Planning in Brazil, India and Germany
No full textPlanning is a fundamental cognitive ability that helps in organizing and structuring events unfolding in a person\u27s daily life. Two studies are presented that analyze planning behavior in different cultures: Brazil, India, and Germany. The first is a cross-cultural psychological study in which students develop plans for uncertain problem scenarios. The second study follows a cultural psychological tradition. Workers from different domains are interviewed about their life problems and plans. The strengths and the weaknesses of both approaches become obvious in the description and discussion of these two studies. The cross-cultural study sheds light on cross-cultural similarities and differences in planning in Brazil, India, and Germany. The cultural psychological approach yields data regarding a theoretical model on the specific cultural influences on planning
Decision Making in Individualistic and Collectivistic Cultures
No full textHow do cultural values influence individuals\u27 decision making? One would expect answers to this question either from cognitive psychology or from cross-cultural psychology. Cognitive theories on decision making, however, rarely consider the factor of culture, and research in cross-cultural psychology deals only to a small extent with decision making. Therefore the study of culture and decision making is a relatively new and unexplored field. In this paper normative and descriptive approaches to decision making are discussed and three cross-cultural studies on decision making in individualistic and collectivist cultures using different methodologies are described. The results are integrated into a model that can be helpful to derive specific hypotheses for further studies in this field
Dominik Tatarka - wędrowiec
No full textDominik Tatarka is one of the Slovak travel books’s author; he wrotes reports Clovek na cestach. The travelling was important factor of his life: he find an inspiration for his writting and he formulated his life’s philosophy during his journeys. The travelling is one of the important key for reading all his compositions and for understanding his otlook on life: the author presents himself no as the postmodern nomad, but as the pilgrim, who wanders for aim „to unit splits world” and to find a man
Reduction of Parasitic Capacitance in Vertical MOSFETs by Spacer Local Oxidation
No full textApplication of double gate or surround-gate vertical metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) is hindered by the parasitic overlap capacitance associated with their oayout, which is considerably larger than for a lateral MOSFET on the same technology node. A simple self-aligned procfess has been developed to reduce the parasitic overlap capacitance in MOSFETs using nitride spacers on the sidewalls of the trench or pillar and a local oxidation. This will result in an oxide layer on all exposed planar surfaces, but no oxide layer on the protected vertical channel area of the pillar. The encroachment of the oxide on the side of the pillar is studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM)which is used to calibrate the nitride viscosity in the process simulations. Surround gate vertical transistors incorporating the spacer oxidation have been fabricated, and these transistors show the integrity of the process and excellent subthreshold slope and drive current. The reduction in intrinsic capacitance is calculated to be a factor of three. Pillar capacitors with a more advanced process have been fabricated and the total measured capacitance is reduced by a factor of five compared with structures without the spacer oxidation. Device simulations confirm the measured reduction in capacitance

Polymorphism in molecular cocrystals controlled by variable temperature ball milling
No full textMechanochemistry offers a unique opportunity to modify or synthesize new crystal forms. Although the method is very promising, little is known about the mechanochemical means to control the synthesis of a solid form. Using an polymorphic organic cocrystal system, we show here that mechanochemistry can be used to obtain a polymorph transformation under the apparently conventional (thermal) transition point
Beato Iohannes Traguriensis and Dominik Andreis
No full textIn the 17th century, the hagiography and iconography of Bishop Iohannes Traguriensis were enriched by various members of Trogir’ s noble families. In this promotion of the cult of the local beato, Dominik Andreis stands out with his efforts: he was the author of an unpublished Litany in Croatian (1632), the instigator of publishing an Italian Vita by Giovanni Francesco Loredan (1648), and the sponsor of a three act drama by Girolamo Brusoni (1656), performed in Trogir with musical intermezzos and published two years later (1658)
