Devlet Tiyatrosu ve Habitus: Pıerre Bourdıeu Sosyolojisi Kapsamında Devlet Tiyatrosu Repertuvarındaki Çeviri Oyunlara Bakış
Authors: ENGİNSU Melda
Published: November 2023

Bu çalışmada Pierre Bourdieu’nün sosyolojisi bağlamında tiyatro çevirisinin kültürel eyleyiciliği, Devlet Tiyatrosunun sahnelediği çeviri oyunların dil çeşitliliği ve kanon ile çağdaş eserlerin temalarına göre ele alınacaktır. Tiyatro çevirisi sadece Türkiye'de değil, küresel akademide de ihmal edilen bir alan olduğu için hem tiyatronun hem de çeviribilimin disiplinler arası yönlerinden yararlanmak daha fazla veri derlemek açısından önemlidir. Özellikle tiyatro çevirisi, tiyatro metni ve çeviri eleştirisinden çok daha fazlasını ele alan bir araştırma alanı olduğundan, tiyatronun disiplinler arası biçimini ve çeviriyi bir sanat eseri olarak ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Bu bağlamda Bourdieu’nün çalışma kapsamında ayrı başlıklar altında kuramsal çerçevede ele alınan alan, habitus ve sermaye kavramlarının oluşturduğu kuramsal çerçeve, çeviri tiyatro oyunlarının mümkün kıldığı kültürel eyleyicilik rolünü ve tiyatro alanında yarattığı habitusu incelemeye imkân tanımaktadır. 1949 yılında resmi olarak kurulan Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devlet Tiyatrolarının çeviri oyunlar ile oluşturduğu habitus, kuruluşu itibariyle üstlendiği tiyatro kültürü oluşturma, tiyatroya seyirci yetiştirme ve kültürel sınıf bilinci oluşturma görevleriyle şekillendirilmiştir. Bu bağlamda çalışmada kurulduğu tarihten günümüze değin repertuvarında çeşitli dillerden ve çeşitli temalarla çeviri oyun barındıran Devlet Tiyatrolarının, 2000 ile 2020 yılları arasında İstanbul Devlet Tiyatrosunda sahnelediği çeviri oyunların dil ve temalarına bağlı kültürel izdüşümü ile seyircilerin yeni ve güncel olan oyunlarla buluşturma misyonunun ne denli devam ettirildiği ortaya koyulacaktır.
Review of research on microteaching in mathematics teacher education: Promises and challenges
Authors: Mukuka Angel , Alex Jogymol Kalariparampil
Published: November 2023

Microteaching has been viewed as a professional development tool that gives pre-service teachers the chance to strengthen their teaching skills. This paper presents an overview of the research on microteaching in mathematics teacher education, noting its prospects and challenges while also making recommendations for modifications to its application. A thorough analysis of 28 empirical papers on microteaching in mathematics teacher preparation that were published between 2000 and 12 May 2023, was conducted. Findings demonstrate that microteaching is an effective approach for enhancing pre-service teachers’ core mathematics teaching skills. It is suggested that microteaching, which begins in a laboratory setting with the development of essential teaching skills, should not end there; it should give trainee teachers an opportunity to learn and practice in a real classroom context. Microteaching activities require more time, more supervisors, and more resources to function at its maximum capacity. Technology has also demonstrated greater promise when it comes to enhancing microteaching’s position in facilitating the development of pre-service mathematics teachers’ instructional skills.

This paper describes a proposed high-specification standard format that is ideally suited for the data management of definitive records of wellbore logs. For this reason, it is a good standard for data exchange between applications. The format is suitable for complex three-dimensional (3D) data, including those generated by deep azimuthal resistivity (DAR) and ultradeep azimuthal resistivity (UDAR) tools, acoustic borehole reflection images, vertical seismic profiles (VSP), borehole imaging tools, multifingered caliper logs, and array data with multiple depths of investigation. It is applicable for use with logging-while-drilling (LWD) and wireline-conveyed logging tools. The format also naturally collapses down when utilized to store simple conventional logs that contain one value per depth in the wellbore. The proposed format provides spatial details of every data point collected by or interpreted from a wellbore-logging tool. The position of each data point is defined by reference back to the measure point of the sonde, which in turn is defined by the wellbore deviation survey and its coordinate reference system (CRS). Each data point in space may have an unrestricted number of parameters. An example might be most likely horizontal and vertical resistivity, maximum value based on uncertainty, minimum value based on uncertainty, and flags indicating the data position with respect to depth of detection (DOD). The new proposed format is so versatile. It is suitable as an Open Group Open Subsurface Data UniverseTM (OSDUTM) standard to store and exchange all data measured by logging tools in a wellbore and can possibly be extended to include all well data (for example, core, cuttings, and more). The proposed format requires a detailed definition so that computer scientists can implement it in applications used for subsurface modeling. The OSDU will also require this detailed definition in order to adopt it as a standard.
Time-Scaling Creep in Salt Rocks for Underground Storage
Authors:   University of Houston, Khan Talha H. , Myers Michael T. ,   University of Houston, Hathon Lori ,   University of Houston, Unomah Gabriel C. ,   University of Houston
Published: November 2023

