Developmental pathways of language development : a longitudinal predictive study from prelinguistic stage to outcome at school entry

2017

This research focused on the pathways of development during the prelinguistic stage and from prelinguistic development to later language ability. The first goal was to follow and describe the development of several prelinguistic communication skills during the first two years of life (Studies I and II). The second goal was to examine the predictive relations between this development and language ability and difficulties, as well as memory, up to school age (Studies I, II, and III). The third goal evaluated the feasibility of parental screening in identifying children at risk for language and communication difficulties (Studies I, II, and III). Prelinguistic skills were followed with a paren…

Multi-Chip RFID Antenna Integrating Shape-Memory Alloys for Detection of Thermal Thresholds

2011

Low-cost wireless measurement of objects' temperature is one of the greatest expectation of radiofrequency identification technology for the so many applications in cold supply-chain control and safety assessment in general. In this context, the paper proposes a dual-chip UHF tag embedding shape memory alloys (SMA) able to transform the variation of the tagged item's temperature into a permanent change of antenna radiation features. This event-driven antenna is hence able to selectively activate the embedded microchips according to the temperature above or below a given threshold. A general design methodology for the resulting two-ports tag antenna is here introduced and then applied to pro…

Social Determinants of Success: Social Media, Corporate Governance and Revenue

2019

This study examined how social media (Twitter and LinkedIn) relates to the operating revenue by investigating the effect of the use of social media by the board of directors. To tackle this question, we analyzed the mediating and moderating relationship of social media on the effect of board size in operating revenue (turnover). We studied the implications of the use of social media by the board members by using structural equation modeling (SEM). The data consisted of a random sample of 100 companies listed on the NASDAQ. The study makes two main contributions. First, it shows interesting differences in the use of social media for the operating revenue. Our results suggest that while Twitt…

Ślady (nie)pamięci o Porajmosie. Kulturowa mapa romskiego holokaustu w Serbii i Chorwacji

2019

Giergiel and Taczyńska explore the memory of the Romani Holocaust (Porajmos) in the countries of former Yugoslavia (Serbia and Croatia). The memory of Porajmos is considered here as a social and cultural construct that has a history typical for a particular country/region; however, this subject is commonly marginalized, both in historiography and in cultural texts. Giergiel and Taczyńska examine the causes of Porajmos (social group discrimination, specificity of cultural code, historical discrimination) and the reasons for the absence of memory (mute memory) of Porajmos. The overview of Porajmos research in the post-Yugoslavarea and the discussion of commemorative practices related to the R…

Lauku diskurss presē latviešu valodā Latvijā (1989-2012)

2014

Promocijas darbā analizēts preses veidotais lauku diskurss un tā izmaiņas sociālekonomisko un citu apstākļu ietekmē no 1989. līdz 2012. gadam. Pētījumā aplūkotas laukiem, to iedzīvotājiem un zemniecībai piedēvētās nozīmes, rezultātus skatot nacionālās identitātes un sociālās atmiņas kontekstā. Teorētiskajā daļā izskaidrota lauku un nācijas saikne, nacionālās identitātes, sociālās atmiņas jēdzieni un komunikācijas loma nācijas re-iztēlošanas procesā. Konteksta uztverei darbu papildina latviešu nacionālās identitātes izpratnes, lauku un lauksaimniecības attīstības, mediju vides un tēmas izpētes līmeņa apraksts. Empīriskie dati iegūti ar diskursa vēsturisko analīzi un kvantitatīvo kontentanalī…
