Abstract:

December 1989, Romania – a culture steeped in secrecy-fuelled paranoia is reflected in the family of six-year-old Adam Stan, whose father is missing and no one concedes to even talk about it. In the first of two sections of 2, a novel, through the eyes of Adam the child, the narrative explores the fall of Ceaușescu's regime and the incandescent bouts of hope brought on by the first Romanian democratic summer, but overshadowed by the presence of an absent father. Adam keenly experiences the joys and injustices of private and public life in both urban and rural Romanian landscapes, before he is

Abstract:

Sound-symbolism is the inherent link between the sound of a word and its meaning. The aim of this thesis is to gain an insight into the nature of sound-symbolism. There are five empirical chapters, each of which aims to uncover children and adults’ understanding of sound-symbolic words. Chapter 1 is a literature review of sound-symbolism. Chapter 2 is a cross-linguistic developmental study looking at the acquisition of sound-symbolism. Chapter 3 looks at childrens use of sound-symbolism in a verb-learning task. Chapter 4 looks at childrens use of sound-symbolism when learning and memorising no

Abstract:

This dissertation focuses on the Mid-Qing novel Guwangyan (Preposterous Words, preface dated, 1730s) which is a newly discovered novel with lots of graphic sexual descriptions. Guwangyan was composed between the publication of Jin Ping Mei (The Plum in the Golden Vase, 1617) and Honglou meng (Dream of the Red Chamber, 1791). These two masterpieces represent sexuality and desire by presenting domestic life in polygamous households set within a larger social landscape. This dissertation explores the factors that shifted the literary discourse from the pornographic description of sexuality in Jin

Abstract:

Purpose: This study investigates one possible reason for individual differences in vocabulary learning from written context. A Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) model is used to motivate the prediction of a causal relationship between semantic knowledge for words in a text and the quality of their hypotheses about the semantics of novel words, an effect mediated by reading comprehension. The purpose of this study was to test this prediction behaviorally, using a within subject repeated measures design to control for other variables affecting semantic word learning.

Abstract:

Although a unifying view of literacy development is already implicit within several studies, much of the knowledge is still fragmented. Hence, practitioners lack a comprehensive theoretical framework within which to articulate their practice. This thesis contributes to this framework by investigating whether children's conceptions of the alphabetic system: 1) determine the quality of their orthographic representations and their ability to make inferences about graph-phonetic segments, 2) are affected by adults' explanations of how scripts represent speech and by the characteristics of the part

Abstract:

Decision support systems have emerged over five decades ago to serve decision makers in uncertain conditions and usually rapidly changing and unstructured problems. Most decision support approaches, such as Bayesian decision theory and computing with words, compare and analyze the consequences of different decision alternatives. Bayesian decision methods use probabilities to handle uncertainty and have been widely used in different areas for estimating, predicting, and offering decision supports. On the other hand, computing with words (CW) and approximate reasoning apply fuzzy set theory to d

The purpose of this study was to gain support for the hypotheses that novel word learning engages verbal STM and lexical access processes and can be used to promote improvements in these abilities in treatment of aphasia.

This thesis contends that a return to a phenomenological analysis of Alain Robbe-Grillet's film and fiction is a relevant and useful undertaking at the start of the twenty first century, providing the opportunity to reassess Robbe-Grillet's entire oeuvre, both films and novels. It addresses the limitations of earlier phenomenological studies, analysing works not yet subjected to phenomenological analysis, and exploring important themes into which phenomenology can provide original insights, especially since the development of new phenomenological critical theories.

Abstract:

Researchers have been reporting temperament-language correlations in infants for 10 years. However, in order to identify directions of effects between temperament and language, methodologies besides correlations need to be developed. The “competition attention paradigm” is an effort to sidestep some of the direction-of-effect issues by asking infants to learn novel words in the context of environmental distractions designed to tap into children’s temperaments. The purpose of the present study was to explore whether environmental distracters would differentially impact 15-month-olds’ novel word

Abstract:

This thesis is a study on the use of works of art in Greek novels, based on the idea that the novelists understood it as one of the main features of their job. I recognise a coherent pattern whereby works of art are closely connected to protagonists and plot, which started already with first-century novels and continued throughout. Chapter One explores rhetorical theory of ekphrasis in order to provide technical information on it as well as to reassess the notion that descriptions of paintings in novels were entirely dependent on rhetoric. Chapter Two starts the analysis of the feature of work

Modern data centres provide large aggregate capacity in the backbone of networks so that servers can theoretically communicate with each other at their maximum rates.

MultiPath TCP (MPTCP) can effectively use the network resources of such topologies by performing fast distributed load balancing.

Background: Major depressive disorder is associated with elevated levels of DNA oxidation, DNA damage, and gene expression of DNA repair enzymes including poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1). Elevated PARP1 activity is directly linked to neuroinflammation and PARP inhibitors are anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective. We previously showed that PARP inhibitors produce antidepressant-like effects equivalent to fluoxetine in rodent models. Here, we examined whether the PARP inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide (3AB) is effective in a rat model of treatment-resistant depression. Methods: Treatment-resis

The aim of the present study was to investigate whether learning a meaningless phonological word-form, can affect its ability to compete with other words shortly after it was learned. According to previous experimental work we expected that a semantic referent (Leach & Samuel, 2007), and/or consolidation over a significant amount of time (Gaskell& Dumay, 2003) are necessary for a novel word-form to be able to engage in lateral inhibition with other words.

Abstract:

N-acylethanolamines (NAEs) are family of lipid-derived signaling molecules in many organisms, which include an endocannabinoid N-arachidonoylethanolamide (anandamide, AEA, NAE 20:4). NAEs, specifically AEA plays pivotal role in mammalian neurological and physiological functions; however their metabolism and functional implications in plants are yet to be fully discovered. Unlike seed plants, bryophytes possess unique fatty acid composition that includes 20:4 and 20:5, which prompted our search for endocannabinods in moss Physcomitrella patens. To this extent, we used targeted lipidomic analyse
