Examining Trends in Intake Rates, Client Symptoms, Hopelessness, and Suicidality in a University Counseling Center over 12 Years

The question whether levels of psychopathology and symptom severity among university counseling center client populations are increasing or not has received a great deal of attention in professional psychology. We examined 12-year archival intake records of a university counseling center to test for trends regarding: (a) the overall number of student-clients seeking counseling, (b) the frequency with which specific symptoms were reported, (c) the number of times student-clients reported experiencing hopelessness at various levels of intensity, and (d) the number of times student-clients reported suicide ideation at two levels of intensity. The sample (n = 6,676) was predominantly female (69.2%), White (80.2%), and on average 23.1 years old (SD = 8.0). Individual intake records were converted into monthly counts, which were checked for linear trends over time using autoregressive models. No significant linear trends were found except for a small decreasing trend regarding the number of intake clients reporting advanced suicide ideation (β = –0.019, p = 0.027). Our findings suggest a long-term (i.e., more than 10-year) stability of student-clients’ self-reported symptoms, and corroborate previous findings of short-term (i.e., 5–8 years) stability of client distress at intake over time.
An Array of Novel Murine Spleen Focus-Forming Viruses That Activate the Erythropoietin Receptor

ABSTRACT The Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) env gene encodes a 409-amino-acid glycoprotein with an apparentM r of 55,000 (gp55) that binds to erythropoietin receptors (EpoR) to stimulate erythroblastosis. We reported previously the in vivo selection during serial passages in mice of several evolutionary intermediates that culminated in the formation of a novel SFFV (M. E. Hoatlin, E. Gomez-Lucia, F. Lilly, J. H. Beckstead, and D. Kabat, J. Virol. 72:3602–3609, 1998). A mouse injected with a retroviral vector in the presence of a nonpathogenic helper virus developed long-latency erythroblastosis, and subsequent viral passages resulted in more pathogenic isolates. The viruses taken from these mice converted an erythropoietin-dependent cell line (BaF3/EpoR) into factor-independent derivatives. Western blot analysis of cell extracts with an antiserum that broadly reacts with murine retroviral envelope glycoproteins suggested that the spleen from the initial mouse with mild erythoblastosis contained an array of viral components that were capable of activating EpoR. DNA sequence analysis of the viral genomes cloned from different factor-independent cell clones revealedenv genes with open reading frames encoding 644, 449, and 187 amino acids. All three env genes contained 3′ regions identical to that of SFFV, including a 6-bp duplication and a single-base insertion that have been shown previously to be critical for pathogenesis. However, the three env gene sequences did not contain any polytropic sequences and were divergent in their 5′ regions, suggesting that they had originated by recombination and partial deletions of endogenously inherited MuLV envsequences. These results suggest that the requirements for EpoR activation by SFFV-related viruses are dependent on sequences at the 3′ end of the env gene and not on the polytropic regions or on the 585-base deletions that are common among the classical strains of SFFV. Moreover, sequence analysis of the different recombinants and deletion mutants revealed that short direct and indirect repeat sequences frequently flanked the deletions that had occurred, suggesting a reverse transcriptase template jumping mechanism for this rapid retroviral diversification.
Who Are The Worst-Off When Preferences Matter ∗

The criteria called conditional equality and egalitarian equivalence proposed by Fleurbaey and Maniquet[15, 16] serve to assess the degree of equity among individuals. They have not been applied as often as the criteria of equality of opportunity[28, 30], mainly because the first criteria should be used in an ordinal framework which differs from the cardinal approach usually adopted in the literature on equality of opportunity. But conditional equality and egalitarian equivalence have the advantage to explicitly distinguish between the objective of neutrality with respect to the responsibility factors and the principle of compensation for factors that are beyond the individual's responsibility. This paper proposes an empirical framework that is consistent with these ordinal criteria and enables to compare them with the cardinal criteria. We estimate a utility function that incorporates heterogeneity in preferences among individuals. We obtain ordinal measures of well-being and apply conditional equality and egalitarian equivalence. Then we use the Roemer's Identification Axiom and cardinalize the measure of utility to compute Roemer's and Van de gaer's criteria. Finally we compare the criteria through the characteristics of the worst-off displayed by each criterion for the US.
Selective Mapping of Chemical Space for Pseudomonas aeruginosa Deacetylase LpxC Inhibitory Potential

