Redes sociais: perceções de aprendizagem em ambiente formal, não‑formal e informal por parte de jovens, seus encarregados de educação e seus professores
Authors: Tomé Vitor 
Published: November 2015

As redes sociais online (RSO) são ferramentas com potencial no desenvolvimento da literacia digital, focada na aquisição de competências técnicas, de análise crítica e de práticas de formação, contextualmente situada em contextos de aprendizagem formal e informal complementares. Apresentamos neste artigo os resultados de uma investigação que visou compreender se há condições para concretizar o potencial das RSO, pelo que inquirimos jovens portugueses (10‑16), seus professores e encarregados de educação (EE), a que se seguiram entrevistas de grupos focais e entrevistas semiestruturadas, seguindo o design dos métodos mistos. Os professores reconhecem potencial pedagógico às RSO, mas consideram, tal como os alunos e os EE, que a aprendizagem com recurso às RSO ocorre sobretudo no contexto informal, que veem como quase estanque em relação ao formal, não se sentindo preparados para os integrar no caso específico das RSO.
Rubricas humorísticas das rádios portuguesas como desconstrução da atualidade
Authors: Pereira Luís , Ribeiro Fábio 
Published: November 2015

A paródia é uma forma de desconstruir a realidade e pode muito bem contribuirpara manter as pessoas informadas – sendo esta dimensão informativa uma parterelevante da Educação para os Media. A programação das manhãs da rádio em Portugal apresenta diversos espaços humorísticos. Com esta investigação exploratória pretende‑se fazer uma recolha de todos os programas satíricos de curta duração das principais rádios portuguesas para compreender se esses programas têm como tópico a atualidade informativa. Para além da análise de cerca de 50 programas de caráter humorístico, este trabalho inclui ainda dados sobre a percepção de mais de uma centena de ouvintes relativamente à rádio e ao humor. Uma das sugestões dos ouvintes inquiridos é precisamente que os programas satíricos versem mais sobre as temáticas da atualidade política e social.
A indenização da vítima no juízo cível com base em sentença penal condenatória transitada em julgado
Authors: Lovato Luiz Gustavo 
Published: November 2015

<p class="Default"> O processo criminal tem por escopo prin­cipal a punição do agente que pratica um crime. Por punição a lei prevê a privação de liberdade, a restrição de direitos e a multa, todos cumpridos perante o Estado. A reparação ou compensação do dano sofrido pela vítima é um efeito secundário da condenação penal, que lhe permite não mais discutir esse direito, mas executar diretamente o seu crédito em face do condenado. A participação da vítima do processo criminal, porém, é mínima, resumindo-se ao depoimento. Ela não tem espaço para requerer a condenação do réu a lhe inde­nizar e, menos ainda, produzir provas relacionadas à extensão do dano sofrido. Com base nesses problemas, a execução direta da sentença penal condenatória transitada em julgado, sem a neces­sidade de liquidação prévia no cível, torna-se cada vez mais difícil de ser realizada. Quiçá impossível.</p>
Modified chain regression type estimator for population mean in the presence of non- response
Authors: Khare Brij , Rehman Habib 
Published: November 2015

A modified chain regression type estimator forÂ population mean in the presence of non-response have been proposed replacing Hansen & Hurwitz (1946) estimator for population mean by Searls (1964) type improved estimator and using Hansen & Hurwitz (1946) estimator forÂ based on available information comparing to the study characterÂ in the second phase sample. The expressions for MSE for fixed sample sizeÂ Â and also fixed costÂ Â have been obtained. The empirical studies show that the proposed estimator is more efficient than the relevant estimators in the case of fixed sample size as well as for fixed cost.
Do Economic Development Incentives Crowd Out Public Expenditures in U.S. States?
Authors: Wang Jia 
Published: November 2015

Abstract
This paper investigates whether economic development incentives (EDI) crowd out public expenditures in U.S. states. Using EDI data from a new database, this paper employs a two-way fixed effect panel framework and generalized method of moments (GMM) approach to account for dynamic features associated with public expenditures. Potential endogeneity of policy variables and problems with unbalanced panels are also addressed. Results show relatively little effect of incentives spending on most public goods expenditures contemporaneously, with negative repercussions beginning to appear in year one. Findings of this paper carry practical importance for policymakers concerning the efficacy of incentives.
A blueprint of the Entrenchment-and- Conventionalization Model
Authors: Schmid Hans-Jörg 
Published: November 2015

