摘要： Objectives: Optimally caring for oncology patients of culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds poses a unique set of challenges. We aimed to describe CALD gynecologic oncology patient characteristics and distress screening completion in a large, multicultural academic cancer center. Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients with a primary gynecologic malignancy treated in the medical, surgical, or radiation oncology and palliative care clinics at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre (PM), Toronto, Canada, from January 1 to December 31, 2019. Data was generated from electronic health records and other databases. Non-English patients were defined as those who listed a primary language on Electronic Patient Records other than English on initial registration. Edmonton Symptom Assessment System-revised (ESAS-r) was available in various languages, and completion rates were assessed and descriptive statistics performed. Results: In 2019, there were 19,343 patient visits recorded in gynecologic oncology clinics, and 4684 unique patients (mean visits per patient = 4.13). 1656 (8.6%) patient visits were registered as non-English speakers (376 [8.6%] out of 4684 unique patients) comprising more than 40 languages (Figure 1). Most common spoken languages were Mandarin (15.5%), Portuguese (11.6%), Cantonese (10.9%), Spanish (7.8%) and Italian (7.3%). ESAS-r completion rates in the gynecologic oncology clinics were lower in non-English (18.4%) than English (36%; p<0.001) patient visits. Of the most common spoken non-English language populations, ESAS-r completion rates were highest in Spanish patient visits (24%), followed by Mandarin (21.7%), Cantonese (20.6%), Portuguese (17.6%) and Italian (10.8%).

摘要： Speech perception entails the mapping of the acoustic waveform to linguistic representations. For this transformation to succeed, the speech signal needs to be tracked over various temporal windows at high temporal precision in order to decode linguistic units ranging from phonemes (tens of milliseconds) to sentences (seconds). Here, we tested the hypothesis that cortical processing of speech-specific temporal structure is modulated by higher-level linguistic analysis. Using fMRI, we measured BOLD signal changes to 4 s long speech quilts with variable temporal structure (30, 120, 480, 960 ms segment lengths), as well as natural speech, created from a familiar (English) or foreign (Korean) language. We found evidence for the acoustic analysis of temporal speech properties in superior temporal sulcus (STS): the BOLD signal increased as a function of temporal speech structure in both familiar and foreign languages. However, activity in left inferior gyrus (IFG) revealed evidence for linguistic processing of temporal speech properties: the BOLD signal increased as a function of temporal speech structure only in familiar, but not in foreign speech. Network connectivity analyses suggested that left IFG modulates the processing of temporal speech structure in primary and non-primary auditory cortex, which in turn sensitizes the analysis of temporal speech structure in STS. The results thus suggest that acousto-linguistic transformation of temporal speech structure is achieved by a cortical network comprising primary and non-primary auditory cortex, STS, and left IFG.

关键词： Sustainable natural rubber   Triple bottom line   Technical support   Fuzzy delphi method   Fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (FDEMATEL)  

摘要： Natural rubber development is facing sustainability challenges, such as price volatility, human rights violations, deforestation, and biodiversity loss. There is a lack of valid measurement attributes to assess sustainable natural rubber development. This study contributes to the literature by providing a set of sustainable natural rubber development attributes and determining a model of their causal interrelationships based on qualitative information. A mixed-method approach comprising the fuzzy Delphi method and the fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation technique is used to validate and map the attributes in the model. The findings indicate that technical support has the most significant influence on preventing the economic and social risks involved in natural rubber development. Furthermore, environmental sustainability and economic sustainability interact, and one cannot be achieved without the other. Promoting value addition, natural rubber quality, capital investment, marketing platforms, alternative income sources, attitudes towards change, and material consumption are significant criteria identified as priorities to enhance smallholder producers' sustainability. Theoretical and managerial implications are provided. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要： 语言学能是预测学生语言学习效果的最重要指标之一。调查某学院2018级新生的语言学能情况,经过2年的历时研究,分析语言学能与期间四次英语考试成绩的相关性。研究表明,语言学能对大学英语成绩具有持续性的显著影响。本文还用访谈法调查了低语言学能学生的英语学习困难情况。

关键词： 应用语言学   语言隐喻模式   特征分析   隐喻认知   语境依赖性  

摘要： 语言隐喻模式在真实语言语境中的运用与实践经验是其广泛应用的必经之路,研究应用语言学视角下语言隐喻模式及特征,有助于进一步发展隐喻理论。根据语言隐喻模式的研究现状,从应用语言学的角度分析了语言隐喻模式研究的必要性。基于必要性,结合已有的研究资料,从应用语言学的角度确定了语言隐喻模式的特征,将其归纳为认知阶段性、语境依赖性、空间指向性和经验性特征。从这四个特征出发,深化分析了语言主体与隐喻的关系,通过实践经验充分揭示了隐喻的本质和作用。
