Unpacking the Selective Fossilization Hypothesis: Questions, Insights, and Possibilities

Working Papers in Applied Linguistics and TESOL, 2015
A defining characteristic of second language learning, fossilization has been referred to as one the most enduring and fascinating problems confronting researchers of second language acquisition (SLA) (Han, 2004a).

An inverse method to interpret colour-magnitude diagrams [PDF]

, 2002
An inverse method is developed to determine the star formation history, the age-metallicity relation, and the IMF slope from a colour-magnitude diagram. The method is applied to the Hipparcos HR diagram.

A state-of-the-art analysis of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822

, 2014
We present a detailed photometric study of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 aimed at investigating the properties of its stellar populations and, in particular, the presence of stellar radial gradients.

A close look at the Centaurus A group of galaxies III. Recent star formation histories of late-type dwarfs around M83 [PDF]

, 2011
We study the resolved stellar populations of dwarf galaxies in the nearby Centaurus A/M83 group of galaxies. Our goal is to characterize their evolutionary history and to investigate eventual similarities or differences with the dwarf population in other

Handling Out‐of‐Sample Areas to Estimate the Unemployment Rate at Local Labour Market Areas in Italy

International Statistical Review, Volume 94, Issue 1, Page 140-162, April 2026.
Summary Unemployment rate estimates for small areas are used to efficiently support the distribution of services and the allocation of resources, grants and funding. A Fay–Herriot type model is the most used tool to obtain these estimates. Under this approach out‐of‐sample areas require some synthetic estimates. As the geographical context is extremely
