Gleichsam als „Geschichte von unten“ wirkend, gibt die vorliegende Sammlung der Feldpostbriefe einen gefilterten Eindruck in das Seelenleben der Kriegsgeneration wieder. Sie ist als Kollektion badischer Soldatenbriefe in dieser Form bisher einmalig und erweitert das Wahrnehmungsspektrum der scheinbar in weiter Ferne und dennoch so nah liegenden „Urkatastrophe“ um eine weitere wichtige Nuance.

Here we analyse a 5,000-year transect of human genomes, sampled from petrous bones giving consistently excellent endogenous DNA yields, from 13 Hungarian Neolithic, Copper, Bronze and Iron Age burials including two to high (similar to 22x) and seven to similar to 1x coverage, to investigate the impact of these on Europe's genetic landscape. These data suggest genomic shifts with the advent of the Neolithic, Bronze and Iron Ages, with interleaved periods of genome stability. The earliest Neolithic context genome shows a European hunter-gatherer genetic signature and a restricted ancestral population size, suggesting direct contact between cultures after the arrival of the first farmers into Europe. The latest, Iron Age, sample reveals an eastern genomic influence concordant with introduced Steppe burial rites. We observe transition towards lighter pigmentation and surprisingly, no Neolithic presence of lactase persistence.

A1 - Kaufmann, Kerstin T1 - Dynamics of chromatin accessibility and gene regulation by MADS-domain transcription factors in flower development T2 - Zweitveröffentlichungen der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - Background: Development of eukaryotic organisms is controlled by transcription factors that trigger specific and global changes in gene expression programs. In plants, MADS-domain transcription factors act as master regulators of developmental switches and organ specification. However, the mechanisms by which these factors dynamically regulate the expression of their target genes at different developmental stages are still poorly understood. Results: We characterized the relationship of chromatin accessibility, gene expression, and DNA binding of two MADS-domain proteins at different stages of Arabidopsis flower development. Dynamic changes in APETALA1 and SEPALLATA3 DNA binding correlated with changes in gene expression, and many of the target genes could be associated with the developmental stage in which they are transcriptionally controlled. We also observe dynamic changes in chromatin accessibility during flower development. Remarkably, DNA binding of APETALA1 and SEPALLATA3 is largely independent of the accessibility status of their binding regions and it can precede increases in DNA accessibility. These results suggest that APETALA1 and SEPALLATA3 may modulate chromatin accessibility, thereby facilitating access of other transcriptional regulators to their target genes. Conclusions: Our findings indicate that different homeotic factors regulate partly overlapping, yet also distinctive sets of target genes in a partly stage-specific fashion. By combining the information from DNA-binding and gene expression data, we are able to propose models of stage-specific regulatory interactions, thereby addressing dynamics of regulatory networks throughout flower development. Furthermore, MADS-domain TFs may regulate gene expression by alternative strategies, one of which is modulation of chromatin accessibility.

A relational approach that concentrates on the social relations between terrorist organizations and their members would be able to do this, however. Therefore, the article presents a formal analysis that makes the “secret society” of terrorists the lynchpin of an explanation of how terrorist organizations shape the behavioral conditions of volunteers and suicide terrorists in a manner that triggers a type of behavior we might call terrorism. N2 - Les approches individualistes ne parviennent pas à produire d’explications satisfaisantes des dynamiques sociales qui sous-tendent les actes terroristes puisqu’elles ne fournissent pas d’analyses du terrorisme, mais des analyses sur les terroristes. C’est pourquoi cet article s’appuie sur l’analyse formelle de la « société secrète » telle que l’entend Simmel pour développer une explication sociologique qui éclaire la manière dont les relations sociales au sein des groupes terroristes façonne des structures d’opportunité de sorte à déclencher un acte qui peut être caractérisé de terroriste. N2 - Individualistische Ansätze können die sozialen Dynamiken terroristischen Handelns nur unzureichend erklären, da sie keine Terrorismusanalysen, sondern Analysen von Terroristen liefern. Der Aufsatz geht deshalb von Georg Simmels formaler Analyse der „Geheimen Gesellschaft“ aus und entwickelt auf dieser Grundlage eine soziologische Erklärung dafür, wie die sozialen Beziehungen innerhalb solcher Gruppierungen die Opportunitätsstrukturen ihrer Mitglieder so strukturieren, dass ein Handeln entsteht, das wir als terroristisch bezeichnen können.

Jahrhunderts bis 589 n. Chr., gehören die Westgoten einem von der Orthodoxie der Reichskirche abweichenden christlichen Bekenntnis an. Auf dem 3. Konzil von Toledo beendet König Rekkared diesen Zustand religiöser Alterität durch die Konversion zum Katholizismus. Die antiken Berichte zeichnen nur vordergründig ein kohärentes Bild des Christentums der Goten. Dagegen weist Eike Faber Widersprüche und Fehler in der Überlieferung nach und bietet eine Reihe neuer Interpretationen an. Die genauere Betrachtung vermag dabei sowohl den dogmatischen Gehalt des Christentums der Goten schärfer zu konturieren als auch die Beweggründe für die Annahme des neuen Glaubens herauszustellen und die traditionelle Datierung dieses Vorgangs zu widerlegen. Schließlich wird deutlich, welche Funktion das fortgesetzte Festhalten an einer demonstrativ anderen religiösen Überzeugung für die Goten hatte. Prägnante Wegmarken der gotischen Geschichte, wie die Bibelübersetzung Ulfilas, die Eroberung und Plünderung Roms 410 n. Chr. oder die demonstrative Aufgabe der religiösen Differenz durch König Rekkared, werden erst durch diesen neuen, umfassenden Kontext verständlich.

Mal der „Freideutsche Jugendtag“ auf dem Hohen Meißner. Am Rande dieses historischen Treffens, das als erste große Manifestation der „Deutschen Jugendbewegung“ gilt, kam es zu antisemitischen Ausfällen. In der Folge entstand erstmals ein „völkischer Flügel“ der Jugendbewegung. Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg gerieten weite Teile der Jugendbewegung, die sich nun als „Bündische Jugend“ begriff, in nationalistisches Fahrwasser und ließen sich für rechtsextreme Politik mobilisieren. 1933 in die Illegalität gezwungen, wandte sich die Mehrheit der seit 1945 wieder- oder neubegründeten Bünde und Verbände zwar der demokratischen Gesellschaft zu, rechtsextreme Jugendgruppen und Publizisten versuchten aber wiederholt, das jugendbewegte Erbe zu vereinnahmen. Der Sammelband wird das Spannungsfeld zwischen Jugendbewegung, Nationalismus und Antisemitismus ausleuchten, wobei erstmals auch jüngere bis jüngste Erscheinungen in den Blick genommen werden.

This article focuses on 3DGeoVSs built based on the principles of service-oriented architectures, standards and image-based representations (SSI) to address practically relevant challenges and potentials. Such systems facilitate resource sharing and agile and efficient system construction and change in an interoperable manner, while exploiting images as efficient, decoupled and interoperable representations. The software architecture of a 3DGeoVS and its underlying visualization model have strong effects on the system's quality attributes and support various system life cycle activities. This article contributes a software reference architecture (SRA) for 3DGeoVSs based on SSI that can be used to design, describe and analyze concrete software architectures with the intended primary benefit of an increase in effectiveness and efficiency in such activities. The SRA integrates existing, proven technology and novel contributions in a unique manner. As the foundation for the SRA, we propose the generalized visualization pipeline model that generalizes and overcomes expressiveness limitations of the prevalent visualization pipeline model. To facilitate exploiting image-based representations (IReps), the SRA integrates approaches for the representation, provisioning and styling of and interaction with IReps. Five applications of the SRA provide proofs of concept for the general applicability and utility of the SRA. A qualitative evaluation indicates the overall suitability of the SRA, its applications and the general approach of building 3DGeoVSs based on SSI.

BT - An initial observation on rhythmicity and projection T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe N2 - This paper reports a problematic case of unequivocally evidencing participant orientation to the projective force of some turn-initial demonstrative wh-clefts (DCs) within the framework of Conversation Analysis (CA) and Interactional Linguistics (IL). Conducting rhythmic analyses appears helpful in this regard, in that they disclose rhythmic regularities which suggest a speaker's orientation towards a projected turn continuation. In this particular case, rhythmic analyses can therefore be shown to meaningfully complement sequential analyses and analyses of turn-design, so as to gather additional evidence for participant orientations. In conclusion, I will point to possibly more extensive relations between rhythmicity and projection and proffer a tentative outlook for the usability of rhythmic analyses as an analytic tool in CA and IL.

T1 - Reconstruction and in vivo analysis of the extinct tbx5 gene from ancient wingless moa (Aves: Dinornithiformes) T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - Background The forelimb-specific gene tbx5 is highly conserved and essential for the development of forelimbs in zebrafish, mice, and humans. Amongst birds, a single order, Dinornithiformes, comprising the extinct wingless moa of New Zealand, are unique in having no skeletal evidence of forelimb-like structures. Results To determine the sequence of tbx5 in moa, we used a range of PCR-based techniques on ancient DNA to retrieve all nine tbx5 exons and splice sites from the giant moa, Dinornis. Moa Tbx5 is identical to chicken Tbx5 in being able to activate the downstream promotors of fgf10 and ANF. In addition we show that missexpression of moa tbx5 in the hindlimb of chicken embryos results in the formation of forelimb features, suggesting that Tbx5 was fully functional in wingless moa. An alternatively spliced exon 1 for tbx5 that is expressed specifically in the forelimb region was shown to be almost identical between moa and ostrich, suggesting that, as well as being fully functional, tbx5 is likely to have been expressed normally in moa since divergence from their flighted ancestors, approximately 60 mya. Conclusions The results suggests that, as in mice, moa tbx5 is necessary for the induction of forelimbs, but is not sufficient for their outgrowth. Moa Tbx5 may have played an important role in the development of moa’s remnant forelimb girdle, and may be required for the formation of this structure. Our results further show that genetic changes affecting genes other than tbx5 must be responsible for the complete loss of forelimbs in moa.

