description: This study determined the type and frequency of the postdoctoral scholarly activities of doctorally-prepared nurse-faculty in 18 of 22 collegiate schools of nursing nationally which confer nursing doctorates, and the relationship between these activities and each of six personal and academic characteristics. The study also determined factors perceived as contributors and hindrances to the scholarly productivity. The hypothesis proposed that each of four scholarly activities was related to each of six personal and academic characteristics. The study instrument, designed by the writer, was the Postdoctoral Scholarly Activities Inventory. Administered to 357 nurse-faculty, the instrument elicited data for hypotheses testing from 265 respondents (74.2%). Existing relationships among the variables under consideration were determined by the chi square test, using a level of significance of .05. Of the 24 hypothesized relationships, seven were statistically significant: professorial rank was related to publications, research, and presentations; tenure status was related to publications and presentations; marital status and number of dependent children were each related to research. "Personal satisfaction" contributed to the scholarly productivity of 72.3%, and a "heavy workload" was as a hindrance for 86.4%. The most productive scholarly period for 42.6% was two to four years postdoctorally. The 265 respondents were found to be highly productive in postdoctoral scholarly endeavors: 97% had published; 97% had delivered presentations; 85% had done research; and 66% reported personal educational activities. They were more prolific than non-nursing academics studied previously. The high frequency of scholarly productivity among the nurse-faculty studied suggests that: (1) they are adopting socially-defined masculine occupational norms for achievement and success in the academic setting; (2) they are career-oriented, in that they appear to be meeting criteria for promotion and tenure similar to that applied to non-nursing colleagues on campus; and (3) they are contributing to the expansion of nursing knowledge, and thereby are fulfilling expectations in the profession regarding the anticipated accomplishments of doctorally-prepared nurse-faculty.

title: Die Bedeutung der ‚Belt and Road Initiative‘ für chinesische Arbeiter*innen
Creators: name: Brangs, Joschka
Year: 2019

description: 2013 wurde der Welt die chinesische ‚Belt and Road Initiative‘ (BRI) vorgestellt. Das Projekt soll neue Handelsmöglichkeiten für die Volksrepublik China schaffen. Die bishe¬rige For-schung zu dem Projekt befasst sich mehrheitlich mit der Frage, inwiefern es China zu weite-rem wirtschaftlichem Aufschwung und geopolitischer Relevanz verhelfen kann. Dabei wird die soziale Ungleichheit Chinas oft außer Acht gelassen und es wird nicht be¬rücksichtigt, dass Chines*innen unterschiedlicher Klassenzugehörigkeit unterschiedlich von weiterem Wirt-schaftswachstum profitieren. Um dies zu verdeutlichen, befasst sich diese Untersuchung mit der Situation chinesischer Arbeiter*innen. Zentral ist die Frage, inwiefern die BRI als Element der chinesischen Regulationsweise zur Regulation arbei¬ter*innenbezogener Krisentendenzen beitragen kann. Die Untersuchung fußt auf der Wis¬senschaftstheorie des Critical Realism. Auf dieser Basis wird die polit-ökonomische Ent¬wicklung Chinas ab 1978 regulationstheoretisch analysiert und die Ergebnisse den Erwar¬tungen an die BRI gegenübergestellt. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung legen nahe, dass die sozialen Ungleichheiten in China durch die BRI weiter steigen werden. Da bestehende Probleme durch das Projekt eher vergrößert werden, zeigt sich, dass das chinesische Ent¬wicklungsmodell zunehmend in die Krise gerät.
description: In 2013 the Chinese ‚Belt and Road Initiative‘ (BRI) was presented to the world. Its sup-posed to create new trade opportunities for the People’s Republic of China. The majority of previous research on the project addresses the question of how it can help China to con¬tinue its economic upturn and to expand its geopolitical relevance. Doing so, the nation’s social inequality is overseen; and with it, the notion that Chinese from different classes are likely to profit differently from further economical growth. To highlight that problem, this study focuses on Chinese workers. Its central question asks how far the BRI, as an element of the Chinese mode of regulation, can regulate crises that draw from the circumstances of Chinese workers in their homeland. The study is based on the concepts of Critical Realism. Based on these, the polit-economical development of China after 1978 is analyzed by the regulation theory’s framework and then contrasted with the expectations towards the BRI. The results suggest that the BRI will perpetuate the growth of social inequality in China. As existing problems swell, it shows that the Chinese mode of development is becoming increasingly problematic.

