Investigações sobre o papel da generalização funcional em uma situação de resolução súbita de problemas (insight) em Rattus norvegicus

A psicologia da aprendizagem foi marcada pelo debate sobre se a aprendizagem seria um processo gradual ou súbito. Enquanto os associacionistas defendiam a primeira proposta, os gestaltistas afirmavam a existência de situações de aprendizagem abruptas. Dentre os principais autores a defenderem esta possibilidade estava Wolfgang Köhler. Os trabalhos deste autor têm sido apontados como evidência de que a aprendizagem seria um processo súbito. Apesar da relevância destes trabalhos em demonstrar a existência de situações em que uma forma súbita de aprendizagem ocorra, muito se tem questionado sobre as conclusões apresentadas por ele para o porquê da ocorrência deste tipo de fenômeno comportamental. Dentre as muitas críticas feitas, a que tem recebido mais atenção refere-se à ausência de controle da história dos seus sujeitos experimentais, bem como à desconsideração do papel que esta história teria nos resultados encontrados. Estudos que investigaram este papel (Epstein et al., 1984 e Epstein & Medalie 1983, 1985) demonstraram que a resposta típica de insight podia ser o resultado da junção de repertórios aprendidos previamente. Os trabalhos de Epstein foram importantes em demonstrar que o insight seria uma junção de repertórios que se combinam em situações apropriadas pelo possível envolvimento de um processo conhecido como Generalização Funcional. O presente trabalho se propôs a investigar se a Generalização Funcional era realmente responsável pela interconexão dos repertórios que culminariam na resolução da tarefa de um modo considerado como súbito. Para tal foi feita uma replicação dos experimentos de Epstein, utilizando-se ratos como sujeitos. Os resultados mostraram que a Generalização Funcional parece ser um requisito necessário, mas não suficiente para a resolução súbita de problemas, de um modo considerado como insight".

On the Electrochemical Deposition and Dissolution of Divalent Metal Ions

The deposition of Cu2+ and Zn2+ from aqueous solution has been investigated by a combination of classical molecular dynamics, density functional theory, and a theory developed by the authors. For both cases, the reaction proceeds through two one-electron steps. The monovalent ions can get close to the electrode surface without losing hydration energy, while the divalent ions, which have a stronger solvation sheath, cannot. The 4s orbital of Cu interacts strongly with the sp band and more weakly with the d band of the copper surface, while the Zn4s orbital couples only to the sp band of Zn. At the equilibrium potential for the overall reaction, the energy of the intermediate Cu+ ion is only a little higher than that of the divalent ion, so that the first electron transfer can occur in an outer-sphere mode. In contrast, the energy of the Zn+ ion lies too high for a simple outer-sphere reaction to be favorable; in accord with experimental data this suggests that this step is affected by anions.

O leitor no tribunal subversivo de João Guimarães Rosa: a benfazeja à luz da teoria do efeito

By understanding the reader as a central link to the meaning of the literary text and with the opportunity to extend the relevance of such studies, this work aims at analyzing the short story A benfazeja, by João Guimarães Rosa, with subsidies from Aesthetic Response Theory, by Wolfgang Iser. It investigates how structures of the text conduct the reading, in a subversive manner, by technique, repertory of themes, allusions, inversions of expectations, determinations and “gaps”. It verifies that there is an allegorical court with a persuasive rhetoric, in which the defense lawyer not only intends to protagonist MulaMarmela’s absolution, but also an invitation to new ways to see and judge to implied reader, beyond obvious reason and prejudice.

THE PRESENT OF THE READING: BEAUTY AND CONTRADICTION

This article examines the metaphor of reading and new reading in Guimaraes Rosa's last book, Tutameia (1967), with a reading of the story "Desenredo". In the first part we discuss some theoretical issues concerning the place of the reader according to Wolfgang Iser and then show the singular place of the reader - metaphor of the activity of reading and fiction of an enunciative situation.

Underlying Event measurements in pp collisions at root s=0.9 and 7 TeV with the ALICE experiment at the LHC

We present measurements of Underlying Event observables in pp collisions at root s = 0 : 9 and 7 TeV. The analysis is performed as a function of the highest charged-particle transverse momentum p(T),L-T in the event. Different regions are defined with respect to the azimuthal direction of the leading (highest transverse momentum) track: Toward, Transverse and Away. The Toward and Away regions collect the fragmentation products of the hardest partonic interaction. The Transverse region is expected to be most sensitive to the Underlying Event activity. The study is performed with charged particles above three different p(T) thresholds: 0.15, 0.5 and 1.0 GeV/c. In the Transverse region we observe an increase in the multiplicity of a factor 2-3 between the lower and higher collision energies, depending on the track p(T) threshold considered. Data are compared to PYTHIA 6.4, PYTHIA 8.1 and PHOJET. On average, all models considered underestimate the multiplicity and summed p(T) in the Transverse region by about 10-30%.

Biogenic Potassium Salt Particles as Seeds for Secondary Organic Aerosol in the Amazon

The fine particles serving as cloud condensation nuclei in pristine Amazonian rainforest air consist mostly of secondary organic aerosol. Their origin is enigmatic, however, because new particle formation in the atmosphere is not observed. Here, we show that the growth of organic aerosol particles can be initiated by potassium-salt-rich particles emitted by biota in the rainforest. These particles act as seeds for the condensation of low- or semi-volatile organic compounds from the atmospheric gas phase or multiphase oxidation of isoprene and terpenes. Our findings suggest that the primary emission of biogenic salt particles directly influences the number concentration of cloud condensation nuclei and affects the microphysics of cloud formation and precipitation over the rainforest.

Translocation capture sequencing: A method for high throughput mapping of chromosomal rearrangements

Chromosomal translocations require formation and joining of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). These events disrupt the integrity of the genome and are involved in producing leukemias, lymphomas and sarcomas. Translocations are frequent, clonal and recurrent in mature B cell lymphomas, which bear a particularly high DNA damage burden by virtue of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) expression. Despite the ubiquity of genomic rearrangements, the forces that underlie their genesis are not well understood. Here, we provide a detailed description of a new method for studying these events, translocation capture sequencing (TC-Seq). TC-Seq provides the means to document chromosomal rearrangements genome-wide in primary cells, and to discover recombination hotspots. Demonstrating its effectiveness, we successfully estimate the frequency of c-myc/IgH translocations in primary B cells, and identify hotspots of AID-mediated recombination. Furthermore. TC-Seq can be adapted to generate genome-wide rearrangement maps in any cell type and under any condition. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
