TEAM-LEVEL HUMAN RESOURCE ATTRIBUTIONS AND PERFORMANCE
Creators: name: Huang, yufang
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022

description: Drawing on attribution theory, this study explores the relationship between team-level human resource attributions (HRAs) and team performance, and explains how transformational leadership moderates this relationship. The data were collected from leaders and subordinates across 77 work teams, for a total of 708 participants employed in seven manufacturing and service organizations in China. The study finds that the relationship between commitment-focused team-level HRAs and team performance is mediated by team engagement, and that transformational leadership significantly strengthens the positive relationship between these variables. However, these moderating and moderated mediation relationships are not evident between control-focused team-level HRAs and team performance. The study is among the first to explore team-level HRAs and contributes to the scholarly debates on the role of attributions in explaining the so-called “black box” between HRM and performance.
Multivariate Functional Principal Component Analysis for Data Observed on Different (Dimensional) Domains

Year: 2015

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Existing approaches for multivariate functional principal component analysis are restricted to data on the same one-dimensional interval. The presented approach focuses on multivariate functional data on different domains that may differ in dimension, e.g. functions and images. The theoretical basis for multivariate functional principal component analysis is given in terms of a Karhunen-Loève Theorem. For the practically relevant case of a finite Karhunen-Loève representation, a relationship between univariate and multivariate functional principal component analysis is established. This offers an estimation strategy to calculate multivariate functional principal components and scores based on their univariate counterparts. For the resulting estimators, asymptotic results are derived. The approach can be extended to finite univariate expansions in general, not necessarily orthonormal bases. It is also applicable for sparse functional data or data with measurement error. A flexible R-implementation is available on CRAN. The new method is shown to be competitive to existing approaches for data observed on a common one-dimensional domain. The motivating application is a neuroimaging study, where the goal is to explore how longitudinal trajectories of a neuropsychological test score covary with FDG-PET brain scans at baseline. Supplementary material, including detailed proofs, additional simulation results and software is available online.

Year: 2014

description: This thesis examines the construction of the activist identity at the Moral Monday
movements that occurred over the summer of 2013 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Since the
beginning of the Moral Monday movement, over 900 individuals have been arrested in protest of
the new legislation that they believe to be “immoral” and detrimental to North Carolina. The
Moral Monday movement was able to grow dramatically throughout the summer due to the
structuring of the activist identity, that accessibly allows frustrated citizens a space in that they
can be transformed into activists. Through the analysis of field notes and forty-four images of
poster signs, this thesis analyzes both the process of becoming a Moral Monday activist, as well
as the influence of the Moral Monday protesters in shaping the movement. It is crucial to analyze
the foundational elements of this movement to gain a better sense of where this movement is
headed.

description: Strategic leadership and knowledge transfer are a vital part of multinational companies. Although there is research on leadership and knowledge, few research studies comprehensively study the relationship of transformational, transactional, and passive/avoidance leadership with the transfer of tacit and explicit knowledge in the context of multinational companies. To test the hypothesis of the incidence of strategic leadership on knowledge transfer, there were surveys answered by forty managers of medium and high level and nine interviews answered by expatriate managers working in multinational companies located in the Republic of Panama. The results show that there is a significant incidence of strategic leadership on the transfer of knowledge. Finally, the study provides a model and three axioms for understanding the relationship of strategic leadership and knowledge transfer in the context of multinational companies.

Model selection and structure specification in ultra-high dimensional generalised semi-varying coefficient models

Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)

description: In this paper, we study the model selection and structure specification for the generalised semi-varying coefficient models (GSVCMs), where the number of potential covariates is allowed to be larger than the sample size. We first propose a penalised likelihood method with the LASSO penalty function to obtain the preliminary estimates of the functional coefficients. Then, using the quadratic approximation for the local log-likelihood function and the adaptive group LASSO penalty (or the local linear approximation of the group SCAD penalty) with the help of the preliminary estimation of the functional coefficients, we introduce a novel penalised weighted least squares procedure to select the significant covariates and identify the constant coefficients among the coefficients of the selected covariates, which could thus specify the semiparametric modelling structure. The developed model selection and structure specification approach not only inherits many nice statistical properties from the local maximum likelihood estimation and nonconcave penalised likelihood method, but also computationally attractive thanks to the computational algorithm that is proposed to implement our method. Under some mild conditions, we establish the asymptotic properties for the proposed model selection and estimation procedure such as the sparsity and oracle property. We also conduct simulation studies to examine the finite sample performance of the proposed method, and finally apply the method to analyse a real data set, which leads to some interesting findings.

