Letsou, Christina. "Preferences for Randomization in Social Choice:." Thesis, Boston College, 2020. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/bc-ir:108719.
Повний текст джерелаThis dissertation consists of three chapters analyzing preferences for randomization in social choice problems. The first two chapters are related and in the fields of distributive justice and social choice. They concern allocation of an indivisible good in social choice problems where efficiency is at odds with equality. The last chapter addresses a social choice problem from an individual's perspective using decision theoretical analysis. In this dissertation I demonstrate why randomization may be an attractive policy in social choice problems and demonstrate how individuals may have preferences over the precise method of randomization. The first chapter is titled "Live and Let Die." This paper discusses how to allocate an indivisible good by social lottery when agents have asymmetric claims. Intuition suggests that there may exist agents who should receive zero probability in the optimal social lottery. In such a case, I say that these agents have weak claims to the good. This paper uses a running example of allocating an indivisible medical treatment to individuals with different survival rates and reactions to the treatment in order to provide conditions for consistency of weak claims. As such, I develop two related assumptions on a social planner's preferences over lotteries. The first -- survival rate scaling -- states that if an individual has a weak claim, then his claim is also weak when survival rates increase proportionally. The second -- independence of weak claims -- states that if an individual has a weak claim, then his removal does not affect others' probabilities of receiving the treatment. These assumptions imply that a compatible social welfare function must exhibit constant elasticity of substitution, which results in potentially-degenerate weighted lotteries. The second chapter is titled "Why is Six Afraid of Seven? Bringing the "Numbers" to Economics." This chapter discusses the numbers problem: the question of if the numbers of people involved should be used to determine whether to help certain people or to help certain other people. I discuss the main solutions that have been proposed: flipping a coin, saving the greater number, and proportionally weighted lotteries. Using the economic tools of social choice, I then show how the model of the previous chapter, "Live and Let Die," can be extended to address numbers problems and compare the implications of prominent social welfare functions for numbers problems. I argue that potentially-degenerate weighted lotteries can assuage the main concerns discussed in the literature and I show that both the Nash product social welfare function as well as constant elasticity of substitution (CES) social welfare functions are compatible with this solution. Finally, I discuss a related problem known as "probability cases," in which individuals differ in survival chances rather than numbers of individuals at risk. When the model is extended to allow for both asymmetries in survival chances and numbers of individuals in groups, CES results in potentially-degenerate weighted lotteries whereas Nash product does not. The third chapter is titled "All Probabilities are Equal, but Some Probabilities are More Equal than Others," which is joint work with Professor Uzi Segal of the Economics Department at Boston College and Professor Shlomo Naeh of the Departments of Talmud and Jewish Thought at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In this chapter we compare preferences for different procedures of selecting people randomly. A common procedure for selecting people is to have them draw balls from an urn in turn. Modern and ancient stories (for example, by Graham Greene and the Talmud) suggest that such a lottery may not be viewed by the individuals as "fair.'' In this paper, we compare this procedure with several alternatives. These procedures give all individuals equal chance of being selected, but have different structures. We analyze these procedures as multi-stage lotteries. In line with previous literature, our analysis is based on the observation that multi-stage lotteries are not considered indifferent to their probabilistic one-stage representations. As such, we use a non-expected utility model to understand the preferences of risk-averse individuals over these procedures and show that they may be not indifferent between them

Повний текст джерелаThis dissertation deals with what in Swedish schools is called ”Språkval Engelska”. It will be refered to as Language Choice English in the ongoing text. My interest was aroused after having experienced this controversial subject as a student teacher. I found that different schools work with the subject in different ways. There is no clear syllabus for the subject since the grading is a part of the ordinary English grade. Language Choice English is an option for those who do not want to choose French, German or Spanish as Language Choice. The idea is that the subject is meant for those who cannot cope with yet another language and who need extra support in English. This study shows that not only the so-called weak pupils choose to study Language Choice English. There has been a mismanagement of the subject since so many pupils who are good at English choose it out of convenience and for tactical reasons. The idea of only letting those pupils, who actually need more support choose it, has been lost. Four different secondary schools have been investigated concerning how Language Choice English is organized. I learned that all of these schools have different organizations. The method I used was formal interviews with six different teachers at four different schools. The results of the interviews show that at some schools the subject works well. At other schools it does not. The reasons for this seem to be many. Reasons such as low status of the subject, large and heterogeneous groups and pupils and teachers who are unmotivated can be mentioned.

