description: Inequality or skew in reproductive success (RS) is common across many animal species and is of long-standing interest to the study of social evolution. However, the measurement of inequality in RS in natural populations has been challenging because existing quantitative measures are highly sensitive to variation in group/sample size, mean RS and age-structure. This makes comparisons across multiple groups and/or species vulnerable to statistical artefacts and hinders empirical and theoretical progress. Here, we present a new measure of reproductive skew, the multinomial index, M, that is unaffected by many of the structural biases affecting existing indices. M is analytically related to Nonacs’ binomial index, B, and comparably accounts for heterogeneity in age across individuals; in addition, M allows for the possibility of diminishing or even highly nonlinear RS returns to age. Unlike B, however, M is not biased by differences in sample/group size. To demonstrate the value of our index for cross-population comparisons, we conduct a reanalysis of male reproductive skew in 31 primate species. We show that a previously reported negative effect of group size on mating skew was an artefact of structural biases in existing skew measures, which inevitably decline with group size; this bias disappears when using M. Applying phylogenetically controlled, mixed-effects models to the same dataset, we identify key similarities and differences in the inferred within- and between-species predictors of reproductive skew across metrics. Finally, we provide an R package, SkewCalc, to estimate M from empirical data.

description: The aim of pilot 6 is to assess the efficacy of the E-ARK Information Package Specifications which defines how metadata and data should be packaged in order to move records between the three stages of records keeping - active, semi-active and inactive.

On a typical setting, a record that needs to be archived usually falls into one these three “ages”:

1. Active - when the metadata and data are “live” being used and modified regularly.

2. Semi-active - when the metadata and data are archived for a short period – say up to 5 years.

3. Inactive - when the metadata and data are moved to a long-term repository for permanent conservation.

The pilot aims to ensure the seamless transference of information between the semi-active and the inactive stages in a way that no relevant data or metadata is lost in the process. To accomplish this goal, a special integration tool has been developed that implements the package specifications and orchestrates the entire transfer process.
The Political Economy of Internet Celebrities in China
Creators: name: Yang, Xinyi
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2022

description: Internet celebrities in China, usually called ‘Wang Hong’ in Chinese slang, refer to those who become famous on the Internet. They may catch people’s eyes because of certain events or behaviour and attract followers and fans on social platforms. From texts to pictures, videos, and livestreams, the rapid development of Internet information technology has brought about the evolution of social media in China. Although some observers argue that Internet celebrities in China advance participatory culture, the phenomenon advances monetarization, commodification, a colonised networked public sphere that operates as a sphere of culture consumption, and potentials for the overaccumulation of capital, the overproduction of commodities, and the exploitation of labour-power. Political economy is a major perspective in communication and media research that is suited for studying processes of commodification and their impacts on society. Therefore, this dissertation uses this tradition of communication research. The research combines critical theory and empirical social research methods to study the political economy of Internet celebrities in China. The specific research questions are as follows: Main research question: How does the political economy of Internet celebrities look like in China? The main research question can be subdivided into four sub-questions: RQ1: How does commodification work in the political economy of Chinese Internet celebrities? RQ2: How do the working conditions look like in China’s Internet celebrity industry? RQ3: How does the everyday life of those who work in the Internet celebrity industry look like in China? RQ4: How does the identity construction of fans of Internet celebrities look like? The researcher conducted semi-structured interviews with 9 influencers, 9 proletarianized platform workers who aim to become famous online but have ended up as precarious online workers, and 15 fans. The research is situated in the context of three types of Internet platforms: social media platforms, short video sites, and live streaming platforms. The findings of the study show that China’s Internet celebrity industry is a dynamic industrial system where Internet capitalists make profits, obscure their legal relationship to Internet celebrities and fans, and carry out labour control through incentive systems and product management systems. The result is a highpressure work environment where online workers dream of becoming famous, love their work and face highly precarious conditions. Only a selected few of them become rich and famous.

