Повний текст джерелаIn this thesis, we study the role of visual attention when an expert reader acquires new orthographic lexical knowledge. Our contribution is twofold. On the one hand, we develop an original computational, probabilistic model of orthographic learning. Our model, named BRAID-Learn, is an extension of BRAID, a hierarchical probabilistic model of visual word recognition and lexical decision. On the other hand, we gather original experimental data on the evolution of eye movements during incidental learning of new orthographic forms and demonstrate the ability of the model to account for these observations. Our contribution is described in three articles.In the first article, we simulate the length effect as experimentally observed for words in lexical decision in the French Lexicon Project. Through 5 simulations, we show that visual attention modulates the length effect and that several attentional fixations during the processing of long words (7 letters or more) reduces the length effect, instead of accentuating it. This study allows us to calibrate the parameters of the lexical decision sub-model of our learning model.The second article focuses on the experimental study of oculomotor behavior of expert adult readers during the incidental learning of new words. We show that the number of fixations and processing duration vary according to the number of exposures to a novel word, testifying to the progressive strengthening of its orthographic representation in memory. Exploratory data suggest that orthographic learning and oculomotor behaviors are also modulated by the visual-attentional abilities of the participants.In the third and final article, we present the learning model BRAID-Learn and test its ability to account for previously described oculomotor data in orthographic learning conditions. The model is based on two original hypotheses. The first is that the system controls the visual-attentional parameters in order to optimize the accumulation of perceptual information on letters of the stimulus and, therefore, to efficiently build a new orthographic trace during learning. The second hypothesis is that lexical familiarity, that is, the probability that the stimulus presented is a known word, modulates the top-down influence of lexical representations on letter perception. We show that the model successfully reproduces the observations, namely the decrease of the number of fixations as well as processing duration for novel words across exposures.BRAID-Learn is the first orthographic learning model to establish an explicit link between orthographic learning and eye movements observed during the incidental orthographic learning. Another contribution of this thesis is to show and clarify the role of visual attention in orthographic learning, suggesting that this dimension could be strongly involved in the transition from serial reading, that characterizes learning readers, to global reading, that characterizes expert readers

Повний текст джерелаIncludes bibliographical references.
The North Atlantic right whale, Eubalaena glacialis, one of the most critically endangered whales in the world, is subject to high anthropogenic mortality. Vessel-whale collisions and entanglement in fishing gear were indicated in 27 (67.5%) of the 40 right whales necropsied between 1970 and December 2006. Of those, at least 9 deaths (22.5%) resulted from blunt contact with a vessel. To reduce the likelihood of fatal collisions, speed restrictions are being considered for vessels traversing critical habitat, although the effects of speed on collision outcomes have not been specifically evaluated from a biomechanics perspective. The ultimate goal of a larger collaborative project is to evaluate the efficacy of speed restrictions for reducing blunt collision mortality using a multi-scale finite element model. Complete, transverse fracture of the right whale mandible, an injury seen only in right whales killed by vessels, is used as a proxy for mortality in the model. Vital for that model are the material properties and biomechanical behavior of the right whale mandible. Here, the internal structure and physical properties of right whale jawbone tissue are reported. The average apparent densities, 0.4258 g/cc ±0.0970 and 1.2370 g/cc ±0.0535 for trabecular and cortical bone respectively, indicate that the bone is of relatively low density. Average ash content for trabecular bone (64.38% ±1.1330) is comparable with values from other species, indicating that low density results from a reduction of bone mass, not mineralization. Mechanical properties of right whale bone (Young's modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio) were determined via uniaxial compression testing.
(cont.) These data are incorporated into the finite element model simulating different loading conditions (e.g. vessel speeds) that likely lead to mandibular failure and thereby mortality from blunt vessel collisions. Model results (e.g. risk of fracture) are used to determine the effect of speed restrictions on collision outcomes.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis investigates the transition from babble to first words in order to verify if there is continuity between the periods and identify templates. This work follows the theoretical approach to the study of development Dynamic Systems Theory (THELEN; SMITH, 1994; Kelso, 1995) and its view that the development is characterized by change, instability, variability and non linearity. The term dynamical systems, in its most generic form, means systems of elements that change over time (THELEN; SMITH, 2006, p. 258). The Whole- Word/Templatic Phonology approach is followed in the analysis of child data (VIHMAN; VELLEMAN, 2002; VIHMAN; CROFT, 2007; KEREN-PORTNOY et al., 2008). The innovative aspect of this thesis is that it relates the (des)continuity in the transition from babble to words to templates, i.e., systematic shapes that facilitate expansion of the lexicon (VIHMAN; VELLEMAN, 2000). Furthermore, this research uses quantitative method for the identification of templates. The previous literature used only qualitative methods of data collection (VIHMAN; VELLEMAN, 2002; VIHMAN; CROFT, 2007; KEREN-PORTNOY et al., 2008; WAUQUIER; YAMAGUCHI; 2012; KHATTAB; AL-TAMINI, 2012; SZREDER, 2012, among others). Thus, this research contributes by presenting a quantitative study and by observing templates behaviour through early phonological development. Data from three children aged 9 24 months are analysed. In the analysis, non linearity and instability are observed in the phonological development. In regard to the discussion on (des)continuity, the results do not present many evidences in favour of continuity. Although babble and words are produced in the same session, the two types of production show more phonological differences than similarities. The conclusion is that continuity between babble and words cannot be verified if it is assumed that phonological and phonetic aspects work independently from one another. The continuity can 10 be verified if these two modules are integrated as Articulatory /Gestural Phonology (BROWMAN; GOLDSTEIN, 1986; ALBANO, 2001) and Usage- Based Phonology/Exemplar Theory (CRISTÓFARO-SILVA, 2003) propose. The results show that different children produce similar phonological structures in their phonological development, e.g., word length, syllable structure, among others; which follow the characteristics of the target language. However, differences are found in the transition from babble to words in relation to the strategies used for lexical expansion, i.e., the use of different templates as the order of use and disuse of templates. This study observes that moments of self-organization tend to vary from child to child in the development of phonology.

