MATCHING AND MAXIMIZING ON CONCURRENT VARIABLE-INTERVAL, VARIABLE-RATIO SCHEDULES
Creators: name: Ziriax, John Miles
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Prior work has shown that pigeons pecking on concurrent variable-interval, variable-ratio schedules: (1) match their behavior ratios to the schedules' reinforcer-frequency ratios; and (2) show a preference for a variable-interval schedule. Sine maximizing the reinforcement rate requires a variable-ratio preference, these results have been viewed as establishing the primacy of matching over maximizing in choice. In the present report, different behavior ratios were simulated on a computer as responses to concurrent variable-interval, variable-ratio schedules. No matter what preference was specified, matching obtained--a result suggesting that preference directed reinforcement frequencies to produce matching. This notion was tested experimentally with three pigeons exposed to concurrent variable-interval, variable-ratio schedules in which hopper durations were varied in some conditions in order to produce experimenter-specified preferences. Matching obtained between behavior ratios and reinforcer-frequency ratios at all preferences selected. Since matching seems procedurally dictated on these schedules, the data they produce cannot establish the primacy of matching over maximizing in choice.

THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN EARTH SCIENCE EDUCATORS' CONFIDENCE IN THEIR ABILITIES TO TEACH FIELD-BASED EARTH SCIENCE COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL OBJECTIVES AND THE PERCEIVED SOURCES OF THAT CONFIDENCE
Creators: name: Agnew, Jimmie Dell
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This study was conducted to determine what relationships exist between earth science educators' confidence in their abilities to teach field-based earth science cognitive-behavioral objectives and perceived sources of that confidence. Questionnaire items were selected, piloted, and a questionnaire devised and mailed to 320 earth science educators for completion. Responses were used to determine confidence levels for each earth science objective and mean-confidence levels for the sample population and each subgroup of respondents. Educators responding ranked teaching experiences as the greatest source of their confidence, followed by pre-service education and in-service education. The sample population expressed strong confidence in its ability to teach the field-based earth science cognitive-behavioral objectives included in the survey. Low confidence levels were found to exist for the sample population in areas concerning (1) aerial photography interpretation; (2) soil profiles, development, and types; (3) unconformities in sedimentary deposits; (4) formation of metamorphic rocks; and (5) regional and contact metamorphic rock zones. High confidence levels were found to exist for the sample population in areas concerning (1) topographic maps and profile sections, (2) physical properties of common economic minerals, (3) dip and strike, (4) recognizing and naming faults, and (5) classifying fractures. Present methods used in pre- and in-service education appear to be effective in those areas where respondents expressed high levels of confidence and less effective in those areas where respondents reported low levels of confidence in their abilities to teach field-based earth science. Despite the fact that 52.1 percent of the sample population had completed more than forty-five in-service semester hours, in-service education ranked behind teaching experience and pre-service education as a primary source of confidence for the sample population.

title: Die Phonetik der chinesischen Standardsprache im Fremdsprachenunterricht
Creators: name: Gstöttner, Ernestine
Year: 2019

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der chinesischen Phonetik und deren Vermittlung im Fremdsprachenunterricht auseinander. Ein besonderes Merkmal des Chinesischen ist, dass es sich um eine Tonsprache handelt, bei der Tonhöhenbewegungen auf lexikalischer Ebene eine bedeutungsunterscheidende Funktion aufweisen. Dies hat zur Folge, dass die chinesische Aussprache für viele Fremdsprachenlernende ein hohes Fehlerpotenzial birgt. Das Forschungsinteresse dieser Arbeit gilt der Verbesserung der Aussprachevermittlung im Chinesisch-Fremdsprachenunterricht. Dazu wurde eine qualitative Studie mit Sinologiestudierenden im Sprachlabor der Universität Wien durchgeführt. Ein Aussprachetraining, dessen Lehrmethode auf den Fremdsprachendidaktiker Friedhelm Denninghaus zurückgeht, dient den Studierenden als Basis für eine anschließende Gruppendiskussion. Ziel dieser Studie ist festzustellen, inwiefern das Aussprachetraining auf die Lernbedürfnisse der Studierenden eingeht und welche didaktischen Implikationen sich daraus herleiten lassen. Das Ergebnis zeigt, dass die Lehrmethode nach Denninghaus die wesentlichen Lernbedürfnisse der Studierenden berücksichtigt, dazu zählen: individuelles Feedback, authentische Ausspracheübungen in Form von Sinneinheiten und Sätzen, ein natürliches Sprechtempo, verschiedene Sprachmodelle und die Möglichkeit, Ausspracheübungen außerhalb des Unterrichts zu wiederholen.

