  abstract  = {'Complex systems are information processors' is a statement that is frequently made. Here we argue for the distinction between information processing-in the sense of encoding and transmitting a symbolic representation-and the formation of correlations (pattern formation/self-organisation). The study of both uses tools from information theory, but the purpose is very different in each case: explaining the mechanisms and understanding the purpose or function in the first case, versus data analysis and correlation extraction in the latter. We give examples of both and discuss some open questions. The distinction helps focus research efforts on the relevant questions in each case.},

  abstract  = {In a multisource, lagged design field study of 66 consulting teams, we investigated the role of leader mood in unlocking the performance potential of functionally diverse teams. In line with our hypotheses, we found that, given high levels of leader positive mood, functional diversity was positively related to collective team identification. In contrast, given high levels of leader negative mood, functional diversity was positively associated with information elaboration in teams. Furthermore, results showed that functional diversity was most strongly related to team performance when both leader positive mood and leader negative mood were high. This study highlights the value of examining seemingly contradictory leadership aspects in the effort to gain a fuller understanding of how to foster performance in diverse teams. Practitioner points To effectively lead diverse teams, leaders need to navigate between the need to promote unique ideas (i.e., information elaboration) and the simultaneous need to pull together diverse members towards a common identity. Leader mood addresses both of these needs. When the team leader exhibited a positive mood, team functional diversity was positively related to members' identification with the team. By contrast, when the team leader displayed a negative mood, team functional diversity was positively related to information elaboration. Over a 12-day period, diverse teams performed best when the leader showed both positive and negative mood. Leaders of diverse teams are required to be sensitive to the affective tone of their team and aware of how their emotional displays influence team members' moods and behaviours as well as team processes.},

  abstract  = {This study examines the discourse basis for referent accessibility and its relation to the choice of referring expressions by children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and typically developing children. The aim is to delineate how the linguistic and extra-linguistic context affects referent accessibility to the speaker. The study also examines the degree to which accessibility effects are modulated by cognitive factors such as working memory capacity. In the study, the contrast levels between the referent and a competitor (one contrast/two contrasts) and the syntactic prominence of the referent (subject/object position in the preceding question) were manipulated in an elicited production task. The results provide evidence that the referring expressions of children with ASD correlate with the discourse status of referents to a similar extent as in typically developing controls. All children were more likely to refer with lexical NPs to referents that contrasted on two levels with a highly prominent competitor, compared to referents that contrasted on one level. They were also more likely to produce pronouns for referents previously mentioned in the subject than the object position. The effect of both discourse factors was modulated by the age and working memory capacity of the children with and without ASD. Accordingly, the study suggests that children with ASD do not generally differ from children with typical development in their referential choices when the discourse status of a referent allows them to model the referent's accessibility from their own discourse perspective in a way that is modulated by working memory capacity.},

  abstract  = {Background: For omics experiments, detailed characterisation of experimental material with respect to its genetic features, its cultivation history and its treatment history is a requirement for analyses by bioinformatics tools and for publication needs. Furthermore, meta-analysis of several experiments in systems biology based approaches make it necessary to store this information in a standardised manner, preferentially in relational databases. In the Golm Plant Database System, we devised a data management system based on a classical Laboratory Information Management System combined with web-based user interfaces for data entry and retrieval to collect this information in an academic environment. Results: The database system contains modules representing the genetic features of the germplasm, the experimental conditions and the sampling details. In the germplasm module, genetically identical lines of biological material are generated by defined workflows, starting with the import workflow, followed by further workflows like genetic modification (transformation), vegetative or sexual reproduction. The latter workflows link lines and thus create pedigrees. For experiments, plant objects are generated from plant lines and united in so-called cultures, to which the cultivation conditions are linked. Materials and methods for each cultivation step are stored in a separate ACCESS database of the plant cultivation unit. For all cultures and thus every plant object, each cultivation site and the culture's arrival time at a site are logged by a barcode-scanner based system. Thus, for each plant object, all site-related parameters, e. g. automatically logged climate data, are available. These life history data and genetic information for the plant objects are linked to analytical results by the sampling module, which links sample components to plant object identifiers. This workflow uses controlled vocabulary for organs and treatments. Unique names generated by the system and barcode labels facilitate identification and management of the material. Web pages are provided as user interfaces to facilitate maintaining the system in an environment with many desktop computers and a rapidly changing user community. Web based search tools are the basis for joint use of the material by all researchers of the institute. Conclusion: The Golm Plant Database system, which is based on a relational database, collects the genetic and environmental information on plant material during its production or experimental use at the Max-Planck-Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology. It thus provides information according to the MIAME standard for the component 'Sample' in a highly standardised format. The Plant Database system thus facilitates collaborative work and allows efficient queries in data analysis for systems biology research.},

