description: The present study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of two methods of empathy training. The first method followed a more didactic approach with emphasis upon cognitive pre­structuring, psychological insight, and discrimination training. The model assumes that it is specificity of focus which is the potent variable in the teaching of empathy. The second method was based upon the assumption that practice in addition to specific cog­nitive focus would be necessary for successful training. The following four measures were administered to a sample of ninety first-year students at Mount Royal College in Calgary and Red Deer College in Red Deer: the two parallel forms of the Empathy Subscale of the Barrett-Lennard Relationship Inventory (OE--Objective Empathy, SE--Subjective Empathy), the Communications Knowledge Test (CKT), the Interpersonal Relationship Rating Scale (IRRS), and a Satisfaction Questionnaire. The sample was divided into four groups, each of which was subjected to an experimental treatment as follows: 1. Treatment Group (E₁) consisting of eight males and ten females received four 2-hour session of didactic training. 2. Treatment Group (E₂) consisting of eight males and sixteen females received four 2-hour sessions of didactic training and three additional 2-hour sessions of experiential training adapted from methods developed by Carkhuff and Kagan. 3. Control Group (C₁) consisting of one male and thirty-two females received no training but was tested at the same time as E₁. 4. Control Group (C₂) consisting of one male and thirty-two females received no training but was tested at the same time as E₂. The statistical procedure used to test for significant differences between the experimental groups and the control groups was an analysis of covariance. In addition, two correlational analyses were performed to assess the degree of relationship between the measures used. Little evidence was found to support the notion that a sig­nificant relationship exists between the individual measures. However, the combined pretest effects were significantly related to a global index of interpersonal attitudes and behaviors as measured by the IRRS, to a cognitive understanding of basic communicational concepts as measured by the CKT, and perhaps to self ratings of empathic ability as measured by the SE. These measures in turn appear to have little utility in predicting objectively rated empathy as measured by the OE. It was concluded that this study failed to confirm the effectiveness of either a purely didactic or a combined didactic and experiential approach to the training of empathy.

description: An UV-VIS polarization Lidar has been designed and specified for aerosols monitoring in the troposphere, showing the ability to precisely address low particle depolarization ratios, in the range of a few percents. Non-spherical particle backscattering coefficients as low as 5 {\times} 10-8 m-1.sr-1 have been measured and the particle depolarization ratio detection limit is 0.6 %. This achievement is based on a well-designed detector with laser-specified optical components (polarizers, dichroic beamsplitters) summarized in a synthetic detector transfer matrix. Hence, systematic biases are drastically minimized. The detector matrix being diagonal, robust polarization calibration has been achieved under real atmospheric conditions. This UV-VIS polarization detector measures particle depolarization ratios over two orders of magnitude, from 0.6 up to 40 %, which is new, especially in the UV where molecular scattering is strong. Hence, a calibrated UV polarization-resolved time-altitude map is proposed for urban and free tropospheric aerosols up to 4 kilometres altitude, which is also new. These sensitive and accurate UV-VIS polarization-resolved measurements enhance the spatial and time evolution of non-spherical tropospheric particles, even in urban polluted areas. This study shows the capability of polarization-resolved laser UV-VIS spectroscopy to specifically address the light backscattering by spherical and non-spherical tropospheric aerosols.

description: Streptococcus mutans ist ein oraler Krankheitserreger, der für die Entstehung des Zahnkaries bei Menschen verantwortlich ist. Die pathogenen Eigenschaften von S. mutans sind eng mit seiner Fähigkeit zur Biofilmbildung verbunden. Carolacton, ein neu identifizierter Sekundärmetabolit zeigt inhibierende Wirkung auf das Wachstum des Biofilms von S. mutans. Ein systembiologischer Ansatz wurde angewendet, um mittels Reverse Engineering aus den zeitaufgelösten Transkriptom-Daten in Kombination mit Transkriptionsfaktor-Bindungsmotifs-daten sowie experimentelle Validierungen die angestrebte Konstruktion des regulatorischen Transkriptionsnetzwerks zu realisieren. Die Deletion des Transkriptionsregulators cysR, der die höchste Konnektivität unter den identifizierten regulatorischen Netzwerkknoten aufwies, führte zu einem Mutant, auf den Carolacton keine Wirkung mehr zeigte.
description: Streptococcus mutans is a biofilm forming oral pathogen primarily responsible for causing human dental caries. To infer the underlying network mediating the growth inhibitory effect of a newly identified secondary metabolite carolacton on S. mutans biofilms, the transcriptional regulatory response network (TRRN) of S. mutans biofilms upon carolacton treatment was constructed using a systems biology approach combining time-resolved transcriptomic data, reverse engineering, transcription factor binding sites, and experimental validation. From the inferred TRRN, predicted transcriptional regulatory interactions were confirmed using interaction studies. Sensitivity testing of deletion mutants of key regulators from the predicted network identified the cysteine metabolism regulator CysR as being essential for the response of S. mutans biofilms to carolacton.

