Authors: Furtado Jazmin , Mastey Taiylar , Menke Sara , Gonzalez Gerardo , Pietz Jesse , Wilck Joseph 
Published: March 2021

This work studies a medical product development, assembly, and packaging company that uses a paper-based method to track jobs through their assembly process. The paperwork often has errors, which must be corrected before distribution, causing delays in manufacturing and shipment and resulting in lost time and money. The project team analyzed the company's production process to identify areas for improvement. Through statistical analyses of the company’s process data, the team established error categorization, location, and probability of occurrence. In order to address sources of error, the project team diagrammed the company's manufacturing floor and created a list of issues within each step of the manufacturing process as well as potential solutions to these problems. The team created a simulation of the manufacturing process and used this tool to analyze potential process changes to decrease the number of employee hours wasted in order to fix discrepancies. The simulation proved to be an invaluable tool that helped the company better understand their process. It helped to identify which jobs create the most errors, how many errors occur per month, and how much money the company loses on time spent correcting the errors. Eleven potential solutions were considered, but two of them appeared to yield the best results. Implementing a total quality management (TQM) system would conservatively reduce error counts by 71.3%. Implementing a start quantity to the company's electronic system would conservatively reduce mean hours wasted from 22.60 to 21.73 hours per month and mean salary lost from $519.82 to $499.80 per month. Using insights from the simulation, the project team then coordinated with management to decide whether error rates or time and salary spent to correct errors were more important to address. As of this writing, as a result of this study, the company is taking steps to implement a TQM system in order to decrease errors in their job tracking process.
A Methodology for Appropriate Testing When Data is Heterogeneous Using EXCEL
Authors: Khanh Nguyen , Lee Jimin , Reiser Susan , Parsons Donna , Russell Sara , Yearout Robert DeWitt 
Published: March 2021

A Methodology for Appropriate Testing When Data is Heterogeneous was originally published and copy written in the mid-1990s in Turbo Pascal and a 16-bit operating system. While working on an ergonomic dissertation (Yearout, 1987), the author determined that the perceptual lighting preference data was heterogeneous and not normal. Drs. Milliken and Johnson, the authors of Analysis of Messy Data Volume I: Designed Experiments (1989), advised that Satterthwaite’s Approximation with Bonferroni’s Adjustment to correct for pairwise error be used to analyze the heterogeneous data. This technique of applying linear combinations with adjusted degrees of freedom allowed the use of t-Table criteria to make group comparisons without using standard nonparametric techniques. Thus data with unequal variances and unequal sample sizes could be analyzed without losing valuable information. Variances to the 4th power were so large that they could not be reentered into basic calculators. The solution was to develop an original software package which was written in Turbo Pascal on a 7 ¼ inch disk 16-bit operating system. Current operating systems of 32 and 64 bits and more efficient programming languages have made the software obsolete and unusable. Using the old system could result either in many returns being incorrect or the system terminating. The purpose of this research was to develop a spreadsheet algorithm with multiple interactive EXCEL worksheets that will efficiently apply Satterthwaite’s Approximation with Bonferroni’s Adjustment to solve the messy data problem. To ensure that the pedagogy is accurate, the resulting package was successfully tested in the classroom with academically diverse students. A comparison between this technique and EXCEL’s Add-Ins Analysis ToolPak for a t-test Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances was conducted using several different data sets. The results of this comparison were that the EXCEL Add-Ins returned incorrect significant differences. Engineers, ergonomists, psychologists, and social scientists will find the developed program very useful. A major benefit is that spreadsheets will continue to be current regardless of evolving operating systems’ status.
Current Use of Management Systems and Quality Tools in Companies Located in the State of Puebla Province, Mexico and Surroundings
Authors: Gomez-Jaimes Luis , Cuautle-Gutierrez Luis 
Published: March 2021

