description: Immer wieder wird die fehlende Zeit als ein Grund für die seltene Durchführung von Experimenten im Biologieunterricht angeführt. Trotzdem ist die Planung, Durchführung und Auswertung von Experimenten ein anerkanntes Ziel des Biologieunterrichts. Eine Analyse bisheriger Unterrichtseinheiten der Enzymatik zeigt: Insbesondere die Vorbereitung der Schülerinnen und Schüler (S.) auf das Experimentieren benötigt viel Unterrichtszeit. Häufig kommt dadurch die Auswertung des Experiments am Ende der Stunde zu kurz. Diesem Missstand wird in dieser Konzeption begegnet. Die Vorbereitung der S. auf die Experimente wird durch das Inverted Classroom Models (ICM) motivierend ausgelagert und professionalisiert. Hierbei wird den S. ein Videoclip mit zugehörenden Aufgaben als vorbereitende Hausaufgabe zur Verfügung gestellt. Nach deren Bearbeitung sind die S. mit dem Zweck des Experiments, den Enzymen und den Materialen sowie Tipps zur Durchführung vertraut. Durch die gute Vorbereitung planen die S. während des Unterrichts ein zum Phänomen des Stundeneinstiegs passendes biokatalytisches Experiment zielgerichteter. Zudem beginnen sie schneller mit einer fehlerfreieren Durchführung. Dadurch gibt es vor dem Stundenende ausreichend Zeit zur gemeinsamen Analyse der Ergebnisse z.B. zur Substratspezifität der Enzyme oder der Abhängigkeit der Umsatzrate von Substratmenge, Temperatur bzw. des pH-Wertes.

description: In a generalized framework for the Landauer erasure protocol, we study bounds on the heat dissipated in typical nonequilibrium quantum processes. In contrast to thermodynamic processes, quantum fluctuations are not suppressed in the nonequilibrium regime and cannot be ignored, making such processes difficult to understand and treat. Here we derive an emergent fluctuation relation that virtually guarantees the average heat produced to be dissipated into the reservoir either when the system or reservoir is large (or both) or when the temperature is high. The implication of our result is that for nonequilibrium processes, heat fluctuations away from its average value are suppressed independently of the underlying dynamics exponentially quickly in the dimension of the larger subsystem and linearly in the inverse temperature. We achieve these results by generalizing a concentration of measure relation for subsystem states to the case where the global state is mixed.

description: The type I interferon (IFN) system represents an essential innate immune response that renders cells resistant to virus growth via the molecular actions of IFNinduced effector proteins. IFN-mediated cellular states inhibit growth of numerous and diverse virus types, including those of known pathogenicity as well as potentially emerging agents. As such, targeted pharmacologic activation of the IFN response may represent a novel therapeutic strategy to prevent infection or spread of clinically impactful viruses. In light of this, we employed a high-throughput screen to identify small molecules capable of permeating the cell and of activating IFN-dependent signaling processes. Here we report the identification and characterization of N-(methylcarbamoyl)-2-([5-(4- methylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]sulfanyl)-2-phenylacetamide (referred to as C11), a novel compound capable of inducing IFN secretion from human cells. Using reverse geneticsbased loss-of-function assays, we show that C11 activates the type I IFN response in a manner that requires the adaptor protein STING but not the alternative adaptors MAVS and TRIF. Importantly, treatment of cells with C11 generated a cellular state that potently blocked replication of multiple emerging alphavirus types, including chikungunya, Ross River, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, Mayaro, and O'nyong-nyong viruses. The antiviral effects of C11 were subsequently abrogated in cells lacking STING or the type I IFN receptor, indicating that they are mediated, at least predominantly, by way of STING-mediated IFN secretion and subsequent autocrine/paracrine signaling. This work also allowed characterization of differential antiviral roles of innate immune signaling adaptors and IFN-mediated responses and identified MAVS as being crucial to cellular resistance to alphavirus infection.

