description: Insomnia is common among elderly people and nearly 30 to 40% of the adult population also suffer from insomnia. Pharmacological treatment of insomnia include the use of benzodiazepine and non-benzodiazepine drugs like zolpidem, zaleplon, Zopiclone. Although these drugs improve sleep ,their usage is also associated with number of adverse effects, Melatonin ,the hormone secreted by the pineal gland of all animals and human beings has been used for treatment of insomnias,since the timing of its secretion in humans as well as in most of the animals coincides with the increase of nocturnal sleep propensity.Because of its short half life,melatonin slow release preparations were introduced for treatment of insomnia. Recently ramelteon ,a selective MT1,MT2 receptor agonist with greater efficacy of action in treating insomnia has been used clinically and has been found effective in improving sleep quality ,sleep efficacy and also in reducing the sleep onset time when compared to melatonin or slow melatonin preparations.The mechanism of action of ramelteon in improving sleep is discussed in the paper. Another melatonergic drug agomelatine besides acting on MT1/MT2 receptors also displays 5-HT2c antagonism and this drug has been found effective as a novel antidepressant for treating major depressive disorders.Agomelatine besides causing remission of depressive symptoms also improves sleep quality and efficiency. Other antidepressants depressants that are in clinical use today do not improve sleep. There are other melatonergic drugs like tasimelteon ,6-chloromelatonin.But ramelteon and agomelatine deserve special attention for treatment of insomnia and sleep disturbances associated with depressive disorders and have promising role for treatment of sleep disorders.

description: Aims; To screen and detect individuals at ultra high risk (UHR) for psychosis and evaluate the efficacy of a screening program Methods: This is a two-stage study involving relatives of patients with schizophrenia. The first degree relatives were screened with the GHQ-12 and non-first degree relatives were additionally screened with the self-constructed screening questionnaires (SQ). All the positive subjects from the initial screening will he proceeded
to the second stage screening.Results: Fifteen (13.5%) of 111 subjects were positive in the first stage. After the second stage screening, only 3 (2.7%) were positive (UHR subject). Two (2.6%) cases were first degree relatives and the other one (3%) was non-first degree relatives. Although the majority of the positive subjects in the initial screening
were detected through the GHQ-12, only one of them was positive in the second stage. Conclusion: Screening of genetic risk relatives of schizophrenia is feasible. The detection rate of subject at UHR was much lower than expected, especially among first degree relatives. The higher detection rate among non-first degree relatives is contributed by the addition of the SQ. The GHQ-12 is not suitable for screening in early psychosis; it should he combined with other screening instruments.

description: Il presente lavoro analizza l?evoluzione del sistema educativo della provincia di Modena e il ruolo da essosvolto a sostegno dello sviluppo dell?economia locale dal 1945 ad oggi. Il periodo considerato ha visto unforte sviluppo della scolarizzazione di massa, che ha coinvolto in modo massiccio le classi socialisubalterne. Questo fenomeno � stato trainato dall?istruzione tecnica e professionale, che ha vistol?organizzazione di scuole di eccellenza: sia negli indirizzi industriali che in quelli amministrativi. Glieffetti sul sistema della imprese locali sono stati imponenti. A partire dagli anni Sessanta, i diplomatitecnici e professionali hanno sostenuto e favorito lo sviluppo dei distretti industriali manifatturieri, inparticolare della meccanica, sia come lavoratori dipendenti che come lavoratori autonomi ed imprenditori.Tuttavia, a cavallo tra gli anni Ottanta e Novanta, il meccanismo virtuoso che metteva in stretto legamel?istruzione tecnica e professionale dei giovani modenesi con il mondo delle imprese, sembra essersi inparte inceppato. Il punto di maggiore criticit� appare non tanto una insufficiente quantit� di diplomati, mala loro qualit� meno capace che in passato di soddisfare le esigenze delle imprese.This work analyses the evolution of the education system in the province of Modena and its role infostering the development of the local economy from 1945 to present days. The period investigated wascharacterised by a massive growth in schooling (and in particular in secondary schooling) that involved toa great extent the lower social classes. This increase in secondary schooling was pulled by technicaleducation. Modena became the seat of some of the best-ranked technical schools in Italy, both in theindustrial and in the commercial courses. Since the 1960s, graduates from technical school nurtured thelocal society with competences that prompted the development of some thriving industrial districts,especially in mechanical engineering, both as skilled workers and as entrepreneurs. However, since thelate 1980s, the virtuous circle that linked local technical school to local development seems to have atleast in part jammed. The main problem does not seem to be a shortage of graduates but a lower quality oftheirs which makes them less apt than in the past to meet the demand of local firms.

