Thesis abstract The Anglo-saxon min& metaphor and common sense psychology in Old English fiterature Doctor of Pfulosophy, 1998 Low Soon Ai Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto The rich mental vocabulary of Old English plays a centrai role in the portrayal of menml and emotional processes in Anglo-Saxon literature. An understanding of how this vocabulary refiects the Anglo-saxon concept of mind is the central concem of this thesis. Chapter One considers various approaches to the study of mental vocabulary. Most OE mental terms are polysemous and are used interchangeabiy, and are therefore difficult to distinguish semantically. Focusing on metaphors rather than on individual words may therefore be more fruitful. Chapter Two outiines the cognitive theory of memphor which suggests that metaphor has a greater role in patterns of human conceptuaiiiation than previously reaiized. One function of metaphor is to provide epistemic access to otherwise elusive concepts, so that a concept such as mind is typically metaphorized in terms from the p hysical world. Chapter Three is a survey of the Anglo-Saxon metaphors of the mind. Physical attributes projected ont0 the mind such as spatial orientation, texture, size, etc. are considered together with specific metaphors such as 'mind as container' and 'mind as body'. The question of whether these metaphors reflect a distinctly Angio-Saxon concept of minci is discussed Chapter Four examines the particular pIace in Anglo-saxon culture of the metaphors of fastening and foundation. The role of these metaphors in the expression of spiritual endeavour is considered in wisdom poetry, hagiography and monastic practice. Chapter Five considers the contribution of the cognitive approach to the study of the Anglo-saxon min& focusing on literary cnticism, historical physioiogy, historical psychology and philology. Arguing that a more sophisticated approach to ianguage is necessq if the Anglo-Saxons' worldview is to be reconstructed, the thesis concludes with theoretical considerations, and suggestions for further research.

This difficulty is reflected in the vagueness with which dictionaries and other reference works treat mental terms. Bosworth-Toller's definition for ingehnc, for insmnce, consists of a loose string of ncuns: "Thought, thinking, cogitation, intent, mind, heart, conscience". Clark Hall's entry for ferhb is even more impressionistic: "mind, intellect, soul, spirit: life: person". In its section on mental faculties, the Thesaurus of Old Ennlish has the oddly assorted heading "O6 Spirit, soul, heart", under which an even odder assortment of terms is placed: "ferhp, heorre, heortscrzefi hreber, lichord, mod, modsefa, sawol'tl Al1 of the terms in these various definitions evoke 'the inner life', a domain not susceptible to precise cartography, but they also suggest, 1 think unfortunately, that to the Anglo-saxons there was no proper distinction to be made between such notions as 'soul' and 'mind', or between 'thought' and 'heart'. In particular, the method of the TOE entry is not so much taxonomy as it is mere collecting. It is not clear why, if ferhp, modsefa and d are in the list, related terms such as hyge adsefa should be omitted; similarly, gast is left out even though sawol is included- A better case might actualIy be made for the exclusion of gast and sawol altogether (and a reorganizing of the heading "Spirit, soul, heart"), for there is J. Bosworth and T. N. Toller, An Anglo-saxon dictionarv (Oxford, 1964 [1898]) with Sumlement by T. N. Toller (Oxford, 1955 1192 l]),hereafter referred to as and respectively, and Revised and enlareed addenda by A. Camp bel1 (Oxford, 1972), hereafter referred to as BTAdd; J. R. Clark Hall and H-Meritt, A concise Anelo-Saxon dictionary, 4th. edn. (Cambridge, 1960);Jane Roberts and Christian Kay and Lynne Grundy, A . thesaurus of Old Endish: vols 1 & II (London, 1995), hereafter referred to as mE good reason to suppose that the Anglo-Saxons separated the notions of 'spirit and soul' from those of 'hmand minci'. Gast and sawol quite clearly denote the spiritual part of man, which survives the body at death but which does not seem to take part in mundane psychological and experiential processes, as d and the other more purely 'mental' terms do. Naturally, sawol and gast are frequentiy used in opposition to the mortal body, lic, lichama or ffzesc, and with reference to the next world This passage from Juliana is rypical (u413):~ Ic b~resawle ma geornor gyme ymb bacs -tes forwyrd bonne bacs lichoman, se be on legre sceal weoraan in worulde wyrme to hrobor, bifolen in foldan. '1 am more concerned with the destruction of the soul and of the spirit than of the body, which must become in this worid a feast for the worm in the grave, committed to the earth'. The devil, under interrogation by the saint, explains that his work is to destroy souls and spirits rather thân bodies and (signifiant by omission) minds. There would have been no question of a word such as nmrl substituting for either sawol or gast here. In one of Elfric's homilies, it appears at first that sawol is used in an emotional, experiential sense much as we expect words like &and sefa to be used in the poeay (ECHorn 1.30 433.135; italics mine): OPre martyras on heora licharnan browodon martyrdom for cristes geleafan: ac seo eadige maria naes na lichamlice gemaqrod.