description: Discovering a Higgs boson at the LHC will address a major outstanding issue in particle physics but will also raise many new questions. A concerted effort to determine the couplings of this new state to other Standard Model fields will be of critical importance. Precise knowledge of these couplings can serve as a powerful probe of new physics, and will be needed in attempts to accommodate such a new boson within specific models. In this paper, we present a method for constraining these couplings in a model-independent way, focusing primarily on an exclusive analysis of the gamma gamma final state. We demonstrate the discriminating power of fully exclusive analyses, and discuss ways in which information can be shared between experimentalists and theorists in order to facilitate collaboration in the task of establishing the true origins of any new physics discovered at the LHC.

A mutation screen of NR2E1 in patients with aniridia, Peters' anomaly and related eye disorders
Creators: name: Borrie, Adrienne E.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Aniridia is a rare genetic panocular (whole eye) disorder which, for the majority of cases, is caused by mutations or chromosomal rearrangements involving paired box gene 6 (PAX6). Peters’ anomaly (PA), also a genetic eye disorder, has also been found to be associated with mutations in PAX6, and also in FOXC1, PITX2, and CYP1B1. However, in approximately 20% of patients who have aniridia and 75% of patients with PA, no mutation has been found in PAX6, or other genes involved these eye disorders, and for these patients, their genetic mutation is unknown. This precludes these patients from genetic testing and thus, from gaining the benefits from genetic counseling and early medical interventions. My hypothesis was that patients who have aniridia, Peters’ anomaly or related eye disorders, for which genetic cause is unknown, have mutations in NR2E1. The purpose of this thesis was to study patients with aniridia, Peters’ anomaly, and related eye disorders in order to identify mutations in a novel candidate gene, NR2E1. Here, the first germline amino acid change was identified in the NR2E1 gene in a patient with Peters’ anomaly and his mother, and not found in 392 control subjects. The identification of an amino acid variant in NR2E1 is significant as it supports the hypothesis that NR2E1 is a regulator of eye development in humans and has implications for the gene in the development of eye disorders. If future analysis leads to the identification of NR2E1 mutations in additional patients, it will allow patients with eye disorders of otherwise unknown genetic etiology to receive the benefits of modern genetic medicine and genetic counseling. This future work endeavors to provide the scientific and medical community with a greater depth of knowledge of the role of NR2E1 in genetic eye disorders.
SPECTRAL ANALYSIS OF TOARCIAN SEDIMENTS FROM THE VALDORBIA SECTION (UMBRIA-MARCHE APENNINES): THE ASTRONOMICAL INPUT IN THE  FORAMINIFERAL RECORD

description: Toarcian sections studied mainly in Europe have revealed the incidence of Milankovitch forcing with a well-developed, highly stable, 405 ky component of eccentricity, a short-term eccentricity of ~100 kyr, the cycle of obliquity ~36 kyr, and the precession signal at ~21 kyr. Cyclostratigraphic analysis of the Toarcian succession at the Valdorbia section (Umbria-Marche Apennines) was conducted based on time-series of foraminiferal assemblages. Well-developed cyclic patterns were obtained, with several significant cycles corresponding to thicknesses of 3.8-4.1 m / 5.8-6.3 m / 8.2 m / 10.4 m. Comparison with previous studies at the Valdorbia section led us to interpret the cycle of ~4 m as directly related with the short-term eccentricity (95-105 kyr). The rest of the cycles could be assigned to a periodicity of ~140-160 kyr, ~200 kyr and ~250 kyr, and interpreted as indirect signals of the long-term eccentricity, obliquity and precession, whose record would be impeded by the incompleteness of the studied succession and the sampling interval. Studied components in the foraminiferal assemblage show variable cyclostratigraphic patterns, allowing for a differentiation of groups based on similar registered cycles. These groups reveal different responses by the foraminiferal assemblage, associated with particular requirements, to the palaeoenvironmental changes of Milankovitch origin.

