The effects of varying preference assessment methodology on the occurrence of challenging behavior
Creators: name: Migliaccio, Nicholas
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: Preliminary research has suggested that while preference assessments are important for identifying items for use in behavioral and skill acquisition programming, some procedures may evoke challenging behavior. The occurrence of challenging behavior may vary from person to person due to assessment type and as a function of their challenging behavior. The purpose of this study was to extend on previous research and evaluate the relationships between different functions of challenging behavior and preference assessments. Three different models of preference assessments (paired stimulus (PS), multiple stimulus without replacement (MSWO), and free operant (FO)) were implemented three times each to 4 different participants whose challenging behavior was maintained by access to tangible items, escape from demand, and automatic reinforcement (AR). Results showed that the function of challenging behavior may impact rates of challenging behavior depending on assessment type. Two participants with access to tangible functions demonstrated little to no challenging behavior during all 3 assessment types. Two other participants with escape from demand and AR functions demonstrated higher rates of challenging behavior during the PS and MSWO sessions compared to the FO sessions. These findings suggest that practitioners may want to consider a client’s function of challenging behavior when deciding which preference assessment type is right for them.

description: Control of oxygen stoichiometry in complex oxides via topotactic phase transition is an interesting avenue to not only modifying the physical properties, but utilizing in many energy technologies, such as energy storage and catalysts. However, detailed structural evolution in the close proximity of the topotactic phase transition in multivalent oxides has not been much studied. In this work, we used strontium cobaltites (SrCoOx) epitaxially grown by pulsed laser epitaxy (PLE) as a model system to study the oxidation-driven evolution of the structure, electronic, and magnetic properties. We grew coherently strained SrCoO2.5 thin films and performed post-annealing at various temperatures for topotactic conversion into the perovskite phase (SrCoO3-δ). We clearly observed significant changes in electronic transport, magnetism, and microstructure near the critical temperature for the topotactic transformation from the brownmillerite to the perovskite phase. Nevertheless, the overall crystallinity was well maintained without much structural degradation, indicating that topotactic phase control can be a useful tool to control the physical properties repeatedly via redox reactions.

description: In regional frequency analysis the homogeneity of a group of multiple stations is an essential pre-assumption. A standard procedure in hydrology to evaluate this condition is the test based on the homogeneity measure of Hosking and Wallis, which applies L-moments. Disadvantages of it are the lack of power when analysing highly skewed data and the implicit assumption of spatial independence. To face these issues we generalize this procedure in two ways. Copulas are utilised to model intersite dependence and trimmed L-moments as a more robust alternative to ordinary L-moments. The results of simulation studies are presented to discuss the influence of different copula models and different trimming parameters. It turns out that the usage of asymmetrically trimmed L-moments improves the heterogeneity detection in skewed data, while maintaining a reasonable error rate. Simple copula models are sufficient to incorporate the dependence structure of the data in the procedure. Additionally, a more robust behaviour against extreme events at single stations is achieved with the use of trimmed L-moments. Strong intersite dependence and skewed data reveal the need of a modified procedure in a case study with data from Saxony, Germany.

Plebanski-like action for general relativity and anti-self-dual gravity

description: We present a new $BF$-type action for complex general relativity with or without a cosmological constant resembling Plebanski's action, which depends on an SO(3,$\mathbb{C}$) connection, a set of 2-forms, a symmetric matrix, and a 4-form. However, it differs from the Plebanski formulation in the way that the symmetric matrix enters into the action. The advantage of this fact is twofold. First, as compared to Plebanski's action, the symmetric matrix can now be integrated out, which leads to a pure $BF$-type action principle for general relativity; the canonical analysis of the new action then shows that it has the same phase space of the Ashtekar formalism up to a canonical transformation induced by a topological term. Second, a particular choice of the parameters involved in the formulation produces a $BF$-type action principle describing conformally anti-self-dual gravity. Therefore, the new action unifies both general relativity and anti-self-dual gravity.

