title: "Dialogue is Not a Chaste Event." Comments by Paulo Freire on Issues in Participatory Research
Creators: name: Jurmo, Paul
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 1985
Subjects: subject: Education

description: This booklet offers a candid glimpse of Paulo Freire's thought in action as he reacts to specific issues raised in a field experience. The case is one of a nonformal education program in Africa that includes an attempt to encourage participation of villagers and lower level staff members in evaluating and planning the project. This effort runs into problems which in turn pose questions for the practitioner. How do you deal with a lack of interest in participation on the part of villagers or staff? What about the resistance of authorities to real participation and its implications? How ethical is it for outsiders to intervene in the affairs of others? As a project member describes the program setting adn poses such dilemmas which faced them, Freire responds to each one. His reflections typically start with conceptual or interpretive dimensions of the issue but then proceed to the practical level of "what to do?" The Paulo-Paul exchange, which is our concern here, was therefore both structured and open. We wanted to know not only what Freire had to say about some troubling issues, but also how he would go about advising the practitioner. So as the overall inquiry was a joint one, in this one-on-one exchange Freire in effect was given points to start from and come back to in his own way. In the process he touched upon a number of sub-topics: Meaning of dialogue and the act of knowing Indigenous ways of knowing Directiveness and manipulation Why those "at the top" resist dialogue Tactics in the context of strategy The educator as politician Motives for going to another culture Unlearning about another culture The need to listen Here, the presentation of the case and specific issues by Paul Jurmo are paraphrased and set in italics. Excerpts of the comments by Paulo Freire are basically the words and sequence of a transcript from a tape of the class session. Occasionally connecting words have been added to clarify the flow, and in this sense Freire's comments are also paraphrased. For those who are not familliar with the writings by Freire, or would be interested in selected publications related to Freire's thought, the bibliography included at the end of this booklet should prove useful.

description: This thesis is about the formation and evolution of attitudes, expectations and presuppositions of the international community. It deals with the impact that the United Nations Security Council has on this formation and evolution and the ways in which these developments may be analyzed. It also explores in what ways the realization and analysis of this relationship between the international community and the Security Council can enhance Peace Studies, and the understanding of conflict formation. The ultimate aim of the study is to demonstrate that the different approaches of the S-CAR and MEDAC programs, when combined, not only support one another, but are mutually aggrandizing. The declared purpose of the United Nations: [T]o maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace; To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace; To achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion; and To be a center for harmonizing the actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends. The UN provides the Security Council the authority and legitimacy to fulfill the following mandate in Chapter V Article 24 of the UN Charter: In order to ensure prompt and effective action by the United Nations, its members confer on the Security Council primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security, and agree that in carrying out its duties under this responsibility the Security Council act on their behalf. In discharging these duties the Security Council shall act in accordance with the Purposes and Principles of the United Nations.

description: Contemporary sports heroes are all but extinct. Little research currently exists regarding the effect of media-constructed heroism on historical and modern day athletes, but this research depicts the seeming extinction of the ultimate athletic hero. Due in large part to the ever-changing quantity and quality of sports news coverage, two of the sports industry's most recognizable athletes—Tiger Woods and Babe Ruth—have strikingly different reputations among the general population. This research uses a combination of cluster sampling and convenience sampling, as every article within a given constraint – namely date and media outlets – is used to make inferences about the tone and style of coverage of two "heroic" athletes throughout their illustrious careers. This research focuses specifically on the media coverage of Ruth and Woods during some of the highest and lowest points in their respective careers. It demonstrates a change in attitude and focus of sport media from Ruth's first World Series championship in the early twentieth century through Woods's resurgence to the top of the leaderboard in the 2011 Chevron World Challenge.

