The thesis deals with a mortality modelling in the Czech Republic. The main aim of this thesis is to describe historical development of mortality in the Czech Republic on the basis of multinomial regression. In a theoretical part the basic knowledge demanded for model construction divided into two chapters can be found. In the first chapter the basic difference between linear and generalized linear model is described. Second chapter is devoted to a logistic regression. Here we proceed from simple, binomial variable and then we generalize it for multinomial variable. Practical part deals with a construction of a described model. In the third chapter data (type and source) are described and in the fourth chapter characterizes all three models itself (two of them are descriptive and the third one is used for simple prediction). The prediction is added rather for completeness than for the importance of the work itself because it was not the main goal.

A common procedural variation that facilitates the acquisition of conditional discriminations is to increase the time an organism spends in the presence of the sample stimulus by programming extended sample-observing response requirements. Despite their common use, there has been little empirical investigation of the effects of extended sample-observing response requirements. In the current study, four pigeons worked on a titrating delay matching-to-sample procedure in which the delay between sample offset and comparison onset was adjusted as a function of the pigeons' accuracy. The number of responses required to produce the comparison array was manipulated across conditions. Results show that all subjects were able to withstand longer delays between sample offset and comparison onset as sample-observing response requirements increased. These data show that the extent of the response requirement in the presence of the sample has systematic effects on conditional discrimination performances and should be considered in the design of experiments.

Os nossos resultados são consistentes com a conjectura de Wang e Ziller sobre a finitude das métricas de Einstein. O nosso método para resolver as equações de Einstein e baseado nas simetrias do sistema algébrico. Obtemos os sistemas algébricos de Einstein para variedades bandeira generalizadas do tipo B1 C1e G2. Estes sistemas são as condições necessárias e suficientes para métricas invariantes nessas variedades serem Einstein. Os sistemas algébricos que obtivemos generalizam as equações de Einstein obtidas por Sakane nos casos maximais. As equações nos casos Al e Dl foram obtidas por Arvanitoyeorgos. Calculamos o conjunto das trazes para as variedades bandeira generalizadas dos grupos de Lie clássicos. Assim estendemos à essas variedades certos resultados sobre estruturas Hermitianas invariantes obtidos por San Martin, Cohen e Negreiros. / Abstract: In this work we and all the invariant Einstein metrics on four families of ag manifolds of type Bl and Cl. Our results are consistent with the finiteness conjecture of Einstein metrics proposed by Wang and Ziller. Our approach for solving the Einstein equations is based on the symmetries of the algebraic system. We obtain the Einstein algebraic systems for the generalized ag manifolds of type Bl, Cl and G2. These systems are necessary and sufficient conditions for invariant metrics on these manifolds to be Einstein. The algebraic systems that we obtained generalize the Einstein equations obtained by Sakane in the maximal cases. The equations in the cases Al and Dl were obtained by Arvanitoyeorgos. We calculate all the t-roots on the generalized ag manifolds of the classical Lie groups. Thus we extend to these manifolds certain results on invariant structures Hermitian obtained by San Martin, Cohen and Negreiros. / Doutorado / Geometria Diferencial / Doutor em Matemática

Orientador: Prof. Dr. Paulo Tadeu da Silva / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal do ABC, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Filosofia, São Bernardo do Campo, 2018. / A presente dissertação tem como objetivo relacionar, do ponto de vista das Regras para a direção do espírito, a epistemologia, o método e a nascente filosofia natural cartesiana por meio da seguinte pergunta norteadora: como Descartes elaborou a hipótese das naturezas simples materiais, como elas se relacionam com o método e a sua aplicabilidade? Para tanto iniciamos pela discussão sobre quais seriam para Descartes as bases, dentre elas a matemática, para o conhecimento universal acerca das coisas contingentes. Depois, abordamos as naturezas simples, com ênfase nas naturezas simples materiais, a sua importância para a percepção dos objetos corpóreos e a sua relação com os objetos da matemática. Em seguida, investigamos o papel da experiência (sensorial) no processo de obtenção do conhecimento. Na sequência, analisamos a relação entre o intelecto e a imaginação e o seu papel na conciliação do geral ou universal (naturezas simples materiais) com o particular (cada objeto corpóreo). Por fim, foi realizada uma breve discussão a respeito da possibilidade de a natureza simples material extensão ser intuída e a existência da extensão fora de nós ser deduzida sem qualquer contato com um objeto corpóreo. / This dissertation has the aim of relating, from the point of view of the "Rules for the direction of the Mind", the epistemology, the method and the emergent Cartesian natural philosophy through the following guiding question: how did Descartes elaborate the hypothesis of the simple material natures, and how do they relate to the method and its applicability? For this purpose, we iniciate a discussion about the possible bases considered by Descartes for the universal knowledge about the contingent things, including mathematics. Further, we approach the simple natures focusing on the simple material natures and their importance for the perception of the tangible objects, as well as their relation to the mathematical objetes. Subsequently, we investigate the role of experience (sensorial) in the process of acquiring knowledge. After that, we analyse the relationship between the intelect and the imagination, and its role in reconciliating what is general or universal (simple material natures) with what is particular (each tangible object). Finally, we perform a brief discussion related to the possibility of both perceiving the simple material nature of extension and deducing the extension outside us without any contact with a tangible object.

