Separating Operators from Their Variables.Pdf Divide et Impera - Separating Operators from their Variables Cynthia Levart Zocca DeRoma, Ph.D. University of Connecticut, 2011 This dissertation investigates the role of lexical decomposition in several syntactic and semantic issues. Two phenomena in particular are discussed: Wh in situ in Wh-Movement languages and the behavior of even in English and Brazilian Portuguese. For the first phenomenon, I propose that separating Wh-phrases into two parts that can move independently from one another can explain crosslinguistic differences between, among others, French and Brazilian Portuguese with respect to the syntactic contexts that allow for Wh in situ. I also investigate different strategies for establishing syntactic covert relations and argue that Agree and Unselective Binding are the two strategies that are needed to explain Wh in situ in Brazilian Portuguese. Next, I look at the same phenomenon from a semantic/pragmatic point of view and conclude that, in a Wh-Movement language like Brazilian Portuguese, Wh in situ is only possible when the speaker assumes that the presupposition of the question is part of the Common Ground. I also discuss some crosslinguistic variation in this respect. I then move to a semantic phenomenon, i.e. the behavior of even in English and Brazilian Portuguese. More specifically, I investigate the behavior of even under a predicate like glad. I show that in this case a lexical- decomposition analysis is not necessary or enough to explain the facts adequately. On the other hand, I propose that the distribution of stressed any can be accounted for if we assume that it can be decomposed into any itself and a silent even.

Unfortunately, words is all I've got to thank the people who made the completion of this dissertation possible. I know I'm forgetting some names here, and I apologize in advance... First of all, I'd like to thank my advisor, Zeljko Boskovic, not only for sharing his knowledge with me, but also for being so patient. I know I wasn't an easy student to work with. Zeljko, however, never let this show. He was supportive, encouraging, and extremely available all along, from my first days in Storrs to the completion of this dissertation. Another monument of patience that was essential for my academic life is Jonathan Bobaljik, who is also a member of my committee. He has taught me much more than Linguistics, he has become my role model of scientific appropriacy and integrity. I thank him for that, in addition to thanking him for his invaluable role in the writing of this dissertation. My third committee member has a lot to be thanked for as well. Yael Sharvit was my first formal semantics teacher, and I owe to her almost everything I know about it. When I first started the work that led to this dissertation, I had no idea that semantics would play such an important role in it. Yael has been indispensable in guiding me through the maze that formal semantics was (and still is!) to me. I'd like also to thank all the faculty members in the Linguistics department. First of all I'd like to thank William Snyder not only taught me acquisition and the little bit of statistics that I know, but he also had a very important role in the support system I needed to overcome some bad times. Thanks also go to Diane Lillo-Martin, Andrea Calabrese, Jon Gajewski, Harry van der Hulst, and Susi Wurmbrand, who have, each in their own way, played an essential role in my development as a linguist. Special thanks also go Jairo Nunes and Mary Kato, who have introduced me to the magical world of generative syntax and were my first mentors in the field. For funding me during my years in Storrs, I thank the University of Connecticut's Graduate School and the Linguistics Department. Thanks also go to the University Writing Center, the University of Connecticut American English Institute, and the Institute for Teaching and Learning for extra sources of funding. I would also like to thank Catherine Ross and Keith Barker from the Institute for Teaching and Learning for their special role in my graduate education, having introduced me to the International Teaching Assistant program and faculty development initiatives. Thanks also to Anne Halbert for all her help and support. Of course none of this would have been possible without my friends, who have been my family here in Storrs. First of all, I'd like to thank my classmates, some of whom are not even in Storrs anymore, but whose presence was crucial for helping me understand and survive Linguistics. Even if we did not worked together too often, their presence alone made things a lot easier. Thanks to the people who started this journey with me, Oksana Tarasenkova, Nilufer Sener, Takuro Tanaka, Shigeki Taguchi, Nazareth Palacin-Mencia, and Ognjen Radic. Thanks also to all the other students in the department who have been here the same time as me, and I hope I remembered everyone: Masahiko Aihara, Duk-ho An, Ana Bastos, Jeffrey Bernath, Carlos Buesa Garcia, Hsu-Te iii Johnny Cheng, Hang Yee Winnie Cheung, Inkie Chung, Jean Crawford, Miloje Despic, Sarah Felber, Natasha Fitzgibbons, Benjamin Girard-Bond, Zhanna Glushan, Mary Goodrich, Corina Goodwin, Elaine Grolla, Simona Herdan, I-Ta Chris Hsieh, Takako Iseda, Jungmin Kang, Helen Koulidobrova, Pei-Jung Kuo, Mariana Lambova (in memoriam), Liu Yu-Rui, Beata Moskal, Irina Monich, Fumikazu Niinuma, Masashi Nomura, Toshiko Oda, Koichi Ohtaki, Nina Radkevich, Natasha Rakhlin, Lara Reglero, Jose Riqueros Morante, Miguel Rodriguez-Mondonedo, Jelena Runic, Tsuyoshi Sawada, Serkan Sener, Yoshiyuki Shibata, Eric Shortt, Masahiko Takahashi, Lyn Tieu, Neda Todorovic, Alexandre Vaxman, Julio Villa-Garcia, Sandy Wood, and Ting Xu. Special thanks go to Ana and Zhanna for being my housemates and putting up with me outside as well as inside the department. I'd also like to thank some Brazilian linguists from other departments, who were also in the US for some time and have shared many of the joys and frustrations of living away from Brazil. More specifically, thanks to Cristina Ximenes and Marcelo Ferreira. Times here would have been much harder without having met people from other departments. Special in this categories are the "Physics people" (Go Psi Stars!): Phil, Ila, Marko, Philippe, Ken, Marco, Erin, Tank, Drew, JC, Brad, Sam, Jimmy James, Adolfo, Ting, Nolan, Margo, Chris, Tom (and Charity), Rob, and Pete. Marco and Andrew in particular deserve my thanks for having shared so much of their lives with me and having helped me through some truly bad times. I also thank Andrew for helping me stay sane in Ithaca for the last year! Of course, I also have friends who are neither linguists nor physicists, some of whom I name here: Jim Lin, Jadranka, Ellie, John Haga, Karla, Kate, Lisa, Tsi-Tsi, Selini, Kathy, Rob, Tom, and many others. For their help navigating some of the bureaucracy involved in getting a PhD, I thank Judy Marcus and especially Catalina Ritton. Thank you also to everyone at the International Teaching Assistant Program in the Center for Teaching Excellence at Cornell University - Kim, Stew, Jody, and Derina - for being so understanding in a year when I had to juggle a full-time job and a dissertation to write. I extend my thanks to everyone in the CTE as well, Theresa, Richard, David, and Leslie. There were also people in Brazil who, in spite of the distance, have always been there for me. Obrigada a todos pela forca! Voces sabem quern sao! In special, I want to thank Marcello Marcelino for so much I don't even know how to put it in words. No distance will ever separate us, big bro! In the final stages of my dissertation writing I met someone who changed my life and is changing my last name too. To my husband Matt, thank you so much for being who you are. Your love has been decisive in my life. I also want to thank my family in Brazil for their unconditional support at all stages in my life. Vovo, De, Claudio, Fernando, Carol, obrigada pelo apoio. Obrigada tambem Leila, Wilson, Marcelo, Wilsinho, Rosinha, Ivan, Cris e Junior. As I worked on my final revisions, I had some very special company: Little Matt, my future little bilingual.

