This article examines discourses associated with a new environmental movement, “Carbon Rationing Action Groups” (CRAGs). This case study is intended to contribute to a wider investigation of the emergence of a new type of language used to debate climate change mitigation. Advice on how to reduce one's “carbon footprint,” for example, is provided almost daily. Much of this advice is framed by the use of metaphors and “carbon compounds”—lexical combinations of at least two roots—such as “carbon finance” or “low carbon diet.” The study uses a combination of tools from frame analysis and lexical pragmatics within the general framework of ecolinguistics to compare and contrast language use on the CRAGs' website with press coverage reporting on them. The analysis shows how the use of such lexical carbon compounds enables and facilitates different types of metaphorical frames such as dieting, finance and tax paying, war time rationing, and religious imperatives in the two corpora.

The aim of the present study was to find out the level of lexical sophistication and the mean length of sentences used in compositions written by Finnish upper secondary school students of English. In addition, the present study investigated the possible relationship between the two abovementioned variables. The study at hand was longitudinal: as data, a set of 50 compositions were collected in 2014 from the same writers both in the first and the final year of upper secondary school, 25 in the first year and 25 in the final year. In the analysis, an internet-based program called VocabProfile was utilized in order to find out the lexical sophistication of the investigated students. To find out the mean length of sentence and the relationship between these two, I used Microsoft Excel. Findings of the present study include a minor decrease in the use of less frequent vocabulary and a slight increase in the use of the two most frequently appearing thousand words of English: both of these changes were 1.99 percentage points. As for the mean length of sentence, it grew by 1.28 words during upper secondary school. As for the relationship between the two variables, no clear correlations could be found. It became, however, relatively clear that the topic of the composition might have an effect on the results. Thus more research is needed to fully see the effect of lexical sophistication and mean length of sentence on one another. In addition, future research would benefit greatly if all investigated students wrote on the same topic.

Esta tese, elaborada a partir do nosso interesse em determinar os níveis de conhecimento linguístico das crianças à entrada e saída do primeiro ano de escolaridade, teve como objetivo verificar de que forma esse conhecimento influencia a aprendizagem da leitura e da escrita. Para tal, realizámos parte de dois testes que permitem avaliar as competências linguísticas de crianças que possuem o Português como Língua Materna, o Teste de Identificação de Competências Linguísticas (TICL), de Fernanda Leopoldina Viana (2004) e o Teste de Avaliação da Linguagem Oral (TALO), de Inês Sim-Sim (2003) numa turma a iniciar e a concluir o primeiro ano de escolaridade. Com a análise de dados almejamos concluir que os alunos que apresentam um capital lexical mais variado à entrada no primeiro Ciclo do Ensino Básico apresentam melhores resultados na aprendizagem da leitura e da escrita.

Sulla spinta dell’approvazione della legge italiana 47/2017 “Disposizioni in materia di misure di protezione dei minori stranieri non accompagnati”, questo lavoro è teso ad affrontare le complesse aspettative genitoriali e parentali sviluppatesi intorno al processo di categorizzazione MSNA di cui questa legge è diventata approdo giuridico. Le controverse aspettative di accompagnamento legatesi alla denominazione di “non accompagnato”, prese come aspetto scontato e assiomatico in molta parte della letteratura scientifica che utilizza l’acronimo, sono state qui intese come un nodo ambiguo e questionabile. Attraverso una ricerca e una metodologia antropologico-etnografica queste rappresentazioni contradditorie sono esplorate a partire da un “crocevia di campi” da queste interessati in un territorio amministrativo dell’Italia Settentrionale variamente frequentato tra 2018 e 2021. Insieme ad ambienti, metodi e sfide della ricerca locale, una prima sezione situa storicamente e contestualmente la categoria MSNA come fenomeno in sé piuttosto che come efficace espressione descrittiva di soggetti. Le due sezioni successive, dedicate rispettivamente alla neo-realtà di tutela volontaria e a quella di una comunità socio-educativa/di tipo familiare rivolta a persone di minore età, interrogano invece questi ambienti come spazi e tempi di elaborazione prima e negoziazione poi di rappresentazioni e pratiche relazionali e parentali molteplici.