The successful loading of aerogel matrices with omega-3 fatty acid-rich fish oil served as an corresponding application example. In addition, an important process step in aerogel production, the supercritical CO2 drying, was systematically optimized using a developed predictive mass transport model. A new dimensionless number allows a rational selection of the drying parameters for an optimal process.

description: Geographic concentration and disproportionality indices for 4 select fisheries in the Northeast region are constructed and examined with generalized Theil indices of geographic disproportionality. Fishing activity is alternatively measured by using monetary value and weight quantities. We use weighted relative indices to describe changes in the landing locations of individual fisheries relative to the broader fishing industry. We use weighted absolute indices to describe changes in the landing locations of individual fisheries relative to the uniform distribution across ports. These methods can be straightforwardly applied to other fisheries to describe geographic disproportionality and concentration.
Graphene nanoribbons subject to gentle bends

description: Since graphene nanoribbons are thin and flimsy, they need support. Support gives firm ground for applications, and adhesion holds ribbons flat, although not necessarily straight: ribbons with high aspect ratio are prone to bend. The effects of bending on ribbons' electronic properties, however, are unknown. Therefore, this article examines the electromechanics of planar and gently bent graphene nanoribbons. Simulations with density-functional tight-binding and revised periodic boundary conditions show that gentle bends in armchair ribbons can cause significant widening or narrowing of energy gaps. Moreover, in zigzag ribbons sizeable energy gaps can be opened due to axial symmetry breaking, even without magnetism. These results infer that, in the electronic measurements of supported ribbons, such bends must be heeded.

description: (abridged) The Super-Earth candidate GL 581 d is the first potentially habitable extrasolar planet. Therefore, GL 581 d is used to illustrate a hypothetical detailed spectroscopic characterization of such planets. Atmospheric profiles from 1D radiative-convective model scenarios of GL 581 d were used to calculate high-resolution synthetic spectra. From the spectra, signal-to-noise ratios were calculated for a telescope such as the planned James Webb Space Telescope. The presence of the model atmospheres could be clearly inferred from the calculated synthetic spectra due to strong water and carbon dioxide absorption bands. Surface temperatures could be inferred for model scenarios with optically thin spectral windows. Dense, CO2-rich scenarios did not allow for the characterization of surface temperatures and to assess habitability. Degeneracies between CO2 concentration and surface pressure further complicated the interpretation of the calculated spectra, hence the determination of atmospheric conditions. Still, inferring approximative CO2 concentrations and surface pressures would be possible. In practice, detecting atmospheric signals is challenging. The SNR for a single transit was only larger than unity in some near-IR bands for transmission spectroscopy. Most interestingly, the false-positive detection of biomarker candidates such as methane and ozone could be possible in low resolution spectra due to the presence of CO2 absorption bands which overlap with biomarker spectral bands. This can be avoided however by observing all main CO2 IR bands instead of concentrating on, e.g., the 4.3 or 15 micron bands only. Furthermore, a masking of ozone signatures by CO2 absorption bands is shown to be possible. Simulations imply that such a false-negative detection of ozone would be possible even for rather large ozone concentrations of up to 1E-5.

description: We present a simple analytical approach to study anharmonic effects in single layer, bilayer, and multilayer graphene. The coupling between in plane and out of plane modes leads to negative Grüneisen coefficients and negative thermal expansion. The value of the thermal expansion coefficient depends on the coupling to the substrate. The bending rigidity in bilayer graphene shows a crossover between a long wavelength regime where its value is determined by the in plane elastic properties and a short wavelength regime where its value approaches twice that of a single layer.

description: Paper prepared for the Annual IMISCOE Conference, Prague Objective: Examine why immigrants are less likely to vote. Methods: A new representative dataset on the political participation of immigrants in the 2015 municipal elections in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland is presented. It draws on questions from the Swiss Electoral Studies (Selects) and is enriched with questions relevant to immigrant origin. Logistic regression analysis with predicted probabilities is used to predict electoral participation. Results: Despite having the right to vote, most immigrant groups are less likely to vote than the majority population. Four explanations are tested for this gap in political participation: differences in social origin, political engagement, civic integration and networks, as well as socialization. Individually, all these explanations are associated with differences in political participation, but when all are tested at once, socialization ceases to be statistically significant. Conclusion: While it cannot account for the entirety of differences, social origin accounts for a large part of the different probabilities to vote between nationalities.
Dephasing and Hyperfine Interaction in Carbon Nanotubes Double Quantum Dots: The Clean Limit