AbstractLanguages are subject to change, but they are also stable. The linguistic knowledge of the members of speech communities is similar, but also differs in many ways. Language use affects individual linguistic knowledge and contributes to linguistic conventionality. The present paper outlines a model of how language works that strives to do justice to these commonsensical observations. The model consists of cognitive processes and social processes and shows how these interact under the influence of usage events and a range of different types of forces.
Usage-based linguistics and conversational interaction
Authors: Zeschel Arne , Proske Nadine 
Published: November 2015

AbstractSpeakers’ linguistic experience is for the most part experience with language as used in conversational interaction. Though highly relevant for usage-based linguistics, the study of such data is as yet often left to other frameworks such as conversation analysis and interactional linguistics (Couper-Kuhlen and Selting 2001). On the basis of a case study of salient usage patterns of the two German motion verbs kommen and gehen in spontaneous conversation, the present paper argues for a methodological integration of quantitative corpus-linguistic methods with qualitative conversation analytic approaches to further the usage-based study of conversational interaction.
Insulin sensitivity affects corticolimbic brain responses to visual food cues in polycystic ovary syndrome patients
Authors: Alsaadi Hanin M. , Van Vugt Dean A. 
Published: November 2015

Abstract

Background: This study examined the effect of insulin sensitivity on the responsiveness of appetite regulatory brain regions to visual food cues.

Materials and methods: Nineteen participants diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) were divided into insulin-sensitive (n=8) and insulin-resistant (n=11) groups based on the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA2-IR). Subjects underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while viewing food pictures following water or dextrose consumption. The corticolimbic blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) responses to high-calorie (HC) or low-calorie (LC) food pictures were compared within and between groups.

Results: BOLD responses to food pictures were reduced during a glucose challenge in numerous corticolimbic brain regions in insulin-sensitive but not insulin-resistant subjects. Furthermore, the degree of insulin resistance positively correlated with the corticolimbic BOLD response in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), anterior cingulate and ventral tegmental area (VTA) in response to HC pictures, and in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), mPFC, anterior cingulate, and insula in response to LC pictures following a glucose challenge. BOLD signal in the OFC, midbrain, hippocampus, and amygdala following a glucose challenge correlated with HOMA2-IR in response to HC-LC pictures.

Conclusion: We conclude that the normal inhibition of corticolimbic brain responses to food pictures during a glucose challenge is compromised in insulin-resistant subjects. The increase in brain responsiveness to food pictures during postprandial hyperinsulinemia may lead to greater non-homeostatic eating and perpetuate obesity in insulin-resistant subjects.
1.2 Die Moral der anderen. Nietzsches Wertkritik
Authors: Saar Martin 
Published: November 2015

ZusammenfassungDie Hoffnung, bei Nietzsche eine affirmative oder positive Lehre von ,neuen‘ Werten zu finden, könnte trügerisch sein. Es könnte sinnvoller sein, sich an den Implikationen seiner Kritik der Werte zu orientieren und an seinem Beharren darauf, dass neue Werte allererst zu schaffen wären. In einer solchen negativistischen Lesart erscheint Nietzsche weniger als Prophet oder Vordenker neuer Werte, dem sich die heutige praktische Philosophie systematisch anschließen könnte, denn als Diagnostiker der Macht und problematischen Autorität der alten Werte. Nietzsches Haltung zu den Werten (oder zur Normativität allgemein) ist primär anti-autoritär, und dies betrifft und relativiert auch seine eigenen Versuche, für andere verbindliche Elemente einer neuen Moral zu entwerfen.
Nietzsche’s Science of Love
Authors: Chouraqui Frank 
Published: November 2015