title: Die kritische Situation um den sozialen Wohnbau in Linz in Zeiten des Nationalsozialismus
Creators: name: Windischbauer, Alessa
Year: 2019

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Neu- und Umgestaltung der Stadt Linz in den Jahren 1938 bis 1945 – infolge der nationalsozialistischen Ära –, welche sich bestimmend auf die weitere Entwicklung der Stadt auswirkte, unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des sozialen Wohnbaus untersucht. Im Zusammenhang mit dem Nationalsozialismus ist dies durch die glücklich verlebte Kindheit und Jugend Adolf Hitlers von besonderer Bedeutung; so sollte die "Gauhauptstadt Linz" eine Sonderstellung als "Führerstadt" einnehmen. Zunächst wird versucht, die Entstehungsbedingungen des Wohnbauprogrammes in Beziehung zu der Ansiedlung der Industrie – im speziellen der "Hermann-Göring-Werke" – zu analysieren. In Zusammenhang mit der Darstellung des Wohnbaus und der Wohnverhältnisse ab 1938 ist eine Auseinandersetzung mit der architektonischen Gestaltung sowie Disziplinierung der BewohnerInnen unumgänglich. In der abschließenden Diskussion wird auf die Erinnerungskultur und Vergangenheitspolitik im Nachkriegsösterreich eingegangen und untersucht, welchen Stellenwert der Denkmalschutz dieses architektonischen Erbes des Nationalsozialismus für die öffentliche Wahrnehmung einnimmt.
description: The following thesis analyzes the reconstruction of the Austrian city Linz between 1938 and 1945 during the National Socialist regime, which heavily influenced its course, especially social housing. One of the main reasons for social housing to play an important role during that time was the merry childhood of Adolf Hitler. As a result, the "Gauhauptstadt Linz" became a central node of National Socialism as the "Führerstadt". First of all, the formation conditions of the housing programme in connection with the settlement and fortification of industry, especially of the "Hermann-Göring-Werke" are explained. Another important aspect of the housing situation during the Nazi period is the impact of architecture and the disciplining of residents on the housing construction. The thesis concludes with a discussion of the significance of monumentum protection of an architectural legacy from the National Socialist regime in a post-war Austria for the public perception.
title: A Reversal Theory Examination of Running Experiences and the Experiential Advertising of Three Leading Running Brands
Creators: name: Watkins, Leo
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2017

description: Context & Objective
This research examines three distinct phases of consumption linked to the experiential advertising of three leading brands in the running shoe industry. Novel application of reversal theory is used to aid understanding of running experiences presented in three adverts, consumer responses to them, and the lived experiences of runners.
Design & Method
A mixed methods approach was applied across three studies. In study 1, reversal theory was used to identify the metamotivational profiles of each advert. In study 2, a questionnaire comprising the Reversal Theory State Measure and the Positive And Negative Affect Schedule was administered in a within-subjects design to assess advert effects. In study 3, semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten ultra-runners to triangulate the findings of study 1 and examine the phenomenology of ultra-running.
Results
Findings from study 1 demonstrate the utility of reversal theory as an effective framework for auditing experiential advertising; the adverts studied shared narrow metamotivational profiles dominated by autic-mastery but differing across the telic and paratelic states. Findings from study 2 revealed similar effects in viewers across the three adverts, and provided strong empirical support of the concept of metamotivational reversals. In study 3, reversal theory provided an effective framework for unpacking ultra-running experiences, with the concept of psychodiversity proving to be key.
Conclusions & Implications
Findings of the research suggest that running brands should develop more diverse representations of running in their experiential advertising to better reflect the lived experiences of runners and appeal to a wider range of consumers.
title: What are the experiences of educational psychologists when working with adolescent girls in mainstream education with social communication difficulties? An exploratory study.
Creators: name: Such, Amy
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2017