Salt is an elastoviscoplastic material that exhibits time-dependent deformation (creep). Experimental measurements of salt creep behavior help predict underground gas repositories’ long-term geomechanical behavior. Previous time-scaling creep experiments have focused on the axial strain of unconsolidated sands. i.e., time-scaling creep effects under zero lateral strain conditions without describing the creep behavior of the radial strain. In addition, the time-scaling creep of the radial and axial strain has not been investigated in salts. A comparative testing procedure and analysis method was conducted on Spindletop salt plugs using triaxial tests for multistage triaxial tests (MST) and different holding time durations and stress regimes, resulting in time-dependent strain responses (creep tests). The MST showed evolving deformational mechanisms under the mapped yield surface based on the irrecoverable to recoverable strain ratio beginning with crack closure or conformance, plasticity, and ending at early crystal surface failure. Unlike unconsolidated sands, salts showed both time and strain amplitude scaling. The axial and radial strain data show scaling behavior under low and high levels of deviatoric stress separated by a transitional period. The salt showed only an axial creep response at low deviatoric stress distally from the yield surface (one-dimesional (1D) response or zero lateral strain), which indicates negative dilatant deformation or uniaxial compaction. In contrast, the salts showed equal strain amplitude scaling factors both axially and radially at high deviatoric stress proximal to the yield surface (two-dimensional (2D) response or unconstrained boundary condition), which suggests positive dilatant deformation. Microstructural images showed accumulated creep damage under high deviatoric stress associated with parallel planes of dislocation-intergranular slip, microcracking, and compaction-induced dilational strains. The period of scaling is interpreted as regions where a single mechanism is dominating. Strain amplitude scaling for both low and high deviatoric creep stress tests provides inputs for a constitutive model of creep response in understanding the magnitude of mechanical damage associated with time-independent stress-strain curves in salts for the structural integrity of salt caverns during cyclic fluid injection and depletion.
Effect of Predisolved Natural Gas on CO2 Solubility in Water With Various Salinities at Reservoir Conditions
Authors:   Intertek Westport Technology Center, Wang Jie , Wang Jie ,   University of Houston, Ehlig-Economides Christine ,   University of Houston
Published: November 2023

Dissolution of CO2 in saline waters is considered one of three main CO2 trapping mechanisms, along with structural/stratigraphic trapping and mineralization. CO2 can dissolve in fresh/saline water under typical reservoir pressure and temperatures. Its solubility is dependent on pressure, temperature, and salinity. CO2 solubility studies typically consider saline water or fresh water as a liquid without any predissolved gases. The reality is formation water may contain appreciable dissolved gases for all pressure and temperature conditions. An example of gas-water ratio (GWR) can be ~1 scf/stb for formation water in an oil reservoir and ~5 to 6 scf/stb for a deep saline aquifer. Therefore, it is essential to quantify the effect of brine salinity on CO2 solubility in “live” saline waters. Just as “live” oil denotes reservoir oil that contains solution gas, we define “live” brine as saline water that includes dissolved gases. Conversely, “dead” brine refers to saline water devoid of any dissolved gas content. Two sets of experiments were conducted under typical reservoir conditions. The first set of experiments evaluated the CO2 solubility in live formation water. The second set of experiments evaluated how variation in the live brine salinity affected CO2 solubility. These experiments involved 1) synthesis of the brine, 2) synthesis of natural gas mixture, 3) recombination of live formation water with a natural gas mixture and transfer into a high-pressure and high-temperature pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) visual cell, 4) CO2 addition to the PVT cell, and 5) bubblepoint pressure determination within the PVT cell. The results showed that CO2 solubility in live formation water is significantly less than that in “dead” water under reservoir conditions. In addition, the brine salinity affects CO2 solubility in live formation water by further reducing CO2 solubility with increasing live brine salinity. As the brine salinity increases, very little CO2 can be dissolved in the live brine once it reaches a certain solubility. An understanding of CO2 dissolution in live saline water is essential for future CCUS evaluation and execution.

