description: Statistical methods play a significant role through out the life-cycle of HEP experiments, being an essential component of physics analysis. Only a few basic tools for statistical analysis were available in the public domain FORTRAN libraries for HEP. Nowadays the situation is hardly unchanged even among the libraries of the new generation. The present project in progress aims to develop an object-oriented software toolkit for statistical data analysis. More in particular, the Statistical Comparison component of the toolkit provides algorithms for the comparison of data distributions in a variety of use cases typical of HEP experiments, as regression testing (in various phases of the software life-cycle), validation of simulation through comparison to experimental data, comparison of expected versus reconstructed distributions, comparison of data from different sources - such as different sets of experimental data, or experimental with respect to theoretical distributions. The toolkit contains a variety of goodness-of-fittests, from chi-squared to Kolmogorov-Smirnov, tolessknown, but generally much more powerful tests such as Anderson-Darling, Lilliefors, Cramer-vonMises, Kuiper. Thanks to the component based design and the usage of the standard AIDA interfaces, this tool can be used by other data analysis systems orintegrated in experimental software frameworks. We present the architecture of the system, the statistics methods implemented and the results of its first applications to the validation of the Geant4 Simulation Toolkit and to experimental data analysis.

title: Comparisons of Adopted and Non-Adopted Young Adults' Heterosexual Relationships
Creators: name: Winward, Bryan W.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: Adoption has been seen as a good solution for providing each party involved in the traditional adoption (i.e. , young birth parents, infants, and infertile couples) with a positive outcome. Adoptions, however, are generally more complex and diverse than supposed. Variables such as age of placement, levels of abuse and neglect, and foster care have been shown to place adopted children at risk for later struggles and challenges. Research studying outcomes of adopted young adults and their formation of heterosexual relations has been very limited.
Most adoption studies have focused their attention on young school-age or teenage children, or on adopted adults trying to find their biological parents. It has only been in the last few years that research has begun to focus attention on adopted youth and young adults and their transition to intimate relationships.
This study uses data collected in Wave III by the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. The Add Health Wave III sample consisted of 15,170 young adults, of which 487 were verified as being adopted. Abuse and neglect were looked and in conjunction with adoption in order to identify potential confounds to explain potential adoption effects. Adopted and non-adopted groups were compared along with abused and neglected groups using standardized mean differences, t tests, logistic regression and polytomous logistic regression in order to determine the effects of adoption and abuse and neglect on several heterosexual relationship outcome variables.
The present study provides support for four conclusions about comparisons
between adopted and non-adopted young adults' heterosexual relationships. First,
adoption by itself has a small but significant effect upon sex and cohabitation variables, but has little impact upon violence and satisfaction in relationships. Second, the age at which a person is adopted seems to have little or no effect upon any of the sex, cohabitation, relationship violence, or satisfaction variables. Third, a history of abuse and neglect in childhood has a small but significant effect upon most sex and cohabitation variables, with a larger effect upon variables dealing with relationship violence and satisfaction. Fourth, the combination of adoption and abuse shows the largest effects on all intimate relationship variables.
Findings indicate that adoption does not have as great an impact on relationship variables as theorized. Abuse and neglect seem to play a much larger role in negative heterosexual relationship outcomes.
title: Frequency and Perception of Mathematics Activities in Family Child Care and Parent-Child Routines
Creators: name: Eddy, Annette Kari
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1997