GanESS, a new opportunity for CEνNS
Creators: name: Larizgoitia, Leire
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The recent detection of the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEνNS) opens the possibility to use neutrinos to explore physics beyond standard model with small size detectors. However, the CEνNS process generates signals at the few keV level, requiring of very sensitive detecting technologies for its detection. The European Spallation Source (ESS) has been identified as an optimal source of low energy neutrinos offering an opportunity for a definitive exploration of all phenomenological applications of CEνNS. In this project, we propose to apply the high pressure gas Time Projection Chamber (TPC) technology to the detection of the CEνNS process at the ESS. This will require the development of very low-energy detectors and the improvement of the current knowledge of the quenching factor for nuclear recoils in gas at keV energies. The major goal of this project is to build a compact noble gaseous detector (~20 kg) compatible with different nuclei such as xenon, argon or krypton in the same set-up with minimal increase in the cost and operate it at the ESS. Such detector will provide more than 7,000 CEνNS events per year, overtaking the sensitivities of much larger detectors in current spallations sources.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SEX-ROLE IDENTITY AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT IN BLACK HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Creators: name: Bridges, Arthur Carl
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: A critical factor in the current and future status of blacks in America is the level of educational attainment of the group. In spite of various tutorial techniques and counseling services available to the black high school student, academic achievement remains a major concern. There is a critical need to identify specific variables that might contribute to higher academic achievement among this group. The purpose of this study was to determine if the sex-role identity of black high school students is significantly related to their academic achievement. Four hypotheses were established for the study. They are: (1) Androgynous students have significantly higher quantitative and verbal achievement scores than masculine, feminine or undifferentiated students. (2) Masculine students have significantly higher quantitative achievement scores than feminine or undifferentiated students. (3) Feminine students have significantly higher verbal achievement scores than masculine or undifferentiated students. (4) Undifferentiated students have significantly lower quantitative and verbal achievement scores than androgynous, masculine or feminine students. The study population was selected from students that attended Spingarn S.T.A.Y. School, an alternative high school in the District of Columbia. Two hundred seventy-six students participated, 149 males and 127 females. The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) was used to characterize students as either androgynous, masculine, feminine or undifferentiated. Academic achievement was assessed by the School and College Ability Tests (SCAT) Series III, which measures basic verbal and quantitative skills grades 3-12. A statistical analysis of the data fully supported only hypothesis two (2), that masculine students have significantly higher quantitative achievement scores than feminine and undifferentiated students. For hypothesis four (4), analyses revealed that the average achievement scores for undifferentiated students were significantly lower than those of masculine and feminine students. However, there was no significant difference in scores of androgynous students and undifferentiated students. Since androgynous students in this group did not score significantly higher on achievement tests than masculine, feminine or undifferentiated students, we may conclude that there is no apparent academic basis for promoting androgyny in black youth.

