Nationalsozialistische und protofaschistische Sympathien an der Universität Freiburg i. Ü.: Die Ausweisung von Josef Spieler und die Neubesetzung des Lehrstuhls für Heilpädagogik durch Eduard Montalta

description: Der aus Deutschland stammende Josef Spieler hatte an der Universität Freiburg in der Schweiz von 1933 bis 1945 eine Professur in „Psychologie, Pädagogik und Heilpädagogik“ inne. Diese wurde ihm 1945 entzogen und er musste wegen nationalsozialistischen Sympa-thien 1947 die Schweiz verlassen. Die Forschung hat diese Vorkommnisse teilweise aufgear-beitet und sich, wenngleich zögerlich, auch schweizerischen Professoren mit Sympathien für den Faschismus gewidmet. Von der Forschung vernachlässigt wurde ein Netzwerk um die Caritas, welches Spielers Wiedereingliederung in Deutschland begünstigte. Zudem ist die Einordnung von Eduard Montalta, dem Nachfolger von Josef Spieler, bis heute umstritten. Dieser Text stellt die bis heute vorgebrachte Deutung einer scharfen ideologischen Diskontinuität zwischen Josef Spieler und Eduard Montalta in Frage.

description: A dose-response strategy may not only allow investigation of the impact of foods and nutrients on human health but may also reveal differences in the response of individuals to food ingestion based on their metabolic health status. In a randomized crossover study, we challenged 19 normal-weight (BMI: 20–25 kg/m2) and 18 obese (BMI: >30 kg/m2) men with 500, 1000, and 1500 kcal of a high-fat (HF) meal (60.5% energy from fat). Blood was taken at baseline and up to 6 h postprandially and analyzed for a range of metabolic, inflammatory, and hormonal variables, including plasma glucose, lipids, and C-reactive protein and serum insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and endotoxin. Insulin was the only variable that could differentiate the postprandial response of normal-weight and obese participants at each of the 3 caloric doses. A significant response of the inflammatory marker IL-6 was only observed in the obese group after ingestion of the HF meal containing 1500 kcal [net incremental AUC (iAUC) = 22.9 ± 6.8 pg/mL × 6 h, P = 0.002]. Furthermore, the net iAUC for triglycerides significantly increased from the 1000 to the 1500 kcal meal in the obese group (5.0 ± 0.5 mmol/L × 6 h vs. 6.0 ± 0.5 mmol/L × 6 h; P = 0.015) but not in the normal-weight group (4.3 ± 0.5 mmol/L × 6 h vs. 4.8 ± 0.5 mmol/L × 6 h; P = 0.31). We propose that caloric dose-response studies may contribute to a better understanding of the metabolic impact of food on the human organism. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01446068.

description: Teams in organizations are no longer pure virtual or pure face-to-face teams, but fall into the large hybrid category of those who use technology according to the needs of their task and team structure. Considering the assumption that the level of a team's virtuality may influence members' satisfaction, we explored the effects of team virtuality on member satisfaction in a sample of virtual team members in organizations (N = 159) using an online questionnaire. We defined two dimensions of virtuality: the proportion of e-mail vs. face-to-face communication and the proportion of co-located team members. By assessing satisfaction with different measures we were able to describe distinctive relationships between level of virtuality and member satisfaction. We found that virtual team members reported rather low job satisfaction. Results showed negative relationships between team virtuality and job satisfaction and satisfaction with working relationships in the team, respectively. We found no effects of team virtuality on resigned attitude towards one's job, satisfaction with team task performance, and satisfaction with computer-mediated communication. However, context variables other than level of virtuality had stronger effects on job satisfaction. Especially trust in other team members and adequate management information policies improved member satisfaction.

description: This research emphasizes the role that Islamic microfinance can play in ‎achieving and fulfilling the targets of socio-economic development in developing ‎countries with particular reference to of the Republic of Chad. One of the major ‎manifestations of economic and social underdevelopment in Chad, as in other ‎developing countries, is the lack of financial resources, the low level of technology, ‎and the lack of skilled human resources which are necessary to bring about real ‎development.‎ One of the main objectives of microfinance institutions is to support the SMEs ‎by trying to provide sufficient finance to them. Islamic microfinance has increased ‎progressively in the world, particularly in poor Muslim countries, as a trustworthy ‎alternative, which lets poor populations have access to basic financial services to ‎compete its peer counter. The thesis provides some recommendations to policymakers, Islamic Microfinance institutions, entrepreneurs, and SME managers to ‎decide the appropriate strategy to improve the SME sector in Chad.‎