description: Objective: The present study aims to assess verbal memory performance in patients with schizophrenia attending HUSM and determine the relationship between the patients’ verbal memory performance and their demographic/clinical factors. Methods: A cross sectional study of 114 patients with schizophrenia attending HUSM psychiatric services from December 2007 to May 2008 was conducted. The schizophrenia symptoms as well as verbal memory performance were assessed using the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale, the Malay version of the Calgary Depression Scale (MVCDS), and the Malay version of the Auditory Verbal Learning Test (MVAVLT). The relationship between verbal memory performance and demographic/clinical symptoms was evaluated using Pearson Correlation. Results: Overall MVAVLT scores in all the trials were lowered in patients with schizophrenia compared to average healthy controls. There were significant relationships between occupational status and MVAVLT performance in Trial A1-A5 Total; between educational level and MVAVLT performance in Trial A1 and Trial A1-A5 Total and between severities of illness; and MVAVLT performance in all indexes except Trial A1 after controlled for occupation and educational level. Conclusions: Patient with schizophrenia in HUSM performed significantly worse than healthy controls in verbal memory with or without interference. There were significant relationships between MVAVLT performance and patient’s occupational status, educational level and severity of the illness but not depressive symptoms.

description: Objective: Many studies have emphasized the significance of verbal memory for the functional outcome in schizophrenia. A preserved capability to encode and recall verbal information is essential for the long-term efficacy of psycho-educational programs and other psychological intervention to ensure the successful transfer of newly acquired skills or knowledge into everyday life. Aims of this study aimed to validate the MVAVLT among schizophrenia patients in HUSM. Methods: The subjects were 15 schizophrenia patients conveniently selected from the patients that attended follow up at the psychiatry clinic in HUSM or in patients who have been admitted during the study period and 15 healthy control subjects as a comparison. Reliability and validity of the MVAVLT were analyzed. Results: The validation study showed that the Malay version Auditory Verbal Learning Test (MVAVLT) had a good validity (factor analysis 0.66 to 0.98) and test-retest reliability (Pearson correlation ranged from 0.24 to 0.84) and has been shown to be sensitive in discriminating between normal and schizophrenia patients. In line with the previous research, the schizophrenia patients performed significantly worse than healthy control in all indexes measured in MVAVLT. Conclusion: The screening of deficits in verbal learning and memory among the schizophrenia patients is important, for early detection and treatment since it can be helpful for clinicians and psychologists in their counseling sessions. Subsequently, it helps patients to reduce such cognitive difficulties and their impact by using specific rehabilitation with the usage of newer antipsychotic agents.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: La résolution de problèmes est un aspect central et complexe de l’enseignement des mathématiques. Nous avons pour objectif en tant qu’enseignant×e d’amener les élèves à adopter une posture scientifique dans leurs apprentissages. Cette compétence joue un rôle crucial dans le parcours des élèves car celle-ci se trouve être au centre de notre plan d’études. Malheureusement, nous avons observé à travers nos diverses expériences que celle-ci n’était pas réellement enseignée en tant que telle aux élèves ou de façon peu approfondie. Nous nous sommes donc penchées sur la question. Suite à diverses recherches dans la littérature, nous nous sommes intéressées à l’histoire contextuelle du problème et à la modélisation des énoncés comme outils à la résolution de problèmes. Dans le cadre théorique de notre travail, nous explicitons et détaillons ces deux approches. Nous questionnons également les croyances qui existent concernant la résolution de problèmes et le rapport que les élèves peuvent avoir avec celle-ci. Suite à ces recherches, nous avons mené une séquence en classe afin de voir si ces deux outils pouvaient améliorer la représentation qu’ils×elles se construisent de leurs problèmes et par conséquent la résolution de ceux-ci. L’objectif de cette séquence était que les élèves prennent conscience de l’histoire qui découle d’un énoncé et comprennent que le sens et le contexte ont tout autant d’importance que les données numériques qui leur sont données. En parallèle, notre intention était d’enrichir leur palette d’outils afin qu’ils×elles puissent prendre en charge leurs apprentissages, développer une meilleure compréhension dans la résolution de problèmes et renforcer leurs compétences dans ce domaine. Notre travail se termine par une discussion sur les résultats obtenus en lien avec notre cadre théorique ainsi que les possibles biais survenus lors de notre expérimentation.