Up to now only. bulk. MIPs for TAM have been described in literature, which are applied for separation in chromatography columns. Electro-polymerisation of the monomers in the presence of TAM generated a film which completely suppressed the reduction of ferricyanide. Removal of the template gave a markedly increased ferricyanide signal, which was again suppressed after rebinding as expected for filling of the cavities by target binding. The decrease of the ferricyanide peak of the MIP electrode depended linearly on the TAM concentration between 1 and 100 nM. The TAM-imprinted electrode showed a 2.3 times higher recognition of the template molecule itself as compared to its metabolite 4-hydroxytamoxifen and no cross-reactivity with the anticancer drug doxorubucin was found. Measurements at + 1.1 V caused a fouling of the electrode surface, whilst pretreatment of TAM with peroxide in presence of HRP generated an oxidation product which was reducible at 0 mV, thus circumventing the polymer formation and electrochemical interferences.

A1 - Heinz, Andreas T1 - Dimensional psychiatry BT - reward dysfunction and depressive mood across psychiatric disorders T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - A dimensional approach in psychiatry aims to identify core mechanisms of mental disorders across nosological boundaries. We compared anticipation of reward between major psychiatric disorders, and investigated whether reward anticipation is impaired in several mental disorders and whether there is a common psychopathological correlate (negative mood) of such an impairment. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and a monetary incentive delay (MID) task to study the functional correlates of reward anticipation across major psychiatric disorders in 184 subjects, with the diagnoses of alcohol dependence (n = 26), schizophrenia (n = 44), major depressive disorder (MDD, n = 24), bipolar disorder (acute manic episode, n = 13), attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD, n = 23), and healthy controls (n = 54). Subjects' individual Beck Depression Inventory-and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-scores were correlated with clusters showing significant activation during reward anticipation. During reward anticipation, we observed significant group differences in ventral striatal (VS) activation: patients with schizophrenia, alcohol dependence, and major depression showed significantly less ventral striatal activation compared to healthy controls. Depressive symptoms correlated with dysfunction in reward anticipation regardless of diagnostic entity. There was no significant correlation between anxiety symptoms and VS functional activation. Our findings demonstrate a neurobiological dysfunction related to reward prediction that transcended disorder categories and was related to measures of depressed mood. The findings underline the potential of a dimensional approach in psychiatry and strengthen the hypothesis that neurobiological research in psychiatric disorders can be targeted at core mechanisms that are likely to be implicated in a range of clinical entities.

However the polymerase chain reaction remains laboratory-based and has to be conducted by trained personnel. Furthermore, the power dependency for the thermocycling process and the costly equipment necessary for the read-out are difficult to cover in resource-limited settings. This study aims to develop and evaluate a combination of isothermal nucleic acid amplification and simple lateral flow dipstick detection of the malaria parasite for point-of-care testing. Methods A specific fragment of the 18S rRNA gene of P. falciparum was amplified in 10 min at a constant 38°C using the isothermal recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) method. With a unique probe system added to the reaction solution, the amplification product can be visualized on a simple lateral flow strip without further labelling. The combination of these methods was tested for sensitivity and specificity with various Plasmodium and other protozoa/bacterial strains, as well as with human DNA. Additional investigations were conducted to analyse the temperature optimum, reaction speed and robustness of this assay. Results The lateral flow RPA (LF-RPA) assay exhibited a high sensitivity and specificity. Experiments confirmed a detection limit as low as 100 fg of genomic P. falciparum DNA, corresponding to a sensitivity of approximately four parasites per reaction. All investigated P. falciparum strains (n = 77) were positively tested while all of the total 11 non-Plasmodium samples, showed a negative test result. The enzymatic reaction can be conducted under a broad range of conditions from 30-45°C with high inhibitory concentration of known PCR inhibitors. A time to result of 15 min from start of the reaction to read-out was determined. Conclusions Combining the isothermal RPA and the lateral flow detection is an approach to improve molecular diagnostic for P. falciparum in resource-limited settings. The system requires none or only little instrumentation for the nucleic acid amplification reaction and the read-out is possible with the naked eye. Showing the same sensitivity and specificity as comparable diagnostic methods but simultaneously increasing reaction speed and dramatically reducing assay requirements, the method has potential to become a true point-of-care test for the malaria parasite.

For assessing potential changes in flood risk, this paper presents an integrated model chain quantifying flood hazards and losses while considering climate and land use changes. In the case study region, risk estimates for the present and the near future illustrate that changes in flood risk by 2030 are relatively low compared to historic periods. While the impact of climate change on the flood hazard and risk by 2030 is slight or negligible, strong urbanisation associated with economic growth contributes to a remarkable increase in flood risk. Therefore, it is recommended to frequently consider land use scenarios and economic developments when assessing future flood risks. Further, an adapted and sustainable risk management is necessary to encounter rising flood losses, in which non-structural measures are becoming more and more important. The case study demonstrates that adaptation by non-structural measures such as stricter land use regulations or enhancement of private precaution is capable of reducing flood risk by around 30 %. Ignoring flood risks, in contrast, always leads to further increasing losses-with our assumptions by 17 %. These findings underline that private precaution and land use regulation could be taken into account as low cost adaptation strategies to global climate change in many flood prone areas. Since such measures reduce flood risk regardless of climate or land use changes, they can also be recommended as no-regret measures.

However, stress drop calculations based on fault slip can be significantly biased, particularly due to subjectively determined smoothing conditions in the traditional least-square slip inversion. In this study, we introduce a mechanically constrained Bayesian approach to simultaneously invert for fault slip and stress drop based on geodetic measurements. A Gaussian distribution for stress drop is implemented in the inversion as a prior. We have done several synthetic tests to evaluate the stability and reliability of the inversion approach, considering different fault discretization, fault geometries, utilized datasets, and variability of the slip direction, respectively. We finally apply the approach to the 2010 M8.8 Maule earthquake and invert for the coseismic slip and stress drop simultaneously. Two fault geometries from the literature are tested. Our results indicate that the derived slip models based on both fault geometries are similar, showing major slip north of the hypocenter and relatively weak slip in the south, as indicated in the slip models of other studies. The derived mean stress drop is 5-6 MPa, which is close to the stress drop of similar to 7 MPa that was independently determined according to force balance in this region Luttrell et al. (J Geophys Res, 2011). These findings indicate that stress drop values can be consistently extracted from geodetic data.

Both stressful life events (SLES) and neural correlates of learning [specifically, a key mediator of adaptive learning in the brain, namely the ventral striatal representation of prediction errors (PE)] have been shown to be associated with individual differences in fluid IQ. Here, we examine the interaction between adaptive learning signals (using a well-characterized probabilistic reversal learning task in combination with fMRI) and SLES on fluid IQ measures. We find that the correlation between ventral striatal BOLD PE and fluid IQ, which we have previously reported, is quantitatively modulated by the amount of reported SLES. Thus, after experiencing adversity, basic neuronal learning signatures appear to align more closely with a general measure of flexible learning (fluid IQ), a finding complementing studies on the effects of acute stress on learning. The results suggest that an understanding of the neurobiological correlates of trait variables like fluid IQ needs to take socioemotional influences such as chronic stress into account.

At the same time Arabidopsis is a model plant with high frequencies of gene duplications. Here, we have conducted a systematic analysis of the Arabidopsis kinase complement, the kinome, with particular focus on gene duplication events. We matched Arabidopsis proteins to a Hidden-Markov Model of eukaryotic kinases and computed a phylogeny of 942 Arabidopsis protein kinase domains and mapped their origin by gene duplication. Results The phylogeny showed two major clades of receptor kinases and soluble kinases, each of which was divided into functional subclades. Based on this phylogeny, association of yet uncharacterized kinases to families was possible which extended functional annotation of unknowns. Classification of gene duplications within these protein kinases revealed that representatives of cytosolic subfamilies showed a tendency to maintain segmentally duplicated genes, while some subfamilies of the receptor kinases were enriched for tandem duplicates. Although functional diversification is observed throughout most subfamilies, some instances of functional conservation among genes transposed from the same ancestor were observed. In general, a significant enrichment of essential genes was found among genes encoding for protein kinases. Conclusions The inferred phylogeny allowed classification and annotation of yet uncharacterized kinases. The prediction and analysis of syntenic blocks and duplication events within gene families of interest can be used to link functional biology to insights from an evolutionary viewpoint. The approach undertaken here can be applied to any gene family in any organism with an annotated genome.

The purpose of this pilot study was to examine effects of a 7-week lower body PT on stable vs. unstable surfaces. This type of exercise condition may be denoted as metastable equilibrium. Methods Thirty-three physically active male sport science students (age: 24.1 ± 3.8 years) were randomly assigned to a PT group (n = 13) exercising on stable (STAB) and a PT group (n = 20) on unstable surfaces (INST). Both groups trained countermovement jumps, drop jumps, and practiced a hurdle jump course. In addition, high bar squats were performed. Physical fitness tests on stable surfaces (hexagonal obstacle test, countermovement jump, hurdle drop jump, left-right hop, dynamic and static balance tests, and leg extension strength) were used to examine the training effects. Results Significant main effects of time (ANOVA) were found for the countermovement jump, hurdle drop jump, hexagonal test, dynamic balance, and leg extension strength. A significant interaction of time and training mode was detected for the countermovement jump in favor of the INST group. No significant improvements were evident for either group in the left-right hop and in the static balance test. Conclusions These results show that lower body PT on unstable surfaces is a safe and efficient way to improve physical performance on stable surfaces.

