Prior linguistic knowledge is proposed to support the acquisition and consolidation of new words. Adults typically have larger vocabularies to support word learning than children, but the developing brain shows enhanced neural processes that are associated with offline memory consolidation. This study investigated contributions of prior knowledge to initial word acquisition and consolidation at different points in development, by teaching children and adults novel words (e.g., ballow) that varied in the number of English word-form "neighbours" (e.g., wallow, bellow). Memory for the novel word-forms was tested immediately after training, the next day and 1 week later, to assess the time-course of prior knowledge contributions. Children aged 7-9 years (Experiments 1, 3) and adults (Experiment 2) recalled words with neighbours better than words without neighbours when tested immediately after training. However, a period of offline consolidation improved overall recall and reduced the influence of word-form neighbours on longer term memory. These offline consolidation benefits were larger in children than adults, supporting theories that children have a greater propensity for consolidating phonologically distinctive language information. Local knowledge of just a single word-form neighbour was enough to enhance learning, and this led to the individual differences in word recall that were related to adults' global vocabulary ability. The results support the proposal that the relative contributions of different learning mechanisms change across the lifespan, and highlight the importance of testing theoretical models of word learning in the context of development.
We study the geographical pattern of online word-of-mouth (WOM). Specifically, we examine whether and how customers' local environment influences the generation and direction of online WOM. Leveraging a unique research design, we measure the online WOM at a U.S. national e-commerce platform by tracking the WOM referral decisions of customers in over 240,000 purchases. In parallel, we measure the local environment of customers by combining a range of proprietary and public data sources (Facebook, Census, ESRI, and SCCBS). This includes the offline social environment (e.g., friend visiting frequency, neighbor interactions, and population mobility), online social environment (e.g., Facebook ties), and local historical sales across geographical areas. We build a stylized theoretical framework based on customer sharing motives and social networks to guide our empirical examination. While digital technologies have enabled customers to share without physical boundaries, we find that location still plays significant roles in the generation and direction of online WOM. First, a customer's offline social environment significantly explains the generation of online referrals (whereas local characteristics known to drive online sales do not positively explain the referral generation). Second, online referrals are largely bounded locally (e.g., 47% within 10 miles), and referrals in areas with more local social interactions are more likely to stay local. Third, even when referrals travel far, they are more likely to point at destinations socially similar to the origins. Our findings have important implications for firms in allocating resources across geographical areas as well as using referral directions as signals to identify high-potential geographical markets.
Hi everybody,
My windows started to act weird recently. Seemed like problems with explorer : Elements of menu taskbar were disappearing, folder's elements were disappearing, sound would stop working on occasions etc.
So I run the offline defender scan overnight on my lenovo y700 laptop. ..
Unfortunately my laptop died. When I plug in the charger, the light of power control on the laptop wont go on, but when i plug in an external drive to the USB, it will have the light on.
Word Unscrambler is a simple online tool for unscrambling and solving scrambled words, often useful in discovering top scoring words for Scrabble, Words with Friends, Wordle, Wordscapes, Wordfeud, TextTwist, Word Cookies, Anagrams etc.
I have a log file that I am indexing that has events that log the word "offline" and the word "online". I want to be alerted when the event offline occurs so I am currently searching for "offline" in my sourcetype and sending out an email. Then I want to be alerted when the event online occurs. Simple right? Similar query similar alert.
The problem is that when the log file has the word offline, it has it in there MANY times until the word online occurs. And I don't want to bombard email every 5 minutes with another alert. So I have been playing around with throttling however this is not perfect and I can miss a real offline alert.
What you could do is write the state of any offline hosts out to a file ( outputcsv or outputlookup). If a host already exists in the file, don't raise an alert about it. Remove the host from the file once you see a corresponding online message
I have the events already indexed in Splunk. So I can already query if the service is offline or online. The problem comes with a methodology for alerting via email. I could simply just run an alert every 5 minutes and send an email however would you really want to receive an email every 5 minutes telling you the service is down?
Thank you for your response although shutting everything down starting all up again has been tried as well as uninstalling and reinstalling printer. What seems to happen is it works for a while then goes offline for some reason. sorry left out important info. Using Windows 10 and Word 2016. Also this seeemed to happen after most recent win 10 upgrade if that helps. Did find info saying to stop and start Print Spooler which does work although slow to respond but eventually prints. Very cumbersome! I hope this is helpful. Thank you for your help.

Edit: Your own suggestion is another good variant, applicable if there is someone/something else that performs the operation. E.g. My friend went offline right in the middle of discussion vs. We had to take the server offline to perform maintenance on it.
Online word of mouth online is a much different than offline. You know this, your board of directors knows this, and most certainly consumers know this. So why is there still such an emphasis on social media without an equivalent share of mind spent on offline conversations?
If I could impress one thing on any company considering a WOMM program it would be that online word of mouth marketing and offline (in-person) are definitely not the same, and should be treated as completely different avenues to tell your story.
Sure, there are similarities, and research has shown that online reviews and WOM from online friends are trusted sources of information. But beyond the ability to carry a message with exponential growth opportunity, the impact and effect of offline vs online WOM mediums are quite different.
Today I want to bring a word of something that happened this week to me. Well, I am heading into my last semester of college and due to a number of factors I was having a financial hold on college, so I would not be able to do my rematriculation unless I paid a certain amount, a very high amount. So in the last month I have seen the peace of my heart stolen in many moments.
There is some urgent requirement for me to compare two or more documents (pdf/word) and generate an output summary document that will highlight the changes or the differences of all the documents. Is there any offline JAVA SDK available in aspose so that I can use that to meet the requirement.
You can compare only Word documents (see supported Word file formats) by using Aspose.Words for Java API and yes, you can perform all document processing tasks offline. And there is no need to purchase any additional APIs to be able to compare Word documents.
Aspose.Words tries to mimic the behavior of MS Word i.e. if you compare these source and target Word documents by using MS Word, you will see that MS Word will also inject Revisions against Table in final document (see Comparison by ms word 2019.zip (102.5 KB)). However, you can instruct Aspose.Words not to compare Tables during comparison by using the following code;
We used data on hateful Twitter content, and hate incidents and hate crimes/offences recorded by the Metropolitan Police Service in the United Kingdom to analyse this association, using time-series analysis. This study is unique in its use of newly developed technology to undertake big data analysis with recent, disaggregated online and offline hate data.
Our findings likely point to what we have referred to as compound retaliation, which suggests that media and social media dissemination about offline acts of hate compound already tense intergroup hostilities, providing further permission for those to express hatred online. Such a situation represents the compounding of hate and hostility through offline and online networks that are likely to be reinforcing.
"I bought this shirt offline." Is 'offline' okay to use to refer to something that was bought at a brick-and-mortar store? If not, what's the preferred way to say it in everyday conversations?