description: Objective: To assess the relationship between levels of burden on primary caregivers and social behaviour problem of patients with schizophrenia. Design: Cross-sectional study. Materials and Methods: The study involved forty five patients attending Psychiatry Clinic. The level of burden on primary caregivers was assessed using Burden on Family Interview Schedule (BFS) and the social behaviour problem of patients with schizophrenia was assessed using Social Behaviour Schedule (SBS). Results: Employment status and monthly household income of primary caregivers were significantly correlated with amount of burden. Caregivers experienced enormous amount of both subjective and objective burden. Financial burden was the greatest objective burden affecting at least one third of the caregivers. Amount of burden experienced by primary caregivers was significantly correlated with social behaviour problem of patients particularly hostility, over activity, restlessness, and destructive behaviour. Conclusion: The levels of burden on caregivers are high with employment status and monthly household income of caregivers are predictive of higher levels of burden.

description: Abstract: Cognitive impairment cases referred to psychiatric clinic are very few especially those who have mild disease. Formal evaluation of cognitive impairment is time consuming and it involves consultation with an expert in psychological
training. One clinically useful test for practitioners is the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). Although MMSE has shown good reliability and validity, using this instrument in a language and culture other than English may create problems. However the test has never been validated in Bahasa Malaysia even though it is a widely used screening test during patient’s clinical examination. This study was done to translate and validate MMSE into Bahasa Malaysia.
Care and the Capability of Living a Healthy Life in a Gender Perspective

Publisher: name: CAPP (Centro Analisi delle Politiche Pubbliche)

description: This paper deals with the definition of the capability of living a healthy life with special reference to the Italian context. The increasing ageing of Italian population and the higher likelihood for elderly to experience poorer health conditions (Addabbo, Picchio; 2010; Addabbo, Chiarolanza, Fuscaldo, Pirotti, 2010) lead us to focus especially on elderly population and gender differences in the measurement of the development of this capability.
Institutional as well family and individual conversion factors are analysed in their interaction with the observed development of the capability of living a healthy life taking a gender perspective.
To measure the latter we use both self assessed health status and objective gerontological measures of health conditions available in the Italian sample of the Survey of Health, Ageing, Retirement in Europe (SHARE). The self-completion questionaire, that is submitted only to a part of the whole SHARE sample, allows to gain important information on the household characteristics and in particular on the sharing of different responsibilities within the household (doing the cleaning, caring for children and elderlies, earning money etc.). Part of this information is also retrospective. This allows us to extend our analysis on the measurement of individual current achievement in the capability taking into account how conversion factors can interact with the development of the capability since it allows a long term analysis of their effect.