AbstractIn this paper, I examine the possibility of constructing an ontological phenomenology of love by tracing Nietzsche’s questioning about science. I examine how the evolution of Nietzsche’s thinking about science and his increasing suspicion towards it coincide with his interest for the question of love. Although the texts from the early and middle period praise science as an antidote to asceticism, the later texts associate the scientific spirit with asceticism. I argue that this shift is motivated by Nietzsche’s realization that asceticism and science share the same fetish of facts. It is now for Nietzsche no longer a matter of proving the so-called facts of the back worlds to be wrong (something science is very capable of doing), but a matter of rejecting the very structure of thought that reduces a shapeless reality into a series of facts, subjects and objects. It is this second attitude that Nietzsche regards as the common core of science and asceticism. From this critique of science and its correlative critique of facts, Nietzsche begins searching for a counter-attitude able to perform the reduction of the factual attitude. This is the attitude he calls love. Although Nietzsche’s concept of love has oft en been elucidated in terms of its object or its subject, I argue that such interpretations precisely defeat Nietzsche’s point, which is to recover a ground that precedes the division of the world into subjects and objects. Love becomes the name of this intra-relationship of being, opening up to new perspectives on Nietzsche’s ontology of the will to power.
Contesting Nietzsche’s Agon. On Christa Davis Acampora’s Contesting Nietzsche
Authors: Siemens Herman 
Published: November 2015

AbstractThis paper engages in a critical discussion with Christa Davis Acampora concerning Nietzsche’s concept of the agon. It takes issue with the “meaning-making” model of the agon developed in her book Contesting Nietzsche, the typology for distinguishing productive agonal confl ict from destructive confl ict, and its application to the Apollinian-Dionysian relation in GT and to Nietzsche’s critique of Socrates. Acampora’s model, it is argued, modernises and soft ens Nietzsche’s agon by taking out the moment of negation, disempowerment, or critical opposition that belongs together with reciprocal affi rmation or stimulation in agonal interaction.
Religiosität – eine Ressource von Lebenszufriedenheit und Gesundheit?
Authors: Grom Bernhard 
Published: November 2015

Zusammenfassung:
Bei einer Allensbach-Erhebung (2006) bejahten 46% der West- und 23% der Ostdeutschen die Frage, ob sie „persönlich aus dem Glauben Trost und Kraft ziehen“. Nach einer Emnid-Umfrage (2015) erklärten 56% der West- und 34% der Ostdeutschen, dass sie beten – sei es regelmäßig, gelegentlich oder nur in Krisen. Wirkt sich diese Religiosität auf die Lebenszufriedenheit sowie auf die psychische und körperliche Gesundheit aus? Was weiß die Forschung darüber?
„Zum Glück“ in der Schule sein? Lebenskompetenzen als Unterrichtsfach
Authors: Graf Ulrike 
Published: November 2015

Zusammenfassung:
Eine hohe Veränderungsgeschwindigkeit und zunehmende individuelle Gestaltungsspielräume gehören zu den Herausforderungen unserer Zeit. Sie bedürfen einer pädagogischen Antwort, damit gesund umzugehen. Die Glücksforschung macht darauf aufmerksam, dass neben strukturellen Maßnahmen die Perspektive des Individuums auf sich und die Welt eine Quelle höherer Lebenszufriedenheit sein kann. „Wie nehme ich die Welt?“ könnte als Leitthema über dem Glücksunterricht stehen, der durch Erfahrungsübungen und deren Reflexion den Zugang zu eigenen Erlebnisqualitäten ermöglicht und gleichzeitig Räume für die Erprobung noch unausgeschöpfter Möglichkeiten öffnet.
Electrochemical, computational and spectroscopic investigation on local environment of plutonium in ionic liquid and aqueous medium: a comparative study

Published: November 2015

Abstract
With an aim to understand the nature of species, cyclic voltammetry (CV) of Pu(IV) in dilute HBr and in a room temperature ionic liquid
(RTIL), 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (C8mimBr) was carried out. Shifts of cathodic and anodic peak potentials of
Pu(IV) cyclic voltammograms were observed towards negative potentials in the extended electrochemical window for ionic liquid medium
compared to 2 M HBr. The diffusion coefficient of the most likely species of Pu(IV) in aqueous medium was found to be
greater than that of the corresponding species in ionic liquid while the activation energy showed reverse trend. The Pu(IV)/Pu(III)
redox reaction was found to be exothermic in aqueous medium while it was endothermic in C8mimBr. The redox reaction was found
to be quasi reversible for both the media while the extent of irreversibility was more in ionic liquid. UV-Vis spectroscopy of Pu in
these media showed significant differences in the peak positions and their relative intensities, indicating the possible differences in the
interactions of Pu(IV) with the solvent molecules resulting in speciation differences. A new prominent peak was observed in RTIL which
could be for a new species of Pu(IV). Computational studies were also carried out to understand the solvation of Pu and the possibility
of thermodynamic conversion from Pu(IV) to Pu(III).
N,N-dialkyl-2-hydroxyacetamides for modifier-free separation of trivalent actinides from nitric acid medium
Authors: Prathibha T. , Kumaresan R. , Selvan B. Robert , Venkatesan K. A. , Antony M. P. , Vasudeva Rao P. R. 
Published: November 2015

