Functional Projections Of Predicates: Experimental Evidence From Coordinate Structure Processing, Stanley William Dubinsky, Marie Egan, A. Rene Schumauder, Matthew J. Traxler

Faculty Publications

This paper reports the results of six experiments involving an on-line self-paced reading task that examine the processing of coordinate small clause predicate phrases versus coordinated arguments NPs. The results have particular significance for the analysis of small clause complement constructions, and support accounts wherein the small clause complement has an Agr projection associated with it. An adequate explanation of the processing of small clause coordination is shown to motivate a new parsing principle, Coordination Feature-matching, which accounts for the longer reading times observed for the coordination of predicates in small clause complements.

The Second Amendment: Structure, History, And Constitutional Change, David S. Yassky

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Part I of the Article engages the revisionists squarely on the turf they have staked out: the intent of those who framed and ratified the Second Amendment. Here I credit the revisionists with some important insights. Their research reminds us how greatly the world in which the Second Amendment was adopted differed from our own. This perspective helps us understand how the Founders could have placed the right to bear arms on par with the right to free speech--a decision that baffles many modern Americans. Yet while the revisionists correctly perceive that the right to keep and bear arms was …

The Japanese Law On Communications Interception During Criminal Investigatons: Translator's Introduction, Yohei Suda

Washington International Law Journal

Japan enacted the Law on Communications Interception During Criminal Investigations last year to help control organized crime. The legislation is, in part, a reaction to domestic and international pressure that grew from recent, well-publicized crimes such as the Aur Shinrikyo attack on a Tokyo subway. The Interception Law is a powerful tool for Japanese law enforcement, however the question of whether the Interception Law violates Japan's constitutional rights to privacy and secrecy of communication has not yet been resolved.

A Genre Study Of Ralph Ellison’S Invisible Man, Marilyn Faye Garrett

Theses (Pre-2016)

This study tests the hypothesis that Ralph Ellison's novel, Invisible Man, employs eclectic techniques, and is therefore a complex genre. Accordingly, the assumptions which undergird this investigation embrace notions attendant to folklore, myth and comedy. Testing these assumptions, the study proceeds with the following objectives: (1) , ,to isolate and identify major characteristics found in three genre of the literary canon, and (2) to focus on Jacques Lacan's theory of psychoanalysis and its applicability to the narratology of the novel. Specifically, there are three distinct concepts which shape the study. These are (1) Ellison's use of the blues in his …

Gender Differences In Presenting Symptoms, Treatment, And Outcome In Myocardial Infarction, Alona Dalusung-Angosta

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

The purposes of this study were to compare the presenting symptoms, treatment, and outcome between men and women with MI. The study sample consisted of 300 patients (N = 300) who were diagnosed with MI in a county hospital in the Southwest area of the United States.

Chest pain, shortness of breath, sweating, and left arm pain were the most common symptoms reported by both genders. Men had more chest pain than their women counterparts (p = .022). No significant difference was found in the cardiac enzyme levels between both genders. Men had more Q wave changes during MI than …

Environment, Cultures, And Social Change On The Great Plains: A History Of Crow Creek Tribal School, Robert W. Galler Jr.

Dissertations

This study explores the socio-cultural history of a school for Native American students on the Crow Creek Sioux Reservation in central South Dakota. The case study places the school's history (1886-present) within the context of the historic interaction between environment, cultures, and social change on the Great Plains.

This work focuses on a Catholic school and the multi-dimensional students and staff who constitute its story. These individuals acted neither as perpetually passive students nor simplistically sinister administrators. Instead, this dissertation broadly explores the challenging nature of intercultural relations that led to the founding of the school and how tribal/Catholic interactions …

Evaluation Of English Listening Proficiency Of Salc Users At Kmutt, Thailand, Charatdao Intratat

PASAA

It is widely accepted that a self-access center provides opportunities for the students to develop their English proficiency skills out of class. Even though a self-access center requires a large sum of budget and resources, its practical usefulness for language learners and its effect on the users' proficiency development have not been fully investigated. This preliminary study which was funded by KMUTT was a tentative attempt (1) to evaluate English listening proficiency of the KMUTT's Self-Access Learning Center (SALC) users, and (2) to investigate on the significance of the SALC's role in autonomous learning, particularly in developing English listening proficiency. …

Can The Communicative Approach Be Appropriate To Language Teaching?, Annabel Bhamani Kajornboon

PASAA

This paper is a reflective piece. Most ELT teachers are very devoted to their students, but most of the time they find themselves weary from teaching. Most teachers want to help and to improve their students' English; however, they are not sure how to do it. Hence, this paper explores some of the possibilities through the communicative approach. It makes an attempt to explain what this approach is and how it can be applied to the classroom; it looks both at its advantages and disadvantages.

Changing English, Linguistic Identity And Elt, John E. Joseph

PASAA

A crucial part of knowing a language is knowing how to interpret variation- what it means if someone uses one form rather than another to say the same thing. This paper examines four ongoing changes in spoken English, and what it means to be a user of the old form or the new one. We interpret the identity of the people with whom we speak based upon these minor differences, and we often assess the truth or validity of what they are saying based on our assessment. In this sense, the linguistic identity of speakers cannot be separated from the …

A Reflection On Team-Teaching In An Efl Classroom, Punchalee Wasanasomsithi

PASAA

Team-teaching is a versatile instructional approach that has been implemented in a variety of English language teaching and learning settings for different pedagogical and administrative purposes. Existing research claims that by extending the teaching competencies of teachers through group interaction and process sharing, the quality of instruction provided to the students can be improved. It is believed that this would, in turn, lead to promotion of not only the teaching but also the learning process. This paper reports on an experimental study in which the team-teaching technique was employed to teach a graduate English course at Chulalongkorn University. The students' …

Using Cooperative Concept Mapping Skill To Teach Esl Reading, Hua Tang

PASAA

Reading is now recognized as an important source of input for second language acquisition (Dupuy, Tse & Cook 1996; Krashen, 1993). Traditionally, reading has been taught as information retrieval. Primarily, it is the decoding of individual words that requires ESL students to approach a text using a dictionary (Mangelsdorf 1998). Now, in the new century, how should we teach ESL reading? How should we improve ESL students' academic proficiency in English? Students of this generation, different from students of the past, are more drawn with visual images, TV, music videos etc, so we need techniques that encourage reading. Concept mapping, …

Infant And Child Safety Practices Of Parents, Mohammed M. Jan, Fawzia H. Hasanain, Amal A. Al-Dabbagh

Saudi Medical Journal

OBJECTIVE: Accidental injuries are the leading cause of death among children. Many of these injuries could be prevented if the parents took additional safety precautions. We aimed to study the parent9s safety practices and explore the possible correlating and contributing factors to unfavorable safety behaviors. METHODS: Prospective interviews with the parents of infants seen consecutively during a routine well baby clinic visit were conducted using a structured 38-item questionnaire. RESULTS: Two hundred and eighty nine structured interviews were conducted and the mother was interviewed in 88% of cases. Only 4% of families had a smoke detector at home and 8% …