Повний текст джерелаThis dissertation considers the manner in which the thematic and stylistic interests displayed in E. L. Doctorow's fiction derive from the postmodern context in which he works. Encapsulating the spirit of subversion so typical of postmodernism, Doctorow not only questions established modes of perception, but reinvigorates cultural and social traditions through the reformulation of customarily unchallenged norms and values. Departing from the conventions of traditional narrative, he emphasises the need for a continual critical interrogation and revision of absolutist grand narratives in order to achieve a more complex understanding of human experience. He grapples with concepts relating to the fluidity of meaning and the constructed nature of texts, deftly experimenting with narrative form in order to destabilise conventional perceptions of history, reality and representation.

To maintain the benefits of group membership, social animals need mechanisms to stay together and reunite if separated. This thesis explores the acoustic signals that dolphins use to overcome this challenge and mediate their complex relationships in a dynamic 3D environment. Bottlenose dolphins are the most extensively studied toothed whale, but research on acoustic behavior has been limited by an inability to identify the vocalizing individual or measure inter-animal distances in the wild. This thesis resolves these problems by simultaneously deploying acoustic tags on closely-associated pairs of known animals. These first reported deployments of acoustic tags on dolphins allowed me to characterize temporal patterns of vocal behavior on an individual level, uncovering large variation in vocal rates and inter-call waiting time between animals. Looking more specifically at signature whistles, a type of call often linked to cohesion, I found that when one animal produced its own signature whistle, its partner was more likely to respond with its own whistle. To better evaluate potential cohesion functions for signature whistles, I then modeled the probability of an animal producing a signature whistle at different times during a temporary separation and reunion from its partner. These data suggest that dolphins use signature whistles to signal a motivation to reunite and to confirm identity prior to rejoining their partner. To examine how cohesion is maintained during separations that do not include whistles, I then investigated whether dolphins could keep track of their partners by passively listening to conspecific echolocation clicks. Using a multi-pronged approach, I demonstrated that the passive detection range of echolocation clicks overlaps with the typical separation ranges of Sarasota mother-calf pairs and that the amount of time since an animal was last able to detect a click from its partner helped explain its probability of producing a signature whistle. Finally, this thesis developed a portable stereo camera system to study cohesion in situations where tagging is not possible. Integrating a GPS receiver, an attitude sensor and 3D stereo photogrammetry, the system rapidly positions multiple animals, grounding behavioral observations in quantitative metrics and characterizing fine-scale changes that might otherwise be missed.

