Sosiaalisen median alustat ovat länsimaissa keskeisiä poliittisen viestinnän ja julkisuuden areenoita. Vaikka nopeiden mediaympäristössä tapahtuvien muutosten merkityksiä politiikalle on tutkittu paljon, tiedetään yhä vähän siitä, mikä merkitys dataistuneella tietoympäristöllä poliitikkojen arjelle. Artikkelissa ilmiötä lähestytään kysymyksenä politiikan syvästä medioitumisesta. Syvän medioitum...

Recent empirical reviews have claimed a surprisingly strong relationship between job performance and self-reported emotional intelligence (also commonly called trait EI or mixed EI), suggesting self-reported/mixed EI is one of the best known predictors of job performance (e.g., ρ = .47; Joseph & Newman, 2010b). Results further suggest mixed EI can robustly predict job performance beyond cogniti...

The synthesis of Nb doped BaTiO3 has been investigated under Microwave-Hydrothermal (MH) conditions in the temperature of 150°C for only 2 h using C16H36O4Ti, BaH2O2.8H2O and NbCl5 as Ba, Ti and  Nb sources, respectively.  Typical experiments performed on MH processing have not yet reported for Nb doped BaTi...

Knowledge representation was used to characterize beliefs in patients with Environmental Illness/Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (EI/MCS). EI/MCS patients, allergy and asthma patients, doctors and controls made relatedness judgments on concepts relevant to EI/MCS. Associative networks showed that EI/MCS patients viewed these concepts differently from others. Multiple chemical exposure was central...

UNLABELLED Subjective visual vertical (SVV) evaluates the individual's capacity to determine the vertical orientation. Using a neck brace (NB) allow volunteers' heads fixation to reduce cephalic tilt during the exam, preventing compensatory ocular torsion and erroneous influence on SVV result. OBJECTIVE To analyze the influence of somatosensory inputs caused by a NB on the SVV. METHOD Thirt...

Mice homozygous for the mutation normoblastosis (gene symbol nb on chromosome 8) are deficient in erythroid ankyrin (ANK-1) and have a severe hemolytic anemia throughout life. Characteristic of the disease is a dramatic decrease in the level of expression of the Ank-1 gene (chromosome 8). The other major ankyrin transcript, brain ankyrin (Ank-2 on chromosome 3) is expressed at normal levels in ...