Abstract
The alkyl derivatives of N,N,-dialkyl-2-hydroxyacetamide (DAHyA), namely, N,N,-dihexyl-2-hydroxyacetamide (DHHyA),
N,N,-dioctyl-2-hydroxyacetamide (DOHyA), N,N,-didecyl-2-hydroxyacetamide (DDHyA), were synthesized and characterized
by FT-IR, and NMR spectroscopy. The extraction behaviour of Am(III) in a solution of DAHyA in n-dodecane was studied as a function of
various parameters to evaluate the feasibility of using DAHyA for partitioning of trivalent actinides from high-level liquid waste
(HLLW). The distribution ratio of Am(III) (D
Am(III)) in 0.1 M DAHyA/n-DD increased from 10−4 to > 200
with increase in nitric acid concentration from 1 M to 6 M. A D
Am(III) value 10–70 was obtained
in a nitric acid concentration range from 3–4 M. The extraction of Am(III) in 0.1 M DAHyA/n-dodecane
decreased in the order DHHyA > DOHyA > DDHyA. The third-phase formation behaviour of nitric acid and neodymium (III) in
0.2 M DAHyA/n-dodecane was studied. Near stoichiometric amount of neodymium (III) can be loaded in octyl and decyl
derivatives without any third-phase formation from 3–4 M nitric acid medium. Unlike other extractants, the loaded
trivalent metal ion in DAHyA can be recovered even with 1 M nitric acid. Therefore, the study revealed that
N,N,-dialkyl-2-hydroxyacetamides are promising candidates for partitioning the trivalent actinides from HLLW.
Reliable disease biomarkers characterizing and identifying electrohypersensitivity and multiple chemical sensitivity as two etiopathogenic aspects of a unique pathological disorder
Authors: Belpomme Dominique , Campagnac Christine , Irigaray Philippe 
Published: November 2015

Abstract
Much of the controversy over the causes of electro-hypersensitivity (EHS) and multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) lies in the absence of both recognized clinical criteria and objective biomarkers for widely accepted diagnosis. Since 2009, we have prospectively investigated, clinically and biologically, 1216 consecutive EHS and/or MCS-self reporting cases, in an attempt to answer both questions. We report here our preliminary data, based on 727 evaluable of 839 enrolled cases: 521 (71.6%) were diagnosed with EHS, 52 (7.2%) with MCS, and 154 (21.2%) with both EHS and MCS. Two out of three patients with EHS and/or MCS were female; mean age (years) was 47. As inflammation appears to be a key process resulting from electromagnetic field (EMF) and/or chemical effects on tissues, and histamine release is potentially a major mediator of inflammation, we systematically measured histamine in the blood of patients. Near 40% had a increase in histaminemia (especially when both conditions were present), indicating a chronic inflammatory response can be detected in these patients. Oxidative stress is part of inflammation and is a key contributor to damage and response. Nitrotyrosin, a marker of both peroxynitrite (ONOO°-) production and opening of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), was increased in 28% the cases. Protein S100B, another marker of BBB opening was increased in 15%. Circulating autoantibodies against O-myelin were detected in 23%, indicating EHS and MCS may be associated with autoimmune response. Confirming animal experiments showing the increase of Hsp27 and/or Hsp70 chaperone proteins under the influence of EMF, we found increased Hsp27 and/or Hsp70 in 33% of the patients. As most patients reported chronic insomnia and fatigue, we determined the 24 h urine 6-hydroxymelatonin sulfate (6-OHMS)/creatinin ratio and found it was decreased (<0.8) in all investigated cases. Finally, considering the self-reported symptoms of EHS and MCS, we serially measured the brain blood flow (BBF) in the temporal lobes of each case with pulsed cerebral ultrasound computed tomosphygmography. Both disorders were associated with hypoperfusion in the capsulothalamic area, suggesting that the inflammatory process involve the limbic system and the thalamus. Our data strongly suggest that EHS and MCS can be objectively characterized and routinely diagnosed by commercially available simple tests. Both disorders appear to involve inflammation-related hyper-histaminemia, oxidative stress, autoimmune response, capsulothalamic hypoperfusion and BBB opening, and a deficit in melatonin metabolic availability; suggesting a risk of chronic neurodegenerative disease. Finally the common co-occurrence of EHS and MCS strongly suggests a common pathological mechanism.
Radiofrequency exposure in young and old: different sensitivities in light of age-relevant natural differences
Authors: Redmayne Mary , Johansson Olle 
Published: November 2015