description: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an alphavirus responsible for causing epidemic outbreaks of polyarthralgia in humans. Because CHIKV is initially introduced via the skin, where γδ T cells are prevalent, we evaluated the response of these cells to CHIKV infection. CHIKV infection led to a significant increase in γδ T cells in the infected foot and draining lymph node that was associated with the production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in C57BL/6J mice. γδ T cell-/- mice demonstrated exacerbated CHIKV disease characterized by less weight gain and greater foot swelling than occurred in wild-type mice, as well as a transient increase in monocytes and altered cytokine/chemokine expression in the foot. Histologically, γδ T cell-/- mice had increased inflammation-mediated oxidative damage in the ipsilateral foot and ankle joint compared to wild-type mice which was independent of differences in CHIKV replication. These results suggest that γδ T cells play a protective role in limiting the CHIKV-induced inflammatory response and subsequent tissue and joint damage.

description: Airborne wind energy systems are capable of extracting energy from higher wind speeds at higher altitudes. The configuration considered in this paper is based on a tethered kite flown in a pumping orbit. This pumping cycle generates energy by winching out at high tether forces and driving a generator while flying figures-of-eight, or lemniscates, as crosswind pattern. Then, the tether is reeled in while keeping the kite at a neutral position, thus leaving a net amount of generated energy. In order to achieve an economic operation, optimization of pumping cycles is of great interest. In this paper, first the principles of airborne wind energy will be briefly revisited. The first contribution is a singularity-free model for the tethered kite dynamics in quaternion representation, where the model is derived from first principles. The second contribution is an optimal control formulation and numerical results for complete pumping cycles. Based on the developed model, the setup of the optimal control problem (OCP) is described in detail along with its numerical solution based on the direct multiple shooting method in the CasADi optimization environment. Optimization results for a pumping cycle consisting of six lemniscates show that the approach is capable to find an optimal orbit in a few minutes of computation time. For this optimal orbit, the power output is increased by a factor of two compared to a sophisticated initial guess for the considered test scenario.

Murine cytomegalovirus inhibits interferon γ-induced antigen presentation to CD4 T cells by macrophages via regulation of expression of major histocompatibility complex class II-associated genes

description: CD4 T cells and interferon γ (IFN-γ) are required for clearance of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection from the salivary gland in a process taking weeks to months. To explain the inefficiency of salivary gland clearance we hypothesized that MCMV interferes with IFN-γ induced antigen presentation to CD4 T cells. MCMV infection inhibited IFN-γ-induced presentation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II associated peptide antigen by differentiated bone marrow macrophages (BMMΦs) to a T cell hybridoma via impairment of MHC class II cell surface expression. This effect was independent of IFN-α/β induction by MCMV infection, and required direct infection of the BMMΦs with live virus. Inhibition of MHC class II cell surface expression was associated with a six- to eighffold reduction in IFN-γ induced IAb mRNA levels, and comparable decreases in IFN-γ induced expression of invariant chain (Ii), H-2Ma, and H-2Mb mRNAs. Steady state levels of several constitutive host mRNAs, including β-actin, cyclophilin, and CD45 were not significantly decreased by MCMV infection, ruling out a general effect of MCMV infection on mRNA levels. MCMV effects were specific to certain MHC genes since IFN-γ-induced transporter associated with antigen presentation (TAP)2 mRNA levels were minimally altered in infected cells. Analysis of early upstream events in the IFN-γ signaling pathway revealed that MCMV did not affect activation and nuclear translocation of STAT1α, and had minor effects on the early induction of IRF-1 mRNA and protein. We conclude that MCMV infection interferes with IFN-γ-mediated induction of specific MHC genes and the Ii at a stage subsequent to STAT1α activation and nuclear translocation. This impairs antigen presentation to CD4 T cells, and may contribute to the capacity of MCMV to spread and persist within the infected host.

description: The adsorption of MgO molecules on a Fe(001) surface was studied using density functional theory (DFT) and projector augmented wave methods. The energetically most favored configurations for different adsorption sites considered were identified. The most preferable adsorption geometry is when the MgO molecules are parallel to the surface, with Mg in the interstitial site and O in on-top of the Fe atom. During the adsorption of subsequent MgO molecules in this geometry, a sharp, non-oxidized interface is formed between the MgO adlayer and Fe(001) surface. The adsorption of MgO perpendicular to the surface, with oxygen incorporated in the topmost Fe layer is less probable, but may lead to the formation of the FeO layer when stabilized with an excess of oxygen atoms. Structural, electronic and magnetic properties of both interface types were examined for the MgO coverage from 1/9 to 1 monolayer (ML). Electronic and magnetic properties are sensitive to the MgO coverage. For lower coverage of MgO, clear hybridization between the Fe 3d and O 2p states is shown. The average magnetic moment of the surface Fe atoms is reduced with coverage, achieving 2.78 $μ_{\rm B}$ for 1 ML of MgO.