Many species of whales migrate annually between high-latitude feeding grounds and low-latitude breeding grounds. Yet, very little is known about how these animals navigate during these migrations. This thesis takes a first look at the roles of geomagnetic and acoustic cues in humpback whale navigation and orientation, in addition to documenting some effects of human-produced sound on beaked whales. The tracks of satellite-tagged humpback whales migrating from Hawaii to Alaska were found to have systematic deviations from the most direct route to their destination. For each whale, a migration track was modeled using only geomagnetic inclination and intensity as navigation cues. The directions in which the observed and modeled tracks deviated from the direct route were compared and found to match for 7 out of 9 tracks, which suggests that migrating humpback whales may use geomagnetic cues for navigation. Additionally, in all cases the observed tracks followed a more direct route to the destination than the modeled tracks, indicating that the whales are likely using additional navigational cues to improve their routes. There is a significant amount of sound available in the ocean to aid in navigation and orientation of a migrating whale. This research investigates the possibility that humpback whales migrating near-shore listen to sounds of snapping shrimp to detect the presence of obstacles, such as rocky islands. A visual tracking study was used, together with hydrophone recordings near a rocky island, to determine whether the whales initiated an avoidance reaction at distances that varied with the acoustic detection range of the island. No avoidance reaction was found. Propagation modeling of the snapping shrimp sounds suggested that the detection range of the island was beyond the visual limit of the survey, indicating that snapping shrimp sounds may be suited as a long-range indicator of a rocky island. Lastly, this thesis identifies a prolonged avoidance reaction of a Blainville's beaked whale to playbacks of Navy mid-frequency active sonar and orca predation calls. Navy sonar exercises have been linked to beaked whale strandings, and identifying whether these are the result of a mistaken predator avoidance reaction may help prevent future strandings.

Abstract : Interest in research and teaching on learning strategies (Oxford, 2003) for listening development in foreign language acquisition has increased over the past decade. Among the strategies discussed in the literature is reading while listening, in which the learner reads and listens simultaneously for example to songs along with lyrics, watch movies with subtitles in the foreign language, and listens to audiobooks following the written texts. The latter is the matter of discussion in this study. Following the predictions from reading strategies (Woodall, 2010; Montgomery, 2009; Chen, 2004; Harris & Casbergue, 1996) and teaching of listening (Chang, 2009; Brown, Waring & Donkaewbua, 2008) research, this study focused on investigating whether the aforementioned strategy would be of any advantage for listening and reading comprehension of intermediate level learners of English in terms of text comprehension, spoken word recognition and delayed word recall. Studies have suggested that by having contact with both input forms together, the recognition of spoken words can be enhanced, considering learners have the opportunity to gain awareness of spoken and written form relations, resulting in more effective word recognition and segmentation (Chang, 2009). In addition, it has been proposed that by reading while listening simultaneously, text comprehension is boosted, for studies in L1 thoroughly support that phonology plays a role in reading related cognitive processes (Ehri, 2005). This phonological knowledge is limited in a foreign language, thus the strategy could help to develop more efficient reading and parsing processes. Memory of words would also be increased, for the reason that words could be secured in long term memory permanently due to more information from different sources (Brown et al, 2008). Together, these predictions are the core hypotheses tested in the study. A within-subject design research was carried out. Three excerpts of contemporary science fiction short stories (Hamilton, 2013) and their correspondent unabridged audiobooks were selected for data collection. Narrative texts were selected because (1) audiobooks of stories are more popular than other text genres, (2) narrative texts may contribute for the development of listening and reading skills by promoting extensive reading and listening (Lao & Krashen, 2000; Woodall, 2010; Chang, 2009) and (3) narrative structure has cognitive processing advantage, thus any observable effect would not be related to text processing difficulty Graesser, Golding & Long, 1996; DuBravac & Dalle, 2002). Three conditions were compared, reading while listening (LR), reading only (RO) and listening only (LO). A questionnaire assessed learners? language learning profiles. Three language tasks were administered: (1) a comprehension task, (2) a spoken word recognition task that measured reaction time and accuracy, and a (3) free delayed word recall task. Finally, a second questionnaire assessed learners? opinions concerning the strategy. Results did not show any statistically significant difference between conditions in any of the language tasks. The qualitative analysis however, showed that the unanimity of learners preferred reading while listening as an effective language learning strategy. Overall this study suggests that in terms of immediate gains to the comprehension of texts, recognition of spoken words and word recall for intermediate level learners, reading while listening is no better than reading only and listening only. In terms of learner perception, however, the strategy is well received and it can be used to promote vocabulary learning and extensive listening and reading in a foreign language.
O interesse em estratégias de aprendizagem (Oxford, 2003) para o desenvolvimento da compreensão oral em lÃngua estrangeira tem aumentado, tanto na pesquisa quanto na pedagogia do ensino. Entre as estratégias discutidas na literatura está ler e ouvir simultaneamente, através da qual os aprendizes escutam e leem, por exemplo, músicas e suas respectivas letras, assistem filmes com áudio e legendas na lÃngua estrangeira, e ouvem audiolivros acompanhando o texto escrito. Esta última modalidade é o tema do presente trabalho. De acordo com as predições das pesquisas em estratégias de leitura (Woodall, 2010; Montgomery, 2009; Chen, 2004; Harris & Casbergue, 1996) e ensino da compreensão oral (Chang, 2009; Brown, Waring & Donkaewbua, 2008), esse estudo investiga se a estratégia mencionada proporciona algum ganho para a compreensão oral e a leitura de aprendizes de inglês como lÃngua estrangeira de nÃvel intermediário, em termos de compreensão de texto, reconhecimento da palavra falada e recordação tardia de palavras. Estudos sugerem que ao ter contato com as duas formas de input ao mesmo tempo, o reconhecimento de palavras faladas pode ser aprimorado, considerando que os aprendizes têm a chance de perceber melhor as relações entre formas orais e escritas, resultando assim em reconhecimento e segmentação da fala mais efetivos (Chang, 2009). Além disso, a compreensão de textos também pode ser potencializada, visto que estudos em lÃngua nativa estabeleceram fortemente que a fonologia desempenha um papel importante nos processos cognitivos atrelados à leitura (Ehri, 2005). O conhecimento fonológico tende a ser limitado numa lÃngua estrangeira, portanto, a estratégia auxiliaria a desenvolver a leitura e os processos de parsing de forma mais eficiente. A memória para as palavras também aumentaria, pois as palavras estariam consolidadas na memória de longo prazo devido à s informações de diferentes fontes (Brown et al, 2008). Em conjunto, essas predições são as hipóteses testadas neste trabalho. Um experimento com o design within-subject foi conduzido. Trechos de três histórias de ficção cientÃfica (Hamilton, 2013) e seus respectivos audiolivros foram utilizados para a coleta de dados. Textos narrativos foram selecionados porque (1) audiolivros de histórias são mais populares dos que os de outros gêneros textuais, (2) narrativas podem contribuir para o desenvolvimento da compreensão oral e leitura por promover a prática extensiva de ambas (Lao & Krashen, 2000; Woodall, 2010; Chang, 2009) e (3) a estrutura das narrativas proporciona vantagens cognitivas de processamento, assim, qualquer efeito observado não estaria diretamente ligado à dificuldade inerente à estrutura do texto (Graesser, Golding & Long, 1996; DuBravac & Dalle, 2002). Foram comparadas três condições, ler e ouvir, ler somente e ouvir somente. Um questionário levantou dados sobre o perfil de aprendizagem de lÃnguas dos participantes. Três tarefas linguÃsticas foram administradas: (1) tarefas de compreensão de texto; (2) tarefas de reconhecimento da palavra falada, que media o tempo de reação e a acurácia, e (3) uma tarefa de recordação tardia e livre de palavras. Um segundo questionário sondou as opiniões dos participantes com relação à s histórias, à s estratégias e à experiência na pesquisa. Os resultados não mostraram nenhuma diferença estatisticamente significativa entre as condições nas tarefas linguÃsticas. A análise qualitativa, contudo, apontou que a unanimidade dos aprendizes preferiu ler e ouvir ao mesmo tempo como uma estratégia efetiva para a aprendizagem de lÃnguas. De modo geral, este estudo sugere que em termos de ganhos imediatos para a compreensão de texto, o reconhecimento da palavra falada e recordação de palavras tardia, em aprendizes de nÃvel intermediário, ler e ouvir ao mesmo tempo não é melhor que ler somente e até ouvir somente. Em termos de percepções dos aprendizes, entretanto, a estratégia é bem recebida e pode ser usada para promover a aprendizagem de vocabulário, a compreensão oral e leitura extensivas numa lÃngua estrangeira.

