In the Southern Bavarian variety of Tyrolean, laryngeal contrasts undergo a typologically interesting process of neutralisation in word-initial position. We undertake an acoustic analysis of Tyrolean stops in word-initial, word-medial intersonorant and word-final contexts, as well as in obstruent clusters, investigating the role of the acoustic parameters VOT, prevoicing, closure duration and F0 and H1–H2* on following vowels in implementing contrast, if any. Results show that stops contrast word-medially via [voice] (supported by the acoustic cues of closure duration and F0), and are neutralised completely in word-final position and in obstruent clusters. Word-initially, neutralisation is subject to inter- and intraspeaker variability, and is sensitive to place of articulation. Aspiration plays no role in implementing laryngeal contrasts in Tyrolean.

Objective: To verify if the nursing notes improved before and after a training of short duration and the factors those determine this change. Method: We analyzed 1551 reports/nursing notes in two inpatient units and two intensive care units. There was used a form in which there were recorded the adequacies or otherwise of the annotations in function of: the course, shift, professional category, and days of hospitalization of the patient. Results: We observed that there was improvement in the records made after the training course, with an increase of the adequacies. The intensive therapy units showed higher scores for appropriateness to the wards. The time of hospitalization of the patient eventually influences the scores of adequacies. The score of appropriateness of annotations was not different between the professional categories. Conclusion: The action of training of short duration was effective in improving the nursing notes, strengthening the role of continuous education in health services.