description: The study examined the frequency of preschool mathematics activities at home and in the family child care setting. Provider perception and parent perception of the activities were also surveyed. Twenty-one family child care providers, 38 parents, and 42 preschool children participated in the study. Providers and parents participated in a telephone interview in which they completed either the Day Care Activities Checklist (DAC) or the Parent/Child Activities Checklist (PCAC). Research assistants administered the TEMA-2, a mathematical assessment suitable for preschool children, to the children in the study.
Family child care providers in this study reported engaging in mathematics activities statistically significantly more frequently than did parents. Providers offered mathematics activities about once or twice during the week while parents offered these activities less frequently. Three mathematics activities (provided help in saying numbers past 10, did simple addition with props, and assisted the children in writing numbers) yielded statistically significant differences in weekly frequency. However, for six of the activities there were no statistically significant differences in presentation. The most frequently occurring response for mathematics activities for both groups was "Did not occur this week."
Parents and providers could discriminate mathematics activities from other activities with about the same accuracy. Chi-square tests did not result in a statistically significant discrepancy in the ability of providers and parents to discriminate either the total mathematics activities or individual activities on the DAC and PCAC. The total frequency of mathematics activities with the TEMA-2 Mathematics Quotient MQ for either the parent or provider group did not result in a statistically significant correlation. These two variables resulted in a negative correlation for the provider group but not the parent group. More experts in this study rated the reading or other-play activities as developmentally appropriate when compared to mathematics activities.
Providers in this study reported offering more mathematics activities than parents. This difference was statistically significant. Both groups discriminated mathematics activities from other play activities with about the same accuracy. The frequency of mathematics activities as reported on the DAC or the PCAC when correlated with TEMA-2 MQ scores for either the provider or parent group was not statistically significant. More experts in this study rated the reading or other-play activities as developmentally appropriate when compared to mathematics activities. The information gained from this research project will be beneficial in designing and implementing mathematics resources that are suitable for use for preschool children in the home and the family child care setting.

description: We introduce a new method for the analysis of singularities in the unstable problem $$Δu = -χ_{\{u>0\}},$$ which arises in solid combustion as well as in the composite membrane problem. Our study is confined to points of "supercharacteristic" growth of the solution, i.e. points at which the solution grows faster than the characteristic/invariant scaling of the equation would suggest. At such points the classical theory is doomed to fail, due to incompatibility of the invariant scaling of the equation and the scaling of the solution. In the case of two dimensions our result shows that in a neighborhood of the set at which the second derivatives of $u$ are unbounded, the level set $\{u=0\}$ consists of two $C^1$-curves meeting at right angles. It is important that our result is not confined to the minimal solution of the equation but holds for all solutions.

description: The paper presents the design of an X-band accelerating section for linearizing the longitudinal phase space in the Fractal Linac Coherent Light Source (SPARC). The nine cells structure, operating on the   standing wave mode, is fed by a central coupler and has been designed to obtain a 42 MV/m accelerating gradient. The 2D profile has been determined using the electromagnetic codes Super fish and Oscar-2D while the coupler has been designed using HFSS. Bead-pull measurements made on a copper prototype have been done and the results are illustrated and compared with the numerical ones. Mechanical details of the realized prototype and RF properties of the structure as a function of the assembly characteristics are also discussed.