description: Further consideration is given to the efficiency of black hole heat engines that perform mechanical work via the pdV terms present in the First Law of extended gravitational thermodynamics. It is noted that when the engine cycle is a rectangle with sides parallel to the (p,V) axes, the efficiency can be written simply in terms of the mass of the black hole evaluated at the corners. Since an arbitrary cycle can be approximated to any desired accuracy by a tiling of rectangles, a general geometrical algorithm for computing the efficiency follows. A simple generalization of the algorithm renders it applicable to more general classes of heat engine, beyond the black hole context.

description: Model transformations, together with models, form the principal artifacts in model-driven software development. Industrial practitioners report that transformations on larger models quickly get sufficiently large and complex themselves. To alleviate entailed maintenance efforts, this thesis presents a modularity concept with explicit interfaces, complemented by software visualization and clustering techniques. All three approaches are tailored to the specific needs of the transformation domain.
DDI Variable Documentation and data access using R

description: Processing statistical files produced by STATA or SPSS are used for the documentation of research data. They contain information about the variables, explicitly variable name and label, as well as the response scales. But foremost the statistical files contain the data. So, besides the general metadata documentation also frequency tables, summary statistics or cross tables are created for documentation purposes based on the files. In order to enhance and automate the documentation process for archiving research data, I created an architecture based on R, exposed as generic REST API, partially based on the DDIwithR package. In the presentation I will describe the general architecture, how it is integrated into the DDI documentation process within the GESIS questionnaire editor. The process consists of - Reading the statistical file to connect questions in the questionnaire editor with variable metadata and store it in DDI LC 3.2 - Generating statistical information such as summary statistics and store it as variable statistics in DDI. - Furthermore, the package is technically able to give access to the actual data for direct usage in R, without downloading the SPSS/STATA file, either the complete dataset or singled out variables via PIDs.

description: We report the optical imaging of a single atom with nanometer resolution using an adaptive optical alignment technique that is applicable to general optical microscopy. By decomposing the image of a single laser-cooled atom, we identify and correct optical aberrations in the system and realize an atomic position sensitivity of $\approx$ 0.5 nm/$\sqrt{\text{Hz}}$ with a minimum uncertainty of 1.7 nm, allowing the direct imaging of atomic motion. This is the highest position sensitivity ever measured for an isolated atom, and opens up the possibility of performing out-of-focus 3D particle tracking, imaging of atoms in 3D optical lattices or sensing forces at the yoctonewton (10$^{-24}$ N) scale.

description: We report optical spectroscopy and ultrafast pump-probe measurements on the antiferromagnetic heavy fermion compound CePt$_2$In$_7$, a member showing stronger two dimensionality than other compounds in CeIn$_3$-derived heavy-fermion family. We identify clear and typical hybridization spectral structures at low temperature from the two different spectroscopy probes. However, the strength and related energy scale of the hybridization are much weaker and smaller than that in the superconducting compounds CeCoIn$_5$ and CeIrIn$_5$. The features are more similar to observations on the antiferromagnetic compounds CeIn$_3$ and CeRhIn$_5$ in the same family. The results clearly indicate that the Kondo interaction and hybridizations exist in the antiferromagnetic compounds but with weaker strength.

description: We revisit the MIC-harmonic oscillator in flat space with monopole interaction and derive the polynomial algebra satisfied by the integrals of motion and its energy spectrum using the ad hoc recurrence approach. We introduce a superintegrable monopole system in generalized Taub-NUT space. The Schrödinger equation of this model is solved in spherical coordinates in the framework of Stäckel transformation. It is shown that wave functions of the quantum system can be expressed in terms of the product of Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials. We construct ladder and shift operators based on the corresponding wave functions and obtain the recurrence formulas. By applying these recurrence relations, we construct higher order algebraically independent integrals of motion. We show the integrals form a polynomial algebra. We construct the structure functions of the polynomial algebra and obtain the degenerate energy spectra of the model.

