Creative Arts Therapies and PTSD bibliography-web

The author argues that ours has been called an age of trauma. Yet, neither trauma nor PTSD are scientific concepts. Trauma has been around forever, even if it was not called that. PTSD is the creation of a group of Vietnam veterans and psychiatrists, designed to help explain veterans’ suffering. This does not detract from the value of PTSD, but sets its historical and social context. The author confronts the attempt to study trauma scientifically, exploring the use of technologies such as magnetic resonance imagining (MRI). He concludes that the scientific study of trauma often reflects a willed ignorance of traumatic experience: in the end, trauma is about suffering.
3-4-vuotiaiden lasten fyysinen aktiivisuus päiväkodissa eri vuodenaikoina sekä varhaiskasvattajan kannustuksen yhteys lasten fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen

TIIVISTELMA: Taman tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittaa 3-4-vuotiaiden lasten fyysisen aktiivisuuden intensiteetin eroja paivakodissa eri vuodenaikoina seka varhaiskasvattajan kannustuksen yhteytta lasten fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen. Tutkimusjoukko muodostui paivakotien vuonna 2007 syntyneista vapaaehtoisista lapsista. Tutkimusaineisto kerattiin havainnoimalla OSRAC-P -havainnointimenetelman avulla 14 paivakodissa tammi-helmikuussa (N 94) seka elo-syyskuussa (N 118) vuonna 2011. Lasten fyysinen aktiivisuus oli paaosan ajasta (noin 60 %) intensiteetiltaan erittain kevytta. Intensiteetiltaan vahintaan keskiraskaan fyysisen aktiivisuuden esiintyvyys oli noin 10 %. Vuodenajalla oli erittain merkitseva yhteys lasten fyysisen aktiivisuuden intensiteettiin, silla lapset olivat huomattavasti aktiivisempia elo-syyskuussa kuin tammi-helmikuussa. Varhaiskasvattajat kannustivat lapsia vain harvoin fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen, vaikka lasten aktiivisuus oli merkitsevasti suurempaa kannustettaessa. Varhaiskasvattajan kannustusta sisaltaneissa tilanteissa lasten fyysinen aktiivisuus oli merkitsevasti suurempaa elo-syyskuussa kuin tammi-helmikuussa. Jatkossa tulisikin kiinnittaa huomiota siihen, miten paivakodeissa voitaisiin hyodyntaa eri vuodenajat paremmin ja mahdollistaa lapsille fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen kannustavat olosuhteet ympari vuoden.

Old and New Growth Theories: Which Role for Aggregate Demand?

1. This essay deals with the role played by aggregate demand in the theories of growth that have historically emerged. It wants to attract the attention of the readers to those parts of the economic literature, which have underlined that the autonomous components of aggregate demand can have an influence on growth. There is a tendency in modern literature to disregard this influence and to accept Say’s Law, which has constantly enjoyed a large consensus in the history of economic thought. Yet, as will be argued in the following pages, the validity of Say’s Law has always been disputed and, for some decades after the great depression, it was denied by the largest part of the profession. Since the 1970’s, the Law has been regaining consensus and nowadays represents by far the prevailing view. Thus, in the New Growth Theories, which are the most established theories of growth in modern literature, Say’s Law holds and autonomous demand has no influence on the rate of growth, owing to the assumption that investment decisions are directly generated by saving decisions.
The Impact of Caring on Family Carers

Supporting the role of informal carers (family and friends providing mostly unpaid care to frail seniors) is important to provide an adequate continuum of care between informal and formal care. While caregiving can be beneficial for carers in terms of their self-esteem, it can be difficult for working-age carers to combine paid work with caring duties and carers may choose to quit paid works or reduce the work hours. This may compromise their future employability and lead to permanent drop-out from the labour market. Caring may also cause burnout and stress, potentially leading to worsening physical and mental health. This chapter offers an overview of the characteristics of family carers and the impact of caring for frail seniors on labour market and health outcomes of carers. This will provide insights in how to shape policy reforms with the objectives of 1) helping carers to combine caring responsibilities with paid work; and 2) improving carers’ physical and mental wellbeing by reducing mental health problems. Countries which want to maintain or increase reliance on family carers will need to alleviate the burden of family carers and reduce the economic costs associated with caring responsibilities.
Slow Magnetosonic Waves in Coronal Plumes

