THE COACH-ATHLETE RELATIONSHIP IN BASKETBALL. ANALYSIS OF THE ANTECEDENTS, COMPONENTS AND OUTCOMES

The aim of the study was to examine the coach-athlete relationship by analyzing the determinants of the quality of that relationship, the components emerged from previous constraints and the outcomes of the relationship. We accomplished a qualitative study using semistructured in-depth interviews with a total of 4 dyads (2 coaches and 4 players) selected deliberately. The data obtained suggested that the coach-athlete relationship in basketball is organized into three layers: a) relationship antecedent variables (coach’s and athlete’s behaviour and values wanted), b) components (behaviours, feelings, cognitions, improvement and maintenance strategies, and management of differences) and c) the consequences or outcomes (the coach and the player). In conclusion, we found that the different antecedents determine the components of the relationship, generating, in the case of positive relationships, satisfaction, wellbeing and performance, representing a personal and professional growth in both members of the dyad.
The influence of childhood abuse on longitudinal course of recovery in psychiatric rehabilitation

Background: Empirical outcome studies have identified specific symptomatic, cognitive, emotional and functional sequelae of childhood abuse in people with severe mental illness (SMI). These findings illuminate the need for an integrated understanding of biological, psychological, environmental, and developmental aspects of SMI. Purpose: The purpose of the present study includes the following: 1) to examine reliability and validity of the comprehensive child abuse rating system in a sample of individuals with SMI, 2) to examine the influence of childhood abuse severity on recovery of psychotic symptoms, neurocognition and social-cognition, and social functioning in people with SMI during 12 months of inpatient psychiatric rehabilitation, and 3) to examine moderating effects of social cognition on the relationship between severity of different types of child abuse history and social functioning. Results: In Study I (N=171), the child abuse rating system produced reliable ratings and some subtypes of child abuse history were related to poorer premorbid functioning and cognition, higher overall psychiatric symptoms, and lower social functioning. In Study II (N=161), the longitudinal factor pattern invariance of the measures of social functioning, externality, and psychiatric symptoms were confirmed across 3 time points (e.g., at admission, at 6 months, and at 12 months). In addition, significant but varied linear relationships between subtypes of child abuse and each level of assessment of functioning were identified. In Study III (N=143), the results showed that higher baseline social inference, independent of history of child physical abuse (CPA), played a protective role in improvements in social functioning. High externality appeared to be counter-therapeutic for individuals with no history of CPA but protective for individuals with a more severe history of CPA. Conclusion: The child abuse rating system appears to provide reliable and valid assessment of subtypes of child abuse history of individuals with SMI. Considering the extreme heterogeneity in both SMI and child maltreatment, the current finding sheds light on providing individualized treatment and assessment planning for individuals with SMI and a history of childhood abuse.
The Weight Distribution of Some Irreducible Cyclic Codes

Irreducible cyclic codes have been an interesting subject of study for a long time. Their weight distribution is known in only a few cases. In this paper, the weight distribution of the irreducible cyclic codes in a number of other cases is determined. The number of nonzero weights in the codes dealt with in this paper varies between one and four.
Apoyo a la autonomía, satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas y bienestar :

La teoria de las necesidades psicologicas basicas (Deci y Ryan, 2000) defiende que en los contextos sociales en los que se apoya la autonomia se promueve el bienestar a traves de la satisfaccion de las necesidades psicologicas basicas. En base a este marco teorico, el objetivo del presente trabajo fue triple: primero, poner a prueba un modelo en el que se analizaba la secuencia: percepcion del apoyo a la autonomia ofrecido por el profesor/entrenador - satisfaccion de las necesidades psicologicas basicas - bienestar; segundo, examinar el papel mediador de las necesidades, y tercero, estudiar la invarianza del modelo entre dos poblaciones. Participaron 197 bailarines (Medad = 18,65 ± 3,73) y 434 futbolistas (Medad = 13,90 ± 0,66) que respondieron a las variables de interes. Los resultados del SEM mostraron que la percepcion de apoyo a la autonomia predecia positivamente la satisfaccion de las necesidades de competencia, autonomia y relacion de los bailarines y los futbolistas, lo que a su vez predecia positivamente su vitalidad subjetiva y sus afectos positivos; los analisis de la mediacion mostraron que la satisfaccion de las tres necesidades medio de forma total la relacion entre la percepcion de apoyo a la autonomia y ambos indicadores de bienestar. Finalmente, los analisis multi-grupo revelaron la invarianza de las relaciones hipotetizadas entre los bailarines y los futbolistas. Los resultados enfatizan la importancia de promover climas de apoyo a la autonomia para facilitar el bienestar de los jovenes bailarines y futbolistas.
Feeling at home in time: Polish migrant families in Manchester