description: GLOBES is a Competency-Based Learning Module for Enhancing Medical Students Understanding, Attitudes and Actions towards One Health. The health of humans, animals, and the environment is closely linked, forming what we refer to as the "One Health" concept. This idea stresses that we cannot look at these systems in isolation; they are deeply intertwined. Human health is reliant on clean air, safe water, and healthy food—resources that come from the environment. Similarly, animals, whether domesticated or wild, share our ecosystems, and often play a role in spreading diseases to humans, especially when their health is compromised. The "GLOBES" module integrates 20 essential competencies for medical and other health professions students to understand and advocate for the concept of One Health

description: Withholding prognosis information was associated with anxiety and difficulty with patient and family communication. Singapore, Chinese and Japanese patients prefer to be informed of cancer diagnosis and disease progression. Physicians from all three Asian cultures frequently delivered prognosis information to the families and expect the family to make a decision about prognosis disclosure. The patient family groups preferred to hear the information together. The family group is more important than the individual patient. The concept of family centered decision-making being part of the “ principle of autonomy exists, but it is interpreted as concepts of the family rather than self- determination.” Patients expected the physician to provide emotional support to the family.

subject: Runoff
subject: HEC_HMS

description: The simulation of surface runoff at the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, located in southeast Virginia and northeast North Carolina, is modeled on a digital elevation model (DEM) with 2 meter post spacing. An application of the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) hydrological model as implemented through the Hydrologic Engineering Center’s Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) is used to predict how the basin might respond to rainfall events, including measures of the quantity of surface runoff, detention, and peak runoff. Validation of the model is conducted by comparing results to streamgage readings at the swamp. Accuracy is greatly limited by an unknown configuration of water control structures at the swamp and programmed outflow through a lock and dam system. But a detailed configuration of streams and watershed units is achieved.

description: http://tbf.coe.wayne.edu/jmasm/
description: A spatial analytic methodology incorporating true locations is demonstrated using Monte Carlo simulations as a complement to current psychometric and quality of life indices for measuring community inclusion. Moran 'sl,a measure of spatial autocorrelation, is used to determine spatial dependencies in housing patterns for multiple variables, including family/friends involvement in future planning, home size, and earned income. Simulations revealed no significant spatial autocorrelation, which is a socially desirable result for housing locations for people with disabilities. Assessing the absence of clustering provides a promising methodology for measuring community inclusion.
title: An Evaluation of the Youth Assessment and Screening Instrument (YASI): Examining Alignment between YASI-Based Sentencing Recommendations and Sentencing, As Well As the Occurrence of Racial Disproportionalities
Creators: name: Davis, Lynnea
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Risk assessment
subject: Disproportionality
subject: Sentence recommendations
subject: Youth legal system

description: Many criminal legal agencies consider the use of validated risk and needs assessments (RNAs) best practice (Latessa & Lovins, 2010). Over the last few years, youth court agencies across the country began to adopt pre-sentence RNAs. Probation officers (POs) typically conduct pre-sentence RNAs in between adjudication and sentencing. POs present judges with sentencing recommendations for youths based on their YASI scores. However, judges have discretion in deciding whether to order exactly what was recommended or not to. Despite the widespread use of pre-sentence RNAs, little research examines how judges use pre-sentence reports. The primary goal of this thesis is to examine how judges’ sentencing decisions align with the sentencing recommendations arising from pre-sentence RNAs, as well as whether factors such as race influence judges’ decisions to order less punishment, more punishment, or the exact sentence(s) recommended. This project uses two years of data from a youth court agency located in Northern Virginia that uses a pre-sentence RNA to inform sentencing decisions. Results suggest that the judges strictly adhered to sentencing recommendations most of the time. However, when judges deviated from sentencing recommendations, they tended to order more punishment rather than less punishment. No significant race differences in alignment between recommendations and sentencing were found. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.

