A Mixed Methods Exploration of Minority Resource Eligibility for Half White Multiracial College Students

Over the last several decades, multiracial populations have received increased attention in academic literature, particularly regarding identity development and psychological health and wellness. Less attention has been given to individuals with one minority and one white parent (i.e., half white individuals) in the context of affirmative action and higher education. Existing quantitative studies on this topic suggest, on the one hand, that half white individuals are likely to be considered members of racial minorities, yet, on the other hand, less of a minority—and less deserving of affirmative action benefits—than monoracial individuals or multiracial individuals with multiple minority identities. College students’ and student affairs professionals’ perspectives on this issue are absent from the literature. This study used a mixed methods research design to gather college students’ and student affairs professionals’ perspectives of the minority status and minority resource eligibility of half white college students. Data collection occurred in two phases. The first phase entailed interviewing a purposefully selected group of half white college students. In the second phase, quotations from interviews were inserted into a survey that was then distributed to student affairs professionals. Findings suggest that, despite explicitly articulating their status as racial minorities, my participants’ perceptions of their eligibility for minority-based campus resources were not as clear and reflected some of what the literature review and survey data provided—that there were mitigating circumstances to their eligibility for minority resources. This most often involved being half white and not perceiving themselves to encounter the same levels of racism and oppression as their monoracial peers. Further, participants almost always compared this lack of oppression to that of monoracial students in identity-based centers or groups on campus, such that their monoracial peers in those spaces faced greater levels of oppression. Participants in my study ultimately had to make decisions about their own appropriateness in accessing and using resources meant to assist racial minorities. When considering the context of minority resource eligibility and the everincreasing number of self-identifying multiracial students, this study raised ongoing questions about the purpose, framework, and utility of minority-based or race-based student groups and centers on college and university campuses. Additional questions were raised about the extent to which higher education institutions effectively provided resources to multiracial students in the same ways they provided resources to other minority students.
Determinants and Impacts of Incorporation of Local Public Technology Transfer Organizations: Evidence from Japan's Kohsetsushi

Legal reforms act as a fundamental shift in incentive systems by creating and redefining incentive tools, such as ownership, discretion, and reward. This study examines the impacts of the Local Independent Administrative Corporation Law enacted in 2003 that altered patent ownership and managerial autonomy of Kohsetsushi , which are technology transfer organizations established by local governments. Key findings of the panel data analysis are as follows. First, the local governments' decision-making regarding the incorporation was not based on the goal of improving technology transfer performance measured by licensing income. Second, incorporation encouraged Kohsetsushi to allocate their resources from diffusion/extension activities to research/inventive activities. Third, incorporation positively affected patent applications, but had no effect on licensing income. Fourth, there was a U-shaped (inverted U-shaped) relationship between licensing income of non-incorporated (incorporated) Kohsetsushi and the number of technical problems consulted with them. Fifth, counterfactual analysis showed negative ATT and positive ATU, which suggests an unintended consequence of the policy. Policy implications of the results are discussed.

Descubriendo mi lugar: Understanding sense of belonging and community of black STEM-H students enrolled at a Hispanic serving institution

Purpose The purpose of this quantitative study is to explore the differences and relations among how Black science, technology, engineering and mathematics-life and health sciences (STEM-H) and non-STEM-H students develop a sense of belonging and community at a Hispanic serving institution (HSI). Design/methodology/approach This paper used findings from a survey that collected both numeric and string data. Surveys were administered via e-mail. Findings There were a limited number of significant findings related to STEM-H students believing that faculty would be sensitive to their needs and that they would be part of the community. String data provide more data about positive and negative experiences related to belonging and community. Research limitations/implications It was a single-institution study in New Mexico. Therefore, it may not mirror other HSIs across the country. Also, there were only 84 participants. This number is relatively low compared to the 465 Black students identified at the institutions. Thus, it is clear that not all voices are heard in this study. Finally, this study used preexisting scales to measure a sense of belonging and a sense of community. Because of this, the questions were not customized to the region. Originality/value This study introduces STEM-H as a viable area of study. It examines Black STEM-H students enrolled at an HSI using two scales for sense of belonging and sense of community.

