Machado de Assis, Guimarães Rosa e o espelho
Authors: Hilário Márcio Vinícius do Rosário
Published: December 2016

ais do que meros contadores de histórias ou estórias, os grandes escritores são capazes de criar universos ficcionais particulares, nos quais as mínimas partes se inter-relacionam dentro de um todo poético articulado. Nesse sentido, todos oselementos constituintes de um enredo combinamse organicamente de tal modo que, por meio de cada um é possível ver representado o discurso maior pretendido pelo autor, embora somente na complementaridade de um com o outro se possarealmente materializar a totalidade do tecido. Em outras palavras, quando um escritor elabora seu texto, ele está ao mesmo tempo criando um universo particular – porque tudo naquela tessitura se combina de forma muito específica – e geral – namedida em que existe um princípio regente o qual se manifestará em qualquer outro texto produzido por ele. Fosse diferente, bastaria ao escritor (e ao leitor) apenas um único objeto artístico, já que qualquer outro diria exatamente aquilo que um primeiro játeria revelado. Por extensão, do mesmo modo que um conto pode interagir com toda a ficção narrativa que compõe a obra de um artista, dentro dele todas as suas partes estão conectadas numa espécie de jogo metonímico. Partindo, então, da premissade que todo texto literário é merecedor de uma leitura singularizante, ainda que ele, obviamente, se insira no todo de um projeto estético, optamos por trabalhar em contos homônimos – “O espelho” – de Machado de Assis e de Guimarães Rosa – seusaspectos imagético-simbólicos, dando um destaque especial, sobretudo, para o objeto-tema escolhido por seus autores.Palavras-chave: Machado de Assis. Guimarães Rosa. Espelho. Símbolo. Intertextualidade.

Published: December 2016

Dotazník zvládání zátěže (DZZ) je sebeposuzovací inventář vyvíjený společností T&CC online s.r.o. Cílem práce bylo ověřit vybrané psychometrické charakteristiky revidované verze inventáře. Byla provedena položková analýza a za pomocí Cronbachova alfa a koeficientu Omega byla odhadnuta reliabilita metody. Výsledky naznačují, že inventář má potenciál stát se kvalitní metodou pro měření využívání různých copingových strategií, ale vzhledem k nízké reliabilitě některých jeho škál je třeba jej ještě upravit. Dalším krokem je nahrazení nevyhovujících položek a nový pilotní průzkum.Stress Management Questionnaire is a self-rating inventory developed by the T&CC online company. The aim of the study was to evaluate selected psychometric characteristics of the revised edition of the inventory. An item analysis was conducted along with a reliability analysis using Cronbach’s alpha and Omega coefficient of reliability. The results suggest that the inventory has a potential to become a fine method for measurement of various coping strategies people employ. Yet there is a need for further development of the method due to the low reliability of some of its scales. The next steps will primarily involve replacing unsatisfactory items and conducting a new pilot study.
Sebeposuzovací škála depresivity pro děti: Recenze metody
Authors: Cvrčková Aneta
Published: December 2016

Sebeposuzovací škála depresivity pro děti je jednoduchým nástrojem na administraci, bohužel ale nedosahuje psychometrických kvalit v originální i české verzi. Pro českou verzi nejsou k dispozici důkazy o dosažení psychometrických kvalit a je možné ji použít pouze pro výzkumné účely s cílem rozvoje metody a rozhodně nikoli jako nástroj pro diagnostikování deprese. Bylo by vhodné se zaměřit na adaptaci revidované verze CDI – 2.

