Efficacy of protection by latex gloves during orthodontic therapy.

2000

The wearing of gloves during orthodontic or dental treatment is generally indicated for reasons of hygiene and protection against infection. This study was aimed at determining the extent and localization of perforations caused by the various orthodontic treatment techniques and interrupting the infection barrier. The impermeability was tested by means of a water retention test according to European standard EN 455, Part 1, performed on 1600 Centramed (Centramed, Koblenz), Tekmedic and SafeEx non-sterile disposable latex gloves (both by Safe Med, Switzerland) and Safe Gan latex gloves with an additional acrylate coating (also by Safe Med). The perforation rate in unused gloves was between 0…

Une dialectique de la mémoire et de l'oubli : "Hiroshima mon amour" de Marguerite Duras

2022

Hiroshima mon amour depicts tight relations between memory and oblivion. The novel ’s love story takes place in France ’s collective memory, but it also refers to the individual memory of a woman evoking past events. Consequently, the encounter with another human being (a man) allows her to confront her personal trauma. This confrontation can be perceived as a quest for one ’s own identity and history, i.e. the alienation history of an individual who – due to an unhappy love affair – cannot escape either the past or oblivion. The permeation of these two notions is emphasised by diverse time perspectives which overlap each other, allowing for an intertextual reading of Duras ’ script. Hence,…

A Contribution to the Schumpeterian Growth Theory and Empirics

2010

Soumis à Journal of Economic Growth; Document de Recherche LEO 2008-25; Cet article propose un cadre théorique et méthodologique unifie caractérisé par la priseen compte explicite des intéractions technologiques dans la modélisation des processus decroissance en adoptant une perspective Schumpétérienne. L'interdépendance globale impliquée par les spillovers internationaux de R&D doit être intégrée non seulement dans lamodélisation théorique mais également dans la spécification économétrique qui en découle.L'économétrie spatiale apparaît alors naturellement comme la méthodologie adéquate pourtraiter le problème de l'estimation de telles spécifications.

International R&D spillovers in the multi-country Schumpeterian growth model

2007

en ligne : http://ungaro.u-bourgogne.fr/pages/Documents%20de%20travail/Economie/e2007-04.pdf; Document de travail du LEG 2007-04; This paper reconsiders the multi-country Schumpeterian growth model and its empirical implications. We first show that the model implies a spatial econometric reduced form. Indeed, the global interdependence implied by international R&D spillovers needs to betaken into account in the theoretical model as well as in the empirical model. The spatial econometric model we propose includes the neoclassical growth model as a particular case. We can therefore test explicitly the role of R&D investment in the long run growth processagainst the Solow growth model which is…

A note on normalization schemes: The case of generalized forecast error variance decompositions

2016

The aim of this paper is to propose new normalization schemes for the values obtained from the generalized forecast error variance decomposition, in order to obtain more reliable net spillover measures. We provide a review of various matrix normalization schemes used in different application domains. The intention is to contribute to the financial econometrics literature aimed at building a bridge between different approaches able to detect spillover effects, such as spatial regressions and network analyses. Considering DGPs characterized by different degrees of correlation and persistence, we show that the popular row normalization scheme proposed by Diebold and Yilmaz (2012), as well as t…

Customer-Brand Relationships in the Context of Digital Brands

2022

This qualitative study investigates customer-brand relationships between customers and digital brands. This study aims to describe different digital brand relationship types, and their manifestations among young adult customers. The data collection was conducted in 2021 by interviewing fourteen Finnish adults aged 22-31 years. The findings categorize the customer-brand relationships into four relationship types, according to the relationship strength from weak to strong. Brand liking lacks emotions and is characterized by low commitment towards a digital brand. Brand attachment includes having a slight barrier of digital brand replacement, and emotions towards the brand are weak. Brand lovi…

"Mroczna otchłań". Archetypowa interpretacja opowiadania "Przemiana Juana Romero" Howarda P. Lovecrafta

2020

The setting of “The Transition of Juan Romero” – the short story by Howard Phillips Lovecraft, who was the originator of modern American horror fiction – is “the gold mine in the Cactus Range”. Drawing on the theories of Carl Gustav Jung, the author of the present interpretation amplifies the cultural dimensions of Lovecraft’s text, giving prominence to its origin from the ancient myths of the Aztecs, and using the so-called psychological alchemy to show the archetypal symbolism and structure of the story. Such a critical perspective, which takes into account different layers of the authorial intentionality and the reader’s response, reveals the complexity of the characters and situations, …