Influence of the Base Liquid and Particle Size on the Thermo-Physical Characteristics of MoS2 Micro- and Nanofluids

The present work investigates the formulation and evaluation of thermo-physical properties of water (W) and water/ethylene glycol (W/EG) based nanofluids and microfluids (NFs/MFs) made with the dispersion of Molybdenum(IV) sulfide nanoparticles and microparticles (MoS2 NPs/MPs) with focus on the effect of the particle size and the base liquid. A series of stable NFs and MFs with particle concentrations 0.25, 0.5 and 1wt% were prepared by dispersing MoS2NPs and MPs in W and W/EG as the base liquids. Thermal conductivity (TC) and viscosity of MoS2NFs and MFs, as the most important thermo-physical properties influencing the performance of heat exchange fluids, were measured at 20 C. The results for TC and viscosity of W based MoS2NF-MFs were compared with the same NFsMFs with W/EG base liquid to reveal the impact of the base liquid. The experiments showed that W/EG based NFs-MFs exhibit higher heat transfer efficiencies than that of W-based suspensions. Moreover, NFs with MoS2NPs exhibited higher TC than those of MFs containing the same particle concentration and at the same temperature, which helps to identify the effect of NP size. The best result was obtained for water-based NF with 1wt% MoS2NP, demonstrating a TC enhancement of ~12.4 % with ~10.6 % viscosity increase at 20 C.
Colorings versus list colorings of uniform hypergraphs

Let r be an integer with r≥2 and G be a connected r ‐uniform hypergraph with m edges. By refining the broken cycle theorem for hypergraphs, we show that if k>m−1ln(1+2)≈1.135(m−1) , then the k ‐list assignment of G admitting the fewest colorings is the constant list assignment. This extends the previous results of Donner, Thomassen, and the current authors for graphs.
CHROs: Enablers of Value Creating Boards

Abstract This article argues that chief human resource officers (CHROs) as directors on the board are strategically best placed to lead conversations pertaining to board processes due to their extensive expertise in talent management. Board composition and managing board processes and dynamics are important aspects of board effectiveness. Using the behavioural perspective to corporate governance, the article holds that the key differentiator in value creating boards are the members, the roles they play and the dynamics that allows them to create value for the firm. CHROs can play a decisive role in the board skill evaluation and incorporation of new and diverse members into boards.
Black American Adult Children of Divorce

Using concepts from Social Identity Theory, the goal of this study was to understand the experiences of Black adult children whose parents have divorce and the phenomenon of their self-perception based on family identity. This was a phenomenological study conducted through guided face-to-face interviews and utilizing Photovoice with four Black adult children of divorce, whose parents divorced after they were 18 years old. The data collected from narrative interviews and photographs through this study were analyzed using narrative and visual content analysis. Findings were that adult children who are emerging as adults with their identity struggle to reidentify themselves, their familial relations not only with their divorced parents, but even more so with their siblings; where relationships are also impacted. This study contributes to social change by identifying needs of this population at an important time in their lives. Therapists, universities, and communities may use this study to better support Black adult children of divorce of American descent. Black American Adult Children of Divorce by Aurielle C.

Eocene to Miocene Subduction Initiation Recorded in Stratigraphy of Reinga Basin, Northwest New Zealand

Reinga Basin, northwest of New Zealand, contains deformed Cretaceous and Cenozoic strata, flat unconformities interpreted as sea level‐modulated erosion surfaces, and volcanics. Marine conditions since the Late Cretaceous resulted in deposition of thick sequences of fossil‐rich sediments. We present a seismic stratigraphic analysis that is tied to dredged rock samples and International Ocean Discovery Program Site U1508. The Cenozoic tectonic evolution of Reinga Basin comprises four phases. (1) Folding was accompanied by uplift from lower bathyal water depths at 56–43 Ma along West Norfolk Ridge, where wave ravinement surfaces were cut. (2) Basin‐wide compression and reverse faulting at 39–34 Ma exposed Eocene and older strata along the northeastern basin margin and farther south in western New Zealand. (3) Emplacement of South Maria Allochthon at 34–28 Ma along the northeast margin postdated thick‐skinned reverse faulting and folding, was broadly synchronous with the onset of basin volcanism, and immediately predated wave ravinement of nearby ridges. Normal faulting disrupted the western basin margin at this time. (4) During the final phase of the Reinga Basin deformation, South Maria Ridge subsided ∼1,000–2,000 m from the middle shelf to bathyal depths after 23–19 Ma, and the deformation migrated southeastwards. The Northland Allochthon was emplaced at 23–20 Ma, and Northland volcanism with confirmed arc character occurred at 23–12 Ma. The early Eocene onset of tectonic activity recorded by deformation in Reinga Basin is shown to be older than previously recognized and broadly synchronous with other events related to subduction initiation and plate motion change elsewhere in the western Pacific.
Online Shopping Behavior in Cross-cultural Context: An Empirical Research in China