A proposta deste estudo foi verificar a associação entre o risco de quedas de 127 idosos da comunidade e o nível de atividade física. O risco de quedas foi avaliado através dos instrumentos Fall Risk Score de Downton, teste Timed Up and Go (TUG) e o Teste de Alcance Funcional (TAF) e o nível de atividade física utilizando o Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física (IPAQ) versão curta. A maioria dos idosos entrevistados (88,7%) foram classificados como ativos ou muito ativos e sem risco de quedas (TUG 89,8%, TAF 97,6%, Downton 64,5%). A relação entre o nível de atividade física e risco de quedas através dos testes TUG e Downton mostrou-se significativa, estando os idosos mais ativos com menor risco de quedas e todos os instrumentos que avaliaram este risco apresentaram associação significativa entre si demonstrando que a atividade física pode reduzir o risco de quedas, minimizando perdas funcionais do envelhecimento.Descritores: Envelhecimento; Fatores de Risco; Acidentes por Quedas; Estilo de Vida.
PRESENÇA DE ANALITOS QUÍMICOS E MICROSCÓPICOS NA URINA E SUA RELAÇÃO COM INFECÇÃO URINÁRIA
Authors: Bortolotto Lenir Alves , Indras Denise Michelle , Silva Claudinei Mesquita da , Peder Leyde Daiane de
Published: December 2016

Microrganismos podem atingir o trato urinário pela via ascendente ou sangue levando a graves infecções e custos para o sistema público de saúde, sendo assim é imprescindível um diagnóstico rápido para o tratamento adequado e diminuição de gastos. A urocultura é padrão ouro neste processo pela sua precisão, porém, é lento e de custo elevado, sendo necessários testes adicionais com tiras reativas e microscópicos durante a urinálise, os quais são  mais rápidos e de custo mais baixo e que sugerem casos negativos ou  presença de bactérias.  O presente trabalho teve como objetivo correlacionar presença de analitos químicos e microscópicos com infecção urinária, tendo como base a urocultura, a partir da análise de 1576 laudos de pacientes que realizaram exame de urina em um laboratório particular de Cascavel-PR entre 2012 e 2015. Foram calculados os parâmetros de validação para nitrito positivo e aumento de leucócitos tendo como base urocultura positiva, nos quais foi verificada sensibilidade de 32,4% e 83,6%, especificidade e VPP de 100% para ambos, VPN de 88,7% e 97,0% e eficiência de 89,3% e 97,3%, respectivamente. Assim, todos os parâmetros demonstraram que o diagnóstico mais adequado para infecções urinárias é a determinação do aumento do número de leucócitos e não o teste de nitrito.Descritores: Urocultura; Urinálise; Infecção do Trato Urinário; Bactérias.

Published: December 2016

Resumen: Edición crítica y estudio histórico, formal y lingüístico del discurso con el que Juan II de Aragón abrió, el 13 de noviembre de 1469, las cortes generales de Monzón. En plena guerra civil catalana, los rebeldes habían ofrecido la corona a Renato de Anjou, y la llegada desde Francia de su hijo, el duque de Lorena, con un poderoso ejército obligaba a pedir subsidios para afrontar la grave situación. En este parlamento, una de las escasas muestras de aragonés tardío conservadas, el monarca hizo un relato autobiográfico de su reinado de innegable sesgo maniqueo. Palabras clave: Juan II de Aragón, oratoria parlamentaria, Corona de Aragón, cortes generales, siglo XV, guerra civil catalana, lengua aragonesa Abstract: This article contains the critical edition and study (history, form and language) of John II of Aragon’s opening speech, which took place at the general court in Monzón on 13th November 1469. At the height of Catalan Civil War, the rebels had offered the crown to Renato of Anjou. However, his son’s arrival, the duke of Lorena, from France with a powerful army forced the king to ask for benefits in order to face up to the grave situation. In this discourse, one of the few remaining samples of the late Aragonese language, the king produced an autobiographical account of his reign with an undeniable manichaen guidance.   Keywords: Juan II of Aragon, parlamentari oratory, Crown of Aragon, General Courts, !5th. century, Catalan Civil War, aragonese language
Censura y edición póstuma de la obra de Hipólita de Rocabertí: a propósito de unos poemas manipulados
Authors: Zaragoza Gómez Verònica
Published: December 2016

