$PT$-symmetry and Schrödinger operators. The double well case
2016
International audience; We study a class of $PT$-symmetric semiclassical Schrodinger operators, which are perturbations of a selfadjoint one. Here, we treat the case where the unperturbed operator has a double-well potential. In the simple well case, two of the authors have proved in [6] that, when the potential is analytic, the eigenvalues stay real for a perturbation of size $O(1)$. We show here, in the double-well case, that the eigenvalues stay real only for exponentially small perturbations, then bifurcate into the complex domain when the perturbation increases and we get precise asymptotic expansions. The proof uses complex WKB-analysis, leading to a fairly explicit quantization condi…
Hemispheric asymmetry in the visual contribution to postural control in healthy adults.
1997
International audience; This study was carried out in order to test the hypothesis of a right hemisphere dominance in the visual control of body balance. Eight healthy adults were subjected to a self-regulated lateral balance task, performed while sitting on a rocking platform. Four visual conditions were tested: open eyes with normal vision, closed eyes in the dark, left visual field-right hemisphere and right visual field-left hemisphere. Head and support displacements in the roll plane were recorded by means of an optoelectronic system. Two main results emerged from this study: (1) head stabilization in space was much more efficient in the left visual field-right hemisphere condition tha…

Ressources naturelles et développement dans le monde tropical : les contradictions entre dynamiques écologiques, reproduction sociale et ordre économ…
2013
Natural resources are in the midst of contradictory dynamics. While they are essential to the reproduction of societies and life, actual organization of the world economy subordinates them to logics of accumulation. In addition to the fact that these logics don't take into account (consider) the physical limits inside of which humanity evolves, they induce problematic socio-ecological inequalities at different scales. Indeed, actual international economic order tends to generate ecologically unequal exchanges, which disrupt the development of primary exporting countries and threaten the most vulnerable populations and ecosystems inside of them.Tropics are the typical context in which such c…
Vērtībizglītība angļu valodas stundās vidusskolā
2019
Vērtībizglītība ir nozīmīga modernas un kvalitatīvas izglītības daļa, kura savu aktualitāti ir veicinājusi arī izglītības satura reformu kontekstā Latvijā. Tādēļ maģistra darba mērķis bija gan iepazīt vertībizglītības teoriju, gan izpētīt, kā izmantot vērtībizglītības pieeju vidusskolā angļu valodas stundās. Lai mērķi sasniegtu, Autors veica atsevišķa gadījuma pētījumu un izmantoja īpaši atlasītus uzdevumus angļu valodas nodarbībās vidusskolā, lai veicinātu skolēnu izpratni par vērtībām. Autors secināja, ka uzdevumi ir noderīgi, un uzdevumu izmantošana paaugstināja audzēkņu izpratni par vērtībām. Autors secināja, ka ir ļoti aktuāli mācīt un stāstīt par vērtībizglītību visas stundās. Maģistr…
Poziom akceptacji wartości witalnych i estetycznych a stereotypowe myślenie o starszych pracownikach studentów kierunków Ekonomia i Zarządzanie
2019
A growing number of old employees should be employed in future organisations, particularly in highly developed countries, and because of at least two reasons. First, the populations of many countries are aging. Second, the time of remaining active on the labour market is prolonging. The barriers for older workers on this market include age stereotypes regarding such workers. Therefore, it is important to know individual characteristics that are associated with stereotyped thinking about older workers. This paper presents the results of the research related to the relations between such thinking and two personal values. The results of the statistical analysis indicate that persons with low a…
Aksjologiczny wymiar rodzicielstwa
2016
Współczesny świat stwarza różne sytuacje zagrożenia dla procesów prawidłowego wychowania dzieci. Problem ten w szczególny sposób dotyka wielu polskich rodzin, które nie znalazły należnego im miejsca w wolnorynkowej rzeczywistości, jaka ma w naszym kraju miejsce od 1990 r. Mieszanie się nacji, kultur, religii sprzyja powstawaniu nowych, często dotychczas nieznanych problemów, zagrażających prawidłowemu funkcjonowaniu dziecka w rodzinie i społeczeństwie. Dlatego rola rodziców w kształtowaniu właściwych postaw u dzieci nabiera dziś szczególnego znaczenia. Uwzględniając jednak tempo przemian, warto zwrócić uwagę na konieczność przekazywania dzieciom pewnych uniwersalnych zasad z jednoczesnym za…

Impact of information and in-home sensory exposure on liking and willingness to pay: The beginning of Fairtrade labeled coffee in France.
2015
This study was conducted to assess how the Fairtrade label interacts with the perception of intrinsic product characteristics on liking and purchase decisions and to estimate the evolution of this interaction after exposure to the coffees and/or exposure to ethical information. In a first session, 119 consumers gave liking scores for 2 regular and 2 Fairtrade coffees under a blind tasting condition. Then, they were asked to indicate the maximum price they would pay for each product in 2 auctions taking place under different information conditions. In the first auction, participants saw the packaging but did not taste the coffee; in the second auction, they could both taste the coffee and se…
Relationships between personality traits and values in middle aged men and women
2018
The present study analyzed the relations between the Big Five personality traits (neuroticism, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience) and 14 values (societal concern, tolerance, protecting nature, caring, dependability, autonomy of thought, autonomy of action, stimulation, hedonism, achievement, tradition, security, conformity, and power) in middle-aged women and men. The 50-year-old participants (women n = 107 and men n = 105) were drawn from the ongoing Finnish Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Personality and Social Development. The personality traits were assessed using the 60-item NEO Five Factor Inventory. Values were measured using the 46-item versi…
