Language sample analysis has come to be considered the “gold standard” approach for cross-cultural language assessment. Speech-language pathologists assessing individuals of multicultural or multilinguistic backgrounds have been recommended to utilize this approach in these evaluations (e.g., Pearson, Jackson, & Wu, 2014; Heilmann & Westerveld, 2013). Language samples can be elicited with a variety of different tasks, and selection of a specific method by SLPs is often a major part of the assessment process. The present study aims to facilitate the selection of sample elicitation methods by identifying the method that elicits a maximal performance of language abilities and variation in children’s oral language samples. Analyses were performed on Play, Tell, and Retell methods across 178 total samples and it was found that Retell elicited higher measures of syntactic complexity (i.e., TTR, SI, MLUw) than Play as well as a higher TTR (i.e., lexical diversity) and SI (i.e., clausal density) than Tell; however, no difference was found between Tell and Retell for MLUw (i.e., syntactic complexity/productivity), nor was there a difference found between Tell and Play for TTR. Additionally, it was found that the two narrative methods elicited higher DDM (i.e., frequency of dialectal variation) than the Play method. No significant difference was found between Tell and Retell for DDM. Implications for the continued use of language sample for assessment of speech and language are discussed.

Texte intégralStochastic programming problem with equality constraints is considered within thesis. More precisely, the problem is minimization problem with constraints in the form of mathematical expectation. We proposed two iterative methods for solving considered problem. Both procedures, in each iteration, use a sample average function instead of the mathematical expectation function, and employ the advantages of the variable sample size method based on adaptive updating the sample size. That means, the sample size is determined at every iteration using information from the current iteration. Concretely, the current precision of the approximation of expectation and the quality of the approximation of solution determine the sample size for the next iteration. Both iterative procedures are based on the line search technique as well as on the quadratic penalty method adapted to stochastic environment, since the considered problem has constraints. Procedures relies on same ideas, but the approach is different.By first approach, the algorithm is created for solving an SAA reformulation of the stochastic programming problem, i.e., for solving the approximation of the original problem. That means the sample size is determined before the iterative procedure, so the convergence analyses is deterministic. We show that, under the standard assumptions, the proposed algorithm generates a subsequence which accumulation point is the KKT point of the SAA problem. Algorithm formed by the second approach is for solving the stochastic programming problem, and therefore the convergence analyses is stochastic. It generates a subsequence with accumulation point that is almost surely the KKT point of the original problem, under the standard assumptions for stochastic optimization.for sample size. The number of function evaluations is used as measure of efficiency. Results of the set of tested problems suggest that it is possible to make smaller number of function evaluations by adaptive sample size scheduling in the case of constrained problems, too.Since the considered problem is deterministic, but the formed procedures are stochastic, the first three chapters of thesis contain basic notations of deterministic and stochastic optimization, as well as a short sight of definitions and theorems from another fields necessary for easier tracking the original results analysis. The rest of thesis consists of the presented algorithms, their convergence analysis and numerical implementation.

Texte intégralAlgoritamsko trgovanje je automatizovani proces izvršavanja naloga na elektronskim berzama. Može se primeniti na širok spektar nansijskih instrumenata kojima se trguje na berzi i karakteriše ga značajna kontrola investitora nad izvršavanjem njegovih naloga, pri čemu se teži nalaženju pravog balansa izmedu troška i rizika u vezi sa izvršenjem naloga. S ozirom da se merenjem performasi izvršenja naloga određuje da li je postignuto najbolje izvršenje, u praksi postoji značajan broj različitih pokazatelja. Najčešće su to pokazatelji cena, neki od njih se određuju pre trgovanja (eng. Pre-trade), neki u toku trgovanja (eng. Intraday), a neki nakon trgovanja (eng. Post-trade). Dva najdominantnija pokazatelja cena su VWAP i Arrival Price koji je zajedno sa ostalim "pre-trade" pokazateljima cena poznat kao Implementation shortfall (IS).Pojam negative selekcije se uvodi kao "post-trade" mera performansi algoritama izvršenja, polazeći od pojma optimalnog naloga, koji predstavlja idealni nalog koji se mogao izvrsiti u datom vremenskom intervalu, pri ćemu se pod pojmom "idealni" podrazumeva nalog kojim se postiže najbolja cena u tržišnim uslovima koji su vladali u toku tog vremenskog intervala. Negativna selekcija se definiše kao razlika vektora