Abstract:

Background: Staphylococcus aureus carriage is a risk factor for subsequent infections. Data on the prevalence, determinants, population structure and molecular epidemiology of S. aureus nasal carriage among healthy African populations are scarce, especially during infancy. The different S. aureus nasal carriage patterns (intermittent and persistent) were defined in the adult population, however, were ill defined during infancy. A consensus definition for these patterns is still lacking since different approaches were used to define carriage patterns. In addition, few studies used strain genoty

The principle intention of the study is to illustrate and shed light upon human infant development and how the newborn becomes a fully functioning member within the family. The study provides a context in which to consider parent-infant interaction beginning in utero, expanding to the birthing process, and continuing through the infant's first year. It focuses on specific themes of parent-infant interaction. The following sit

Extant results from infant studies are reviewed and aligned with current phonological theory. In particular, such theory characterises phonology as bi-modular, so the acquisition of individual melod

Abstract:

Young children’s writing activity in English Reception classrooms is framed by a rigid developmental model whereby children are conceived of as ‘becoming’ writers. However, recent postSstructuralist research suggests that writing activity, as an assemblage of objects, bodies, expressions and territories, involves constant change rather than being fixed to particular frameworks. This ethnographic enquiry focussed on six children in one Reception class during one school year. Deleuzoguattarian ideas were ‘plugged into’ a sociocultural, multimodal understanding of young children’s writing and the

Two age groups of infants were tested for their ability to learn an AAB or ABA repetition generalization in sequences of musical chords.

Another group of 7.5-month-old infants successfully learned a generalization across melodies that all ended on a particular scale degree, even though the key of the melodies was varied. A survey of a musical corpus of children's songs reveals that AAB and ABA patterns do not occur more frequently than chance, while phrases frequently end on particular scale degrees. Tog