Norms of Rationality and Investment Decisions: CAPM, Arbitrage and Description Invariance

Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Politica - Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2005

description: The classical Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) represents a well-rooted paradigm of rationality for investment decision-making. Following some anticipations in Magni [European Journal of Operational Research 137 (2002) 206] and Magni [AppliedFinancial Economics Letters, forthcoming] this paper shows that decision makers abiding by the CAPM prescriptions violate two other standards of rationality: The arbitrage principle and the principle of description invariance. In particular, referring to investments, (i) the notion of value in the CAPM is incompatible with the one employed in arbitrage theory; (ii) CAPM-minded decision makers may fail to exploit arbitrage opportunities; (iii)the principle of additivity is not fulfilled in CAPM-based asset valuation; (iii) the notion of value derived from CAPM is senseless; (iv) CAPM-minded agents fall prey to framingeffects. In other terms, this paper fosters the idea that economic agents complying with this consolidated paradigm of valuation and decision-making exhibit biases in investmentvaluation and choice.

Year: 2013

description: This paper investigates the effect of revenue and geographic diversification on bank performance, also on a risk adjusted basis. Using an unbalanced panel dataset of 3,002 observations relative to Italian banks for the period 2006-2011, the core question is to analyse the effect of geographic and functional diversification across and within both interest and non-interest income and their effect on some principal performance measures. Furthermore in our study we analyse whether certain type of institutions are better able to reap the benefits of diversification analysing performance implications for different categories of banks and if the results have been affected by the financial crisis. The main results suggest that revenue and geographical diversification play a role in determining bank performance. The relative effects appear, however, to be different between mutual and not-mutual banks suggesting different business strategies for different banks. Moreover, in the after crisis period, banks that have been less penalized in terms of riskadjusted profit are those characterised by a gretare focus on non interest income component and the ones more geographically diversified. These findings have strategic implications both for bank managers, regulators and supervisors for the consequences on banks? performance and stability.

description: Abstract: The recent trend towards community psychiatry appears to have shifted much of the burden of care of the chronically mentally ill from the institutions to the family. The objective of this study was to assess the implication of psychopathology in forty five schizophrenic patients on burden experience by their primary caregivers. Patients' psychopathology was assessed using Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and the burden on caregivers was measured using Burden on Family Interview Schedule (BFS). The prevalence of burden was extensive with 40% reported severe subjective burden. The greatest objective burden was treatment expenses affecting 35.6% of primary caregivers. Schizophrenic patients' psychopathology (particularly delusion, hostility and hallucinatory behaviour) was found to be significantly correlated with the amount of burden experienced by primary caregivers. Grandiosity and stereotyped thinking were the least burdensome symptoms imposed on the caregivers.

We concluded that this patient had used defense mechanism of suppression, reaction formation and persecution throughout her delusion. The final persecutory delusion evolved through series of transformation via object of admirations. We postulated that in-depth emotional insight about effects of schizophrenia might have contributed to her self-reflection that have made her frustrated with her poor achievement in life.

description: The information content of option prices on the underlying asset has a special importance in finance. In particular, with the use of option implied trees, market participants may price other derivatives, estimate and forecast volatility (see e.g. the volatility index VIX), or higher moments of the underlying asset distribution. A crucial input of option implied trees is the estimation of the smile (implied volatility as a function of the strike price), which boils down to fitting a function to a limited number of existing knots. However, standard techniques require a one-to-one mapping between volatility and strike price, which is not met in the reality of financial markets, where, to a given strike price, two different implied volatilities are usually associated (coming from different types of options: call and put). In this paper we compare the widely used methodology of discarding some implied volatilities and interpolating the remaining knots with cubic splines, to a fuzzy regression approach which does not require an a-priori choice of implied volatilities. To this end, we first extend some linear fuzzy regression methods to a polynomial form and we apply them to the financial problem. The fuzzy regression methods used range from the possibilistic regression method of Tanaka, Uejima and Asai [14], the least squares fuzzy regression method of Savic and Pedrycz [13] and the hybrid method of Ishibuchi and Nii [4].

