Tropes in translation : An analysis of Dutch creative collocations and compounds translated into English

This PhD investigates how translators deal with poetic, idiosyncratic expressions: do they translate them into similarly idiosyncratic expressions, or do they resort to more formulaic language? In other words, do translators have a tendency to normalize creative expressions, as has been previously hypothesized? The research looked at six Dutch-language novels written by six award-winning authors, and translated into English by six award-winning translators. It focused on creative collocations and compounds, and made use of large reference corpora. The research found less normalization than previously reported, but discovered that certain poetic tropes tend to be normalized more than others. This PhD, however, is more than a corpus study: it also explores the extent to which creativity in translation can be explored through empirical corpus research.
Cultural Differences in Perceptual Strategies Underlying Emotion Regulation

Cultural norms for the experience, expression, and regulation of emotion vary widely between individualistic and collectivistic cultures. Collectivistic cultures value conformity, social harmony, and social status hierarchies, which demand sensitivity and focus to broader social contexts, such that attention is directed to contextual emotion information to effectively function within constrained social roles and suppress incongruent personal emotions. By contrast, individualistic cultures valuing autonomy and personal aspirations are more likely to attend to central emotion information and to reappraise emotions to avoid negative emotional experience. Here we examined how culture affects perceptual strategies employed during emotion regulation, particularly during cognitive reappraisal and emotional suppression. Eye movements were measured while healthy young adult participants viewed negative International Affective Picture System (IAPS) images and regulated emotions by using either strategies of reappraisal (19 Asian American, 21 Caucasian American) or suppression (21 Asian American, 23 Caucasian American). After image viewing, participants rated how negative they felt as a measure of subjective emotional experience. Consistent with prior studies, reappraisers made lower negative valence ratings after regulating emotions than suppressers across both Asian American and Caucasian American groups. Although no cultural variation was observed in subjective emotional experience during emotion regulation, we found evidence of cultural variation in perceptual strategies used during emotion regulation. During middle and late time periods of emotional suppression, Asian American participants made significantly fewer fixations to emotionally salient areas than Caucasian American participants. These results indicate cultural variation in perceptual differences underlying emotional suppression, but not cognitive reappraisal.
“I Don’t Really Know What the Magic Wand Is to Get Yourself in There”: Women’s Sense of Organizational Fit as Coach Developers

Building on the body of research that has addressed the experiences of female coaches, the present study examines women’s role as coach developers. English football served as the context for the research. Figures demonstrate women are underrepresented in this role more so than they are as coaches, and their distribution across the coach developer pathway is unevenly balanced, with most women qualified at Level I of the pathway. Using the concept of ‘organizational fit’, the research connects the experiences of the 10 coach developers interviewed, to the structural practices of their national and local governing bodies. These practices were symptomatic of the organizations’ culture that is created and upheld by masculine ideals. Work expectations and the environment were structured on the image of men as coaches and coach developers. Cultural barriers to women’s sense of organizational fit were specifically found to be: the incentive to progress (return on investment from higher coaching qualifications), the degree of organizational support and nurture, and the opportunity to progress and practice. Consequently, organizational expectations and values do not support the ambitions of women to climb the coach developer career ladder, and restrict their sense of choice and control. Future research should direct its attention towards a greater interrogation of aspects of sport organizational culture that may serve to ‘push’ female coaches away from its core, or alternatively, pull them closer to engage and make use of their expertise and abilities as coach developers.
INCLUSIÓN COMO CLAVE DE UNA EDUCACIÓN PARA TODOS: REVISIÓN TEÓRICA

ABSTRACT Beyond present models, academic and scientific studies; there is a new reality with that brings new values and behaviors that encourage the difference and the traditional way of understanding and studying the different, but it is also a social innovation that can encourage a truly inclusive society. This article aims to help all professionals and educators (competent authorities, parents, teachers, etc.) to expand the perception of what it means to educate and diversity in a society like today. Analyze the differences and similarities between integration, multiculturalism, inclusive education and diversity in education as keys in a multicultural society. Arise for recommendations of some international and European education authorities, and in particular the focus is in the case of Spain, as a country with extensive experience in diverse and multicultural student, undertaking a critical analysis of the performance in their classrooms in recent years and nowadays. The basic principles and specific methodological key to promote various educational contexts are discussed. Also some limitations and future research perspectives of interest are approached.
Growth as constraint