description: In a screen for RNA mutagen resistance, we isolated a high fidelity RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) variant of Coxsackie virus B3 (CVB3). Curiously, this variant A372V is also resistant to amiloride. We hypothesize that amiloride has a previously undescribed mutagenic activity. Indeed, amiloride compounds increase the mutation frequencies of CVB3 and poliovirus and high fidelity variants of both viruses are more resistant to this effect. We hypothesize that this mutagenic activity is mediated through alterations in intracellular ions such as Mg2+ and Mn2+, which in turn increase virus mutation frequency by affecting RdRp fidelity. Furthermore, we show that another amiloride-resistant RdRp variant, S299T, is completely resistant to this mutagenic activity and unaffected by changes in ion concentrations. We show that RdRp variants resist the mutagenic activity of amiloride via two different mechanisms: 1) increased fidelity that generates virus populations presenting lower basal mutation frequencies or 2) resisting changes in divalent cation concentrations that affect polymerase fidelity. Our results uncover a new antiviral approach based on mutagenesis.

title: 'There's lots of suffering in here, but some people are suffering more': Age, Gender and the Pains of Imprisonment
Creators: name: Storry, Madeleine
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: Older offenders are the fastest growing group in the prison population in England and Wales. While most age groups of prisoners have been falling the number of prisoners over the age of 50 has continued to increase. Older prisoners have different needs to the general prison population; however, at the time of writing, the government has yet to implement a policy outlining standards of care for this group of prisoners. This thesis is the result of and nine-month long ethnography that took place in two prisons, a man's, and a woman's, in England from June 2017 to February 2018. It explores the challenges faced by older people in prison, and how this lack of policy impacted on the older prisoner population. It also examines if those difficulties were experienced equally by the older men and women or if, in a system designed for young men, there were gendered differences in the challenges they faced. The findings highlight how the older men and women suffered from three additional pains of imprisonment as a result of their incarceration: the Pains of Isolation, the Pains of Loss and the Pains of Ageing and Deteriorating Health. These additional pains, experienced by the older people, were exacerbated by a prison system that did not make any accommodation for their additional needs. However, these ageing pains of imprisonment were not felt equally by the older prisoner population. There was a gendered aspect to many of them and the older women experienced additional gendered ageing pains of imprisonment. Where possible, the older people attempted to mitigate their ageing pains of imprisonment; by forming social networks, by working, or by finding a benefit to their incarceration. However, their ability to use their limited agency was impacted by the policies of the prison regime. This thesis considered if institutional thoughtlessness assisted in understanding why older people were experiencing additional ageing pains of imprisonment; but concluded that, as a concept, institutional thoughtlessness could not sufficiently explain why these prisoners' needs were overlooked. Moving beyond institutional thoughtlessness, the thesis explores the concept of institutional ageism and how it manifests itself at a macro, meso and micro level; concluding that the ageist policies of the prison service were making the time of older people in prison more difficult and increasing their additional ageing pains of imprisonment. Moreover, when these ageist policies intersected with gender, the ageing pains of imprisonment were experienced more keenly by the older women.
Opinion on syndromic panel-based testing in clinical microbiology

Year: 2020

description: Molecular syndromic testing has received increased attention
in the last 5 to 10 years. However, clinical microbiology
laboratories have been doing syndromic testing
for decades. Cultures for bacteria, viruses, fungi, and mycobacteria
use methods (i.e., culture media, cell lines,
temperatures, incubation conditions) that allow the recovery
of a wide breadth of organisms causing infection
at a particular body site; this is syndromic testing. Although
parasitology largely relies on microscopic examination
of special stains, these techniques encompass detection
of the majority of human parasites described.
Combined, these methods have allowed providers to cast
a broad diagnostic net to determine etiologies of infectious
diseases.