Повний текст джерелаGiven the huge quantity of data currently being generated, just a small portion of it can be manually labeled by human experts. This is a challenge for machine learning applications. Semi-supervised learning addresses this problem by handling unlabeled data alongside labeled ones. However, if only a limited quantity of labeled examples is available, the performance of the machine learning task (e.g., classification) can be very unsatisfactory. Many solutions address this issue by using a classifier ensemble because this increases diversity. Algorithms such as co-training and tri-training use multiple views or multiple learning algorithms in order to improve the classification of unlabeled instances through simple majority agreement. Also, there are approaches that extend this idea and adopt less trivial voting processes to define the labels, like weighted majority voting. Nevertheless, these solutions require some confidence level on the label in order to use it for training. Hence, not all information is used, i.e., information associated with low confidence level is disregarded completely. An approach called social-training is proposed, which uses all information available in the semi-supervised learning task. For this, multiple heterogeneous classifiers are trained with the labeled data and generate diverse classifications for the same unlabeled instances. Social-training then aggregates these results into a single label by means of social choice functions that work with rank aggregation over the instances. The solution addresses binary classification cases. The results show that working with the full ranking, i.e., labeling all unlabeled instances, is able to reduce the classification error for some UCI data sets used.

Повний текст джерелаThe information concerning the social-environmental impact of the product and the of the producers performance are necessary for the exercise of the sustainable consumption. The knowledge of the social-environmental impacts of the life cycle impact of the product is a requisite for the free choice of the consumers for products that present positive social-environmental impacts in any of these phases of its cycle of life. One of the instruments for the reach of the sustainable development is to make possible the consumption of products that use less finite resources of the nature and that they bring social improvements as its consequences. In Brazil, is possible to conclude that the legal system establishes the inclusion of the social-environmental data of the product in the information propagated to the consumer. Brazilian Constitution imposes the guarantee of access to the information, the consumer protection and the right of the preservation of the environment, as well as the dignity of the person human being. The social function of the companies, based in the constitutional principle of the social function of the property also justifies the duty of propagation of the referring data to the social-environmental impact of its products and concerning the social-environmental behavior of the company. In the legislative basis, there are strong rules concerning information in the Code of Defense of the Consumer and the environmental legislation. The propagation of these data benefits to the competition, creating incentives to the companies improving the means of production to attract the consumers that opt to sustainable products. The duties of clarity and veracity, attached with the good-faith principle established by Civil Code and Consumer Defense Code, need to be observed in the propagation of this information to prevent the greenwashing, that it is the propagation of the false image of social-environmental concern to the product. The essentiality or utility of the information is the parameter for its propagation under the risk to occur its excess, which hinders the correct understanding of all the presented data. Until the risks of social-environmental impacts not yet proven, they fit to be informed in attention to the Precautionary Principle. The view of this information can and must occur by all means of communication used for the spreading of the products, standing out itself the paper of the labeling.

Повний текст джерелаThis dissertation investigates different social functions of agriculture as well as landscape aesthetics in farming systems of different agricultural structures. Throughout the whole project farming systems dominated by small family farms and large-scale farming systems dominated by commercial non-family farms (e.g. cooperatives) were compared. Farmers’ work satisfaction and their connection to the local community were examined in the small-scaled Swiss system and in the larger scaled Northeast (NE) German one. Public landscape preferences were derived using choice experiments in Switzerland and South Germany, representing small-scale systems, as well as in East Germany, representing a large-scaled one, to explore agriculture‘s aesthetic function. Swiss farmers are more satisfied with their agricultural work if for effects of farm structure (e.g. farm size) is controlled for. Farm income plays a significantly more important role for the work satisfaction of NE German farmers than for that of Swiss ones. Especially for Swiss farmers, farm diversification plays an important role, for example through a diversity of production lines or through non-agricultural activities like agrotourism. Further results show that Swiss farmers and farmers of smaller farms are more connected to their local communities through more locally focused social networks. Farmers of larger farms have their networks farther away from the farm and a weaker sense of belonging to their local community. A biographical bond to the farm also strenghtens the connection to the local community. Concerning public landscape preferences the majority of the Swiss and East German respondents generally prefers qualitative changes to landscapes (i.e. meadows for free range animal husbandry, meadow orchards and more biodiversity). Forest loss or changes in plot sizes of agricultural land and forests are nearly uniformly rejected in all regions.