As a newly evolved emergence from e-business, social commerce has attracted increasingly attention from both researchers and practitioners. Distinguished from the majority of extant research paradigm, the current empirical study extends social commerce research into cross-cultural context and unveils the underlying mechanism through which two dimensions of social media usage (informational and socializing) impact user’s intention to purchase on social commerce websites, thereby facilitating online shopping behaviors. In addition, the research demonstrates the role of cultural distance as a boundary condition attenuating the positive effects of social media usage in cross-cultural social commerce application. Research implications and limitations for future venues are also discussed.
Superoxide Dismutase 2 Val16Ala Polymorphism is Associated with Amiodarone-Associated Liver Injury

Abstract Association of SOD2 V16A single-nucleotide polymorphism (rs4880) with drug hepatotoxicity were reported but relationships with amiodarone prescriptions remained unexplored. Research was an exploratory, controlled prospective clinical trial. Patients hospitalized and treated in Clinical Center in Kragujevac, Serbia (in year 2017) were divided into experimental (using amiodarone, having liver injury, n=29, 19 males, the mean age 66.8±10.4 years), control A (neither amiodarone use nor hepatotoxicity, n=29, 19, 66.1±10.3) and control B group (using amiodarone, not having hepatotoxicity, n=29, 19, 66.8±9.8). From blood samples, among other routine biochemistry, genotyping for SOD2 polymorphism Val16Ala was conducted using real-time PCR method with TaqMan® Genotyping Master Mix and TaqMan® DME Genotyping Assay for rs4880. Patients taking amiodarone and having liver injury were mostly carriers of Val/Val (TT) genotype (13 of 24 patients, 54.2%) while Val/Ala (TC) and Ala/Ala (CC) genotypes prevailed in control group A (19 of 40, 47.5%) and control group B (9 of 23, 39.1%), respectively (2=10.409, p=0.034). Frequency of Val (T) and Ala (C) alleles were 0.51 and 0.49, respectively in the whole study sample (Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, 2=0.56, p=0.454). Carriers of TT genotype had significantly higher ALT (437.0±1158.0 vs 81.9131.5 U/L), total bilirubin (28.320.5 vs 15.313.0 mol/L) and total bile acid concentrations (10.910.2 vs 6.45.3 mol/L) compared to carriers of TC genotype (U=2.331, p=0.020, U=3.204, p=0.001 and U=2.172, p=0.030, respectively). Higher incidence of 47T allele of SOD2 was inpatients with amiodarone-associated liver injury as compared to patients on amiodarone not experiencing hepatotoxic effects.
Economic Analysis Of The Determinants Of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) In Nigeria

The study examined the factors that determine Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Nigeria. It assessed the extent to which exchange rate, interest rate, degree of trade openness affects foreign direct investment inflow to Nigeria. The study used data from Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Bulletin and World Bank (1981 - 2017). The results were interpreted based on the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method, apart from series of test statistics and some diagnostics on data was performed. The estimated linear regression model reveals that the degree of openness positively and significantly affect FDI. Exchange rate has a positive but non-significant relationship with FDI and interest rate has a negative relationship with FDI, but it is not statistically significant. The study therefore recommends that economic policies that allow free trade should be formulated since macroeconomic policies are important in stabilization, enhance standard growth and improvements in the standard of living as a result of improved and higher productivity.
The Impact of Chronic Illness on Families: a Family Systems Perspective

In this article, a family systems theoretical framework is described for understanding the reciprocal relationships between chronic illness in a family member and the structure and functioning of the family system. The reciprocal impacts between the illness, individual development, and family functioning continue dynamically in a circular pattern of effects over time. Well-adapted families are able to achieve balanced functioning by developing and maintaining their capabilities (resources and coping behaviors) for meeting the continually changing demands (stressors, strains, hassles, chronic illness hardships) they face. This effort to achieve balance is influenced by the meanings families attribute to their situation, as well as to their own identity as a family unit, and to their view of the world. Successful adaptation to chronic illness can best be promoted by focusing on the family system as the unit of intervention. When the family is healthy, the person with chronic illness does better. Families should be encouraged to balance illness needs with other family needs using a style of functioning that is consistent with their existing lifestyle and values.