Recent observations of polar plumes in the southern solar coronal hole by the Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) on board the SOHO spacecraft show signatures of quasi-periodic compressional waves with periods of 10-15 minutes. The relative wave amplitude was found to increase with height in the plumes up to about 1.2 R☉. Using a one-dimensional linear wave equation for the magnetosonic wave, we show that the waves are propagating and that their amplitude increases with height. The observed propagation velocity agrees well with the expected sound velocity inside the plumes. We present the results of the first nonlinear, two-dimensional, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the magnetosonic waves in plumes for typical coronal conditions consistent with observations and gravitationally stratified solar corona. We find numerically that outward-propagating slow magnetosonic waves are trapped, and nonlinearly steepen in the polar plumes. The nonlinear steepening of the magnetosonic waves may contribute significantly to the heating of the lower corona by compressive dissipation.

Asperger's Syndrome | The Encyclopedia Of Neurops... - Credo Reference

Asperger's syndrome was first described by Hans Asperger, a Viennese pediatrician, in 1944, who published a clinical description of a group of children who shared an unusual combination of developmental weakness and strengths. These children had severe social and communication abnormalities, restricted interests, motor delays, and clumsiness. Asperger initially named this syndrome autistic psychopathy (Miller & Ozonoff, 2000). However, although he noted the aforementioned deficits, this group of children acquired language at normal or earlier age and had normal intelligence and some specific strong abilities such as visuospatial skills and verbal abstraction abilities. In 1943, the child psychiatrist Leo Kanner published a description of a group of children with similar characteristics but with no mention of motor deficits as a core symptom of the syndrome.
Evaluating the Productivity of Researchers and their Communities: The RP-Index and the CP-Index

While the h-Index and the g-Index (as the major indices for quantifying the academic performance of researchers) take into consideration the citation count of publications, some other important indicators of research output (i.e. the number of authors per paper, lead author, year of publication) are omitted. Those indicators have to be considered in order to evaluate the productivity of researchers comprehensively. This paper analyzes the different indicators and proposes two new indices, the RP-Index and the CP-Index. The RP-Index evaluates the productivity of a researcher and the CP-Index evaluates the productivity of a group of researchers. After showing how these new indices can be applied and how they compare to the existing ones, an assessment of the two new indices is given.

Diffusion Index-Based Inflation Forecasts for the Euro Area

Diffusion indexes based on dynamic factors have recently been advocated by Stock and Watson (1998), and further used to perform forecasting tests by the same authors on US data. This technique is explored for the euro area using a multi-country data set and a broad array of variables, in order to test the inflation forecasting performance of extracted factors at the aggregate euro area level. First, a description of factors extracted from different data sets is performed using a number of different approaches. Conclusions reached are that nominal phenomena in the original variables might be well captured in-sample using the factor approach. Out-of-sample tests have more ambiguous interpretation, as factors seem to be good leading indicators of inflation, but the comparative advantage of the factors is less clear. Nevertheless, alternative indicators such as unemployment or money growth do not outperform them JEL Classification: C53, E31, E37
Conceptual Learning of Functions in a Technologically Enhanced Environment