Despite widespread concerns about the effects of anthropogenic noise on baleen whales (suborder Mysticeti), we lack basic information about their auditory physiology for comprehensive risk assessments. Hearing ranges and sensitivities could be measured if customized equipment and methods were developed based on how baleen whales receive sound. However, sound reception pathways in baleen whales are currently unknown. This thesis presents an integrative approach to understanding hearing in baleen whales through dissections, biomedical imaging, biochemical analyses, and modeling sound propagation through a whale head using the Finite Element Method (FEM). We focused on the minke whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) because it is one of the smallest and most abundant mysticete species, reducing logistical difficulties for dissections and experiments. We discovered a large, well-formed fat body extending from the blubber region to the ears and contacting the ossicles. Although odontocetes, or toothed whales, are thought to use specialized "acoustic fats" for sound reception, no such tissues had been described for mysticetes to date. Our study indicates that the basic morphology and biochemical composition of the minke whale "ear fats" are very different from those of odontocete acoustic fats. However, the odontocete and mysticete fatty tissues share some characteristics, such as being conserved even during starvation, containing fewer dietary signals compared to blubber, and having well-defined attachments to the tympano-periotic complex, which houses the middle and inner ears. FE models of the whale head indicated that the ear fats caused a slight increase in the total pressure magnitude by the ears, and this focusing effect could be attributed to the low density and low sound speed of the ear fats in the models. Fatty tissues are known to have lower densities and sound speeds than other types of soft tissues, which may explain why they are an important component of the auditory system of odontocetes, and perhaps mysticete cetaceans as well. In an aquatic habitat where the pinna and air-filled ear canal are no longer effective at collecting and focusing so'und towards the ears, we propose that both odontocete and mysticete cetaceans have incorporated fatty tissues into their auditory systems for underwater sound reception.

