The impact of reference data errors on land-cover classifiers
Errors in thematically detailed land-cover maps have large consequences for downstream applications. Moreover, simulation-based studies suggest that land-cover classifiers are sensitive to errors in reference data. We (1) quantified the expected error from field interpretation of land-cover types; (2) the sensitivity of classifiers to reference data errors; and (3) the error transferred from reference data to classifiers. Lastly, we (4) recommend…

Peculiarities of Prosecution and Indictment of the President of the Slovak Republic: Is Current Legal Regulation Really Sufficient
In a democratic state following the principle of rule of law, every person (including state authorities) must bear a legal liability for an unlawful act committed. However, recent socio-political events in Slovakia have brought to the forefront a number of legal questions regarding the liability of the head of the state for his unlawful acts. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to examine the current legal regulation of presidential liability, wh…
A bevándorlás társadalmi, gazdasági és területi jellemzői Spanyolországban
Spanyolországra hosszú időn keresztül kivándorlás volt jellemző. A 17. és 18. században a latin-amerikai gyarmatok, később Nyugat-Európa, elsősorban Franciaország és Németország voltak a kivándorlás elsődleges célterületei. Az 1975-ös trendfordulót elsősorban a gazdasági fellendülés váltotta ki, de szerepe volt benne szabályozási, kulturális és történelmi tényezőknek is. A 2007-ben kitört gazdasági és pénzügyi válság újabb változást idézett elő: …

When Health Is an Attitudinal Matter: A Qualitative Research
Health and illness are complex constructs for which a biomedical approach alone is insufficient. The purpose of the present study was to explore how personal attitudes toward health and illness affect health experience. By adopting a constructivist perspective, we carried out individual semistructured interviews with 15 persons enrolled in a yoga class in northern Italy. We analyzed the interview data using interpretative phenomenological analysi…
Smer-Sd and Fidesz: The National Interests and Populism in the 2010 Parliamentary Elections
Ultra-Nationalism and Geopolitical Exceptionalism in Mečiar's Slovakia
Vladimír Meciar used a geopolitical theory positing Slovakia's unique strategic importance to support his ultranationalist regime. He believed that Slovakia could ignore EU and U.S. democratization demands because it would be the linchpin of a new Russo-German axis

Psychological Predictors of Internet Social Communication
This study investigated the relationship of traditional social behavior to social communication via the Internet in a completely wired campus where every professor uses computers in classroom teaching, each residence is wired to the Internet, and every student is issued a laptop computer. It has been suggested that shy and socially isolated individuals communicate more on the Internet because it provides some protection from social anxiety. Howev…
Nuclear weapons concerns, agency beliefs, and social responsibility values in disarmament activism
This study examined the roles of attitudes and beliefs in determining disarmament activism. It investigated the contributions of nuclear weapons concerns, perceptions of control, and social responsibility values to the determination of antinuclear activism beyond the effects of attitudes and attitude strength. It was found that concerns about the danger of nuclear weapons, perceptions of personal control, and social responsibility values accounte…
Antinuclear and Pronuclear Empowerment and Activism
This study tested the proposition that university undergraduates would have higher empowerment scores with regard to advocating for antinuclear rather than pronuclear weapons issues. In addition, empowerment would be a determining factor of antinuclear but not of pronuclear activism among these students. Two components of empowerment were assessed in a decision-making task, namely, intentions to deal with the problems of nuclear weapons and confi…
The Evaluation of Self-Monitoring Attributes
Eighty-six Canadian female undergraduates attributed self-monitoring traits to a target presented on videotape, and evaluated her in terms of liking. Attributed self-monitoring was negatively correlated with attraction to the target and was the only predictor of attraction in a multiple regression analysis. Multiple regression analyses with subscales of attributed self-monitoring as predictors suggested that the evaluations may be the result of t…