Immersed Boundary Smooth Extension: A high-order method for solving PDE on arbitrary smooth domains using Fourier spectral methods

description: The Immersed Boundary method is a simple, efficient, and robust numerical scheme for solving PDE in general domains, yet it only achieves first-order spatial accuracy near embedded boundaries. In this paper, we introduce a new high-order numerical method which we call the Immersed Boundary Smooth Extension (IBSE) method. The IBSE method achieves high-order accuracy by smoothly extending the unknown solution of the PDE from a given smooth domain to a larger computational domain, enabling the use of simple Cartesian-grid discretizations (e.g. Fourier spectral methods). The method preserves much of the flexibility and robustness of the original IB method. In particular, it requires minimal geometric information to describe the boundary and relies only on convolution with regularized delta-functions to communicate information between the computational grid and the boundary. We present a fast algorithm for solving elliptic equations, which forms the basis for simple, high-order implicit-time methods for parabolic PDE and implicit-explicit methods for related nonlinear PDE. We apply the IBSE method to solve the Poisson, heat, Burgers', and Fitzhugh-Nagumo equations, and demonstrate fourth-order pointwise convergence for Dirichlet problems and third-order pointwise convergence for Neumann problems.

 Nomenclatural notes:— Sonerila rotundifolia was described by Beddome (1861) as “leaf radical, long petioled………, glabrous” and provided two habit sketches, of a hairy and a glabrous plant, in his Icone (1874: t. 169). He cited the collection locality as “Anamallay hills, moist rocky places 4-5000 feet ”. Thorough search in various herbaria resulted in three specimens, one each at K (barcode K000867656!), BM (barcode BM000884959!) and CAL (barcode CAL0000015615!). The sheets at BM and K (barcodes K000867656, BM000884959) bear the annotation “ Sonerila rotundifolia, Beddome, Anamallay hills, 5000 ft ” in his own hand writing and the sheet at CAL (barcode CAL0000015615) has a label, “Beddome, 6/59, Sonerila n. sp., no.61, Anamallays”. Of the two habit sketches in the Icone (t. 169), the glabrous one is drawn from K000867656 and the hairy one from BM000884959. Since the plant is described as glabrous in the protologue, the sheet K000867656 having several glabrous specimens and with a drawing of a seed on the right bottom corner by the author is designated as the lectotype.

description: Quantitative bacterial culture of bronchoalveolar lavage fluids (BALF) is labor-intensive, and the delay involved in performing culture, definitive identification, and susceptibility testing often results in prolonged use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. The Unyvero lower respiratory tract (LRT) panel (Curetis, Holzgerlingen, Germany) allows the multiplexed rapid detection and identification of 20 potential etiologic agents of pneumonia within 5 h of collection. In addition, the assay includes detection of gene sequences that confer antimicrobial resistance. We retrospectively compared the performance of the molecular panel to routine quantitative bacterial culture methods on remnant BALF. Upon testing 175 BALF, we were able to analyze positive agreement of 181 targets from 129 samples, and 46 samples were negative. The positive percent agreement (PPA) among the microbial targets was 96.5%, and the negative percent agreement (NPA) was 99.6%. The targets with a PPA of <100% were Staphylococcus aureus (34/37 [91.9%]), Streptococcus pneumoniae (10/11 [90.9%]), and Enterobacter cloacae complex (2/4 [50%]). For the analyzable resistance targets, concordance with phenotypic susceptibility testing was 79% (14/18). This study found the Unyvero LRT panel largely concordant with culture results; however, no outcome or clinical impact studies were performed.
Kondo effect in the hierarchical s-d model

description: The s-d model describes a chain of spin-1/2 electrons interacting magnetically with a two-level impurity. It was introduced to study the Kondo effect, in which the magnetic susceptibility of the impurity remains finite in the 0-temperature limit as long as the interaction of the impurity with the electrons is anti-ferromagnetic. A variant of this model was introduced by Andrei, which he proved was exactly solvable via Bethe Ansatz. A hierarchical version of Andrei's model was studied by Benfatto and the authors. In the present letter, that discussion is extended to a hierarchical version of the s-d model. The resulting analysis is very similar to the hierarchical Andrei model, though the result is slightly simpler.

description: With established applications of next-generation sequencing in inherited diseases and oncology, clinical laboratories are evaluating the use of metagenomics for identification of infectious agents directly from patient samples, to aid in the diagnosis of infections. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing for infectious diseases promises an unbiased approach to detection of microbes that does not depend on growth in culture or the targeting of specific pathogens. However, the issues of contamination, interpretation of results, selection of databases used for analysis, and prediction of antimicrobial susceptibilities from sequencing data remain challenges. In this Point-Counterpoint, Steve Miller and Charles Chiu discuss the pros of using direct metagenomic sequencing, while Kyle Rodino and Melissa Miller argue for the use of caution.