optimalnog i izvršenog naloga, pri čemu su vektori naloga defisani kao količine akcija na odgovarajućim pozicijama cena knjige naloga. Ona je jednaka nuli kada je nalog optimalno izvršen; negativna, ako nalog nije (u potpunosti) izvršen, a pozitivna ako je nalog izvršen, ali po nepovoljnoj ceni.Uvođenje mere negativne selekcije zasnovano je na ideji da se ponudi nova, alternativna, mera performansi i da se u odnosu na nju nađe optimalna trajektorija i konstruiše optimalno izvršenje naloga.U prvom poglavlju teze dati su lista notacija kao i pregled definicija i teorema neophodnih za izlaganje materije. Poglavlja 2 i 3 bave se teorijskim pregledom pojmova i literature u vezi sa mikrostrukturom tržišta, pokazateljima trgovanja i algoritamskim trgovanjem. Originalni rezultati su predstavljeni u 4. i 5. poglavlju. Poglavlje 4 sadrži konstrukciju optimalnog naloga, definiciju i osobine negativne selekcije. Teorijski i praktični rezultati u vezi sa osobinama negativna selekcije dati su u [35]. Poglavlje 5 sadrži teorijske osnove stohastičke optimizacije, definiciju modela za optimalno izvršenje, kao i originalni rad u vezi sa metodom nemonotonog linijskog pretraživanja [31], dok 6. poglavlje sadrži empirijske rezultate.

Texte intégralThis thesis describes a preexperimental, within-subject, pretest-posttest design used to measure the impact of an in-service training about computerized language sample analysis (CLSA) on the knowledge, comfort level, and implementation practices of21 graduate students in Communicative Disorders enrolled at California State University, Long Beach. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected through three surveys: one delivered during clinical practicum didactic sessions prior to the training, one on the day ofthe training, and one survey delivered 12 weeks post-training after the graduate student clinicians had an opportunity to use the computer program they learned about in the training. Results indicated that CLSA knowledge, comfort level and likelihood of implementation increased slightly immediately following the training, but were found to decline over time due to lack of exposure and practice. However, these results were not statistically significant. Findings are discussed as they relate to the current speech-language pathology literature, and possible avenues for further research into this area are explored.

The aim of this doctoral dissertation was the development of fast and reliable voltammetric methods based on the application of simple and contemporary electrodes/sensors based on carbonaceous materials (carbon paste made of graphite powder and paraffin oil and screen printed carbon electrodes) for the determination of H 2 O2 in the selected complex model and real samples.For this purpose, applicability of different working electrodes was investigated.The amperometric method based on carbon paste electrode (CPE) bulk- modified with 5% (m:m) MnO 2 , under optimized conditions, with a working potential of 0.40 V vs. the saturated calomel elect rode (SCE) and a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.50) as supporting electrolyte, enabled the quantitation of H 2 O2in the concentration interval from 1.4 to 65 µg mL −1 with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of less than 10%. This meth od was applied for the determination of the H 2 O2 consumption in samples of groundwater fro m the Central Banat region (Province of Vojvodina, Serbia) treated by the Fenton (Fe 2+ and H 2O2 ) and Fenton- like (Fe 3+and H 2O2 ) reagents to remove natural organic matter (NOM) at differentinitial concentrations of iron species, and of their molar ratios to the initial concentration of H2O2 . It was found that the form of Fe (Fe 2+ or Fe 3+ )and the molar ratio to H 2O2influenced the degree of the H 2O2 decomposition in the groundwater with high NOM content. Besides, in the case of the Fenton-like process, for all initial doses of Fe 3+ and H 2 O2, a sign ificant amount of H 2 O2 remained unused, whi ch also indicates a lower efficiency of such system compared to the Fenton process. Screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) bulk-modified with MnO 2 as a mediator was applied for amperometric determination of the H 2 O2 content during the Fenton (Fe 2+ , H 2 O2 ) and visible light-assisted , photo-Fenton (Fe 2+ , H 2 O2 , hν) based removal of neonicotinoid insecticide acetamiprid (ACT). Under optimized conditions (working potential of 0.40 V vs. SCE, phosphate buffer pH 7.50 as supporting electrolyte) amperometric determination of H 2 O2 showed a linear dynamic range from 0.01 to 1.24 mmol L -1 (from 0.34 to 42.2 µg mL -1) and the RSD did not exceed 4.2%. In the investigated samples (after appropriate pH adjustment from 2.8 to 7.5 instantly after the sampling to stop or maximum decelerate the oxidation processes, filtering, and storage of the deep- frozen sample with defrosting immediately before the measurements) the H 2 O2 contents were determined by the standard addition method by analyzing the corresponding amperometric curves. Parallel HPLC-DAD measurements were performed to monito r the concentration/removal of ACT. In the case of the photo- Fenton process (initial concentrations: 0.31; 2.0 and 3.0 mmol L -1 (70.0; 111.7 and 102.1 µg mL -1 ) of ACT, Fe 2+ and H 2 O2, respec tively) after 10 min of irradiation H 2 O2 was consumed and it can be consi dered that ACT was removed after 5 min. During the Fenton process ACT was removed after 20 min of treatment and around 10% of the initial concentration of the H 2O2 remained still unused.CPE was surface modified with a composite of Pt nanoparticles (< 5 nm) on graphitized carbon (Pt-C, 10% Pt on Vulcan XC72) by simply dropcoating method. The unmodified CPE and the modified one (Pt-C/CPE) were characterized by EM/EDS and CV measurements. The PtC/CPE showed remarkable electrocatalytic propertiestoward the electrochemical redox reaction of H 2 O2 compared to modified CPE in phosphate buffer (0.1 mol L -1 ; pH 7.50), as well in acetatebuffer (0.1 mol L -1 ; pH .50) supporting electrolytes. Amperometry of H2O2 in the concentration range from 0.15 to 1.45 µg mL -1 with the Pt-C/CPE showed acceptable linearity, while the obtained values of LOQs were 0.06 µg mL -1 (pH 7.50, working potential 0.20 V) and 0.10 µg mL -1 (pH 4 .50, working potential 0.50 V). The proposed analytical methods were applied to the determination of the H 2O2 content in commercially available personal care products; i.e., disinfection (pH 7.50) and contact lens cleaning solutions (pH 4.50). The obtained amperometric results are in good agreement with those measured by traditional titanium sulfatereagent based spectrophotometric method with determined concentrations as 2.91% and 2.94% for the disinfection product, and 3.04% and 3.17% for the contact lens solution, respectively. RSD was lower than 2%. The obtained results are in a good agreement with the amounts of the H 2 O2 declared by producers (3%) in the both investigated samples. The Pt-C/CPE was also tested for monitoring of the H 2 O2 residual concentration in contact lens solution during its neutralization/decomposition rocess. At 6 h of neutralization treatment 24.68 µg mL -1 of the H 2 O2 was determined which is almost half of the allowedH2 O2 concentration in the case of the contact lens solution concerningthe limit of eye irritation. CPE was surface modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and with composites of MnO 2 -MWCNT or Pt-MWCNT by drop coating method to prepare simply, sensitive and reliable volta mmetric sensors for the determination of H 2 O2 in selected sample. The results of the SEM/ EDS analysis of composite materials have confirmed that the mediators, MnO 2 and Pt articles, are randomly distributed on the surface of MWCNT and represent nearly 5% (m:m) of the composite expressed as Mn and Pt. CV measurements were performed with prepared electrodes in acetate (pH 4.50), phosphate (pH 7.50) and borate (pH 9.18) buffers to characterize the basic electrochemical behavior of H 2 O2 and to select the working potentials suitable for amperometric determination of this target analyte. The Pt-MWCNT/CPE performs well in phosphate buffer pH .50 and acetate buffer solution pH 4.50 in the negative as well as in the positive polarization range with RSD mainly lower than 2.5%. In case of MnO 2 -MWCNT/CPE at 0.30 V and above the H 2 O2 oxidation signal is rem arkable in slightly alkaline media (pH 7.50), at pH 4.50 this electrode showed poor behavior and at pH 9.18 offered acceptable performance. LOQs were in the µg mL -1 concentration range. H 2 O2 was determined in a spiked milk sample by standard addition method after appropriate sample preparation (pH adjustment and centrifugation) and using optimized amperometric p rocedure (acetate buffer pH 4.50, working potential -0.75 V) by Pt-MWCNT/CPE as a working electrode. RSD for three repeated measurements was 2.5%, while the recovery of the method was a bit higher than 71%. The composite materials consisting of MWCNT and Pd (Pd-MWCNT) or Pt containing particles (Pt-WCNT) were applied to the preparation of bulk- modified SPCEs (Pd-MWCNTSPCE and Pt-MWCNT-SPCE) and surface modifiedSPCE (Pd- MWCNT/SPCE). These electrodes, as well as unmodified SPCE and MWCNT-SPCE, were characterized by CV and amperometry in phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.50 for the H 2 O2 determination. Pd-MWCNT-SPCE and PdMWCNT/SPCEare convenient for the etermination of H 2O2 at working potentials from -0.50 to 0.50 V, and Pt-MWCNT-SPCE at investigated working potentials in the range from -0.80 to 0.70 V. These electrodes were then modified with glucose oxidase (GOx) by drop coating a solution of GOxand Nafion ® on their surface, whereby the applied amount of biococktail was optimized. GOx/PdMWCNT-SPCE showed better analytical performance for glucose determination in comparison with GOx/Pd-MWCNT/SPCE. The optimal working potential for GOx/Pd-MWCNT- SPCE was -0.40 V vs. SCE and satisfactory linearity was obtained in the investigated glucose concentration range from 0.16 to 0.97 mmol L -1 (from 29.1 to 174 µg mL -1 ), hile the LOQ was 0.14 mmol L -1 (25 µg mL -1 ). The optimized method based on GOx/Pd-MWCNT-SPCE was successfully applied to the determination of glucose in multifloral honey sample. The results are in a good agreement with those obtained by commercially available equipment for determination of glucose. Optimal working potential for GOx/Pt-MWCNT-SPCE was -0.50 V vs. SCE, and the satisfactory linearity was obtained in the investigated concentration range ofglucose from 65.8 to 260.6 µg mL -1 , with LOQ of 35 µg mL -1 . The optimized method based on GOx/Pt- MWCNT-SPCE was successfully applied for determination of glucose in white grape and glucose tablets (Traubenzucker-bonbons) samples, whereby the obtained results were in a good agreement with the results obtained by Accu-Chek device. Based on the results, the developed analytical methods are first of all simple, reliable and suitable for obtaining fast information about the content of H 2O2 in different types of samples. Certainly the selection of a suitable working electrode, as well as the optimization of experimental conditions are key factors for the successful determination of H2O2 .

Texte intégralThe procedure of conditional discrimination Matching - to - Sample is used in studies that experimentally investigate the relationship involved in \"reading\" and, more specifically, examine the possibilities of emergence of new relationships from which they were directly trained. However for a proficient reading it is necessary to read under control of smaller units than the word, so that the reading behavior under the control by minimal units could emerge. The majority of researches in this area have been carried out with training and recombinative testing of the whole words. Reading behavior under control by the minimal units in these studies generally appears after the training of at least three sets of words. The objective of this study therefore was to investigate the possibility of an increase in speed of acquisition of control by smaller units and to reduce variabilitys performance in recombinative reading through the direct training of a repertoire of four monosyllabic words. Two experiments were conducted: in the first one, four children were from three years and ten months old to five years old. The originals experimental stimuli (all ABC) was NO, PE, PA and LU and the deriveds experimental stimuli (all A\'B\'C \') were LUPA, PANO, PAPA and LULU. The results showed that all four participants showed variability in performance and no emergence of recombinative reading . A second experiment were carried out withthe manipulation of variables that possibly interfered in the performance of the participants. In this second experiment three children were involved, four of which were exposed to the previous experiment. The original experimental stimuli (all ABC) were BO, BA, LA and LO and derived (all A\'B\'C \') were BABO, BOBA, LALO and LOLA. As a result, two of the three participants showed recombinative reading and the variability in performance of these participants wassmaller than in previous studies. The partition of the stimulus was considered an important variable for the functional independence of syllables and subsequent emergence of recombinative reading. Thus, the monosyllabic training was effective to increase the speed of acquisition and to reduce the variability in performance of recombinative reading for participants.

Texte intégralEarly childhood is a crucial period for the development of emotion understanding (e.g. emotion recognition and emotion situation knowledge), theory of mind (e.g. diverse-desire and diverse-belief understanding), and language abilities. These competences are believed to influence prosocial behavior, which includes helping, sharing, and comforting. Nonetheless, a few studies have focused on the relationship among these competences in 2- and 3-year-olds. Furthermore, some associations have been neglected, for instance prosocial behavior in relation to diverse-desire understanding, true-belief, and receptive language. Then, most studies on prosocial behavior have used parent-reports, whereas observations in naturalistic contexts have been rarely carried out. Hence, the aim of the current study was to deepen the relationship among these skills, controlling also for age and gender, and to examine whether emotion understanding, theory of mind, and receptive language determined prosocial behaviors. Participants were 149 Italian children aged 24-47 months of age (M = 35.63 months; SD = 6.77), recruited through some day-care centers and kindergartens located in Northern Italy. A multi-method approach was used, so each child was directly administered some measures of emotion comprehension, theory of mind, and receptive vocabulary, and observed twenty minutes at school in an unstructured context of free play with peers to detect the frequency of helping, sharing, and comforting. Results showed some significant links among emotion understanding, theory of mind, and receptive language. Helping behaviors significantly correlated with emotion situation knowledge and receptive language, even when age and gender were controlled. Together, emotion situation knowledge, receptive language, and their interactive effects as well as those with the diverse-desire understanding, controlling for age and gender, were valuable determinants of helping. Exploratory mediation analyses revealed that receptive language might be a significant mediator in the relation between emotion situation knowledge and helping behaviors. The implications of findings are discussed.