The motion of a self-excited rigid body
Creators: name: Lee, Richard Way Mah
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis discusses the motion of a rigid body about a fixed point subject to a torque arising from internal reaction. Such a body is called self-excited, and its motion is governed by Euler’s dynamical equations. First, in Section 2 we consider the case of a torque vector which is fixed in direction along the largest or smallest principal axis of the body, and has a component in the chosen axis equal to a constant plus a perturbation term that is proportional to the square of the modulus of the spin vector [character omitted] (p,q,r). It is shown that Euler's equations can be integrated in terms of a variable φ, introduced by means of a differential relation. Further quadrature and inversion yield p,q, and r as functions of the time t. Using the method of phase-plane analysis, we show that the spin vector can perform a variety of motions with respect to the body-fixed trihedral. In particular, when the perturbation is zero, we infer from the corresponding phase-plane trajectories that the spin vector can perform asymptotic motions of the first and second kinds and periodic motions about permanent axes lying in the principal plane perpendicular to the torque vector. Some of the results for this case were also obtained by Grammel, using different method. In the general case, when the perturbation is not zero, these motions are preserved. However, a second type of periodic motion exists; it occurs about the principal axis containing the torque vector, the principal axis itself being a direction of stable permanent rotation. In Section 3 we consider the same problem with the torque vector acting along the middle principal axis. Using the methods of the previous Section, we show that [character omitted] can assume periodic motions as well as asymptotic motions of various kinds. The periodic motions established in these two Sections are then computed in Section 4 as power series in a small parameter. Finally, in Section 5 the motion of a symmetric rigid body moving in a viscous medium subject to a time-dependent torque is studied. Its motion is compared with that in a vacuum. We show first that p,q, and r can be expressed in terms of certain integrals. For the special case where the self-excitement is time-independent and fixed in direction within the body, these integrals can be reduced to the generalized sine and cosine integrals. Their values can be computed from asymptotic and power series which are developed in the same Section. The asymptotic behavior of the spin vector is then discussed, yielding qualitative results which are summarized in three theorems.
Analysis of variance estimators for the seasonal adjustment of economic time series
Creators: name: Diewart, Walter Erwin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this thesis is to develop a valid statistical procedure for the estimation of the seasonal component of an economic time series when the seasonal component is suspected to be partly additive and partly multiplicative to the trend. The proposed procedure is based on a three-way classification analysis of variance model, where the first classification is used to represent the long term trend of the series, the second classification is used to represent any regular trend or cycle within the long term trend, and the third classification is used to represent the seasonal. The interaction term between the long term trend and the seasonal may be used to represent any long term change in the nature of the seasonal. However, as the standard analysis of variance significance tests assume independently distributed residuals, it is necessary to develop a test for independence of residuals against the very likely alternative of first order (positive) serial correlation. This is done by calculating the mean and variance of the Durbin-Watson d statistic for the three-way classification analysis of variance model. A numerical example is given to illustrate the procedure.

description: The synchrotron light emission is a non-thermal radiation source covering a large energy domain from IR to X-ray energies, with a time structure determined by the length and shape of the stored bunches. With suitable infrared detectors, the pulsed emission can be used to perform spectroscopic experiments at high time and spatial resolution. However, fast infrared detectors can be also applied to investigate the physical structure of the stored particles. We present here the first characterization of the synchrotron light emission at DAΦNE using detectors optimized in the mid-IR domain with a sub-ns time resolution. Experiments have been performed using the infrared SINBAD beamline, characterizing the emission of the 105 bunches stored in the electron ring of this e+-e- collider. With both uncooled photoconductive and photovoltaic infrared detectors optimized to work at a wavelength of 10.6 μm we resolved the infrared temporal emission of the electron bunches structure at DAΦNE characterized by bunches separated of 2.7 ns with a rise time of 176 ps and a fall time of 660 ps.

description: The Cassini Division in Saturn's rings contains a series of eight named gaps, three of which contain dense ringlets. Observations of stellar occultations by the Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer onboard the Cassini spacecraft have yielded ~40 accurate and precise measurements of the radial position of the edges of all of these gaps and ringlets. These data reveal suggestive patterns in the shapes of many of the gap edges: the outer edges of the 5 gaps without ringlets are circular to within 1 km, while the inner edges of 6 of the gaps are eccentric, with apsidal precession rates consistent with those expected for eccentric orbits near each edge. Intriguingly, the pattern speeds of these eccentric inner gap edges, together with that of the eccentric Huygens ringlet,form a series with a characteristic spacing of 0.06 degrees/day. The two gaps with non-eccentric inner edges lie near first-order Inner Lindblad Resonances (ILRs) with moons. One such edge is close to the 5:4 ILR with Prometheus. The other resonantly confined edge is the outer edge of the B ring, which lies near the 2:1 Mimas ILR. Detailed investigation of the B-ring-edge data confirm the presence of an m=2 perturbation on the B-ring edge, but also suggest that this pattern moves or librates relative to Mimas. The B-ring edge also has an m=1 component that rotates around the planet at a rate close to the expected apsidal precession rate. The pattern speeds of the eccentric edges in the Cassini Division can potentially be generated from various combinations of the pattern speeds of structures observed on the edge of the B ring. We therefore suggest that the locations of most of the gaps in the Cassini Division may be determined by resonances involving a combination of perturbations from Mimas and the massive edge of the B ring.

