Abstract:
Alla luce di una cartografia inadeguata a rappresentare la complessità della città contemporanea, con il ricco mosaico di pratiche generato dalle sue molteplici popolazioni, la ricerca qui presentata intende contribuire a costruire una diversa immagine urbana che possa descrivere la nascita e l'evoluzione di nuove dinamiche di vita e di lavoro, legate in particolare alla comparsa della popolazione dei rider. Lavoratori nomadi della città, i rider sono portatori di un punto di vista innovativo, che viene indagato attraverso un metodo volto a far emergere dalle mappe mentali disegnate dagli stessi rider la geografia generata dal loro movimento. Da qui si sviluppa un progetto di infrastrutturazione leggera della città, a servizio del lavoro dei rider e di tutti i cittadini. Parole chiave: rider; mappe mentali; geografie

Abstract:
SummaryMultiagency public protection arrangements (MAPPAs) were established in England and Wales 10 years ago to oversee statutory arrangements for public protection by the identification, assessment and management of high-risk offenders. This article reviews MAPPAs' relationship with mental health services over the past decade. Despite areas of progress in the management of mentally ill offenders, inconsistent practice persists regarding issues of confidentiality and information-sharing between agencies, which calls for clearer and more consistent guidance from the Royal College of Psychiatrists, the Ministry of Justice and the Department of Health.

Abstract:
Background Internet interventions for improving health and well-being have the potential to reach many people and fill gaps in service provision. Serious gaming interfaces provide opportunities to optimize user adherence and impact. Health interventions based in theory and evidence and tailored to psychological constructs have been found to be more effective to promote behavior change. Defining the design elements which engage users and help them to meet their goals can contribute to better informed serious games. Objective To elucidate design elements important in SPARX, a serious game for adolescents with depression, from a user-centered perspective. Methods We proposed a model based on an established theory of health behavior change and practical features of serious game design to organize ideas and rationale. We analyzed data from 5 studies comprising a total of 22 focus groups and 66 semistructured interviews conducted with youth and families in New Zealand and Australia who had viewed or used SPARX. User perceptions of the game were applied to this framework. Results A coherent framework was established using the three constructs of self-determination theory (SDT), autonomy, competence, and relatedness, to organize user perceptions and design elements within four areas important in design: computer game, accessibility, working alliance, and learning in immersion. User perceptions mapped well to the framework, which may assist developers in understanding the context of user needs. By mapping these elements against the constructs of SDT, we were able to propose a sound theoretical base for the model. Conclusions This study’s method allowed for the articulation of design elements in a serious game from a user-centered perspective within a coherent overarching framework. The framework can be used to deliberately incorporate serious game design elements that support a user’s sense of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, key constructs which have been found to mediate motivation at all stages of the change process. The resulting model introduces promising avenues for future exploration. Involving users in program design remains an imperative if serious games are to be fit for purpose.

Abstract:
Research on visual mental imagery has been fueled recently by the development of new behavioral and neuroscientific techniques. This review focuses on two major topics in light of these developments. The first concerns the extent to which visual mental imagery and visual perception share common psychological and neural mechanisms; although the research findings largely support convergence between these two processes, there are data that qualify the degree of overlap between them. The second issue involves the neural substrate mediating the process of imagery generation. The data suggest a slight left-hemisphere advantage for this process, although there is considerable variability across and within subjects. There also remain many unanswered questions in this field, including what the relationship is between imagery and working memory and what representational differences, if any, exist between imagery and perception.

Abstract:
Abstract High-level cognitive capacities that serve communication, reasoning, and calculation are essential for finding our way in the world. But whether and to what extent these complex behaviors share the same neuronal substrate are still unresolved questions. The present study separated the aspects of logic from language and numerosity—mental faculties whose distinctness has been debated for centuries—and identified a new cytoarchitectonic area as correlate for an operation involving logical negation. A novel experimental paradigm that was implemented here in an RT/fMRI study showed a single cluster of activity that pertains to logical negation. It was distinct from clusters that were activated by numerical comparison and from the traditional language regions. The localization of this cluster was described by a newly identified cytoarchitectonic area in the left anterior insula, ventro-medial to Broca’s region. We provide evidence for the congruence between the histologically and functionally defined regions on multiple measures. Its position in the left anterior insula suggests that it functions as a mediator between language and reasoning areas.