La tesi è stata finalizzata allo studio delle caratteristiche qualitative e tecnologiche delle carni di polli appartenenti alle principali categorie commerciali presenti in Italia: pollo leggero allevato all’aperto (PLA, 1,8-2 kg), medio convenzionale (PMC, 2,5-2,8 kg) e pesante convenzionale (PPC, 3,5-3,8 kg). Da un totale di 12 lotti di carne avicola, sono stati selezionati 50 muscoli Pectoralis major/lotto (n=600) e sono suddivisi in 3 gruppi sperimentali corrispondenti alle categorie commerciali. Sul totale dei campioni è stata valutata l’incidenza delle principali anomalie della carne avicola: 25 petti/lotto sono stati utilizzati per la misurazione del pH, colore, drip e cooking loss e sforzo di taglio, i restanti sono stati destinati alla valutazione dello stato ossidativo della carne. L’incidenza e la gravità delle miopatie White Striping e Wooden Breast è risultata nettamente inferiore in PLA, rispetto a PMC e PCC, mentre non è stata osservata alcuna differenza significativa nell’incidenza di petti affetti da Spaghetti Meat. Il gruppo PLA ha fatto registrare valori di pH significativamente inferiori rispetto alle altre categorie, senza riflessi negativi sui parametri tecnologici della carne. La capacità di ritenzione idrica è risultata infatti più elevata nel gruppo PLA, come comprovato dai valori inferiori di drip e cooking loss rispetto ai gruppi PMC e PPC. I campioni del gruppo PLA hanno presentato differenze significative per quanto riguarda il colore, con particolare riferimento all’intensità dell’indice di giallo (b*) risultata superiore (P<0,01) rispetto alle altre categorie commerciali. Al contrario, il gruppo PPC ha mostrato livelli inferiori di ossidazione proteica e lipidica. In virtù di quest’ultimo aspetto, le carni della categoria commerciale PPC potrebbero essere destinate alla preparazione di prodotti a base di carne, mentre quelle del PPM presentano caratteristiche più favorevoli per la produzione di sezionati e preparazioni di carne.

The aim of this paper is to verify the level of text comprehension (reading and translation) in Portuguese, by native speakers of Spanish and vice-versa. The subjects are freshmen, from different fields (300 native speakers of Portuguese and 300 of Spanish), who have never studied the other language neither as a second (L2) nor as a foreign language (FL). The results show that, in each group of subjects, there is a high level of comprehension of the foreign language, which varies from 58% to 94%, depending on the context and on the lexical/semantic similarity (or difference) between the key-words in the texts used in this research.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the positive predictive value for BI-RADS (Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System) categories 3, 4 and 5, correlating mammographic and histological diagnosis in non-palpable breast lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Analytical-descriptive study of 169 women submitted to stereotactic localization for surgical biopsy of non-palpable breast lesions. Mammographic and histological findings were correlated, analyzing the predictive positive value for each category. RESULTS: Forty-two (24.8%) cases were diagnosed with breast cancer - only one in category 3, 19 in category 4, and 22 in category 5. The positive predictive value for categories 3, 4A, 4B, 4C and 5 were, respectively, 3.4%, 10.3%, 11.3%, 36% and 91.7%. Microcalcifications were the most frequent finding related to malignancy, present in 61.5% of these cases. CONCLUSION: The present study has demonstrated that BI-RADS allows a safe prediction of high suspicion of malignancy in lesions category 5 and low suspicion for category 3. As regards the category 4, the positive predictive value has shown a progressive increase in subcategories A, B and C, demonstrating that this subclassification represents an invaluable contribution for a more detailed and accurate assessment of lesions suspicious for malignancy.

Klopfer's differentiation of movement scores, among which inanimate movement integrating the minor movements group, was no doubt opportune and needed. Their peculiar meaning has been clearly stressed and enriched by Piotrowski in his reformulation of Rorschach variables. It is our belief that Rorschach himself would take such step. Our criteria for scoring this determinant are somewhat different of both Klopfer's and Piotrowski's. On the one hand, masks, facial traits, emotional expressions, body parts in motion are not entered there. On the other, we score as such human or animal movement, provided this does not originate in the blot shape directly, but in the subjective reaction against the sensed muscular tension. Basic requirement for this scoring is the kinesthetic component, as for Mever since Rorschach's elaboration; and common trait distinctive for any response to be so scored ? be it an abstraction, an inanimate object, an animal or human being ? must be the subjective way of feeling the movement: (a) intention, blocking, struggle for achieving, for instance, or (b) activity of nature elements. Due to this subjective meaning we use the symbol m'intead of mfor this category. We already find these two kinds (a) and (b) of movement responses in Rorschach's text, respectively in the Examplesand in his posthumous Contribution.Either may point to a flight from emotional stress or to outstanding mental ability.
