J15 Validation Of 24 H Dietary Recalls To Assess Dietary Intake For Patients With Huntington's Disease. Spanish Multicenter Study Of The European Gro…
2014
Background Weighed dietary records are considered as the gold standard in nutrition assessment, but 24 h dietary recalls (24-h) and 3 days dietary record (3-d) are usually used. The 24-h is less laborious and cheaper but is necessary to have an experienced interviewer; while the 3-d are completed by the same participant/caregiver, it is more reliable but more expensive, time consuming is high, require previous training and have more dropouts. Our aim was to compare the two procedures to assess dietary intake in HD. Objectives To validate a 24-h vs 3-d to assess dietary intake for patients with HD. Methods Spanish multicenter, longitudinal study (EHDN). A 24-h was administered (with a one-mo…
The Early Years Home Learning Environment – Associations With Parent-Child-Course Attendance and Children’s Vocabulary at Age 3
2020
Although many studies investigated the effects of the home learning environment (HLE) in the preschool years, the constructs that underlie the HLE in the years before the age of three and its effects on language development are still poorly understood. This study therefore investigated the dimensionality of the HLE at age two, its relation to the attendance of low threshold parent-child-courses, and its importance for children's vocabulary development between age 2 and 3 years against the background of differing family background characteristics. Using data from 1,013 children and their families of the Newborn Cohort of the German National Educational Panel Study, structural equation modeli…
Kontekst kulturowy a program edukacji językowo‑komunikacyjnej w L1. Głos w dyskusji
2020
The article’s theme concerns challenges encountered in the 21st century in the course of language communicative education within the scope of Polish as a native language. The author expresses conviction that socialisation process does not substitute for education, and therefore one of the paramount purposes/aims of language education within the scope of native language is to cater to the language-communicative needs of students stemming from cultural transformation taking place in the contemporary world. New tasks that a Polish language teacher needs to face are developing the so-called new communicative competency which facilitates communicative acts in media-dominated world of today, incl…
The Contributions of Language Skills and Comprehension Monitoring to Chinese Reading Comprehension: A Longitudinal Investigation
2021
This study examined how vocabulary, syntactic knowledge, and orthographic knowledge are related to comprehension monitoring and whether comprehension monitoring mediates the relations between these language skills and reading comprehension. Eighty-nine Chinese children were assessed on their vocabulary, syntactic knowledge, orthographic knowledge, and comprehension monitoring in Grade 1. Their reading comprehension skills were assessed in Grade 1 and Grade 3. Results showed that in Grade 1, comprehension monitoring mediated the relations between vocabulary and syntactic knowledge and reading comprehension. For Grade 3 reading comprehension, syntactic knowledge in Grade 1 was the only signif…
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 (…
What Conclusions does Rapid Image Classification by Eye Movements Provide for Machine Vision?
2008
Human ability to rapidly classify images of natural objects has been a matter of study for more than a decade. Recently eye movements have been exploited as a behavioural response, which has lead to alternative hypotheses of natural image processing. In this research, twelve volunteers made a movement towards a briefly displayed digital image if it was an animal, and a movement away otherwise. In both cases, the average response time was more than 400 milliseconds.
Benefits of formal voluntary work among older people. A review
2011
Background and aims: A narrative review of quantitative population-based longitudinal studies was conducted to examine the association of formal voluntary work and personal well-being among older people doing the voluntary work and those being served. Methods: To be included, the study had to be published in a peer-reviewed journal, written in English and conducted in Western countries, participants were at least 60 years of age, the study employed a longitudinal or experimental design, the methodology and outcomes were explicitly described, and voluntary work quantified as visits or hours within a certain time frame. Results: Sixteen studies out of 2897 met the inclusion criteria for the r…
Digitalisation of municipal healthcare collaboration with volunteers: a case study applying normalization process theory
2021
Abstract Background Increasing use of volunteers in healthcare requires structured collaboration between healthcare services and volunteers. The aim of this research was to explore critical issues and strategies in the implementation process of a digital solution for collaboration with and coordination of volunteers in municipal healthcare services. Methods Qualitative data collection was used to study implementation of a digital system for collaboration with volunteers in three Norwegian municipalities. Three rounds of interviews were conducted with healthcare employees from a volunteer centre and from municipality healthcare units in three municipalities: before implementation, and 6 and …
Las intromisiones en el derecho a la propia imagen en el ámbito laboral
2013
El derecho a la propia imagen en el ámbito laboral viene marcado por la especial relación de subordinación que ostenta el empleado respecto del empresario, pero ello no justifica la adopción por parte de éste de cualquier tipo de medida que pueda afectar a dicho derecho. El propósito de este estudio es analizar los casos más frecuentes de lesión del derecho a la propia imagen en el ámbito laboral, especialmente los consistentes en la utilización de sistemas de vídeo-vigilancia, la imposición al trabajador de una determinada apariencia física externa y la obligación de vestir un uniforme concreto.
Web 2.0: Is the Museum-Visitor Relationship Being Redefined?
2015
International audience; Museums' growing integration of Web 2.0 techniques is indicative of their readiness to redefine their relationship with their audience. While visitors were traditionally kept at arm's length, the use of these techniques now involves them at every stage in implementing the museum offer online. By scrutinizing the Web sites of institutions and the tools they use, the authors are able to highlight the different roles that now fall to the audience in terms of communication, mediation and artistic creation. The authors go on to analyze the ramifications of visitor involvement. While such involvement may well add to audience competencies and make museums more accessible an…