description: The recent case of Schröder-Turk v Murdoch University has thrown up questions in relation to the extent to which an academic is allowed to criticise the university at which they are employed. What freedom, if any, does an academic have to criticise the practices of their Australian university? Are there any limits to this freedom? Are these limits appropriate? These questions in turn raise questions as to the existence and nature of any right that an academic has to exercise academic freedom in Australia and the extent to which this right may provide an academic with more protection to criticise their university employer than they may have otherwise had and whether this may have unintended, detrimental consequences. Does this right to academic freedom allow academics to criticise their institution whether or not they have a reasonable basis for doing so and if so, should this be the case? This article explores these questions with particular reference to the effect of the Model Code for the Protection of Free Speech and Academic Freedom recommended by former High Court of Australia Chief Justice Robert French and proposes some amendments to this Code.

description: This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of respiratory viral infections (RVI) in persons living with HIV (PLH) admitted with a respiratory complaint using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and primer-independent next-generation sequencing (NGS). Of 82 subjects, respiratory viruses were the most common pathogen identified in 27 (33%), followed by fungus and bacteria in 8 (10%) and 4 (5%) subjects, respectively. Among subjects with RVI, 11 (41%) required ICU admission and 16 (59%) required mechanical ventilation. The proportion of respiratory viruses identified, and the associated complicated hospital course highlights the significant role that RVIs play in the lung health of PLH.

Sonerila scapigera

description: Sonerila scapigera Hooker (1848: 672)
 Lectotype (designated here):— INDIA. Maharashtra: Mumbai district, Bombay Ghats, s.d., Dalzell s.n. (barcode K000867659 [image!]; isolectotype: barcode K000867658 [image!]). Fig. 2.
 Nomenclatural notes:— Sonerila scapigera was described and illustrated by Hooker (1848) based on the specimens collected by Dalzell from “the Ghats, near Bombay ”. However, some sources (Clarke 1879; The Plant List 2013, Tropicos 2018) mention Dalzell as the author while in others (Cooke 1903; IPNI 2018) Hooker as the author. In the protologue Hooker gave the title “figure and description of a new Sonerila from Bombay; discovered by N.A. Dalzell” and in the text noted “our present object is to figure and describe a new species lately received with many other interesting plants from Bombay and which, as far as we can ascertain, is unique in having no stem; hence we name it S. scapigera n. sp. ” From this it is obvious that Dalzell was the collector and that he sent the material to W.J. Hooker, who provided the description of this species. There are two sheets at K (barcodes K000867658!, K000867659!) and the sheet K000867659, perfectly matching with the illustration and protologue, is designated as the lectotype.

description: Plasma Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA measurement has established prognostic utility in EBV-driven lymphomas, where it serves as a circulating tumor DNA marker. The value of plasma EBV measurement may be amplified in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where advanced imaging and molecular technologies for risk stratification are not typically available. However, its utility in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is less certain, given that only a subset of DLBCLs are EBV-positive. To explore this possibility, we measured plasma EBV DNA at diagnosis in a cohort of patients with DLBCL in Malawi. High plasma EBV DNA at diagnosis (≥3.0 log10 copies/mL) was associated with decreased overall survival (OS) (P =.048). When stratified by HIV status, the prognostic utility of baseline plasma EBV DNA level was restricted to HIV-positive patients. Unexpectedly, most HIV-positive patients with high plasma EBV DNA at diagnosis had EBV-negative lymphomas, as confirmed by multiple methods. Even in these HIV-positive patients with EBV-negative DLBCL, high plasma EBV DNA remained associated with shorter OS (P =.014). These results suggest that EBV reactivation in nontumor cells is a poor prognostic finding even in HIV-positive patients with convincingly EBV-negative DLBCL, extending the potential utility of EBV measurement as a valuable and implementable prognostic marker in SSA.