II Dedicated to Mom and Dad for their eternal support, motivation, and love III IV ABSTRACT Speech user interfaces (SUIs) such as Apple’s Siri, Microsoft’s Cortana, and Google Now are becoming increasingly popular. However, despite years of research, such interfaces really only work for specific users, such as adult native speakers of English, when in fact, many other users such as non-native speakers or children stand to benefit at least as much, if not more. The problem in developing SUIs for such users or for other acoustic or language situations is the expertise, time, and cost in building an initial system that works reasonably well, and can be deployed to collect more data or also to establish a group of loyal users.

Mobile app±based (mobile health [mHealth]) interventions present a novel approach to both reducing stress and improving well-being. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a self-guided mobile app±based psychological intervention for people providing care to family or friends with a physical or mental disability. Methods: In a randomized, single-blind, controlled trial, 183 caregivers recruited through the web were randomly allocated to either an intervention (n=73) or active control (n=110) condition. The intervention app contained treatment modules combining daily self-monitoring with third-wave (mindfulness-based) cognitive-behavioral therapies, whereas the active control app contained only self-monitoring features.

  • Contributions of New Technologies to the Teaching of English Pronunciation
    Language Value July 2017, Volume 9, Number 1 pp. 1-35 http://www.e-revistes.uji.es/languagevalue Copyright © 2017, ISSN 1989-7103 Contributions of new technologies to the teaching of English pronunciation Yolanda Joy Calvo Benzies [email protected] University of the Balearic Islands, Spain ABSTRACT One of the most significant changes in language classrooms over recent decades has been the introduction of ICTs. Despite a broad range of previous research in the field, little work has been done to date on assessing the benefits of teaching pronunciation through ICTs, something surprising in view of the large number of existing programs and other materials specifically designed to improve learners’ pronunciation. This paper is intended to contribute to the field in that it will provide an overview of the materials currently available for teaching pronunciation through the use of ICTs, as well as an empirical preliminary study on ESP students’ first contact with using ICTs for learning pronunciation. Results indicate that these students enjoyed using these technological tools and would like to use them again to practise their pronunciation. Keywords: Pronunciation, ESP student’s opinions, apps, software, blogs, websites I. INTRODUCTION Previous research in the teaching and learning of English has shown that more attention is usually paid to written skills than to spoken ones in EFL settings (Alonso 2014, Hornero et al. 2013, Calvo 2016a). Furthermore, within spoken skills, pronunciation has traditionally been neglected, to the point where it has been referred to as the poor relation of the English teaching world (Hughes 2002), the orphan (Gilbert 2010) or even the Cinderella (Underhill 2013) in language lessons.

  • Gathering Text Entry Metrics on Android Devices
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Multimedia and Human Computer Interaction Toronto, Ontario, Canada, July 18-19 2013 Paper No. 120 Gathering Text Entry Metrics on Android Devices Steven J. Castellucci, I. Scott MacKenzie York University, Department of Computer Science and Engineering 4700 Keele St., Toronto, Ontario, Canada M3J 1P3 [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract -We developed TEMA, an application to gather Text Entry speed and accuracy Metrics on Android devices. This paper details the features of the application, describes a user study to demonstrate its utility, and establishes entry speed and accuracy measurements for the evaluated text entry techniques. We evaluated and compared four mobile text entry methods: two-thumb QWERTY typing, one-finger QWERTY typing, handwriting recognition, and shape writing recognition. The two QWERTY techniques were the fastest, with no statistically significant difference between them in entry speed or accuracy. Shape writing was slightly slower, but similar in accuracy. Handwriting was the slowest and least accurate technique. Keywords: Text entry, metrics, entry speed, accuracy, Android 1. Introduction Mobile devices are often used for SMS text messaging and social networking. An estimated 9.2 trillion text messages will be sent in 2013 (Web-1) and more than 680 million people access Facebook using mobile devices per month (Web-2). Thus, investigating methods for mobile text entry is a significant research topic. To aid evaluation of mobile text entry methods, we created an application to gather user performance metrics on Android devices: Text Entry Metrics on Android (TEMA). In this paper, we present our motivation for TEMA and its features.