A Comparison of Latent Semantic Analysis and Latent Dirichlet Allocation in Educational Measurement
Authors: Wheeler Jordan M. , Cohen Allan S. , Wang Shiyu
Published: November 2023

Topic models are mathematical and statistical models used to analyze textual data. The objective of topic models is to gain information about the latent semantic space of a set of related textual data. The semantic space of a set of textual data contains the relationship between documents and words and how they are used. Topic models are becoming more common in educational measurement research as a method for analyzing students’ responses to constructed-response items. Two popular topic models are latent semantic analysis (LSA) and latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA). LSA uses linear algebra techniques, whereas LDA uses an assumed statistical model and generative process. In educational measurement, LSA is often used in algorithmic scoring of essays due to its high reliability and agreement with human raters. LDA is often used as a supplemental analysis to gain additional information about students, such as their thinking and reasoning. This article reviews and compares the LSA and LDA topic models. This article also introduces a methodology for comparing the semantic spaces obtained by the two models and uses a simulation study to investigate their similarities.

Maintaining interconnected infrastructures such as transportation, communication, power grids, and pipeline networks is paramount in emerging economies. One of the critical interruptions is the targeted attacks on the operating cyber-physical systems to disconnect operations, inspection, or monitoring of the system. Therefore, adopting a cybersecurity system (or platform) that provides holistic protection is vital for protecting the integrity of critical infrastructure networks. As such, this research aspires to provide a decision support system for cybersecurity managers or practitioners (in the Indian power sector) to select the best and appropriate platform for protection against cyber-attacks. A three-phase method is adopted. First, a literature search followed by an expert panel discussion identified alternatives (cybersecurity platforms) and selection criteria. Next, a questionnaire was developed. Thirdly, a hybrid Best-Worst Improved and COmprehensive distance-Based RAnking (BWM-I and COBRA) method was proposed and applied to evaluate the cybersecurity platform alternatives. Four alternatives (Cloud-Based Platforms, Web-Based Platforms, Application-Based Platforms, and AI-Based Platforms), six primary criteria, and fifteen unique sub-criteria were identified. Responses were collected from 80 power utility managers on a pan-India basis, ranking "End-to-End Coverage" criteria and the AI-Based platform as best. This approach identified the best cybersecurity platform that, if adopted, can be extended to other critical infrastructures, with an appropriate adjustment in the selection criteria. The study can be helpful to practitioners in evaluating cybersecurity platforms. Furthermore, it addresses a research gap in its application in a developing country like India.
Climate, Livelihood Insecurity and Conflict in Artisanal Fishing
Authors: SUZA MA
Published: November 2023

This research aims to investigate the connections between climate factors, livelihood security, and conflict as perceived by fishermen. Despite being a traditional livelihood passed down through generations, artisanal fishing is no longer a financially viable option for various reasons and many fishers experience livelihood insecurity and conflict. To delve into this issue, a mixed-method approach was employed to collect comprehensive data on the experiences and viewpoints of fishermen residing on Hatiya Island, a densely populated sandbar in Southern Bangladesh. This data encompassed their encounters with extreme climate events, conflicts, violence, and harassment, as well as their strategies to cope with these challenges. Fishermen acknowledge that weather patterns have undergone changes over time, impacting fish populations and availability. However, climate change is not the sole driver undermining their livelihoods. Existing socio-economic and institutional conditions and interactions have pushed fishermen to breaking point, influencing their decisions to engage in illegal fishing and leading to violent conflicts with the authorities responsible for enforcing fishing ban regulations. Despite such violent conflicts, many fishermen persist in pursuing their livelihoods, and the majority are committed to remaining on the island. To address the violent conflicts arising with the Coastguards, some (Hindu) fishermen on Hatiya Island have made the decision to migrate to other locations, including permanent transborder migration. Nevertheless, migration is not a feasible option for all fishermen, and the remaining fishers continue their lives ignoring the challenges but harbouring deep-seated resentment.
Alternative News, Alternative Views? How Populist Alternative News Consumption Contributes to Political Attitudes During the 2021 Federal Election in Germany
Authors: Bach Ruben L. , Areal João , Müller Philipp
Published: November 2023