UDP‐3‐O‐[R‐3‐hydroxymyristoyl]‐GlcNAc deacetylase enzyme of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an interesting target for development of anti‐infective drugs against this gram‐negative bacterium. Many segregated studies analyzing the P. aeruginosa UDP‐3‐O‐[R‐3‐hydroxymyristoyl]‐GlcNAc deacetylase and its inhibitors have been reported in the recent past. In the present study, an attempt has been made to integrate this knowledge for the development of an effective multilayer screening approach. Eventually, an extensive chemical space was screened to filter out three potential P. aeruginosa UDP‐3‐O‐[R‐3‐hydroxymyristoyl]‐GlcNAc deacetylase inhibitors.
Bargaining with Incomplete Information: An Infinite-Horizon Model with Two-Sided Uncertainty

The resolution of any bargaining conflict depends crucially on the relative urgency of the agents to reach agreement and the information each agent has about the others' preferences. This paper explores, within the context of an infinite-horizon bargaining model with two-sided uncertainty, how timing and information affect the rational behaviour of agents when commitment is not possible. Since the bargainers are uncertain about whether trade is desirable, they must communicate some of their private information before an agreement can be reached. This need for learning, due to incomplete information about preferences, results in bargaining inefficiencies: trade often occurs after costly delay. Thus, the model provides an explanation for the inefficient bargaining behaviour that appears to occur often in practice.

This is the historical approach. • License: The author(s) retain copyright, but ACM receives an exclusive publication license. • Open Access: The author(s) wish to pay for the work to be open access. The additional fee must be paid to ACM. This text field is large enough to hold the appropriate release statement assuming it is single spaced in a sans-serif 7 point font. Every submission will be assigned their own unique DOI string to be included here. Abstract New measures of user experience must be defined that can combine the scalability and unobtrusiveness of activity traces with the richness of more traditional measures. Machine learning can be used to predict established UX measures from such activity traces. We advocate research into the type of activity traces needed as input for such measures, the machine learning technology needed, and the user experience components and measures to be predicted.
Design and testing of a rotary arc gap switch for pulsed power

One of the key issues in the pulsed power generation and application is the switch technology. The switches are divided into two categories of the opening and the closing switch. The lack of good repetitive opening switches has inhibited the use of inductive energy storage system despite its high energy density. Being contrasted with the opening switches, the closing switches are relatively simple and can be readily available with capacitive energy storage system. The most popular closing-switches up-to date are spark-gap switches. Theses switches have very limited lifetime due to arc-corrosion resulting from pinch effect and localized arc-heating. To extend the switch lifetime by minimizing electrode-vaporization, rotary arc gap-switches are proposed in the literatures. The rotation of the arc can be achieved by providing rotating magnetic field from outside or by self-induced magnetic field. This study investigates a rotating arc gap (RAG) switch driven by the self-induced magnetic field. The physical dimensions, rotating arc-speed, arc voltage-drop, and its experimental set-up are described in detail.
Ngaju Religion. The Conception of God among a South Borneo People

J. C. VERGOUWEN : The social organisation and customary law of the TobaBatak of northern Sumatra. Translated from the Dutch by Jeune Scott-Kemball. (Koninklijk Instituut voor Taal-, Landen Volkenkunde. Translation Series, 7.) xv, 461 pp., map. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1964. Guilders 38. Vergouwen died in 1933, a few weeks after this monograph had appeared under its original title Het rechtsleben der Toba-bataks, a work worthy in every way of the great school of Indonesian traditional law, adat, founded by his teacher Professor van Vollenhoven at the University of Leiden. This school had from the first been concerned with the application as well as the study of adat; its founder had been responsible for much of the change in attitude which can be seen in the approach by the administration of the Netherlands East Indies to the various legal systems which they found operating among the peoples of Indonesia. Vergouwen, who had developed an interest in tribal customs during his initial service in Borneo and had subsequently studied with van Vollenhoven at Leiden, was placed on special duty in 1927 as head of the Toba Batak Customary Court and ordered to report on that institution and make recommendations for its reform. His report, published in 1930, was the precursor to the present work, based upon his judicial experience and the studies which he made while carrying out his special duties. It served as a textbook in his university and as a handbook for other judicial officers in the Batak area (as Professor Keuning remarks in a prefatory note based upon his own later experiences) and because of its insistence upon the social structure and organization which underlie Batak adat has retained its value as an account of the Toba Batak however many may have been the changes which they have undergone during the past 30 years. Since a knowledge of Dutch is not always to be found, even among those whose primary concern is with the study of South East Asia (let alone among those whose interests are socio-legal rather than regional), the present translation is to be welcomed, providing as it does a reliable, if not particularly readable, version of Vergouwen's fundamental study.
FreeSurf: Application-Centric Wireless Access with SDN