description: Tall fescue has many desirable qualities for cattle production, which is why this forage is grazed on a large portion of the United States, commonly referred to as the Fescue Belt. However, tall fescue has physiological characteristics that can cause problems for cattle producers during summer. Furthermore, this forage provides little protection and cover for wildlife, particularly northern bobwhite quail. Utilizing native warm-season grasses (NWSGs) for grazing during summer is one possible way to provide both timely summer forage and a quality habitat for quail. This report summarizes studies on cattle performance and economics of grazing NWSGs in the Fescue Belt as well as how NWSGs can enhance the quail habitat. However, more research is needed on implementing a tall fescue and NWSG grazing system for cow-calf and stocker production, while considering the impact of these forages on northern bobwhite quail habitat and populations.

description: In lightweight design, developers are used to face the conflicting objectives of functional fulfillment, economic performance, and sustainability. Against this background, however, a clearly structured approach for the satisfied use of specific lightweight engineering methods within the product development is still missing. Thus, this contribution deals with the fundamental conception and first implementation of a systematic development methodology covering the disciplines of mechanics, electrics/electronics and software just like the focus on an integrated view on product, production and material aspects. To ensure an application-specific manifestation of the product development process for three exemplary use cases from small and medium-sized enterprises but also large corporations in the area of prosthetics, bike construction and plant engineering, the individually developed methods and tools are first generalized in order to make them adaptable to a wide variety of industries. As a result, one lightweight-specific method or tool (e.g., function mass analysis, “PPM solution correlator“ or “2D layout & weight drafting”) is introduced in more detail for all stages of the technically extended RFL(T)P approach derived from model-based systems engineering (MBSE).

description: The antimicrobial activities, efficacy and potency of two commercial disinfectants viz: purite and bleach (Jik) commonly used at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital (UCTH) were investigated. Using the capacity-use dilution tests procedures an in-use test method, three different concentrations were determined and assessed against two of the commonest bacteria: Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated at UCTH. The suspension of the test organisms was prepared using McFarland standard. Equal volumes of the inoculums and disinfectants dilution were mixed and cultured at 370 C for 21 days. The results showed that there was effective antibacterial activity at higher concentration (25%) above the manufacturers’ recommendation for the two disinfectants tested. However, their activities were significantly reduced at lower concentrations. Again, the duration and potency of bleach was shorter as compared to purite. Hence purite appears to present grater activity efficacy and potency than the bleach and would be a preferred disinfectant. The need to educate the end users of these disinfectants about their different degrees of efficacy and and required concentration for maximum results is highlighted.

description: Salamanders show unparalleled capacities of tissue regeneration amongst tetrapods (four-legged vertebrates), being able to repair and renew lost or damage body parts, such as tails, jaws, and limbs in a seemingly perfect fashion. Despite countless studies on axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) regeneration, only a few studies have thus far compared gross morphological and histological features of the original and regenerated limb skeleton. Therein, most studies have focused on nerves or muscles, while even fewer have provided detailed information about bones and cartilage. This study compares skeletal tissue structures of original and regenerated limbs with respect to tissue level histology. Histological serial sections of 55 axolotl larvae were generated, including 29 limbs that were severed by conspecifics, and 26 that were subject to targeted amputations. Amputations were executed in several larval stages (48, 52, and 53) and at different limb positions (humeral midshaft, above the mesopod). In addition, 3D reconstructions were prepared based on X-ray microtomography scans. The results demonstrate that regenerated forelimbs show a diversity of limb and digit abnormalities as a result of imperfect regeneration. Furthermore, abnormalities were more severe and more frequent in regenerated forelimbs caused by natural bites as compared with regenerated forelimbs after amputation. The results indicate that abnormalities occur frequently after regeneration in larval axolotls contradicting the notion of regeneration generally resulting in perfect limbs.

description: ArchivesSpace is enjoying increasing adoption among archives and special collections units as a collection management system. Its API supports a variety of metadata exports, making it a tempting place for archives engaged with digitization and digital repository management efforts to create and manage metadata for those projects. While the API is powerful, the differences in exports among the various content modules can make building this shared metadata infrastructure difficult, especially in a hosted environment. This talk will focus on efforts at the University of Denver Libraries to build metadata pipelines connecting ArchivesSpace to other data repositories, particularly our XTF finding aid database and our Islandora-based institutional repository. Challenges we encountered along the way, successes, and ongoing thorns in our side will be addressed. An objective of this talk is to start, or contribute to, a conversation among other ArchivesSpace institutions about how we can improve its support for repository initiatives in archives and special collections.