While recent work has studied the determinants of alternative news consumption, we know little about how alternative news exposure does, consequently, shape individuals’ political views. We tackle this question using three waves of panel survey data combined with detailed records of respondents’ online behavior collected in Germany during the 2021 federal election (2,112 participants). Focusing on a variety of key variables such as political, and media trust, populist attitudes, attitudes towards democracy and towards two salient political issues (immigration and climate change), we explore whether exposure to populist alternative news websites influences individuals’ self-reported political attitudes using within-between longitudinal regression models. Results indicate that changes in populist alternative news media consumption over time led to attitudinal change only for some variables (i.e., satisfaction with democracy and importance of environmental protection). Irrespective of longitudinal trajectories, we find that those who consume more alternative news have lower media and political trust, exhibit higher populist attitudes, sympathy to right-wing populist AfD party, and climate-skeptical issue positions. We interpret this as evidence that short-term media effects of alternative news consumption on individuals’ attitudes are limited. Yet, alternative news use is clearly associated with right-wing populist attitudes. We conclude that (1) the influence of alternative news media consumption may operate in the long run or (2) people with a specific set of attitudes might self-select into alternative news media consumption which could, then, contribute to the maintenance of their political convictions over time.

Published: November 2023

The Upper Mississippi Information System (UMIS) is a cyberinfrastructure framework designed to support large-scale real-time water quality data integration, analysis, and visualization for the Upper Mississippi River Basin (UMRB). UMIS is intended to directly address three of the Grand Challenges for Engineering including: 1) understanding access to clean drinking water, 2) management of the nitrogen cycle, and 3) engineering the tools of scientific discovery. The UMIS is designed to provide significant immediate and long-term impacts including a central platform for data access, integration, discovery, and adoption of cyberinfrastructure tools and services. The UMIS demonstrates that public data aggregators and central repositories can provide important services to anyone interested in water quality research or education. In addition, working across multiple scales (e.g., state, region, county, or watershed) allows researchers to understand broad and narrow effects of water quality strategies. Exploration of data across these scales encourages the development of problem-based research questions that can eventually provide feedback to public policies.
Regional Gender Bias and Year Predict Gender Representation on Civil Trial Teams
Authors: Phalen Hannah , Lawrence Megan , Gittings Kristen , Eerdmans Rose , Thomas Sara , Line Emily N. , Bettis Taylor , Salerno Jessica
Published: November 2023

Objective: There are documented gender disparities in the legal field. We examined whether gender representation on civil trial teams varied on the basis of (a) the degree of regional gender bias “in the air” and (b) time. Hypotheses: We hypothesized that women were underrepresented both on trial teams and in leadership roles within those teams. We predicted that these gender disparities were exacerbated in regions with stronger regional gender bias and that these gender disparities attenuated over time. Method: We coded attorney gender and case outcomes in real civil trials (N = 655). We created regional implicit and explicit gender bias scores based on the year and region of the case using Project Implicit data. Finally, we used order-constrained inference and Bayesian modeling to identify the best-performing models. Results: Overall, women represented only 17% of attorneys at trial and 13% in leadership roles—indicating vast gender disparities. Gender disparities on teams and in leadership roles were more extreme in regions with high (vs. low) regional gender bias (teams: Bayes factor [BF] = 9,182; leadership: BF = 91,667) and improved over time (teams: BF = 6,420; leadership: BF = 3,495). Gender alone best predicted the likelihood of serving in a leadership role (BF = 1,197,397). Conclusion: Female attorneys were grossly underrepresented on civil trial teams. Gender representation on teams, but not leadership roles, has improved slightly over time. Culture may also contribute; women were less represented on trial teams in regions with greater gender bias in the air—particularly in leadership roles. Despite these slight improvements in representation on trial teams over time and in low-bias regions, gender disparities in leadership roles persist over time and levels of regional bias.
The Temporal Dynamics of Visual Attention
Authors: Zhang Han , Sellers Jacob , Lee Taraz , Jonides John
Published: November 2023

Researchers have long debated how humans select relevant objects amid physically salient distractions. An increasingly popular view holds that the key to avoiding distractions lies in suppressing the attentional priority of a salient distractor. However, the precise mechanisms of distractor suppression remain elusive. Because the computation of attentional priority is a time-dependent process, distractor suppression must be understood within these temporal dynamics. In four experiments, we tracked the temporal dynamics of visual attention using a novel forced-response method, by which participants were required to express their latent attentional priority at varying processing times via saccades. We show that attention could either be biased toward or away from a salient distractor depending on the timing of observation, with these temporal dynamics varying substantially across experiments. These dynamics were explained by a computational model assuming the distractor and target priority signals arrive asynchronously in time and with different influences on saccadic behavior. The model suggests that distractor signal suppression can be achieved via a “slow” mechanism in which the distractor priority signal dictates saccadic behavior until a late-arriving priority signal overrides it, or a “fast” mechanism which directly suppresses the distractor priority signal’s behavioral expression. The two mechanisms are temporally dissociable and can work collaboratively, resulting in time-dependent patterns of attentional allocation. The current work underscores the importance of considering the temporal dynamics of visual attention and provides a computational architecture for understanding the mechanisms of distractor suppression.
Components of Multiple Health Behavior Change Interventions for patients with chronic conditions: A systematic review and meta-regression of randomized trials

