Conservation and people: Towards an ethical code of conduct for the use of camera traps in wildlife research

2020

International audience; Abstract 1. Camera trapping is a widely employed tool in wildlife research, used to estimate animal abundances, understand animal movement, assess species richness and understand animal behaviour. In addition to images of wild animals, research cameras often record human images, inadvertently capturing behaviours ranging from innocuous actions to potentially serious crimes. 2. With the increasing use of camera traps, there is an urgent need to reflect on how researchers should deal with human images caught on cameras. On the one hand, it is important to respect the privacy of individuals caught on cameras, while, on the other hand, there is a larger public duty to re…

Application of modern computer algebra systems in food formulations and development: A case study

2017

Abstract Background Nutritional security determines the level of public health within a population while inadequate nutrition is one of the major factors in development of various health problems. This can be alleviated with sufficient and affordable access to currently available or newly designed nutritious foods. Scope and approach Formulation of new foods can be very costly, so methods able to lower design expanses are of utmost importance to the industry. Hence, the purpose of this work was to rationalize utilization of modern computerized algebraic systems (CAS) in solving traditional problems for formulating food mixtures by food combinatoric principles (FCP). Key findings and conclus…

Food Processing at a Crossroad

2019

Recently, processed foods received negative images among consumers and experts regarding food-health imbalance. This stresses the importance of the food processing—nutrition interface and its relevance within the diet-health debates. In this review, we approach the related questions in a 3-fold way. Pointing out the distinguished role food processing has played in the development of the human condition and during its 1.7 million year old history, we show the function of food processing for the general design principles of food products. Secondly, a detailed analysis of consumer related design principles and processing reveals questions remaining from the historical transformation from basic…

Breaking the Dominance of Dominant Voices: How the Therapist Promotes Assimilation by Facilitating Dialogue with the Client’s Problematic Voices

2019

Assimilation requires a dialogue between the client’s dominant and non-dominant internal voices, that is between the client’s usual self and his or her problematic experiences. This dialogue is est...

Democratic Principles and the Economic Branch of the European Monetary Union

2017

L'articolo si propone di indagare sul valore che i vari principi democratici enunciati nel TUE hanno nello specifico settore dell'UEM, in particolare nel pilastro della politica economica, dopo l'entrata in vigore delle riforme contenute nel Six pack e nel successivo Two Pack. Il lavoro intende in particolare rispondere a tre domande: A) le regole contenute nel six pack e nel two pack in tema di controllo democratico sono espressione di un preciso modello di controllo democratico sulle scelte di politica economica nell'ambito dell'UEM? B) E' un simile modello compatibile con i principi democratici del TUE? C) I principi democratici non rappresentativi possono compensare il minor peso che vi…

The many faces of human sociality: uncovering the distribution and stability of social preferences

2018

There is vast heterogeneity in the human willingness to weigh others' interests in decision making. This heterogeneity concerns the motivational intricacies as well as the strength of other-regarding behaviors, and raises the question how one can parsimoniously model and characterize heterogeneity across several dimensions of social preferences while still being able to predict behavior over time and across situations. We tackle this task with an experiment and a structural model of preferences that allows us to simultaneously estimate outcome-based and reciprocity-based social preferences. We find that non-selfish preferences are the rule rather than the exception. Neither at the level of …

Neutralidad y honorabilidad del árbitro: : De la ética a la diligencia

2021

One of the main principles of arbitration is that the arbitral tribunal must be independent, impartial, neutral and diligent in carrying out its duties throughout the arbitration proceedings. However, the sophistication and complexity of arbitration as an extra-judicial dispute resolution procedure can undermine confidence in the efficiency of the system. In this regard, the professional (arbitral) ethics and the honourability of the arbitrator are of major importance. This article aims to highlight the importance of the neutrality of the arbitrator, the integrity of the arbitration and the reputation of this procedure