Epilepsy is a brain dysfunction characterized by the repeated tendency of the brain to cause epileptic crisis and by the neurobiological, cognitive, psychological and social consequences of this condition. In these terms, the aim of this work is to determine the visual sensory threshold of children and adolescents who have and who do not have epilepsy, analyzing possible alterations in the form related to this dysfunction. The sensory threshold is defined as the smallest intensity of incentive a human being is capable of detecting. The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) is the inverse of the threshold curve of contrast (1/CSF). This way, the CSF is a tool that allows us to label the answer of SV to visual patterns in low, medium and high levels of contrast and evaluate possible sensorial alterations associated with the visual processing. The main idea is that the elevation or reduction of the CSF can happen deem to sensorial, cognitive and behavioral alterations. Twenty volunteers participated on this study, from both genders, between 7 and 17 years of age, 10 of whom nonepileptic and 10 epileptic (tonic-clonic crisis). All of them presented either normal or corrected visual accuracy and were distributed in groups that were equivalent in age. The resolutions were taken from the psychophysical forced-choice method, using the static sine wave gratings with spatial frequencies of 0.25, 2.0 and 8.0 cpd (cycles per degree of visual angle). During each experimental session, there were stimulus pares presented randomly (test stimulus and neutral), and the task of the participants was to choose always the test stimulus with one of the frequencies above. The criterion used was the one of three consecutive correct answers to low the contrast in one unity and just one mistake to increase the contrast in the same unity (20%). After each session, a sheet of results with the experimental situation was released and the six values of contrast were calculated by the reversions. The values of contrast obtained to each frequency were grouped in spreadsheets separated by condition (with or without epilepsy) and the big average was used as an estimative of the sensory threshold or of the sensibility to the contrast due to each spatial frequency tested. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) to repeated measures showed significant differences between the groups [F(1,238) = 11.80); p<0.01]. The analysis obtained with the help of the test posthoc Tukey HSD revealed a relevant dissimilarity only in the 0.25cpg (p<0.01)]. In other words, the results indicated an expressive alteration in the visual perception children and adolescents with epilepsy have.
A epilepsia é um distúrbio cerebral caracterizado pela predisposição persistente do cérebro para gerar crises epilépticas e pelas conseqüências neurobiológicas, cognitivas, psicológicas e sociais desta condição. Algumas pesquisas demonstram que distúrbios visuais são bastante freqüentes em pessoas com epilepsia. Nestes termos, o objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar o limiar sensório visual de crianças e adolescentes com e sem epilepsia, verificando possíveis alterações na percepção visual da forma relacionadas a este transtorno. O limiar sensório é definido como a menor intensidade de um estímulo que um ser humano é capaz de detectar. A função de sensibilidade ao contraste (FSC) é o inverso da curva de limiar de contraste (1/FSC). Assim, a FSC é uma ferramenta que permite caracterizar a resposta do SV para padrões visuais em níveis baixos, médios e altos de contraste e avaliar possíveis alterações sensoriais relacionadas ao processamento visual. A idéia principal é que a elevação ou redução da FSC pode está relacionada a alterações sensoriais, cognitivas e comportamentais. Participaram deste estudo, 20 voluntários de ambos os sexos com idades entre 7 e 17 anos, sendo 10 sem epilepsia e 10 com epilepsia (crises tônicoclônicas). Todos apresentavam acuidade visual normal ou corrigida e foram distribuídos pelos grupos atendendo ao critério de equivalência de idade. As medidas foram realizadas com o método psicofísico da escolha forçada, utilizando grade senoidal vertical estática com freqüências espaciais de 0,25; 2,0 e 8,0 cpg (ciclos por grau de ângulo visual). Durante cada sessão experimental, foram apresentados aleatoriamente pares de estímulos (estímulo de teste e neutro), e a tarefa dos participantes foi escolher sempre o estímulo de teste com uma das freqüências acima. O critério adotado foi o de três acertos consecutivos para diminuir o contraste em uma unidade, e apenas um erro para aumentar o contraste na mesma unidade (20%). Após cada sessão, o programa produzia uma folha de resultados com a situação experimental e os seis valores de contraste conseguidos pelas reversões. Os valores de contraste obtidos para cada freqüência foram agrupados em planilhas por condição (com e sem epilepsia) e a grande média foi utilizada como estimativa do limiar sensório ou da sensibilidade ao contraste em função de cada freqüência espacial testada. A análise de variância (ANOVA) para medidas repetidas mostrou diferenças significantes entre os dois grupos [F(1, 238) =11,80); p < 0,01]. Já a análise com o teste post-hoc Tukey HSD revelou diferença significante apenas na faixa de freqüências de 0,25 cpg (p < 0,01). Em termos gerais, os resultados demonstraram alteração significante na percepção visual da forma de crianças e adolescentes com epilepsia.