description: Historically, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and associated social communication difficulties (SCD) have been regarded as predominantly male disorders (Sayal et al., 2006). Based on limited research, it has been suggested that the presentation of ASD in girls varies greatly from that in boys (Cridland et al., 2014). The aim of this research was to explore the female presentation of SCD by investigating the experiences of Educational Psychologists (EPs) in order to consider how the role of the EP can be adapted to support girls with ASD and SCD. The research specifically focused on adolescent girls as the local context highlighted this as a critical time within their education. 
The research was conducted from a critical realist stance and used qualitative data collection methods. Initially a focus group was conducted with members of an Outer London Borough Local Authority Educational Psychology Service (n = 5) to provide an overview of EPs’ experiences when working with adolescent girls with SCD in mainstream education. Through thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) it was possible to identify key themes that then fed into an interview schedule. The second phase of the research involved conducting semi-structured interviews with individual EPs (n = 8) to gain a richer picture of their experiences. The data collected from the individual semi-structured interviews was also analysed through thematic analysis, resulting in a number of themes, subthemes and features being identified. 
Areas highlighted by the data included the presentation of adolescent girls with SCD in mainstream education, which was often described in terms of identifiable and overlooked behaviours and featured aspects of vulnerability. Another common theme which emerged from the data was the need to provide support for the young person, schools and families, with support being individual to each young person. The importance of having knowledge of ASD was raised, and it was felt that knowledge was gained through research and personal experience. Participants reflected on the impact that the availability of resources has on their work. Finally, working with others was discussed with reference to multiagency working, systemic thinking and the conflict that can be experienced within this work. The need for good channels of communication was highlighted as a necessity within this theme. The implications of the findings are discussed in relation to the impact that these may have on the role of the EP.

title: "I can do more then I think I can....If I can do this then I can take it further": Participatory Action Research with Young People.
Creators: name: Templer, Jade
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2017

description: Service User (SU) involvement in the development of research and services is an integral part of current policy. This movement has led to a rise in Participatory Action Research (PAR) to empower SU voices and support social change alongside oppressed groups. PAR is an alternative approach to knowledge production which deconstructs power dynamics in researcher-participant relationships. PAR is aligned with liberation and community psychology, social justice and empowerment agendas. Despite the rise in PAR, research with Young People (YP) is lacking, and many PAR projects are constrained by pre-decided topics which can lead to tokenism. Evidence has demonstrated the effectiveness of PAR on the wellbeing and empowerment of YP, and that PAR increases the validity of research. 
This research explored how to co-develop a Participatory Action Research (PAR) project with YP from its initial design. This included co-designing the research topic, location, remuneration and the ways we ran our project. We met online and in person in community spaces, using focus groups. We co-constructed how to design research and what roles we took in the group. We then collaboratively analysed the meetings and process of our PAR project using Thematic Analysis.
We found that the core themes in co-developing PAR with YP were Communication, Collaboration, Knowledge and Learning and the Impact of the Project. These themes are discussed in relation to relevant literature and the research questions.
The Youth Researchers are also in the process of designing their chosen research topic and the subsequent action, which will be discussed. The clinical implications of this project are discussed, including support for the use of PAR with YP and ways to maintain genuine participation. A critical reflection of the project and discussion of potential further research is included.

title: Analysis of the effects of Macrophage Migration
Inhibitory Factor (MIF) on the activation of Toll-like
receptor 4 (TLR4)
Creators: name: Sinosha, Paralikar
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2017

description: Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) was one of the first cytokines to be discovered over 50 years ago and has been characterised in a wide range of mammalian and parasite species. This unique protein possesses the characteristics of a cytokine, chemokine and hormone along with two distinct enzymatic activities. MIF has been shown to be involved in innate and adaptive immunity by modulating Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) intermediates such as MAPK and downstream pathways in inflammation and in cell growth and differentiation, thus playing a key role in chronic inflammation and tumorigenesis. In this study, the role of parasitic and mammalian MIF in TLR4 signalling was investigated. Mus musculus MIF1 (MmMIF1) cDNA was isolated by gene cloning and recombinant fusion MmMIF1 was purified alongside Trichinella spiralis MIF1 (TsMIF1) by affinity and ion exchange chromatography. The effects of MIF on TLR4 signalling were examined by analysing the downstream activation of NFκB and AP-1 via a transcriptional reporter using HEK-Blue™-hTLR4 cells as a model. It was found that upon co-administration of TsMIF1 with LPS, NFκB activation was significantly reduced when compared to LPS treatment alone while MmMIF1 caused no significant changes in the activation levels of TLR4. Since no changes were observed in the NFκB and AP-1 activation levels upon co-administration of MIF in the Tumour necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) pathway, this downstream effect of TsMIF1 can be said to occur within the TLR4 cascade upstream of Transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1).

