Speculation and Justification in Policy-Making on Neuroenhancement

2013

Neuroscientific findings allow interventions in the human brain to improve its function or modify mental states even without medical indication. This procedure, termed as neuroenhancement, is subject to a broad ethical debate. As neuroenhancement is an evolving phenomenon, the debate is necessarily future-oriented and highly dependent on information about future developments. It remains an open question to what degree uncertain forecasting or even speculation should be considered in the ethical debate and policy-making. I propose to distinguish between arguments with three different purposes: intuition-forming, self-reflecting and justifying arguments. Adequate standards are required for al…

Lutra nauczanie o usprawiedliwieniu jako imputatio i deificatio

2018

Artykuł prezentuje nauczanie Marcina Lutra na temat usprawiedliwienia w kontekście jego soteriologicznych i antropologicznych konsekwencji, które na poziomie werbalnym wyznaczają pojęcia imputatio i deificatio. Zasadniczą prezentację głównych aspektów tego nauczania poprzedza szkic historycznego tła jego sformułowania, gdzie istotną rolę odgrywał spór o odpusty i mistyczne inspiracje teologii Lutra. Wittenberski Reformator ujmował usprawiedliwienie zarówno jako przypisanie wierzącemu sprawiedliwości Chrystusa, jak i ścisłe zjednoczenie z Nim. Owa jedność, której obrazem jest małżeństwo, polega na commercium sacrum między człowiekiem a Chrystusem. Uczestnictwo wierzą­cego w sprawiedliwości C…

Students' abilities to evaluate the credibility of online texts: The role of internet‐specific epistemic justifications

2021

Previous evaluation studies have rarely used authentic online texts and investigated upper secondary school students' use of evaluation criteria and deep reasoning. The associations between internet-specific epistemic justifications for knowing and credibility evaluation of online texts are not yet fully understood among adolescents. This study investigated upper secondary school students' (N = 372) abilities to evaluate self-selected authentic online texts and the role of internet-specific epistemic justifications in students' evaluation performance when solving a health-related information problem. Students selected three texts with Google Custom Search Engine and evaluated their credibil…

Adolescents' credibility justifications when evaluating online texts.

2022

AbstractResearch has shown that students differ in their abilities to evaluate the credibility of online texts, and, in general, many perform poorly on online evaluation tasks. This study extended current knowledge by examining students’ abilities to justify the credibility of online texts from different perspectives, thus providing a more nuanced understanding of students’ credibility evaluation ability. We examined how upper secondary school students (N = 73; aged 16 to 17) evaluated author expertise, author intention, the publication venue, and the quality of evidence when reading four texts about the effects of sugar consumption in a web-based environment. Additionally, we examined how …

Real lattices modelled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and its generalizations

2006

We present the analysis of two dimerized lattices : a bi-inductance electrical network with macroscopic wave modes, an antiferromagnetic chain whith microscopic spin waves. Using the multiple scale technique of reductive perturbation we show that the original discrete equations of motion can be reduced to a Nonlinear Schrodinger equation with complex coefficients for the first system and two coupled Nonlinear Schrodinger equations for the second system. The possible solutions of these equations are discussed in relation with our numerical simulations and real experiments.

Proporzionalità, diritti, democrazia

2014

Il principio di proporzionalità è ormai uno dei concetti centrali del costituzionalismo globale, di fatto una parte essenziale della grammatica di una nuova lingua franca che fa dialogare e interagire attori giuridici sostanzialmente in tutto il mondo, agevolando la circolazione di modelli giuridici e di standard di argomentazione. In questo saggio intendo discutere due questioni attinenti al profilo della legittimità dell’utilizzazione del test di proporzionalità in sede giudiziaria. La prima questione riguarda la compatibilità tra l’utilizzo sempre più diffuso del test di proporzionalità e l’intensità della tutela che ci aspettiamo debbano ricevere i diritti fondamentali. La seconda quest…

Maxwell’s Equations

2012

The empirical basis of electrodynamics is defined by Faraday’s law of induction, by Gauss’ law, by the law of Biot and Savart and by the Lorentz force and the principle of universal conservation of electric charge. These laws can be tested – confirmed or falsified – in realistic experiments. The integral form of the laws deals with physical objects that are one-dimensional, two-dimensional, or three-dimensional, that is to say, objects such as linear wires, conducting loops, spatial charge distributions, etc. Thus, the integral form depends, to some extent, on the concrete experimental set-up. To unravel the relationships between seemingly different phenomena, one must switch from the integ…