description: Dans le cadre de notre mémoire professionnel, nous avons instauré un lombricompost dans deux salles de classe du cycle 1 du canton de Vaud. Ce travail a été réalisé sous forme d’une séquence interdisciplinaire, créée à l’aide d’une matrice interdisciplinaire. Elle se base sur l’approche sensible dans une perspective d’éducation à la durabilité. La finalité de ce projet était de développer chez les élèves des compétences clés de l’éducation à la durabilité (penser en systèmes, développer un sens d’appartenance et changer de regard) et des connaissances du PER (MSN 16, MSN 18, SHS 11 et FG 16-17). La question de recherche à laquelle nous avons répondu est la suivante : « Comment évoluent les connaissances et les compétences des élèves suite à la mise en place d’un lombricompost dans une classe de cycle 1, dans le cadre d’une éducation à la durabilité ? » Afin d’y répondre, nous avons utilisé une méthode de cas, dont la récolte de données s’est faite sous la forme d’un journal de bord, de traces des élèves et de focus groupes. Ces trois techniques nous ont permis de faire une triangulation des données. Avoir mis un lombricompost dans une classe a eu des effets majoritairement positifs dans nos résultats. Nous avons constaté une évolution des connaissances dans les savoirs disciplinaires enseignés et dans certaines compétences développées. Les outils didactiques utilisés et l’approche pédagogique mise en place ont été bénéfiques à ces résultats. Cette séquence a été mise en place sur 13 semaines, à raison d’une à deux fois par semaine en continu. Les modalités d’enseignement ont varié (collectif, petits groupes, travaux individuels, fiches, ateliers, dessins, sorties en forêt et stop motion). Nous avons souhaité avoir un enseignement motivant et qui conviennent à tou·te·s les élèves, ce qui s’est avéré être le cas.
Motion Planning and Control of Dynamic Humanoid Locomotion

description: Inspired by human, humanoid robots has the potential to become a general-purpose platform that lives along with human. Due to the technological advances in many field, such as actuation, sensing, control and intelligence, it finally enables humanoid robots to possess human comparable capabilities. However, humanoid locomotion is still a challenging research field. The large number of degree of freedom structure makes the system difficult to coordinate online. The presence of various contact constraints and the hybrid nature of locomotion tasks make the planning a harder problem to solve. Template model anchoring approach has been adopted to bridge the gap between simple model behavior and the whole-body motion of humanoid robot.
Control policies are first developed for simple template models like Linear Inverted Pendulum Model (LIPM) or Spring Loaded Inverted Pendulum(SLIP), the result controlled behaviors are then been mapped to the whole-body motion of humanoid robot through optimization-based task-space control strategies. Whole-body humanoid control framework has been verified on various contact situations such as unknown uneven terrain, multi-contact scenarios and moving platform and shows its generality and versatility. For walking motion, existing Model Predictive Control approach based on LIPM has been extended to enable the robot to walk without any reference foot placement anchoring. It is kind of discrete version of ?walking without thinking?.
As a result, the robot could achieve versatile locomotion modes such as automatic foot placement with single reference velocity command, reactive stepping under large external disturbances, guided walking with small constant external pushing forces, robust walking on unknown uneven terrain, reactive stepping in place when blocked by external barrier. As an extension of this proposed framework, also to increase the push recovery capability of the humanoid robot, two new configurations have been proposed to enable the robot to perform cross-step motions. For more dynamic hopping and running motion, SLIP model has been chosen as the template model. Different from traditional model-based analytical approach, a data-driven approach has been proposed to encode the dynamics of the this model. A deep neural network is trained offline with a large amount of simulation data based on the SLIP model to learn its dynamics.
The trained network is applied online to generate reference foot placements for the humanoid robot. Simulations have been performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in generating bio-inspired and robust running motions. The method proposed based on 2D SLIP model can be generalized to 3D SLIP model and the extension has been briefly mentioned at the end.

description: Using a panel data of Italian corporate companies, this paper evaluates the impact of mandatory gender quotas in corporate boards in the financial sector. We find that gender quotas reduce glass ceiling barriers in this traditionally male industry, increasing women?s presence on boards of both companies targeted by the law and in those that are not, with positive spillover effects on this subsample. We also find that the higher women?s presence on boards has different impacts on firms? financial performance: it has a negative effect on the financial sector as a whole and a positive one on firms with small boards. Our results support the introduction of gender quotas, given its positive spillover effects on glass ceiling barriers and on the overall increased women?s presence on boards.