Shifts in the nutritional quality of US young adults based on food sources and socioeconomic status, 1989-2014
Creators: name: Patetta, Matthew
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Background: A lower nutritional quality observed in fast foods and other away from home food sources have led to speculation they increase risk of weight gain. For young adults, a population at high risk of obesity, little is known about the long-term shifts of their diet quality at home compared to away from home sources and whether these changes have influenced diet disparities that exist in the United States.Objective: Our objective was to investigate trends in diet quality for young adults based on food sources and socioeconomic status. Methods: Young adults ages 18-39 were investigated. Diet quality was measured by using the Healthy Eating Index (HEI) 2015 to score participants based on their 24-hour dietary recall data, which were derived from the Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals 1989-1991 and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2012 and 2013-14.Results: Overall, diet quality of the sample population increased across all food sources from 1989-91 to 2011-14. The restaurant category overtook the at-home group for the healthiest food source, while fast food remained the unhealthiest option. Vegetable intake decreased across all sources while overall added sugar content increased. Non-Hispanic Whites and Non-Hispanic Blacks experienced similar increases in HEI-2015 scores across all food sources except restaurants, while Mexican American diet quality did not improve during this time period. Although all income levels experienced an increase in diet quality, the disparity between low and high-income groups increased dramatically.Conclusion: US young adults are consuming healthier foods from all food sources; however, consumers of fast food have significantly lower diet quality for the remainder of the day. Additionally, Mexican Americans and low-income individuals have emerged as high-risk groups for poor diet quality.

description: Using the Hinode/EIS 2$"$ spectroscopic observations, we study the intensity, velocity, and FWHM variations of the strongest Fe XII 195.12 Å line along the jet to find the signature of Alfvén waves. We simulate numerically the impulsively generated Alfvén waves within the vertical Harris current-sheet, forming the jet plasma flows, and mimicking their observational signatures. Using the FLASH code and the atmospheric model with embedded weakly expanding magnetic field configuration within a vertical Harris current-sheet, we solve the two and half-dimensional (2.5-D) ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations to study the evolution of Alfvén waves and vertical flows forming the plasma jet. At a height of $\sim 5~\mathrm{Mm}$ from the base of the jet, the red-shifted velocity component of Fe XII 195.12 Å line attains its maximum ($5~\mathrm{km\,s}^{-1}$) which converts into a blue-shifted one between the altitude of $5-10~\mathrm{Mm}$. The spectral intensity continously increases up to $10~\mathrm{Mm}$, while FWHM still exhibits the low values with almost constant trend. This indicates that the reconnection point within the jet's magnetic field topology lies in the corona $5-10~\mathrm{Mm}$ from its footpoint anchored in the Sun's surface. Beyond this height, FWHM shows a growing trend. This may be the signature of Alfvén waves that impulsively evolve due to reconnection and propagate along the jet. From our numerical data, we evaluate space- and time- averaged Alfvén waves velocity amplitudes at different heights in the jet's current-sheet, which contribute to the non-thermal motions and spectral line broadening. The synthetic width of Fe XII $195.12~\mathrmÅ$ line exhibits similar trend of increment as in the observational data, possibly proving the existence of impulsively generated (by reconnection) Alfvén waves which propagate along the jet.

