MEDINDO ASSUNTOS SOCIALMENTE SENSÍVEIS: O USO DO EXPERIMENTO DE LISTA E POLÍTICAS DE AÇÃO AFIRMATIVA
Authors: Vidigal Robert Lee Borges de Paula 
Published: August 2015

ResumoA opinião pública sobre as ações afirmativas não é consensual, especialmente entre os brancos. Em um desenho experimental de pesquisa, as cotas raciais são estudadas na Universidade de Brasília (UnB) e na Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG). A técnica utilizada é conhecida como experimento de lista, a qual consiste essencialmente de um experimento embutido em um survey convencional. O delineamento experimental garante a privacidade necessária para os respondentes se sentirem livres para darem respostas honestas, evitando o efeito chamado de desejabilidade social. Os resultados mostram que a teoria do autointeresse não tem efeitos sobre as atitudes raciais, e o efeito de desejabilidade social é muito forte entre os estudantes brancos. Palavras-chave: Experimentos; Experimento de lista; Opinião Pública; Metodologia de Pesquisa.

Here in an experimental design the racial quotas are studied at the University of Brasilia (UnB) and University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). The technique employed is known as the list-experiment, which consists essentially of an experiment embedded in a conventional survey. The experimental design ensures privacy for respondents to feel free to give honest answers, avoiding the social desirability effect. The results show that the self-interest theory has no effects on the racial attitudes, and the social desirability effect is very strong among the white students.Keywords: Experiments; List-experiment; Public Opinion; Research Methodology.
EM BUSCA DO PARTIDARISMO: UM ESTUDO SOBRE O HGPE PARA DEPUTADO FEDERAL NAS ELEIÇÕES DE 2010
Authors: Da Cunha Ferreira Geison 
Published: August 2015

O objetivo central do artigo é analisar o papel dos partidos políticos no Horário Gratuito de Propaganda Eleitoral (HGPE) para a Câmara dos Deputados (CD), no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, quinto maior colégio eleitoral do Brasil, na eleição de 2010. Nossa análise empírica tem como ponto de partida os estudos de Schmitt et al. (1999), Albuquerque et al. (2008) e Dias (2009). O diagnóstico baseia-se, assim, na construção da imagem partidária durante a campanha eleitoral pela televisão e na distribuição do tempo de TV pelos partidos entre os candidatos. O método utilizado na pesquisa foi o quantitativo, com base na propaganda eleitoral de 11 (onze) partidos, todos com representação na CD durante a legislatura de 2007 a 2011. Os resultados finais indicam a forte presença de referências partidárias nas campanhas de PT e PTB e a distribuição homogênea do tempo de televisão na maioria dos partidos, com exceção de partidos menores como PSB, PCdoB e PSOL.
PT X PSDB: A ATUALIZAÇÃO DO EMBATE POLÍTICO NA ELEIÇÃO PRESIDENCIAL DE 2014
Authors: Souza Bruno Mello , Martins Joyce Miranda Leão 
Published: August 2015

Partido da Social Democracia Brasileira (PSDB) e Partido dos Trabalhadores polarizam a disputa presidencial há 20 anos (PT). Entretanto, verifica-se uma tendência progressiva de crescimento de candidaturas de terceira via. Utilizando dados de surveys dos Estudos Eleitorais Brasileiros (ESEB), este trabalho examina como os sujeitos que não têm votado nas candidaturas do PT e do PSDB se posicionam sobre a política brasileira, e observa o comportamento político desses dois partidos, dentro das propagandas partidárias de 2014. Busca-se responder: quais são as opiniões demonstradas, entre 2002 e 2010, pelos eleitores das candidaturas de terceira via nas eleições nacionais? Como a disputa política, no espaço do horário eleitoral, contribuiu para a permanência da polarização PT x PSDB na eleição presidencial de 2014? Os eleitores de terceira via apresentaram, ainda que com queda em 2006, uma elevação da satisfação com a democracia, e da identificação e satisfação com partidos; maior rejeição ao PSDB do que ao PT. Em 2014, os partidos conseguiram atualizar o embate entre eles, construindo a ideia de que Marina podia ser relacionada a ambos e que a mudança simbolizada por ela era insegura.
Inferentialist Pragmatism and Dworkin’s ‘Law as Integrity’
Authors: Decat Thiago Lopes 
Published: August 2015