description: Bacillary dysentery and acute gastroenteritis caused by infection of Shigella species are major public health burden in India and its neighboring countries. Emergence of antimicrobial resistance threatens to render current treatments ineffective. The current study was attempted to investigate the effect of biofield treatment on Shigella boydii (S. boydii) with respect of antimicrobial susceptibility assay, biochemical characteristics and biotyping. The American Type Culture Collection (ATCC 9207) strain of S. boydii was used in this experiment. The study was conducted in revived and lyophilized state of S. boydii. Both revived (Group; Gr. II) and lyophilized (Gr. III) strain of S. boydii were subjected to Mr. Trivedi’s biofield treatment. Gr. II was assessed on day 5 and day 10, while Gr. III on day 10 with respect to control (Gr. I). Sensitivity pattern of amoxicillin/k-clavulanate was improved from intermediate (I) to susceptible (S) with correspond to MIC value was also reduced by two folds (16/8 to ≤ 8/4 μg/mL) in both the treated groups as compared to control. The antimicrobial susceptibility of S. boydii showed 15% alteration in Gr. II on day 5, while significant (40%) alteration was found on day 10 as compared to control. The MIC values of antimicrobials for S. boydii also showed 12.50% alteration in Gr. II on day 5 while, significant alteration (59.38%) of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value was found in Gr. II on day 10 as compared to control. It was observed that overall 69.70% biochemical reactions were changed in which 66.67% alteration was found in Gr. II on day 10 with respect to control. Moreover, biotype numbers were changed in all the treated groups without alteration of organism as compared to control. These results suggested that biofield treatment had significant impact on S. boydii in Gr. II on day 10 with respect to antimicrobial susceptibility, MIC and biochemical reactions pattern.

Bv8 mediates myeloid cell migration and enhances malignancy of colorectal cancer
Creators: name: Li, Xiaomeng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most predominant malignancy in the world. Although the importance of immune system in cancer development has been well established, the underlying mechanisms remain to be investigated further. My PhD project studied a novel protein prokineticin 2 (Prok2, also known as Bv8) as a key pro-tumoural factor in CRC progression in in vitro and ex vivo settings. Immunostaining of human samples collected from cancer patients indicated myeloid cell infiltration (especially neutrophils) and Bv8 accumulation in colorectal tumour tissue. Bv8 shows chemotactic effects on human neutrophils through real-time chemotaxis assay, with neutrophils presenting a Bv8 gradient-dependent movement pattern. CRC cells produced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that were triggered by myeloid cells and Bv8. ROS and VEGF acted as pro-angiogenesis buffer in myeloid cell-infiltrated CRC microenvironment. Moreover, leukocytes from studied patients with malignant tumours were more susceptible to produce ROS compared to patients with benign tumours. Myeloid cell or Bv8 enhanced energy consumption of glycolysis ATP and mitochondria ATP of CRC cells. Interestingly, cell-cell interaction between myeloid cells and CRC cells increased CRC cell viability but decreased the viability of myeloid cells (U937 cells). On the other hand, Bv8 showed no effect on cell viability and proliferation of CRC cells. ERK signalling pathway in CRC cells was activated by both Bv8 and co-cultured myeloid cells, indicating its regulatory role in Bv8-induced effects on CRC cells. Further data potentially suggested that Bv8 was negatively regulated in the tumour microenvironment of CRC, being maintained at a delicate level with a maximum pro-tumoural potential. In conclusion, my PhD PhD Thesis Xiaomeng Li 5 project presents the vital roles of Bv8 in myeloid cell infiltration and CRC development, suggesting that Bv8 is a potential therapeutic target for cancer-related immunotherapy.

Creators: name: Jackson, Ruth
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: STEM education
subject: Game design
subject: Math self-efficacy
subject: Middle school
subject: African American

description: Within the past 20 years, the concept of self-efficacy has received considerable attention from educational researchers as they seek to understand student beliefs related to academic activities and academic performance. Recent findings have suggested that sources of self-efficacy differ across race and ethnicity among students. Much more research however, is still needed to further examine this claim. The present study, one of few qualitative studies examining sources of self-efficacy, recruited African American participants from the Game Design @ Mason program and used the Morgan-Jinks Math Self-Efficacy scale to select and interview students. The following research questions were explored: (a) What sources of math self-efficacy do African American students with interests in game design rely upon most? (b) How do sources of self-efficacy differ for students with high math self-efficacy ratings as compared to students with lower math self-efficacy ratings? (c) How do students with high math self-efficacy ratings compare to students with lower math self-efficacy ratings in their preferences for the Game Design @ Mason program? (d) How do students with high math self-efficacy ratings compare to students with lower math self-efficacy ratings in their willingness to share with peers their association to the Game Design @ Mason program? (e) How do female students compare to male students in their descriptions of their sources of math self-efficacy? Results suggest that students primarily relied on mastery experiences and affective states to define their math self-efficacy.