description: Over the past few years, the DSpace project has made great strides towards establishing a longer term roadmap. In 2013, we held a series of “Vision Discussions” to begin brainstorming the vision for DSpace's future. This resulted in a high level Vision Document, as well as a community survey of needs and uses cases to achieve that vision. In 2014, we analyzed data from that community survey (into a very “rough” high-level plan), and the DSpace Community Advisory Team began to flesh out more detailed Use Cases that DSpace should strive to achieve. In 2015, in conjunction with the new DSpace Steering Group and Leadership Group, we are now working towards drafting a longer term RoadMap. The goal of this RoadMap would be to attempt to schedule out a clear plan for achieving the most common community use cases, while also pointing out opportunities for institutions to collaborate on additional features or needs. This session will summarize path we’ve taken towards achieving this long term Roadmap, as well as introduce an early draft of the long term Roadmap for community feedback. There will be an opportunity for open discussion / Q&A during this session.

For this task the SIENNA partners searched for documents which could give normative guidance (excluding legislation) for stakeholders in human enhancement. Three kinds of documents were searched for in different EU countries and internationally: professional ethics codes; documents from ethics advisory groups; and guidance documents on how to write research ethics protocols in different EU countries and internationally. Furthermore, representatives of research ethics committees were asked for the following information in an online survey: − to what extent are they aware of human enhancement technologies and ethical issues associated with them; and − how do they currently approach these issues and do they have plans to more explicitly feature them.

Electronic theses and dissertations

description: Electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) are one of the major content types in the open repositories worldwide. Although green Open Access and research data have been receiving more widespread attention in recent years, many repositories have actually been far more successful with ETDs. The work on ETDs started out in many institutions in the late 1990s, before the development of the current repository software platforms. In a way this has been a parallel movement happening at the same time with the article-oriented Open Access movement, although many of the same people have been involved in both fields. In Finland theses and dissertations currently account for more than two thirds of all repository content. The adoption of repository software platforms for the management of these materials has been a success story, which has had a large influence on the public visibility of these materials and the processes associated with them.

During these 10 years, the repository has also evolved to support the needs of funders and national assessment exercises (UK REF2014) and been nimble enough to implement new trends like altmetrics. It will look back at early decisions which shaped Enlighten's initial development and enabled it to become an embedded institutional repository service. It will then look forward to its ongoing development as it becomes a suite of linked repositories supporting not only Open Access, theses and research publications but also research data, digital collections, dissertations and even Tweets. It will draw out lessons for its past success and caveats for its future challenges.

A striking character in the female of this species that does not appear to be mentioned in any of the descriptions, is the high pointed crest on the pygidium. This is perhaps less developed in cribriceps than in quisquiliarius and the present form.

description: Research data management in the visual arts can be seen as complex and diverse with actual research data being tangible and intangible; digital and physical; heterogeneous and infinite; and complex and complicated, it does not always fit into the natural scheme of data management. Therefore the development of policies for arts related data management and systems/infrastructure and training packages should be aware of thinking outside the box, and lending themselves to being more iterative and open to interpretation. With the help of funding from JISC and the AHRC The Glasgow School of Art (GSA) has been able to partner with other arts institutes to look at the concept of RDM in the arts, and develop training packages and toolkits to help support researchers and postgraduate students. The projects were KAPTUR, which ultimately brought about VADS4R, both of which were led by the Centre for Digital Scholarship, a research centre at the University for the Creative Arts.