  abstract  = {Two experiments tested how faithfully German children aged 4; 5 to 5; 6 reproduce ditransitive sentences that are unmarked or marked with respect to word order and focus (Exp1) or definiteness (Exp2). Adopting an optimality theory (OT) approach, it is assumed that in the German adult grammar word order is ranked lower than focus and definiteness. Faithfulness of children's reproductions decreased as markedness of inputs increased; unmarked structures were reproduced most faithfully and unfaithful outputs had most often an unmarked form. Consistent with the OT proposal, children were more tolerant against inputs marked for word order than for focus; in conflict with the proposal, children were less tolerant against inputs marked for word order than for definiteness. Our results suggest that the linearization of objects in German double object constructions is affected by focus and definiteness, but that prosodic principles may have an impact on the position of a focused constituent.},

  abstract  = {1. Teil A - Theoretische Grundlegung der Arbeit Die wissenschaftliche Arbeit beginnt mit der Darstellung der Problemstellung und der Zielsetzung der wissenschaftlichen Arbeit. Es wird deutlich aufgezeigt werden, dass sich die Lehre des Qualit{\"a}tsmanagements (QM) nur sehr unzureichend mit den sozialen Aspekten der Information \& Kommunikation (I\&K) und dem organisatorischen Wandel besch{\"a}ftigt hat. Aus diesen beiden Unterkapiteln werden die Forschungsfragen abgeleitet und der weitere Aufbau der Arbeit konstruiert. (Kapitel 1). Aufgrund der Problemstellung startet das zweite Kapitel im Rahmen der theoretischen Grundlagen mit der sozialen Systemtheorie. Die Entscheidung f{\"u}r die soziale Systemtheorie wird begr{\"u}ndet. Im Zusammenhang mit den sozialen Aspekten der I\&K werden die relevanten Erkenntnisbeitr{\"a}ge der sozialen Systemtheorien als einzelne Komponenten vorgestellt. Diese Komponenten werden dann zu einem systemtheoretischen I\&K-Modell (SEM) zusammengef{\"u}gt. (Kapitel 2). Damit die beiden Disziplinen QM und soziale Systemtheorie miteinander verbunden werden k{\"o}nnen, bedarf es im dritten Kapitel der Dissertation einer Vorstellung der daf{\"u}r notwendigen und relevanten Inhalte des QM. Im Zuge der Vorstellung der Inhalte des QM werden diese bereits mit der sozialen Systemtheorie verkn{\"u}pft, um damit aufzuzeigen, wie QMS durch I\&K existieren und operieren (Kapitel 3). Das vierte Kapitel verbindet dann die beiden Disziplinen QM und soziale Systemtheorie miteinander, wodurch ein systemtheoretisches QM-Modell (SQM) entsteht. Dieses Modell erkl{\"a}rt den Zusammenhang von QM, I\&K und organisatorischem Wandel(Kapitel 4).   2. Teil B - Empirische Untersuchung F{\"u}r die empirische Untersuchung wird in Kapitel f{\"u}nf das allgemeine Forschungsdesign hergeleitet werden. Darauf folgt die Vorstellung des Aufbaus und der Abfolge von Interviews und eines Fragebogens (Kapitel 5). Das sechste Kapitel erkl{\"a}rt die Zielsetzung, Hintergrund und Methodik der Experteninterviews mit den Qualit{\"a}tsmanagementbeauftragten (QMB) und unter-sucht die g{\"a}ngige Praxis des QM bzgl. der sozialen Aspekte der I\&K. (Kapitel 6). Das Kapitel sieben erkl{\"a}rt die Zielsetzung, Hintergrund und Methodik der Interviews mit den Unternehmen der Best-Practise (BP). (Kapitel 7). Im Kapitel acht werden die Ursache und Wirkung der sozialen Aspekte der I\&K {\"u}ber die Unternehmenskultur im Rahmen eines QMS dargestellt. (Kapitel 8). Im Kapitel neun erfolgt ein Res{\"u}mee der empirischen Untersuchungen. Die Ergebnisse der empirischen Untersuchungen werden kritisch gew{\"u}rdigt. Des Weiteren wird aufgezeigt, welcher weitere empirische Forschungsbedarf aufgedeckt wurde.(Kapitel 9). 3. Teil C - Abschluss Der Schlussteil der Arbeit beginnt mit dem zehnten Kapitel durch die Herleitung und Begr{\"u}ndung von Verbesserungspotentialen und Handlungsempfehlungen f{\"u}r die Praxis im QM.(Kapitel 10). Im elften Kapitel erfolgt die Beantwortung der Forschungsfragen und der kritischen W{\"u}rdigung der generierten Erkenntnisse.(Kapitel 11). Im zw{\"o}lften Kapitel endet die Arbeit mit einem Ausblick auf weiteren Forschungsbedarf, welcher durch das Ergebnis dieser Arbeit entstanden ist (Kapitel 12).},
