Analysis of The Wife of Bath’s Tale from Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales through the Lense of Propp’s Narrative Function by Marko Lim Aratea

“…This study used a structuralist approach which examines exactly how this knightly quest of redemption was non-traditional in that his intellectual and moral growth was pitted against the more physical challenges of traditional narratives. The results of the analysis are that 18 of Propp's functions are represented, whereas several of the most important functions—struggle and victory among them—are negated. …”

Analysis of Differences Between Groups of Locomotive Crew Drivers With Different Degrees of Ability to Arbitrarily Regulate Their Functional State by N. V. Shcherbina

“…We analyzed the differences in psychophysiological and personal characteristics between three groups of test drivers and locomotive crew assistants with varying degrees of ability to voluntarily regulate their functional state. For the analysis, we used the data of psychophysiological examination using the UPDK-MK complex for professional psychophysiological examination and selection of railway workers (Neurokom, Russia) and data obtained by the method of functional biocontrol with biofeedback (NeuroDog, Neurokom, Russia). …”