description: Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to scrutinize platforms for members to exchange information by information-based online communities (IBOCs, like LinkedIn or Facebook). Because member participation is vital for IBOCs, this research aims to identify and validate factors that drive member participation. Design/methodology/approach – With reference to social exchange theory the authors developed a model of antecedents of participation in IBOCs that was tested with survey data using PLS. Because some of the results contradicted the theory, the authors examined those results in a mainly qualitative study with online community providers. These experts offered explanations that inform the discussionand managerial implications. Findings – Role clarity, provider’s responsiveness, and enjoyment all influence member participation. Contrary to theory, the cooperation of other members affects member participation negatively while a member’s ability shows no effect. Practical implications – This research has several implications for IBOC providers. Because ability does not affect participation directly, providers do not need to worry about lacking ability and can effectively target all potential members. The importance of provider responsiveness signals that IBOC providers should proactively monitor members’ compliance with social norms to lower the social risk for members. The impact of community-specific knowledge and enjoyment on participation puts emphasis on careful community design and the thoughtful implementation of new features that might enhance enjoyment, but reduce role clarity. Originality/value – Whereas most of the participation literature focusses on a dyadic relationship, the research investigates the triadic relationship in which the provider is only an enabler of exchange. Furthermore, the authors bring together two streams of the literature: the participation literature, which tends to focus on offline participation; and the online community literature, which has not yet investigated participation. This is also the first paper to investigate nonlinear effects on participation.

description: Um den Einfluss der Bildungsexpansion auf Partnerschaftsstabilität einzuschätzen, untersucht diese Studie den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Bildungsniveau und dem Trennungsrisiko in ehelichen oder nichtehelichen ersten Partnerschaften. Da sich der Bildungsgradient im Trennungsrisiko für Frauen (und, auf einem geringeren Niveau, für Männer) im Zuge der Bildungsexpansion von einem positiven auf ein statistisch nicht-signifikantes Niveau gesenkt hatte, ist letztere keine wesentliche Erklärung für die starke Zunahme der Trennungsraten in der Schweiz.
description: This study examines the association between educational attainment and separation risks in marital or non-marital first partnerships to query the extent to which educational expansion has affected trends in partnership stability. Because the educational gradient in separation changed from being positive for women (and, to a lesser extent, for men) to being statistically non-significant at the same time as educational expansion took place, the latter can only serve as a minor explanation of the exceptional rise in breakup rates in Switzerland.

RootInteractive tool for multidimensional statistical analysis, machine learning and analytical model validation
Creators: name: Ivanov, Marian I
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: RootInteractive is a general purpose tool for multidimensional statistical analyses, mainly used in the ALICE experiment at CERN. This Python-based tool enables dynamic, interactive visualisation and data aggregation and enhances capabilities on both the server and client side, expanding analysis possibilities for researchers and educators. As machine learning (ML) becomes increasingly important in multidimensional data analysis, interpreting ML models and assessing their uncertainties proves challenging, especially when the analyses reduce dimensionality, which can lead to misleading conclusions.

Our goal with RootInteractive is to streamline the management of complex multidimensional challenges. It allows users to visualise and fit multidimensional functions, incorporate uncertainty and bias, validate assumptions and define the functional composition of parametric and non-parametric analytical functions. This includes the use of symmetries and the development of multidimensional “invariant” functions/alarms, which are crucial for the validation of machine learning models and the optimisation of parameters in reconstruction, calibration and simulation.

RootInteractive uses a declarative programming paradigm that enables the construction of programme structures and the expression of computational logic without detailed control flow, making it easily accessible to professionals, students and educators alike. The tool supports interactive visualisation for both unbinned and binned data, facilitates n-dimensional histogramming/projection and enables the extraction of derived aggregated information on both the server (Python/C++) and client (JavaScript) side. It is compatible with client/server configurations via Jupyter and can also be used as a standalone client application or dashboard.

RootInteractive uses both lossy and lossless data compression and enables interactive analysis of large data sets — up to about O(10^7) entries times O(25) attributes — in a compressed browser environment of about 500 MB. By applying representative downsampling (O(10^-2 to 10^-3)) followed by reweighting or pre-aggregation on servers or batch farms, it facilitates effective multidimensional analysis of monthly/annual ALICE statistics for calibration, reconstruction validation, QA/QC or statistical/physical analyses.

Recent development in RootInteractive have focussed on better integration of downsampling of representative data and support for conditional reweighting in interactive multidimensional aggregation. An important development was the integration of a domain-specific language that simplifies integration with RDataFrame and thus facilitates complex data operations.