Resumen: El objeto de este trabajo es ahondar en algunos fenómenos del proceso de publicación de la obra de la dominica catalana Hipólita de Rocabertí (Peralada, 1553-Barcelona, 1624), desde un acercamiento filológico inédito, a través del análisis y la edición de tres de sus poemas, que fueron impresos en el Tratado dividido en quatro libros. El primero contiene: la exposición literal y mística de los psalmos penitenciales; el segundo, la preparación para la muerte; el tercero, coloquios del alma christiana con Dios; el quarto, fundamento sólido de la oración por ser todo fundado en el santo Evangelio (Valencia, Jaime de Bordázar, 1683), y que presentan una transmisión textual peculiar, puesto que algunos de ellos fueron modificados en distintas emisiones del testimonio. A través del cotejo y la colación de las variantes de los diferentes testimonios de estas composiciones que editamos, pretendemos aportar nuevos materiales interpretativos que permitan dilucidar mejor el proceso de construcción de la imagen de santidad de la autora operado en el siglo XVII, a través de la edición póstuma de sus obras, en el nuevo marco de la reforma católica post-tridentina.   Palabras clave: Hipólita de Rocabertí; poesía conventual; literatura femenina de la edad moderna; santidad femenina; edición y crítica textual Abstract: The goal of this paper is to examine certain aspects of the publishing process of the work of the Catalan Dominican nun Hipólita de Rocabertí from an original philological perspective through the edition and analysis of three of her poems, which were published in the Tratado dividido en quatro libros. El primero contiene: la exposición literal y mística de los psalmos penitenciales; el segundo, la preparación para la muerte; el tercero, coloquios del alma christiana con Dios; el quarto, fundamento sólido de la oración por ser todo fundado en el santo Evangelio (Valencia, Jaime de Bordázar, 1683) and which present a complex textual transmission, given that some of them were modified in various editions. By comparing the different testimonies of the compositions that we edit, we intend to provide new interpretative materials, which might contribute to a better understanding of the building process of the image of the author’s holiness in the XVII century, in the new framework of the post-tridentine catholic reform.   Keywords: Hipólita de Rocabertí; conventual poetry; women’s literature in the modern age; female holiness; textual criticism and edition

A Method for Automatic Image Rectification and Stitching for Vehicle Yaw Marks Trajectory Estimation
Authors: Žuraulis Vidas , Matuzevičius Dalius , Serackis Artūras
Published: December 2016

The aim of this study has been to propose a new method for automatic rectification and stitching of the images taken on the accident site. The proposed method does not require any measurements to be performed on the accident site and thus it is frsjebalaee of measurement errors. The experimental investigation was performed in order to compare the vehicle trajectory estimation according to the yaw marks in the stitched image and the trajectory, reconstructed using the GPS data. The overall mean error of the trajectory reconstruction, produced by the method proposed in this paper was 0.086 m. It was only 0.18% comparing to the whole trajectory length.
Micro-simulation of Desired Speed for Temporary Work Zone with a New Calibration Method
Authors: Zhang Chi , Liu Shiyu , Ogle Jennifer , Zhang Min
Published: December 2016

Nowadays, the studies of parameter calibration for long-term work zones are limited to driver behaviour and car-following parameters, and no research was found related to calibration of the desired speed distributions during temporary work zones. Obtaining realistic results from simulations of temporary work zones is difficult. Thus, it would be valuable for gaining more valid simulation data if a method of calibrating the desired speed distribution could be applied for traffic simulation model of highway temporary work zones. The calibration method was proposed in five steps: (1) collect and analyse data, (2) plot the travel speed cumulative frequency curves and calibrate the desired speed distribution, (3) conduct simulation runs, (4) validate the simulation results, and (5) propose a new calibration method, which was assessed by T-tests, and the results are very promising. Finally, a simplified calibration method called “Five-Point Method” is presented and the recommended values of five-point are given.
Fine-tuning of Notch signaling sets the boundary of the organ of Corti and establishes sensory cell fates

