Mothers' expansions were examined for their role in structuring conversational contributions and facilitating spontaneous imitations and productions of two-term semantic relations not previously used by their children. The subjects were four 2-year-old boys in late Stage 1 of linguistic development and their mothers. The investigation consisted of two studies. Study 1, a descriptive analysis of mother-child conversation, showed a contingent relationship between mothers' expansions and their children's use of spontaneous imitations. Study 2, an experimental procedure using a multiple baseline treatment design, showed that an increase in the mothers' expansions was systematically related to an increase in the children's initial spontaneous imitations of two-term semantic relations. Results also indicated that following the increase in spontaneous imitations, spontaneous productions of the two-term relations increased and were maintained, whereas spontaneous imitations subsequently decreased.

Discourse Strategy

A structured discourse strategy, employing child echoic imitations and adult expansion, was used to teach 5 autistic children two-term semantic relations. The 5 male preschoolers in late Stage I of linguistic development were exposed systematically to two-term semantic relations in a structured dialogue with a clinician. A combined multiple baseline and AB(A) design was used to examine the relationship between the clinician expansions and the children's subsequent spontaneous imitations and spontaneous productions. The results showed that an increase in modeling and expansion was related to an increase in the children's initial spontaneous imitations of two-term relations. Further, following the increase in spontaneous imitations, spontaneous productions of the two-term relations increased and were maintained, whereas spontaneous imitations subsequently decreased.

In this paper we present a description of the role of definitional verbal patterns for the extraction of semantic relations. Several studies show that semantic relations can be extracted from analytic definitions contained in machine-readable dictionaries (MRDs). In addition, definitions found in specialised texts are a good starting point to search for different types of definitions where other semantic relations occur. The extraction of definitional knowledge from specialised corpora represents another interesting approach for the extraction of semantic relations. Here, we present a descriptive analysis of definitional verbal patterns in Spanish and the first steps towards the development of a system for the automatic extraction of definitional knowledge.

The purpose of our study was to determine the effect of music (music with lyrics versus music with lyrics plus instruction) relative to on-task behaviors in preschool children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in a gross motor setting. Five preschool children (4 boys, 1 girl) diagnosed with ASD served as participants. A multiple baseline across participants in conjunction with an alternating-treatment design was used. For all participants, music with lyrics plus instruction increased on-task behaviors to a greater extent than did music with lyrics. The results of our study provide a better understanding of the role of music with regard to the behaviors of young children with ASD.

ABSTRAKKebutuhan akan lembaga notariat tidak terlepas dari kebutuhan akan perlunya pembuktian tertulis dalam lapangan hukum perdata. Mengingat keadaan ini maka notaris tidak saja berperan sebagai orang yang membuat alat bukti autentik namun juga sebagai penemu hukum. Notaris dalam profesinya sesungguhnya merupakan instansi yang dengan akta-aktanya menimbulkan alat-alat pembuktian tertulis dengan mempunyai sifat autentik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pelaksanaan penandatanganan akta notaris dalam pembuatan SKMHT dan akibat hukum penandatanganan akta SKMHT oleh penerima kuasa tidak di hadapan notaris dalam perjanjian kredit pemilikan rumah. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan yuridis normatif, sedangkan sifat dari penelitiannya sendiri bersifat deskriptif analisis. Penandatanganan akta notaris oleh penerima kuasa dalam akta SKMHT dimungkinkan untuk dilakukan tidak di hadapan notaris, karena lazimnya suatu akta SKMHT ada kaitannya dengan akta perjanjian kredit yang telah dibuat terlebih dahulu oleh para pihak. Akibat hukumnya penerima kuasa dalam akta SKMHT menjadi terikat untuk mematuhi ketentuan-ketentuan yang ada dalam SKMHT.Kata kunci: notaris, akta, perdata, kredit, perjanjian. ABSTRACTThe need for notarial institutions is inseparable from the need for the necessity of verification in the field of civil law. In view of this situation the notary not only plays the role of the person who makes authentic evidence but also the inventor of the law. Notary in his profession is in fact an institution which with its deeds evokes written proof means with authentic nature. This study aims to analyse the execution of the signing of notary deed in the making of SKMHT and the effect of the signing of SKMHT deed by the power of attorney not before the notary in the mortgage agreement. The method used in this study is the normative juridical approach, while the nature of the research itself is descriptive analysis. The signing of notarial deed by the power of attorney in the deed of SKMHT is possible to be done not in the presence of a notary, because usually a deed of SKMHT is related to the credit agreement which has been made beforehand by the parties. As a result of the law the power of attorney in the SKMHT deed becomes bound to comply with the provisions contained in SKMHT.Keywords: notary, deed, civil, credit, agreement.

This article discusses the augmenting influence of Artesunate (ART) in combination with β-lactams (amoxicillin/clavulanic acid) antibiotic in sepsis mice models infected by a lethal challenge dose of live coagulase positive enterotoxigenic (Sec) MRSA that was isolated from a case of chronic bovine mastitis. The main goal is to find an appropriate treatment to overcome resistance mechanism of MRSA towards β-lactams antibiotic. Fifty healthy adult Swiss mice divided into 5 equal groups were used in the experimental procedure. The infected group that treated with both ART and β-lactams (amoxicillin/clavulanic acid) antibiotic revealed complete inhibition of MRSA count with complete normal macroscopic and histopathological features. We suggest that ART can potentiate the antibacterial action of β-lactams (amoxicillin/Clavulanic) acid against MRSA infection. The combination of ART and antibiotic can overcome MRSA resistance mechanism and so could be considered a novel candidate to overcome mastitis and/or sepsis caused by MRSA.

The role of affect has been long studied in human–computer interactions. Unlike previous studies that focused on seven basic emotions, an avatar named Diana was introduced who expresses a higher level of emotional intelligence. To adapt to the users various affects during interaction, Diana simulates emotions with dynamic facial expressions. When two people collaborated to build blocks, their affects were recognized and labeled using the Affdex SDK and a descriptive analysis was provided. When participants turned to collaborate with Diana, their subjective responses were collected and the length of completion was recorded. Three modes of Diana were involved: a flat-faced Diana, a Diana that used mimicry facial expressions, and a Diana that used emotionally responsive facial expressions. Twenty-one responses were collected through a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and the NASA TLX. Results from questionnaires were not statistically different. However, the emotionally responsive Diana obtained more positive responses, and people spent the longest time with the mimicry Diana. In post-study comments, most participants perceived facial expressions on Diana’s face as natural, four mentioned uncomfortable feelings caused by the Uncanny Valley effect.
