Kocúrkovo As a Slovak Anti-Myth
No full textIn the 70s and the 80s of the 20th century, a new view of Záborský’s literary work began to occur. A. Bagin formed the key hypothesis about Záborský as a modern author. The problem of comical in his works was opened by S. Rakús and A. Kruláková. A. Kruláková was also the first who depicted an irony line in the Slovak literature from Bajza, Chalupka to Záborský. Then J. Števček, V. Mikula a P. Darovec adopted it into their interpretations. In his interpretation of the prose by P. Vilikovského Večne je zelený ... (Ever Green Is...) P. Darovec worked it up until the present time. In the 70s and 80s O. Čepan dealt with the poetics of Záborský‘s prose most intensively. In Záborský’s prose he identified paradox and irony as its primary features. Both O. Čepan and A. Kruláková revealed the domination of low (Bachtin) carnality. In his Summary to Faustiáda (1984) and mainly in his introductory study Staromilský novátor Jonáš Záborský? in Dielo I (1989) Oskár Čepan changed his former thesis about Záborský as a late Classicist and he described his work as a part of Romanticism, its “reverse”, negative and natural negation. All main features of Záborský ’s prose texts as its intentional anti-myth character, heteronymous character, monsterlikeness, paradox, irony as a reflexive duplication of the text, metalepsis as a basic rhetoric figure, grotesque as a genre of “flying arabesques” prove that Záborský’s late proses mainly Faustiáda belong among the works that use the Romantic irony. The latest Slavic research has identified the Romantic irony as a discourse of the late Romanticism in Puškin’s Eugen Onegin (H. Meyer), in Słowacký’s Balladyne (M. Żmigrodska, G. Ritz) or in early works of Hálek (Z. Hrbata, M. Procházka). Also the study Kocúrkovo as a Slovak Anti-Myth belongs to this line of research

No full textTowards control over redox behaviour and ionic conductivity in LiTi2(PO4)(3) fast lithium-ion conductor
No full text[EN] The location of redox couples in transition metal compounds is among the key factors that determine their applicability. AM2(PO4)3 NASICONs (A ¿ Na, Li; M ¿ Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, Sn, Fe, ¿) form an intriguing group that feature fast ion diffusion and tunable reduction/oxidation potentials and can therefore find numerous applications. The present study focuses on the LiTi2(PO4)3 member of this family and the possibility of controlling its transport and redox properties. It highlights the close relationship between the modification of the crystal and band structures via substitutions in the Ti sublattice or intercalation with lithium and its redox behaviour as well as transport properties. The correlation between ionic conductivity and the position of the Ti4þ/Ti3þ redox potential is discussed. UV-VIS reflectance spectra revealed a significant impact of the type of dopant as well as the level of intercalation on the position of the fundamental absorption edge, indicating the possibility of modifying the electronic structure. In the case of some of the examined dopants (Nb, Sn, In), more complex interaction was observed, since they introduce their own redox activity, and thus enable the material's behaviour to be modified even further.This work was funded by the National Science Centre of Poland as part of the grant no. 2012/05/D/ST5/00472.Zajac, W.; Tarach, M.; Trenczek-Zajac, A.

No full textSpecies distributions are influenced by spatial structure in environmental factors, but the scales at which these dependencies occur and the effect of habitat patch diversity, connectivity and spatial arrangement have rarely been investigated in deep-sea settings. In this study, spatially-limited photographic transects collected from Rockall Bank, Northeast Atlantic, were combined with sidescan and multibeam sonar maps to model spatial patterns in species distribution and biodiversity. Sediment interpretation maps were created and canonical ordination techniques were used to examine relationships between fine-scale sediment characteristics extracted from the digital stills as well as landscape metrics describing the patch mosaic structure of the surrounding areas. Fine-scale sediment characteristics explained 45.1% and 63.8% of the variation in species composition and biodiversity (H′) respectively. This survey effectively captured variation in species distribution resulting from iceberg ploughmarks, occurring at a scale of < 50 m which would normally go undetected by traditional ship-based studies. Our study suggests that fine-scale environmental information is required to capture the spatial heterogeneity of complex seafloor areas in sufficient detail to model species distributions and biodiversity

Relationships between three auditory inspection time tasks and processing speed
No full textThis study investigated the relationship between a spatial auditory inspection time task and previous versions of AIT, as well as the relationships of these tasks with visual inspection time (VIT) and general speediness (Gs). A total of 96 university undergraduates (age mean (M) = 20.0 years, standard deviation (SD) = 4.0 years) completed three AIT tasks, VIT, auditory reaction time (ART) and visual reaction time (VRT), and two Gs marker tests. Auditory inspection time-spatial (AIT-S) did not relate to VIT, but it did relate to the Gs marker tests. It also loaded moderately on a Gs factor along with VIT. Neither of the alternate AIT tasks showed any consistent relationships to reaction time (RT) or Gs measures. The AIT-S task did, however, share substantial variance with its predecessors, suggesting that performance on all AIT tasks relies to some extent on similar processes. Further research is required to determine the nature of these processes.Ian T. Zajac and Nicholas R. Burn
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