The signals that induce the organ of Corti and define its boundaries in the cochlea are poorly understood. We show that two Notch modifiers, Lfng and Mfng, are transiently expressed precisely at the neural boundary of the organ of Corti. Cre-Lox fate mapping shows this region gives rise to inner hair cells and their associated inner phalangeal cells. Mutation of Lfng and Mfng disrupts this boundary, producing unexpected duplications of inner hair cells and inner phalangeal cells. This phenotype is mimicked by other mouse mutants or pharmacological treatments that lower but not abolish Notch signaling. However, strong disruption of Notch signaling causes a very different result, generating many ectopic hair cells at the expense of inner phalangeal cells. Our results show that Notch signaling is finely calibrated in the cochlea to produce precisely tuned levels of signaling that first set the boundary of the organ of Corti and later regulate hair cell development.
Enhanced efficiency of ultrathin (∼500 nm)-film microcrystalline silicon photonic crystal solar cells
Authors: De Zoysa Menaka , Ishizaki Kenji , Tanaka Yoshinori , Sai Hitoshi , Matsubara Koji , Noda Susumu
Published: December 2016

Enhancing the absorption of thin-film microcrystalline silicon solar cells at 600–1000 nm wavelengths is very important to the improvement of the energy conversion efficiency. This can be achieved by creating a large number of resonant modes utilizing two-dimensional photonic crystal band edges, which exceeds the Lambertian limit of absorption in random textures. We focus on suppressing the parasitic absorption of back-reflector metal and doped layers in photonic crystal microcrystalline silicon solar cells. We achieve a high active-area current density of 22.6 mA cm−2 for an ultrathin (∼500 nm)-film silicon layer and obtain an active-area efficiency of ∼9.1%, as independently confirmed by the CSMT of AIST.
Coping with Perceived Chances and Risks Associated with Social Change
Authors: Silbereisen Rainer K.
Published: December 2016

Social change in the form of political transformation in the context of globalization and individualization is prevalent worldwide. Such change can occur gradually or abruptly and not always as part of people's conscious experience. In such situations, features of the broader ecological contexts in which people live moderate the process of coping. Successfully coping affects well‐being and other psychosocial outcomes and in most, but not all instances, requires active engagement, development of a sense of control and capitalizing on proximate social and personal resources. Future research should emphasize cross‐national study of objective and subjective outcomes, and the relationships between demands (broadly defined), varieties of mechanisms for coping, and the full range of personal and social resources available for doing so. The aim of such research must be to inform social policies designed to empower people's sense of personal agency and aligned with relevant changes in opportunity structures.
Social Network Analysis in the Study of Ethnic Inequalities
Authors: Kalter Frank
Published: December 2016

Standard large‐scale survey designs and methods enabled integration research to progress far in recent decades, emphasizing especially the structural aspects of ethnic minorities' integration. To further increase our understanding, the role social aspects play in the complex process of integration merits more attention. Within this endeavor, network analytical designs and techniques provide a particularly promising complement to the standard empirical research agenda. Network analysis provides adequate measures for diverse subaspects of social integration and allows to tackle key open questions and issues, such as disentangling mechanisms of choice from those of opportunity structure or of selection from influence. The use of network analytical tools in integration research corresponds to the more general program of analytical sociology calling for a stronger weight of contexts and social interactions within the next generation of empirical research. While standard survey designs and data sets study integration processes pretty much as if actors behaved in isolation, integration is actually a heavily interactive and highly complex dynamic process.
The Role of Social Mechanisms in the Formation of Social Inequalities
Authors: Diewald Martin
Published: December 2016

Despite lacking a commonly shared definition, social mechanisms have recently received considerable attention in sociology. Social inequality research has been a trailblazer in providing examples of how social mechanism can further, theoretically and methodologically, progress. Two different understandings of social mechanisms are reflected in the literature. One refers to theoretical and methodological precision when describing the causal chains that lead from specific antecedents to specific outcomes. The other is a program designed to articulate a complete taxonomy of a limited number of mechanisms as abstract ideas to explain social inequalities. I discuss both approaches how they can fruitfully refer to each other. In the final section, I discuss social mechanisms in the view of a new challenge to social inequality research, that is, a growing interdisciplinary interest in gene–environment interference. By superseding the old and fruitless nature‐versus‐nurture debate, new fields of social inquiry emerge, but pose also the question what it can add to a better understanding of inequality‐generating social mechanisms. As I will show, the inclusion of genetic information in social science explanations does not threaten sociology as a discipline, but will potentially enrich both the currently proposed mechanistic approaches in social inequality research.
Teacher Judgments and their Role in the Educational Process
Authors: Artelt Cordula
Published: December 2016