title: Technology at Work: An Investigation of Technology as a Mediator of Organizational Processes in the Human Services and the Implications for Consultancy Practice
Creators: name: Waggett, Nick
Publisher: name: The University of East London
Year: 2017

description: Increasing technology use in the organization of human services is seen as essential to achieving greater efficiency and effectiveness. However, the promises may not be realised if technology generates processes and structures that are misaligned to the primary task of the service. How and why this occurs, and the role of unconscious and emotional factors, is insufficiently understood. There is limited guidance on how to work with technology in complex services where anxiety, and defences against it, may be a significant factor.
Drawing on systems-psychodynamics, actor-network and process theory, this research addresses these gaps through a methodology in which human and technology are seen to operate symmetrically in the ongoing formation of organizations. The research studies child welfare and mental health services as an ‘extreme case’ for technology implementation as the site of significant transformation and powerful human dynamics. Data are gathered via a visual method known as the social photo-matrix in which participants, all practitioners in these services, generate and respond to images on the theme of ‘technology at work’.
It is found that technology reduces an organization’s capacity for processing emotion which leaves staff with increased anxiety and fewer ways to modify it. Technology mediates organizational processes to make them fit the models of measurement and efficiency by which it operates, and transforms the reality of services both on the ground and in the minds of the people within them. It is concluded that these processes make staff less available to provide compassionate, empathic care for service users, and generate organizational processes that may not be aligned to the task of providing human services. The implication for leaders and consultants is that it is only possible to realise the promises of technology if it is engaged with thoughtfully, in an environment where anxieties can be managed.
title: A New Shift? Explicit and Implicit Mentalizing in Parent-Infant Psychotherapy: A Mixed Methods Design.

Mentalizing is particularly important in the early parent- infant relationship as it is thought to be the process underlying sensitive parenting and the foundation for healthy Mentalizing refers to a capacity to think about others or oneself in terms of intentional mental states (e.g. beliefs, desires, feelings). Mentalizing is particularly important in the early parent- infant relationship as it is thought to be the process underlying sensitive parenting and the foundation for healthy sychotherapy at enhancing PEM; 2) examine PEM and its associations with parental representations, infant attachment, maternal mental health, infant development and parent-infant interactions; and 3) conduct Thematic Analysis (TA) to investigate the elements of change in implicit and explicit parental mentalizing during early caregiving. This research intended to produce findings that could contribute to advancing clinical interventions aimed at fostering positive relationships with parents and their infants. 
In the current study, PEM was coded on data from a study in which mothers with mental health problems and their young infants (<12 months) had been randomly allocated to parent-infant psychotherapy (n = 34) or treatment as usual (n = 31 ). The current project's quantitative findings revealed that PEM ignificantly improved over a 12-month period in both conditions (parent-infant psychotherapy and treatment as usual). PEM was significantly associated with maternal mental health, and parent-infant interactions, but was not associated with parental representations, infant attachment or infant development. TA investigated the processes of change in implicit and explicit mentalizing over the course of a year and produced two main themes: "From Turbulence to Synchronicity" and "The Outside World and Transformations". Analysis revealed that when change occurred, the relationship between parent and infant was transformed towards synchronicity within the dyad and towards resolution and re-engaging with the world outside the dyad. 
Findings suggest that clinical interventions could benefit from integrating embodied and reflective processes into the therapeutic process to increase parental mentalizing and enhance the wellbeing of infants and their families.

title: Leonardos Burlington House-Karton und seine Rezeptionsgeschichte
Creators: name: Ottermayer, Andrea
Year: 2019