Full text
Abstract:
La simulazione computerizzata di folle in movimento è stato un campo piuttosto attivo recentemente, con applicazioni che vanno dall’intrattenimento alla gestione della sicurezza in luoghi pubblici o privati. Le simulazioni di folle devono prendere in considerazione non solo gli aspetti fisici dell’ambiente e dei pedoni, ma anche i fattori psicologici e sociali che hanno un effetto sul movimento delle persone. La capacità di orientarsi all’interno di un ambiente è una caratteristica fondamentale dell'essere umano e in quanto tale è indispensabile per una simulazione realistica. Diversi modelli assumono che i pedoni abbiano conoscenza totale dell’ambiente, cioè che ne conoscano la topologia e le metriche per intero. Ciò può essere ammissibile quando il processo di navigazione è banale, ad esempio in una piazza, tuttavia in ambienti più complessi questa è una grezza approssimazione, in quanto difficilmente ciascun pedone ne possiede una conoscenza completa (specie se molte delle persone coinvolte visitano l’edificio per la prima volta). Lo scopo del lavoro corrente è modellare la rappresentazione mentale che ciascun pedone ha dell’ambiente circostante, spesso parziale e inaccurata, comunemente nota come mappa cognitiva, e il processo mentale in atto in ogni persona che usa tali informazioni per scegliere quale percorso o direzione seguire (cioè orientarsi). I modelli descritti sono poi implementati all’interno del simulatore Alchemist, l'approccio adottato è ad agenti. Di particolare interesse per il lavoro corrente sono le simulazioni di evacuazioni di folle, per il loro valore nel prevenire situazioni disastrose durante la pianificazione di eventi o la progettazione di edifici. Detto ciò, i modelli presentati sono pensati per essere usati in qualsiasi tipo di simulazione.

Abstract:
Many workers are daily exposed to chemical risks in their work place that has to be assessed and controlled. Due to exposure variability, repeated and random measurements should be conducted for valid estimates of the average exposure. Traditionally, experts such as safety engineers, work environment inspectors, and occupational hygienists, have performed the measurements. In self assessment of exposure (SAE), the workers perform unsupervised exposure measurements of chemical agents. This thesis studies a prerequisite for SAE, i.e. the workers’ mental models of chemical exposure. Further, the workers’ mental models are contrasted with experts’ reasons and decision criteria for measurement. Both qualitative and quantitative data generated from three studies (Paper I, II, and III) were used to describe the workers’ mental model of chemical exposure. SAE was introduced to workers in three different industries; transports (benzene), sawmill industry (monoterpenes), and reinforced plastic industry (styrene). By interviews, qualitative data were collected on the workers’ interpretation of measurement results and preventive actions. To evaluate the validity of worker measurement, the measurements were compared with expert measurements. The association between each worker’s number of performed measurement and mean level and variability in exposure concentrations was calculated. Mean absolute percent/forecast error (MAPE) was used to assess whether the workers’ decision models were in accordance with a coherence or correspondence model. In Paper IV, experts (safety engineers, work environment inspectors, and occupational hygienists) were interviewed to elucidate their mental models about the triggers and decision criteria for exposure measurements. The results indicate that the workers’ measurement results were in agreement with experts’. However, the measurement results were not a strong enough signal to induce workers to take preventive actions and sustained exposure measurements even if the measurement result were close to the occupational exposure limit. The fit was best for the median model, indicating that the workers’ mental models for interpretation of measurement data can best be described by the coherence theory rather than by the correspondence theory. The workers seemed to mentally reduce the variation in the exposure to a measure of central tendency (the median), and underestimated the average exposure level. The experts were found to directly take preventive actions instead of performing exposure measurements. When they performed exposure measurements, a worst case sampling strategy was most common. An important trigger for measurement for the experts was “request from the employer” (safety engineers), “legal demands” (work environment inspectors), and “symptoms among workers” (occupational hygienists). When there was a trigger, all experts mentioned expectations of high exposure level as a decision criterion for measurements. In conclusion, the studies suggest that workers’ mental interpretation model is best described in terms of a coherence model rather than a model of correspondence. The workers reduced the variation mentally in favor of an estimate of average exposure (median), which may imply that they underestimate short-term, high exposure health risks. A consequence is that interpretation of measurements such as SAE cannot be given to the individual worker without some support, e.g. from an expert. However, experts often chose to directly take preventive actions, without measuring the exposure. The results indicate that also the experts need support e.g. from the legal system if exposure measurements are to be done.

Abstract:
Local communities are known for having different and in some cases divergent perceptions of reality than experts. Particularly with respect to climate change, there is incongruence in the way that experts, namely scientists, view climate change and its effects and the way that this is perceived by laypersons, particularly those that are most impacted by climate change. But what are those differences and how exactly are these conceptualized? The purpose of this chapter is twofold. First, it examines the differences among three stakeholders (scientists, policy makers, and fishers) in their view of climate change and its impacts, using the case study of the fishing industry in Trinidad and Tobago. These views are mapped using the mental model approach and then compared in order to determine the best way to address climate change within a local setting. There is a clear difference in the way fishers in this study view climate change from the way local scientists view it. There is, however, some overlap between the perspective of the fishers and that of the policy maker. Moving from a position that all perspectives are equally important if there is to be a meaningful response to climate change, this chapter develops a set of procedures for mapping community perceptions of climate change on to those of scientists and policy makers. The second and ultimate objective is to look at the implication that the mental modeling approach has for diffusion, adoption, and technology transfer in response to climate change.

