Jalapeno or jalapeño: Do diacritics in consonant letters modulate visual similarity effects during word recognition?
2020
AbstractPrior research has shown that word identification times to DENTIST are faster when briefly preceded by a visually similar prime (dentjst; i↔j) than when preceded by a visually dissimilar prime (dentgst). However, these effects of visual similarity do not occur in the Arabic alphabet when the critical letter differs in the diacritical signs: for the target the visually similar one-letter replaced prime (compare and is no more effective than the visually dissimilar one-letter replaced prime Here we examined whether this dissociative pattern is due to the special role of diacritics during word processing. We conducted a masked priming lexical decision experiment in Spanish using target…
Weakening Forensic Science in Spain: From Expert Evidence to Documentary Evidence*
2012
An amendment in 2002 to the Spanish Code of Criminal Procedure converted into documentary evidence the expert reports prepared by official laboratories aimed at determining the nature, weight, and purity of seized drugs. In most cases, experts are spared from appearance before the courts. This is likely to be extended to other forensic fields. After an overview of criminalistic identification in current forensic science, the objectivity and reliability concepts used by jurists and scientists are considered by comparing the paradigm of individualization with that of likelihood. Subsequently, a detailed critical study is made on the above-mentioned Spanish legal reform, and a comparison is ma…
Aportación documental al retablo Mayor de la Iglesia de la Natividad de La Font de la Figuera de Joan de Joanes
2008
Se da a conocer un documento inédito para la historiografía joanesca, el contrato del retablo Mayor de la Iglesia de la Natividad de la Font de la Figuera, lo cual nos permite establecer una correcta atribución a Joan de Joanes, la fecha de realización, sus comitentes así como la composición de esta obra en su origen, entrando a formar parte del escaso legado documental de este período del arte valenciano.

Designing and evaluating collaboration in a virtual game environment for vocational learning
2008
Especially in vocational education, attention should be paid not only to the use of new technological solutions but also to collaborative learning and cooperative working methods in order to develop students' skills for their future jobs. This study involves a design experiment including the design process of a new game environment, description of the script developed for this game, as well as the empirical study with multiple data collection methods, data analysis, results and conclusions for further work. The aim of the study was twofold. Firstly, we aimed to develop a game environment to simulate the work context of a vocational design process, and secondly, to investigate how effective …
Implementing Digital Government in the Finnish Parliament
2005
The Finnish Parliament has been active in utilizing information and communication technologies in the parliamentary work as well as in communicating with citizens and other organizations. As common in public sectors, work, knowledge management, and communication in the environment is document-centric. A strategic issue in implementing digital government has been SGML/XML standardization. The Finnish Parliament has been a pioneer in the adoption of SGML/XML technologies. The chapter reports experiences from the standardization efforts. The implications of the standardization will be examined from the viewpoints of documents, information technology, work with documents, the Finnish Parliament…
Covid-19 Pandemic: What Changes for Dentists and Oral Medicine Experts? A Narrative Review and Novel Approaches to Infection Containment
2020
The authors performed a narrative review on Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome- CoronaVirus-2 ( SARS-CoV-2) and all infectious agents with the primary endpoints to illustrate the most accepted models of safety protocols in dentistry and oral medicine, and to propose an easy view of the problem and a comparison (pre- vs post-COVID19) for the most common dental procedures. The outcome is forecast to help dentists to individuate for a given procedure the differences in terms of safety protocols to avoid infectious contagion (by SARS-CoV-2 and others dangerous agents). An investigation was performed on the online databases Pubmed and Scopus using a combination of free words and Medical Subject H…
Search for flavor changing neutral currents in decays of top quarks
2011
We present a search for flavor changing neutral currents in decays of top quarks. The analysis is based on a search for ttbar -> l'null + jets (l, l' = e, mu) final states using 4.1 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity of ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV. We extract limits on the branching ratio B(t -> Zq) (q = u, c quarks), assuming anomalous tuZ or tcZ couplings. We do not observe any sign of such anomalous coupling and set a limit of B < 3.2% at 95% C.L.
Crowding y Overtourism en la literatura de turismo y cruceros
2020
[EN] The purpose of this article is to make a small analysis of the situation of Crowding and Overtourism literature in the tourism sector. In addition, the paper makes a special review of this literature with emphasis on cruise ship literature. Using the Web of Science as a basis, the study makes a brief bibliometric analysis of this literature. The purpose is to know the state of the art and main trends in this literature. In addition, the work aims to lay the foundations for a subsequent in-depth analysis of this literature. The work has implications for researchers, as it analyses gaps in the literature and new future trends. In addition, the work can help professionals to observe new p…
Information systems for preservation of cultural heritage
2000
The preservation of the cultural heritage has become at present a subject of fundamental importance in Italy, above all because of the numerous unhappy events, due to not only natural reasons, happened in these last years. Besides this problem is particularly urgent in Sicily, because of the existence of a considerable cultural heritage and in absence of a complete and systematic inventory. To tackle such a complex subject, the use of informatics is required, since the traditional methods, based especially on paper documentation, are absolutely inadequate. Particularly, this work deals with the cultural heritage inventory selected according to: - historical urban centres; - archaeological s…