description: In der vorliegenden Masterarbeit wird dargestellt, wie Leonardos einzig überlieferter Karton einer Anna Selbdritt mit Johannesknaben - allgemein unter dem Namen "Burlington House- Karton" bekannt - über einen Zeitraum von rund fünfhundert Jahren kopiert, zitiert und adaptiert wurde. Am Beginn der Arbeit wird auf Leonardos Beschäftigung mit dem Thema der Anna Selbdritt eingegangen, die ca. zwei Jahrzehnte andauerte und eine Werkgruppe beinhaltet, die aus einem Gemälde des Louvre, dem Burlington House-Karton, etwa dreißig Studien und einem bzw. zwei heute verschollenen Kartons besteht. Es wird auf die Darstellungstypologie des Kartons, die Frage der Datierung sowie auf die besonderen Merkmale der Bildkomposition - die Figurenverschränkung und Anwendung des Kontrapost - wie sie zuvor noch nicht zu sehen war, eingegangen. Ein Kapitel behandelt die gemeinsamen Jahre, die Leonardo, Michelangelo und Raffael in Florenz verbracht haben - in dieser Zeit entstand mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit der Burlington House-Karton und auch dessen Rezeption fand hier ihren Anfang durch Raffael. Der Weg des Kartons nach Leonardos Tod von Frankreich nach Mailand und über Venedig nach London, wo er sich seit 1962 in der National Gallery befindet, zeigt auch seine weitere Rezeptionsgeschichte: von Leonardos Schüler Francesco Melzi, der nach dem Tod Leonardos im Besitz des Kartons war, über Bernardino Luini zu anonymen flämischen und italienischen Künstlern der ersten Hälfte des 16. Jahrhunderts. Nachdem sich der Karton jahrhundertelang in Privatbesitz befunden hatte, gelangte er schließlich 1779 in den Besitz einer Institution, der Royal Academy of Arts in London. Dieser Umstand führt zu einem Fragenkatalog auf den eingegangen wird: z. B. welche Funktion und Stellenwert der Karton in dieser Künstler-Lehranstalt hatte, sowie die Stellung seines Meisters Leonardo in England vom 17. bis 19. Jahrhundert. Zum Abschluss wird gezeigt, wie mit den Reproduction drawings (after the Leonardo cartoon) der englischen Künstlerin Jenny Saville, Inspiration durch und Auseinandersetzung mit Leonardos Karton im 21. Jahrhundert künstlerischen Ausdruck finden.

Energy Response Model for Liquid Scintillator Detectors
Creators: name: Yu, Miao
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a multi-purpose neutrino experiment under civil construction. The central detector consists of 20 kton liquid scintillator (LS) surrounded by around 18000 20-inch photomultipliers (PMTs) and 25600 3- inch PMTs. The primary physics goal of JUNO is neutrino mass ordering determination by precisely measuring the fine oscillation patterns of reactor neutrinos with a 53 km baseline. Antineutrinos are detected through the inverse beta decay channel in theLS, where the positron carries most of the neutrino energy. To reconstruct a precise positron energy spectrum, the mapping between numbers of photoelectrons on PMTs and the true positron kinetic energy is crucial, and depends on the positron energy nonlinearity and resolution response in the LS. Considering that the common calibration sources are almost all gamma sources, the construction of a calibration-based model to connect energy response of betas with that of gammas is strongly motivated. Once done that, the positron energy response can be calibrated with the existing sources. In this poster, a unified model for both nonlinearity and resolution in LS detectors is presented. The energy resolution contributions by scintillation light and Cherenkov light have been studied in details. Also the utilization of high energy samples, Michel electrons, has been discussed as a potential method for a better description at the high energy range.

Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 390411
subject: Special education and disability

description: This study evaluates the success of dissemination activities carried out by ten developer projects funded by the Handicapped Children's Early Education Program (HCEEP) of the United States Department of Education. Each developer project completed a 43 item questionnaire and provided a list of target sites that they had served via outreach training. A second 30 item questionnaire was sent to these identified target sites. All ten developer questionnaires were returned and 222 target site questionnaires were returned of which 186 contained sufficient information for inclusion. Results indicate no significant relationship between a clearly articulated dissemination philosophy by developers or frequency, length or location of training upon success of programs at target sites as perceived by these target sites. The impact of the Handicapped Childrens Early Education Program indicates that larger numbers of handicapped young children are served by outreach activities than previously estimated. Data analysis reveals significant (.05) variation between outreach training proposed and reported by developers and that actually experienced by the target sites served. More than half of the target sites, 63%, reported that outreach training was critical to the success of their service projects. Reasons for success at target sites in addition to outreach training are staff expertise and administrative and parental support at the local level. Preferred training procedures and suggestions for improved outreach assistance are reported. A total of 80% of the target sites surveyed reported that they were partial replications or adapted development of the original developer model rather than total replications. This study concludes that evaluation of dissemination programs needs to focus on adapted development based on local needs rather than replication fidelity. The variation between proposed and actual practices by developers indicates a need for more efficient planning and procedural evaluation of outreach efforts to align proposed and reported practices by model developers with actual experience of target sites receiving training.
Estimation of Detector Systematic Uncertainties for Multi-Ring Events at the T2K Far Detector
Creators: name: Reh, Michael
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) is a long baseline oscillation experiment that measures the neutrino oscillation parameters by observing νμ (ν¯μ) disappearance and νe (ν¯e) appearance from a nearly pure νμ (ν¯μ) beam. The experiment has two near detectors 280 m from the beam production target, and one far detector located 295 km from the target. The far detector, Super-Kamiokande (SK), is a 50,000 ton water Cherenkov detector. At the energies where the T2K flux peaks (∼ 0.6 GeV), the dominant interactions are charged current quasi–elastic (CCQE), which result in single ring events. There is an ongoing effort to add multi-ring topologies such as charged current resonant pion production (CC1π+) to the T2K analysis. This addition is expected to improve the precision of sin2θ23 and Δm232 measurements. The estimation of systematic uncertainty is important for sensitivity to the neutrino oscillation parameters. One source of uncertainty is the shortcomings of the detector model, and how this impacts the event selection. The far detector systematic uncertainty is estimated via a fit to atmospheric neutrinos events observed in SK. The process of estimating the detector systematic uncertainty, including the multi-ring νμCC1π+ sample, will be presented in this poster.