description: This study reports the existence of redox-induced electron transfer in lithium polysulfides (RIET). The presence of redox-induced electron transfer in lithium polysulfides is confirmed using a DFT study. The sulfur gets oxidized, and lithium gets reduced during the removal of an electron from lithium polysulfides. The condensed Fukui function from Natural Population Analysis (NPA) charge and electron density augment RIET. The higher number of sulfur contributes to the total nucleophilic character of lithium polysulfide and holds lithium tightly. The presence of an electric field enhances the nucleophilicity of sulfur atoms and, hence, the reactivity of lithium polysulfides.

description: A novel [C4H10-DABCO][ClO4]2 DABCO based protic acid supported ionic liquid has been synthesized, characterized, and evaluated as an efficient, economic, and reusable catalyst for the one pot, three component synthesis of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one in an aqueous medium with high to excellent yield. This study compares DABCO based ionic liquids [H2-DABCO][HSO4]2, [H2-DABCO][H2PO4]2, [H2-DABCO][ClO4]2, and [C4H10-DABCO][ClO4]2 to highlight the impact of cations and anions on the catalytic applicability and moisture-resistance properties. The DABCO based Bifunctional Acidic Ionic Liquid (DBAIL) catalyst was effectively recycled five times without losing significant catalytic activity. Five of the synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against the MCF-7 cell line using MTT assay, and the compounds showed moderate to good activity.

description: Optical isolators are an important building block in photonic computation and communication. In traditional optics, isolators are realized with magneto-optical garnets. However, it remains challenging to incorporate such materials on an integrated platform because of the difficulty in material growth and bulky device footprint. Here, we propose an ultracompact integrated isolator by exploiting graphene's magneto-optical property on a silicon-on-insulator platform. The photonic nonreciprocity is achieved because the cyclotrons in graphene experiencing different optical spin exhibit different response to counterpropagating light. Taking advantage of cavity resonance effects, we have numerically optimized a device design, which shows excellent isolation performance with the extinction ratio over 45 dB and the insertion loss around 12 dB at a wavelength near 1.55 um. Featuring graphene's CMOS compatibility and substantially reduced device footprint, our proposal sheds light to monolithic integration of nonreciprocal photonic devices.

description: Se la pittura di primo Seicento a Genova, e segnatamente gli influssi che su questa ebbe il luminismo caravaggesco, sono materia di sempre maggiore interesse nel campo degli studi genovesi – lo dimostrano le corpose pubblicazioni, nonché le più recenti esposizioni – va purtroppo segnalata una stasi nelle ricerche storico-artistiche isolane. Il presente contributo intende riportare l’attenzione, attraverso l’analisi e la rilettura di casi studio già noti, sul traffico di opere d’arte fra Genova e la Sardegna attraverso l’esercizio della mercatura. Despite the growing interest on the early 17th century’s painting in Genoa, with a more particular attention around the caravaggesque studies – which is proved by the large number of publications and exhibitions on the subject – unfortunately a stagnation in Sardinian researches must be reported. By reviewing some already well known case-studies, the Author will try here to bring attention back on art trafficking between Genoa and Sardinia through genoese merchants.

description: The protonation of thioanisols by strong acids, such as trifluoroacetic acid or trifluoromethane sulfonic acid was investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy, including experiments with deuterated acids. Contrary to reported literature and to general expectations, protonation of thioanisole does not occur exclusively at the methylmercapto group but also to a lower extent at the aromatic ring. In cases of methoxy-substituted thioanisols protonation can take place at both heteroatomic groups and at the aromatic ring. The sites of protonation depend on the substituent pattern as unambiguously indicated by deuteration.

