Exploring Language and Society with Big Data

Exploring Language and Society with Big Data

As the legislative bodies of democratic nations, parliaments play a fundamental role in society. Consequently the linguistic practices observed in parliamentary discourse are of importance to everyone. This volume brings together leading researchers in areas of corpus linguistics, big data, parliamentary discourse, and historical linguistics in a truly interdisciplinary exploration at the vanguard of big data and corpus methods with the aim to investigate the intersection between linguistic and social change. Making use of both quantitative and qualitative methods, the studies included in this volume range from a focus on explicitly linguistic phenomena to topics that contribute to our understanding of language and society more generally. It breaks new ground in its critical reflection on the conceptual and methodological challenges of using large corpora of parliamentary discourse to study both the specialised language of parliamentary speech and the societies that the parliaments in question represent and govern.

Normas APA (7ª edición) y Vancouver

El Trabajo Fin de Estudios (en adelante, TFE) supone la realización por parte del estudiante de un trabajo académico original con carácter individual y supervisado por uno o varios tutores y mediante el cual se evaluará la adquisición de conocimientos, capacidades y competencias asociadas al título. El TFE, contenido en los planes de estudio de las titulaciones oficiales universitarias, tiene carácter obligatorio y debe superarse para poder obtener el título correspondiente. Para que un estudiante pueda considerar terminados sus estudios universitarios deberá, obligatoriamente, elaborar un TFE que deberá defender en un acto de carácter público frente a la comisión evaluadora designada. La denominación, objeto y tipología del TFE dependerá, en primer lugar, de si se trata de trabajos que culminan enseñanzas de primer o de segundo ciclo.

Transitioning to Peace

This edited volume highlights how individuals, communities and nations are addressing a history of protracted violence in the transition to peace. This path is not linear or straightforward. The volume integrates research from peace processes and practices spanning over 20 countries. Four thematic areas unite these contributions: formal transitional justice mechanisms, social movements and collective action, community-driven processes, and future-oriented initiatives focused on children and youth. Across these chapters, the volume offers critical insight, new methods, conceptual models, and valuable cross-cultural research. The chapters in this volume balance locally-situated realties of peace, as well as cross-cutting similarities across contexts. This book will be of particular interest to those working for peace on the frontlines, as well as global policymakers aiming to learn from other cases. Academics in the fields of psychology, sociology, education, peace studies, communication, community development, youth studies, and behavioral economics may be particularly interested in this volume.

El arte de curar en Cartagena de Indias siglo XVII

El presente libro propone destacar dos personajes que ejercieron las artes médicas en Cartagena de Indias en la primera mitad del siglo XVII: Diego López, un mulato cirujano nacido en Cartagena y Paula de Eguiluz, una curandera de ancestro afro. A pesar de su calidad subalterna fueron reconocidos como sanadores expertos en la sociedad de su tiempo. Es preciso resaltar que el oficio de médicos, cirujanos, boticarios, barberos y curanderas era considerado arte manual y artesanal. Los médicos tenían mayor reconocimiento porque habían adquirido su saber en universidades españolas o europeas. Cartagena en el siglo XVII era el puerto de mayor importancia en el continente suramericano. Allí...

Motor games are incredibly useful in enhancing education and developing critical skills; they can entertain, produce pleasant emotions, improve moods, and increase the level of relationships. Motor games allow social, emotional, and cognitive development as well as the acquisition of motor skills such as knowledge and mastery of body, postural control and adjustment, and improvement of coordination. However, it is essential to select the appropriate game for each context to achieve the desired learning in all students. Further research on the opportunities, challenges, and future directions of motor games in education is necessary to successfully implement them. The Handbook of Research on Using Motor Games in Teaching and Learning Strategy presents significant advances in motor game education and collects research evidence that uncovers the certainties and testifies to the educational power of motor games in various situations and specific contexts that promote the learning of participants. Covering topics such as emotional physical education and educational mediation, this major reference work is ideal for researchers, academicians, educators, practitioners, and students.

Pathophysiology of Bone and Mineral Metabolism
  • Language: en
  • Pages: 124

Pathophysiology of Bone and Mineral Metabolism

Bone is the principal store for calcium and phosphate and one of the main regulators of mineral metabolism. The principal cells involved in bone remodeling are osteocytes, osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which maintain a precise equilibrium of bone mass. However, there are many factors that can affect bone and mineral homeostasis such as inadequate diet, microbiota alterations or aging. Furthermore, pathological conditions such as renal diseases, genetic disorders, obesity or inflammatory diseases can also potentially affect bone homeostasis, compromising bone health and leading to fractures and complications. Thus, integration of the mechanisms involved in mineral and bone alterations is key to understand bone physiology and its endocrine functions.
