstrādi, tostarp arī IT uzņēmumiem. Galvenā lieta, kas saista uzņēmēju uzmanību, ir sankcijas par regulas noteikumu pārkāpumiem. Lai samazinātu šo risku, uzņēmumā nepieciešams veiksmīgi implementēt regulas noteikumus, tāpēc ir jāizveido vadlīnijas, kas atvieglotu šo procesu. Aprakstošā metode tika pielietota, lai izpētītu regulas būtību, tās nosacījumus, vēsturisko tapšanu un pielietojuma nepieciešamību IT uzņēmumā. Analītiskā metode un salīdzinošā analīze…
Validācijas principa piemērošana, nosakot starptautiskam šķīrējtiesas līgumam piemērojamo likumu
2022
Lai nodrošinātu starptautiskajam šķīrējtiesas procesam labvēlīgu nacionālu vidi, ir attīstīta īpaša kolīziju norma – validācijas princips. Validācijas princips paredz: ja lietā ir potenciāli piemērojami vairāki likumi, validācijas princips uzliek tiesai vai šķīrējtiesai pienākumu piemērot likumu, kurš nodrošina šķīrējtiesas līguma spēkā esamību. Par spīti validācijas principa plašai piemērošanai starptautiskajā doktrīna un praksē, Latvijas tiesību sistēmā šāda kolīziju norma vēl netiek piemērota. Tādēļ pētījuma mērķis ir attīstīt validācijas principa kā kolīziju normas piemērošanas shēmu, ko piemērot tribunālu un tiesu praksē, tajā skaitā Latvijā. Darba uzdevumi ir (1) izpētīt validācijas p…
The Utrecht-Management of Identity Commitments Scale (U-MICS)
2021
Abstract. The current study proposed the adaptation of the Utrecht-Management of Identity Commitments Scale (U-MICS) to the religious domain as an instrument to measure both individuals’ religious identity formation processes (when a variable-centered approach is adopted) and religious identity statuses (when a person-centered approach is adopted). The scale has been tested on a sample of 727 Italian participants aged 13–65 years, by collecting evidence of score structure, convergent, and criterion-related validity. Regarding the score structure validity, we confirmed that religious identity formation consists of three processes (commitment, in-depth exploration, reconsideration of commitm…
Resilience and the Aging Process: Assessment Tools and Needs
2015
Abstract Successful resilience is a variable often related to an optimal aging process and that might have a role on education. However, literature is rather limited when dealing with assessment instruments for the elderly in the Spanish language. The objective of this work is to examine the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (Sinclair &Wallston, 2004), a four item likert scale, in the Spanish elderly. This scale was administrated to a sample of 920 elderly Spanish participants, and the data set analysed in terms of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency. The scale demonstrated good psychometric properties. Furthermore, the homogeneity indices were higher than in th…
Temperament and personality: the German version of the Adult Temperament Questionnaire (ATQ)
2006
The psychobiological orientation inherent in temperament concepts permits a close tie between temperament and the rapidly proliferating research areas of neurosciences and behavioural genetics. Based on developmental and psychobiological studies, the Adult Temperament Questionnaire (ATQ) by Rothbart measures self-regulatory processes in addition to constitutionally based individual reactivity. The purpose of this paper is to validate a German version of the short form of the ATQ with 77 items. 213 psychosomatic inpatients and outpatients and 116 control subjects took part in this study. The study included standardized measures of personality and symptoms. The German version reliably measure…
The structural validity of the Finnish version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand : a Rasch model analysis
2020
Abstract Introduction: The construct validity of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire (DASH) has previously been questioned. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the measurement properties of the Finnish version of the DASH for assessing disability in patients with hand complaints using Rasch Measurement Theory. Methods: A cohort of 193 patients with typical hand and wrist complaints were recruited at a surgery outpatient clinic. The DASH scores were analysed using the Rasch model for differential item functioning, unidimensionality, fit statistics, item residual correlation, coverage/targeting and reliability. Results: In the original DASH questionnaire, the it…
A New Academic Quality at Work Tool (AQ@workT) to Assess the Quality of Life at Work in the Italian Academic Context
2022
Refereed/Peer-reviewed The present study provides evidence for a valid and reliable tool, the Academic Quality at Work Tool (AQ@workT), to investigate the quality of life at work in academics within the Italian university sector. The AQ@workT was developed by the QoL@Work research team, namely a group of expert academics in the field of work and organizational psychology affiliated with the Italian Association of Psychologists. The tool is grounded in the job demands-resources model and its psychometric properties were assessed in three studies comprising a wide sample of lecturers, researchers, and professors: a pilot study (N = 120), a calibration study (N = 1084), and a validation study …