Human modelling is unique among the modelling of all the animals because it features both nonverbal and verbal communication (Sebeok 1988). Yet, in the development of this modelling, something must be lost with the movement to one mode from another, phylogenetically and ontogenetically. In the theory of natural selection, it is clear that what gets lost are the species, or species members, who do not adapt fit features to the evolving environmental imperatives. Biosemiotics, on the other hand, has been critical of the ruthless mechanism of the theory of natural selection. Contra neo-Darwinism, it posits ‘semiotic freedom. This semiotic freedom characterizes the scaffolding process in evolution, where the organism ‘builds’ on its relation to the environment. What happens on those occasions when one ‘choice’ is made by an organism over another or one set of scaffolding occurs rather than another? In the case of the phylogenetic development of communication it is clear that the ‘choice’ – exaptation – of linear speech for human communication was significant. By no means did it eclipse nonverbal communication; nor did it demote nonverbal communication to a subsidiary role in real terms; but it did ensure a bias towards the nonverbal and a disregard for it that effectively banished much nonverbal communication to a realm that is not conscious in the way that it was for our earlier hominid ancestors. A related fate can be seen with respect to ontogenetic repression of human nonverbality. In infancy, the child is almost solely reliant on nonverbal signs. Its Umwelt is attuned to verbal signs and such signs will certainly circulate there; but those same kinds of signs will not yet emanate from the child her/himself. Around 24 months, however, the child with an expected development rate will start to use speech and syntax in an elementary fashion, a development which is embedded in the remit of most public health systems that seek to treat impediments to infant development. With these observations in respect of human development in mind, this paper will consider the theoretical approaches in biosemiotics which suggest freedom of, repression within and constraints on (in Deacon’s sense) organismic action. The paper aims to stimulate discussion regarding which conceptions and terminology are most appropriate in this sphere.
Diversity of social ties and creativity: Creative self-efficacy as mediator and tie strength as moderator

How does diversity of social ties influence creativity? Moving beyond the information argument, we theorize creative self-efficacy as a motivational explanation for the relationship between diversity of social ties and creativity. We further posit tie strength as a boundary condition for this mechanism. We collected social ties data from 309 employees and creativity data from 98 direct supervisors. Results showed that diversity of social ties had a direct positive relationship with creative self-efficacy and an indirect positive relationship with employee creativity via creative self-efficacy. These direct and indirect relationships were fortified when tie strength was reinforced. We contribute to and advance theory development by identifying and testing creative self-efficacy as a motivational mechanism for diversity of social ties. We show the importance of diversity of social ties and tie strength and their synergistic role in the motivational process linking social ties to creativity.
Reforming TVET teachers' professional development in Greece: a needs-based policy

In view of 21st century pedagogical developments, school-to-work transitions and teacher professionalism, what should be the policy framework for the professional development of technical-vocational education and training (TVET) teachers? This was the purpose of this project, which was commissioned by Organization for the In-service Training of Teachers (OEPEK). TVET teachers and vocational education officers responded to a survey pertaining to continuing in-service training (CT): design philosophy, content, models and modes, teacher-trainer qualifications and selection, certification and validation. The findings were conceptualized into a CT policy framework proposal, which reflects a more flexible mode with emphasis on instructional effectiveness, use of teacher-trainers qualified in adult learning, accelerated school-based, introduction of labor market components in programs, and incentive-driven and competency-based CT certification.
Resources and Influences: Parents in Leadership Positions in Low-/Mid-SES and High-SES Schools in Israel

Purpose: This study focused on parents’ involvement in their children’s schools through participation in collective leadership roles. Based on Bourdieu’s approach the current analysis examined the link between parents’ types of resources, types of involvement in schools, and their influences over different school domains while comparing parents from two socioeconomic status (SES) levels (low/mid and high). Research Design: Participants comprised 624 parents from 21 randomly selected elementary schools, of which 10 were of low-/mid-SES and 11 high-SES schools. Data were collected by a questionnaire and analyzed based on multivariate analysis of variance and multi-group structural equation modeling approach. Findings: It was found that for holding leadership roles in schools, parents activate diverse education-related resources. Once gaining a formal leadership role parents may feel a legitimate right to influence schools, mainly on issues related to school management domains such as fundraising. Although, some differences occurred between high-SES and low-/mid-SES schools, there was a similarity regarding parents’ leadership roles that may benefit schools by bridging between the schools and their environment. Conclusions: As schools become more heterarchical, parent leadership may be able to play an increasingly significant role in facilitating the school principal’s work and fostering school improvement. Accordingly, school principals need to support and encourage parent leadership, particularly in low-SES schools. For that purpose, educators must be more attentive, accepting and value the resources of parents of low-SES schools.
SHIFTING THE GAZE OF AFRICAN AMERICAN INFANT FEEDING TO A PSYCHOLOGICAL, CULTURAL AND SOCIO-HISTORICAL LENS