Das zeigt sich unter anderem an der Zahl der Studieninteressierten. So haben sich allein in diesem Jahr mehr als 1 500 junge Leute auf einen der 44 Plätze für den Studiengang Medienwissenschaft an der Universität Potsdam beworben. Nach ihrem erfolgreichen Abschluss allerdings konkurrieren die Absolventen am Arbeitsmarkt mit Tausenden Abgängern anderer Hochschulen aus Film-, Medien- und Kommunikationsstudiengängen. Das sind allein in der Region Berlin-Brandenburg jährlich etwa 1 500. Doch nach jahrzehntelangem Boom der Medienbranche hat sich der Arbeitsmarkt im vergangenen Jahrzehnt drastisch verändert. Konjunkturkrise, Kursrückgänge und rückläufige Werbeinvestitionen schwächten die Medien deutlich. Es folgten daraus schlechte Gewinnergebnisse, Einsparungen und Personalreduzierung, insbesondere bei den Printmedien. Die Insolvenz der Frankfurter Rundschau oder die Einstellung der Financial Times Deutschland sind nur zwei eklatante Beispiele. Auf der anderen Seite boomt der dynamische Online-Markt aufgrund des veränderten Nutzerverhaltens insbesondere der jungen Generation, die ihre Informationen zunehmend aus Internet, Apps und sozialen Netzwerken gewinnen. Die Berufsaussichten für all Jene, die „Irgendwas mit Medien“ studieren wollen sind zwar aufgrund des Arbeitsmarktes schwieriger geworden, sie sind aber dennoch vielfältig. Guter Journalismus wird weiterhin benötigt und auch Öffentlichkeitsarbeiter sind gefragt. Darüber hinaus stehen Absolventen der Kommunikationswissenschaften die Türen in die Medienplanung oder in der Markt- und Meinungsforschung offen. Und nicht zuletzt sind Experten in der Online-Branche gefragt.

Dem liegt eine interaktionale Auffassung von Empathie zu Grunde: Empathie wird nicht als psychoemotionaler Zustand konzeptualisiert, sondern als Darstellung von Verstehen/ Verständnis/ Mitgefühl/ Mitleid in sozialer Interaktion. Gegenstand der Untersuchung ist die interaktive Bearbeitung persönlicher Erlebnisse in deutschen Alltagsgesprächen. Es wird gezeigt, dass – an spezifischen sequentiellen Positionen – Kombinationen folgender prosodisch-phonetischer Ressourcen potenziell relevant sind, um Äußerungen als empathisch, hier i.S.v.

N2 - This interactional-linguistic study aims at revealing which prosodic-phonetic resources can be used to make an utterance interpretable as a display of empathy when personal experiences are negotiated in German everyday interaction. Empathy refers to displays of understanding and/ or sympathy and/ or compassion for the emotional situation of the other. It will be shown that, in specific sequential positions, (clusters of) the following prosodic-phonetic resources are possibly relevant to make an utterance interpretable as affect-oriented and 'sympathetic': low and/ or decreasing volume/ diminuendo, low pitch register, flat contours, breathiness, creak, soft articulation, lengthening, lip rounding, rhythmic integration, legato.

Specifically, the prosody and phonetics of talk-in-interaction have become a field of study in its own right, with the majority of work to date focussing on the structuring of talk, turn-taking, and the contextualization of social practices, actions, genres, styles, affect etc. This volume presents an introduction to basic terms and concepts of prosodic-phonetic research as well as new contributions by young and established researchers in the field, for example, in the area of prosody and phonetics of affect display, public performance, institutional interaction, and sequence organisation. At the same time, it provides a survey of the methods currently employed and is thus aimed at students of language and interaction from a wide range of backgrounds as well as more experienced researchers and novices alike.

Conducting rhythmic analyses appears helpful in this regard, in that they disclose rhythmic regularities which suggest a speaker's orientation towards a projected turn continuation. In this particular case, rhythmic analyses can therefore be shown to meaningfully complement sequential analyses and analyses of turn-design, so as to gather additional evidence for participant orientations. In conclusion, I will point to possibly more extensive relations between rhythmicity and projection and proffer a tentative outlook for the usability of rhythmic analyses as an analytic tool in CA and IL.

T1 - The B fields in OB stars (BOB) survey T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - The B fields in OB stars (BOB) survey is an ESO large programme collecting spectropolarimetric observations for a large number of early-type stars in order to study the occurrence rate, properties, and ultimately the origin of magnetic fields in massive stars. As of July 2014, a total of 98 objects were observed over 20 nights with FORS2 and HARPSpol. Our preliminary results indicate that the fraction of magnetic OB stars with an organised, detectable field is low. This conclusion, now independently reached by two different surveys, has profound implications for any theoretical model attempting to explain the field formation in these objects. We discuss in this contribution some important issues addressed by our observations (e.g., the lower bound of the field strength) and the discovery of some remarkable objects.

Because the spelling of some word forms can differ between texts, a language model trained on already annotated treebanks may fail to recognize known word forms due to differences in spelling. In the present work, we explore the feasibility of an unsupervised method for spelling-adjustment for the purpose of improved part of speech (POS) tagging. To this end, we present a method for spelling normalization based on weighted edit distances, which exploits within-text spelling variation. We then evaluate the improvement in taging accuracy resulting from between-texts spelling normalization in two tagging experiments on several Early New High German (ENHG) texts.

November 2014 N2 - Recently, interest in collecting and mining large sets of educational data on student background and performance to conduct research on learning and instruction has developed as an area generally referred to as learning analytics. Higher education leaders are recognising the value of learning analytics for improving not only learning and teaching but also the entire educational arena. However, theoretical concepts and empirical evidence need to be generated within the fast evolving field of learning analytics. In this paper, we introduce a holistic learning analytics framework. Based on this framework, student, learning, and curriculum profiles have been developed which include relevant static and dynamic parameters for facilitating the learning analytics framework. Based on the theoretical model, an empirical study was conducted to empirically validate the parameters included in the student profile. The paper concludes with practical implications and issues for future research.

BT - Eine rechtsvergleichende Skizze aus deutscher und französischer Sicht JF - Liber Amicorum Otmar Seul : Die deutsch-französischen Rechtsbeziehungen, Europa und die Welt JF - Liber Amicorum Otmar Seul : Les relations juridiques franco-allemandes, l'Europe et le monde N2 - Ein wichtiges Anliegen aller Privatrechtsordnungen ist die Sicherheit und Verlässlichkeit des Gütertransfers. In einer entwickelten Wirtschaft, die auf Arbeitsteilung und Umsatz basiert, gibt es lange Lieferketten. Person A liefert ein Gut an B, dann liefert B an C und immer so weiter. Die einzelnen Glieder in der Kette müssen das Gut sicher und verlässlich erwerben können. Wenn nun aber das Geschäft zwischen A und B von Anfang an ungültig ist oder nachträglich hinfällig wird, stellt sich die Frage, wem das Gut gehört. Das deutsche Recht begegnet dieser Frage unter anderem mit dem Trennungs- und Abstraktionsprinzip: Kauf und Übereignung sind zwei gesonderte Verträge, und die Wirksamkeit der Übereignung ist unabhängig vom Bestand und von der Wirksamkeit des Kaufvertrag. Das wird von deutschen Juristen als Schlüssel wissenschaftlichen Rechtsdenkens hochgehalten, stößt aber außerhalb Deutschlands und speziell in Frankreich auf Unverständnis. Denn im französischen Recht sind Kauf und Übereignung Eins. Im Folgenden geht es nicht so sehr um die geistige Qualität des deutschen Trennungs- und Abstraktionsprinzips, die unbestreitbar ist, sondern vor allem um die Frage, ob diese Prinzi-pien im Vergleich zur französischen Einheit von Kauf und Übereignung praktische Vorteile haben. Die Untersuchung konzentriert sich auf die Übertragung von beweglichen Sachen und von Rechten. Das Grundstücksrecht bleibt dagegen ausgeklammert, denn es ist wegen seiner Formalien schwerer zu vergleichen und trägt keine grundlegend neuen Erkenntnisse bei.

Treatises about the essence of time fill whole libraries – and this magazine. However, questions of essence are alien to modern sciences. Time is – at least in physics – unproblematic: “Time is defined so that motion looks simple”, briefly and prosaically phrased, waves goodbye to Augustine’s riddle and to the Newtonian concept of absolute time, whose mathematical flow can only be approximately recorded with earthly instruments anyway. In our everyday language and even in science we still speak of the flow of time but time has not been a natural condition for quite a while now. It is rather a conventional order parameter for change and movement. Processes are arranged by using a class of processes as a counting system in order to compare other processes and to organize them with the help of the temporary categories “before”, “during”, and “after”. During Galileo’s time one’s own pulse was seen as the time standard for the flight of cannon balls. More sophisticated examination methods later made this seem too impractical. The distance-time diagrams of free-flying cannon balls turned out to be rather imprecise, difficult to replicate, and in no way “simple”. Nowadays, we use cesium atoms. A process is said to take one second when a caesium-133 atom completes 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between two hyperfine levels of the ground state. A meter is the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum in exactly 1/299,792,458 of a second. Fortunately, these data are hard-coded in the Global Positioning System GPS so users do not have to reenter them each time they want to know where they are. In the future, however, they might have to download an app because the time standard has been replaced by sophisticated transitions to ytterbium. The conventional character of the time concept should not tempt us to believe that everything is somehow relative and, as a result, arbitrary. The relation of one’s own pulse to an atomic clock is absolute and as real as the relation of an hourglass to the path of the sun. The exact sciences are relational sciences. They are not about the thing-initself as Newton and Kant dreamt, but rather about relations as Leibniz and, later, Mach pointed out. It is not surprising that the physical time standard turned out to be rather impractical for other scientists. The psychology of time perception tells us – and you will all agree – that the perceived age is quite different from the physical age. The older we get the shorter the years seem. If we simply assume that perceived duration is inversely related to physical age and that a 20-year old also perceives a physical year as a psychological one, we come to the surprising discovery that at 90 years we are 90 years old. With an assumed life expectancy of 90 years, 67% (or 82%) of your felt lifetime is behind you at the age of 20 (or 40) physical years. Before we start to wallow in melancholy in the face of the “relativity of time”, let me again quote Augustine. “But at any rate this much I dare affirm I know: that if nothing passed there would be no past time; if nothing were approaching, there would be no future time; if nothing were, there would be no present time.” Well, – or as Bob Dylan sings “The times they are a-changin”. I wish you an exciting time reading this issue.

