STATE PARTNERSHIPS TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF OLDER AMERICANS WITH LIFELONG DISABILITIES     

Daniel A. Quirk  Sara C. Aravanis 《Educational gerontology》2013,39(5):431-437

The Older Americans Act and its network of state and area agencies are dynamic mechanisms for human services. The “aging network” has entered a period of expanded policy arenas which require broader agendas and applications, from long‐term‐care systems development to assisting employers who are creating flexible work and retirement programs. It is appropriate for the aging and developmental disabilities networks to explore the intersections of their operations with respect to their methods of administration, advocacy, service systems development, and policies.  相似文献

An evaluation of two cognitive learning methods in adults on pre-qualification schemes: Logo and logical reasoning workshops (ARL)     

Daniel Chartier 《European Journal of Psychology of Education - EJPE》1996,11(4):443-457

Two groups of adults on AFPA pre-qualification training schemes were each exposed to a different programme, explicitly aimed at improving their cognitive skills: Ateliers de Raisonnement Logique/Logical Reasoning Workshops and Logo exercises. They were compared with a control group receiving special treatment, members being informed that they were participating in an experiment. This latter group was exposed, for an essentially similar period, to training in the use of office-work software and computer-assisted education. The three groups were tested, at the beginning and end of the scheme, on a number of cognitive dimensions. The level of self-esteem of participants, their attitude to computers and the internality of their attributions were also evaluated. Results showed: 1) a modest increase in cognitive efficiency in each group at the end of training and ambiguous variations in conative variables; 2) no superiority of the Logo group over the control group; 3) superiority of the ARL group for two cognitive variables of the ten studied (combinatory analysis and perceptive field independence). The extent of the difference was invariably less that one standard-deviation of the distribution of scores. These results, and in particular the absence of transfer of acquisitions, seem insufficient to justify the conclusion of any specific efficacy of this last method.  相似文献   

Light-induced cracking and abrasion of inkjet prints: Damage and mitigation     

Andrea Venosa  Daniel Burge  Eugene Salesin 《文物保护研究》2016,61(1):94-100

This study is part of a larger research project at the Image Permanence Institute dedicated to digital print preservation issues – the Digital Print Preservation Portal (DP3). Previous DP3 studies determined that certain digital print types are prone to cracking and/or abrasion, and that factors such as low relative humidity, pollutants, and light increase the brittleness of the ink-receiving layer of some inkjet papers. The purpose of this investigation was to explore if light also increases the propensity of inkjet prints to abrade, and to examine the potential of framing glazings to mitigate light-induced physical damage (cracking and abrasion) by attenuating some portion of the UV spectrum. Inkjet papers and prints were subjected to xenon lighting (to simulate daylight through window glass) without glazing, or in sealed framing packages with plain framing glass (soda-lime) or UV filtering glass. Before and after light exposure, brittleness, and abrasion resistance were evaluated independently using two tests: ISO 18907 (Imaging materials – Photographic films and papers – Wedge test for brittleness) and a rub test utilizing a Sutherland® Rub Tester. In this study, exposure to light increased the cracking and/or abrasion tendency of some specimens. The use of UV filtering glass reduced this light-induced propensity in all cases. Plain glass protected all samples from at least one of these two types of surface damage, but was less effective than UV glass. Light-induced brittleness and sensitivity to abrasion were mostly, though not exclusively, caused by UV radiation. It was also seen that some prints may become brittle and/or prone to abrasion in the absence of image fade. Budgeting the amount of light these objects can be exposed to, protecting them from UV radiation, and handling prints with caution especially after exhibition, is essential in order to limit physical damage.  相似文献   

The role of self-construal in moderating the advertising repetition effect: evidence from Korea     