Year: 2019

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt die Frühgeschichte der kroatischen Sprachstandardisierung. In dieser waren es vor allem Anhänger des jesuitischen Ordens die sich mit frühen Wörterbüchern und Grammatiken des Kroatischen hervortun. Standardisierung ist an dieser Stelle als Prozess zu begreifen und bezeichnet statt einer offiziellen Rechtschreibreform die komplexen Vorgänge die den Weg hin zu einer Standardsprache ebnen. Die Arbeit gliedert sich in zwei Teile. Im ersten Teil werden Kultur- und Sprachgeschichte Kroatiens, wie auch die religiösen Umstände zu Zeiten der Gegenreformation behandelt. Neben der Bedeutung der Renaissance für die kroatische Volkssprache, wird auf die Rolle der Jesuiten in der Erstellung früher Grammatiken und Wörterbücher eingegangen. Die geographischen, wie dialektalen Umstände werden teils mit Hilfe von Karten dargelegt. Im zweiten Teil stehen einzelne Arbeiten im Vordergrund. Ausgewählt wurden hierfür Bartol Kašićs Institutiones linguae illyricae, Jakov Mikaljas Blago jezika slovinskoga, Juraj Habdelićs Dictionar, Ardelio Della Bellas Dizionario Italiano–Latino–Illirico und Andrija Jambrešićs Lexicon Latinum. Besonderes Augenmerk wird auf die Frage nach der gewählten Mundart und die Herangehensweise und Zielgruppe des Autors gelegt. Abschließend wird auf Merkmale jesuitischer Arbeiten und die Besonderheiten der kroatischen Sprachgeschichte eingegangen.
Probing light mediators through detection of coherent elastic neutrino nucleus scattering at COHERENT
Creators: name: Yiyu Zhang
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process (CEνNS) is a powerful probe of the possible new neutral boson in the theory beyond the standard model, which is a possible explanation of the muon (g−2)μ anomaly. CEνNS was first observed in 2017 at the COHERENT experiment by the cesium-iodide (CsI) detector and later in 2020 at the argon (Ar) detector. Recently, the new result of the CsI detector is also updated in 2021.
 In this poster, we present the constraints on the parameters of several light boson mediator models obtained from the combined analysis of the latest data of the COHERENT CEνNS experiment. We consider a variety of vector boson mediator models and also a model with a new light scalar boson mediator. We compare these constraints with the limits obtained in other experiments, and with the values that can explain the muon (g−2)μ anomaly in the models where the muon couples to the new boson mediator.

description: The onset of the energy crisis since 1973 created economic problems throughout the United States. Farmers rely heavily on energy for production purposes. In particular, farmers in the arid western states rely on natural gas for irrigation, and farmers throughout the country rely on natural gas for crop drying. The experience of natural gas shortages and price increases became widespread throughout the economy after 1973. This study was undertaken to explore the impacts of natural gas price increases and supply constraints on agricultural production in order to indicate the types of adjustments farmers would need to make, and to provide state and federal policymakers with an awareness of the crop, state and regional dependence on natural gas for farm production. A qualitative analysis involving collection of information, summarization and analysis of current operational use of natural gas on farms, and calculation of farm dependence on natural gas, by crop, state and region was undertaken. An econometric analysis involving estimation of consumption functions for natural gas used for irrigation and crop drying was also undertaken. The econometric analysis conducted in this study was less successful than the qualitative analysis, most probably a result of data constraints leading to a very small sample size. The qualitative analysis showed that farmers in the Southern Plains region are most dependent on natural gas for irrigation, followed by farmers in the Northern Plains. Production of rice, cotton and grain sorghum is most dependent on natural gas for irrigation. Dependence on natural gas for crop drying is most marked in the Delta States and Northern Plains regions. Rice, peanuts and grain sorghum depend most heavily among crops on natural gas for drying. The variables which seem to have the greatest impact on the consumption of natural gas for irrigation based on the econometric estimation include the quality of land (represented by its market value), the price of fertilizer, and the price of diesel fuel (a substitute). The estimated crop drying equations did not provide useful results. Continued and improved data collection on farm use of natural gas is a necessary first step to continued research on this topic.
title: Ausgewählte Phänomene des Dialekts in Markt Allhau

description: Die vorliegende Masterarbeit ist der Dialektologie als Disziplin der Linguistik zuzuordnen und beschäftigt sich einerseits mit altersbedingten Sprachdifferenzen im Dialektgebrauch dreier unterschiedlicher Generationen auf phonologischer, morphologischer und lexikalischer Ebene und andererseits mit soziolinguistischer Spracheinstellung der insgesamt 15 Gewährspersonen zu Haltung und Umgang zum bzw. mit dem Dialekt in Markt Allhau, einer südburgenländischen Marktgemeinde. Die empirische Datenerhebung erfolgte in eben dieser Gemeinde, der alle Gewährspersonen entstammen und in welcher die jeweils fünf Informantinnen und Informanten aus der jüngeren, mittleren und älteren Generation auch aktuell leben. Die Ergebnisse der dialektalen Spracherhebung machten einen sich im Gang befindlichen Dialektwandel in Markt Allhau deutlich, denn es konnten dialektale Sprachdifferenzen der einzelnen Generationen zueinander in Beziehung gesetzt und analysiert werden, die schließlich zeigten, dass vor allem in der jüngeren Generation mitunter häufige Tendenzen bestehen, auf Variationen und Sprechweisen auszuweichen, die der Standardsprache näher stehen. Die Erhebung zur subjektiven Spracheinstellung ergab in allen drei Generationen eine positive Neigung zum Dialekt als Sprechweise, wenngleich auch deutlich wurde, dass auch standardsprachliche Varietäten als wichtig empfunden werden.