Children enjoy listening to a story but when my children were about four years old they started asking whether the story really happened or was just invented. Likewise, only on a higher level, our academic curiosity is fuelled by our interest in knowing what is real. When we analyze poetic texts or dreams we are trying to distinguish between the facts (e.g. neurological ones or linguistic structures) and merely assumed influences. Ideally we can present results that were logically understood by others and that we can repeat empirically. But in most cases this is not possible. We cannot read every book and cannot look through every microscope, not even within our own discipline. In the world we live in we depend on trusting the information of others, like how to get to the train station or what the weather is like in Ulaanbataar. This is why we are used to believing others, our friends or the news anchors. This is not a childish behavior but a necessity. Of course, it is risky because they could all be lying to us, like in a Truman Show situation. The only time we are able to know that we are in reality is when we transcend our selfconsciousness and when we accept two propositions: first, that we are not only objects but also subjects in the consciousness of others and second that our dialogic relations are again observed by a third party that is not part of this intersubjective world. For religious people this is “belief” - belief as the assumption that all human relations only become real, serious and beyond any doubt if they know they are under the eyes of God. Only before Him something is in itself and not only “for me” or “among us”. That is why biblical language distinguishes between three forms of belief: the relationship with the world of things (“to believe that”), the relationship to the world of subjects (“to believe somebody”) and the assumption of a subjective supernatural reality (“to believe in” or “faith”). From an academic point of view belief is a holistic hypothesis. Belief is not the opposite of knowledge but it is the attempt to save reality from doubt by comprehending the fragile empirical world as an expression of a stable transcendent world. When I talk to students they often ask not only about what I know but what I believe. As a professor for Religious Studies and a believing Catholic I am caught in the middle. On the one hand, it is my duty as a professor to doubt everything, i.e. to attribute each religious text to its historical context and sociological functions. On the other hand, I, as a Christian, consider certain religious documents, in my case the Bible, an interpretable but nevertheless irreversible, revealed text about the origin of reality. On weekdays the New Testament is a collection of ancient writings among many others, on Sundays it is the revelation. You can make a clear distinction between these two perspectives but it is difficult to decide whether doubt or belief is more real. This issue of “Portal Wissen” explores this dual relationship of belief. What is the attitude of science towards belief – is it a religious one? Where does science bring things to light that we can hardly believe or that make us believe (again)? What happens if research clears up erroneous assumptions or myths? Is science able to investigate things that are convincing but inexplicable? How can it maintain its credibility and develop even so? These questions appear again and again in the contributions of this “Portal Wissen”. They form a manifold, exciting and surprising picture of the research projects and academics at the University of Potsdam. Believe me, it will be an enjoyable read.

Buch seiner „Confessiones“ melancholisch, und fährt fort „Wenn mich niemand danach fragt, weiß ich es; will ich einem Fragenden es erklären, weiß ich es nicht.“ Auch heute, 1584 Jahre nach Augustinus, erscheint 'Zeit' immer noch rätselhaft. Abhandlungen über das Wesen der Zeit füllen Bibliotheken. Oder eben dieses Heft. Wesensfragen sind den modernen Wissenschaften allerdings fremd. Zeit ist – zumindest in der Physik – unproblematisch. „Time is defined so that Motion looks simple“ erkärt man kurz und trocken, und verabschiedet sich damit vom Augustinischen Rätsel oder der Newtonschen Vorstellung einer absoluten Zeit, deren mathematischen Fluss man durch irdische Instrumente eh immer nur näherungsweise erfassen kann. In der Alltagssprache, selbst in den Wissenschaften, reden wir zwar weiterhin vom Fluss der Zeit, aber Zeit ist schon lange keine natürliche Gegebenheit mehr. Zeit ist vielmehr ein konventioneller Ordnungsparameter für Änderung und Bewegung. Geordnet werden Prozesse, indem eine Klasse von Prozessen als Zählsystem dient, um andere Prozesse mit ihnen zu vergleichen und anhand der temporären Kategorien „vorher“, „während“ und „nachher“ anzuordnen. Zu Galileis Zeiten galt der eigene Pulsschlag als Zeitstandard für den Flug von Kanonenkugeln. Mit zunehmender Verfeinerung der Untersuchungsmethoden erschien das zu unpraktisch: Die Weg-Zeit-Diagramme frei fliegender Kanonenkugeln erweisen sich in diesem Standard ziemlich verwackelt, schlecht reproduzierbar, und keineswegs „simpel“. Heutzutage greift man zu Cäsium-Atomen. Demnach dauert ein Prozess eine Sekunde, wenn ein 133Cs-Atom genau 9 192 631 770 Schwingungen zwischen zwei sogenannten Hyperfeinzuständen des Grundzustands vollführt hat. Und ein Meter ist die Entfernung, die Licht im Vakuum in exakt 1/299 792 458 Sekunden zurücklegt. Glücklicherweise sind diese Daten im General Positioning System GPS hart kodiert, so dass der Nutzer sie nicht jedes Mal aufs Neue eingeben muss, wenn er wissen will, wo er ist. Aber schon morgen muss er sich vielleicht ein Applet runterladen, weil der Zeitstandard durch raffinierte Übergänge in Ytterbium ersetzt wurde. Der konventionelle Charakter des Zeitbegriffs sollte nicht dazu verführen zu glauben, alles sei irgendwie relativ und daher willkürlich. Die Beziehung eines Pulsschlags zu einer Atomuhr ist absolut, und genauso real, wie die Beziehung einer Sanduhr zum Lauf der Sonne. Die exakten Wissenschaften sind Beziehungswissenschaften. Sie handeln nicht vom Ding an sich, was Newton und Kant noch geträumt haben, sondern von Beziehungen – worauf schon Leibniz und später Mach hingewiesen haben. Kein Wunder, dass sich für andere Wissenschaften der physikalische Zeit-Standard als ziemlich unpraktisch erweist. Der Psychologie der Zeitwahrnehmung entnehmen wir – und jeder wird das bestätigen können – dass das gefühlte Alter durchaus verschieden ist vom physikalischen Alter. Je älter man ist, desto kürzer erscheinen einem die Jahre. Unter der einfachen Annahme, dass die gefühlte Dauer umgekehrt proportional zum physikalischen Alter ist, und man als Zwanzigjähriger ein physikalisches Jahr auch psychologisch als ein Jahr empfindet, ergibt sich der erstaunliche Befund, dass man mit 90 Jahren 90 Jahre ist. Und – bei einer angenommenen Lebenserwartung von 90 Jahren – mit 20 (bzw. 40) physikalischen Jahren bereits 67 (bzw. 82) Prozent seiner gefühlten Lebenszeit hinter sich hat. Bevor man angesichts der „Relativität von Zeit“ selbst in Melancholie versinkt, vielleicht die Fortsetzung des Eingangszitats von Augustinus: „Aber zuversichtlich behaupte ich zu wissen, dass es vergangene Zeit nicht gäbe, wenn nichts verginge, und nicht künftige Zeit, wenn nichts herankäme, und nicht gegenwärtige Zeit wenn nichts seiend wäre.“ Tja – oder mit Bob Dylan „The times they're a changing“. Ich wünsche Ihnen eine spannende Zeit bei der Lektüre dieser Ausgabe.