The increasing need for ubiquitous Internet connectivity has led to the deployment of wireless access infrastructure, including public WiFi networks used for mobile data offloading. Despite the density of public WiFi hotspots especially in residential areas, these networks are severely underutilized, with an average of ten percent of active users and an average of one connection per user per month [1]. Since the revenue from the public WiFi infrastructure is much lower than the cellular counterpart, the operators seek opportunities to monetize their WiFi networks. One such opportunity emerges from the intention of mobile application vendors to provide near-ubiquitous Internet access for their clients. In fact, the revenue and any potential business opportunities for mobile application vendors are highly dependent on the users’ connection time. Therefore, both network operators and mobile application vendors have incentives to march together towards a ubiquitous WiFi for their clients. However, the traditional wireless architecture hinders any such opportunity, since it requires clients to subscribe and authenticate to the operator before establishing Internet access. To overcome this limitation, we propose application-centric wireless access, at which Service Providers (SPs) can authenticate and connect their clients through public WiFi networks, free of charge. Application-centric wireless access requires the delegation of user authentication and access from the operator to the Service Provider (SP) in a secure and auditable manner. In particular, user authentication requests should be redirected to authentication servers deployed by SPs, while access control should be enabled such that only
The Theory of Cognitive Spacetime

This article introduces the theory of cognitive spacetime. This account allows us to go beyond the space–time dichotomy that is commonly employed in psychology and cognitive science. Linguistic analysis and experimental review is provided to support the notion that what is commonly referred to as spatial cognition (or mental space) in the cognitive sciences always contains time, and that what is commonly referred to as temporal cognition (or mental time) always contains space. For “spatial cognition” the term object-spatiotemporal cognition (or object spacetime) and for “temporal cognition” the term event-spatiotemporal cognition (or event spacetime) is introduced. In order to exemplify the virtue of the new spacetime account (with its two subdomains, object spacetime and event spacetime) with a specific example, it is investigated how this new notion can substantially refine our understanding of space–time conceptual metaphor. A new conceptual-metaphor spacetime typology for cognitive processing underlying fictive motion and non-fictive motion is also proposed. Implications of the new spacetime account are discussed for metaphorically mapped mental perspective, metaphorically mapped embodiment, and cognitive science in general. Finally, specific reasons are given why the current proposal of cognitive spacetime cannot be equated with the concept of spacetime in modern physics.
The Special Needs of Gifted Girls

Abstract The differential adult achievement level of males and females has been widely noted and lamented. This article examines intellectual, educational, social and personality factors affecting the achievement of the gifted female during the very early years. Potential influences of differential achievement from parental and teacher behaviors, the media, toys and play are described and strategies for nurturing behaviors and attitudes more conducive to adult achievement are discussed.
Integration of heterogeneous databases without common domains using queries based on textual similarity

Most databases contain “name constants” like course numbers, personal names, and place names that correspond to entities in the real world. Previous work in integration of heterogeneous databases has assumed that local name constants can be mapped into an appropriate global domain by normalization. However, in many cases, this assumption does not hold; determining if two name constants should be considered identical can require detailed knowledge of the world, the purpose of the user's query, or both. In this paper, we reject the assumption that global domains can be easily constructed, and assume instead that the names are given in natural language text. We then propose a logic called WHIRL which reasons explicitly about the similarity of local names, as measured using the vector-space model commonly adopted in statistical information retrieval. We describe an efficient implementation of WHIRL and evaluate it experimentally on data extracted from the World Wide Web. We show that WHIRL is much faster than naive inference methods, even for short queries. We also show that inferences made by WHIRL are surprisingly accurate, equaling the accuracy of hand-coded normalization routines on one benchmark problem, and outperforming exact matching with a plausible global domain on a second.
“I think this is maybe our Achilles heel…” exploring GPs’ responses to young people presenting with emotional distress in general practice: a qualitative study