Stephanie DeVane-Johnson: Shifting the Gaze of African American Infant Feeding to a Psychological, Cultural, and Socio-Historical Lens (Under the direction of Cheryl Woods Giscombé) Despite efforts to address the disproportionately low rates of breastfeeding among African American women, disparities continue to exist. There is a consensus that breastfeeding has widespread health benefits for infants, mothers, and society. But socio-historical factors unique to African Americans have been largely overlooked. These are events, experiences, and other phenomena that have been culturally, socially, and generationally passed down and integrated into families, potentially influencing breastfeeding beliefs and behaviors. The goals of this study are to describe cultural factors influencing African American mothers’ perceptions of infant-feeding decisions and to identify possible connections between these socio-historical factors and African American infant-feeding outcomes. I conducted six focus groups, three breastfeeding groups and three formula-feeding groups, in May 2015 through September 2015. The groups were constructed using a purposeful sampling of African American mothers stratified by age—18–29, 30–50, and 51+. I used MAXQDA computer software to conduct a qualitative thematic analysis on the findings. This study’s findings suggest that an examination of the socio-historical factors of breastfeeding disparities may illuminate key areas that can be targeted for the development of culturally sensitive interventions to improve African American breastfeeding outcomes.
From Partisan Media to Misperception: Affective Polarization as Mediator

This article provides evidence that affective polarization is an important mechanism linking conservative media use to political misperceptions. Partisan media’s potential to polarize is well documented, and there are numerous ways in which hostility toward political opponents might promote the endorsement of inaccurate beliefs. We test this mediated model using data collected via nationally representative surveys conducted during two recent U.S. presidential elections. Fixed effects regression models using three-wave panel data collected in 2012 provide evidence that conservative media exposure contributes to more polarized feelings toward major-party presidential candidates, and this growing favorability gap is associated with misperceptions critical of the Democrats. Further, these effects are more pronounced among Republicans than among Democrats. Cross-sectional analyses using data collected in 2016 provide additional evidence of the mediated relationship. The theoretical and real-world significance of these results are discussed.
Lived Experiences of Voluntary Pre-Service Foreign Language Teachers in an Inclusive Early Foreign Language Program

Previous studies provided evidence on the benefits of early foreign language education; however, U.S. schools typically do not offer foreign language classes until middle or high school. In addition , there are no teacher training programs specifically designed for early foreign language teaching, let alone for “inclusive early foreign language programs. ” Therefore, the purpose of this phenomenological study was to describe the classroom experiences of voluntary pre-service French teachers teaching French in an Early Foreign Language Exploratory (FLEX) Program at a charter school serving children from pre-kindergarten through grade five which practices full inclusion of children with special needs in one of the Southern states of the United States. Findings from the lived experiences of voluntary French teachers may shed light in establishing foreign language teacher training programs that offer inclusive education or in offering courses on methods in teaching foreign languages to students with special needs.
Linguistic Context in Verb Learning: Less is Sometimes More

ABSTRACT Linguistic contexts provide useful information about verb meanings by narrowing the space of candidate concepts. Intuitively, the more information, the better. For example, “the tall girl is fezzing,” as compared to “the girl is fezzing,” provides more information about which event, out of multiple candidate events, is being labeled; thus, we may expect it to better facilitate verb learning. However, we find evidence to the contrary: in a verb learning study, preschoolers (N = 60, mean age = 38 months) only performed above chance when the subject was an unmodified determiner phase, but not when it was modified (Experiment 1). Experiment 2 replicated this pattern with a different set of stimuli and a wider age range (N = 60, mean age = 45 months). Further, in Experiment 2, we looked at both learning outcomes—by evaluating pointing responses at Test, and also the learning process—by tracking eye gaze during Familiarization. The results suggest that children’s limited processing abilities are to blame for poor learning outcomes, but that a nuanced understanding of how processing affects learning is required.
Workplace Violence in Social Care Settings: Traumatic Stress and Burnout in Staff