description: Proteus vulgaris (P. vulgaris) is widespread in nature, mainly found in flora of human gastrointestinal tract. The current study was attempted to investigate the effects of Mr. Trivedi’s biofield treatment on lyophilized as well as revived state of P. vulgaris for antimicrobial susceptibility pattern, biochemical characteristics, and biotype. P. vulgaris cells were procured from Micro BioLogics Inc., USA, in sealed pack bearing the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC 33420) number and stored according to the recommended storage protocol until needed for experiments. Lyophilized vial of ATCC strain of P. vulgaris were divided in two parts, Gr. I: control and Gr. II: treatment. Group II was further subdivided into two parts, Gr. IIA and Gr. IIB. Gr. IIA was analysed on day 10. Gr. IIB was stored and analysed on day 143. After retreatment on day 143, the sample was divided into three separate tubes. First, second and third tubes were analysed on day 5, 10 and 15 respectively. All experimental parameters were studied using automated Micro Scan Walk-Away® system. The 16S rDNA sequencing of lyophilized treated sample was carried out to correlate the phylogenetic relationship of P. vulgaris with other bacterial species after treatment. The antimicrobial susceptibility and minimum inhibitory concentration showed 10.71% and 15.63% alteration respectively in treated cells of P. vulgaris as compared to control. It was observed that few biochemical reactions (6%) were altered in the treated groups with respect to control. Moreover, biotype number was substantially changed in treated cells, Gr. IIA (62060406, Proteus penneri) on day 10 as compared to control (62070406; Proteus vulgaris). 16S rDNA analysis showed that the identified sample in this experiment was Proteus vulgaris after biofield treatment. However, the nearest homolog genus-species was found to be Proteus hauseri. The results suggested that biofield treatment has impact on P. vulgaris in lyophilized as well as revived state.

Global distribution and ancient evolution of far-red photosynthesis
Creators: name: Antonaru, Laura Alexandra
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes which have forever changed our planet. In the billions of years of their existence, they have evolved many adaptations to various light conditions. In the last decade, an adaptation was discovered which enables a small range of phylogenetically and morphologically diverse cyanobacteria to photosynthesize into the near-infrared / far-red. It is hypothesized that this complex Far-Red Photoacclimation system (FaRLiP) using a red-shifted chlorophyll (chlorophyll f) provides an evolutionary advantage when in the shade of other photosynthetic organisms. Although remarkable discoveries have been made about the structure and function of this system, its evolutionary history has remained elusive. Also unclear is how widespread FaRLiP is in nature. Both these aspects could clarify the phenotype’s limitations and its potential usefulness for biotechnology applications. My project has combined molecular biology techniques with bioinformatics in order to explore these questions. Microscopy and spectroscopic techniques were also employed to analyze pigments. Resources used included dozens of strains maintained in six culture collections, as well as multiple online public repositories of sequence data. Terabases of data were searched, and gigabases of relevant data were handled, in order to build up-to-date phylogenetic histories not only of far-red-associated genes, but also of a relevant genus, Chroococcidiopsis. The results contradict the initial statement that horizontal gene transfer is mainly responsible for the phenotype’s distribution in distantly related cyanobacteria, but rather strongly support a combination of vertical descent and loss. Far-Red Photoacclimation is an ancient adaptation. Their earliest last common ancestor can be placed in the early Paleoproterozoic, at the start of the age of stromatolites, and may be suspected to have co-evolved with other evolutionary innovations such as thick biofilms. Simpler red-shifted systems, such as the closely-related Low-Light Photoacclimation, may have existed even earlier. At present, FaRLiP appears to be common in microbialites, but is also present in a wide variety of previously-unknown locations such as Antarctic lakes and hyperarid deserts.