Year: 2020

description: Purpose of Project: The primary goal of this QI project was to increase referral rates at an urban health clinic by implementing an educational session for staff and the use of a pre-visit checklist to aid the staff in identifying patients who met CRC screening criteria. Methodology: This QI project used a retrospective and prospective chart review to measure the effectiveness of the CRC educational intervention and pre-visit checklist on CRC referrals. In addition, a pre and post questionnaire was administered to the participants immediately before and one month after the implementation of the CRC education and pre-visit checklist. The pre and post questionnaire measured the attitudes of the providers and clinical staff towards CRC screening. Results: As a result of the educational interventional there was an improvement in staffs’ attitudes towards CRC screening. Additionally, there was a 13% increase in CRC referrals given by the clinic one-month post-intervention. However, the use of the pre-visit checklist did not show to be effective due to interruption in the usual workflow.Implications for Practice: The use of MAs to assist the PCPs could increase a practice's ability to provide patients with the education and assistance they need to complete their preventative screening. Providing MAs with education regarding CRC and involving them in screening may increase patient awareness of CRC screening and prevent a missed screening encounter.

description: The Georgetown University Library migrated a collection of 150,000 image records from a legacy Cold Fusion system to the institutional repository (IR). The legacy system allowed faculty to prepare course-related documents with links to relevant images from the collection. The institutional repository accommodated the images and image records very well. The course-specific content was not an appropriate addition to the item records in the IR. During the migration, the university Learning Management System (LMS) was targeted as the home for course-related links to the image item records. This plan leveraged an existing enterprise solution for course-related content. The Georgetown University Scholarly Systems team build an extension to Blackboard to facilitate the creation of links to content in the IR. A "DSpace mash-up tool" was created allowing faculty to search and select items for inclusion into a course document. This project drove the development of a number of useful features within Georgetown's IR that have proven useful for other new collections. The LMS/IR integration had an additional benefit of raising the profile of the IR for faculty and students.

Market segmentation
Digital scholarship

description: We are familiar with market segmentation, the business practice to go after several subsets of the same market, in the belief that the market subsets will total to more than the original undivided market. Sometimes however, the competition is so intense that it puts out of business the product that was formerly the strongest, and the company loses the market entirely. In our institutions, the explosion of research services in what is broadly called ‘digital scholarship’ has spawned programs in the digital humanities, data management, digital publishing, digital forensics, web archiving, online records management, etc. We have different platforms tailored to these efforts. We may be building different standards emerging from disparate practices. Is this a healthy diversity or dangerous competition for scarce resources? Are we in danger of creating an incoherent brand, and competing among ourselves for a small market of digital content creators who cannot between them feed all of our services? I will not posit that we should serve all digital content from one interface, but that we do need to put more effort into seamless connections between systems that will encourage repositories to be a unifying layer, so we do not fail in our preservation mission.

Digital preservation workflows
Archivematica

description: The open repository ecosystem consists of many interlocking systems which satisfy needs at different points in content management workflows, and these differ within and among institutions. Archivematica is a digital preservation system which aims to integrate with existing repository, storage and access systems in order to leverage the resources that institutions have invested towards building their repository over time. The presentation will cover every integration the Archivematica project has completed thus far, including Dspace and DuraCloud, LOCKSS, Islandora/Fedora, Archivists' Toolkit, AccessToMemory (AtoM), CONTENTdm, Arkivum, HP Trim, and OpenStack, as well as ongoing projects with ArchivesSpace, Dataverse, and BitCurator. Each of these projects has had its own set of limitations in scope because of the requirements of the project sponsor and/or the limitations of other system, so in many ways several of them are not, and may never be 'complete' integrations. The discussion will explore what that means and strategies for expanding the functional capabilities of integration work over time. It will address scoping integration workflows and building requirements with limitations on functionality and resources. We will examine how systems can be built and enhanced in ways that accommodate diverse workflows and varied interlocking endpoints.

Euglenes guamensis

description: 2. Euglenes guamensis, new species. Similar in form to E. bifossicollis, but thorax smaller and more strongly transverse, without the prebasal foveae; the puncturation is finer, the coarser hairs more decumbent and not conspicuous, the fine decumbent pubescence exhibiting dark markings on a silvery ground as follows: on thorax an elongate median patch and a smaller spot near each angle; on elytra an irregular transverse band (or three spots united) at basal one fourth, a strongly zigzag transverse band just beyond middle, projecting farthest forward on suture and nearly as far in middle of disk. Antennae.stout (female), joints 4 to 11 of equal thickness, 6 to 10 strongly transverse. Hind femora rather strongly incrassate. Length 1.25 mm. Libugon Farm, Aug. 10, holotype female, swept from unknown tree; Inarajan, May 7, one female; Piti, Oct. 29, swept from bamboo, one female; Agana, May 15, one example, head and prothorax missing; all collected by Swezey. Very close to Xylophilus marquesa.nus Blair (B. P. Bishop Mus., Bull. 98: 290, fig. 1, 1935), but rather smaller with stouter antennae and the dark markings of the elytra differently disposed.