Response to Uplift in the Landscape of the Coastal Plain of North Carolina

Year: 2015

description: Cenozoic tectonism can be seen in a variety of different ways in the Coastal Plain of North Carolina. Using high resolution Light Detecting and Ranging digital elevation models (LiDAR), the geology of the coast can be analyzed to look for evidence supporting recent tectonism and disequilibrium. The rivers in the Coastal Plain, as well as other features, provide much evidence to support this theory. Looking at the complicated geomorphology of the rivers, particularly the Cape Fear River, gives insight to potential fault locations along the rivers. Most of the streams exhibit stream capture, another sign of disequilibrium, and the amount of stream capture was quantified on the Cape Fear River. There is a southwest migration trend in the major rivers of the Coastal Plain. While the Cape Fear Arch can explain this trend in the Cape Fear River, it does not explain the southwest migration in other rivers in the north as well. Knickpoints were found in all of the rivers in the Coastal Plain. While most of them can be associated with sea level fall or changes in underlying lithologies, there are many that are caused by tectonics. Wave-cut escarpments were once deposited horizontally in various places due to rises and falls in sea level. Elevation profiles along these scarps show a higher elevation in the north than in the south, which could be explained by uplift. This uplift would also account for the southwest migration trend in the rivers.
Possessions of Empire: The Construction of Imperial Identities in Britain and China
Creators: name: Holder, Olivia
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: In the eighteenth century, both the British and Chinese Empires boasted imperial might through the possession of built environments that depicted the cultural other. While the artistic creations of both realms asserted the global reach of each empire, they demonstrated two different approaches to possession. This paper argues that the British owned through understanding and the Chinese possessed through assimilation. The British sought to project a mastery of Chinese culture through defining the Chinese aesthetic and cataloging China within the annals of British knowledge as seen in The Chinese Bedroom at The Badminton House and The Chinese Pagoda at Kew Gardens. China, on the other hand, was less concerned with forming an understanding of Europe but rather sought to assimilate representations of the West within China’s universal empire, placing Europe within the Empire’s China-centric global hierarchy as demonstrated in the Western Palaces of Yuanming Yuan. Again, in the nineteenth century, the material possessions of empire were used as proxies in a contest of imperial identities as Britain and China fought for their differing conceptions of the world order. Even in the twenty-first century, past the dusk of the imperial age, the continuing battle over the possessions of empire marks the lasting significance of the two powers’ imperial identities.
Self-dual configurations in Abelian Higgs models with $k$-generalized gauge field dynamics

description: We have shown the existence of self-dual solutions in new Maxwell-Higgs scenarios where the gauge field possesses a $k$-generalized dynamic, i.e., the kinetic term of gauge field is a highly nonlinear function of $F_{μν}F^{μν}$. We have implemented our proposal by means of a $k$-generalized model displaying the spontaneous symmetry breaking phenomenon. We implement consistently the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield formalism providing highly nonlinear self-dual equations whose solutions are electrically neutral possessing total energy proportional to the magnetic flux. Among the infinite set of possible configurations, we have found families of $k$-generalized models whose self-dual equations have a form mathematically similar to the ones arising in the Maxwell-Higgs or Chern-Simons-Higgs models. Furthermore, we have verified that our proposal also supports infinite twinlike models with $|ϕ|^4$-potential or $|ϕ|^6$-potential. With the aim to show explicitly that the BPS equations are able to provide well-behaved configurations, we have considered a test model in order to study axially symmetric vortices. By depending of the self-dual potential, we have shown that the $k$-generalized model is able to produce solutions that for long distances have a exponential decay (as Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen vortices) or have a power-law decay (characterizing delocalized vortices). In all cases, we observe that the generalization modifies the vortex core size, the magnetic field amplitude and the bosonic masses but the total energy remains proportional to the quantized magnetic flux.

Means are Meaningful: The Effects of Perceived Goal Progress and Means Set Variability on Goal Pursuit
Creators: name: Scialabba, Elena E.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: People who have made little progress toward a goal are in a different psychological state than those who have made significant progress toward it, causing the available means of goal pursuit to differentially influence subsequent self-regulation. In this work, I hypothesized that people with lesser goal progress would be motivated by larger, more varied means sets, whereas people with greater goal progress would be motivated by smaller, less varied means sets. The former offers low progress people multiple opportunities for goal attainment success, and the latter minimizes choice and allows high progress people to have an efficient continued pursuit of the goal. I investigated this hypothesis across three studies. Study 1 demonstrated that, when in a goal progress mindset, participants report stronger goal pursuit intentions when they had a more variable means set available than a less variable means set. Probing this relationship further, Study 2 found that participants who perceived high, but not low, goal progress reported stronger goal pursuit intentions with a less variable means set than a more variable one. Study 3 replicated and extended the findings from Study 2 by demonstrating that participants who perceived low, but not high, goal progress evaluate more variable means sets more positively than less variable means sets. Implications for self-regulation are discussed.