description: Korarima is a known cash crop in the South Omo zone and provides a wide range of economic and sociocultural benefits. Even though its economic and socio-cultural importance the development of the Korarima sector along with the value chain is hampered by several constraints. Hence, the study aimed to analyze the Korarima value chain in the South Omo zone. Using a two-stage sampling technique, 120 Kororima producers were selected to collect primary data through structured questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and econometrics model (multivariate probit model) were used for data analysis. The study identified three major Korarima market outlet choices such as collectors, retailers, and wholesalers as alternatives to Korarima producers to sell the majority of their products. Thus, collectors accounted for 82.2%, wholesalers (73.6%), and retailers (35.5%) of the total sold. The results of a multivariate probit model indicated that sex of household, credit access, family size, price information, market distance, and extension contact of farmers significantly affected the market outlet choice decisions in one or another way. Furthermore, no brand indicating this crop, inadequate infrastructural development, and market accessibility, weak extension services regarding improved varieties were major problems identified. Therefore, it is better to work on the brand name of this particular crop to trace up to the end market, infrastructural development and market accessibility, extension services provided regarding the improved Korarima variety, and accessing formal market information from the concerned body are essential to enhance Korarima producers’ benefit and bargaining power through avoiding information asymmetry.

Hydrodynamic transport in strongly coupled disordered quantum field theories

description: We compute direct current (dc) thermoelectric transport coefficients in strongly coupled quantum field theories without long lived quasiparticles, at finite temperature and charge density, and disordered on long wavelengths compared to the length scale of local thermalization. Many previous transport computations in strongly coupled systems are interpretable hydrodynamically, despite formally going beyond the hydrodynamic regime. This includes momentum relaxation times previously derived by the memory matrix formalism, and non-perturbative holographic results; in the latter case, this is subject to some important subtleties. Our formalism may extend some memory matrix computations to higher orders in the perturbative disorder strength, as well as give valuable insight into non-perturbative regimes. Strongly coupled metals with quantum critical contributions to transport generically transition between coherent and incoherent metals as disorder strength is increased at fixed temperature, analogous to mean field holographic treatments of disorder. From a condensed matter perspective, our theory generalizes the resistor network approximation, and associated variational techniques, to strongly interacting systems where momentum is long lived.

description: It is shown that the topologies and nestings of the zero and nodal sets of random (Gaussian) band limited functions have universal laws of distribution. Qualitative features of the supports of these distributions are determined. In particular the results apply to random monochromatic waves and to random real algebraic hyper-surfaces in projective space.

Exact and Efficient Simulation of Concordant Computation
Creators: name: Cable, Hugo

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Concordant computation is a circuit-based model of quantum computation for mixed states, that assumes that all correlations within the register are discord-free (i.e. the correlations are essentially classical) at every step of the computation. The question of whether concordant computation always admits efficient simulation by a classical computer was first considered by B. Eastin in quant-ph/1006.4402v1, where an answer in the affirmative was given for circuits consisting only of one- and two-qubit gates. Building on this work, we develop the theory of classical simulation of concordant computation. We present a new framework for understanding such computations, argue that a larger class of concordant computations admit efficient simulation, and provide alternative proofs for the main results of quant-ph/1006.4402v1 with an emphasis on the exactness of simulation which is crucial for this model. We include detailed analysis of the arithmetic complexity for solving equations in the simulation, as well as extensions to larger gates and qudits. We explore the limitations of our approach, and discuss the challenges faced in developing efficient classical simulation algorithms for all concordant computations.

description: The proposed study aimed to replicate and extend basic and applied literature pertaining to functional communication training (FCT), delays to reinforcement, concurrent schedules of reinforcement, problem behavior (e.g., escape maintained), and task engagement in individuals with autism. Specifically, we evaluated the effects of presenting a 0-s delay, a mixed delay (0, 30-s) and a fixed delay (15-s) within a concurrent schedule arrangement on problem behavior, preference, and task engagement among three individuals with ASD. An ABAB reversal single-case design was conducted during the current study. During this evaluation, the quality of the reinforcement was manipulated. Selecting the 0-s delay led to lower quality reinforcement (i.e., low preferred items for 30-s), whereas selecting the mixed or fixed delay led to higher quality reinforcement (i.e., access to preferred items for 30-s). Results indicated that two out of three participants preferred the mixed delay over the fixed delay and the 0-s delay to reinforcement alternatives. One participant preferred the mixed and fixed delay equally. None of the participants preferred the 0-s delay to reinforcement. Presenting these three delays to reinforcement alternatives concurrently, at the beginning of treatment, resulted in low levels of problem behavior for all participants and task engagement levels remained at high levels. Potential implications for practice and possible areas of future research on delays to reinforcement, especially regarding mixed delays to reinforcement are discussed.