Objective An exploratory study to investigate general practitioners’ (GPs’) views and experiences of consulting with young people (aged 12–19 years) presenting with emotional distress in general practice. Design A qualitative study using grounded theory and situational analysis. Empirical data were generated through in-depth interviews based on a topic guide developed from the literature, and augmented with a series of situational maps. Continuous field notes and theoretical memos were recorded during data collection and analysis. The data were analysed using the constant comparative method of grounded theory. There were three levels of analysis. The first level developed the open codes and is presented here. Setting 18 general practices located in the north east of England. The practices recruited included rural, urban and mixed populations of patients who were predominantly living in socioeconomically disadvantaged communities. Participants 19 GPs (10 women) aged between 29 and 59 years participated. The modal age range was 40–49 years. Theoretical sampling was used to guide recruitment and continued until theoretical saturation was reached. Results The overarching finding was that anxiety about practice dominated clinical consultations involving young people presenting with emotional distress. GPs responded differently to anxiety and to related uncertainties about professional practice, independent of GP age or gender. Anxiety occurred in the consultation, at an external level, across disciplinary boundaries, in relation to communication with young people and secondary to the complexity of presentations. Conclusions Adolescent emotional distress presents professional challenges to GPs who feel ill-equipped and inadequately prepared to address early need. Medical education needs to prepare doctors better. More research is needed to look at what factors facilitate or prohibit greater GP engagement with emotionally distressed young people.
Semantic mapping and K-means applied to hybrid SOM-based document organization system construction

In this paper, we present and evaluate a hybrid document organization system based on Self-Organizing Maps. The proposed system uses Semantic Mapping to dimensionality reduction and K-means to volume reduction of document vectors of a medium text collection. The vectors obtained after dimensionality and volume reduction steps are used to train the document maps with the SOM algorithm, thus the training time is reduced without compromising the quality of the generated map. We compare experimentally the hybrid system with the correspondent SOM system in organization of documents of Reuters-21758 v1.0 collection. The performances of the systems were measured in terms of classification error in text categorization and training time. The experimental results show that the proposed system generates pretty good document maps with smallest training time.
Towards 5G-enabled Tactile Internet: Radio resource allocation for haptic communications

The Tactile Internet will be able to transport touch and actuation in real-time. The primary application running over the Tactile Internet will be haptic communications. Design efforts for both the Tactile Internet and the haptic communications are at a nascent stage. It is expected that the next generation (5G) wireless networks will play a key role in realizing the Tactile Internet. On the other hand, Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) networks would be an integral component of the 5G ecosystem. Therefore, exploring the potential of LTE-A networks for haptic communications would be an important step towards realizing the Tactile Internet. To this end, the main objective of this paper is to investigate radio resource allocation for haptic communications in LTE-A networks. The radio resource requirements of haptic communications have been translated into a unique resource allocation problem which becomes particularly challenging due to the specific constraints of multiple access schemes in LTE-A networks. Novel heuristic algorithm has been developed to solve the resource allocation problem. Performance evaluation has been conducted using simulation studies for a recently proposed 5G air-interface design.
Discipline and punish in the weight room

Building on the work of scholars in sport and physical cultural studies, coach educators have recently demonstrated the usefulness of Foucault's theorising to critique dominant coaching practices. However, to date, no research has applied Foucault's concepts to strength and conditioning coaching. Much of the strength and conditioning research is void of its historical and socio-cultural context, and lacks the complexity involved in the coaching act. The purpose of this personal narrative is to demonstrate how power operates (with knowledge) upon the social body to produce ‘unintended effects’ of dominant coaching practices. A creative non-fiction story was created by drawing upon my (the first author's) collegiate strength and conditioning coaching experiences and Foucault's Discipline and Punish. In particular, the tale examines the effects of exercising power-knowledge within the context of docile bodies, underperformance, injury, poor exercise technique, and the coach–athlete relationship.
Automated test data generation for distributed software

A novel approach to automating test data generation for distributed programs is presented. The approach is based on actual execution of the program under test, a run-time scheduler, function minimization methods, and dynamic dataflow analysis. Test data are developed for the program using actual values of the input variables. When the program is executed, the program execution flow is monitored. If during program execution an undesirable execution flow is observed then function minimization search algorithms are used to automatically locate the values of input variables for which the selected path is traversed. In addition, dynamic dataflow analysis is used to determine those input variables responsible for the undesirable program behavior, which can lead to significant speed-up of the search process. <<ETX>>
Adult-Student Sexual Harassment in British Columbia High Schools

Abstract To determine the prevalence and impact of adult-student sexually harassing behavior in British Columbia high schools, the High School Experiences Questionnaire was distributed to 449 undergraduate psychology students at the University of British Columbia. Thirty-seven and one-half percent of students reported being sexually harassed by school adult employees. There was no significant difference in the proportion of male and female students that experienced potentially sexually harassing behavior. However, female students were more upset than male students by sexually harassing behaviors. Overall, high school SES and type of school (public versus private) were not related to sexual harassment. An evaluation of reporting and discipline indicates that overall 1.4% of cases concluded with formal discipline of the perpetrator.
