Abstract:
This thesis discusses two emerging technologies and how their integration with UAVs can improve the situational awareness capability of the Expeditionary Strike Group. Shotspotter is an acoustic gunshot detection system and Cursor on Target is an XML based schema to enhance information exchanges. When integrated with UAVs, these two technologies will drastically improve an ESG's efficiency and lethality in combat.

Abstract:
This research examines ESL teachers' awareness of lexical difficulty from the perspective of a language learner. Since most ESL teaching is text-based, it follows that teaching effectiveness is probably directly influenced by teachers' ability to identify the vocabulary context of texts which their learners actually find difficult. Two main research questions are addressed: (a) How good are teachers at tuning in to their students' difficulties with the vocabulary content of reading texts? and (b) What factors affect teachers' ability to identify vocabulary difficulty in reading texts?

Abstract:
The following study investigates using fiction to create gender awareness and understanding in the ESL classroom. As stated by Skolverket (2013), all teaching is to embody a gender perspective. However, for many educators, this is a multifaceted and difficult subject to grasp. Even more intricate is how to implement gender awareness into teaching, and the demanded knowledge level on the subject is challenging. Therefore, most L2 teachers do not take advantage of the possibilities offered by using fiction to address gender consciousness and question norms. Consequently, this study proposes inve

Many event-related potential (ERP) studies have tried to find out which brain processes are responsible for the subjective experience of seeing. The contribution of these studies has been crucial in order to identify the temporal and spatial dynamics of visual awareness. The negative difference wave named visual awareness negativity (VAN), observed around 200 ms after the stimulus onset, has been claimed by many as a plausible candidate for reflecting the processes correlating with conscious visual perception. Other studies argue instead that only the P3 wave, a positive wave observed around 3

Using EEG to experiment from title-Sponsor-programs, the purpose of this study is to: (a) clarify the definition and types of brand placement. (b) investi

Abstract:
The search for the Neural Correlate of Consciousness (NCC, Koch, 2004) is one of the unresolved problems of cognitive neuroscience. Although great efforts have been made to seek to answer this fundamental question, theories about the neural basis of consciousness provide different and competing answers. The heterogeneity of the NCCs interpretations could be due to a methodological gap since so far studies trying to unveil the neural correlates of visual awareness have employed techniques that can reach a high level of resolution only in one dimension (i.e., space or time) resulting to be inade

Questa tesi di dottorato si focalizza sullo studio sperimentale dei correlati neurali relativi alla percezione visiva e spaziale nell’uomo. Nello specifico, l’obiettivo di questo progetto è quello di identificare i marker elettrofisiologici della consapevolezza, sia in condizioni normali, sia quando la consapevolezza viene persa a causa di una lesione cerebrale reale o “virtuale”. In entrambi gli studi condotti è stato adottato un approccio causale multimodale, ovvero la coregistrazione dell’elettroencefalogramma durante la Stimolazione Magnetica Transcranica (EEG-TMS), che è in grado di forni

Abstract:
This dissertation argues for a novel methodological approach to the investigation of phenomena of second language acquisition (SLA). The field of second language acquisition arose in a historical academic context which traditionally linked it to primarily quantitative research methodologies. Introspective verbalized articulations of learners had been devalued in favor of observational examination of behavioral characteristics, an approach which, despite massive investments of research energies, failed to yield a coherent theoretical understanding of the SLA process, especially in adults.

Abstract:
Two ERP components, an early negative deflection (Visual Awareness Negativity; VAN), and a later positive deflection (Late Positivity; LP) are thought to reflect different properties of consciousness: the phenomenal content of a perception and access to it, respectively. The first experiment investigated the graded vs. dichotomous nature of consciousness. The aim was to search for the neural correlates of different grades of visual awareness analyzing the ERPs to reduced contrast stimuli, whose clarity was rated on the 4-point Perceptual Awareness Scale (PAS).

Abstract:
Research in the area of phonological awareness and young children has shown that phonological awareness skills are extremely important and positively correlated with the development of spelling and reading abilities. There is limited research investigating phonological awareness and spelling abilities in English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL)-learning children. So far it has been found that the phonological awareness skills of ESL-learning children are similar to those of native English-speaking children and they are also positively related to spelling and reading skills.

Abstract:
The general aim of the experiments described in my Thesis is to study how the brain creates a representation of the external world. In particular I have investigated three different aspects that make possible our subjective visual experience: Visual processing, short-term memory and the resulting perceptual awareness. The first part of the Thesis deals with visual perception and visual awareness by describing experiments involving behavioral tasks in brain damaged and healthy subjects. In particular, it is focused on when and where awareness arises. We used moving stimuli, because they can rea

Abstract:
One of the major challenges in the neuroscience of consciousness is to disclose the timing and neural mechanisms underlying visual awareness, the subjective experience of seeing. Electroencephalography (EEG) studies investigating the time course of consciousness-related neural processes have found two potential correlates of visual awareness: the N2 and the P3 ERP components. However, recent works have suggested that only N2 correlates to visual awareness, whereas later neural activity expressed by the P3 component reflects post-perceptual processes related to subjects’ report or to accumulati

Abstract:
Until recently, the majority of research in the area of English phonological awareness has centered on segmental phonology as predictors of reading. Current research, however, has expanded the concept of phonological awareness to include prosodic sensitivity⎯the awareness of suprasegmental information. The present study explores the role of five segmental and suprasegmental levels of English phonological awareness as predictors of individual differences in word reading in Korean children learning English. 104 native Hangul speaking children in Grade 3 were assessed on English levels of stress,