Inferentialist Pragmatism and Dworkin’s ‘Law as Integrity’
The paper aims at justifying an interpretation of Dworkin’s theory of Law as Integrity that brings it closer to philosophical pragmatism despite his rejection of legal pragmatism. In order to achieve this aim, this work employs a classification of philosophical commitments that define pragmatism in a broad and in a narrow sense and shows that legal pragmatism follows the main thinkers of pragmatism in the narrow sense in committing to instrumentalism. The attribution of a pragmatist character to Dworkin’s theory of law rests on the idea that the adoption of a commitment to instrumentalism is not implicated by its adoption of other pragmatist commitments.
Pragmatism and Dynamics: Does Pragmatist Adjustment Go All the Way Down?
Authors: de Been Wouter 
Published: August 2015

Pragmatism and Dynamics: Does Pragmatist Adjustment Go All the Way Down?
Pragmatism has become an established academic topic focused on an accepted canon of works and a number of seminal authors. There is something ironic about this fixation of the Pragmatist tradition. An anticipation of transience and embrace of adaptability runs through many of the classic works of Pragmatism. Nevertheless, there seems to be a tendency to fixate Pragmatism and freeze it in its classic iterations, especially with respect to its philosophy of scientific inquiry. The article seeks to retrieve the dynamics and adaptability the classical Pragmatists built into their notion of scientific inquiry. It seeks to illustrate the need for such flexibility with recent developments in the field of economics. When the financial crisis struck in 2007-2008, this involved more than the insolvency of a number of large banks. The crisis, at the very least, also involved the bankruptcy of a dominant economic model. It raised questions about the rationality of markets and the widespread faith in soft-touch regulation. It cast doubt on decades of neo-classical economic dogma that counseled small government, privatisation, and free markets. Neo-classical economics did not float free from other concerns. It informed notions about the role of the state, the limits of public policy, and the scope of democratic decision-making. Indeed, faith in rational, self-correcting markets affected debates in disparate disciplines like law, political science, philosophy, ethics, and history in many non-trivial ways. Hence, the financial crisis is also a crisis of scientific research.
Test cesty: Recenze metody

Test cesty je z mého pohledu při základním klinickém neuropsychologickém vyšetření velmi dobře použitelný. A to především pro diagnostiku přítomnosti nebo nepřítomnosti patologie v rámci celkového neurologického fungování. Na základě předložených výsledků nedoporučuji metodu používat pro konkrétnější diagnostiku typu poruchy. Na metodu však lze navázat další vyšetření, která konkrétnější diagnostiku zajistí. Ostatně sama metoda je často součástí komplexnější baterie vyšetření. I přes poměrně dobré hodnoty reliability, senzitivity i specificity, které splňují nároky na takovéto klinické vyšetření, je nutné si být vědom případné chyby, a výsledný skór posoudit i na základě dalších vyšetření a vlastního pozorování.
Discourses of Race & Racism Within Environmental Justice Studies: An Eco-racial Intervention
Authors: Dicochea Perlita R. 
Published: August 2015

<p>The social force of racism in relation to natural resources plays a prominent role in the development of environmental justice (EJ) studies within the United States. I contend that the dominant paradigm of environmental racism (ER) may encourage superficial applications of race and racism and colorblind approaches to EJ. I argue that race and racism are at times essentialized, which has in part to do with essentialized notions of the environment. The goal of this eco-racial intervention is to encourage more explicit engagement with the dynamic ways that society creates meaning around and makes use of race and natural resources in relation to each other, processes that may include and operate beyond conventional and critical approaches to ER. Spirited by critical ER and racial formation theory, I propose the construct ‘eco-racial justice project’ as part of an alternative framework for evaluating racialization within efforts to achieve environmental justice.</p>
Dehydrogenative Carbon–Carbon Bond Formation Using Alkynyloxy Moieties as Hydrogen‐Accepting Directing Groups
Authors: Minami Yasunori , Kodama Tatsuro , Hiyama Tamejiro 
Published: August 2015

AbstractIn the presence of a catalyst system consisting of Pd(OAc)2, PCy3, and Zn(OAc)2, the reaction of alkynyl aryl ethers with bicycloalkenes, α,ß‐unsaturated esters, or heteroarenes results in the site‐selective cleavage of two CH bonds followed by the formation of CC bonds. In all cases, the alkynyloxy group acts as a directing group for the activation of an ortho CH bond and as a hydrogen acceptor, thus rendering the use of additives such as an oxidant or base unnecessary.
Adaptive Control of A Servo System Based on Multiple Models
Authors: Gan Ming‐Gang , Zhang Meng , Ma Hui‐Xia , Chen Jie 
Published: August 2015

AbstractThis paper presents an alternative technology for adaptive control of a DC motor servo system based on multiple models. A dynamic mechanical model of the controlled plant is built, where the unmeasurable variables can be estimated by a filter observer. According to the mechanical model, an adaptive controller is designed. Specific attention is given to the jumping parameters in the control process, which motivate the proposition of multiple models, including fixed models, identified model, and adaptive model, to approximate the global dynamic characteristics of the plant model. A model switching rule is proposed to select the optimal model matching the plant, and the identified and adaptive models are reset when switching occurs, minimizing the effect caused by jumping parameters. Simulation results demonstrate that the introduced scheme is superior to the conventional adaptive control in that it yields a significant improvement of transient stability and response speed as well as steady accuracy, guaranteeing better low‐speed performance.