title: Bedroom Design and Decoration: A Context for Investigating Developmental Theory in Adolescence
Creators: name: Taylor, Denise E.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: Most developmental theories propose reasons for behavior and changes in behavior due to influences from genetic and environmental factors. A behavioral change that occurs during development, from infancy to adulthood, is the increasing number of choices that are made. The purpose of this study was to investigate developmental theory as it relates to adolescent choice (influences, interactions, activity, preference, and acceptance) in the environment most readily controlled by adolescents, their bedrooms.
Two hundred thirty-four eighth- and ninth-grade students responded to the Adolescent Development and Environments Research Survey. The survey assessed gender, grade, pubertal status, negative/positive passive and active genotype-environment effects, height and weight, and bedroom design and decoration influence, preference, activity, and acceptance (dislike-like).
Results confirmed relations among gender and bedroom design preferences and activity. Girls' bedrooms contained a greater variety of items than did boys' bedrooms. Additionally, girls were overall more active in procuring items for their bedrooms than were boys. Grade differences (within gender) were identified for boys and girls for preferences, but not activity. Regarding pubertal status, Lo and Hi pubertal status girls differed in preferences, and the use of their own money to procure bedroom items. Lo and Hi pubertal status boys differed both in preferences and in bedroom location change. Perceived influences on adolescent bedroom design were associated with preferences for related items (e.g., the "Classes at school" influence category correlated positively with "Bookcase"). Regarding bedroom design acceptance, adolescents were less likely to like heir bedroom designs if they had ignored their parents' opinions about their bedroom design and instead furnished their bedrooms the way they wanted to. Girls who had no masculine items in their bedrooms were likely to have parents who gave the final word about bedroom design. Adolescents' friends influenced their frequency of bedroom design. With regard to obtaining bedroom items, girls and boys differed in the number and type of influences they reported. Previous studies of gender, age (grade), and pubertal status support these findings. Further, these findings support developmental theory suppositions as related to biosocial influences, negative/positive passive gene-environment effects, and opportunity structures.

description: The electron heating process in an ECR ion source is affected by the electromagnetic properties of the plasma chamber and by the coupling properties of microwave generators with the chamber itself.  Hence, the theoretical and experimental study of these properties is very important in order to improve the transfer of the electromagnetic waves energy to the plasma electrons. In this report an analytical and numerical characterization of the SERSE plasma chamber resonant modes is presented along with an experimental and numerical characterization of the microwave coupling.

description: We use the Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism to analyze the effects of rotation on the ground state phases of harmonically trapped Fermi gases, under the assumption that quantized vortices are not excited. We find that the rotation breaks Cooper pairs that are located near the trap edge, and that this leads to a phase separation between the nonrotating superfluid (fully paired) atoms located around the trap center and the rigidly rotating normal (nonpaired) atoms located towards the trap edge, with a coexistence (partially paired) region in between. Furthermore, we show that the superfluid phase that occurs in the coexistence region is characterized by a gapless excitation spectrum, and that it is distinct from the gapped phase that occurs near the trap center.

Creators: name: Thompson, Kevin D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1994