Повний текст джерелаThis research examines the casual conversation of children between the ages of five and six within social interactions in pretend plays. Herein, I show how a number of researchers face pretend play, its relevance to the child´s development and the importance of this experience to the nuclear self I attempt, at first, to point out the importance of social interaction, in this context, to the improvement of the child´s linguistic skills; secondly, I try to highlight the lexicogrammatical choices made by these children when setting the limits between reality and fantasy, those that reveal their pragmatic competence. For this reason, I fall back upon the theoretical frame of Functional Systemic Linguistics (Halliday 1994), with special emphasis on the interpersonal metafunction and also on casual conversation (Eggins & Slade, 1997). The analyses embrace the acts of speech, lexicogrammatical choices and pragmatic competence. The results suggest that five-to-six-year-old children are capable of providing information exchange and posing challenges for the negotiation of power during pretend play, and that the fantasy context is propitious for interaction practice, without the presence of an adult. Note the intertext that sets a new social and cultural context based on the relationship of values and beliefs that the interactants bring from their family circle. The construction of the social self involves the recognition of social roles and the assignment of these roles among the participants. The marking of the reality and fantasy reference frames is realized through verbs in the present and past tenses in all the analyzed texts, and the findings of Musatti & Orsolini (1993); Lodge (1979); Kaper (1980); James (1982) e Van Gessel-Hotcker (1989) corroborate it. In addition, the analyses show the children´s competence concerning the use of pragmatic features of language when it comes to the structural dimensions related to the turn-taking dynamics; social, as the mutual intention to topics of conversation; cognitive, as the interactants communicative intention; and linguistic, as the use of speech markers, verbs, and pronouns to connect
Este trabalho examina a conversa casual de crianças de 5 a 6 anos de idade em contextos de interação social na brincadeira de faz-de-conta. Mostro como os vários pesquisadores encaram a brincadeira de faz-de-conta, sua relevância para o desenvolvimento infantil e a importância dessa experiência para a formação do eu nuclear. Tento, em um primeiro momento, destacar a importância da interação social nesse contexto para o crescimento das habilidades lingüísticas da criança; em um segundo momento, tento ressaltar as escolhas léxico-gramaticais feitas pelas crianças ao marcar os limites entre a realidade e a fantasia, aquelas que denunciam sua competência pragmática. Para tanto, recorro ao arcabouço teórico da Lingüística Sistêmico Funcional (Halliday 1994), com especial enfoque na metafunção interpessoal, e também sobre a conversa casual (Eggins & Slade, 1997). As análises abrangem os atos de fala, as escolhas léxico-gramaticais e a competência pragmática. Os resultados sugerem que as crianças da faixa etária de 5 a 6 anos são capazes de proporcionar a troca de informações e oferecer desafios para a negociação do poder durante o jogo de faz-de-conta, e que o contexto de fantasia é propício ao exercício da interação, sem a presença do adulto. Note-se o intertexto que redesenha um contexto social e cultural baseado na filiação dos valores e crenças que os interactantes trazem do ambiente familiar e que constituem o contexto em que ocorrem as interações. A construção do eu social, envolve o reconhecimento de papéis sociais e a atribuição desses papéis entre os participantes. A marcação dos enquadres de referência da realidade e da fantasia é realizada pelo tempo verbal no presente e no pretérito, em todos os textos analisados, e corroboram os achados de (Musatti & Orsolini (1993); Lodge (1979); Kaper (1980); James (1982) e Van Gessel-Hotcker (1989) em uma perspectiva interlingüística. As análises revelam, ainda, a competência das crianças quanto ao uso de aspectos pragmáticos da linguagem nas dimensões da estrutura discursiva, como a dinâmica de tomada de turno; social, como a atenção mútua aos tópicos da conversa; cognitiva, como as intenções comunicativas dos interactantes; e lingüística, como o uso de marcadores de discurso, verbos, e pronomes para conectar as idéias

