The functional perspective on attitudes suggests that individuals will be more persuaded by advertisements that match their individual needs or attitude functions. Although previous research provided correlational support for this functional approach, the current study aimed to provide a stronger, experimental test. A pilot study validated situational manipulations of the value-expressive and k...

We view match as an operator that takes two graph-like structures (e.g., XML schemas) and produces a mapping between the nodes of these graphs that correspond semantically to each other. Semantic schema matching is based on the two ideas: (i) we discover mappings by computing semantic relations (e.g., equivalence, more general); (ii) we determine semantic relations by analyzing the meaning (con...

Within “word-based”, “paradigm-based” or “abstractive” models of inflectional systems ( Blevins 2006 , 2016 ), only full inflected wordforms are considered primitives; subword strings treated not as distinct entities, but abstract generalisations inferred by speakers across multiple forms. These stand in contrast to “constructive” approaches, which proceed from individual, units words. An argum...

Predicting reservoir parameters accurately is of great significance in petroleum exploration and development. In this paper, we propose a parameter prediction method named fusional temporal convolutional network (FTCN). Specifically, first analyze the relationship between logging curves parameters. Then, build design fusion module to improve results curve inflection points, which integrates cha...

Background and aims The aim for this study was to assess the construct validity and reliability of the Health Dialogue Questionnaire (HDQ©) for eleventh grade in school through comparison of the HDQ© with Paediatric Quality Of Life Inventory (PedsQL™), Local monitoring of youth policy questionnaire (LUPP®), Health behaviour in Swedish school-aged children (HBSC©), Equal health (EH©) and The Swe...

We experimentally explore the effects and interactions of three variables considered important when bargaining over a jointly produced surplus: performance information, production uncertainties when translating performance into output, and subjective entitlements derived from the production process. We find that without performance information subjective entitlements are mostly mutually consist...

Purpose: We propose in this paper to analyze what are the factors that influence knowledge transfer both intra and intergenerational in family firms. The main objective is to establish a framework that can be used later in empirical research, although we maintain a completely theoretical approach in this paper Design/methodology/approach: This study, which is a comprehensive framework character...

A functional approach for the study of the random walks in random sceneries (RWRS) is proposed. Under fairly general assumptions on the random walk and on the random scenery, functional limit theorems are proved. The method allows to study separately the convergence of the walk and of the scenery: on the one hand, a general criterion for the convergence of the local time of the walk is provided...