It is a known fact that South African learners underachieve in mathematics. One possible factor that might have an influence on their mathematics achievement is the conceptual knowledge of mathematics teachers. In order to facilitate conceptual understanding, mathematics teachers themselves must possess profound mathematical knowledge. One key aspect of the complex landscape of pre-service mathematics teacher education is the development of pre-service teachers’ mathematical knowledge. Various studies have suggested that pre-service teachers need to be exposed to the meaningful learning of mathematics as a way to develop their mathematical knowledge for teaching. By using a mixed methods approach, this study examined the influence of a technologically enhanced learning environment on the conceptual understanding of mathematical functions of pre-service mathematics teachers. Using a hybrid model of O'Callaghan's framework and Dreyfus's typology, pre-service teachers were tested on the modelling, interpretation, translation and reifying of functions. Data were gathered from a pre-post-test, as well as from task-based interviews. The results revealed that there was no improvement in the first three components, but a significant improvement in the reification component.
Intelligent Spectrum Handoff via Docitive Learning in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs)

Abstract : In this project, we target the design of a Docitive Learning (also called transfer learning) based spectrum handoff design in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs). If the current channel quality is below a threshold, the secondary user (SU) should make one of the following decisions: (1) stay in the same channel and wait for it to become idle again (this strategy is called wait-and-stay), (2) stay in the same channel and adjust the channel parameters according to the varying channel conditions (this strategy is called stay-and-adjust), or (3) switch to another idle channel that meets its QoS requirement (this is the conventional spectrum handoff). In this project, we have applied a critic-based transfer learning model to implement an intelligent spectrum handoff with both node-to-node learning and self-learning. Additionally, a multi-teacher-based transfer learning scheme is used to learn handoff parameters from multiple neighbors. We have also built a comprehensive CRN testbed for spectrum handoff test. Such a testbed has other essential CRN components, such as spectrum sensing, mining and handoff.
Properly ergodic structures

We consider ergodic $\mathrm{Sym}(\mathbb{N})$-invariant probability measures on the space of $L$-structures with domain $\mathbb{N}$ (for $L$ a countable relational language), and call such a measure a properly ergodic structure when no isomorphism class of structures is assigned measure $1$. We characterize those theories in countable fragments of $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1, \omega}$ for which there is a properly ergodic structure concentrated on the models of the theory. We show that for a countable fragment $F$ of $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1, \omega}$ the almost-sure $F$-theory of a properly ergodic structure has continuum-many models (an analogue of Vaught's Conjecture in this context), but its full almost-sure $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1, \omega}$-theory has no models. We also show that, for an $F$-theory $T$, if there is some properly ergodic structure that concentrates on the class of models of $T$, then there are continuum-many such properly ergodic structures.
LONG-RANGE TAIL DEPENDENCE: EDM VS. EXTREMOGRAM

The dependence of large values in a stochastic process is an important topic in risk, insurance and finance. The idea of risk contagion is based on the idea of large value dependence. The Gaussian copula notoriously fails to capture this phenomenon. Two notions in a process context which attempt to summarize this extremal dependence in a function comparable to a sample correlation function are the extremal dependence measure (EDM) and the extremogram. We review these ideas and compare the two tools and end with a central limit theorem for a natural estimator of the EDM which allows drawing confidence bands comparable to those provided by Bartlett’s formula in a classical context of sample correlation functions.

Rags to Riches - How Signaling Behaviour Causes a Power Shift in Crowdsourcing Markets

Crowdsourcing has emerged as new form of digital work organization. This novel socio-technical ar-rangement changes the organization of work as well as its general nature. In this paper, we focus on the crowdworkers – a perspective that has been largely neglected by crowdsourcing research. We re-port results from crowdworker-interviews on two different platforms. Our research shows that quality signals of crowdworkers increase the bargaining power towards their principals, i.e. the crowdsourcers. As a result, the crowdworkers can reach a turning point of critical bargaining power at which the distribution of power shifts in their favor. We contribute to the literature by unraveling signaling behavior as mechanism influencing bargaining power and thus success in crowdsourcing. Beyond, we develop a theoretical model that indicates a shift in bargaining power over time and im-proves our understanding of crowdsourcing as novel way of organizing digital work. For practice, our results provide guidelines for crowdworkers how to improve their position in bargaining in relation to the crowdsourcer.
Hard-to-Survey Populations: Data collection strategies for the hard to survey

