Evidence and Bias: The Case of the Evidential Future in Italian
Evidential markers encode the source of information that an individual (the evidential Origo) has for a proposition. In root declaratives, the Origo is always the speaker (see Korotkova 2016 and references therein). Instead, questions often display interrogative flip: the Origo shifts to the hearer (Garrett 2001; Speas & Tenny 2003, a.o.). While interrogative flip is widely attested across languages, some evidentials have been reported not to flip in questions (see, e.g., San Roque, Floyd & Norcliffe 2017; Bhadra 2017). What determines whether evidentials flip or not? Recent work (Korotkova 2016; Bhadra 2017) has proposed that there is a correlation between lack of flip and bias in questions. This paper contributes to our understanding of the interaction of evidentials and bias by investigating the behaviour of questions with the Italian non-predictive future. We characterize the non-predictive future as an inferential evidential marker (see also Mari 2009; Eckardt & Beltrama forthcoming), and show that lack of flip for the future correlates only with a particular type of bias: a reversal of the default bias associated with negative polar questions (Frana & Rawlins forthcoming). We trace back this pattern to an interaction between the evidential component of the future and the operator that triggers bias reversal

Making Worlds Accessible. Essays in Honor of Angelika Kratzer
Every linguist knows how colossal Angelika’s impact on our field is. Hearing aboutthis would not be informative for anybody who might (virtually) pick up this volume, including Angelika herself. So, instead of writing about, say, Angelika’s crucial role in the development of our understanding of modality, we will write about what Angelika means to us, as a teacher, advisor, mentor, colleague, and friend. We know that these words will resonate with many of you (Angelika has meant so much to so many people). We just get to be the lucky ones to tell Angelika publicly.https://scholarworks.umass.edu/ak_festsite_schrift/1000/thumbnail.jp

Relación de la gestión de recursos humanos con el engagement de los trabajadores del instituto regional de enfermedades neoplásicas del Sur Iren - Sur Arequipa 2020
En la siguiente investigación se pretende comprobar la relación entre la Gestión de Recursos Humanos y el Engagement en los trabajadores del Instituto Regional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas del Sur IREN SUR de la misma manera surge la necesidad de conocer como es la Gestión de Recursos Humanos, si esto influye en el nivel de engaged con su trabajo y si lo hace de manera positiva o negativa. El termino Engagement aún no es conocido y no tiene una traducción exacta en español por lo que la mayoría hace referencia al compromiso intelectual y emocional del trabajador con la empresa en la que trabaja. Al plantear el enunciado del problema se infirió que es conveniente realizar la presente investigación porque servirá para determinar el grado de relación entre la Gestión de Recursos Humanos y el Engagement del personal administrativo y asistencial del Instituto Regional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas del Sur IREN-SUR.Siendo su propósito el aportar indicios y perspectivas sobre la situación del Engagemet en la muestra de trabajadores del Instituto Regional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas del Sur IREN-SUR y a través de ello, plantear propuestas para la compresión y ayudar a la mejora de la Gestión de Recursos Humanos.Tesi