AbstractOur environment is now permeated by anthropogenic radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation, and individuals of all ages are exposed for most of each 24 h period from transmitting devices. Despite claims that children are more likely to be vulnerable than healthy adults to unwanted effects of this exposure, there has been no recent examination of this, nor of comparative risk to the elderly or ill. We sought to clarify whether research supports the claim of increased risk in specific age-groups. First, we identified the literature which has explored age-specific pathophysiological impacts of RF-EMR. Natural life-span changes relevant to these different impacts provides context for our review of the selected literature, followed by discussion of health and well-being implications. We conclude that age-dependent RF-EMR study results, when considered in the context of developmental stage, indicate increased specific vulnerabilities in the young (fetus to adolescent), the elderly, and those with cancer. There appears to be at least one mechanism other than the known thermal mechanism causing different responses to RF-EMR depending upon the exposure parameters, the cell/physiological process involved, and according to age and health status. As well as personal health and quality-of-life impacts, an ageing population means there are economic implications for public health and policy.
Zwischen latín und romance: Syntaktische Variation und Sprachwandel in den Fueros de Coria Cima-Coa (12./13. Jh.)
Authors: Meyer-Hermann Reinhard 
Published: November 2015

AbstractThe central object of study of the present research is the syntax of the family of legal texts “Fueros de Coria Cima-Coa” (FCCC), which emerged in the Leonese-Portuguese Extremadura in the 12th and 13th centuries. The aim is to reconstruct phases of language change from written (medieval) Latin to written Romance language with the aid of codices which partly evolved through several stages of modification. The different domains of Latin syntax are replaced at different points in time by their romance cognates. In the chapter texts of the FCCC the predominance of Latin OV word order is retained until the most recent codex, Coria (14th century), while the Romance postposition of the infinitive in auxiliary constructions is already predominant in the earliest Fuero of the FCCC, Ciudad Rodrigo (around 1190-1208). The view propagated by Wright and his “school”, according to which the texts which arose between the 5th and the 11th century in the Iberian Peninsula are “plenamente romances”, is shown to be incorrect on empirical grounds. The different graphematic conventions of the FCCC do not permit systematic conclusions to be drawn about the underlying syntax. The investigation concludes with a new genealogical stemma of the FCCC which overcomes the inevitable contradictions of the proposal of Martínez Díez (1971) which had previously been regarded as consensual opinion.
Tagore in the Diaspora: Presence, Ritual, Nostalgia
Authors: Lange Bernd-Peter 
Published: November 2015

Abstract
The hype around the sesquicentenary of Rabindranath Tagore’s birth in 2011 and the centenary of his Nobel Laureateship in 2013 for some time outshone the overall trajectory of the sage’s reputation in South Asia’s public spheres. While Tagore has been firmly inscribed into India’s and Bangladesh’s cultural memory, it rests on a shifting basis. Since Tagore’s death, the focus of reactions to his work across his wide productive range has moved from a real presence into a ritualised one which in turn has progressed into commemorative nostalgia. This gradual movement can be traced most clearly in the South Asian diaspora, expressed by writers from Nirad Chaudhuri through Anita Desai, Salman Rushdie, Sunetra Gupta, Vikram Seth, Shashi Tharoor, Monica Ali and Arvind Adiga. It is being continued most reflexively in Amit Chaudhuri’s attempts at negotiating Tagore’s legacy for the present time.