description: This thesis describes the work of Jorge E. Bañales, focusing on the conceptual basis for his MFA thesis exhibition Inertia of the Real. Installed in the Gillespie Gallery in the Arts and Design Building at George Mason University, March 26 to April 2, 2021, the exhibition is comprised of five interrelated bodies of works: Inner Loop Outer Loop, Inertia of the Real, Imaginary Symbolic Real, Inertia of the Real Video, and Useless Bodies. Using sound, music, photography, collage, mixed media, video, and writing, and via psychogeography—concentrating mostly on the site of the former Landover Mall in Maryland—the works investigate the mental and physical topography of late capitalism and how the heterotopic and hauntological abandoned suburban space—and more specifically the dilapidated structure that of the mall’s logo, now stripped of its imaginary and symbolic meaning—can activate an experience of the Real.

subject: Harrisonburg

description: UNDERGROUND CITY is a book of poetry about a number of people living in or around Harrisonburg, VA. Told from varying perspectives, but mostly focusing on the life of one James Miller, the book attempts a novelistic approach wherein characters and perspectives are linked together and fade from one to the next based on a sort of plot-based flow, but with ambiguous chronology and narration (it is often not clear who is speaking, at least at first). I had considered titling this book MEN OF HORROR, but I realized that it was more so about one man in particular than it was about men in gen-eral. That being said, much of what this collection focuses on is how men can become corrupted by drug use, violence, toxic love, poverty, trauma, etc. By examining this, I am attempting to highlight part of what haunts American culture today, and the toxic assumptions that Americans have that perpetuate these very problems rather than help-ing them. There is an underlying reading wherein this book, which is about a character named James, could be compared to the Book of James from the bible—but that con-nection is loose. More so I am attempting to take influence from books like Brief Inter-views with Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace, dramatic monologue poems by Edgar Allan Poe, T.S. Elliot, John Berryman, and Robert Browning, as well as work by poets who have written about incarceration, such as Etheridge Knight and Reginald Dwayne Betts, to create a totally fictional book of poetry. The book begins at the end, with James Miller living as a homeless man in Har-risonburg, VA. Then, the rest of the book shows us James’s life and social circle, either directly or indirectly (for instance, it is not said but it is implied that Officer Wilmot may be the police officer who arrests James Miller in one or more of the situations in-volving arrest), and leads toward the final poem, which is in the voice of James Miller, after he has gone to prison. It is not clear when he goes to prison, or what happens after, but it is implied that eventually it results in him leading a homeless lifestyle. Who nar-rates the poem titled “Underground City” is never made clear, but he could either be a rat, or a burglar—either way, the perspective shown in “Underground City” is meant to represent a true evil, whereas, in contrast, the rest of the book argues that James’s evil is more complicated than that, and that much of what makes James “evil” is how society views him, not how he actually is. This calls into question assumptions about drug ad-diction, mental health, poverty, violence, and masculinity that still plague our country today.

subject: Cultural agency

description: This thesis analyzes the role of resilience in refugees when faced with adversity and identifying the strategies or resources used to overcome social and cultural challenges. The ethnographic information came from three separate interviews conducted over Zoom with individuals who previously held refugee status in the United States. All the interviews provided excessive amounts of empirical data that allows for an in-depth analysis of the various factors promoting resilience throughout their lives as refugees. Starting off with their time in a refugee camp before migrating to America and adjusting to a new society, then transitioning to the individual challenges they encountered and finally analyzing their resilience through the myriad resources available to them that allowed them to overcome adversity. Prevalent themes such as a sense of “community” and “cultural awareness” occurred in each interview, establishing a connection to the social challenges of being a refugee in a new society and how a sense of belonging can promote cultural agency re-enforced by their individual resiliency.
