Rats remember not wisely but too well     

Sarah Adams-pepper  Sylvain Gagnon  Susan Fore  H. L. Roitblat 《Learning & behavior》1992,20(4):363-372

Rats were trained in a three-alternative spatial delayed matching-to-sample task in a starburst maze. Samples consisted of rewarded forced choices of one arm, and retention was indicated by rats’ returning to that arm after a 90-sec delay. If a rat made an error on its first choice, it was returned to the start compartment and allowed a second choice. Unlike in previous experiments with this task, all three arms were available during the animals’ second choices. The rats tended to perseverate in their second choices by returning to the arm that they had erroneously visited on their first choice. In Experiment 1, the accuracy of second choices following first-choice errors was below chance during the first block of sessions, when a 90-sec delay intervened between the first choice and the second choice, and at chance during the second block of sessions, when a short (5–6 see) delay intervened between first and second choices. In Experiment 2, long-delay and short-delay sessions were randomly presented to naive subjects. Similar results were obtained. In both experiments, the tendency to repeat the erroneous first choice was greater when long delays separated the two choices than when short delays were used. The results suggest that rats make their first-choice errors because they erroneously encode or remember the location of the sample and that they base their second choices on the same erroneous-memory. The increase in perseveration at long delays implies some kind of rehearsal-like mechanism that slows forgetting of the memory controlling the first choice.  相似文献   

On the complementarity between online and offline music consumption: the case of free streaming     

Godefroy Dang Nguyen  Sylvain Dejean  François Moreau 《Journal of Cultural Economics》2014,38(4):315-330

From a representative survey of 2,000 individuals, we study whether consumption of music through streaming services, like Spotify or YouTube, is a substitute or a complement to physical music consumption modes, such as CDs and live music. Controlling for the taste for music, various socio-demographic characteristics and the usual determinants of music consumption either offline (radio, TV, friends/relatives) or online (online recommendations, social networks), our results show that free music streaming (where the consumer does not possess the music but only has access to it) has no significant effect on CD sales and affects positively live music attendance, but only for national or international artists who are more likely to be available on streaming services.  相似文献   

Application of Think Aloud Protocols for Examining and Confirming Sources of Differential Item Functioning Identified by Expert Reviews     

Kadriye Ercikan  Rubab Arim  Danielle Law  Jose Domene  France Gagnon  Serge Lacroix 《Educational Measurement》2010,29(2):24-35

This paper demonstrates and discusses the use of think aloud protocols (TAPs) as an approach for examining and confirming sources of differential item functioning (DIF). The TAPs are used to investigate to what extent surface characteristics of the items that are identified by expert reviews as sources of DIF are supported by empirical evidence from examinee thinking processes in the English and French versions of a Canadian national assessment. In this research, the TAPs confirmed sources of DIF identified by expert reviews for 10 out of 20 DIF items. The moderate agreement between TAPs and expert reviews indicates that evidence from expert reviews cannot be considered sufficient in deciding whether DIF items are biased and such judgments need to include evidence from examinee thinking processes.  相似文献

Comprendre l'éducation physique à partir de la comparaison: le cas de la France et de l' Espagne     

Sylvain Ayme  Claude Ferrand  Núria Puig  et Eric Reynes 《欧洲师范教育杂志》2009,32(2):187-201

Le but principal de cet article est de comparer à partir des textes législatifs, des enquêtes ministérielles et européennes, et des revues spécialisées en France et en Espagne les propriétés de deux organisations scolaires singulières nommées «éducation prioritaire» ainsi que les mises en ?uvre de l'éducation physique. En nous appuyant sur l'approche de la construction sociale, nous présentons comment ces deux pays européens organisent cet enseignement dans les milieux défavorisés. Une analyse des aspects visibles du système éducatif à l'aide d'indicateurs généralistes (organisation des études, formation des enseignants, dépenses publiques) aurait laissé envisager d'importantes différences. Cependant, la comparaison à l'aide d'indicateurs «plus fins» des mises en ?uvre de l'éducation physique dans les écoles traditionnelles (poids de l'éducation physique, préoccupations gouvernementales et celles des enseignants, programmes d'enseignement) puis dans les milieux difficiles ZEP et CAEP (choix didactiques et pédagogiques) indique de fortes similitudes. Ces différences de résultats soulignent l'intérêt des analyses comparatives secondaires et la nécessité de considérer des analyses détaillées.