Byung-Kwan Lee  YouNa Lee 《亚洲交流杂志》2016,26(2):174-193

This study explored the role of self-construal in moderating the effect of same- and varied-ad repetition on consumer response to advertising and brand on the basis of self-construal and encoding variability theory. In the study, subjects primed with independent or interdependent self-construal were exposed to either the same or varied ads. Findings indicate that, for foreground information in ad, independent self-construal subjects elicited more than interdependent self-construal subjects in same-ad repetition whereas there was no difference between independent and interdependent self-construal subjects in varied-ad repetition. However, for background information, interdependent self-construal subjects performed better than independent self-construal subjects in both same- and varied-ad repetition. In the case of brand recall, in varied-ad repetition, interdependent self-construal subjects recalled better than independent self-construal subjects did, whereas there was no difference between interdependent and independent self-construal subjects in same-ad repetition. It was also found interdependent self-construal subjects evaluated the target brand more positively than independent self-construal subjects did in varied-ad repetition. However, there was no difference in brand attitude between independent and interdependent subjects in same-ad repetition.  相似文献   

The moderating role of cultural orientation in explaining temporal orientation of self-referencing     

Seungae Lee  Jun Heo 《亚洲交流杂志》2016,26(4):333-349

A psychological process called self-referencing justifies the use of ‘you’ statements in advertisements; the more an individual relates an ad to him/herself, the greater the likelihood of recall and favorable evaluation. Self-referencing can be differentiated based on the temporal dimension of the self being activated while processing advertisements: when people remember themselves in the past they engage in retrospective self-referencing whereas they engage in anticipatory self-referencing when imagining themselves in the future. The current study examined the moderating role of consumers’ cultural background (i.e. long-term vs. short-term orientation) on the effects of temporal orientation of self-referencing. A corollary of this premise is that the match between cultural time orientation and the type of self-referencing activated by an ad will increase the extent of viewers’ self-referencing as well as advertising effectiveness. Further, this study confirmed a mediating role of self-referencing in explaining the match effects. The findings inform the extant literature on self-referencing and also provide managerial implications for international advertising practitioners.  相似文献   

Uses and Gratifications,Journalists’ Twitter Use,and Relational Satisfaction with the Public     

Yonghwan Kim  Youngju Kim  Yuan Wang  Na Yeon Lee 《广播与电子媒介杂志》2016,60(3):503-526

This study employed the uses and gratification approach to investigate how journalists perceive relational satisfaction with the public on Twitter, specifically the associations between journalists’ motivations to use Twitter, their Twitter use, and their relational satisfaction with the public. Through a survey of South Korean journalists, this study revealed that journalists’ motivations for Twitter use are positively related to their job-related activities on Twitter (e.g., posting/sharing their news and interacting with audience), which consequently influences perceived relational satisfaction with the public. The findings provide new insight into an increasingly important part of the public’s engagement and news/information flows in the digital media environment. This study expands upon the literature by analyzing how journalists’ motivations for using Twitter and their job-related activities on Twitter are associated with relational satisfaction with the public.  相似文献   

Social Media Type Matters: Investigating the Relationship Between Motivation and Online Social Network Heterogeneity     

Cheonsoo Kim  Jae Kook Lee 《广播与电子媒介杂志》2016,60(4):676-693

This study investigated relationships between social media motivation, relative preferences for social media type, and network heterogeneity, using a U.S. national survey. By classifying social media into the symmetrical and the asymmetrical, we showed that relationship motivation was more likely to be associated with a preference for the symmetrical type, whereas information motivation with a preference for the asymmetrical. Network heterogeneity was positively predicted by relationship motivation but not by information motivation. Finally, a relative preference for the symmetrical type was found to mediate the association between relationship motivation and network heterogeneity.  相似文献   

The “sacred” standing for the “fallen” spirits: Yasukuni Shrine and memory of war     

JongHwa Lee 《Journal of International and Intercultural Communication》2016,9(4):368-388

This essay examines the rhetoric/politics of Yasukuni Shrine as an experiential memory-scape, a material and discursive ground to frame and enact banal patriotism and militant nationalism. As a powerful mnemonic and rhetorical institution, Yasukuni Shrine (re)produces a nationalistic narrative and identity by (con)fusing natural feelings of individual grief and cultural tradition of commemoration with national heritage of banal patriotism. By (con)fusing what is “particular” and “universal,” Yasukuni Shrine establishes its rhetorical ground to justify a “banal” sense of patriotism that slips into the “ordinary yet honorable” fervor of militant nationalism, while effectively evading its moral/ethical reflexivity.  相似文献
