Especially in functional-typological linguistics, semantic roles have been studied thoroughly, because they constitute a good starting point for any study on argument marking due to their semantically defined nature. However, the very concept of semantic roles is far from being without problems, and there is still no consensus on how the roles are best defined. In this volume, the notion will be discussed from novel perspectives with the aim of providing new insights into our understanding of semantic roles. Two of the papers deal with semantic role clusters, one with semantic roles in verbless constructions, one with diachrony of semantic roles and two with individual semantic roles that have not been studied in too much detail in previous studies. The book may not offer answers to all questions the readers may have, but at least it raises interesting further questions relevant to arriving at a better understanding of semantic roles.

The paper presents experience in teaching of knowledge and ontological engineering. The teaching framework is targeted on the development of cognitive skills that will allow facilitating the process of knowledge elicitation, structuring and ontology development for scaffolding students’ research. The structuring procedure is the kernel of ontological engineering. The 5-steps ontology designing process is described. Special stress is put on “beautification” principles of ontology creating. The academic curriculum includes interactive game-format training of lateral thinking, interpersonal cognitive intellect and visual mind mapping techniques.

Dimensionality reduction is a very important step in the data mining process. In this paper, we consider feature extraction for classification tasks as a technique to overcome problems occurring because of “the curse of dimensionality”. Three different eigenvector-based feature extraction approaches are discussed and three different kinds of applications with respect to classification tasks are considered. The summary of obtained results concerning the accuracy of classification schemes is presented with the conclusion about the search for the most appropriate feature extraction method. The problem how to discover knowledge needed to integrate the feature extraction and classification processes is stated. A decision support system to aid in the integration of the feature extraction and classification processes is proposed. The goals and requirements set for the decision support system and its basic structure are defined. The means of knowledge acquisition needed to build up the proposed system are considered.

Purpose: FcγR polymorphisms have been reported to enhance the immune-mediated effects of cetuximab in metastatic colorectal cancer. There are no data on the relationship between these polymorphisms and cetuximab in the early-stage setting. We performed a pharmacogenomic analysis of EXPERT-C, a randomized phase II trial of neoadjuvant CAPOX followed by chemoradiotherapy, surgery, and adjuvant CAPOX ± cetuximab in high-risk, locally advanced rectal cancer.
Experimental Design: FcγRIIa-H131R and FcγRIIIa-V158F polymorphisms were analyzed on DNA from peripheral blood samples. Kaplan–Meier method and Cox regression analysis were used to calculate survival estimates and compare treatment arms.
Results: Genotyping was successfully performed in 105 of 164 (64%) patients (CAPOX = 54, CAPOX-C = 51). No deviation from the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium or association of these polymorphisms with tumor RAS status was observed. FcγRIIa-131R (HR, 0.38; P = 0.058) and FcγRIIIa-158F alleles (HR, 0.21; P = 0.007) predicted improved progression-free survival (PFS) in patients treated with cetuximab. In the CAPOX-C arm, carriers of both 131R and 158F alleles had a statistically significant improvement in PFS (5 years: 78.4%; HR, 0.22; P = 0.002) and overall survival (OS; 5 years: 86.4%; HR, 0.24; P = 0.018) when compared with patients homozygous for 131H and/or 158V (5-year PFS: 35.7%; 5-year OS: 57.1%). An interaction between cetuximab benefit and 131R and 158F alleles was found for PFS (P = 0.017) and remained significant after adjusting for prognostic variables (P = 0.003).
Conclusion: This is the first study investigating FcγRIIa and FcγRIIIa polymorphisms in patients with early-stage colorectal cancer treated with cetuximab. We showed an increased clinical benefit from cetuximab in the presence of 131R and 158F alleles.