This thesis investigates the workings of belonging to explore the concept’s inherently temporal nature. Through in-depth qualitative case studies of ten Polish families who have moved to Manchester since the 2004 European Union enlargement, time is revealed as a prominent theme in the search for belonging. While the field of migration studies tends to portray migrant belonging as a simple linear accumulation, my study focuses on the more nuanced and complex way in which my participants’ relationship with time as a subjective, relational and lived experience of space has impacted on their migration stories. Time-space is prominent in their tales of searching for belonging as the Polish migrant families make the decision to leave their home country, make their new homes in Britain and face the decision whether to return or remain. By exploring the way in which homely time-spaces are (re)created, negotiated, and interpreted, I highlight the significant role of a temporal framework in understanding migrant belonging.
MEMORANDUM No 11 / 2000 The Hartwick rule : Myths and facts

We consider the Hartwick rule for capital accumulation and resource depletion, provide semantic clarifications and investigate whether this rule indicates sustainability and requires substitutability between manmade and natural capital. In addition to shedding light on the meaning of the Hartwick rule by reviewing established results, we establish the following novel finding: The value of net investments being negative does not imply that utility is unsustainable. Throughout we make the assumption of a constant technology, without which the Hartwick rule does not apply. JEL classification numbers: D9, Q3

Working Memory Performance in Typically Developing Children and Adolescents: Behavioral Evidence of Protracted Frontal Lobe Development

Post-mortem histological and in vivo neuroimaging findings both reveal frontal lobe development that extends beyond the adolescent years. Few studies have examined whether this protracted neurodevelopment coincides with improvements in adolescent performance on putative frontal lobe tasks. An instrumental function supported by the frontal lobes is working memory, the ability to maintain and manipulate information “online. ” This study investigated the performance of typically developing children and adolescents on a battery of working memory tasks. Findings revealed an improvement in performance on most working memory tasks across the adolescent years. In contrast, no improvement was observed on tasks largely supported by more posterior neural substrates. Current findings indicate a similar unfolding of the executive aspects of verbal working memory as previously demonstrated with spatial working memory. Factor analysis revealed a grouping of working memory tasks based largely on task demands, irrespective of working memory domain, adding support for process-specific models of prefrontal organization. Important implications for typical and atypical frontal lobe development are discussed.
ENDOTHELIAL CELL MITOSIS AND PERMEABILITY.

Endothelial cell regeneration following mechanical trauma to veins has been studied in the rabbit. Mitoses were observed most frequently on the 3rd day and stigmata and stomata probably representing intercellular gaps were observed at the equator of dividing endothelial cells during and after telophase. This could account for the increased permeability of growing capillaries.
Do employers really know what they want? An analysis of job advertisements for information and knowledge managers

The article is a report of an investigation of the business/practical world ’s perspective of the role and responsibilities of the information and knowledge manager and the analysis of the findings against a theoretical/academic background. Information about employment opportunities and requirements for the position of information and knowledge managers was extracted from job advertisements,which appeared in the three weekly national newspapers with the highest circulation figures in South Africa. The findings revealed that employers seem to have a problem indefining the position and role of the information and knowledge manager in their organisations. It also indicated that organisations should be aware of the fact that what the communicate to the public via job advertisements can reflect on their knowledge of information and knowledge management.
Endothelin‐1 and the kidney – beyond BP

Since its discovery over 20 years ago endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) has been implicated in a number of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Its role in the development and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is well established and is an area of ongoing intense research. There are now available a number of ET receptor antagonists many of which have been used in trials with CKD patients and shown to reduce BP and proteinuria. However, ET‐1 has a number of BP‐independent effects. Importantly, and in relation to the kidney, ET‐1 has clear roles to play in cell proliferation, podocyte dysfunction, inflammation and fibrosis, and arguably, these actions of ET‐1 may be more significant in the progression of CKD than its prohypertensive actions. This review will focus on the potential role of ET‐1 in renal disease with an emphasis on its BP‐independent actions.
Personality as a potential moderator of the relationship between stigma and help-seeking

Many persons who could potentially benefit from psychological services do not seek help or follow through with treatment. While there are a variety of reasons why an individual might not pursue psychological treatment, the stigma associated with seeking help has been identified as a significant obstacle. Stigma, the perception that one is flawed, is based upon a real or imagined personal characteristic that is deemed socially unacceptable. Two types of stigma (i.e., public stigma and self-stigma) are involved in the help-seeking process and serve to decrease positive attitudes toward helpseeking and one’s willingness to seek counseling. Researchers have recognized that dimensions of one’s personality (e.g., the Big Five), a pervasive aspect of human behavior, are likely to influence one’s experience of stigma and the role that stigma plays in one’s decision to seek help. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the role of personality in the relationship between stigma and one’s attitudes towards seeking professional assistance from a mental healthcare provider. The general hypothesis is that personality will play a moderating role in the relationship between the public stigma of seeking help and the self-stigma of seeking help, as well as the relationship between self-stigma and attitudes towards counseling. Based upon the general hypothesis, four specific hypotheses were formulated: 1) Neuroticism will amplify the statistically positive relationship between public stigma and self-stigma. 2) Neuroticism will amplify the statistically negative relationship between self-stigma and attitudes towards counseling. 3) Extraversion will moderate the relationship between public stigma and self-stigma and act as a “buffer,” so that persons with high reported Extraversion will have lower levels of selfstigma compared to individuals with low reported Extraversion. 4) Extraversion will moderate the relationship between self-stigma and attitudes towards counseling and act to
Tocilizumab in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and beyond