Studying the social and cultural transmission of behavior among animals helps to identify patterns of interaction and information content flowing between individuals. Killer whales are likely to acquire traits culturally based on their population-specific feeding behaviors and group-distinctive vocal repertoires. I used digital tags to explore the contributions of individual Norwegian killer whales to group carousel feeding and the relationships between vocal and non-vocal activity. Periods of tail slapping to incapacitate herring during feeding were characterized by elevated movement variability, heightened vocal activity and call types containing additional orientation cues. Tail slaps produced by tagged animals were identified using a rapid pitch change and occurred primarily within 20m of the surface. Two simultaneously tagged animals maneuvered similarly when tail slapping within 60s of one another, indicating that the position and composition of the herring ball influenced their behavior. Two types of behavioral sequence preceding the tight circling of carousel feeding were apparent. First, the animals engaged in periods of directional swimming. They were silent in 2 of 3 instances, suggesting they may have located other foraging groups by eavesdropping. Second, tagged animals made broad horizontal loops as they dove in a manner consistent with corralling. All 4 of these occasions were accompanied by vocal activity, indicating that this and tail slapping may benefit from social communication. No significant relationship between the call types and the actual movement measurements was found. Killer whale vocalizations traditionally have been classified into discrete call types. Using human speech processing techniques, I considered that calls are alternatively comprised of shared segments that can be recombined to form the stereotyped and variable repertoire.
(cont.) In a classification experiment, the characterization of calls using the whole call, a set of unshared segments, or a set of shared segments yielded equivalent performance. The shared segments required less information to parse the same vocalizations, suggesting a more parsimonious system of representation. This closer examination of the movements and vocalizations of Norwegian killer whales, combined with future work on ontogeny and transmission, will inform our understanding of whether and how culture plays a role in achieving population-specific behaviors in this species.

Повний текст джерелаDr. Eleine Mad is Madeleine Jacobsson's spokesperson for the scientific and paranormal discoveries that arise in her worlds. She describes content, tecniques and aesthetics based on a categorization system where art is divided into different types of components and then decoded as they go. To understand the intuition's involvement in the work process, it is transformed into three separate roles by a Seeker, Collector and a Myntare(In swedish language the one who is a "myntare" -is verbally declaring a concept or term). With these roles I try to describe in what ways intuition is beneficial or devastating to the artistic work. The story of M is about a frog-like character, Delop, who leaves the home planet to seek out other worlds. In her search, Delop finds a world whose views and lifestyles differ from her experiences of "reality" as she learned to survive in it.

Picture book awards are of central interest in the context of picture books popularizing in Taiwan. A principal aim of the picture book award is to encourage creative works of illustrators and writers to create quality works. Criteria for the award are usually art-and-literature-oriented. Unfortunately, there have been few picture book awards which focus on the construction of social value and the consideration of minority groups. The “Love Makes Whole” Children’s Literature Award have been awarded by the Noordhoff Craniofacial Foundation for twelve years. All the award winning books were created by child authors. The goal of this award is to encourage picture books which show consideration for the physically or mentally disabled. Both quality and quantity of the works are abundant. The aim of this paper is threefold: (a) to convey the thoughts of the physically or mentally disabled and to make the people show respect for them; (b) to discuss the words and images of the works and to understand the form and the representation of the works; (c) to understand the condition of children as contestants and to make suggestions for teachers, parents, publishers, illustrators and following researchers. The method to carry out this study was using a textual analysis, which included content analysis and image analysis. The aim of content analysis in this study is to analyze subjects, characters and viewpoints of stories. The purpose of image analysis is to analyze layout designs, media, techniques and color planning of those award-winning works. This study showed the results of this award were: (a) the works show humanistic consideration for the physically or mentally disabled children and minority groups; (b) contents and images of the works operated in coordination and the forms were multiple, entertaining and creative. The results of the present study suggest three dimensions: (a) the award-winning works should fulfill the purpose of this award; (b) the terms of the award should set certain limit for participants; (c) the subjects of the works should be further implemented and popularized by educational workers.