Texte intégralWhile research into children’s subjective well-being (SWB) has advanced over the past decade, there is a paucity of cross-cultural research, particularly in South Africa. Moreover, while the adaptation and validation of instruments in English and Afrikaans are evident, other language groups have not received much attention. This study aimed to provide structural validation of the Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale across a sample of children in South Africa using multi-group analysis across three language groups (Setswana, Xitsonga, and Tshivenda). Within this process, the study aimed to use multi-group confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) to compare the structural validity and measurement invariance of the three language groups. Finally, the study aimed to determine the convergent validity of the three language groups of the SLSS by regressing them onto the single-item Overall Life Satisfaction Scale (OLS). The study uses data from Wave 3 of the South African Children’s Worlds Study and included a sample of 625 children across the language groups (Setswana: n = 187; Sesotho: n = 170; and Tshivenda: n = 268). For the overall pooled sample an excellent fit was obtained for a single-factor model, including one error-covariance. Standardised regression weights of the items ranged between .43 and .73. MGCFA revealed an acceptable fit for the configural model (unconstrained loadings); however, metric (constrained loadings) and scalar invariance (constrained loadings and intercepts) was not tenable. However, through the application of partial constraints metric invariance was tenable when Item 5 (I like my life) was freely estimated, while scalar invariance was tenable when Item 1 (I enjoy my life) and Item 5 (I like my life) were freely estimated. The results suggest that the Items: My life is going well; I have a good life; The things in my life are excellent; and I am happy with my life, are comparable by correlations, regression coefficients, and latent mean scores across the three language groups. Convergent validity using the OLS was obtained for the pooled sample and across the language groups. The key contribution of the study is establishing that the Setswana, Sesotho, and Tshivenda translated and adapted versions of the SLSS are valid for use within the South African context to measure children’s SWB, and that they can be grouped together in an overall pooled sample.

Texte intégralThe objective of this study was to investigate if the combinatorial reading emergence, from an initial direct training with syllables, via monosyllables words, would produce the discrimination of smaller units in an ulterior training (with others disyllables words) promoting the identification of syllables units and posterior emergence of recombinative reading under control of this components. Participated 10 typical children aged 4 to 5 years. The procedure consisted in 12 phases subdivided in pre-tests; training, tests, constructedresponse tasks and post-tests in which the participants were exposed twice in sequence: Stage I and II. Each stage presented a distinct set of training and tests stimuli. In the Stage I the stimuli were divided in two experimental conditions each with five participants: Condition M (training of Monosyllable words) and Condition D (training of Dissyllable words). The test words were the same for both conditions. The difference was that participants of Condition M had the combinatorial reading measured while the participants of Condition D participants had the recombinative reading measured. In the Stage II all the participants were exposed to the same training and test sets of the disyllables words. Auditory-visual relations between dictated words (Set A), print words (Set C) and their respective pictures (Set B) were trained. Subsequently, oral and comprehension reading of the training and the test words was tested. The latter were formed by combination (Condition M in Stage I) and recombination (Condition D in Stage I and all participants at the Stage II) of the minimal units of the training words. The results showed that only that participants exposed to Condition M, presented recombinative reading in the Stage II. Thus, the differential response to syllabic units produced by monosyllabic words training and the emergence of combinatorial reading in the Stage I facilitated the acquisition of minimal units and recombinative oral reading at the Stage II. Data suggest that behavioral process involved in Combinatorial and Recombinative Reading is the same: stimuli discrimination. Consequently, it was observed that a previous history in differentially respond to syllabic units (combinatorial reading) could favor the differential respond to elements that composed the words whatever the elements are (syllabic propriety of portuguese language) increasing the speed of acquisition of recombinative performance