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disease characterized by joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and progressive destruction of the small joints of the hands and feet. Treatment of RA has improved over the past decade. With multiple cytokines well-known now to play a role in the pathogenesis of RA, including tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6, many targeted biological treatments against these cytokines have emerged, changing the treatment of this disease. Tocilizumab (TCZ) is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against the IL-6 receptor and has been approved in many countries, including the United States, for the treatment of moderate to severe RA in patients who have not adequately responded to one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or cannot tolerate other approved drug classes for RA. The aim of this review is to discuss the role of IL-6 in RA, and to provide an overview of the mode of action, pharmacokinetics, and safety of TCZ. Furthermore, efficacy studies of TCZ as both monotherapy and combination therapy will be evaluated. There have been several important clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of TCZ in RA patients; this review summarizes this data from 14 key trials with emphasis on Phase III trials. Review of these trials provides strong evidence that its use, both as monotherapy and in combination with methotrexate or other DMARDs, is an effective treatment in reducing the signs and symptoms of RA. TCZ showed tolerable safety but care is required for its use since there are some important safety concerns including elevated liver enzymes, elevated low-density lipoprotein, infections, and gastrointestinal perforations. Additionally, given the efficacy of TCZ in the treatment of RA, this review discusses how TCZ may be beneficial in the treatment of other autoimmune diseases, spinal disease, cardiovascular disease, organ transplantation, and malignancies where elevated levels of IL-6 may play a role in the pathogenesis of these diseases.
The relationships among work values, burnout, and organizational citizenship behaviors

Purpose – The purpose of this research is to identify that both work values and burnout are important predictors for promoting organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs). Moreover, this research also seeks to investigate the moderating impact of burnout on the relationships between work values and OCBs.Design/methodology/approach – A total of 310 employee‐supervisor dyads of hotel front‐line service employees in Taiwan were selected as the research participants. The employees were asked to provide information on the items about work values and burnout, and their supervisors were asked to complete items concerning the OCBs of their subordinates. A confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to investigate measurement reliability and validity. All hypothesized relationships and moderating effects were tested using hierarchical regression equations.Findings – It was found that both work values and burnout are important factors to consider for promoting OCBs. In addition, the study also proves that burnout as.
Who Did What to Whom? A Contrastive Study of Syntacto-Semantic Dependencies

We investigate aspects of interoperability between a broad range of common annotation schemes for syntacto-semantic dependencies. With the practical goal of making the LinGO Redwoods Treebank accessible to broader usage, we contrast seven distinct annotation schemes of functor--argument structure, both in terms of syntactic and semantic relations. Drawing examples from a multi-annotated gold standard, we show how abstractly similar information can take quite different forms across frameworks. We further seek to shed light on the representational 'distance' between pure bilexical dependencies, on the one hand, and full-blown logical-form propositional semantics, on the other hand. Furthermore, we propose a fully automated conversion procedure from (logical-form) meaning representation to bilexical semantic dependencies.
The ironic impact of activists: Negative stereotypes reduce social change influence

Despite recognizing the need for social change in areas such as social equality and environmental protection, individuals often avoid supporting such change. Researchers have previously attempted to understand this resistance to social change by examining individuals' perceptions of social issues and social change. We instead examined the possibility that individuals resist social change because they have negative stereotypes of activists, the agents of social change. Participants had negative stereotypes of activists (feminists and environmentalists), regardless of the domain of activism, viewing them as eccentric and militant. Furthermore, these stereotypes reduced participants' willingness to affiliate with ‘typical’ activists and, ultimately, to adopt the behaviours that these activists promoted. These results indicate that stereotypes and person perception processes more generally play a key role in creating resistance to social change. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Seizures in Alzheimer’s disease: a retrospective study of a cohort of outpatients

PurposeThe aim of our study was to define the frequency of seizures in a population of outpatients attending a cognitive function clinic in Italy and to identify risk factors for seizures in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.MethodsIn this retrospective study, we analyzed our clinical records to gather information on patients’ demographic, metabolic, cardiovascular and cognitive features. We sought to determine the significance of abnormal neuroimaging findings and the use of potentially epileptogenic drugs on the onset of seizures. From the records of 583 patients referred to the clinic for cognitive disturbances, we identified 145 patients with Alzheimer’s disease.ResultsOf these 145 patients, 14 (9.7%) had a history of complex partial or generalised seizures, or both. Of the risk factors identified, onset of seizures was associated with male gender and none of the patients with seizures had diabetes. The risk of seizure onset was higher in Alzheimer’s disease patients with hyperlipaemia and severe dementia. No other risk factors were identified, although hypertensive patients seemed to be protected.ConclusionsSeizures in Alzheimer’s disease are frequent and often under-recognized. In elderly patients, especially those with Alzheimer’s disease, correct diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent disease from worsening and disability from increasing. Patients with dementia should routinely undergo history-taking designed to elicit a history of seizures and define patients at high risk.