The main aim of this study is to compare two particular school organisations labelled ‘priority education’ in France and Spain, in relation to physical education using laws, ministerial and European surveys, and specialised journals. The social constructivist approach has been used to describe how both these European countries organise the teaching of physical education in under‐privileged environments. The analysis of the visible aspects of these educational systems with general indicators (organisation of studies, teacher education, public expenses) seems to imply differences. However, the comparison using more detailed data in the implementation of physical education in traditional schools (weight of the physical education in the system, governmental and teachers concerns, teaching programmes) indicates strong similarities. In addition, didactic and pedagogic choices in physical education in under‐privileged schools appear to be quite similar. These results underline the interest of secondary comparative studies and the necessity of taking into account detailed analyses.  相似文献   

Validation of Weinbach's and Hanavan's Models for Computation of Physical Properties of the Forearm     

Diane Rodrigue  Micheline Gagnon 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(3):272-277

Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to validate the Weinbach and the Hanavan models for the determinations of the forearm volume and center of mass. The study was conducted using 20 forearms from six male and four female cadavers. Results from the present investigation indicate that Weinbach's model is more accurate than Hanavan's model in estimating forearm volume and center of mass. The relative location of the center of mass and the center of volume was also investigated with the Weinbach model and these centers were found to coincide. The Hanavan model should be used only in the cases where the shape of the forearm closely resembles that of a truncated cone.  相似文献   

Development and Validation of a Method for Determining Tridimensional Angular Displacements with Special Applications to Ice Hockey Motions     

Micheline Gagnon  Roland Doré  Roland Doré 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(2):136-143

Abstract

Tridimensional angular displacements of the skates were determined with a single cinecamera used in conjunction with two orthogonal rods attached to the rear part of the skater's boots. The method was based on the commutative law with the imposed restrictions that two of the angles were small in relation to the other one, and that a sequence of angular displacements was defined. This approach required the sole determinations of the planar coordinates of the three points delimiting the orthogonal rods. An experimental setup was designed to validate the method: the criterion angles were approximated with less than 2 degrees of error. Subsequently, the method was applied to a practical situation: the two-legged stop in ice hockey. The combination of this tridimensional method with instrumented strain gauge skates for the measurement of forces provides a new and powerful tool for performing kinetic analyses in tridimensional skating activities.  相似文献   

Hierarchical Mentoring: A Transformative Strategy for Improving Diversity and Retention in Undergraduate STEM Disciplines     

Zakiya S. Wilson  Lakenya Holmes  Karin deGravelles  Monica R. Sylvain  Lisa Batiste  Misty Johnson  Saundra Y. McGuire  Su Seng Pang  Isiah M. Warner 《Journal of Science Education and Technology》2012,21(1):148-156

In the United States, less than half of the students who enter into science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) undergraduate curricula as freshmen will actually graduate with a STEM degree. There is even greater disparity in the national STEM graduation rates of students from underrepresented groups with approximately three-fourths of minority students leaving STEM disciplines at the undergraduate level. A host of programs have been designed and implemented to model best practices in retaining students in STEM disciplines. The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Professors Program at Louisiana State University, under leadership of HHMI Professor Isiah M. Warner, represents one of these programs and reports on a mentoring model that addresses the key factors that impact STEM student attrition at the undergraduate level. By integrating mentoring and strategic academic interventions into a structured research program, an innovative model has been developed to guide STEM undergraduate majors in adopting the metacognitive strategies that allow them to excel in their programs of study, as they learn to appreciate and understand science more completely. Comparisons of the persistence of participants and nonparticipants in STEM curricular, at the host university and with other national universities and colleges, show the impact of the model’s salient features on improving STEM retention through graduation for all students, particularly those from underrepresented groups.  相似文献