According to what Geert Hofstede stated in his study of cultural dimensions, the Mexican society it is characterized for having a relatively small desire to save for the future and wanting quick results; this type of disruption also occurs in most firms placed in Mexico. One way of effectively managing the companies and stopping them from falling into this kind of disorganization, is through the implementation of quality tools and quality management systems (QMS). Nonetheless, are the companies in the state of Puebla and its surroundings, using these methods to achieve a continuous improvement? Or are these methods being “implemented” to keep operating in the current market? The main objective of this paper is to show that the knowledge acquired during college by employees about QMS and QCT and their application in the industries located in the studied region, allows highlighting a contrast as indicated in the study of cultural dimensions.
Developing an Exoskeleton Test Plan for the TALOS Program

Published: March 2021

As America’s global adversaries increase their capabilities on the battlefield, US military forces must enhance warfighter’s survivability, lethality, and mobility. These needs can be met by augmenting warfighters with additional equipment. The increased use of equipment, however, creates an additional need for an exoskeleton that can support the added equipment, while also augmenting the warfighter’s mobility. Traditionally, exoskeletons have had acceptance issues related to poor operational mobility. USSOCOM is building the Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit (TALOS) as the next generation of these armored exoskeletons. This paper explains the methodology for developing a test plan to ensure adequate mobility for the warfighter wearing the TALOS system. Operational missions were decomposed into tasks which were further broken down into individual movements. Motion capture data was used to determine the angles and angular velocities imposed on relevant joints during these movements. This information was mapped to a set of exercises that were then compiled into a test plan, which can be used during the testing phase to ensure proper mobility for operators utilizing the system.
Unconcealed Questions
Authors: Fleisher Nicholas 
Published: March 2021

Which price does John know? This sentence exemplifies what I call an unconcealed question (UQ): a sentence with a structure and meaning analogous to those of an ordinary concealed question (CQ), but where the sentence is interrogative in form and interpretation, with the relevant DP headed by which. Such examples are almost completely unstudied in the otherwise wide-ranging CQ literature. As I show, UQs exhibit a proper subset of the ambiguities that have been observed for ordinary CQs. In particular, UQs lack what is known as Reading B, where a relative clause (or other modifying adjunct) containing the relevant sort of predicate is interpreted in the scope of the higher CQ-selecting predicate (e.g. know). I survey the properties of UQs and evaluate the CQ theories currently on the market in light of the UQ data, concluding tentatively that the absence of Reading B is the result of syntactic factors whose description is straightforward but whose explanation remains murky.
An Epistemic Bridge for Presupposition Projection in Questions
Authors: Theiler Nadine 
Published: March 2021

It is often assumed that presuppositions in wh-questions project universally. However, Schwarz & Simonenko (2018) note examples of such questions where universal projection is absent. I discuss their account and propose an alternative: by reasoning about the pragmatics of question-answer discourse, I arrive at a version of Stalnaker's bridge principle that is sensitive to what the speaker already knows about the true answer to the question. This Epistemic Bridge predicts universal projection for canonical information-seeking questions, but less than universal projection for certain non-canonical question uses such as quiz questions.
Dynamic presupposition of want and polarity sensitivity
Authors: Goncharov Julie 
Published: March 2021

In this paper, I argue that content of some presuppositions is determined dynamically. In particular, it is shown that the presupposition of want in control constructions depends on the interpretation of an action in the complement clause. Different presuppositional content of sentences with want is argued for using new and known observations about licensing of Polarity Sensitive Items. I propose to capture the dynamic nature of the presupposition of want using the AGM paradigm for belief revision (Alchourrán, Gärdenfors & Makinson 1985). Finally, I show that sensitivity to the interpretation of an action as intentional versus accidental is not specific to polarity system, but can be found across different domains of the grammar in many unrelated languages.
Searching for a universal constraint on the possible denotations of clause-embedding predicates
Authors: Roelofsen Floris , Uegaki Wataru 
Published: March 2021