description: Spouse abuse is a significant social problem that has recently received considerable attention by family researchers. National studies have estimated the incidence of spouse abuse in the United States, but few studies have been conducted at the state or local level
Data were obtained from the Utah Division of Family Services Domestic Violence Client Record (Form 741 -S) reporting system. A total of 1,363 primary victims of spouse abuse was identified for the calendar year 1992
It is posited that victims of low socioeconomic status and victims of severe physical abuse are more likely to return to their own home after leaving a spouse abuse shelter. The victim's living arrangement at closure was cross tabulated with data on their socioeconomic status and the severity of abuse as determined by the level of medical treatment required.
It is further posited that spouse abuse victims from urban counties are not significantly different from victims from nonurban counties. T-test analyses compared violence, social-psychological, and family factors along with the type and number of services provided for spouse abuse victims from urban and nonurban counties
The data suggest that spouse abuse victims of middle and upper socioeconomic status are more likely to return to their own homes after receiving services than women of lower and poverty status. No relationship was found between severity of abuse and living arrangements after receiving services. The data also suggest that there is a significant difference between spouse abuse victims from urban and nonurban counties. Incidence rates for victims seeking services were nearly twice as high for nonurban counties compared with urban counties.
While the 741-S system can provide valuable data for family violence researchers, the present system needs to be modified Clear definitions, specific guidelines. additional training for case workers, and a modified data entry system will make the system more user-friendly and facilitate statistical analysis. Research conducted at the local level can provide policy makers with valuable data that can be used to improve domestic violence treatment and prevention services.

description: Dome A, the highest plateau in Antarctica, is being developed as a site for an astronomical observatory. The planned telescopes and instrumentation and the unique site characteristics are conducive toward Type Ia supernova surveys for cosmology. A self-contained search and survey over five years can yield a spectro-photometric time series of ~1000 z<0.08 supernovae. These can serve to anchor the Hubble diagram and quantify the relationship between luminosities and heterogeneities within the Type Ia supernova class, reducing systematics. Larger aperture (>4-m) telescopes are capable of discovering supernovae shortly after explosion out to z~3. These can be fed to space telescopes, and can isolate systematics and extend the redshift range over which we measure the expansion history of the universe.

description: This work is the geometric part of our proof of the weighted fundamental lemma, which is an extension of Ngô Bao Châu's proof of the Langlands-Shelstad fundamental lemma. Ngô's approach is based on a study of the elliptic part of the Hichin fibration. The total space of this fibration is the algebraic stack of Hitchin bundles and its base space is the affine space of "characteristic polynomials". Over the elliptic set, the Hitchin fibration is proper and the number of points of its fibers over a finite field can be expressed in terms of orbital integrals. In this paper, we study the Hitchin fibration over an open set bigger than the elliptic set, namely the "generically regular semi-simple set". The fibers are in general neither of finite type nor separeted. By analogy with Arthur's truncation, we introduce the substack of $ξ$-stable Hitchin bundles. We show that it is a Deligne-Mumford stack, smooth over the base field and proper over the base space of "characteristic polynomials". Moreover, the number of points of the $ξ$-stable fibers over a finite field can be expressed as a sum of weighted orbital integrals, which appear in the Arthur-Selberg trace formula.

Dazu wird ein Überblick über den Stand der Forschung gegeben und eine Studie zur Fehlerkorrektur mit fortgeschrittenen Lernenden vorgestellt, in der die Wirkung einer Fehlerkorrektur am Lernertext überprüft wurde. Die Fehlerkorrektur führte bei der Experimentalgruppe zwar zu einer Reduktion der Fehler in der Überarbeitung, im Vergleich zur Kontrollgruppe aber nicht zu einer signifikanten Verbesserung in einem neuen Text. Um zu eruieren, wie die Lernenden mit der Fehlerkorrektur umgingen, wurde in der Studie außerdem eine qualitative Analyse einzelner Arbeiten vorgenommen. Der Beitrag schließt mit der Frage, welche Rolle eine – nicht sonderlich effektive – Fehlerkorrektur in einer auf Wissenschaftssprache bezogenen Vermittlung einnehmen sollte.