description: Magnetic intensification (MI) acts to change the shape and strength of lines in a magnetic field. Magnetic regions rotating across stellar disks will thus produce traveling deformations in absorption line profiles that will cause apparent radial velocity (RV) shifts. The size of the MI effect depends on the line's Lande geff value, number and relative strength of the Zeeman components, field strength, line strength, and wavelength. I compute simple magnetic radiative transfer models and rotate lines with various geff and Zeeman patterns across model stellar disks to estimate the effect on stellar RVs. I find that for the simplest case, that of a simple triplet, the effect is significant at the ±13 m/s level for a plage covering 1% of a Sun-like star and a modified HARPS RV line list. The magnitude of the MI effect can increase with more complex Zeeman patterns. MI thus poses a significant challenge for sub m/s RV work; its complex dependences argue for a line-by-line approach to RV analyses.

description: In Kiev, in 1911, in the weeks before Passover, a man discovered the body of a thirteen-year-old Christian boy, Andrei Iushchinskii, riddled with approximately forty-seven stab wounds.Far right wing organizations and the Russian imperial government saw the murder as an opportunity accuse Kievan Jews of ritual murder. They thought they could use the case to rally the Russian population behind a shared ideology of anti-Semitism, in order to support the decaying empire. Accusations of ritual murder, also known as blood libel, have plagued Jews since the 1100s. These accusations consist of claims that Jews murder Christian children and drain their blood in order to bake their Passover matzo.Under the guidance of Vladimir Golubev, a local leader of the far right-wing group the Double Headed Eagle, and a nineteen-year-old student at the local university, the police arrested Mendel Beilis in the fall of 1911. Beilis was a middle-aged, non-practicing Jew who happened to work at a factory near the cave where the body was found. He had no connection to Iushchinskii, or to the Jewish community in Kiev. My thesis investigates Jewish life in Kiev prior to the case, the role of antisemitism in the case itself, and the response to it in Great Britain and the United States.

description: This text discusses challenges in proteomics and biomarker discovery, particularly related to clinical sample analysis using tandem mass spectrometry. It mentions that errors can occur due to sample preparation or the measurement process, leading to incorrect outcomes. Correcting these mistakes using advanced methods can be time-consuming. Proteomics laboratories, which are high-throughput, need to quickly distinguish between high- and low-quality data. To address this issue, the text introduces a user-friendly web tool called QCQuan (available at qcquan.net). This tool is based on the CONSTANd normalization algorithm and automatically provides users with exploratory and quality control information. Additionally, it offers a differential expression analysis using straightforward statistics to help researchers efficiently manage their proteomic data quality.

description: We evaluate the $πN$ compositeness of the $Δ(1232)$ resonance so as to clarify the internal structure of $Δ(1232)$ in terms of the $πN$ component. Here the compositeness is defined as contributions from two-body wave functions to the normalization of the total wave function and is extracted from the $πN$ scattering amplitude. In this study we employ the chiral unitary approach with the interaction up to the next-to-leading order plus a bare $Δ$ term in chiral perturbation theory and describe $Δ(1232)$ in an elastic $πN$ scattering. Fitting the $πN$ scattering amplitude to the solution of the partial wave analysis, we obtain a large real part of the $πN$ compositeness for $Δ(1232)$ comparable to unity and non-negligible imaginary part as well, with which we reconfirm the result in the previous study on the $πN$ compositeness for $Δ(1232)$.