Kinder lassen sich gern eine Geschichte erzählen, aber spätestens mit vier Jahren fragten meine, ob diese Geschichte so passiert sei oder nur erfunden. Das setzt sich fort: Auch unsere wissenschaftliche Neugier wird vom Interesse befeuert herauszufinden, was wirklich ist. Selbst dort, wo wir poetische Texte oder Träume erforschen, tun wir es in der Absicht, die realen sprachlichen Strukturen bzw. die neurologischen Faktoren von bloß vermuteten zu unterscheiden. Im Idealfall können wir Ergebnisse präsentieren, die von anderen logisch nachvollzogen und empirisch wiederholbar sind. Meistens geht das aber nicht. Wir können nicht jedes Buch lesen und nicht in jedes Mikroskop schauen, nicht einmal innerhalb der eigenen Disziplin. Wie viel mehr sind wir in der Lebenswelt darauf angewiesen, den Ausführungen anderer zu vertrauen, wenn wir wissen wollen, wo es zum Bahnhof geht oder ob es in Ulan Bator schön ist. Deshalb haben wir uns daran gewöhnt, anderen Glauben zu schenken, vom Freund bis zum Tagesschausprecher. Das ist kein kindliches Verhalten, sondern eine Notwendigkeit. Freilich ist das riskant, denn alle anderen könnten uns – wie in der „Truman- Show“ – anlügen. In der Wirklichkeit wissen wir uns erst dann, wenn wir unser Selbstbewusstsein verlassen und akzeptieren, dass wir erstens nicht nur Objekte, sondern Subjekte im Bewusstsein von anderen sind, und zweitens, dass alle unsere dialogischen Beziehungen noch einmal von einem Dritten betrachtet werden, der nicht Teil dieser Welt ist. Für Religiöse ist das der Glaube. Glaube als Unterstellung, dass alle menschlichen Beziehungen erst dann wirklich, ernst und über Zweifel erhaben sind, wenn sie sich vor den Augen Gottes wissen. Erst vor ihm ist etwas als es selbst und nicht nur „für mich“ oder „unter uns“. Daher unterscheidet die biblische Sprache drei Formen des Glaubens: die Beziehung zur Ding-Welt („glauben, dass“), die Beziehung zur Subjekt-Welt („jemandem glauben“) und die Annahme einer subjekthaften überirdischen Wirklichkeit („glauben an“). Wissenschaftstheoretisch gesehen ist Glaube also eine Totalhypothese. Glaube ist nicht das Gegenteil von Wissen, sondern der Versuch, Wirklichkeit vor dem Zweifel zu retten, indem man die fragile empirische Welt als Ausdruck einer stabilen transzendenten Welt begreift. Oft wollen Studierende in Gesprächen nicht nur wissen, was ich weiß, sondern, was ich glaube. Als Religionswissenschaftler und gleichzeitig gläubiger Katholik sitze ich zwischen den Stühlen: Einerseits ist es als Professor meine Aufgabe, alles zu bezweifeln, d.h. jeden religiösen Text auf seine historischen Kontexte und soziologischen Funktionen zurückzuführen. Andererseits hält der Christ in mir bestimmte religiöse Dokumente – in meinem Fall die Bibel – zwar für einen interpretierbaren, aber doch irreversiblen, offenbarten Text, der vom Ursprung der Wirklichkeit handelt. Werktags ist das Neue Testament eine antike Schriftensammlung neben vielen anderen, am Sonntag ist es die Offenbarung. Beides kann klar unterschieden werden, aber es ist schwer zu entscheiden, ob das Zweifeln oder das Glauben wirklicher ist. Das vorliegende Heft geht diesem doppelten Verhältnis zum Glauben nach: Wie steht Wissenschaft zum Glauben – ob religiös oder nicht? Wo bringt Wissenschaft Dinge ans Licht, die wir kaum glauben mögen oder uns (wieder) glauben lassen? Was passiert, wenn Forschung irrige Annahmen oder Mythen aufklärt? Ist Wissenschaft in der Lage, Dingen auf den Grund zu gehen, die zwar überzeugend, aber unerklärbar sind? Wie kann sie selbst glaubwürdig bleiben und sich dennoch weiterentwickeln? In den Beiträgen dieser „Portal Wissen“ scheinen diese Fragen immer wieder auf. Sie bilden ein vielfältiges, spannendes und auch überraschendes Bild der Forschungsprojekte und der Wissenschaftler an der Universität Potsdam. Glauben Sie mir, es erwartet Sie eine anregende Lektüre!

The first is based on linear moveout spectra to find the optimum ground wave velocity including uncertainties from multi-offset data gathers. We used synthetic data to illustrate the principles of the method and to investigate uncertainties in ground wave velocity estimates. To demonstrate the applicability of the approach to real data, we analyzed GPR data sets recorded at field sites in Canada over an annual cycle from Steelman & Endres [2010]. The results obtained by this efficient and largely automated procedure agree well with the manual achieved results of Steelman & Endres [2010], derived by a more laborious largely manual analysis strategy. Then we develop a second methodology to global invert reflection traveltimes with a particle swarm optimization approach more precise then conventional spectral NMO-based velocity analysis (e.g., Greaves et al. [1996]). For global optimization, we use particle swarm optimization (PSO; Kennedy & Eberhart [1995]) in the combination with a fast eikonal solver as forward solver (Sethian [1996]; Fomel [1997a]; Sethian & Popovici [1999]). This methodology allows us to generate reliability CMP derived models of subsurface velocities and water content including uncertainties. We test this method with synthetic data to study the behavior of the PSO algorithm. Afterward, We use this method to analyze our field data from a well constrained test site in Horstwalde, Germany. The achieved velocity models from field data showed good agreement to borehole logging and direct-push data (Schmelzbach et al. [2011]) at the same site position. For the third method we implement a global optimization approach also based on PSO to invert direct-arrival traveltimes of VRP data to obtain high resolution 1D velocity models including quantitative estimates of uncertainty. Our intensive tests with several traveltime data sets helped to understand the behavior of PSO algorithm for inversion. Integration of the velocity model to VRP reflection imaging and attenuation model improved the potential of VRP surveying. Using field data, we examine this novel analysis strategy for the development of petrophysical models and the linking between GPR borehole and other logging data to surface GPR reflection data. N2 - Unterschiedliche Verfahren zur Ermittlung von Georadar-Wellengeschwindigkeiten wurden entwickelt und erfolgreich angewendet. Für die Verfahren wurden statistische Methoden und Schwarmintelligenz-Algorithmen benutzt. Es wurde gezeigt, dass die neuen Verfahren schneller, präziser und besser reproduzierbare Ergebnisse für Georadar-Wellengeschwindigkeit erzielen als herkömmliche Verfahren. Mit verbesserten Werten der Georadar-Wellengeschwindigkeit lassen sich die verzerrten dreidimensionalen Abbilder der obersten zehn Meter des Untergrundes, welche sich mit Georadar-Daten erzeugen lassen, korrigieren. In diesen korrigierten Abbildern sind dann realistische Tiefen von Schichten oder Objekten im Untergrund besser messbar. Außerdem verbessern präzisere Wellengeschwindigkeiten die Bestimmung von Bodenparametern, wie Wassergehalt oder Tonanteil.

The isothermal RPA was applied to amplify specific target sequences from the pathogens Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Salmonella enterica and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) using genomic DNA. Additionally, a positive plasmid control was established as an internal control. The four targets were amplified simultaneously in a quadruplex reaction. The amplicon is labeled during on-chip RPA by reverse oligonucleotide primers coupled to a fluorophore. Both amplification and spatially resolved signal generation take place on immobilized forward primers bount to expoxy-silanized glass surfaces in a pump-driven hybridization chamber. The combination of microarray technology and sensitive isothermal nucleic acid amplification at 38 °C allows for a multiparameter analysis on a rather small area. The on-chip RPA was characterized in terms of reaction time, sensitivity and inhibitory conditions. A successful enzymatic reaction is completed in <20 min and results in detection limits of 10 colony-forming units for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enterica and 100 colony-forming units for Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The results show this method to be useful with respect to point-of-care testing and to enable simplified and miniaturized nucleic acid-based diagnostics.

Modern scholarship has often treated this as Stoic. Closer reading reveals that Quintus is, on the one hand, following the Homeric concept of double motivation, according to which humans can be motivated by a deity only to an act that conforms to their character and for which they are responsible. On the other hand, Quintus gives these statements on responsibility to characters who are trying to excuse their own acts to themselves and, particularly, to others, i.e. they are motivated contextually. It would be non-Stoic to excuse oneself for a bad deed by reference to an almighty fate. It seems that Quintus, by presenting this tension, wanted the reader to reconsider and reflect on the different concepts.

Still, the influence of these particles on our health and especially on our brain, has not been examined adequately up to now. We studied the influence of AgEO- (Ethylene Oxide) and AgCitrate-Nanoparticles (NPs) on the protective barriers of the brain, namely the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (blood-CSF) barrier in vitro. The NPs toxicity was evaluated by examining changes in membrane integrity, cell morphology, barrier properties, oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions. AgNPs decreased cell viability, disturbed barrier integrity and tight junctions and triggered oxidative stress and DNA strand breaks. However, all mentioned effects were, at least partly, suppressed by a Citrate-coating and were most pronounced in the cells of the BBB as compared to the epithelial cells representing the blood-CSF barrier. AgEO- but not AgCitrate-NPs also triggered an inflammatory reaction in porcine brain capillary endothelial cells (PBCEC), which represent the BBB. Our data indicate that AgNPs may cause adverse effects within the barriers of the brain, but their toxicity can be reduced by choosing an appropriate coating material.

Nahman b. Isaac (RNBI). RNBI's statement appears in two parallel sugyot in the BT (Nazir 23a; Horayot 10a). Each sugya has four textual witnesses. By comparing these textual witnesses, this paper will attempt to reconstruct the sugya's earlier (or, what some might term, original) dialectical form, from which the two familiar versions of the text in Nazir and Horayot evolved. This article reveals the specific ways in which, value-laden conceptualizations have a major impact on the Talmud's formulation, as we know it today.

T1 - Cluster-based reduced-order modelling of a mixing layer T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - We propose a novel cluster-based reduced-order modelling (CROM) strategy for unsteady flows. CROM combines the cluster analysis pioneered in Gunzburger's group (Burkardt, Gunzburger & Lee, Comput. Meth. Appl. Mech. Engng, vol. 196, 2006a, pp. 337-355) and transition matrix models introduced in fluid dynamics in Eckhardt's group (Schneider, Eckhardt & Vollmer, Phys. Rev. E, vol. 75, 2007, art. 066313). CROM constitutes a potential alternative to POD models and generalises the Ulam-Galerkin method classically used in dynamical systems to determine a finite-rank approximation of the Perron-Frobenius operator. The proposed strategy processes a time-resolved sequence of flow snapshots in two steps. First, the snapshot data are clustered into a small number of representative states, called centroids, in the state space. These centroids partition the state space in complementary non-overlapping regions (centroidal Voronoi cells). Departing from the standard algorithm, the probabilities of the clusters are determined, and the states are sorted by analysis of the transition matrix. Second, the transitions between the states are dynamically modelled using a Markov process. Physical mechanisms are then distilled by a refined analysis of the Markov process, e. g. using finite-time Lyapunov exponent (FTLE) and entropic methods. This CROM framework is applied to the Lorenz attractor (as illustrative example), to velocity fields of the spatially evolving incompressible mixing layer and the three-dimensional turbulent wake of a bluff body. For these examples, CROM is shown to identify non-trivial quasi-attractors and transition processes in an unsupervised manner. CROM has numerous potential applications for the systematic identification of physical mechanisms of complex dynamics, for comparison of flow evolution models, for the identification of precursors to desirable and undesirable events, and for flow control applications exploiting nonlinear actuation dynamics.