BACKGROUNDThe forkhead box F2 gene (FOXF2) located in chromosome 6p25.3 has been shown to play a crucial role in palatal development in mouse and rat models. To date, no evidence of linkage or association has been reported for this gene in humans with oral clefts.METHODSAllelic transmission disequilibrium tests were used to robustly assess evidence of linkage and association with nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate for nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in and around FOXF2 in both Asian and European trios using PLINK.RESULTSStatistically significant evidence of linkage and association was shown for two SNPs (rs1711968 and rs732835) in 216 Asian trios where the empiric P values with permutation tests were 0.0016 and 0.005, respectively. The corresponding estimated odds ratios for carrying the minor allele at these SNPs were 2.05 (95% confidence interval = 1.41, 2.98) and 1.77 (95% confidence interval = 1.26, 2.49), respectively.CONCLUSIONOur results provided statistical evidence of linkage and association between FOXF2 and nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate.

Synthesis of cubic ZnS microspheres exhibiting broad visible emission for bioimaging applications
Authors: Sajan P. , Jayasree R. S. , Agouram S. , Junaid Bushiri M. 
Published: August 2015

AbstractBiocompatible ZnS microspheres with an average diameter of 3.85 µm were grown by solvo‐hydrothermal (S‐H) method using water–acetonitrile–ethylenediamine (EDA) solution combination. ZnS microspheres were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transform (FT)‐Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. The broad photoluminescence (PL) emissions from 380–580 nm that were seen from the ZnS microspheres attributed to the increase in carrier concentration, as understood from the observed intense Raman band at 257 cm–1. Cytotoxicity and haemocompatibility investigations of these ZnS microspheres revealed its biocompatibility. ZnS microspheres, along with biological cell lines, were giving visible light emission and could be used for bioimaging applications. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Investigation of UV‐emitting Gd3+‐doped LiCaBO3 phosphor
Authors: Tamboli Sumedha , Rajeswari B. , Dhoble S. J. 
Published: August 2015

AbstractIncorporating the Gd3+ rare earth ion in the LiCaBO3 host lattice resulted in narrow‐band UV‐B emission peaking at 315 nm, with excitation at 274 nm. The LiCaBO3:Gd3+ phosphor was synthesized via the solid‐state diffusion method. The structural, morphological and luminescence properties of this phosphor were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterization of the as‐prepared phosphors is also reported here. XRD studies confirmed the crystal formation and phase purity of the prepared phosphors. A series of different dopant concentrations was synthesized and the concentration‐quenching effect was studied. Critical energy transfer distance between activator ions was determined and the mechanism governing the concentration quenching is also reported in this paper.

Claire K. Schultz, 1924–2015
Authors: Williams Robert V. 
Published: August 2015

EDITOR'S SUMMARYA groundbreaker and important link between library science and computer‐based information science, Claire Kelly Schultz passed away in May 2015. Though Schultz's original aim to become a doctor was derailed, her first job as a biology lab assistant and librarian launched her on a career path that ultimately provided important service to medicine, pharmacology and information science. With training in library studies, chemistry and medicine, Schultz became the librarian at the future Merck, Sharp and Dohme Research Labs and became aware of the technical challenges of literature retrieval in the field. She consulted with others at the forefront of indexing and retrieval systems to develop a successful card sorting method using Boolean logic. This success led to consulting positions and publications on information retrieval, vocabulary control, thesaurus construction and indexing. Schultz strongly advocated applying documentation practices to the developing field and to the history of the American Documentation Institute (ADI), forerunner of the Association for Information Science and Technology, and she created the first thesaurus of information science. Active in several professional societies, Schultz became the ADI's first woman president and earned its 1980 Award of Merit.
Developing Data Literacy Programs: Working with Faculty, Graduate Students and Undergraduates
Authors: Carlson Jake , Nelson Megan Sapp , Johnston Lisa R. , Koshoffer Amy 
Published: August 2015