description: We consider theoretically ${}^{13}$C-hyperfine interaction induced dephasing in carbon nanotubes double quantum dots with curvature induced spin-orbit coupling. For two electrons initially occupying a single dot, we calculate the average return probability after separation into the two dots, which have random nuclear-spin configurations. We focus on the long time saturation value of the return probability, $P_\infty$. Because of the valley degree of freedom, the analysis is more complex than in, for example, GaAs quantum dots, which have two distinct $P_\infty$ values depending on the magnetic field. Here the prepared state and the measured state is non-unique because two electrons in the same dot are allowed in six different states. Moreover, for one electron in each dot sixteen states exist and therefore are available for being mixed by the hyperfine field. The return probability experiment is found to be strongly dependent on the prepared state, on the external magnetic field---both Zeeman and orbital effects - and on the spin-orbit splitting. The lowest saturation value, being $P_\infty$=1/3, occurs at zero magnetic field for nanotubes with spin-orbit coupling and the initial state being the groundstate, this situation is equivalent to double dots without the valley degree of freedom. In total, we report nine dynamically different situations that give $P_\infty$=1/3, 3/8, 2/5, 1/2 and for valley anti-symmetric prepared states in an axial magnetic field, $P_\infty$=1. When the groundstate is prepared the ratio between the spin-orbit splitting and the Zeeman energy due to a perpendicular magnetic field can tune the effective hyperfine field continuously from being three dimensional to two dimensional giving saturation values from $P_\infty$=1/3 to 3/8.

Schrödinger operators with boundary singularities: Hardy inequality, Pohozaev identity and controllability results
Creators: name: Cazacu, Cristian
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Functional Analysis (math.FA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The aim of this paper is two folded. Firstly, we study the validity of the Pohozaev-type identity for the Schrödinger operator $$A_\la:=-\D -\frac{\la}{|x|^2}, \q \la\in \rr,$$ in the situation where the origin is located on the boundary of a smooth domain $Ω\subset \rr^N$, $N\geq 1$. The problem we address is very much related to optimal Hardy-Poincaré inequality with boundary singularities which has been investigated in the recent past in various papers. In view of that, the proper functional framework is described and explained. Secondly, we apply the Pohozaev identity not only to study semi-linear elliptic equations but also to derive the method of multipliers in order to study the exact boundary controllability of the wave and Schrödinger equations corresponding to the singular operator $A_\la$. In particular, this complements and extends well known results by Vanconstenoble and Zuazua [34], who discussed the same issue in the case of interior singularity.

Here we will explore the relationship between a model where choices are discrete but opinions are a continuous function (the Continuous Opinions and Discrete Actions, CODA, model) and traditional discrete models. I will show that, when CODA is altered to include reasoning about the influence one agent can have on its own neighbors, agreement and disagreement no longer have the same importance. The limit when an agent considers itself to be more and more influential will be studied and we will see that one recovers discrete dynamics, like those of the Voter model in that limit

Determining the relative amounts of prey in Steller sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus) diet using real-time PCR
Creators: name: Bowles, Ella
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Determining diets of pinnipeds by visually identifying prey remains recovered in faecal samples is challenging because of differences in digestion and passage rates of hard parts. Analyzing the soft matrix of faecal material using DNA-based techniques is an alternative means to identify prey species consumed, but published techniques are largely non-quantitative, which limits their applicability. I developed and validated a real-time PCR technique using species-specific mitochondrial DNA primers to quantify the diets of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus). I first demonstrated that the proportions of prey tissue DNA in mixtures of DNA isolated from four prey species could be estimated within a margin of ~12% of the percent in the mix. These prey species included herring Clupea palasii, eulachon Thaleichthyes pacificus, squid Loligo opalescens and rosethorn rockfish Sebastes helvomaculatus. I then applied real-time PCR to DNA extracted from faecal samples obtained from Steller sea lions that had been fed 11 different combinations of herring, eulachon, squid and Pacific ocean perch rockfish (Sebastes alutus), ranging from 7-75% contributions to a meal mix (by wet weight). The difference between the average percentage estimated by real-time PCR and the percentage of prey consumed was generally less than 12% for all diets fed when percentages of prey consumed were corrected for differences in mtDNA density among the prey items. My findings indicate that real-time PCR can detect the quantity of prey consumed for a variety of complex diets and prey species, including cephalopods and fish.

