Implicitness and experimental methods in language variation research
Authors: Rosseel Laura , Grondelaers Stefan 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
This special issue brings together research that reflects on the status and role of different types of language attitudes, and the methods required to study them. Many linguists distinguish between explicit and implicit attitudes towards language, but more often than not it remains unclear how these constructs are defined, and what their potential significance is for the study of language variation and change. The contributions to this issue address this question by critically reflecting on theory and methodology, by highlighting (and clarifying) the terminological confusion, and by showcasing new methods and tools. It is hoped that this special issue can inspire theoretical and methodological convergence in a notoriously fragmented field, so that attitude researchers can identify the underlying structure of language attitudes, and the theoretical significance of language evaluation to processes of language variation and change.
The relationship between implicit and explicit attitudes to British accents in enhancing the persuasiveness of children’s oral health campaigns
Authors: Adams Zoe 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
This paper seeks to improve the persuasiveness of oral health campaigns by investigating the relationship between implicit and explicit attitudes to British accents. Forty-seven participants from Tayside, East Scotland, first completed an implicit task which asked participants to judge the truth value of 120 trivia statements, divided into six different accents, as quickly as possible. This was complimented by an identical written task at the end of the experiment in less pressurised conditions. Both audio and written responses to the statements were analysed using signal detection theory, which revealed that Estuary English was more persuasive than the local accent, Dundee English (p = 0.039), and the stigmatised multi-ethnolect, Multicultural London English (p = 0.002). Participants also completed an explicit task involving two matched-guise tests with the same six accents in a neutral and dental context. Results update our knowledge of explicit attitudes to British accents in a modern linguistic landscape, and shed light on correlations between implicit and explicit attitudes. Using Bassili and Brown’s (2005) Potentiated Recruitment Framework, it is argued that the relationship is mediated by participants’ self-presentation concerns and the perceived social penalties of expressing bias. Sociolinguistic implications of implicit measurement procedures are discussed regarding the development of oral health campaigns.
The relational responding task (RRT): a novel approach to measuring social meaning of language variation
Authors: Rosseel Laura , Speelman Dirk , Geeraerts Dirk 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
Recently, sociolinguistic attitude research has adopted a number of new implicit attitude measures developed in social psychology. Especially the Implicit Association Test (IAT) has proven a successful new addition to the sociolinguist’s toolbox. Despite its relative success, the IAT has a number of limitations, such as the fact that it measures the association between two concepts (e.g. ‘I’ and ‘skinny’) without controlling for the relationship between those two concepts (e.g. ‘I am skinny’ vs. ‘I want to be skinny’). The Relational Responding Task (RRT), a novel implicit attitude measure recently developed by social psychologists, makes up for exactly that limitation by presenting participants with full propositions expressing beliefs rather than loose concepts. In this paper, we present a study that explores the RRT as a novel implicit measure of language attitudes. We employ the method to investigate the social meaning of two varieties of Dutch: Standard Belgian Dutch and colloquial Belgian Dutch. In total 391 native speakers of Belgian Dutch took part in the study. A training effect in the data aside, our results show that the latter variety is associated with dynamism, while the former is perceived as prestigious.
An initial record of a long-distance dispersal route of a male sika deer in central Japan

Published: April 2019

Abstract
We conducted a global positioning system (GPS) tracking of a male sika deer (Cervus nippon) and his mother in the eastern foothills of the northern Japanese Alps, central Japan. Sika deer exhibited similar seasonal movement patterns; however, the male deer left his natal group at 11 months of age. At 15 months of age, the male deer settled in the neighboring mountain, which was 74 km away from his natal range. This is the first record of long-distance (>50 km) natal dispersal of the sika deer. Our findings might help to explain the expanding distribution of the sika deer.