  • Exposure to Tobacco Marketing Among Adolescents in Indonesia
    Adolescents’ Exposure to Tobacco Marketing in Indonesia: Data Brief Background Indonesia faces a tobacco epidemic among youth where 19% of young people age 13-15 years are smokers and the smoking prevalence among young people age 10-18 years old rose significantly from 7% to 9% from 2013 to 2018.1,2 The tobacco industry spends billions of dollars on marketing, which contributes to the rapid rise in smoking among youth.3 In recent years with the emergence of the Internet, tobacco marketing online is rampant and targeted at young people, and represents a risk factor for adolescent tobacco use.4 During the COVID-19 pandemic, youth are spending more time on Internet, including using social media (e.g., Instagram, Facebook) and online gaming platforms.5 However, adolescents’ exposure to tobacco marketing on the Internet is not fully understood or documented. This brief summarizes a study that fills the gap. Vital Strategies with Indonesian Guidance and Counselling Teachers’ Association (ABKIN) and other partners in Indonesia conducted a household survey of 2,281 adolescents between age 13-15 years to determine the extent of exposure to tobacco marketing. This data brief presents key findings from the study. Additional findings are reported in the accompanying Appendix. Key Findings 1. Indonesian Adolescents’ Tobacco and Internet Usage Most Indonesian adolescents use online media, and, among those who use the Internet every day, the most accessed platforms are instant messaging, social media, and online video. Among adolescents who said they use the Internet every day, the most accessed platforms include: instant messaging (e.g., WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger) (97%), social media (e.g., Instagram, Facebook, Twitter) (91%), and online video (e.g., TikTok, YouTube) (Figure 1).

Salemba Raya No. 4, Jakarta Pusat 10430 Email: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The advancement of technology and society has led to innovations, including in the field of media. Media convergence has given birth to a novel audiovisual medium called Video-on- Demand (VOD), which combined the logics of television, film, home video, the internet, as well as technology. This conceptual research applied a literature review method to discuss the journey of the logic of watching television with a specific schedule and a particular medium to the understanding that television, after all, is just an artifact. The paper also discussed new habits that are developed due to the birth of VOD and how VOD branding worked. This research aimed to look at how the development of media convergence in the form of VOD brought new trends, especially in Indonesia. The paper concluded that many new opportunities were ready to be utilized by VOD platforms to develop their content and reach Indonesian audiences. However, it was also necessary to consider that Indonesia’s regulations still were not utterly supporting the development of VOD. Keywords: Film; Indonesia; Media Convergence; Video on Demand (VOD); Television Abstrak Kemajuan teknologi dan masyarakat telah menghasilkan inovasi-inovasi termasuk dalan bidang media.

New titles presented to the international market during Mip TV/Mip Formats in Cannes this month included SBS’ singing contest Fan Wars, co-developed with Banijay; and CJ ENM’s 300 War of United Voices, a singing competition where K- pop stars invite 300 fans into the studio to sing and compete. Following its U.S. success on Fox, King of Masked Singer has been optioned for the U.K. and versions are in the works in Eu- rope and Mexico. In Asia, the format has been sold to China, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam. Korea already has at least two shows similar to King of Masked Singer, which premiered in 2015. These were hits in Asia but none has taken off in the U.S. in the same way. JTBC’s HIdden Singer, for instance, was massive on Hunan TV in China a few years ago. Local versions have also been made in Thailand and Vietnam. A second format, CJ ENM’s I Can See Your Voice, has been adapted in Cam- bodia, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philip- pines, Thailand and Vietnam.