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between frequency of exposure to physical violence/aggression and traumatic stress and burnout in social care workers (SCWs). One hundred SCWs were surveyed using non-experimental, cross-sectional, quantitative correlational study design with three questionnaires: Demographic Questionnaire, Revised Impact of Events Scale and Maslach Burnout Inventory. Responses were analysed using SPSS quantitative software and utilised descriptive statistics, and non-parametric correlational tests. Results indicated statistically significant positive relationships between the frequency of exposure to physical aggression/violence and traumatic stress and burnout measures. Results also indicated significant positive correlations between traumatic stress and burnout. Furthermore, exposure to workplace violence/aggression, traumatic stress, and burnout also positively correlated with SCWs desire to leave the profession in the next five years. Finally, results indicated a significant relationship between frequency of self-care and levels of traumatic stress and burnout subscales in SCWs. )
Frequency of β-Thalassemia or β-Hemoglobinopathy Carriers Simultaneously Affected with α-Thalassemia in Iran

Background: β-thalassemias are prevalent heritable single gene disorders affecting the quantity of the hemoglobin molecule. Rarely, a co-inheritance of these impairments with α-thalassemia and/or a hemoglobinopathy occurs and makes an important double heterozygote or homozygous state. Thus finding these cases is essential for genetic counseling. The present study aimed to identify the prevalence of coexistent α-thalassemia mutations, hemoglobinopathies, and β-thalassemia determinants. Methods: This descriptive study was performed on 5760 patients. We used complete blood cell count, Hb electrophoresis, and HbA2 measurement for thalassemia carrier identification. Increased HbA2 (≥ 3.5) is the standard diagnostic marker for β-thalassemia, while normal HbA2 with low MCH and MCV can indicate an α-thalassemia carrier or atypical β-thalassemia minor. Individuals with MCV T) (24). These thalassemia determinants account for about 46 of all detected mutations. As for α-gene mutations, -3.7 detection was the most prevalent. Conclusions: The relatively high prevalence of co-inherited α-thalassemia and hemoglobinopathies among β-thalassemia carriers indicates the importance of molecular analysis to diagnose these double heterozygous or sole homozygous cases for prenatal diagnostic purposes and putting forth strategies to prevent more complicated and dangerous combinations.

Using an Embedded Mixed Methods Design to Assess and Improve Intervention Acceptability of an Equity-Focused Intervention: A Methodological Demonstration

Educators have shown reluctance to implement interventions aimed at improving racial equity in school disciplinary practice. Mixed methods were applied to assess and improve the acceptability of a new intervention designed to reduce racial disparities in school discipline. A descriptive concurrent parallel design was used to assess U.S. educators’ perceptions of the acceptability of the intervention. Quantitative findings from professional development workshops introducing the intervention to 118 educators were corroborated with qualitative findings from a separate sample of 4 teachers who implemented it in their classrooms. Quantitative findings indicated that the intervention was acceptable to a broad range of potential implementers, and qualitative findings were used to modify the intervention to further improve its utility. The strengths, limitations, and implications of embedding mixed methods approaches to assess school-based interventions are also discussed.
Applied anatomy for transposition of two periosteal flaps pedicled with iliac crest and anterior inferior iliac branches of ascending rarus of lateral femoral circumflex vessel

Objective: To provide an effective and convenient microsurgical method to treat ischemic necrosis of femoral head in children (Perthes Disease). Methods: The distributions and courses of the two periosteal flaps pedicled with iliac crest and anterior inferior iliac branches of ascending rarus of lateral femoral circumflex vessel were observed on 32 adult cadavers which were perfused with red emulsion. The blood supplies of the two bone flaps on two fresh cadavers perfused with ink were observed and the operation for treatment of Perthes Disease was designed. Results: The length of anterior inferior iliac branches of lateral femoral circumflex vessel was 5.3±1.0 cm, the external diameter of the origin was 1.2±0.3 mm, and the distance to the origin of the ascending branch was 2.9±1.1 cm. The available area of periosteal flap was 2.0 cm×2.0 cm. These two periosteal flaps combed with could be transported to the area around the epiphysis of femoral head. Conclusion: The operative method is an effective and convenient method for the treatment of Perthes Disease.
