The efficacy of a brief hazard perception interventional program for child bicyclists to improve perceptive standards Ghent University
On the role of perception and apperception in ubiquitous and pervasive environments University of Antwerp
Building on top of classic work on the perception of natural systems this paper addresses the role played by such quality in environments where change is the rule rather than the exception. As in natural systems, perception in software systems takes two major forms: sensory perception and awareness (also known as apperception). For each of these forms we introduce semi-formal models that allow us to discuss and characterize perception and ...
'Scandal sells books' : an analysis of the reception and perception of scandals surrounding literary prizes on social media Ghent University
Due to their role as traditional gatekeepers in the field of literary criticism, literary prizes are responsible for the institutionalised consecration of literary texts. They are increasingly topic of research (e.g Moser 2004, English 2005, Leinen 2010, Ducas 2013, Röhricht 2016, Sapiro 2016, Auguscik 2017, Childress et al. 2017, Kennedy-Karpat and Sandberg 2017, Rahmann 2017). The general discourse surrounding prizes, however, tends to be ...
Methodological preparation of a within-subject audiovisual cognition, reception and perception study University of Antwerp
In the past decade, cognitive empirical AVT research has been on the rise. The majority of these studies are between-subject studies, focused on subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing (SDH). The few experimental studies that are aimed at other audiences tend to have small sample sizes. Within-subject studies are rarely used in experimental AVT cognition, reception and perception research, although they can increase statistical power due to ...
The Oxford Movement: reception and perception in Catholic circles in nineteenth-century Belgium KU Leuven
© Cambridge University Press 2012. That the Oxford Movement aroused interest in nineteenth-century Belgium may come as a surprise. Yet our research indicates that the interest was both enthusiastic and intense, although it also requires some interpretation. This chapter consists of three sections. In the first section we outline the background in Belgian cultural and Church history to this remarkable interest. We then reflect briefly on the ...
Perceptions of power and power of perceptions: Foreign policies of the European Union and Russia in the shared neighbourhood KU Leuven
The study argues that the structural crisis in EU-Russia relations and their competition in the shared neighbourhood had major long-term implications for the regional dynamics in Wider Europe. The academic reflection of the ongoing processes has, however, been marked by a range of imbalances that conceal some important developments in the region. In particular, three such knowledge asymmetries are pointed out: overwhelming focus on normative ...