The LOFAR observations, when combined with VLA, GMRT, and Chandra X-ray data, provide new information about the nature of cluster merger shocks and their role in re-accelerating relativistic particles. We derive a spectral index of $α= -0.8 \pm 0.1$ at the northern edge of the main radio relic, steepening towards the south to $α\approx - 2$. The spectral index of the radio halo is remarkably uniform ($α= -1.16$, with an intrinsic scatter of $\leq 0.04$). The observed radio relic spectral index gives a Mach number of $\mathcal{M} = 2.8^{+0.5}_{-0.3}$, assuming diffusive shock acceleration (DSA). However, the gas density jump at the northern edge of the large radio relic implies a much weaker shock ($\mathcal{M} \approx 1.2$, with an upper limit of $\mathcal{M} \approx 1.5$). The discrepancy between the Mach numbers calculated from the radio and X-rays can be explained if either (i) the relic traces a complex shock surface along the line of sight, or (ii) if the radio relic emission is produced by a re-accelerated population of fossil particles from a radio galaxy. Our results highlight the need for additional theoretical work and numerical simulations of particle acceleration and re-acceleration at cluster merger shocks.

description: In this study, the solvent effects are probed on the chemical reaction of the (E)-3-thiophene-2-yl-indoline-2-thione (I) and [20] fullerene, and the resulted complex (Ia) via the density functional theory (DFT). To characterize the synchronicity of the reaction and its correlation with activation energy, we estimated the energy barrier of transition states (ETS1≠ and ETS2≠) in the used solvents. The highest ETS1≠ and ETS2≠ value are found in water solvent, whereas the lowest ETS1≠ and ETS2≠ value are considered in the gas phase. Formation of the TS2 appears energetically less favorable due to the non-bonding electrostatic repulsion among the sulfur heteroatoms and C20, also the π–stacking between the thiophene ring and nanocage, which affects the stability of the TSs. The most thermodynamic stability, the adsorption energy difference among liquid phase and gas phase (ΔEl-g = El − Eg), and the most polarity (µ) belongs to stabilizing effect of water solvent on Ia, whereas the lowest thermodynamic stability, the lowest released ΔEl-g and the least polarity belongs to optimization of Ia in the gas phase. This stabilizing effect is attributed to the possibility of hydrogen bonding and dipole–dipole interaction in the water. The n→π* donation of N–C═S leads to a stronger interaction between sulfur heteroatom of I and fullerene. In contrast to the previous report on the produced thio-oxindoles in organic solvents, toluene was found to be the best solvent in terms of the highest yield and the shortest reaction time, in this case, adsorption takes place in water with no catalyst addition. Here, we have focused on chemical reaction of I and C20 to produce Ia complex via the optimized TSs in the gas phase, toluene, dichloromethane, methanol, acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide and water, using DFT approach.

description: Semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes are classified into two types by means of orbital angular momentum of valley state, which is useful to study their low energy electronic properties in finite-length. The classification is given by an integer $d$, which is the greatest common divisor of two integers $n$ and $m$ specifying the chirality of nanotubes, by analyzing cutting lines. For the case that $d$ is equal to or greater than four, two lowest subbands from two valleys have different angular momenta with respect to the nanotube axis. Reflecting the decoupling of two valleys, discrete energy levels in finite-length nanotubes exhibit nearly fourfold degeneracy and its small lift by the spin-orbit interaction. For the case that $d$ is less than or equal to two, in which two lowest subbands from two valleys have the same angular momentum, discrete levels exhibit lift of fourfold degeneracy reflecting the coupling of two valleys. Especially, two valleys are strongly coupled when the chirality is close to the armchair chirality. An effective one-dimensional lattice model is derived by extracting states with relevant angular momentum, which reveals the valley coupling in the eigenstates. A bulk-edge correspondence, relationship between number of edge states and the winding number calculated in the corresponding bulk system, is analytically shown by using the argument principle, which enables us to estimate the number of edge states from the bulk property. The number of edge states depends not only on the chirality but also on the shape of boundary.