Teacher judgments matter for students: They have an impact not only on students' academic self‐concepts and for their theories about themselves as learners but also on educational pathways through grades and school leaving certificates. However, do teachers have the expertise for such judgments? Is there such a thing as a professional ability to judge (diagnostic competence)? The essay provides an overview on research related to teacher judgment accuracy and bias and specifies conditions under which accurate teacher judgments can (and cannot) be expected. It is argued that in research as well as in teacher training, causes of judgment and judgment demands need to be taken into account and that the role of knowledge components in controlled and automatic decision‐making after intensive experience on the job needs to be better understood.
Emerging Trends: Family Formation and Gender
Authors: Matysiak Anna , Nitsche Natalie
Published: December 2016

Family formation is a well‐studied topic in demography and the social sciences. Yet, open questions to be addressed by future research remain. Focusing on the childbearing side of family formation, we discuss how a gendered lens, which led researchers to concentrate on women's experiences, has shaped previous studies. We argue that future research can be advanced by (i) going beyond this perspective and addressing men and their experiences pertaining to work and family and by (ii) broadening research on couples in order to understand how his and her resources, values, and experiences interact in relating to family formation. Furthermore, we discuss (iii) the relevance of incorporating a larger array of macrolevel factors into studies on family formation, such as regulations affecting the practical and daily lives of families, or the cultural context of emotions and (iv) which methodological advances are needed to address the complexity of the studied processes.
Language Proficiency and the Integration of Immigrant Students in the Education System
Authors: Stanat Petra , Edele Aileen
Published: December 2016

The integration of immigrant students in the education system is an important concern in most countries around the world. Several lines of research on this issue focus on the role of language, often distinguishing between students' family language, typically referred to asfirst language(L1), and the school language, typically referred to assecond language(L2). Past research has clearly shown that immigrant students' level of proficiency in L2 affects their school success, yet the role of L1 proficiency is less clear. In addition, the question whether bilingual or monolingual instruction is more effective in supporting immigrant students is largely unresolved. Current investigations aim at overcoming limitations of prior research by employing longitudinal designs, by controlling relevant third variables, and by conducting randomized field trials. Promising avenues for future research include developing more clear‐cut conceptual and operational definitions of core constructs, analyzing potentially important moderators of effects, determining the role quality of language input and instruction play for proficiency development and school success, and analyzing the associations between proficiency development in L1 and L2 with various aspects of integration.
Social Inequality Across the Life Course: Societal Unfolding and Individual Agency
Authors: Heckhausen Jutta
Published: December 2016

Social inequality is rising around the globe with devastating consequences for individuals and societies. Modern societies allow social mobility but vary greatly in the extent and means by which it is hampered or facilitated at different points in the life course. Motivational and lifespan developmental psychology view individuals as agents of their development, and specify sequential models and strategies for adaptive developmental agency. Individual differences in planful goal selection, optimism, action‐orientation, and goal disengagement capacities are critical for adaptive developmental agency, especially under conditions of major age‐graded changes in opportunities, unexpected losses, or increasing uncertainty and destabilization of life courses.
The Rise of Experimentation in Political Science
Authors: Rogowski Ronald
Published: December 2016

Experimental research has expanded markedly in political science over the past 30 years: the number of experimental articles in theAmerican Political Science Reviewhas almost quintupled since the mid‐1980s. The main reason is intellectual: most scholars by now agree that random assignment of cases to “treatment” provides the most (perhaps the only) convincing evidence of causation. The second reason is technical advances that permit kinds of experimentation that, before about 2000, hardly existed: field, natural, and survey experiments. These have grown, while laboratory experiments have receded. While concerns remain about the external validity of these experiments, both journals and funding agencies will likely move increasingly in this direction.
Enabling Improvements: Combining Intervention and Implementation Research
Authors: Schober Barbara , Spiel Christiane
Published: December 2016

