Affordance processing in segregated parieto-frontal dorsal stream sub-pathways.
No full textThe concept of affordances indicates 'action possibilities' as characterized by object properties the environment provides to interacting organisms. Affordances relate to both perception and action and refer to sensory-motor processes emerging from goal-directed object interaction. In contrast to stable properties, affordances may vary with environmental context. A sub-classification into stable and variable affordances was proposed in the framework of the ROSSI project (Borghi et al., 2010; Borghi and Riggio, 2015, 2009). Here, we present a coordinate-based meta-analysis of functional imaging studies on object interaction targeting consistent anatomical correlates of these different types of affordances. Our review revealed the existence of two parallel (but to some extent overlapping) functional pathways. The network for stable affordances consists of predominantly left inferior parietal and frontal cortices in the ventro-dorsal stream, whereas the network for variable affordances is localized preferentially in the dorso-dorsal stream. This is in line with the proposal of differentiated affordances: stable affordances are characterized by the knowledge of invariant object features, whereas variable affordances underlie adaptation to changing object properties

O QUE DOREEN DIRIA SOBRE NÓS? UM ENSAIO SOBRE A PEDAGOGIA DA ESPERANÇA
No full textResumo:Este ensaio investe na análise da produção bibliográfica de Doreen Massey, com atenção focada nos títulos dirigidos aos cursos para o segmento do Ensino Superior, ministrados ou organizados por ela nas décadas de 1990-2000, na Open University (em Milton Keynes, Reino Unido). A aproximação a esses trabalhos – ainda sem tradução para o português – procura inventariar os aspectos pedagógicos nas construções epistemológicas da autora. O estudo da face pedagógica de Massey, ao considerar seus textos didáticos, busca um painel de ações, recursos e metodologias para uma possível adoção dos conteúdos da Geografia passíveis de serem inseridos na Educação Básica. Portanto, não se trata de uma incorporação vertical da academia para a escola, mas um estudo cujo inventário de procedimentos possa ser inspirador para a epistemologia escolar, considerando a potencialidade da concepção espacial desenvolvida pela a autora (MASSEY, 1995, 2004, 2006, 2008).Palavras-chave: Doreen Massey, Espaço, Ensino de Geografia. Abstract: This essay invests in the analysis of Doreen Massey's bibliographic production, with attention to the titles directed to Higher Education courses, taught or organized by her in the decades of 1990-2000, at the Open University (in Milton Keynes, UK). The approach to these works - without translation into Portuguese - seeks to set pedagogical aspects down in the author 's epistemological constructions. The study of the pedagogical bias of Massey provides a set of actions, resources and methodologies for a possible syllabus of Geography that can be adopted in elementary education. Therefore, it is not a vertical incorporation of the academy into the school, but a study whose inventory of procedures can be inspiring for school epistemology, considering the possibilities of the spatial conception (MASSEY, 1995, 2004, 2006, 2008).Keywords: Doreen Massey, Space, Geography Education.

“PELO ESPAÇO” NA VIA DE DOREEN MASSEY: UMA ANÁLISE PEDAGÓGICA DE “MATERIAL GEOGRAPHIES”
No full textThe aim of this article seeks to reflect on the pedagogical aspect in the extensive bibliographic production of the British Geography Doreen Massey. The current study deals with the content analysis of the chapter Geographies of solidarities, inserted in the pedagogical material of the course Material Geographies – a world in the making. This paperback, edited by Open University in 2008, is a pedagogical material adopted by the course of the same institution of distance education and at the same time it diffuses theoretical tendencies directed by Open Space Research. Our aim seeks to analyse the Bibliography of the author and to focuses on the titles directed by courses taught or organized by Massey in the 1990’s, at the Open University (in Milton Keynes, UK). This approach to these issues - still without a Portuguese translation –look forward a file Doreen Massey's pedagogical ideas and how it tie in the School Geography curriculum in BrazilA questão central deste estudo busca refletir sobre o aspecto pedagógico na extensa produção bibliográfica da geógrafa britânica Doreen Massey. O presente estudo se ocupará da análise de conteúdo do capítulo Geographies of solidarities, inserido no material pedagógico do curso Material Geographies – a world in the making. Tal publicação, editada pela Open University em 2008, trata-se de material pedagógico adotado para curso da mesma instituição de educação a distância (EAD) e que ao mesmo tempo difunde tendências teóricas dirigidas pela Open Space Research. Tal intuito investe na análise da produção bibliográfica da autora, com atenção focada nos títulos dirigidos aos cursos ministrados ou organizados por ela na década de 1990, na Open University (em Milton Keynes, Reino Unido). Esta aproximação com esses trabalhos – ainda sem tradução para o português – procura inventariar os aspectos pedagógicos de Doreen Massey e seus possíveis desdobramentos para o currículo da Geografia Escolar no Brasil

Exploring the effects of mood states, cultural background, and the congruity between ad appeal and product type on consumers’ attitudes and purchasing intentions
No full textThis paper examines the interactive effects of mood, culture and message appeal (i.e., congruity/incongruity between ad appeals and product types). Two online experiments were conducted with 438 participants from both U.S. and China. All participants (i.e., Americans and Chinese) were randomly assigned to either a positive or negative mood condition and were asked to read either a greeting card ad (Study 1) or a household printer ad (Study 2) that contained either experiential or functional verbal claims. The results showed that people from different cultural backgrounds and in different mood states had different ad preferences. There were main effects of culture as well as main effects of ad congruity on persuasion outcomes. However, the three-way interaction of mood, culture and message appeals on persuasion outcomes was not significant. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed in regard to how American and Chinese consumers in different mood states process different types of ad message appeal.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-05-01The student, Doreen Shen, accepted the attached license on 2018-04-17 at 17:25.The student, Doreen Shen, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-04-17 at 17:31.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-04-19 at 14:10.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12326 on 2018-08-31 at 17:20:16Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-04T20:36:42Z (GMT).

Second chances
No full textWhen one thing ends, another begins, whether we are aware of it or not. Life is a series of hardships, punctuated by second chances sometimes provided to us, sometimes created by us through sheer will or tenacity, sometimes not seized, or sometimes not offered because the second chance is for others, and not for ourselves. Resiliency is no guarantee that a second chance will manifest, but it is requisite for survival. We follow our lives’ most difficult episodes by writing new chapters day-by-day. We are creating less than perfect drafts, but we are nonetheless changed as wounds begin to heal, no matter how deep or incurable they seem in our moment of loss. Whatever is taken from us is replaced by a different entity—wisdom or ignorance, a perpetual dance with our grief or our demons, or a new life that resembled nothing of our former self—a dream or a nightmare of our very own. Second Chances is an essay collection organized around the principle of resiliency and change, the forward momentum of life after loss, and the perspective we gain after having survived it.M.F.A.by Doreen Angela Fer