Metrodorea A. St.-Hil. é um gênero neotropical de Rutaceae, com espécies que apresentam folhas compostas ou unifolioladas e heterofilia, além de uma intrigante estrutura protetora de gemas em sua base. Filogenias moleculares disponíveis para a família apontam para uma necessidade de revisão de sua classificação tradicional, que deve encontrar respaldo em sinapomorfias morfológicas adequadas para os novos grupos estabelecidos. Foi realizado um estudo da morfanatomia e ontogênese foliar de Metrodorea e grupos relacionados, observadas sob uma perspectiva filogenética, com dados disponíveis na literatura e obtidos de técnicas usuais em anatomia vegetal. No primórdio de folha ocorre formação da base seguida de diferenciação acrópeta de primórdios de folíolos, sendo dois proximais pareados e um terminal nas folhas trifolioladas, mas apenas o terminal nas folhas simples e unifolioladas. Rudimentos de folíolos foram observados em espécies heterofilas de Metrodorea. Na base foliar das espécies deste gênero a estrutura protetora inicia-se como apêndices pareados, revelando uma condição estipular. A quantidade de folíolos é dependente de uma maior ou menor determinação do primórdio foliar e sua redução pode ter sido favorecida pela perda de folíolos durante uma restrição do espaço necessário para o desenvolvimento. Metrodorea tem como sinapomorfias a presença de aborto de folíolos, estípula intrapeciolar vascularizada, tricomas glandulares proximais adaxiais no pecíolo, folíolos evidentemente peciolulados, duas sementes por lóculo no fruto e estivação valvar da corola. Suas relações infragenéricas são debatidas de acordo com a localização dos cristais, forma de aderência da base das folhas e presença ou não de tricomas na lâmina foliar. A proximidade do gênero com Raulinoa é sustentada por uma maior quantidade de sinapomorfias morfológicas do que com outros gêneros. A monofilia de Esenbeckia não encontra apoio em nossos dados e Helietta + Balfourodendron (outrora de outra subfamília) são mais relacionados a Esenbeckia, Raulinoa e Metrodorea (antigas Pilocarpinae) do que com Pilocarpus, relação sustentada pela presença de tricomas glandulares no pecíolo, cristais prismáticos romboédricos, carpelos conatos e apófises dorsais do fruto / Metrodorea A. St.-Hil. is a Neotropical genus of Rutaceae, with species that have compound or 1-foliolated leaves and heterophylly, in addition to an intriguing bud-protecting structure on its basis. Available molecular phylogenies for the family indicate a need in reviewing its traditional classification, which must find support in appropriate morphological synapomorphies that support the new established groups. We conducted a study of leaf ontogeny and morphoanatomy of Metrodorea and related groups, under a phylogenetic framework, with data available in the literature and obtained from standard techniques in plant anatomy. In leaf primordia, the base formation is followed by acropetal differentiation of leaflet primordia, two paired proximal and one terminal on 3-foliated leaves, but only the terminal one on simple and 1-foliolated leaves. Leaflets rudiments were observed in heterophyllous species of Metrodorea. In species of this genus, at the base of the leaf, the protective structure emerges as paired appendages, revealing a stipular condition. The number of leaflets is dependent upon a greater or lesser determination of leaf primordium and its reduction may have been favored by the loss of leaflets as consequence of a restriction of the space required for development. Metrodorea synapomorphies found were: aborted leaflets, vascularized intrapeciolar stipules, glandular hairs in the proximal and adaxial region of the petiole, petiolulated leaflets, two seeds per locule in the fruit and valvar aestivation of the corolla. Their infrageneric relations are discussed according to the location of the crystals, adherence of the base of the leaves and the presence or absence of trichomes on the leaf blade. The close-relationship of the genus with Raulinoa is supported by a greater number of morphological synapomorphies than with other genera. The monophyly of Esenbeckia finds no support in our data and Helietta + Balfourodendron (formerly of another subfamily) are more related to Esenbeckia, Raulinoa and Metrodorea (former Pilocarpinae) than Pilocarpus, and such relationship is sustained by the presence of glandular hairs on the petiole, rhombohedral prismatic crystals, conate carpels and dorsal apophysis of the fruit