T1 - claspfolio 2 BT - advances in algorithm selection for answer set programming T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - Building on the award-winning, portfolio-based ASP solver claspfolio, we present claspfolio 2, a modular and open solver architecture that integrates several different portfolio-based algorithm selection approaches and techniques. The claspfolio 2 solver framework supports various feature generators, solver selection approaches, solver portfolios, as well as solver-schedule-based pre-solving techniques. The default configuration of claspfolio 2 relies on a light-weight version of the ASP solver clasp to generate static and dynamic instance features. The flexible open design of claspfolio 2 is a distinguishing factor even beyond ASP. As such, it provides a unique framework for comparing and combining existing portfolio-based algorithm selection approaches and techniques in a single, unified framework. Taking advantage of this, we conducted an extensive experimental study to assess the impact of different feature sets, selection approaches and base solver portfolios. In addition to gaining substantial insights into the utility of the various approaches and techniques, we identified a default configuration of claspfolio 2 that achieves substantial performance gains not only over clasp's default configuration and the earlier version of claspfolio, but also over manually tuned configurations of clasp.

In the present study, we evaluated the development of body weight and body composition and compared observed energy intake with predicted energy intake in forty-nine puppies from two breeds (twenty-four Labrador Retriever (LAB) and twenty-five Miniature Schnauzer (MS)). A total of four different diets with increasing vitamin A content between 5.24 and 104.80 mu mol retinol (5000-100 000 IU vitamin A)/4184 kJ (1000 kcal) metabolisable energy were fed from the age of 8 weeks up to 52 (MS) and 78 weeks (LAB). The daily energy intake was recorded throughout the experimental period. The body condition score was evaluated weekly using a seven-category system, and food allowances were adjusted to maintain optimal body condition. Body composition was assessed at the age of 26 and 52 weeks for both breeds and at the age of 78 weeks for the LAB breed only using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The growth curves of the dogs followed a breed-specific pattern. However, data on energy intake showed considerable variability between the two breeds as well as when compared with predicted energy intake. In conclusion, the data show that energy intakes of puppies particularly during early growth are highly variable; however, the growth pattern and body composition of the LAB and MS breeds are not affected by the intake of vitamin A at levels up to 104.80 mu mol retinol (100 000 IU vitamin A)/4184 kJ (1000 kcal).

Here we propose an approach of tight integration of GPS and accelerometer measurements. The baseline shifts of the accelerometer are introduced as unknown parameters and estimated by a random walk process in the Precise Point Positioning (PPP) solution. To demonstrate the performance of the new strategy, we carried out several experiments using collocated GPS and accelerometer. The experimental results show that the baseline shifts of the accelerometer are automatically corrected, and high precision coseismic information of strong ground motion can be obtained in real-time. Additionally, the convergence and precision of the PPP is improved by the combined solution.

The question is whether and, if so, to what extent monolingual and bilingual children differ with respect to noun and verb naming and whether a noun bias exists in the lexical abilities of bilingual children. Picture naming of objects and actions by Russian-German bilingual children (aged 4-7 years) was compared to age-matched monolingual children. The results clearly demonstrate a naming deficit of bilingual children in comparison to monolingual children that increases with age. Noun learning is more fragile in bilingual contexts than is verb learning. In bilingual language acquisition, nouns do not predominate over verbs as much as is seen in monolingual German and Russian children. The results are discussed with respect to semantic-conceptual aspects and language-specific features of nouns and verbs, and the impact of input on the acquisition of these word categories.

T1 - Trophic niche differentiation and microhabitat utilization revealed by stable isotope analyses in a dry-forest bat assemblage at Ankarana, northern Madagascar T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - Bats are important components in tropical mammal assemblages. Unravelling the mechanisms allowing multiple syntopic bat species to coexist can provide insights into community ecology. However, dietary information on component species of these assemblages is often difficult to obtain. Here we measuredstable carbon and nitrogen isotopes in hair samples clipped from the backs of 94 specimens to indirectly examine whether trophic niche differentiation and microhabitat segregation explain the coexistence of 16 bat species at Ankarana, northern Madagascar. The assemblage ranged over 4.4% in delta N-15 and was structured into two trophic levels with phytophagous Pteropodidae as primary consumers (c. 3% enriched over plants) and different insectivorous bats as secondary consumers (c. 4% enriched over primary consumers). Bat species utilizing different microhabitats formed distinct isotopic clusters (metric analyses of delta C-13-delta N-15 bi-plots), but taxa foraging in the same microhabitat did not show more pronounced trophic differentiation than those occupying different microhabitats. As revealed by multivariate analyses, no discernible feeding competition was found in the local assemblage amongst congeneric species as compared with non-congeners. In contrast to ecological niche theory, but in accordance with studies on New and Old World bat assemblages, competitive interactions appear to be relaxed at Ankarana and not a prevailing structuring force.

Yet, little is known about the processes involved in children's recognition of inflected words. To gain insight into how children process inflected words, the current study examines regular -t and irregular -n participles of German using the cross-modal priming technique testing 108 monolingual German-speaking children in two age groups (group I, mean age: 8;4, group II, mean age: 9;9) and a control group of.. adults. Although both age groups of children had the same full priming effect as adults for -t forms, only children of age group II showed an adult-like (partial) priming effect for -n participles. We argue that children (within the age range tested) employ the same mechanisms for regular inflection as adults but that the lexical retrieval processes required for irregular forms become more efficient when children get older.

We compared the performance of a group of English-speaking children with G-SLI (mean age: 12; 11) with that of two groups of younger typically developing (TD) children, matched on grammar and receptive vocabulary, respectively. All groups were more accurate on subject-extracted relative clauses than object-extracted ones and, crucially, they all showed greater accuracy for sentences with dissimilar number features (i.e., one singular, one plural) on the head noun and the embedded DP. These findings are interpreted in the light of current psycholinguistic models of sentence comprehension in TD children and provide further insight into the linguistic nature of G-SLI.

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.

However, unlike for native speakers, there are suggestions that purely orthographic prime-target overlap (scandal - scan) also produces priming in non-native visual word recognition. Our study directly compares orthographically related and derived prime-target pairs. While native readers showed morphological but not formal overlap priming, the two prime types yielded the same magnitudes of facilitation for non-natives. We argue that early word recognition processes in a non-native language are more influenced by surface-form properties than in one's native language.

The question arises as to whether these changes have already had an impact on the residents' ability to cope with floods, and whether flood-affected private households are now better prepared than they were in 2002. Therefore, computer-aided telephone interviews with private households in Germany that suffered from property damage due to flooding in 2005, 2006, 2010 or 2011 were performed and analysed with respect to flood awareness, precaution, preparedness and recovery. The data were compared to a similar investigation conducted after the flood in 2002. After the flood in 2002, the level of private precautions taken increased considerably. One contributing factor is the fact that, in general, a larger proportion of people knew that they were at risk of flooding. The best level of precaution was found before the flood events in 2006 and 2011. The main reason for this might be that residents had more experience with flooding than residents affected in 2005 or 2010. Yet, overall, flood experience and knowledge did not necessarily result in building retrofitting or flood-proofing measures, which are considered as mitigating damages most effectively. Hence, investments still need to be stimulated in order to reduce future damage more efficiently. Early warning and emergency responses were substantially influenced by flood characteristics. In contrast to flood-affected people in 2006 or 2011, people affected by flooding in 2005 or 2010 had to deal with shorter lead times and therefore had less time to take emergency measures. Yet, the lower level of emergency measures taken also resulted from the people's lack of flood experience and insufficient knowledge of how to protect themselves. Overall, it was noticeable that these residents suffered from higher losses. Therefore, it is important to further improve early warning systems and communication channels, particularly in hilly areas with rapid-onset flooding.

But not all extreme weather events lead to extreme ecosystem response. Here, we focus on hazardous ecosystem behaviour and identify coinciding weather conditions. We use a simple probabilistic risk assessment based on time series of ecosystem behaviour and climate conditions. Given the risk assessment terminology, vulnerability and risk for the previously defined hazard are estimated on the basis of observed hazardous ecosystem behaviour. We apply this approach to extreme responses of terrestrial ecosystems to drought, defining the hazard as a negative net biome productivity over a 12-month period. We show an application for two selected sites using data for 1981-2010 and then apply the method to the pan-European scale for the same period, based on numerical modelling results (LPJmL for ecosystem behaviour; ERA-Interim data for climate). Our site-specific results demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method, using the SPEI to describe the climate condition. The site in Spain provides an example of vulnerability to drought because the expected value of the SPEI is 0.4 lower for hazardous than for non-hazardous ecosystem behaviour. In northern Germany, on the contrary, the site is not vulnerable to drought because the SPEI expectation values imply wetter conditions in the hazard case than in the non-hazard case. At the pan-European scale, ecosystem vulnerability to drought is calculated in the Mediterranean and temperate region, whereas Scandinavian ecosystems are vulnerable under conditions without water shortages. These first model- based applications indicate the conceptual advantages of the proposed method by focusing on the identification of critical weather conditions for which we observe hazardous ecosystem behaviour in the analysed data set. Application of the method to empirical time series and to future climate would be important next steps to test the approach.

With the demand of offering the best potential of all systems, several not matching systems including their functions have to be aggregated and offered in a useable way. This paper presents an adaptive, generalizable and self-organized Personal Learning Environment (PLE) framework with the potential to integrate several heterogeneous services using a service-oriented architecture. First, a general overview over the field is given, followed by the description of the core components of the PLE framework. A prototypical implementation is presented. Finally, it’s shown how the PLE framework can be dynamically adapted to a changing system environment, reflecting experiences from first user studies.