We propose a new universal constraint on the relationship between the meaning of a clause-embedding predicate when it takes an interrogative complement and its meaning when it takes a declarative complement. According to this proposal, every clause-embedding predicate V satisfies a constraint that we refer to as P-to-Q Entailment. That is, for any exhaustivity-neutral interrogative complement Q, if there is an answer p to Q such that "x Vs p" is true, then it follows that "x Vs Q" is true as well. We discuss empirical advantages of this proposal over existing proposals and explore potential counterexamples to P-to-Q Entailment.
A new case of low modality: Goal PPs*
Authors: Martin Fabienne , Grant Margaret , Piñón Christopher , Schäfer Florian 
Published: March 2021

This paper provides experimental evidence from German and English against the view that a goal to/zu-PP in combination with a motion verb designates a goal that is reached. We propose that to/zu have a modal meaning, responsible for the defeasibility of the inference that the goal is reached. We argue that the type of subjects (intentional agent vs. accidental agent or theme) determines the flavor of the (necessity) modal encoded by the preposition (teleological or circumstantial), which allows us to account for the observed variation in the strength of the inference with the type of subjects and the type of verbs.
Causality and aspect in ability, actuality, and implicativity
Authors: Nadathur Prerna 
Published: March 2021

Past-tense ability ascriptions (e.g., "was able") alternate between pure, potentially unrealized ability and an interpretation which actualizes the ability. The alternation extends to abilitative uses of possibility modals, with actualized readings strengthening to actuality entailments under perfective aspect in aspect-marking languages (Bhatt 1999). These interpretations resist explanation on accounts which seek to derive them in the composition of modality and aspect. I build on causal analyses of implicative inferences (from lexical implicatives like "manage" as well as 'variably-implicative' "enough" comparatives; Baglini & Francez 2016, Nadathur 2016, 2017) to propose a new approach to actuality inferences, grounded in a causal semantics for ability predicates. This account derives both pure ability and actuality readings, and explains parallels between implicative "manage" and actualized ability on the basis of shared (presuppositional) causal structure. "Manage" and ability differ in asserted content, but the difference is neutralized – producing actuality entailments – under a perfective operator which selects for eventive predicates, and combines with stative ability attributions only via aspectual coercion.
Menstrual Restriction on Health, Education, and Empowerment: A Review of Literature
Authors: Paudel Radha , Budathoki Chitra Bahadur , Shahi Prakash 
Published: March 2021

A menstrual restriction is a form of social suffering which is also identified as a violation of the constitutional right globally. But menstrual restriction-related work is still a neglected area. This paper has adopted traditional types of reviews to conceptualize how the health, education, and empowerment of women have been affected by the menstrual restriction.
This study suggests, the menstrual-related restriction is not only a developing world issue but exists globally which has a high impact on girl's health, education, and empowerment. Though, the research on implementation and evaluation of the menstrual restriction is still needed to establish the evidence.

Resumo
O objetivo deste artigo é elucidar e debater sobre o envelhecimento no Brasil e no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, pois acreditamos que saúde mental é um tema muito complexo e que muitas vezes é arraigado de preconceitos, ainda mais em se tratando de pessoas idosas e, por isso, por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica de livros, resoluções do CFP – Conselho Federal de Psicologia e artigos científicos, Constituição Federal e Leis Federais, buscamos conteúdo para discutir esse assunto que é pouco debatido dentro da Psicologia. Afinal, em nossas pesquisas, encontramos mais artigos e conteúdos sobre velhice dentro da Enfermagem do que em outras profissões. A conclusão a qual chegamos é que os e as profissionais de saúde mental sejam pessoas dispostas a se adaptar nos diversos espaços de atuação, garantindo que o trabalho não fique engessado em práticas muitas vezes voltadas mais para o consultório particular, mas sempre norteado pela Ciência, pelo Código de Ética da Psicologia e, não menos importante, as resoluções do CFP – Conselho Federal de Psicologia, porque sem isso, corremos o risco de realizar um serviço de baixa qualidade, sem validação científica e que pode prejudicar mais do que ajudar, àquelas pessoas as que juramos tratá-las.
