The Translatio imperii and the Spatial Construction of History in the Twelfth Century
(2024-03-13)
Based on the theories of Otto of Freising and Hugh of Saint Victor, scholars widely accept that medieval authors conceived of history as a spatial progression of empires from Babylon in the east to Rome in the west. This article reevaluates that assumption, arguing that influential German scholars of the 1930s to 1960s inflated the perceived typicality of Otto’s writing. We see first that this has obscured the biblical exegetical basis of Hugh’s own theory. Surveying contemporary material from hagiographies of Thomas ...

Leading in times of crisis and remote work: perceived consideration leadership behavior and its effect on follower work engagement
(2024-03-20)
Based on the job-demands resources theory, we examine whether leadership behavior affects followers' work engagement in the context of remote work during times of crisis, and how this effect can be explained. We focus on consideration leadership and its impact on followers' engagement under conditions of enforced remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therein, we examine the role of optimism as a potential mediator. To better understand how the impact of consideration leadership behavior unfolds during crises, we ...

Predicting treatment response using machine learning: A registered report
(2024)
Objective:
- Previous research on psychotherapy treatment response has mainly focused on outpatients or clinical trial data which may have low ecological validity regarding naturalistic inpatient samples. To reduce treatment failures by proactively screening for patients at risk of low treatment response, gain more knowledge about risk factors and to evaluate treatments, accurate insights about predictors of treatment response in naturalistic inpatient samples are needed. //
Methods:
We compared the performance ...

Contribution of membrane-associated oscillators to biological timing at different timescales
(2024-01-09)
Environmental rhythms such as the daily light-dark cycle selected for endogenous clocks. These clocks predict regular environmental changes and provide the basis for well-timed adaptive homeostasis in physiology and behavior of organisms. Endogenous clocks are oscillators that are based on positive feedforward and negative feedback loops. They generate stable rhythms even under constant conditions. Since even weak interactions between oscillators allow for autonomous synchronization, coupling/synchronization of ...

The Experience of Affordances in an Intersubjective World
(2023-10-20)
Our paper is concerned with theories of direct perception in ecological psychology that first emerged in the second half of the twentieth century. Ecological psychology continues to be influential among philosophers and cognitive scientists today who defend a 4E (embodied, embedded, extended, enactive) approach to the scientific study of cognition. Ecological psychologists have experimentally investigated how animals are able to directly perceive their surrounding environment and what it affords to them. We pursue ...

Designing a Co-creation System for the Development of Work-process-related Learning Material in Manufacturing
(2022-01-12)
The increasing digitalization and automatization in the manufacturing industry as well as the need to learn on the job has reinforced the need for much more granular learning, which has not yet impacted the design of learning materials. In this regard, granular learning concepts require situated learning materials to support self-directed learning in the workplace in a targeted manner. Co-creation approaches offer promising opportunities to support employees in the independent design of such situated learning materials. ...

Beharrlich, strategisch, integriert. Zur Vorhersage akademischer Studienadaptation von Lehramtsstudierenden durch Beharrlichkeit und den Einsatz von Lernstrategien
(2023-12-18)
Studienadaption als Anpassungsprozess an das universitäre Umfeld ist im Studium von großer Bedeutung, da eine mangelnde soziale oder akademische Adaption zum Studienabbruch führen kann. Der Zusammenhang der akademischen Studienadaption mit Aspekten strategischen Lernverhaltens, wie etwa der Nutzung von Lernstrategien und der Beharrlichkeit als Aspekt der Leistungsmotivation, wurde bisher nur unzureichend untersucht. Dieser Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, welche Lernstrategien in Kombination mit Beharrlichkeit ...

Quantitative analysis of the effect of foam morphology on the quasi-static and cyclic-dynamic tensile properties
(2024-02-28)
This study is the initial investigation into the relationship between the structure of foam and its quasi-static tensile and tension-tension fatigue properties. It is also the first examination of crack initiation and propagation in relation to various foam morphology patterns. The overall foam morphology and geometric appearance of the cell structure can be altered by varying the parameters of foam injection molding. Quantitative features of foam morphology are measured in terms of cell diameter, cell distance, cell ...
