A Comparative Analysis On The Use Of But, However And Although In The University StudentsOzhan, Didem 01 March 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Discourse connectives signal discourse coherence by making discourse relations explicit and by playing a role in the organization and structure of information in discourse. Therefore, their use in L2 writing is an important field of study that is likely to have implications for discourse competence both at the sentence-level discourse and at the level of larger discourse structure.
The aim of the present study is to account for the use of three contrastive discourse connectives, but, however and although at both the microstructural and the macrostructural levels of discourse in the argumentative essays written by Turkish learners of English and native speakers of American English. The patterns of use by L2 learners are compared with those of native speakers. The analysis is based on 120 essays from two corpora: Turkish subcorpus of the International Corpus of Learner English (TICLE) and American subcorpus of Louvain Corpus of Native English Essays (ALOCNESS).
The study reveals that the argumentative essays of Turkish learners of English and American students do not differ significantly regarding the three connectives neither structurally nor semantically. However, at the macrostructural level of discourse, differences concerning the pattern of argumentation and the role that the connectives play in the claim-counterargument-refutation pattern of organization were observed. Further analysis on other lexical items used in argumentation shows that in ALOCNESS, there is more reliance on other means, such as the lexical items expressing modality and those signaling the argumentative nature of the text.

Elenchos et poésie : l'effet esthétique de Socrate dans le "Charmide" de PlatonMousseau, Fanie 11 1900 (has links)
Le Charmide de Platon s’inscrit légitimement dans ce qu’il est convenu de nommer les « dialogues de jeunesse », et nous y constatons la forte présence de ce qui caractérise traditionnellement l’activité philosophique de Socrate, soit la réfutation. Cependant, tandis que les réfutations effectuées directement sur le jeune Charmide ne produisent aucun effet, celui-ci réagit fortement aux réfutations que Socrate fait subir à son tuteur Critias et auxquelles il assiste passivement. Qu’est-ce qui, dans ce qui s’apparente vraisemblablement à une réfutation indirecte, produit l’ébranlement de Charmide? Nous voulons regarder en quoi la réfutation est ici un traitement purgatif non pas par l’usage d’affirmations propositionnelles contradictoires, mais par une certaine dialectique de l’image, celles de Critias et de Socrate devant Charmide. Cette dialectique de l’image en appelant à une réflexion sur la dimension mimétique du rapport qu’entretient le jeune garçon avec ces deux hommes, nous voulons ainsi regarder en quoi la réfutation indirecte de Charmide nous dresse les contours d’une possible activité poétique de Socrate. Cette poésie résisterait à la critique que celui-ci en fait plus tard dans la République par un usage de l’image qui vise non plus à proposer des modèles fixes de la vertu, mais à montrer le mouvement de la pensée, et donc à « sensibiliser » Charmide à l’élan intellectuel qui l’habite et l’anime lui-même. Ainsi, en nous penchant sur la présence dans le Charmide de ce que nous nommons une « réfutation poétique », ce mémoire explore la possibilité de penser ensemble ce qui semble assoir l’intellectualisme socratique des premiers dialogues et la poésie qui, par son absence de visée intellectuelle, est rejetée par le Socrate de la République à moins qu’elle ne prenne la forme d’un « éloge des hommes bons ». / Plato's Charmides is part of what we refer to as the «early dialogues», and we find in these dialogues a major feature of Socrates's philosophy, mainly refutation. However, while these refutations don't have any effects on the young Charmides, he still reacts to Socrates's refutation of Critias. We wonder how this indirect refutation produces such a reaction on Charmides. We look at how refutation represents here a purgative treatment not by using contradictory propositions, but with the use of a certain dialectic of the image, the ones of Critias and Socrates facing Charmides. Examining this dialectic, which refers to the study of the mimetic dimension that the young boy maintains with the two men, we wish to reflect on how the indirect refutation of Charmides draws the outline of Socrates's possible poetical activity. This poetry resists to the critics made later in the Republic pertaining to the use of images relating to certain models of virtue, by showing the motion of thought, and hence guiding Charmides in his own intellectual motion. By reflecting on the «poetical refutation» we find in Plato's Charmides, this thesis explores the possibility of linking what seems to ground Socrates's intellectualism in the early dialogues to the poetry that is rejected par Socrates in the Republic, besides the one that pertains to the «defense of good men».