description: We present a combined study of the angle-resolved-photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and quantum Monte Carlo simulations to propose a novel polaronic metallic state in underdoped cuprates. An approximation scheme is proposed to represent underdoped cuprates away from 1/2 filling, replacing the many-body Hamiltonian by that of a single polaron with effective electron-phonon interaction (EPI), that successfully explains many puzzles such as a large momentum-dependent dichotomy between nodal and anti-nodal directions, and an unconventional doping dependence of ARPES in the underdoped region.

Predicting service employee incivility toward customers : the roles of employee boredom, emotional exhaustion, and organizational identification
Creators: name: Walker, David Douglas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Workplace incivility, defined as low-intensity deviant and aggressive behaviors that violate workplace norms for mutual respect (Andersson & Pearson, 1999) is a pervasive problem in organizations. To date, workplace incivility research has tended to focus on incivility within organizations, such as between co-workers, rather than incivility that crosses organizational boundaries. This dissertation extends the research by examining employee incivility by service employees with potential to harm customers. Examples of employee incivility include employees disrespecting and not listening to customers. The primary goal of this research is to explore why service employees can be uncivil toward customers, labeled employee incivility. Specifically, I focused on customers mistreating employees as a determinant of employee incivility such as asking aggressive questions and ignoring instructions. In addition, I examined five theoretically derived explanations for the relationship between customer incivility and employee incivility: employee negative affect, job boredom, organizational identification, organizational disidentification and emotional exhaustion. A secondary goal of this research was to investigate the relationship between uncivil employee behavior and service employee performance. In addition, this research examined uncivil events, rather than overall employee evaluations of incivility at work. Uncivil events, or specific occurrences of incivility by customers were argued to predict instances of uncivil behavior by employees towards customers. This dissertation is one of the first studies to examine workplace incivility at this level of analysis. Using a field study of contact center service employees and a recorded sample of their interactions with customers (N = 68 for employees, N = 641 for interactions) this study found that employee incivility was positively related to customer incivility in both interactions and across employees. Service employees who experience higher (vs. lower) levels of incivility from customers directed more uncivil behaviors toward customers. In addition, both employee job boredom and emotional exhaustion were positively related to uncivil employee behaviors towards customers. The proposed explanations (mediators) for the relationship between customer incivility and employee incivility were not supported. Finally, employee incivility was negatively related to service employee performance.

description: The number of Sensor Observation Service (SOS) instances available online has been increasing in the last few years. The SOS specification standardises interfaces and data formats for exchanging sensor-related in-formation between information providers and consumers. SOS in conjunction with other specifications in the Sensor Web Enablement initiative, at-tempts to realise the Sensor Web vision, a worldwide system where sensor networks of any kind are interconnected. In this paper we present an empirical study of actual instances of servers implementing SOS. The study focuses mostly in which parts of the specification are more frequently included in real implementations, and how exchanged messages follows the structure defined by XML Schema files. Our findings can be of practical use when implementing servers and clients based on the SOS specification, as they can be optimized for common scenarios.

description: In order to improve the reliability of diagnosis of nasal breathing disorders, aerodynamic properties have to be analyzed through experiments based on 3D models. The surface properties of the prepared respective 3D models using fused deposition modeling (FDM) should match those of native nasal cavities, thus representing their normal state and typical pathologies. In this work, we validated the smoothing of dual extruded 3D printed samples of PLA (polylactide) and PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) using the solvent TFE (trifluoroethanol). The smoothing was conducted in vapour and liquid phases of TFE. Before and after treatment of the samples in liquid and vapour phases of TFE, mass and surface roughness analysis were performed. The results of this work will help to produce and process a representative model of the human paranasal sinuses, which can be created using CT data from a patient.

description: A two-site nanostructure (e.g, a "molecule") bridging two conducting leads and connected to a phonon bath is considered. The two relevant levels closest to the Fermi energy are connected each to its lead. The leads have slightly different temperatures and chemical potentials and the nanos- tructure is also coupled to a thermal (third) phonon bath. The 3 x 3 linear transport ("Onsager") matrix is evaluated, along with the ensuing new figure of merit, and found to be very favorable for thermoelectric energy conversion.
