Starpinstitūciju sadarbība, veicot preventīvo darbu ar bērna ģimeni
2022
Maģistra darba “Starpinstitūciju sadarbība, veicot preventīvo darbu ar bērna ģimeni” mērķis ir izpētīt starpinstitūciju sadarbību, veicot preventīvo darbu ar bērna ģimeni Gulbenes novadā. Teorētiskajā pamatojumā tiek aplūkots preventīvā darba jēdziens, mērķa grupas raksturojums, starpinstitūciju sadarbība, sociālā mācīšanās teorija un ekoloģiskās sistēmas teorija. Tika veikta fokusgrupa ar 7 Gulbenes novada institūciju pārstāvjiem, lai noskaidrot kā Gulbenes novada institūcijas sadarbojas un organizē preventīvo sociālo darbu. Daļēji strukturētās intervijas bija ar 4 Gulbenes novada sociālā dienesta sociālajiem darbiniekiem, lai noskaidrotu, kā sociālie darbinieki veic preventīvu sociālo dar…
Testing the “physical model concept” by soil loss data measured in Sicily
2012
The best possible model to predict the erosion from an area of land has been suggested to be a physical model of the area that has similar soil type, land use, size, shape, slope and erosive inputs. Therefore, a replicated plot has to be considered the best possible, unbiased, real world model. In this paper the physical model concept was tested by using soil loss data collected on plots of different length at the experimental station of Sparacia, in Sicily (South Italy). This investigation supported the conclusions that i) a coefficient of determination between measured and predicted soil loss values of 0.77 has to be considered as the best-case prediction scenario and ii) an uncalibrated …
Passive sound exposure induces rapid perceptual learning in musicians: event-related potential evidence.
2013
Musicians show enhanced auditory processing compared to nonmusicians. However, the neural basis underlying the effects of musical training on rapid plasticity in auditory processing has not been systematically studied. Here, the rapid (one session) learning-related plastic changes in event-related potential (ERP) responses for pitch and duration deviants between passive blocks were compared between musicians and nonmusicians. Passive blocks were interleaved with an active discrimination task. In addition to musicians having faster and stronger overall source activation for deviating sounds, source analysis revealed rapid plastic changes in the left and right temporal and left frontal source…
Source localization of event-related potentials to pitch change mapped onto age-appropriate MRIs at 6 months-of-age
2010
Auditory event-related potentials (ERPs) have been used to understand how the brain processes auditory input, and to track developmental change in sensory systems. Localizing ERP generators can provide invaluable insights into how and where auditory information is processed. However, age-appropriate infant brain templates have not been available to aid such developmental mapping. In this study, auditory change detection responses of brain ERPs were examined in 6-month-old infants using discrete and distributed source localization methods mapped onto age-appropriate magnetic resonance images. Infants received a passive oddball paradigm using fast-rate non-linguistic auditory stimuli (tone do…
Brain responses to speech sounds in infants and children with and without familial risk for dyslexia
2015
Dyslexia, a specific reading disability, runs in families. Therefore, the risk for a child to become dyslexic increases multifold if reading difficulties occur in the family. One risk factor for dyslexia is a deficit in speech perception. Using EEG, speech sound discrimination was found to be more demanding than non- speech discrimination in typical readers in Study I. In Study II, in children with dyslexia in 3rd grade, enhanced brain responses were observed and found to be associated with better performance in reading accuracy, spelling accuracy and phonemic length discrimination tasks. The brain responses of the most accurate readers in the dyslexia group originated from a more posterior…
Transferencia valor-experiencia a través del patrocinio deportivo : antecedentes y consecuencias
2021
El estudio propone un modelo de patrocinio deportivo que toma como eje la transferencia entre evento y marca en términos de valor y experiencia, abundando en sus antecedentes y efectos. Encuestando en 2012 a 364 asistentes al GP de Fórmula 1 de València se concluye que no se transfiere el valor del evento a la marca, pero sí la experiencia. Asimismo, se observa que ambos términos (experiencia y valor) están significativamente relacionados. Adicionalmente, se confirma que motivación, identificación e implicación son antecedentes del eje del modelo, junto con todos los efectos propuestos. This study proposes a general model for sports sponsorship which takes as its central concept the transfe…
Involvement and image transfer in sports sponsorship
2017
Sponsorships have become one of the most important marketing tools. Data show that a majority of sporting events is sponsored and that investment in sponsorship is increasing every year. Companies are demanding more research to better unde rstand their investment efficacy. Involvement is a key element in processing sponsorship information in consumers’ minds. This variable affects consumer behavior and moderates the sponsor image transfer. The study of involvement could give guidance for the design of appropriate and functional advert ising campaigns. The research proposes segmenting and modelling sport consumer behaviour in sponsorship by their level of involvement with the event. For this…
Square of Opposition Under Coherence
2016
Various semantics for studying the square of opposition have been proposed recently. So far, only (Gilio et al., 2016) studied a probabilistic version of the square where the sentences were interpreted by (negated) defaults. We extend this work by interpreting sentences by imprecise (set-valued) probability assessments on a sequence of conditional events. We introduce the acceptability of a sentence within coherence-based probability theory. We analyze the relations of the square in terms of acceptability and show how to construct probabilistic versions of the square of opposition by forming suitable tripartitions. Finally, as an application, we present a new square involving generalized qu…

Note brevi a margine della proposta di riforma dei reati ambientali del gruppo di studio dell'associazione dei professori di diritto penale
2022
A partire dall’analisi della proposta di riforma dei reati contro l’ambiente elaborata dal Gruppo di studio dell’Associazione italiana dei Professori di Diritto Penale, il contributo riflette sui principali problemi teorici del diritto penale ambientale (tipizzazione dell’evento lesivo nelle fattispecie di inquinamento e di disastro ambientale, imputazione soggettiva dei delitti aggravati dall’evento, contrasto penale alle c.d. “ecomafie” nel settore dei rifiuti ecc.), mettendo a confronto le soluzioni suggerite nel testo con le prospettive di riforma contenute nella recente Proposta di Direttiva del Parlamento europeo e del Consiglio sulla Protezione dell’ambiente at- traverso il diritto p…