Published: April 2019

AbstractAlmond husk liquefaction can be envisaged as an alternative to fossil sources which are becoming exhausted. Lately, the polyols obtain from the lignocellulosic biomass have been under investigation for the production of sustainable chemicals, fuel, materials or other commodities. Within this context, acid-catalyzed liquefaction of such lignocellulosic biomass has been successfully used to access highly functionalized compounds that can be used to replace those produced from petroleum. Almond shells waste can be considered to be part of the lignocellulosic biomass. Its main constituents of are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. In this assay, the biochemical composition of almond husk was estimated based on atomic mass balances, and at the same time, the pyrolysis outcome was also estimated using a kinetic model using some reference compounds. In order to evaluate the use of almond waste as a substrate for acid-catalyzed liquefaction, the most favorable conditions of the liquefaction process were investigated. To better understand the liquefaction process, response surface methodology, in particular, central composite face-centered factorial design was used to set an array of 17 experiments including three replications at the center point leading to the development of a reaction model for further prediction and optimization of the liquefaction outcome. The effect of temperature (120–150 °C), time (20–200 min) and catalyst amount (0.5–5 wt. %) was investigated and a predictive model established.
The Posthumanist Technological Sublime as Cultural Technique: Poe’s “The Man That Was Used Up”
Authors: Sommerfeld Stephanie 
Published: April 2019

AbstractThis essay argues for exploring sublimity as a cultural technique which is central to processing modern practices of purification and hybridization alike, and which also self-reflexively illuminates the operations and actors of its surrounding human-nonhuman network. The dissection and literal assemblage of a romantic cyborg in “The Man That Was Used Up” serves as an example of how Poe’s self-referential employment of a posthumanist technological sublime counteracts anthropocentric notions of Romantic sublimity which reduce Nature to a means of human arousal and self-elevation.
Undrained Interface Shear Strength of Fine-Grained Soils for Near-Shore Marine Pipelines
Authors: Eid Hisham T. 
Published: April 2019

Abstract
The peak and residual interface shear strengths for a variety of normally consolidated soils were measured using a torsional ring shear apparatus modified to suit soil and interface testing under the undrained condition, which is usually prevalent at soil–marine pipeline interfaces. Five solid surfaces with different roughnesses were utilized in this single-stage shear testing program. Tests were conducted at normal stresses in the intermediate range that are mobilized on soil–pipeline interfaces under near-shore conditions. For comparison, drained peak and residual shear strengths of a representative interface were also measured using a different version of the torsional ring shear apparatus. Based on the analyses and interpretations of the test results, a simple equation is introduced to estimate the undrained peak and residual interface efficiencies as a function of the solid surface roughness. The analyses also revealed that the normalized undrained peak and residual shear strengths of the soils and interfaces are insensitive to the change in soil plasticity. The ratios between these undrained strengths and the corresponding drained strengths decrease with decreasing soil plasticity and increasing interface roughness. Recommendations for the initial assessment of the pipe-soil shearing resistance and the preliminary stability analyses of near-shore marine pipelines are suggested based on the findings of this study.
Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Patients’ Experiences With Treatment Decision-making
Authors: Mack Jennifer W. , Fasciano Karen M. , Block Susan D. 
Published: April 2019

BACKGROUND:
Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer generally want to engage in decision-making but are not always able to do so. We evaluated cancer treatment decision-making among AYAs, including decisional engagement and regret.

METHODS:
We surveyed 203 AYA patients with cancer aged 15 to 29 (response rate 74%) treated at a large academic center and their oncologists. Patients were approached within 6 weeks of diagnosis and asked to report decision-making preferences and experiences (Decisional Roles Scale) and the extent to which they regretted their initial treatment decision (Decisional Regret Scale) assessed at baseline and 4 and 12 months later.

RESULTS:
A majority of AYAs (58%) wanted to share responsibility for decision-making with oncologists; half (51%) preferred limited involvement from parents. Although most AYAs held roles they preferred, those who did not reported holding more passive roles relative to oncologists (P &lt; .0001) and parents (P = .002) than they desired. Nearly one-quarter of patients (24%; 47 of 195) experienced regret about initial cancer treatment decisions at baseline, with similar rates at 4 (23%) and 12 (19%) months. In a multivariable model adjusted for age, decisional roles were not associated with regret; instead, regret was less likely among patients who trusted oncologists completely (odds ratio 0.17 [95% confidence interval 0.06–0.46]; P &lt; .001) and who reported that oncologists understood what was important to them when treatment started (odds ratio 0.13 [95% confidence interval 0.04–0.42]; P &lt; .001).

CONCLUSIONS:
Nearly one-fourth of AYA patients expressed regret about initial treatment decisions. Although some AYAs have unmet needs for decisional engagement, attributes of the patient-oncologist relationship, including trust and mutual understanding, may be most protective against regret.