On the other hand, the purpose of this paper is to analyse the socio-linguistic language attitude of the fifteen participants regarding this dialect in a village in southern Burgenland, Austria. The empiric data collection occurred in Markt Allhau. All the participants have in common that each individual was born in this village and also lives there today. The results of the analysis show that there is an ongoing change of language structures within this dialect. Mainly the participants from the younger generation show tendencies to adjust their dialectic expressions towards the common language standards of German. The survey revealed that the language attitude concerning the dialect has a positive connotation throughout the whole age range of the participants.

description: The onset of the energy crisis since 1973 created economic problems throughout the United States. Farmers rely heavily on energy for production purposes. In particular, farmers in the arid western states rely on natural gas for irrigation, and farmers throughout the country rely on natural gas for crop drying. The experience of natural gas shortages and price increases became widespread throughout the economy after 1973. This study was undertaken to explore the impacts of natural gas price increases and supply constraints on agricultural production in order to indicate the types of adjustments farmers would need to make, and to provide state and federal policymakers with an awareness of the crop, state and regional dependence on natural gas for farm production. A qualitative analysis involving collection of information, summarization and analysis of current operational use of natural gas on farms, and calculation of farm dependence on natural gas, by crop, state and region was undertaken. An econometric analysis involving estimation of consumption functions for natural gas used for irrigation and crop drying was also undertaken. The econometric analysis conducted in this study was less successful than the qualitative analysis, most probably a result of data constraints leading to a very small sample size. The qualitative analysis showed that farmers in the Southern Plains region are most dependent on natural gas for irrigation, followed by farmers in the Northern Plains. Production of rice, cotton and grain sorghum is most dependent on natural gas for irrigation. Dependence on natural gas for crop drying is most marked in the Delta States and Northern Plains regions. Rice, peanuts and grain sorghum depend most heavily among crops on natural gas for drying. The variables which seem to have the greatest impact on the consumption of natural gas for irrigation based on the econometric estimation include the quality of land (represented by its market value), the price of fertilizer, and the price of diesel fuel (a substitute). The estimated crop drying equations did not provide useful results. Continued and improved data collection on farm use of natural gas is a necessary first step to continued research on this topic.

description: People with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) experience considerable difficulties communicating and develop idiosyncratic repertoires of communication that are understood and interpreted only by those closest to them. It is difficult to access their stories or to find out how they are living their lives via orthodox life story research practices and consequently their experiences remain hidden from history. This practice-led research was driven by the need to address a lack of methodological tools that enable the inclusion of people with PMLD as participants in life story work. The research sought to contribute to:

1. An understanding of the barriers, challenges and benefits of doing participatory life story work with people with PMLD.
2. The development of a range of methods that invite people with PMLD to participate in life story work, with specific, but not exclusive reference to rich media and digital tools.
3. A broader understanding of the every day social and cultural lives of three adults with PMLD.

Researching alongside three adults with PMLD and their circles of support for an extended period of time using a qualitative mix of life history and ethnographic methods - including the shared examination of personal archive materials, participation in every day activities and interviews with close family and friends - revealed opportunities for them to engage in their pasts. Barriers of access and communication were identified and addressed. The deconstruction of narrative norms together with framing participatory life story work within a cultural, as opposed to an individual, context invited a reinterpretation of what it means to participate in life story work. Thematic analysis of the rich body of material generated by the project identified that opportunities to participate in life story work were dependent on particular qualities of people, time and environment. Participation in life story work was found to be beneficial to the participants with PMLD because it challenged perceptions, demonstrated their value as people living socially and culturally rich lives, provided a platform for shared remembering and was a catalyst for new narratives. The findings indicate possibilities for including people with PMLD as participants in other research areas including mental health and wellbeing.