Is the Effective Field Theory of Dark Energy Effective?

description: The effective field theory of cosmic acceleration systematizes possible contributions to the action, accounting for both dark energy and modifications of gravity. Rather than making model dependent assumptions, it includes all terms, subject to the required symmetries, with four (seven) functions of time for the coefficients. These correspond respectively to the Horndeski and general beyond Horndeski class of theories. We address the question of whether this general systematization is actually effective, i.e. useful in revealing the nature of cosmic acceleration when compared with cosmological data. The answer is no and yes: {\it there is no simple time dependence of the free functions} -- assumed forms in the literature are poor fits, but one can derive some general characteristics in early and late time limits. For example, we prove that the gravitational slip must restore to general relativity in the de Sitter limit of Horndeski theories, and why it doesn't more generally. We also clarify the relation between the tensor and scalar sectors, and its important relation to observations; in a real sense the expansion history $H(z)$ or dark energy equation of state $w(z)$ is $1/5$ or less of the functional information! In addition we discuss the de Sitter, Horndeski, and decoupling limits of the theory utilizing Goldstone techniques.

description: Motivated by a question of Rota, this paper studies the relationship between Rota--Baxter algebras and symmetric related functions. The starting point is the fact that the space of quasi-symmetric functions is spanned by monomial quasi-symmetric functions which are indexed by compositions. When composition is replaced by left weak composition (LWC), we obtain the concept of LWC monomial quasi-symmetric functions and the resulting space of LWC quasi-symmetric functions. In line with the question of Rota, the latter is shown to be isomorphic to the free commutative nonunitary Rota--Baxter algebra on one generator. The combinatorial interpretation of quasi-symmetric functions by $P$-partitions from compositions is extended to the context of left weak compositions, leading to the concept of LWC fundamental quasi-symmetric functions. The transformation formulas for LWC monomial and LWC fundamental quasi-symmetric functions are obtained, generalizing the corresponding results for quasi-symmetric functions. Extending the close relationship between quasi-symmetric functions and multiple zeta values, weighted multiple zeta values and a $q$-analog of multiple zeta values are investigated and a decomposition formula is established.

description: The India based Neutrino Observatory (INO) is a mega science project of India, which is going to use near about 30, 000 Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) as active detector elements for the study of atmospheric neutrino oscillations. Each RPC detector will consist of two orthogonally placed readout strips panel for picking the signals generated in the gas chamber. The area of RPC detector in INO-ICAL (Iron Calorimeter) experiment will be 2m x 2m, therefore the dimension of readout strips panel will also be of 2m x 2m. To get undistorted signals pass through the readout strips panel to frontend electronics, their Characteristic Impedance should be matched with each other. For the matching of Characteristic Impedance we have used the principle of termination. In the present paper we will describe the need and search of new dielectric material for the fabrication of flame resistant, waterproof and flexible readout pickup strips panel. We will also describe the measurement of Characteristic Impedance of plastic honeycomb based readout strips panel and Silicon Fiber sheet based readout strips panel in a comparative way, and its variation under loading and with time.

description: We study the motion of a solid particle immersed in a Newtonian fluid and confined between two parallel elastic membranes possessing shear and bending rigidity. The hydrodynamic mobility depends on the frequency of the particle motion due to the elastic energy stored in the membrane. Unlike the single-membrane case, a coupling between shearing and bending exists. The commonly used approximation of superposing two single-membrane contributions is found to give reasonable results only for motions in the parallel, but not in the perpendicular direction. We also compute analytically the membrane deformation resulting from the motion of the particle, showing that the presence of the second membrane reduces deformation. Using the fluctuation-dissipation theorem we compute the Brownian motion of the particle, finding a long-lasting subdiffusive regime at intermediate time scales. We finally assess the accuracy of the employed point-particle approximation via boundary-integral simulations for a truly extended particle. They are found to be in excellent agreement with the analytical predictions.