Results indicate no significant relationship between a clearly articulated dissemination philosophy by developers or frequency, length or location of training upon success of programs at target sites as perceived by these target sites. The impact of the Handicapped Childrens Early Education Program indicates that larger numbers of handicapped young children are served by outreach activities than previously estimated. Data analysis reveals significant (.05) variation between outreach training proposed and reported by developers and that actually experienced by the target sites served. More than half of the target sites, 63%, reported that outreach training was critical to the success of their service projects. Reasons for success at target sites in addition to outreach training are staff expertise and administrative and parental support at the local level. Preferred training procedures and suggestions for improved outreach assistance are reported. A total of 80% of the target sites surveyed reported that they were partial replications or adapted development of the original developer model rather than total replications. This study concludes that evaluation of dissemination programs needs to focus on adapted development based on local needs rather than replication fidelity. The variation between proposed and actual practices by developers indicates a need for more efficient planning and procedural evaluation of outreach efforts to align proposed and reported practices by model developers with actual experience of target sites receiving training.
MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATION IN FEDERAL AGENCIES: AN ANALYSIS OF THE CHARACTERISTICS AND FUNCTIONING OF BOUNDARY-SPANNING PERSONNEL

description: The need for effective boundary agents in organizations increases as environmental turbulence increases. Traditionally, management and organization (M&O) units have served as boundary agents and efficiency experts in Federal organizations. Today the M&O role requires a high level of boundary-spanning activity (BSA), which has not been formally acknowledged, or rewarded. A multi-level data gathering was used to ascertain the current status of M&O units, including both archival information and a mailed-out questionnaire to heads of M&O units throughout the government. The findings indicate that the work programs of M&O units have shifted toward increasing their administrative management activities--an increase of 225 percent over the 1959 figure. In addition, very little time is being committed to conducting long-term studies to improve operations; most studies are short-turnaround, problem-solving exercises. A major problem for management analysts is the continuing conflict and ambiguity they experience as a consequence of their staff positions among less than totally supportive line managers. Evidence of chronic organizational stress was expected, but little was found, as both high levels of job satisfaction and low tension levels were reported. Four causal models based on previous research linking the study variables were evaluated, resulting in discarding two of the four models. The model containing a direct link between BSA and job satisfaction in addition to a link to tension explained the observed data better than the other models. This implies that increasing boundary-spanning activity not only increases satisfaction by reducing tension, but also increases job satisfaction directly. At the organizational level the findings indicate that the M&O function is not being used as it was intended. Analytical work has been displaced by increased administrative management responsibilities, and staffing levels within the units are dropping, compounding the erosion of the resources available for analytical work. Because reducing the analytical capabilities of an organization impairs its ability to adapt to environmental changes, we can expect the changes within M&O units to affect our Federal agencies' long-term health and viability negatively.

description: The NEOS searches for sterile neutrinos by detecting reactor antineutrinos at a very short baseline in Korea. The NEOS detectors (1-ton Gd-LS) were deployed at the tendon gallery of the Hanbit reactor unit 5 (2.8 GW thermal power), 24 m away from the reactor core. In NEOS-I, the prompt energy spectrum from inverse-beta-decay was measured using 180 live-days of reactor-on data, which clearly showed the "5 MeV excess". To understand the "reactor antineutrino anomaly" and the origin of the "5 MeV excess", NEOS-II has recorded 388 (112) live-days of reactor-on(-off) data from September 2018 to October 2020, covering a whole burnup cycle of the reactor. In this work, we report studies on the response of the NEOS-II detector, results of event reconstruction, and related corrections, e.g., for the change of the detector characteristics with time. A simulation was developed and compared with the data energy spectra of beta and gamma events, validating how simulation fits data well.