Is Mobile Work Really Location-Independent? The Role of Space in the Work of Digital Nomads
Creators: name: Nash, Evyn Caleece
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: The enthusiasm around remote and independent working has rapidly gained momentum in the last few years. The digital nomad phenomenon has frequently been portrayed as an exemplar of this pattern, and referred to by the media as a completely location-independent form of mobile work. However, findings from this study highlight the centrality of various spaces in digital nomadic work, and suggest finding and configuring these spaces allow digital nomads to accomplish productive work. Building on interviews with 23 digital nomads and analyzing pictures of workspaces from Twitter, this study examines the unique relationship between the digital nomad’s spaces, work practices, and technologies which both enable and restrict digital nomadic work. We call into question the common argument that that digital nomads or mobile workers can work from “anywhere, anytime,” as it does not take into account the large role that space plays in shaping work. As such, this exploratory research contributes a better understanding of the difference between mobility and location independence as well as why spaces matter to mobile workers.

description: We use an Adams spectral sequence to calculate the R-motivic stable homotopy groups after inverting eta. The first step is to apply a Bockstein spectral sequence in order to obtain h_1-inverted R-motivic Ext groups, which serve as the input to the eta-inverted R-motivic Adams spectral sequence. The second step is to analyze Adams differentials. The final answer is that the Milnor-Witt (4k-1)-stem has order 2^{u+1}, where u is the 2-adic valuation of 4k. This answer is reminiscent of the classical image of J. We also explore some of the Toda bracket structure of the eta-inverted R-motivic stable homotopy groups.

description: Much effort has gone into detecting stellar CMEs due to their importance for stellar mass and angular momentum loss, and planetary habitability. But what of their stealthier (flare-free) cousins, the filament eruptions (FE)? We explore using the microvariability in filter observations of the He I 1083 nm line to observe FE in stars. Using MLSO CHIP images as our data, we searched for short duration positive gradients in 10830 intensity up to a semi-stable, post eruption level. Working from a solar FE database, we detected 55% of the eruptions with filaments longer than ~150" - mostly the longer, more opaque filaments. A further 42% showed hints of an eruption, but did not pass our detection threshold. Of the events identified, 73% coincided with actual FEs. Application to stellar data should be feasible; tests are planned. (Contributed talk in splinter session.)
HH67.2, a promising novel Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vector, shows improved muscle specificity and infectivity compared to AAV9
Creators: name: Martin, Carrie B.

description: Currently, AAV9 serotype is considered a robust heart and muscle gene delivery vehicle widely used in preclinical studies and in a clinical trial for spinal muscle atrophy (SMA). However, the systemic delivery of AAV9 with large vector doses leads to undesirable effects such as ectopic gene expression in other tissues. These shortcomings may be overcome by using certain strategies such as the development of novel AAV vectors with muscle-specific tropism. Previously, our lab identified a novel muscle specific AAV vector, HH67, by DNA shuffling and in vivo selection. Similar to other evolved tissue-specific vectors, the HH67 vector showed reduced liver tropism, but its transduction efficiency in heart and muscle tissues was still lower than that of AAV9. We set out to introduce site-directed mutations of tyrosine (Y) to phenylalanine (F) on the surface of AAV capsids which has been shown to significantly increase gene transfer efficiency for certain AAV serotypes. In this study, we investigated whether two capsid mutations in HH67, Y445F and Y731F (named HH67.2), would enhance gene delivery to the muscle while maintaining low non-specific transgene expression. We found that the HH67.2 mutant had a significant increase in transgene delivery to the muscle compared to AAV9 after systemic delivery in C57BL/6 mice via tail-vein injection. In the muscle, expression of the LacZ reporter gene (2.5 x 105 ± 65413 units/μg HH67.2 vs 7.2 x 104 ± 8211 units/μg AAV9; p=0.0049) and the DNA genome copy number (4.50 ± 2.07 VG/cell HH67.2 vs 1.15 ± 0.197
VG/cell AAV9; p=0.0118) both increased 3.5-fold compared to AAV9. Furthermore, liver and other non-specific organs showed up to an 11-fold decrease in HH67.2 vector copy number (11.8 ± 2.5 VG/cell HH67.2 liver vs 126.8 ± 39.6 VG/cell AAV9 liver; p<0.0001). However, HH67.2 and AAV9 had no significant difference in gene expression in the heart. LacZ expression results were confirmed by vector genome copy number via quantitative PCR and X-Gal staining. Finally, we also introduced the same Y-F mutations in three similarly shuffled and in vivo selected AAV capsids such as M41, H43 and H48, but the mutations decreased infectivities of all these capsids. Our results suggest that HH67.2 is a novel AAV vector with enhanced muscle specificity and infectivity compared to AAV9 and could be a promising vehicle to deliver therapeutic genes to skeletal muscle or heart.
A PHYSICIAN'S AUTO-HERMENEUTICS OF MEDICAL PRAXIS: CURATING MEANINGS AND VOICE THEMES USING DIALOGICAL PRISM
Creators: name: SIGUA, HELEN S.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: This study is an auto hermeneutic phenomenological inquiry on the lived experience of medical praxis of 40 years of a family medicine specialist. It utilized the dialogical lens to extricate the essential meanings she finds most defined in the three main dialogical landscapes of clinical, educational, and societal (administrative/advocative) she has traversed. The dialogical vertical (spiritual) and horizontal (self, others both, in actual and virtual platforms) scaffoldings were elucidated through a structured methodology of collecting self narratives, integrating, and interpreting . The resulting prism , which may be universally applied to any professional praxis, consists of curated meaning typologies : of trust-building, nurturing, redeeming, stewarding, and inspiring . These typologies are illustrated by conversational snippetsand were juxtaposed with pre-existing theories and models including most upheld Filipino cultural values. The congruence of her analyzed vertical and horizontal scaffoldings along these typologies was also a major explication of this work . Implications to professional praxis, life-long learning , and qualitative research were drawn. A reflection on the process of doing (auto)hermeneutic phenomenology as either/both personal and scholarly undertaking informs (and hopefully inspires) readers to do the same.