description: Effective biosecurity is underpinned by rapid detection of pathogens within an evidence-based testing framework, and supported by a quality management system. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a molecular diagnostics platform that detects the genome of a pathogen. The LAMP enzyme is more resistant to inhibitors, so the pathogen nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) does not need to be purified, enabling detection directly from the sample. This makes LAMP different from other molecular tests, and gives it a robustness that allows LAMP to be used in resource-limited settings, be field-deployable and used as a point-of-care tool. Agriculture Victoria, with the support of colleagues from the Asia–Pacific region including Timor-Leste and Bhutan, have been developing and verifying LAMP assays for foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) and African swine fever virus (ASFV). These two pathogens affect food production systems and animals of cultural importance in the region and – if detected in Australia – within our borders. We are developing an advanced quality management system to support the adoption and implementation of this emerging technology. Specifically, our research is determining the best in-field sample type for FMDV and ASFV, accruing verification data obtained through ongoing quality control and virtual communication, and establishing a proficiency testing program to assess the reagents and operators. The establishment of a sample and data management framework will support confirmatory testing for these significant pathogens, as required.

description: The Weak Weak Axiom (WWA) for the aggregate excess demand function ensures uniqueness of equilibrium in regular economies. Jerison (1999) shows that the WWA holds if the excess demand satisfies the hypothesis of Nondecreasing Dispersion of Excess Demand (NDED). This note offers a new hypothesis guaranteeing that the WWA holds and suggests a new way for obtaining supporting empirical evidence.

description: Introduced in this thesis is an approach in enhancing the rotational invariance of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), through integrating the novel Log-CORDIC algorithm for image pre-processing. This image pre-processing algorithm presents an advantage over existing cartesian-to-polar transform algorithms for images, through the computational advantages of the Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer (CORDIC) algorithm. The results of the novel algorithm are studied and compared with existing transform methods, along with its efficiency improvements, and its ability to enhance rotational invariance in a CNN is ascertained by integrating it into the pipeline of a customized SqueezeNet neural network. Focusing on the CIFAR-10 and MNIST datasets, experiments with this customized SqueezeNet neural network demonstrate an improvement in classification accuracy for images with varied orientations.
description: Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία παρουσιάζεται μια προσέγγιση για την ενίσχυση της αμετάβλητης ως προς την περιστροφή των εικόνων εισόδου συμπεριφοράς των Νευρωνικών Δικτύων Συνελικτικής Επεξεργασίας (CNN), μέσω της ενσωμάτωσης ενός νέου αλγορίθμου Log-CORDIC για την προεπεξεργασία εικόνας. Αυτός ο αλγόριθμος προεπεξεργασίας εικόνας παρουσιάζει πλεονεκτήματα έναντι των υφιστάμενων αλγορίθμων μετασχηματισμού εικόνων από καρτεσιανή σε πολική μορφή, μέσω των υπολογιστικών πλεονεκτημάτων του αλγορίθμου CORDIC (Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer). Τα αποτελέσματα του νέου αλγορίθμου μελετώνται και συγκρίνονται με τις υπάρχουσες μεθόδους μετασχηματισμού, μαζί με τις βελτιώσεις της αποδοτικότητάς του, και διαπιστώνεται η ικανότητά του να ενισχύει το αμετάβλητο της περιστροφής σε ένα CNN, ενσωματώνοντάς σε ένα τροποποιημένο νευρωνικό δίκτυο SqueezeNet. Εστιάζοντας στα σύνολα δεδομένων CIFAR-10 και MNIST, τα πειράματα με αυτό το προσαρμοσμένο νευρωνικό δίκτυο SqueezeNet αποδεικνύουν βελτίωση της ακρίβειας ταξινόμησης για εικόνες με ποικίλους προσανατολισμούς.