EDITOR'S SUMMARYBuilding data information literacy among faculty, graduate students and undergrads was the focus of a 2015 RDAP Summit panel, with panelists describing programs at different institutions geared to each of these target groups. The Data Information Literacy project identified 12 key competencies for graduate students and how librarians could help build those skills. The Data Management Strategies Self‐Assessment encourages junior faculty members to objectively consider their research data management practices and to prioritize issues and tasks. Identifying and addressing the data information literacy competencies of undergraduate students is challenging, with their widely diverse backgrounds and needs. Varied creative approaches, such as embedding lessons within a class, presenting workshops and developing partnerships and research mentorships, have been successful. Data Information Literacy project teams have developed educational programs, compared and integrated their experiences and offer guidelines, available online, for developing digital literacy programs at other institutions.
Current Issues and Approaches to Curating Student Research Data
Authors: Creamer Andrew 
Published: August 2015

EDITOR'S SUMMARYThe 2015 RDAP Summit hosted a panel discussion to address issues and challenges of curating students’ research data and digital scholarship, bringing together librarians dealing with various aspects of digital curation and management. Few institutions have a policy on handling student research data, theses and dissertations. Obstacles include insufficient know‐how, time, incentive and resources. Without guidance, data files vary widely in format and quality. Yet, as one panelist pointed out, without definitive standards, data librarians must contend with a messy reality and should be reasonable in their expectations for students. Planning for improvements must start by engaging students and advisors throughout the process of data creation. Panelists agreed on the need to further explore topics such as intellectual property, ownership and security, data quality, staff skill building and outreach to stakeholders.
BYOPanel – The On‐the‐Spot Assembled Panel on Responses to the OSTP Memo Responses
Authors: Janz Margaret 
Published: August 2015

EDITOR'S SUMMARYA hastily arranged session was convened at the 2015 RDAP Summit in response to the 2013 memo from the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) on research data policy and management. On the first day of the conference, planners solicited input on ways attendees are educating their communities on OSTP data policy requirements, resources developed and emerging issues and challenges in data management. Attendees voted to learn more about the University of Iowa's creation of a Research Data Interest Group, the National Institute of Standards and Technology's taxonomy of research data and archiving requirements and James Madison University's efforts to inform stakeholders on the OSTP mandate. At a short session the next morning, speakers from these institutions expanded on their first brief responses, sparking further questions and plans to carry on the conversation through social media and future meetings.
Research Data Services at the University of Colorado Boulder

Published: August 2015

EDITOR'S SUMMARYThe University of Colorado Boulder's Research Data Services (RDS) is a joint activity of the University Libraries and the Office of Information Technology. Started in 2011 to meet the National Science Foundation's mandate for data management plans with all grant submissions, RDS grew from helping to write the plans to indicating resources to educating researchers on their use and providing individual consultations and reviews. RDS staff also aid researchers with metadata documentation, helping to develop file documentation and later migrating to final formats. Researchers often contact RDS about long‐term data storage or for assistance with data dissemination and complying with the requirements of data repositories, funding agencies or scholarly journals. Urging researchers to learn about data management, using a variety of communication channels and venues, is key. Incorporating a data management plan requirement to in‐house grants and creating a data management plan competition with financial award have been most successful at promoting the RDS.
Impact of comorbidities and gender on the use of coronary interventions in patients with high‐risk non‐ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome

Published: August 2015

ObjectivesTo determine the impact of gender and comorbidity on use of coronary interventions in patients diagnosed with high‐risk non‐ST‐segment acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS).BackgroundGuidelines recommend the use of coronary angiography for all patients diagnosed with NSTEACS with high‐risk features, except in the presence of severe comorbidities. However, little is understood about the relationship between gender, comorbidity, and the use of coronary interventions.MethodsRetrospective analyses of the Victorian Admitted Episodes Data Set (VAED) including all patients diagnosed with NSTEACS with high‐risk features on their first admission for ACS between June 2007 and July 2009. Hierarchical logistic regression models and correspondence analyses were used to understand the relationship between gender, comorbidities, and the use of coronary interventions.ResultsOut of 16,771 NSTEACS patients with high‐risk features, 6,338 (38%) were female. Females were older than males (aged ≥75: 62% vs 39%, p < 0.001) and more likely to have multiple comorbidities (≥2: 66% vs 59%, p < 0.001). After adjusting for potential confounders, females were more likely to receive no coronary intervention than males with a similar number of comorbid conditions (no comorbidities: OR 1.62, 95% CI 1.28–2.05; 1 comorbidity: OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.44–1.93; 2 comorbidities: OR 1.93, 95% CI 1.66–2.23; ≥3 comorbidities: OR 1.42, 95% CI 1.27–1.60).ConclusionsLower rates of coronary intervention in females persisted after adjusting for number of comorbidities which suggests that gender may bias decisions regarding referral for coronary intervention in high‐risk NSTEACS independent of other factors. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