Indem Datenpakete an den Satelliten gesendet und von diesem empfangen werden, überprüft das TST die Ausgabe gegen die ECSS-Datenbanken, um sicherzustellen, dass die Software korrekt funktioniert. Ein Test ist dabei in zwei Teile gegliedert: den Testbefehl und die Verifizierung. Der Nutzer des TST gibt beide Teile des Tests an. Nachdem der Test spezifiziert wurde, erstellt das TST die erforderlichen Testskripte, die anschließend ausgeführt werden können. Im Progress Viewer zeigt das TST die Testergebnisse in einer für Menschen lesbaren Form an. Das TST vereinfacht die Erstellung der notwendigen Testskripte und automatisiert den Testprozess so weit wie möglich.
description: The Solar Wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer (SMILE) sets out to examine the interactions between the Sun’s charged particles and Earth’s magnetic field in unprecedented detail. Four instruments are carried for this purpose: the SXI, the UVI, the MAG, and the LIA. Each of these instruments must be constructed with the utmost care. We built the Test Specification Tool (TST) to assist with the testing of the SXI’s Data Processing Unit (DPU). By sending data packets to and from the satellite, the TST checks the output against the ECSS databases to ensure the software functions correctly. A test is split into two parts: the test command and the verification. The user of the TST specifies both parts of the test. After the test is specified, the TST creates the necessary test scripts, which can then be executed. In the Progress Viewer, the TST displays the testing results in a human-readable form. The TST simplifies the creation of the necessary test scripts and automates the testing process as much as possible.

description: Die Veranstaltung befasst sich mit einer Lücke in der Schweizer Theaterhistoriographie: Die Bedeutung der Oper für die kulturelle Selbstdefinition unserer Nachbarländer, etwa im Prozess des europäischen nation building, wurde vielfach erforscht. Da sich in der Schweiz bis heute keine eigenständige Operntradition entwickelt hat, bleibt zu untersuchen, inwieweit hierzulande andere Musiktheaterformen ähnliche identitätspolitische Funktionen übernehmen. Ansatzweise wurde diese Frage in jüngster Zeit in Bezug auf das populäre Festspiel erörtert, etwa in der gross angelegten Studie «Abschied von den Mythen. Das neuere politische Festspiel in der Deutschschweiz», die unser Gast Tobias Hoffmann 2018 veröffentlicht hat. Gemeinsam mit ihm wagen wir uns an einen genreübergreifenden Vergleich zur Veranstaltungspraxis des experimentellen Musiktheaters und gehen der These nach, dass volkskulturelle und avancierte Musiktheaterformen in der Schweiz zwar komplementäre soziokulturelle Gegenpole bilden, hinsichtlich künstlerischer Revisionen gesellschaftlicher Selbstbilder aber mehr gemein haben als bislang angenommen.

Islamic Tradition Meets Social Science the Case of "Islamic Psychology"
Creators: name: Kasapovic, Sumejja

Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 50
subject: Philosophy and religious studies

description: The last few decades have witnessed an increasing number of studies on the relationship between Islam and science in general, and Islam and social science in particular. Some of these studies have focused on the incommensurability between modern Western and classical Islamic understandings of science and knowledge. Others have attempted to produce Islamic versions of modern disciplines by critically engaging with modern knowledges and Islamizing their content. These efforts can be seen in the field of psychology, where proponents of its islamization claim that the relationship between this modern discipline and classical Islamic scholarship is not just possible but urgently needed in modern times. This thesis aims to evaluate the relationship between modern psychology and classical Islamic scholarship in the works of two major scholars, Malik Badri and Rasjid Skinner. Through a close reading of key texts the thesis aims to understand how proponents of “Islamic Psychology” draw on the Islamic tradition and on modern psychology for articulating their projects. The analysis sheds light on the ways in which Islamic psychology is in continuity and in rupture with both the Islamic tradition and modern psychology.
Near infrared spectroscopy for muscle specific analysis of intensity and fatigue during cross-country skiing competition: a case report

description: The aims of the study were to assess the robustness and non-reactiveness of wearable near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) technology to monitor exercise intensity during a real race scenario, and to compare oxygenation between muscle groups important for cross-country skiing (XCS). In a single-case study, one former elite XCS (age: 39 years, peak oxygen uptake: 65.6 mL/kg/min) was equipped with four NIRS devices, a high-precision global navigation satellite system (GNSS), and a heart rate (HR) monitor during the Vasaloppet long-distance XCS race. All data were normalized to peak values measured during incremental laboratory roller skiing tests two weeks before the race. HR reflected changes in terrain and intensity, but showed a constant decrease of 0.098 beats per minute from start to finish. Triceps brachii (TRI) muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) showed an interchangeable pattern with HR and seems to be less affected by drift across the competition (0.027% drop per minute). Additionally, TRI and vastus lateralis (VL) SmO2 revealed specific loading and unloading pattern of XCS in uphill and downhill sections, while rectus abdominus (RA) SmO2 (0.111% drop per minute) reflected fatigue patterns occurring during the race. In conclusion, the present preliminary study shows that NIRS provides a robust and non-reactive method to monitor exercise intensity and fatigue mechanisms when applied in an outdoor real race scenario. As local exercise intensity differed between muscle groups and central exercise intensity (i.e., HR) during whole-body endurance exercise such as XCS, NIRS data measured at various major muscle groups may be used for a more detailed analysis of kinetics of muscle activation and compare involvement of upper body and leg muscles. As TRI SmO2 seemed to be unaffected by central fatigue mechanisms, it may provide an alternative method to HR and GNSS data to monitor exercise intensity.