Syftet med den här studien är att få en fördjupad kunskap om skolors didaktiska arbete med tidig läsundervisning samt vikten av god och relevant kompetens i arbetet med främjande aktiviteter för elevers läsutveckling. Studien baseras på en kvalitativ forskningsansats med semistrukturerade intervjuer med 15 informanter från tre olika skolor från tre olika kommuner. Resultatet av intervjuerna presenteras utifrån tre teman: tidig läsundervisning, kartläggning och bedömning samt kompetens och erfarenhet. I resultatet framgår att skolorna lägger stor vikt vid att elever redan i förskoleklass ska bli fonologisk medvetna samt att avkodning har en avgörande roll i den tidiga läsundervisningen. På skolorna framkommer ett större fokus på avkodning än på språkförståelse som enligt teorin The Simple View of Reading är beroende av varandra för att eleverna ska kunna utveckla en god läsförmåga. Studien visar även vikten av en god kompentens och ett strukturerat arbetssätt i undervisningen för att främja en god läsutveckling. Nationellt kartläggningsmaterial i språklig medvetenhet för förskoleklass, Nationellt bedömningsstöd i läs- och skrivutveckling i årskurs 1–3 och standardiserade test är viktiga verktyg för att följa läsundervisningens kvalitet. Resultat och efterföljande analyser av nationella kartläggnings-material och bedömningsstöd ger även skolorna en bild över vad skolan behöver utveckla i den tidiga läsundervisningen. Samtliga skolor tar del av aktuell forskning och säkerställer kompetensutveckling som främjar tidig läsundervisning.

Interventionsstudien syftade till att undersökta hur lästräningsmaterialet Wolff intensivprogram(WIP), påverkade ordavkodningsförmåga och läsförståelse hos elever i olika åldrar och med olikatyper av lässvårigheter i grundsärskola och grundskola. Studien syftade också till att undersöka hurmaterialet upplevdes av eleverna. Studien innefattade tre elever från grundsärskola och fyra eleverfrån grundskola, som genomgick sex veckors enskild intensiv lästräning enligt WIP. Metoden somanvändes i studien var en single subjekt-inspirerad design med multipel baseline, som är enexperimentell metod. Designen innebar att ingen kontrollgrupp användes utan varje elevstestresultat jämfördes endast med elevens tidigare resultat. För att undersöka elevernas upplevelserav materialet användes semistrukturerade intervjuer. Resultaten gällande elevernas ordavkodningoch läsutveckling analyserades kvantativt medan resultaten av intervjuerna analyserades kvalitativt.Resultatet av studien visade att interventionen hade en positiv effekt när det gällde ordavkodning avenstaka ord och läsning av sammanhängande text. Det visade också att materialet haft en positiveffekt på läsförståelsen. Intervjuresultaten visade att eleverna upplevde materialet som motiverandeoch att det hjälpt dem att bli bättre på att läsa. Alla elever har rätt att utveckla sin läsförmåga sålångt det går utifrån sina förutsättningar. Resultatet av studien visar att WIP går att använda i bådegrundsärskola och grundskola och att det kan hjälpa elever i olika åldrar och med olika typer avlässvårigheter att utveckla sin läsning i riktning mot målen i läroplanen.