description: Sprachenlernen im Tandem ist eine Methode, bei der zwei Lernende mit unterschiedlichen Sprachen von- und miteinander lernen. Die wachsende Verfügbarkeit elektronischer Medien ermöglicht solche Kooperationen heutzutage auch über große Distanzen (e-Tandem). Der vorliegende Beitrag präsentiert Ergebnisse einer im August/September 2014 durchgeführten Onlinebefragung unter Deutschlernenden in Kolumbien. Ziel dieser Befragung war es, Sprachlerneinstellungen von Lernenden, deren Beweggründe für die Wahl von DaF sowie Erwartungshaltungen hinsichtlich e-Tandems zu erheben. Die Ergebnisse zeigen prinzipiell ein hohes Potenzial dieser Lernform, geben jedoch auch Hinweise auf in der Planung und Durchführung besonders zu beachtende Aspekte, die für eine gelungene Umsetzung unabdingbar sind.

description: This paper explores judgements about the replicability of social and behavioural sciences research and what drives those judgements. Using a mixed methods approach, it draws on qualitative and quantitative data elicited from groups using a structured approach called the IDEA protocol (‘investigate’, ‘discuss’, ‘estimate’ and ‘aggregate’). Five groups of five people with relevant domain expertise evaluated 25 research claims that were subject to at least one replication study. Participants assessed the probability that each of the 25 research claims would replicate (i.e. that a replication study would find a statistically significant result in the same direction as the original study) and described the reasoning behind those judgements. We quantitatively analysed possible correlates of predictive accuracy, including self-rated expertise and updating of judgements after feedback and discussion. We qualitatively analysed the reasoning data to explore the cues, heuristics and patterns of reasoning used by participants. Participants achieved 84% classification accuracy in predicting replicability. Those who engaged in a greater breadth of reasoning provided more accurate replicability judgements. Some reasons were more commonly invoked by more accurate participants, such as ‘effect size’ and ‘reputation’ (e.g. of the field of research). There was also some evidence of a relationship between statistical literacy and accuracy.

description: In contrast to graphene which is a gapless semiconductor, graphane, the hydrogenated graphene, is a semiconductor with an energy gap. Together with the two-dimensional geometry, unique transport features of graphene, and possibility of doping graphane, p and n regions can be defined so that 2D p-n junctions become feasible with small reverse currents. This paper introduces a basic analysis to obtain current-voltage characteristics of such a 2D p-n junction based on graphane. As we show, within the approximation of Shockley law of junctions, an ideal I-V charactristic for this p-n junction is to be expected.
title: The Effects of Mortgage Debt on Assets and Total Resources Among Near-Retirement Households

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the long-term relation between household leverage through the use of mortgages, and changes in household wealth using the theoretical framework of the life cycle income hypothesis. The results of this study are relevant to current positions regarding household leverage via mortgages. This study used the 1992 through 2002 waves of the Health and Retirement Study. The characteristics of leveraged and unleveraged households were compared in 1992 and 2002 as were changes during that period. The relation between household leverage and changes in assets and total resources over the period was modeled using robust regression analysis.
Based on the results of independent 1 tests and chi-square tests, there were statistically significant differences between leveraged and unleveraged The general difference between the two groups was that greater proportions of leveraged households were working in 1992 and 2002 than unleveraged households. This observation was supported by differences in household income, work status trends, age of household head, total resources, and changes in total resources. Unleveraged households had statistically significantly higher assets than leveraged households; however, there was no statistically significant difference in the change in assets between the two groups. households.
Retained or incurred mortgage debt during the study period, relative to not having mortgage debt, had a consistent negative effect on changes in assets and total resources. The initial leverage ratio and square of the initial leverage ratio were not statistically significant in either of the estimated regression models. The effect of eliminating mortgage debt, relative to not having mortgage debt, on changes in assets and total resources was not statistically different from zero.
From the standpoint of maximizing resources, maintaining mortgage debt did not appear to be the best altemative for most households. However, for high-income and more risk-tolerant households, mortgage debt was beneficial and enhanced increases in assets and total resources. While the use of mortgage debt for investment capital had the potential to increase total resources, households may have derived greater satisfaction from using the mortgage proceeds for consumption, given their preferences and expectations. Implications for consumers, financial professionals, educators, and tax policymakers were drawn from the results of the study.