description: The Problem. This research attempted to appraise the mathematical preparation of elementary and secondary teachers of mathematics employed at the residential and day schools for the deaf in the United States, and to assess their mathematics in-service training needs and preferences. The Procedure. A forty-item questionnaire was mailed to 48 residential and 17 day schools for the deaf nationwide. The primary data were obtained from responses to questionnaire items made by a sample of 88 elementary and 44 secondary teachers of mathematics at selected schools. In the analysis of data, the statistical methods used here included t-tests, frequency and percentage distributions, and point and interval estimates. The Conclusions. The analysis of data led to the following conclusions: (1) The number of mathematics content courses taken by the teachers is significantly less than the minimum number as recommended by the Committee on Undergraduate Program in Mathematics (CUPM), and also significantly less than those taken by the public school teachers. (2) The number of mathematics methods courses taken by the teachers is about the same as those taken by the public school teachers. (3) The teachers have infrequently participated in a mathematics in-service program. (4) The teachers want to participate in an in-service program in mathematics. (5) For mathematics in-service training, the teachers prefer applications of mathematics in real-life situations, or any practical mathematics topic specific enough for direct classroom use. Furthermore, the teachers do not want a general, theoretical, or abstract mathematics kind of topic not relevant to their teaching. (6) The teachers consider it important that they be given the opportunity to select topics for a mathematics in-service program they are participating in. Among the hearing-impaired teachers, the service of a paid-for, qualified or certified interpreter is considered a very important incentive for participation. (7) While the schools do encourage and support professional growth of teachers, the schools have not encouraged the teachers to participate in an in-service program in mathematics nor have the schools encouraged the teachers to grow professionally in mathematics. (8) Although the teachers are adequately trained to teach the deaf, and feel confident about the mathematics they are teaching, they not only may fail to keep up with the current developments in mathematics education, but may be inadequately prepared to teach mathematics as well.
title: Exploring the relationship between Shame Memories, Self-Concept and Wellbeing

description: Background: High levels of shame are considered a transdiagnostic experience, and have been associated with early shame memories that contain traumatic features and become central to one’s self-concept. Compassion Focused Therapy aims to reduce shame via compassionate exercises. Difficulties, however, can be experienced when these are attempted, and identifying fears around developing compassion might not be helpful for all individuals. Consequently, there is a clinical need to consider alternative constructs. Structural aspects of self-concept are considered to be significant in the experience of psychological distress and wellbeing, but have been largely overlooked in clinical psychology, and have yet to be considered in the experience of shame. 
Aim: To explore the relationships between shame memories containing traumatic and centrality features, current experiences of shame, a structural component of self-concept in the form of self-concept clarity, and psychological distress and wellbeing. 
Method: Participants (n = 220), ranging from 18-63 years (M = 32.03, SD = 10.82) completed questionnaires online pertaining to the characteristics of a shame memory they recalled, current experiences of external and internal shame, self- concept clarity, self-esteem, psychological distress, and wellbeing. One hundred and five participants (46.47%) 

had received a range of psychiatric diagnoses, and a further thirty-two (14.54%) experienced self-reported psychological distress. 
Results: Shame memories containing traumatic and centrality features were significantly associated with shame and distress. Shame memories containing traumatic features was a significant predictor of psychological distress and wellbeing. Participants who recalled a shame memory involving an attachment figure reported significantly more traumatic and centrality features, higher external and internal shame, and lower self-esteem and wellbeing, compared to those who recalled a shame memory involving a non-attachment figure. Significant and moderate associations were found between self-concept clarity, shame memories, and shame. Self-concept clarity, however, was not a significant predictor of psychological distress and wellbeing, whilst self-esteem was. 
Conclusions: The findings suggested that self-esteem could be more useful to consider than self-concept clarity in the experience of shame. However, this could have been influenced by the measures used. A number of tentative clinical implications can be drawn from the study including the importance of assessing the key details of shame memories (e.g., who the individual felt shamed by), and actively attending to wellbeing and distress within assessments and interventions for high levels of shame. The importance of preventative interventions in reducing shaming experiences within public health initiatives and educational settings was also demonstrated.