Published: November 2023

Interventions addressing more than one health behavior at a time could be an efficient way of intervening to manage chronic conditions. Within a systematic review of multiple health behavior change (MBHC) interventions, we identified key components of interventions in patients with chronic conditions, assessed how they are linked to theory, behavior change techniques implemented, and evaluated their impact on intervention effectiveness. Studies were identified by systematically searching five electronic databases. Subgroup analyses and meta-regressions were conducted to analyze the association between intervention components and behavioral changes. In total, 61 studies were included spanning different chronic conditions. Most interventions sought to change behaviors simultaneously (72%), often targeting the ‘physical activity, diet and smoking’ cluster of behaviors (33%), and were not theory informed (55%). A total of 36 behavior change techniques were identified. Subgroup analyses indicated that MHBC interventions delivered entirely face-to-face might not be as effective for physical activity outcomes, and not using goal setting (behavior) might be more effective for smoking cessation outcomes. Meta-regressions indicated that longer intervention duration may work best to achieve better physical activity outcomes. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of interventions and contributes to the field of MHBC by facilitating data-driven insights for future optimization and dissemination.
A configurational view on technology acceptance: the example of highly integrated collaboration platforms
Authors: Kopplin Cristopher
Published: November 2023

Highly integrated software environments for various routine and non-routine tasks promise productivity gains for organizations. To fulfill this promise, users need to be willing to employ the new technology. A combined perspective of sufficient and necessary conditions in the form of fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) and, necessary condition analysis (NCA) is used to examine the technology acceptance of workstream collaboration tools, advancing examinations from a multivariate perspective to a more holistic view. One hundred thirty participants were trained in the software application Slack for three months. Following the training period, configurational analysis using fsQCA and NCA based on a unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) framework was conducted based on 116 qualified questionnaires. Necessity assessment shows that all influence factors exhibit necessity properties, with facilitating conditions and effort expectancy most substantially constraining an individual’s intention to use. Sufficiency evaluation confirms UTAUT’s variable choice and identifies social influence as a key condition that enables intention to use. Segmentation according to gender further reveals that effort expectancy and facilitating conditions are necessary conditions for female users but not for males.

Published: November 2023

Big data and related technologies have the potential to transform healthcare sectors by facilitating improvements to healthcare planning and delivery. Big data research highlights the importance of aligning big data implementations with business needs to achieve success. In one of the first studies to examine the influence of big data on business-IT alignment in the healthcare sector, this paper addresses the question: how do stakeholders’ perceptions of big data influence alignment between big data technologies and healthcare sector needs across macro, meso, and micro levels in the New Zealand (NZ) healthcare sector? A qualitative inquiry was conducted using semi-structured interviews to understand perceptions of big data across the NZ healthcare sector. An application of a novel theory, Theory of Sociotechnical Representations (TSR), is used to examine people’s perceptions of big data technologies and their applicability in their day-to-day work. These representations are analysed at each level and then across levels to evaluate the degree of alignment. A social dimension lens to alignment was used to explore mutual understanding of big data across the sector. The findings show alignment across the sector through the shared understanding of the importance of data quality, the increasing challenges of privacy and security, and the importance of utilising modern and new data in measuring health outcomes. Areas of misalignment include the differing definitions of big data, as well as perceptions around data ownership, data sharing, use of patient-generated data and interoperability. Both practical and theoretical contributions of the study are discussed.
Data-Driven Organizations: Review, Conceptual Framework, and Empirical Illustration

With companies and other organizations increasingly striving to become (more) data-driven, there has been growing research interest in the notion of a data-driven organization (DDO). In existing literature, however, different understandings of such an organization emerged. The study at hand sets forth to synthesize the fragmented body of research through a review of existing DDO definitions and implicit understandings of this concept in the information systems and related literatures. Based on the review results and drawing on the established concept of the “knowing organization,” our study identifies five core dimensions of a DDO—namely, data sourcing & sensemaking, data capabilities, data-driven culture, data-driven decision-making, and data-driven value creation—which we integrate into a conceptual DDO framework. Most notably, the proposed framework suggests that—like its predecessor, the knowing organization—a DDO may draw on an outside-in view; however, it may also draw on an inside-out view, or even combine the two views, thereby setting itself apart from the knowing organization. To illustrate our conceptual DDO framework and demonstrate its usefulness, we apply this framework to three empirical examples. Theoretical and practical contributions as well as directions for future research are discussed.