Transferring evidence‐based intervention programs effectively into practice and into the wider field of public policy often fails, even if the logic of evidence‐based approaches has become highly important in recent years. As a consequence, the field of implementation research has emerged, implementation frameworks have been developed, and implementation studies have been conducted. However, even if intervention research and implementation research have both achieved mentionable progress in the past, they are rather unrelated, and different traditions and research groups are involved. This might be one of the key reasons why there are still many problems in transferring evidence‐based programs into widespread community. In order to enable improvement in this field, in this essay, we argue for a systematic integration of intervention and implementation research as a promising emerging approach. Therefore, we recommend a six‐step procedure requiring researchers to design and develop intervention programs using a field‐oriented and participative approach from the beginning on. In particular, the perspective of policymakers has to be included as well as the wider context of values, rewarding systems, and basic attitudes in science.
The Intergenerational Transmission of Fertility
Authors: Bernardi Laura
Published: December 2016

The intergenerational transmission of fertility has direct consequences on population dynamics and is indirectly related to the reproduction of social inequality. Early studies focused on the positive correlation of parents and children fertility outcomes such as family size or childbearing timing. Explanations for the observed correlations have spanned from genetic and social status inheritance mechanisms to role modeling and socialization processes based on social learning and social influence. More recently, the focus has shifted from fertility outcomes to similarities and dissimilarities of family formation patterns across generations, framing fertility in the context of interrelated life course trajectories. Recent cutting‐edge research has also expanded upon the existing literature by focusing on the role played by multigenerational relationships and by bidirectional influence processes in parents‐children fertility behaviors. Challenges for future research are provided by the need to disentangle the interplay between genes and culture in defining tastes and preferences for given values and norms related to fertility and the increasing family complexity and migration that interfere with socialization processes.

Advertising Effectiveness and Attitude Change Vary as a Function of Working Memory Capacity
Authors: Sanchez Christopher A. , Alley Zoe M.
Published: December 2016

Prior research has confirmed that the amount of attention paid to an advertisement will influence its effectiveness when it comes to changing consumer attitudes. This study expands on this understanding by exploring how individual differences in the ability to control attention (i.e., working memory capacity; WMC) might further moderate the effect of attention on advertising. Participants who varied in WMC were evaluated on their attitudes towards a consumer brand before and after viewing a video advertisement. While the advertisement did make participants more positive towards the product overall, this change in attitude was directly related to participants' ability to control attention and the degree to which the ad fostered the activation of autobiographical memories. Further, these changes in attitude were unrelated to how well the ad was remembered. This suggests that individual differences in attentional control can influence how advertisements impact customer attitude and the acceptance of persuasive messaging.

Emotional Valence and Perceived Event Frequency Affect Memory Accuracy for a Personally Relevant Life Event
Authors: Nascimento Juliana Maria Steffen do , Buratto Luciano Grüdtner , Schaefer Alexandre , Stein Lilian Milnitsky
Published: December 2016

False autobiographical remembering is known to be affected both by an event's emotional valence and its perceived frequency (PEF). Here, we present a procedure that enables the assessment of retrieval accuracy for details of an overarching personally relevant real‐life event (a graduation ceremony) while taking into account variations in both their valence and PEF. Former university students who attended the same graduation ceremony completed a questionnaire with true and false statements about the ceremony. Their task was to judge whether the event details were true. Event details were previously rated for valence (positive vs. negative) and PEF (high vs. low) and their truth status was confirmed with original video footage from the ceremony. The results showed that valence modulated the effect of PEF on memory accuracy in that a decrease in false memory judgements was observed only for negative low‐PEF (implausible) event details. These results are interpreted within the affect‐as‐information framework. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