description: Introduction: Antibacterial resistance poses a formidable threat to public health. Incidence of infections due to Klebsiella pneumoniae are on the rise, resulting in both increased treatment costs and patient mortality. Treatment currently consists of clinical judgement based on limited evidence. However, dosing strategies for resistant K. pneumoniae infections in critically ill patients are largely unknown. Novel dosing strategies using antibacterial combinations will enable treatment of resistant infections and help preserve the effectiveness of current antibiotics. Methods: We investigated the pharmacodynamics of polymyxin B (PMB), meropenem (MEM), and fosfomycin (FOF) alone and as polymyxin B-based combinations against three Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) producing and one New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) (BAA2146) K. pneumoniae isolates. The rate and extend of killing with monotherapy (PMB: 0.5,1,2,4 mg/L; MEM: 40,60,80,120 mg/L; FOF: 75,150,300 mg/L) and combination of any of the two antibiotics used in combination (PMB: 0.5,1,2,4 mg/L; MEM: 40,60,80,120 mg/L; FOF: 75,150,300 mg/L) were evaluated against polymyxin B susceptible isolates using 24h static time-kill assays.Results: Time-kill assays revealed that monotherapy with PMB, MEM, or FOF was ineffective against the four K. pneumoniae isolates selected except for meropenem monotherapy against Kb677. Polymyxin B monotherapy resulted in early bactericidal killing activity against all strains, followed by regrowth by 24h. Polymyxin B in combination with meropenem (60 and 120 mg/L) resulted in significant > 3 log10 reduction against all strains except Kb140. Meropenem with fosfomycin resulted in > 5 log10 reduction against all isolates for all concentrations evaluated in combination.Conclusions: Meropenem with fosfomycin is a promising combination for the treatment of infections due to such highly resistant K. pneumoniae isolates. Thus, further optimization of this combination is warranted and this may result in dosing strategies that are associated with improved efficacy and reduced toxicity. These combination regimens will be evaluated against a large number of clinical isolates with a range of resistance and susceptibilities profiles in a dynamic in vitro model of infection simulating the humanized antibiotic exposure.

description: Shell model calculations are done to study the structure of neutron-rich carbon isotopes. For both even-A and odd-A neutron-rich carbon isotopes, the energy levels are strongly affected by the configuration mixing of valence neutrons. The calculated energy levels in the nucleus $^{17}$C are significantly improved compared with experimental values when the model space of the three valence neutrons is enlarged from pure $ν(0d_{5/2})^{3}$ configuration to full $sd$ space. We also investigate the configuration mixing effect on the $B(E2)$ values in even-even nuclei $^{16-20}$C.