Aim. To evaluate patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in combination with atrial fibrillation (AF) according to the total register of ACS in the Krasnodar region of echocardiographic (EchoCG) parameters (left atrial dimension (LAD), left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT), left ventricle end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), as well as coronary substrate assessment according to coronary angiography (CAG) and determination of the relationship between the value of LVEF and the coronary substrate.Material and methods. From the register of the ACS in the Krasnodar region, patients were successively taken to the cardiology departments of Krasnodar regional clinical hospital № 1 for the period from November 20, 2015 to November 20, 2017 with a diagnosis of ACS, accompanied by one of the types of atrial fibrillation. This group of patients was designated as a group of ACS + AF and amounted to 119 patients. The comparison group was selected with the help of a random number generator from patients admitted to the hospital with ACS and intact sinus rhythm (SR) for the period of time from November 20, 2015 to November 20, 2017 (120). We analyzed the ECHO-CG parameters, the coronary substrate — according to the CAG.Results. When comparing the cohort of patients with ACS + AF with the cohort of patients with ACS + SR, we determined a significant (p<0,05) difference of LA size, LVEF and values of PASP. During comparing the presence of hemodynamically significant stenosis in the coronary arteries we noticed that in ACS + AF patients with LVEF <40% in significantly higher percentage of cases (p=0,0007) occurs significant hemodynamic stenosis of coronary arteries, in contrast to the group of patients with ACS + SR with LVEF <40%. In patients with EF >40% and ACS + SR we determined a significantly more frequent (p<0,001) stenosis.Conclusion. The results of the analysis are important for understanding the distinguishing characteristics of patients with ACS that occur on the background of AF, which is important for correct prediction of the course of the disease. The maintenance of the ACS register will provide information on the real clinical course of the disease, as well as improve the effectiveness of treatment in real clinical practice.
¿Cirugía estética o amputación?

Published: April 2019

Propósito: presentar una aproximación histórica, médica y normativa, dentro del contexto colombiano, en torno a la valoración de algunos procedi­mientos quirúrgicos calificados como estéticos. El objetivo es promover la reflexión sobre su conveniencia y aplicabilidad desde el ámbito de la ciencia, teniendo en cuenta los más recientes acontecimientos en relación con la prohibición de estas prácticas.
Descripción: se realizó un análisis de revisión y reflexión sobre esta práctica, frente a los cuestionamientos recientes, frente a elementos puntuales de las técnicas y elmedio cultural en el cual se aplican. Entorno que a su vez está influyendo en la regulación desde el ámbito técnico y científico, en el cual debe predominar la salud y el bienestar animal de los pacientes.
Punto de vista: dentro de la ciencia médica —campo que a su vez es un arte— la cirugía tiene entre sus ramas de especialización a la cirugía plástica, que se subdivide en cirugía cosmética y estética. Se muestra y se discute que el corte de orejas y colas desde la estética no encuentra una justificación técnica científica, a no ser que medie una patología o padecimientoque recomiende su aplicación. Cortar las orejas y las colas puede traer consecuencias irreversibles en los mecanismos de comunicación y expresión de las mascotas.
Conclusiones: antes de realizar cualquier tipo de cirugía estética se debe considerar el bienestar animal y los pros o contras de estos procedimientos.

Authors: Mojica-Figueroa Luis Antonio 
Published: April 2019

Introducción: a partir del problema de investigación, en primer lugar, y para una mejor comprensión sobre lo que es medida cautelar innominada, se hace un estudio doctrinario que permite explicar la regulación y evolución dentro del sistema normativo colombiano, así como sus requisitos. Metodología: a partir de un análisis estadístico sobre procesos disciplinarios contra abogados, en contraste con la cantidad de egresados en Derecho y afies, se pretende evidenciar la crisis en que está la moral de los abogados en Colombia. Resultados:se advierte cómo dicha crisis moral podría llegar a debilitar la conciliación extrajudicial en cuanto requisito de procedibilidad dentro del proceso civil. En este artículo se estudian conceptos básicos como lo son la solicitud, el decreto y la práctica de una medida cautelar. De igual manera, se explica la evidente diferencia entre cada una de dichas etapas procesales, ya que, a partir de esto, se comprende fácilmente la difiultad procesal existente. Conclusiones: de igual manera, a partir de los hallazgos evidenciados, se propone una reforma al parágrafo primero del Artículo 590 de la Ley 1564 de 2012, el cual permita contrarrestar cualquier uso inadecuado de medidas cautelares innominadas a la hora de cumplir con la conciliación extrajudicialcomo requisito de procedibilidad.
Special issue on alternative reality and analytics for learning:
Authors: González Crespo Rubén , Burgos Daniel 
Published: April 2019