I väntan på ett barn : En litteraturöversikt som beskriver pars behov inom infertilitetsvård / Waiting for a child : A literature review that describes couples’ needs in infertility careAndersson, Malin, Ytterberg, Elin January 2019 (has links)
Bakgrund: Ofrivillig barnlöshet är ett vanligt problem hos par i fertil ålder och drabbar runt 15–20 % av alla par i västvärlden som önskar få barn. Infertilitet och infertilitetsvård kan bidra till sämre hälsa och kan vara påfrestande för båda parter i paret. Processen kan även leda till ett lidande där sjuksköterskan har en viktig roll. För att bemöta par och tillgodose deras önskemål är det angeläget att studera vilka behov de upplever. Syfte: Att beskriva behov par erfar i samband med infertilitetsvård. Metod: En litteraturöversikt där datamaterial bestod av sju vetenskapliga artiklar varav två kvantitativa, fyra kvalitativa och en av mixad metod. Resultat: I resultatet framkom tre teman, Stöd, Respekt och förståelse samt En utformad och anpassad miljö. Det framkom även sex subteman. Konklusion: Att möta par inom infertilitetsvård kan vara komplext och ytterligare kunskap kring vilka behov de upplever kan vara angeläget. Som sjuksköterska är det viktigt att bidra med stöd och information gällande processen. Det är även viktigt att individualisera vården och se till varje pars egna önskemål. Respekt och förståelse samt anpassning och utveckling av organisationen är angeläget där högre instanser bör bli engagerade. / Background: Involuntary infertility is a common problem in couples of fertile age and affects around 15–20% of all couples in the Western world who wish to have children. Infertility and the care can contribute to poorer health, which can be stressful for both parties in the couple. The process can also lead to a suffering were the nurse has an important role to play. To respond to the couple and meet their wishes, it is important to study the needs they experiences. Aim: To describe the needs couple experiences in connection with infertility care. Method: A literature review where data material consisted of seven scientific articles, two of which were quantitative, four qualitative and one of mixed method. Results: From the result, three themes appeared, Support, Respect and understanding and An Adapted and developed environment. There were also six sub-themes. Conclusion: Meeting couples in infertility care can be complex and further knowledge about what needs they are experiencing can be important. As a nurse, it is important to contribute with support and information regarding the process. It is also important to individualize the care and look to each couple's own wishes. Respect and understanding as well as adaptation and development of the organization are urgent where higher instances should become involved.

Overcomming Misconceptions in Religious Education: The Effects of Text Structure and Topic Interest on Conceptual ChangeKing, Seth J. 01 May 2013 (has links)
The aim of this study was to quantitatively measure refutation text's power for conceptual change while qualitatively discovering students' preference of refutation or expository text structures. This study also sought to examine if religious interest levels predict conceptual change. Participants for this study were 9th, 10th-, 11th-, and 12th-grade seminary students from the private religious educational system of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). The study was conducted in two sessions. Session 1 involved pretesting, interventions, and posttesting. Session 2 involved delayed posttesting and participant interviews. Results were predominately measured quantitatively with some qualitative interview analysis added to enrich the study. This research study provides insight into the refutation text effects in LDS religious education. Results of the study showed significant differences in conceptual change between participants reading refutation texts and those reading expository texts. In every case, the refutation text group performed higher on posttests than did the expository group. Results also showed participant preference toward refutation text structures. Furthermore, the study found significant correlations that verify topic interest as a possible predictor of conceptual change. Insights are valuable in aiding curriculum developers in implementing effective ways to teach doctrinal principles by utilizing refutation text interventions. The advantages of this research study add to educational research and identify areas for improvement and exploration in further research. This study of refutation text effects in religious education also broadens researchers' understanding of refutation text's power for conceptual change in subjects outside of K-12 science. Results of this study are of interest to researchers, teachers, curriculum writers, and LDS seminary teachers and administrators.

Fibromyalgi : Bemötande från vården av personer med fibromyalgi - förstådd eller oförstådd / Fibromyalgia : The refutation from the healtcare of people with fibromyalgia - understood or misunderstoodJohansson, Maria, Piasom, Hannah January 2020 (has links)
Bakgrund: Fibromyalgi är en kronisk sjukdom som karaktäriseras av en utbredd kronisk smärta. Fibromyalgi har en betydande påverkan både socialt och fysiskt på en persons dagliga liv, vilket ger upphov till ett ökat lidande för personerna med fibromyalgi. Det finns en stigmatisering kring personer med fibromyalgi från samhället och hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal, vilket orsakar ett bristfälligt bemötande av personer drabbade av fibromyalgi. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att beskriva hur personer med fibromyalgi upplever bemötandet från hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal. Metod: En litteraturstudie genomfördes där resultatet innehåller 11 vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultat: Litteraturstudiens resultat delades in i tre kategorier: Bemötandet från hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal, Brist på kunskap och Brist på stöd. Resultatet visade på att personer med fibromyalgi upplevde bemötandet från hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal som bristfällig. De upplevde sig missförstådda, inte trodda och de kände en brist på stöd, förståelse och kunskap från professioner inom hälso-och sjukvården. Konklusion: Studien visade på att personer med fibromyalgi upplevde bemötandet från hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal som ansträngd där man inte tog dem på allvar och inte såg dem som individer. Studien indikerar på att mer forskning behövs för att öka kunskapen om sjukdomen fibromyalgi, men även att undervisning för hälso-och sjukvårdspersonal om bemötande kan vara effektivt för att personer med fibromyalgi inte ska uppleva det som ansträngt. / Background: Fibromyalgia is a chronic disease that is characterized by a widespread pain. Fibromyalgia has a significant impact both socially and physically on a person’s daily life which causes an increased suffering for people with fibromyalgia. There is a stigmatization around people with fibromyalgia from the society and healthcare personnel which causes an defective refutation of people with fibromyalgia. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe how people with fibromyalgia experienced the refutation from healthcare personnel. Method: A literature study was conducted where the result included 11 scientific articles. Result: The literature result was divided into three categories: Refutation from healthcare personnel, Lack of knowledge and Lack of support. The result showed that people with fibromyalgia experienced the refutation as defective. They felt misunderstood, not believed and they felt a lack of support, understanding and a lack of knowledge from professions in healthcare. Conclusion: The study showed that people with fibromyalgia experienced the refutation with healthcare personnel as strained where they did not take them serious and did not see them as individuals. The study indicates that more research is needed to increase the knowledge about the disease fibromyalgia but also that education of healthcare personnel about refutation could be advisable so that people with fibromyalgia would not experience the refutation as strained.