Subjects: Drama, theatre and performance studies

description: The research deals with the concept of death as one of the important phenomena that cast a shadow over the nature and entity of the individual. Human civilizations and religions have been interested in its two parts of heavenly and positivism, and the perception of it has become clear, each according to his beliefs and behaviors. With the development of human thought, currents and schools began to appear in various sciences by studying that phenomenon, especially after the outbreak of the World War and its consequences in human life at all levels, especially social and economic, and given the privacy that theater enjoys in terms of communication and reception, this study came to shed light on the phenomenon of death. This study included the introduction to the research in which the two researchers presented the research problem, its importance and its goal. Then the theoretical framework that dealt with a theoretical foundation for the research included two topics: death in ancient civilizations and religions, and the second: death in the world stage. After the analysis, the two researchers came up with a set of results, including: The show raised the ire of some specialists by daring to break the taboo barrier and smash the idea of the sacred. There were many images of death in the show, sometimes between bombings, and at other times between kidnapping and murder. I added some symbols with embedded images of death, including the cloak.
Nearer, My God, to Thee: Religion in Executed Persons' Last Statements

description: This study aims to answer three questions: does religiosity increase with the amount of time spent on death row as indicated by religion in the person’s last statement; what themes occur in the religious last statements; and what can we learn about religiosity based on the different mechanisms employed by the religious and nonreligious statements? Using available data from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, I perform a content analysis on all 409 last statements of persons executed between 1982 and 2014. Using interviews with death row chaplains and the theory of theodicy, I conclude that religiosity does not increase with the amount of time spent on death row, but serves as one of two important mechanisms to make meaning out of time on death row and to transcend their impending death.
The Role of Nursing Assistants in Managing Nursing Home Residents’ Pain: A Scoping Review
Creators: name: Dictus, Cassandra

description: Under-recognized and under-treated pain is common in nursing home (NH) residents, especially those with cognitive impairments (CI). Resident pain is associated with poorer resident health and quality of life and more staff stress. Nursing assistants (NAs) spend more time with residents than other care providers but their role in pain management is not well defined. This scoping review examined the literature on the NA’s role in managing NH residents’ pain. The literature search resulted in 60 references which were organized into the following themes: workforce issues, perceptions related to resident pain, recognition and assessment, and interventions. The research is still relatively new in this field. It appears that NA workforce issues (e.g., absenteeism, turnover, staffing levels, education) are important to pain management, but the relationship between these variables is not well understood. Because pain experiences are individual and more common during movement, the NAs’ knowledge of the resident and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) put them in an ideal position to recognize pain, especially in residents with CI. While NAs are motivated to help residents, factors (e.g., misconceptions of pain, a lack of formal pain education, and tension with nurses) sometimes impede NA recognition and communication of resident pain. Most of the research to date focused on the NA’s role in the recognition and assessment of pain, but additional testing is needed before distributing clear guidelines for NA pain assessment. Preliminary research indicates that NAs may also have an important role to play in both preventing pain during ADLs (e.g., bathing and oral care) and administering nonpharmacological treatments (e.g., massage and hot packs).
A Literature Review of Pain Management and Opioid Use: Approach to Formalize Psychological and Behavioral Characteristics in a Virtual Human Patient Simulation

description: Objective: To acquire clinical data on pain management and opioid use disorder in order to provide the relevant artificial intelligence content and foundation to help develop a virtual human patient simulation model. Methods: A systematized search of the PubMed database was conducted using search terms related to opioid drugs and psychological and behavioral processes. A stepwise approach was used to refine and limit search terms and keywords based on the number of results returned. Resulting articles were extracted and used to derive “if-then rules” that reflect each psychological or behavioral change influenced by opioid use. Results: A search from January 2017 to February 2018 identified 62 full-text articles that were included in the literature review. 273 “if-then rules” were derived, with 247 focusing on psychological processes and 26 focusing on behavioral processes. A number of studies involved methadone (33.9%), multiple opioids (24.2%), and buprenorphine (22.6%). Opioid dependence was reported in 41.9% of the studies. Conclusion: This literature review supports the rising interest in opioid replacement therapy, most notably in methadone and buprenorphine, in light of the U.S. opioid epidemic in recent years. Additional research is needed to focus on the effects of opioids on behavioral processes.
