Subjective well-beingSubjective well-being (SWB) is a self-reported measure of well-being, typically obtained by questionnaire. Ed Diener developed a tripartite model of subjective well-being in 1984, which describes how people experience the quality of their lives and includes both emotional reactions and cognitive judgments. It posits "three distinct but often related components of wellbeing: frequent positive affect, infrequent negative affect, and cognitive evaluations such as life satisfaction.
Échantillonnage (signal)L'échantillonnage consiste à prélever les valeurs d'un signal à intervalles définis, généralement réguliers. Il produit une suite de valeurs discrètes nommées échantillons. L'application la plus courante de l'échantillonnage est aujourd'hui la numérisation d'un signal variant dans le temps, mais son principe est ancien. Depuis plusieurs siècles, on surveille les mouvements lents en inscrivant, périodiquement, les valeurs relevées dans un registre : ainsi des hauteurs d'eau des marées ou des rivières, de la quantité de pluie.
Open textbookAn open textbook is a textbook licensed under an open license, and made available online to be freely used by students, teachers and members of the public. Many open textbooks are distributed in either print, e-book, or audio formats that may be downloaded or purchased at little or no cost. Part of the broader open educational resources movement, open textbooks increasingly are seen as a solution to challenges with traditionally published textbooks, such as access and affordability concerns.