Background: RAS mutations predict resistance to anti-epidermal growthfactor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies in metastatic colorectal cancer. We analysed RAS mutations in 30 non-metastatic rectal cancer patients treated with or without cetuximab within the 31 EXPERT-C trial.
Methods: Ninety of 149 patients with tumours available for analysis were KRAS/BRAF wild-type, and randomly assigned to capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) followed by chemoradiotherapy, surgery and adjuvant CAPOX or the same regimen plus cetuximab (CAPOX-C). Of these, four had a mutation of NRAS exon 3, and 84 were retrospectively analysed for additional KRAS (exon 4) and NRAS (exons 2/4) mutations by using bi-directional Sanger sequencing. The effect of cetuximab on study end-points in the RAS wild-type population was analysed.
Results: Eleven (13%) of 84 patients initially classified as KRAS/BRAF wild-type were found to have a mutation in KRAS exon 4 (11%) or NRAS exons 2/4 (2%). Overall, 78/149 (52%) assessable patients were RAS wild-type (CAPOX, n = 40; CAPOX-C, n = 38). In this population, after a median follow-up of 63.8 months, in line with the initial analysis, the addition of cetuximab was associated with numerically higher, but not statistically significant, rates of complete response (15.8% versus 7.5%, p = 0.31), 5-year progression-free survival (75.5% versus 67.5%, hazard ratio (HR) 0.61, p = 0.25) and 5-year overall survival (83.8% versus 70%, HR 0.54, p = 0.20).
Conclusions: RAS mutations beyond KRAS exon 2 and 3 were identified in 17% of locally advanced rectal cancer patients. Given the small sample size, no definitive conclusions on the effect of additional RAS mutations on cetuximab treatment in this setting can be drawn and further investigation of RAS in larger studies is warranted.

In support of the achievement goal theory (AGT), empirical research has demonstrated psychosocial benefits of the mastery-oriented learning climate. In this study, we examined the effects of perceived coaching behaviors on various indicators of psychosocial well-being (competitive anxiety, self-esteem, perceived competence, enjoyment, and future intentions for participation), as mediated by perceptions of the coach-initiated motivational climate, achievement goal orientations and perceptions of sport-specific skills efficacy. Using a pre-post test design, 1,464 boys, ages 10-15 (M = 12.84 years, SD = 1.44), who participated in a series of 12 football skills clinics were surveyed from various locations across the United States. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) path analysis and hierarchical regression analysis, the cumulative direct and indirect effects of the perceived coaching behaviors on the psychosocial variables at post-test were parsed out to determine what types of coaching behaviors are more conducive to the positive psychosocial development of youth athletes. The study demonstrated that how coaching behaviors are perceived impacts the athletes’ perceptions of the motivational climate and achievement goal orientations, as well as self-efficacy beliefs. These effects in turn affect the athletes’ self-esteem, general competence, sport-specific competence, competitive anxiety, enjoyment, and intentions to remain involved in the sport. The findings also clarify how young boys internalize and interpret coaches’ messages through modification of achievement goal orientations and sport-specific efficacy beliefs.

Tutkimus käsittelee opettajien mahdollisuuksia käyttää oppimispelejä osana opetusta. Tutkimuksen perustana on projekti, jonka aikana kolme lukio-opettajaa suunnitteli ja toteutti oppimispelejä matematiikan, fysiikan ja äidinkielen oppitunneille. Tutkimuksessa selvitetään myös millaisessa asemassa oppimispelit ovat lukiossa, jossa on erinomaiset tietokoneresurssit käytettävissä. Tutkimuksen keskeisenä metodina on käytetty toimintatutkimusta. Tutkimus on kvalitatiivinen edeten induktiivisesti yksittäisestä yleiseen eli kerätyn aineiston tarkastelusta kohti laajempiin pohdintoihin opettajien mahdollisuuksista käyttää, suunnitella ja tuottaa oppimispelejä. Tutkimusaineistona toimii pelisuunnitteluprojektin aikana syntynyt tutkimuspäiväkirja, tutkimuskyselyn vastausaineisto ja puolistukturoitu asiantuntijahaastattelu. Tutkimus osoittaa, että opettajat kykenevät lyhyessä ajassa ulkopuolisen tutkijan ohjauksessa suunnittelemaan ja toteuttamaan omille oppitunneilleen sopivia oppimispelejä. Tutkimuksessa ilmeni myös, etteivät koulujen erinomaiset tietokoneresurssit yksistään johda oppimispelien käyttöön kouluissa. Keskeisin tutkimustulos on kuvaus toimintamallista, joka johti kolmen oppimispelin tuottamiseen kuukauden mittaisen pelisuunnitteluprojektin aikana. Tutkimuksessa on kuvattu pelisuunnittelun vaiheet ensimmäisestä suunnittelutapaamisesta valmiiden pelien pelaamiseen. Prosessin kuvaaminen mahdollistaa, että tulevissa pelisuunnitteluprojekteissa voidaan ottaa tämän tutkimuksen aikana toteutetusta projektista mallia.

Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää työriitalaissa säänneltävään ennakkoilmoitusvelvollisuuteen liittyviä ongelmakohtia. Aluksi selvennetään, mistä ennakkoilmoitus on ylipäänsä tehtävä, sillä velvollisuus ei liity kaikkiin työtaistelutoimenpiteisiin tai niiden laajentamiseen. Tämän lisäksi tarkastellaan, kenelle ennakkoilmoitus on osoitettava ja kenen on kyseinen velvollisuus täytettävä. Käsittelen ennakkoilmoitusvelvollisuutta niin työntekijä- kuin työnantajapuolen näkökulmasta. Ennakkoilmoitusvelvollisuus koskee molempia työmarkkinaosapuolia, vaikka työtaisteluoikeus yhdistetäänkin helpommin palkansaajapuolen oikeudeksi. Tutkimuksessa kuitenkin tarkastellaan työriitalakiin liittyviä ongelmakohtia enenevissä määrin työntekijäpuolen näkökulmasta. Käsittelen ennakkoilmoitusvelvollisuutta ensisijaisesti yksityisen sektorin näkökulmasta. Keskeisimpinä tutkimuskysymyksinäni on selvittää, mitä oikeusvaikutuksia ennakkoilmoituksen tekemisellä on ja mitä ennakkoilmoitusvelvollisuuden laiminlyönnistä voi ilmoitusvelvolliselle työmarkkinaosapuolelle seurata. Samalla arvioin nykysääntelylle asetettujen tavoitteiden legimiteettiä. Laiminlyönnin seuraamusten osalta keskityn erityisesti arvioimaan vahingonkorvausvelvollisuuden mahdollisuutta. Merkittävänä lähdeaineistona tutkielmassa on käytetty erityisesti kotimaista oikeuskirjallisuutta ja jossain määrin myös ulkomaalaista oikeuskirjallisuutta on hyödynnetty tarkasteltaessa vahingonkorvausvastuun mahdollisuutta muualla Euroopassa. Käytetystä oikeuskirjallisuudesta mainittakoon erityisesti Kari-Pekka Tiitisen ja Ilkka Ruposen teos Työriitojen sovittelu, joka on ainut laajempi kirjoitus työriitalaista sekä Seppo Koskisen artikkelit Työriitalain rikkominen ja vahingonkorvaus ja Työriitalain 7 §:n rikkomisesta: kuka rikkoo ja mitä? Vahingonkorvausvastuu soveltumisen osalta tarkastellaan tuoretta käräjäoikeuden ratkaisua, joka on tähän asti ainoa aihetta käsittelevä tuomioistuinratkaisu. Vahingonkorvausvastuun poissulkemiselle ei ole löydettävissä hyväksyttäviä perusteita. Rikkomalla työriitalain ennakkoilmoitusvelvollisuutta laiminlyödään työnseisaukselle asetettu ennakkoedellytys, minkä johdosta laiminlyöjä syyllistyy kriminalisoituun tekoon. Korvausvastuu tulee tällöin arvioitavaksi vahingonkorvauslain nojalla, koska sen soveltumista ei ole työriitalaissa suljettu pois. Korvausvastuun soveltuminen on omiaan vahventamaan työriitalain mukaista sovittelua ja antaa laittoman työnseisauksen kohteeksi joutuneelle tehokkaan oikeussuojakeinon.
