The following study is based on a sample of 241 9-13-year-old children (66 children from divorced parents, 175 children from non divorced parents). They were examined for differences regarding anxiety, self-esteem, different areas of competence, and degree of behavior problems. With a focus on the children’s experiences, the clinically significant differences were examined. Clinically significant differences, revealing more negative outcomes for the children of divorce, were only found for social anxiety and unstable performance. The frequency of clinical significant differences was independent of the length of time the parents had been separated. The perceived destructiveness of conflict between the parents one of four facets of interparental conflict in this study functioned as a central mediator of the statistically significant group differences. The children’s perception of the father’s social support was a less reliable indicator of variance. Further studies should try to make underlying theoretical assumptions about the effects of divorce more explicit, to distinguish clearly between mediating variables, and to investigate them with respect to specific divorce adjustment indicators.

In 2011, the concept of Industry 4.0 was introduced and later adopted by the German government, paving the way for a new industrial revolution in Germany. The high significance of this topic is reflected by the large number of corresponding publications. Additionally, the regional focus of research is widespread on a global level and often differs even at a national level. This paper generates transparency regarding the adoption of the concept of Industry 4.0 by analyzing the locations of main contributors within the research field on an international, European, and German-national level. Further, it examines the regionally different foci concerning the concept of Industry 4.0. Having identified four main aspects linked to Industry 4.0 within a pre-study, a quantitative literature research was conducted based on over 800 published papers. The results were further visualized with QGIS. Looking at the results, it can be concluded that the German research community is virtually the only user of the term Industry 4.0, while other institutions seem to link their research to other related concepts. On a German level, the majority of the analyzed studies originate from Southern and Western Germany. North Rhine-Westphalia and the Aachen/Jülich region, in particular, represent main contributors.

AbstractCreation and exchange of knowledge depends on collaboration. Recent work has suggested that the emergence of collaboration frequently relies on geographic proximity. However, being co-located tends to be associated with other dimensions of proximity, such as social ties or a shared organizational environment. To account for such factors, multiple dimensions of proximity have been proposed, including cognitive, institutional, organizational, social and geographical proximity. Since they strongly interrelate, disentangling these dimensions and their respective impact on collaboration is challenging. To address this issue, we propose various methods for measuring different dimensions of proximity. We then present an approach to compare and rank them with respect to the extent to which they indicate co-publications and co-inventions. We adapt the HypTrails approach, which was originally developed to explain human navigation, to co-author and co-inventor graphs. We evaluate this approach on a subset of the German research community, specifically academic authors and inventors active in research on artificial intelligence (AI). We find that social proximity and cognitive proximity are more important for the emergence of collaboration than geographic proximity.

In 1894 the private scholar F.W.E. Roth published 14 Old High German glosses, which he claimed he had discovered in a manuscript in his own possession. Although the whereabouts of the manuscript have been unknown ever since, the glosses have been accepted as genuine by the Old High German research community. Recently the archivist Klaus Graf raised the suspicion that Roth had forged the 14 glosses mentioned above. The present article picks up Graf's request to review Roth's publication by taking his specifications regarding the manuscript into account and by investigating possible sources for the forgery. Der Privatgelehrte F. W. E. Roth veröffentlichte 1894 aus einer als in seinem Besitz befindlich bezeichneten, aber bis heute nicht auffindbaren Handschrift 14 althochdeutsche Glossen. Der Archivar Klaus Graf hat diese Glossenpublikation unter Fälschungsverdacht gestellt. Der damit verbundene Prüfungsauftrag an die Glossenforschung wird mit diesem Beitrag eingelöst.

The results of our own and foreign studies have shown the absence of sensitizing properties of terephthalic acid, and therefore there was a need to review the current hygienic standard – MAC – in the air of the working area and change the hazard class of the substance. The materials of the German Research Community (DFG) were used for substantiation of MAC. Recommended MAC in the air of working area is set at 5 mg/m3 (maximum single), a mixture of vapors and aerosol, hazard class 3.

Abstract Peace and Truce of God as legal sources of penal law. This study presents final results of the research program "The birth of the public penal law", with a grant by the German Research Community [DFG]. It can be concluded that the Peace rules were influential in numerous ways over the course of the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Texts mentioning Peace institutions – such as the atria, cellaria, etc. or the statutum pacis – were undoubtedly inspired by the Peace councils. The article finally takes into consideration the origins of the Movement of the Peace of God in Southern France and the impact on the North of Spain, in particular Catalonia. Inhalt: I. Eine geläufige These und die Notwendigkeit ihrer Überprüfung; II. Grundsätzliche Fragen zu Strafrecht und Landfrieden; III. Grundsätzliches zur Praxis des Landfriedensrechts; IV. Einzelstudien; V. Gottesfriede und Treuga Dei im Westen Europas

High voltage TEMs were introduced commercially thirty years ago, with the installations of 500 kV Hitachi instruments at the Universities of Nogoya and Tokyo. Since that time a total of 51 commercial instruments, having maximum accelerating potentials of 0.5-3.5 MV, have been delivered. Prices have gone from about a dollar per volt for the early instruments to roughly twenty dollars per volt today, which is not so unreasonable considerinp inflation and vastly improved electronics and other improvements. The most expensive HVEM (the 3.5 MV instrument at Osaka University) cost about 5 percent of the construction cost of the USA's latest synchrotron.Table 1 briefly traces the development of HVEM in this country for the materials sciences. There are now only three available instruments at two sites: the 1.2 MeV HVEM at Argonne National Lab, and 1.0 and 1.5 MeV instruments at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. Fortunately, both sites are user facilities funded by DOE for the materials research community.

The studies reported here focus on similarities and dissimilarities between the terminal value hierarchies ( Rokeach, 1973 ) ascribed to different groups ( Schwartz & Struch, 1990 ). In Study 1, n = 65 East Germans and n = 110 West Germans mutually assess the respective ingroup and outgroup. In this intra-German comparison the West Germans, with a mean intraindividual correlation of rho = 0.609, perceive a significantly greater East-West similarity between the group-related value hierarchies than the East Germans, with a mean rho = 0.400. Study 2 gives East German subjects either a Swiss (n = 58) or Polish (n = 59) frame of reference in the comparison between the categories German and East German. Whereas the Swiss frame of reference should arouse a need for uniqueness, the Polish frame of reference should arouse a need for similarity. In accordance with expectations, the Swiss frame of reference significantly reduces the correlative similarity between German and East German from a mean rho = 0.703 in a control group (n = 59) to a mean rho = 0.518 in the experimental group. Contrary to expectations, the Polish frame of reference does not lead to an increase in perceived similarity (mean rho = 0.712).