Logistic regression was used to estimate pollen abundance thresholds for vegetation occurrence (presence or dominance), based on modern pollen data and present ranges of 14 taxa in China. Our investigation reveals marked changes in spatial and temporal distributions of the major arboreal taxa. The thermophilous (Castanea, Castanopsis, Cyclobalanopsis, Fagus, Pterocarya) and eurythermal (Juglans, Quercus, Tilia, Ulmus) broadleaved tree taxa were restricted to the current tropical or subtropical areas of China during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and spread northward since c. 14.5 kyr BP. Betula and conifer taxa (Abies, Picea, Pinus), in contrast, retained a wider distribution during the LGM and showed no distinct expansion direction during the Late Glacial. Since the late mid-Holocene, the abundance but not the spatial extent of most trees decreased. The changes in spatial and temporal distributions for the 14 taxa are a reflection of climate changes, in particular monsoonal moisture, and, in the late Holocene, human impact. The post-LGM expansion patterns in eastern continental China seem to be different from those reported for Europe and North America, for example, the westward spread for eurythermal broadleaved taxa.

T2 - The Holocene N2 - This study examines the course and driving forces of recent vegetation change in the Mongolian steppe. A sediment core covering the last 55years from a small closed-basin lake in central Mongolia was analyzed for its multi-proxy record at annual resolution. Pollen analysis shows that highest abundances of planted Poaceae and highest vegetation diversity occurred during 1977-1992, reflecting agricultural development in the lake area. A decrease in diversity and an increase in Artemisia abundance after 1992 indicate enhanced vegetation degradation in recent times, most probably because of overgrazing and farmland abandonment. Human impact is the main factor for the vegetation degradation within the past decades as revealed by a series of redundancy analyses, while climate change and soil erosion play subordinate roles. High Pediastrum (a green algae) influx, high atomic total organic carbon/total nitrogen (TOC/TN) ratios, abundant coarse detrital grains, and the decrease of C-13(org) and N-15 since about 1977 but particularly after 1992 indicate that abundant terrestrial organic matter and nutrients were transported into the lake and caused lake eutrophication, presumably because of intensified land use. Thus, we infer that the transition to a market economy in Mongolia since the early 1990s not only caused dramatic vegetation degradation but also affected the lake ecosystem through anthropogenic changes in the catchment area.

BT - differences and similarities of attacks in schools and in institutes of higher education T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - School attacks are attracting increasing attention in aggression research. Recent systematic analyses provided new insights into offense and offender characteristics. Less is known about attacks in institutes of higher education (e.g., universities). It is therefore questionable whether the term “school attack” should be limited to institutions of general education or could be extended to institutions of higher education. Scientific literature is divided in distinguishing or unifying these two groups and reports similarities as well as differences. We researched 232 school attacks and 45 attacks in institutes of higher education throughout the world and conducted systematic comparisons between the two groups. The analyses yielded differences in offender (e.g., age, migration background) and offense characteristics (e.g., weapons, suicide rates), and some similarities (e.g., gender). Most differences can apparently be accounted for by offenders’ age and situational influences. We discuss the implications of our findings for future research and the development of preventative measures.

School staff who are confronted with leaking have to assess its seriousness and react appropriately - a difficult task, because knowledge about leaking is sparse. The present study, therefore, examined how frequently leaking occurs in schools and how teachers identify leaking and respond to it. To achieve this aim, we informed teachers from eight schools in Germany about the definition of leaking and other warning signs and risk factors for school shootings in a one-hour information session. Teachers were then asked to report cases of leaking over a six- to nine-month period and to answer a questionnaire on leaking and its treatment after the information session and six to nine months later. Our results suggest that leaking is a relevant problem in German schools. Teachers mostly rated the information session positively and benefited in several aspects (e.g. reported more perceived courses of action or improved knowledge about leaking), but also expressed a constant need for support. Our findings highlight teachers' needs for further support and training and may be used in the planning of prevention measures for school shootings.

This article contributes to this literature by systematically identifying different conceptualizations of politicization and suggests a typology including three politicization mechanisms to strengthen the political responsiveness of the ministerial bureaucracy: formal, functional and administrative politicization. The typology is empirically validated through a comparative case analysis of politicization mechanisms in Germany, Belgium, the UK and Denmark. The empirical analysis further refines the general idea of Western democracies becoming ‘simply’ more politicized, by illustrating how some politicization mechanisms do not continue to increase, but stabilize – at least for the time being.

Despite a rapid growth in its use, very few data exist about the efficacy of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in these patients. We assessed the hypothesis that patients after TAVI benefit from CR, compared to patients after surgical aortic-valve replacement (sAVR). Methods From September 2009 to August 2011, 442 consecutive patients after TAVI (n=76) or sAVR (n=366) were referred to a 3-week CR. Data regarding patient characteristics as well as changes of functional (6-min walk test. 6-MWT), bicycle exercise test), and emotional status (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) were retrospectively evaluated and compared between groups after propensity score adjustment. Results Patients after TAVI were significantly older (p<0.001), more female (p<0.001), and had more often coronary artery disease (p=0.027), renal failure (p=0.012) and a pacemaker (p=0.032). During CR, distance in 6-MWT (both groups p0.001) and exercise capacity (sAVR p0.001, TAVI p0.05) significantly increased in both groups. Only patients after sAVR demonstrated a significant reduction in anxiety and depression (p0.001). After propensity scores adjustment, changes were not significantly different between sAVR and TAVI, with the exception of 6-MWT (p=0.004). Conclusions Patients after TAVI benefit from cardiac rehabilitation despite their older age and comorbidities. CR is a helpful tool to maintain independency for daily life activities and participation in socio-cultural life.

CKD carries prognostic relevance. We aimed to describe patient characteristics, risk factor management and control status of patients in cardiac rehabilitation (CR), differentiated by presence or absence of CKD. Design and methods: Data from 92,071 inpatients with adequate information to calculate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) based on the Cockcroft-Gault formula were analyzed at the beginning and the end of a 3-week CR stay. CKD was defined as estimated GFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2). Results: Compared with non-CKD patients, CKD patients were significantly older (72.0 versus 58.0 years) and more often had diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, and atherothrombotic manifestations (previous stroke, peripheral arterial disease), but fewer were current or previous smokers had a CHD family history. Exercise capacity was much lower in CKD (59 vs. 92Watts). Fewer patients with CKD were treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), but more had coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Patients with CKD compared with non-CKD less frequently received statins, acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), clopidogrel, beta blockers, and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and more frequently received angiotensin receptor blockers, insulin and oral anticoagulants. In CKD, mean low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol, and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were slightly higher at baseline, while triglycerides were substantially lower. This lipid pattern did not change at the discharge visit, but overall control rates for all described parameters (with the exception of HDL-C) were improved substantially. At discharge, systolic blood pressure (BP) was higher in CKD (124 versus 121 mmHg) and diastolic BP was lower (72 versus 74 mmHg). At discharge, 68.7% of CKD versus 71.9% of non-CKD patients had LDL-C <100 mg/dl. Physical fitness on exercise testing improved substantially in both groups. When the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula was used for CKD classification, there was no clinically relevant change in these results. Conclusion: Within a short period of 3-4 weeks, CR led to substantial improvements in key risk factors such as lipid profile, blood pressure, and physical fitness for all patients, even if CKD was present.