Abstract:
For patients with ineffective auditory nerve and complete hearing loss, Auditory Brainstem Implant (ABI) presents diversity of hearing sensations to help with sound consciousness and communication. At present, during the surgical intervention, surgeons use pre-operative patient images to determine optimal position of an ABI on cochlear nucleus on brainstem. When found, the optimal position is marked and mentally mapped by the surgeon. Next, the surgeon tries to locate the optimal position in patient’s head again and places the ABI. The aim of this project is to provide the surgeon with maximum clinical application accuracy guidance to store the optimal position for the implant, and to provide intuitive audio guidance for positioning the implant at the stored optimal position. By using three audio methods, in combination with visual information on Image-Guided Surgery (IGS), surgeon should spend less time looking at the screen, and more time focused on the patient.

Abstract:
The paper describes a research conducted on the Faculty of Education of the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen in 2010 and 2011. The research aims to map the influence of project-based learning in Informatics on the mental condition of high-school students. Importance, pros and cons of project-based learning have been discussed several times within professional public; however, the area of project-based learning in connection with Informatics is still to be mapped to a full extent. The pilot research, which was conducted due to social demand of high-school Informatics teachers in the Czech Republic, clearly shows that the implementation of project-based learning directly into Informatics lessons is even more difficult. As a part of our research, we are focusing on the possible added value of project-based learning in the area of experience acquisition in the process of education. The age composition of the evaluated sample of responders was chosen intentionally, while we believe that subjective perception of mental condition in education is the key factor in the process of learning, mainly for adolescents. Our assumptions are based on the statement (Štefanovič a Rosina, 1960; Magdin et al., 2011), that person’s mental processes and attributes can be recognized and observed, for example, by means of psychological analysis of the constructs of their activity. The research consists of a preparatory part and a research and implementation part. As a part of the preparatory stage, projects that were specifically aimed on Informatics were created to be implemented as parts of educational process in selected high schools. To provide the best possible respect for specific principles of project-based learning and its delimitation in relation to theme-based or problem-based education, the projects were drawn according to the methodology of the Buck Institute for Education. They were being implemented into the educational process in five to seven weeks. In the research and implementation stage, the mental condition of the students was observed, during which time the scope of components of mental condition being detected was oriented on the spheres of comfort – discomfort and acquisition of experiences versus activity. For the purposes of the observation, a standardized psychometric tool focused on the evaluation of the structure and dynamics of subjective experiences and conditions – SUPSO - was used due to its validity and reliability. SUPSO is the outcome of factor analysis of precisely delimitated and pragmatically formulated scales formally including 92, in the next stage 72 (SUPSO 8) and then 28 (SUPSO 7) adjectives describing individual particular symptoms of psychological experiences, emotions and conditions of an individual (Mikšík, 2004). The results were processed according to the manual for the standardized psychometric tool and compared to the results of control groups. The control groups consisted of students of parallel classes of high school, i.e. of the same age and the same educational content, which did not implement the project-based learning. The research was conducted in cooperation with the Department of Computer Science and Educational Technology and the Department of Psychology at the Faculty of Education of the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen.

Abstract:
One of the major challenges faced by the decision maker in the design of complex engineering systems is information overload. When the size and dimensionality of the data exceeds a certain level, a designer may become overwhelmed and no longer be able to perceive and analyze the underlying dynamics of the design problem at hand, which can result in premature or poor design selection. There exist various knowledge discovery and visual analytic tools designed to relieve the information overload, such as BrickViz, Cloud Visualization, ATSV, and LIVE, to name a few. However, most of them do not explicitly support the discovery of key knowledge about the mapping between the design space and the objective space, such as the set of high-level design features that drive most of the trade-offs between objectives. In this paper, we introduce a new interactive method, called iFEED, that supports the designer in the process of high-level knowledge discovery in a large, multiobjective design space. The primary goal of the method is to iteratively mine the design space dataset for driving features, i.e., combinations of design variables that appear to consistently drive designs towards specific target regions in the design space set by the user. This is implemented using a data mining algorithm that mines interesting patterns in the form of association rules. The extracted patterns are then used to build a surrogate classification model based on a decision tree that predicts whether a design is likely to be located in the target region of the tradespace or not. Higher level features will generate more compact classification trees while improving classification accuracy. If the mined features are not satisfactory, the user can go back to the first step and extract higher level features. Such iterative process helps the user to gain insights and build a mental model of how design variables are mapped into objective values. A controlled experiment with human subjects is designed to test the effectiveness of the proposed method. A preliminary result from the pilot experiment is presented.