Повний текст джерелаHuntington's disease is accompanied by disturbances insocial behavior that disrupt inter-individual relationships.The aim of this thesis was to better understand these social disorders by examining the social cognition skills of people with the mutation or the neurogenic disease. Social cognition includes the recognition of the emotions of others, social knowledge and the theory of the mind, namely the ability to attribute to others emotional (feelings) or cognitive (intentions, beliefs) mental states. We studied social cognition in the presymptomatic and symptomatic phase of Huntington's disease using neuropsychological tests and morphological and functional neuroimaging. This work was carried out within the framework of a collaboration between the national center of reference for the neurogenic diseases of adults of the CHU of Angers and the platform of medical imaging Cyceron of Caen. This work aimed to better understand the social cognition disruptions accompanying Huntington's disease, their evolution and their neurobiological basis in order to improve our understanding of behavioral disorders accompanying this disease. We hope to be able to better contribute to the diagnosis, prognosis and care of those affected by this disease

Taking another angle to explore society when there are only two people and their preferences completely opposite, what form of social choice function can it be rationalized by the game tree? Firstly, it can be proved that any social choice function that conforms to linear ordering can be rationalized by two-person who with opposite preferences by game tree. It is worth noting that this is true for any number of alternatives. Second, to further sort out the example of "three alternatives in society", at this point, the social choice function has 24 possibilities, including linear ordering and looping. We proved all forms of social choice function can be the opposite preference of the two but not limited to the same two people rationalized by the game tree. Furthermore, even if the opposite preference of the two but limited to the same two people, as long as you face three alternatives at the same time, the social choice function is an option to choose a two-person ordering compromise, even a looping type of social choice function also can be rationalized by the game tree composed of the opposite preference of the two but limited to the same two people. So a social choice function that can be rationalized by the two people with the opposite preference use game tree not limited to the form of linear ordering, whether the conclusion of "two people, three alternatives" can be extended to any number of alternatives still requires follow-up research.

With the advances in medicine, the average ages of people increasing gradually. To encourage citizen keep learning, our government actively plans many courses for adult education, lifelong education, seniors education, community college..and so on. Join choir is one of learning courses can brings everyone to pursuit a quality life with no ages limitation. Yang Xin choir was established over thirteen year ago, the average age of members about 60 years old, I practice by joining many music activities, and arrange structured and semi-structured questionnaire to interview the way to understand the interaction between the chorus and the people, and records what benefits that choir brings to people, and further more to the social. The results show choir not only promote the personal artistic humanities, physical and mind health, but also forming a cooperation power among members virtually, especially for those retired members, singing can make them happy, and they present their concern via the songs, and find their self recognition. The charming power also affect the people around them and attract people around them to join together. In addition to the musical activities in the value of the activity itself, it should also have personal values and community values, family values and social function values, such as links with the community to create a phase, Moreover, it can promote a sense of community, community identity, community learning, and bring a happiness and joyful life.