One of the main challenges in modern education is to blend formal official learning with a huge variety of content provision, group discussion, self-entrepreneurship, user’s own portfolio, and long lists of possibilities off-the-classroom. Informal learning happens anytime, anywhere. We strongly believe that formal learning does too. The cornerstone is to find the right balance between both contexts. The effective integration of Open Educational Resources with formal lessons, or between traditional lectures and live multi-user conferences, or even more, between spontaneous forum contributions outside the learning management system, and the official activities towards certification, will make the difference: the actual change of an educational paradigm. And this could be so for every single shareholder of the educational community, from teachers to tutors, from support staff to managers, from content providers to learning designers and, of course, from students to graduates.

Published: April 2019

<p>El periodo de entreguerras constituye una época destacada en los movimientos poblacionales entre Polonia y Argentina. Se calcula que en dos décadas emigraron a este país latinoamericano aproximadamente 160 mil ciudadanos polacos. La época de entreguerras y particularmente los primeros años de la década de los treinta constituyen también un periodo de gran vulnerabilidad y muy alta desocupación observada entre los inmigrantes polacos, fenómeno especialmente visible en el contexto porteño. Centrándonos en este caso particular, el presente artículo pretende analizar qué consecuencias tuvo el periodo de la crisis económica sobre este grupo, así como la imagen del inmigrante polaco que se fue construyendo en la capital argentina en el periodo señalado.</p>

Międzykulturowość a sport: mediatyzacja kontaktu kulturowego w doniesieniach prasy brytyjskiej i irlandzkiej na temat Euro 2012
Authors: Wawrzyczek Irmina , Mazur Zbigniew 
Published: April 2019

<p align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Sport uważa się za uosobienie procesów międzykulturowych dzięki łączeniu ludzi w zgodnych działaniach przy jednoczesnym generowaniu konfliktów między nimi. Ta dwoistość sportu często znajduje odbicie w medialnych sprawozdaniach z imprez sportowych. Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia rezultat badań nad tekstami w prasie brytyjskiej i irlandzkiej poświęconymi finałom Mistrzostw Europy w piłce nożnej (Euro 212) rozgrywanym w Polsce i na Ukrainie, prowadzonych pod kątem ich międzykulturowego oddziaływania. Ton doniesień w gazetach pochodzących z dwu sąsiednich krajów i często należących do tych samych koncernów okazał się bardzo różny. Prasa brytyjska nie dostrzegła obszarów kulturowego zbliżenia między gospodarzami a gośćmi mistrzostw, przyjmując taktykę powielania znanych swoim czytelnikom historycznie utrwalonych stereotypów kulturowego i cywilizacyjnego zacofania Europy Wschodniej. Relacje o kulturowej interakcji Polaków i Irlandczyków zamieszczane w prasie irlandzkiej, choć w większości bardzo pozytywne, także opierały się na stereotypach i banalnych uogólnieniach o obu nacjach. Badanie wykazało, że zarówno doniesienia w prasie brytyjskiej jak i w irlandzkiej rządziły się wewnętrzna logiką i interesami tych mediów, a nie troską o jakość efektów międzykulturowych. </span></span></p><p> </p><p align="CENTER"> </p>
Humanistyka: jej prawa i powinności
Authors: Bukraba-Rylska Izabella 
Published: April 2019

<p>Współczesna humanistyka, jak zawsze, jest zagrożona przez trzy czynniki: rynek, politykę i biurokrację. Ale nauki humanistyczne w kraju takim jak Polska są w niebezpieczeństwie jeszcze z jednego powodu: braku intelektualnej autonomii. Polscy badacze zawsze interesowali się dużo bardziej nowinkami z Zachodu niż ich rodzimą tradycją. To dlatego, jak zwykle, pełnią rolę raczej komiwojażerów cudzych idei, zamiast samodzielnie tworzyć oryginalne teorie i narracje, które nadałyby znaczenie ich kulturze, społeczeństwu i krajowi. Osiągnięcie niepodległości w myśleniu jest najważniejszym wyzwaniem dla dzisiejszej polskiej humanistyki.</p>