Trusted digital repository
Preservation infrastructure

description: The Digital Repository of Ireland is the national digital repository for Ireland's social and cultural data. The goal of the DRI is to build an interactive trusted digital repository (TDR) by following the Trusted Repository Audit Checklist (TRAC)1 and gaining Data Seal of Approval (DSA) certification. To achieve this, it was necessary to build a preservation infrastructure that could address the requirements of TRAC and the DSA. These include the need to have a robust Archive Information Package (AIP) format, independent replicated and fault tolerant storage pools, georeplicated copies, tape cold storage, integrity testing/auditing, disaster recovery and high standards of systems security . Problems encountered included how to deal with versioning and how to implement a delete policy in a preservation infrastructure. Here we present some of our experiences as a guide to others developing a preservation infrastructure.
Benefits of a continuing education module to enhance New Jersey primary care providers' attitudes about recommending medical marijuana rather than prescribing opioids to patients with chronic pain
Creators: name: Patel, Shruti
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Purpose of Project: The purpose of this study was to analyze a change in New Jersey primary care providers’ attitudes towards recommending medical marijuana rather than prescribing opioids for chronic pain after reviewing a continuing education module. Methodology: A continuing education module on the uses of medical marijuana for chronic pain was created and distributed throughout Rutgers University. A pre/post-test was used to measure the change in primary care providers' attitudes on the uses of medical marijuana. The pre-test and post-test each contained ten identical questions and these tests were administered at the beginning and the conclusion of the educational module. Results: The study concluded with a total of 29 participants out of 328 individuals that were invited to participate in this study. The sample size of the study represents 48% of the 60 participants initially pursued. Out of the 29 participants, 21 identified their specialty as primary care/internal medicine. The paired t-test conducted on the 21 participants who identified their specialty as primary care/internal medicine resulted in a two-tailed p-value of 1.4955E-05 with an alpha value of 0.05. Given that the p-value is less than the chosen alpha, the null hypothesis is rejected and the data is accepted as statistically significant. The results imply that providing a continuing education module to New Jersey primary care providers on the uses of medical marijuana for chronic pain enhances their attitudes on recommending medical marijuana rather than prescribing opioids to patients with chronic pain. The paired t-test conducted for all 29 participants showed a two-tailed p-value of 2.965E-06 with an alpha value of 0.05. Given that the p-value is less than the chosen alpha, the null hypothesis is rejected and the data is accepted as statistically significant. The results imply that the continuing education module not only increases confidence in primary care/internal medicine specialties, but is effective among a broad range of specialties.Implications for Practice: With increased confidence, primary care providers will have the ability to talk with their patients about the uses of medical marijuana as well as answer any questions that their patients may have. This module can lead to a better quality of care in patients who suffer from chronic pain who are receiving inadequate relief from their current pain regiments. It is important that modules such as the one presented in this study be provided to medical professionals not only in their place of work but also in the academic settings. By expanding the knowledge on the uses of medical marijuana, a practical alternative to opioids can be more broadly introduced within the healthcare industry with the potential to decrease the economic burden caused by the opioid epidemic.

Open access

description: Research data management (RDM) for open access (OA) involves maintaining, preserving and adding value to research data throughout its lifecycle. OA to data and research outputs in the visual arts is complex due to the non-standard nature of visual arts research and the practiced based approaches to research adopted. So how can visual artists comply with the ever-changing open access policies and funder requirements for open access, and suitably manage their “stuff” – a way that data in the arts can defined? This paper aims to highlight the complexities of data management in the visual arts, the management of one’s “stuff”, and relate this to the issues surrounding open access of data and data preservation.