The reformation movement has seen the introduction of reforms in Indonesia's various governmental institutions, including the civil service. The civil service reforms were marked by the revision of Act 8/ 74 with Act 43 of 1999 on Civil Service Administration. The implementation of the civil service reform program, which was carried out by both central and local governments, required cooperation between the actors (in particular, Ministries, agencies and local governments), known as coordination. Currently, the coordination that occurs between actors tends to be rigid and hierarchical. As a result, targets are not efficiently and effectively met. Hierarchical coordination, without a strong public sector infrastructure, tends to have a negative impact on achieving the desired outcomes of the civil service reform program. As an intrinsic part of the New Order regime, hierarchical coordination resulted in inefficiency and lack of efficacy. Despite these inefficiencies, the administration and the political environment have changed significantly as a result of the reform process. Obvious examples of the reforms are changes in recruitment patterns, placement and remuneration policies. However, in the case of Indonesia, it appears that every state institution has its own policy. Thus, it appears that there has not been policy coherence in the civil service reform program, resulting in the lack of a sustainable program. The important thing to examine is how the coordination mechanisms of the civil service reform program in the central government have developed during the reform era in Indonesia The purpose of this study is to analyse the linkages between coordination mechanisms and the actual implementation of civil service reform programs. This is undertaken as a basis for intervention based on the structures and patterns of coordination mechanisms in the implementation of civil service reform programs. The next step is to formulate the development coordination mechanisms, particularly to create structures and patterns of civil service reforms which are more sustainable to the specific characteristics of public sector organisations in Indonesia. The benefits of this research are a stronger understanding of the linkages between the mechanisms of coordination and implementation of civil service reform programs. Through this analysis, the findings can then be applied as a basic consideration in planning a sustainable civil service reform program. In the basis of theoretical issues concerning the linkages between coordination mechanisms and implementation of civil service reform program sustainability, this book explores the type of coordination, which is needed to test the proportional and sustainable concept of the intended civil service reform program in Indonesia. Research conducted through studies, surveys and donors has shown that poor coordination is the major hindrance to the civil service program reform in Indonesia. This research employs a qualitative approach. In this study, the coordination mechanisms and implementations of civil service reform programs are demonstrated by means of case studies of the State Ministry for Administrative Reform, the National Civil Service Agency and the National Public Administration Institute. The coordination mechanisms in these Ministries and agencies were analysed using indicators of effective and efficient coordination. The analysis of the coordination mechanisms shows a tendency towards rigid hierarchical coordination. This raises concerns about fragmentation among departments and agencies at the central government level and calls for integrated civil service reform both at central and local governmental levels. In the context of implementation programs, a hierarchical mechanism of coordination leverages on various aspects, such as the program formulation, implementation flow of the program, the impact of policies, and achievement targets. In particular, there was a shift process of the mainstream civil service reform in the Ministries and agencies which are marked by the emergence of sectoral interest and inefficiencies in the civil service reform program. The primary result of successful civil service reform is increased professionalism in the civil service. The findings on hierarchical mechanisms and the prescriptions which will follow show that the professionalism of Indonesia’s civil service is at stake. The implementation of the program through coordination mechanisms in Ministries and agencies is measured in various dimensions: the centre of coordination, integration of coordination, sustainability of coordination and multidimensionality of coordination. The results of this analysis show that coordination mechanisms and the implementation of civil service reform are more successful when they are integration rather than hierarchical mechanisms. For a successful implementation of the reform program, it is crucial to intervene and change the type of coordination at the central government through the integration approach (hierarchy, market, and network). Furthermore, in order to move towards the integration type mechanism of coordination the separation of the administration and politics in the practice of good governance needs to be carried out immediately and simultaneously. Based on this analysis, it can be concluded that the integration type mechanism of coordination is a suitable for Indonesia for a sustainable civil service reform program. Finally, to achieve coherent civil service reforms, national policies developed according to the central government's priorities are indispensable, establishing a coordination mechanism that can be adhered to throughout all reform sectors. N2 - Seit dem Sturz des autoritären und dem Wechsel zum Regime des „New Order“ im Jahre 1998 haben die Reformbemühungen in der öffentlichen Verwaltung in Indonesien stark zugenommen. Ihren Ursprung nahmen sie mit der Revision des Gesetzes 8/74 und 43 im Jahre 1999 betreffend die Grundlagen der öffentlichen Verwaltung. Implementiert wurde die Reform sowohl durch die Zentralregierung als auch durch die Lokalregierungen. Jedoch erforderte die Implementierung dieses Programmes auch die Zusammenarbeit bzw. die Koordination verschiedener Akteure, wie beispielsweise Ministerien, Behörden, und Lokalregierungen. Die gegenwärtige Koordination zwischen diesen Akteuren ist rigide und hierarchisch. Daraus ergibt sich, dass die gesteckten Ziele nicht effizient und effektiv erreicht werden. Hierarchische Koordination ohne eine gefestigte Verwaltungsstruktur verhindert die Umsetzung des Reformprogrammes. Als intrinsisches Merkmal des „New Order“ Regimes führt die hierarchische Koordination zur Ineffizienz und einem Mangel an Effektivität. Trotz dieser Ineffizienzen haben die Reformen zu signifikanten Veränderungen in der Verwaltung und im politischen Umfeld geführt. Offensichtliche Beispiele der Verwaltungsreform sind Änderungen in der Einstellungs-, Beförderungs- und Entlohnungspraxis. Im Falle Indonesiens jedoch scheint jede einzelne Institution ihr eigenes Regelwerk zu besitzen. Dies deutet darauf hin, dass das Verwaltungsreformprogramm keine allzu große Kohärenz aufgewiesen hat. Es ist hierbei wichtig zu untersuchen wie die Koordinationsmechanismen dieses Programmes sich nach der Reformära in Indonesien entwickelt haben. Diese Studie hat die Absicht, die Verbindungen zwischen den Koordinationsmechanismen und den tatsächlichen Durchführung des Reformprogrammes der öffentlichen Verwaltung zu analysieren. Offensichtlich zeichnete sich dieseweder durch Kohärenz noch eine nachhaltige Implementierung aus. Es ist nun wichtig, eine Richtung zu bestimmen, wie die Koordinationsmechanismen sich entwickeln müssten um Strukturen und Mechanismen zu schaffen, die besser zu den spezifischen Charakteristiken der öffentlichen Verwaltungen in Indonesien passen. Diese Untersuchung trägt dazu bei, die Zusammenhänge zwischen Koordinationsmechanismen und des tatsächlichen Implementationserfolges von Reformprogrammen der öffentlichen Verwaltung zu verstehen. Ein solches Analyseergebnis kann dann zu nachhaltigen Reformbemühungen beitragen. Ausgehend von theoretischen Überlegungen bezüglich der Verbindung von Koordinationsmechanismen und der Implementierung von Reformprogrammen der öffentlichen Verwaltung, erforscht diese Studie verschiedene Aspekte des Koordinationstypus, der notwendig scheint, um das verhältnismäßige und nachhaltigeKonzept des beabsichtigten Reformprogrammes in Indonesien zu testen. Bisherige Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Koordination zeigt, dass das größte Hindernis für ein erfolgreiches Reformprogramm der öffentlichen Verwaltung ein Mangel an Koordination ist. Diese Studie wählt einen qualitativen Ansatz. Sie zeigt die Koordinationsmechanismen bei der Implementation von Reformprogrammen in der öffentlichen Verwaltung an den Fallbeispielen des „Staatsministeriums für Administrative Reformen“, der „Nationalen Agentur für den Öffentlichen Dienst“ und des „Nationalen Instituts für die Öffentliche Verwaltung“. Die Koordinationsmechanismen dieser Ministerien und Institute wurden dabei auf Grundlage von Indikatoren für effektive und effiziente Koordination untersucht. Die Analyse zeit tendenziell, dass die Koordination einerigide und hierarchische Form annimmt. Dies lässt Bedenken über die Fragmentierung der Abteilungen und Agenturen der Zentralregierung aufkommen und verdeutlicht die Notwendigkeit einer integrierten Reform der öffentlichen Verwaltung sowohl auf der Ebene der Zentralregierung als auch der Lokalregierungen. Im Kontext der Implementierungsbemühungen berührt eine hierarchische Koordination verschiedene Aspekte wie zum Beispiel die Formulierung des Programmes, der Ablauf der Implementation, der Einfluss des Regelwerks und die Erreichung der gesteckten Ziele. Insbesondere konnte beobachtet werden, dass sich der grundlegende Verwaltungsprozesses in den Ministerien und den Agenturen verlagert hat, was sich durch die Verstärkung sektoraler Interessen und zunehmender Ineffizienzen des Reformprogrammes ausdrückt. Das derzeitige Ergebnis ist im Wesentlichen eine zunehmende Professionalisierung des öffentlichen Dienstes. Die Befunde über hierarchische Mechanismen und die danach folgenden Vorgaben stellen die Professionalität des öffentlichen Dienstes in Indonesien in Frage. Die Implementierung des Reformprogrammes durch Koordinationsmechanismen in Ministerien und Agenturen werden auf mehreren Dimensionen gemessen: der Ausgangspunkt der Koordination, ihre Einbindung, Nachhaltigkeit und Mehrdimensionalität. Die Ergebnisse dieser Analyse zeigen, dass integrative Koordinationsmechanismen und Implementationen erfolgreicher sind als hierarchische. Um das restliche Reformprogramm erfolgreich zu einem Ende zu bringen, erscheint es wesentlich einzugreifen und die vorherrschende Koordination in der Zentralregierung durch einen integrativen Ansatz zu ersetzen (Hierarchie, Markt, Netzwerk). Darüber hinaus muss, um dies zu erreichen, die Trennung von Verwaltung und Politik im Sinne der guten Regierungsführung gleichzeitig umgesetzt werden. Auf Grundlage dieser Analyse kann gefolgert werden, dass der integrative Ansatz bei der Koordination geeignet erscheint, um das Reformprogramm der öffentlichen Verwaltung in Indonesien umzusetzen. Schlussendlich, um eine einheitliche Reform der öffentlichen Verwaltung zu erreichen bedarf es einer zentralen Koordinationsstrategie der Zentralregierung, die einheitlich in allen Reformsektoren befolgt wird.

However athletes will not always be willing to reporting their real opinions. Reaction time-based attitude tests help conceal the ultimate goal of measurement from the participant and impede strategic answering. This study investigated how well a reaction time-based attitude test discriminated between athletes who were doping and those who were not. We investigated whether athletes whose urine samples were positive for at least one banned substance (dopers) evaluated doping more favorably than clean athletes (non-dopers). Methods: We approached a group of 61 male competitive bodybuilders and collected urine samples for biochemical testing. The pictorial doping Brief Implicit Association Test (BIAT) was used for attitude measurement. This test quantifies the difference in response latencies (in milliseconds) to stimuli representing related concepts (i.e. doping-dislike/like-[health food]). Results: Prohibited substances were found in 43% of all tested urine samples. Dopers had more lenient attitudes to doping than non-dopers (Hedges's g = -0.76). D-scores greater than -0.57 (CI95 = -0.72 to -0.46) might be indicative of a rather lenient attitude to doping. In urine samples evidence of administration of combinations of substances, complementary administration of substances to treat side effects and use of stimulants to promote loss of body fat was common. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that athletes' attitudes to doping can be assessed indirectly with a reaction time-based test, and that their attitudes are related to their behavior. Although bodybuilders may be more willing to reveal their attitude to doping than other athletes, these results still provide evidence that the pictorial doping BIAT may be useful in athletes from other sports, perhaps as a complementary measure in evaluations of the effectiveness of doping prevention interventions.

It evolved through the hybridisation of two closely related sexual species and exhibits clonal reproduction by sperm dependent parthenogenesis (or gynogenesis) where the sperm of a parental species is only used to activate embryogenesis of the apomictic, diploid eggs but does not contribute genetic material to the offspring. Here we provide and describe the first de novo assembled transcriptome of the Amazon molly in comparison with its maternal ancestor, the Atlantic molly Poecilia mexicana. The transcriptome data were produced through sequencing of single end libraries (100 bp) with the Illumina sequencing technique. Results 83,504,382 reads for the Amazon molly and 81,625,840 for the Atlantic molly were assembled into 127,283 and 78,961 contigs for the Amazon molly and the Atlantic molly, respectively. 63% resp. 57% of the contigs could be annotated with gene ontology terms after sequence similarity comparisons. Furthermore, we were able to identify genes normally involved in reproduction and especially in meiosis also in the transcriptome dataset of the apomictic reproducing Amazon molly. Conclusions We assembled and annotated the transcriptome of a non-model organism, the Amazon molly, without a reference genome (de novo). The obtained dataset is a fundamental resource for future research in functional and expression analysis. Also, the presence of 30 meiosis-specific genes within a species where no meiosis is known to take place is remarkable and raises new questions for future research.