This book offers the first systematic look at the populations and settings that make surveys hard to conduct and at the methods researchers use to meet these challenges. It covers a wide range of populations (immigrants, persons with intellectual difficulties, and political extremists) and settings (war zones, homeless shelters) that offer special problems or present unusual challenges for surveys. The team of international contributors also addresses sampling strategies including methods such as respondent-driven sampling and examines data collection strategies including advertising and other methods for engaging otherwise difficult populations.
Simulations of Galaxy Formation in a ΛCDM Universe. III. The Dissipative Formation of an Elliptical Galaxy

We examine the dynamical structure of an elliptical galaxy simulated in the ΛCDM scenario. The morphology of the galaxy evolves dramatically over time in response to the mode and timing of mass accretion; smooth deposition of cooled gas leads to the formation of centrifugally supported disks, while major mergers disperse stellar disks into spheroids. In the case we consider here, these two modes of accretion alternate successively until z ~ 0.6, when the galaxy undergoes one last major (1 : 3) merger. The event triggers a starburst that consumes much of the remaining gas into stars. Little gas cools and accretes subsequently, and as a result, most stars at z = 0 are rather old (75% are older than 9 Gyr) and distributed in a spheroidal component that resembles present-day elliptical galaxies. Dynamically, the galaxy is well approximated by an E4 oblate rotator, with rotational support increasing steadily from the center outward. The apparent rotation support, as measured by Vrot/σ, correlates strongly with isophotal deviations from perfect ellipses. Boxy isophotes are obtained when the galaxy is seen face-on and Vrot/σ ≪ 1. On the other hand, disky isophotes are found for inclinations that maximize Vrot/σ. The line-of-sight velocity distribution is nearly Gaussian at all radii, although small but significant deviations are robustly measured. The sign of the Gauss-Hermite skewness parameter h3 is anticorrelated with the apparent sense of rotation, in agreement with observed trends. Despite its relatively recent assembly, the simulated galaxy has much higher effective surface brightness than normal elliptical galaxies of similar luminosity, in a way reminiscent of the less common type of M32-like "compact elliptical galaxies. " This is likely a direct consequence of our star formation and feedback algorithm, which allows for efficient transformation of gas into stars in dense, early collapsing progenitors rather than a definitive prediction for the structure of galaxies assembled in this ΛCDM halo. Despite this limitation, our simulation suggests that dark matter plays a minor role in the luminous regions of compact elliptical galaxies, whose dynamical mass-to-light ratios are thus not dissimilar to those of normal elliptical galaxies. This explains the proximity of compact elliptical galaxies to edge-on projections of the fundamental plane, despite their far greater velocity dispersion at given luminosity. Overall, our simulation shows that repeated episodes of dissipational collapse, followed by merger events, lead to stellar spheroids that are only mildly triaxial and of relatively simple kinematic structure. This is in better agreement with observation than earlier models based on dissipationless mergers of stellar disks and a positive step toward reconciling the observed structure of elliptical galaxies with a hierarchical assembly process where mergers play a substantial role.
SECOND-ORDER SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF 2DELASTIC PROBLEM BY ELEMENT-FREE TREFFTZMETHOD

This paper presents a new scheme for the second-order shape design sensitivity analysis of two-dimensional elastic problem by the element-free Trefftz Method. In the Trefftz method, the physical quantities are approximated by the superposition of the regular T-complete functions satisfying the governing equation. Therefore, the direct differentiation of the approximate expressions with respect to the shape parameter leads to the regular expressions of the sensitivities. The present scheme is applied to the shape design sensitivity analysis of a circular cylinder under internal pressure.

Moderate and Large Deviations for the Erd\H{o}s-Kac Theorem

The Erd\H{o}s-Kac theorem is a celebrated result in number theory which says that the number of distinct prime factors of a uniformly chosen random integer satisfies a central limit theorem. In this paper, we establish the large deviations and moderate deviations for this problem in a very general setting for a wide class of additive functions.