Utilisation des schématisations de termes en déduction automatique / Using term schematisations in automated deductionBensaid, Hicham 17 June 2011 (has links)
Les schématisations de termes permettent de représenter des ensembles infinis de termes ayant une structure similaire de manière finie et compacte. Dans ce travail, nous étudions certains aspects liés à l'utilisation des schématisations de termes en déduction automatique, plus particulièrement dans les méthodes de démonstration de théorèmes du premier ordre par saturation. Après une brève étude comparée des formalismes de schématisation existants, nous nous concentrons plus particulièrement sur les termes avec exposants entiers (ou I-termes). Dans un premier temps, nous proposons une nouvelle approche permettant de détecter automatiquement des régularités dans les espaces de recherche. Cette détection des régularités peut avoir plusieurs applications, notamment la découverte de lemmes nécessaires à la terminaison dans certaines preuves inductives. Nous présentons DS3, un outil qui implémente ces idées. Nous comparons notre approche avec d'autres techniques de généralisation de termes. Notre approche diffère complètement des techniques existantes car d'une part, elle est complètement indépendante de la procédure de preuve utilisée et d'autre part, elle utilise des techniques de généralisation inductive et non déductives. Nous discutons également les avantages et les inconvénients liés à l'utilisation de notre méthode et donnons des éléments informels de comparaison avec les approches existantes. Nous nous intéressons ensuite aux aspects théoriques de l'utilisation des I-termes en démonstration automatique. Nous démontrons que l'extension aux I-termes du calcul de résolution ordonnée est réfutationnellement complète, que l'extension du calcul de superposition n'est pas réfutationnellement complète et nous proposons une nouvelle règle d'inférence pour restaurer la complétude réfutationnelle. Nous proposons ensuite un algorithme d'indexation (pour une sous-classe) des I-termes, utile pour le traitement des règles de simplification et d'élimination de la redondance. Finalement nous présentons DEI, un démonstrateur automatique de théorèmes capable de gérer directement des formules contenant des I-termes. Nous évaluons les performances de ce logiciel sur un ensemble de benchmarks. / Term schematisations allow one to represent infinite sets of terms having a similar structure by a finite and compact form. In this work we study some issues related to the use of term schematisation in automated deduction, in particular in saturation-based first-order theorem proving. After a brief comparative study of existing schematisation formalisms, we focus on terms with integer exponents (or I-terms). We first propose a new approach allowing to automatically detect regularities (obviously not always) on search spaces. This is motivated by our aim at extending current theorem provers with qualitative improvements. For instance, detecting regularities permits to discover lemmata which is mandatory for terminating in some kinds of inductive proofs. We present DS3, a tool which implements these ideas. Our approach departs from existing techniques since on one hand it is completely independent of the proof procedure used and on the other hand it uses inductive generalization techniques instead of deductive ones. We discuss advantages and disadvantages of our method and we give some informal elements of comparison with similar approaches. Next we tackle some theoretical aspects of the use of I-terms in automated deduction. We prove that the direct extension of the ordered resolution calculus is refutationally complete. We provide an example showing that a direct extension of the superposition calculus is not refutationally complete and we propose a new inference rule to restore refutational completeness. We then propose an indexing algorithm for (a subclass of) I-terms. This algorithm is an extension of the perfect discrimination trees that are are employed by many efficient theorem provers to implement redundancy elimination rules. Finally we present DEI, a theorem prover with built-in capabilities to handle formulae containing I-terms. This theorem-prover is an extension of the E-prover developed by S. Schulz. We evaluate the performances of this software on a set of benchmarks.
