The interaction of personal and shared construct systems : the implications of consensual validation upon commitment in the workplace
Creators: name: Schroeder, Laurie J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Personal construct theory is interfaced with systems theory and organizational behavior theory to provide a theoretical framework for understanding interaction of the individual and the work organization. The concepts describing the individual's relationship with the family contribute the basic understandings to the development of this framework as applied to the work setting. The personal construct system and its function to organize a meaningful experience of reality for the individual is compared with that of the shared construct system and its function to negotiate a common view of reality amongst members of the family and work organization alike. It is proposed in this paper that consensual validation acts as an internal consistency criterion which moderates interaction between personal and shared construct systems. Essentially, consensual validation serves as a self-referent process linking the individual to the work organization. Suggestions are made as to the implications of the individual's experience of consensual validation upon organizational commitment in the workplace.

description: Experiments are carried out with a globally coupled, externally forced population of limit-cycle electrochemical oscillators with an approximately unimodal distribution of heterogeneities. Global coupling induces mutually entrained (at frequency $ω_{1}$) states; periodic forcing produces forced-entrained ($ω_{\mathrm{F}}$) states. As a result of the interaction of mutual and forced entrainment, resonant cluster states occur with equal spacing of frequencies that have discretized frequencies following a resonance rule $ω_{n}\cong nω_{1}-(n-1)ω_{\mathrm{F}}$. Resonance clustering requires an optimal, intermediate global coupling strength; at weak coupling the clusters have smaller sizes and do not strictly follow the resonance rule, while at strong coupling the population behaves similar to a single, giant oscillator.

description: Here we briefly report on results of self-consistent numerical modeling of a differentially rotating force-free magnetosphere of an aligned rotator. We show that differential rotation of the open field line zone is significant for adjusting of the global structure of the magnetosphere to the current density flowing through the polar cap cascades. We argue that for most pulsars stationary cascades in the polar cap can not support stationary force-free configurations of the magnetosphere.

description: The aim of this work was the study of the regulation of PHA biosynthesis in the thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus. The influence of the initial phosphate concentration in polymer production was also investigated. In order to reduce the production cost of PHA in T.thermophilus whey, a cheap industrial by product was used as carbon source. Subsequently the extracellular PHB depolymerase of T. thermophilus was purified. The physicochemical and catalytic properties of the purified enzyme were studied and its gene was identified. Moreover, it has been shown that T. thermophilus is a flagella-motile bacterium. The biochemical properties of flagellin monomers and isolated flagella fibres were studied.

Characteristics of the individual and the transition : mediating factors in the response to infertility
Creators: name: Koropatnick, Stephanie J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Using Schlossberg's (1981) model of adjustment to transitions in adulthood as a framework, an exploratory study was conducted of the factors mediating responses to involuntary primary infertility. Forty-three women and twenty-eight men who were seeking medical attention for infertility concerns at an Alberta Infertility clinic were recruited to complete five standardized self-report instruments and one researcher-designed survey measuring fourteen predictor variables and ten outcome variables. Predictor variables included four Characteristics of the Transition, including: diagnosis, duration, perceived outcome and perceived chances of success, as well as ten Characteristics of the Individual, including: age, sex, race, religion, SES, sex-role identity, self-esteem, locus of control, general health and previous experience with a similar transition. Outcome variables included nine symptoms of distress, including somatization, obsessive compulsiveness, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, paranoidideation and psychoticism. Canonical correlational analyses indicated two significant links between characteristics of the individual and responses to infertility. The first link demonstrated that men and women with high self-esteem, high SES, higher age and an internal locus of control tended to respond to infertility with fewer symptoms of distress overall, scoring particularly low on measures of anger and hostility. The second link described a group of individuals who were among the oldest members of the sample and who reported low self-esteem and an undifferentiated sex-role identity. These men and women appeared to also report heightened feelings of distress overall, with particularly high levels of anxiety and obsessive compulsiveness. From the results, two groups who may be at risk of experiencing difficulties with infertility were identified. They include: Men and women who are recently infertile and have yet to receive a definitive diagnosis and older men and women who demonstrate low self-esteem and a poorly defined self-image. The counselling needs of each group were briefly discussed and recommendations made for possible directions of future research.

description: In designing quantum control, it is generally required to simulate the controlled system evolution with a classical computer. However, computing the time evolution operator can be quite resource-consuming since the total Hamiltonian is often hard to diagonalize. In this paper, we mitigate this issue by substituting the time evolution segments with their Trotter decompositions, which reduces the propagator into a combination of single-qubit operations and fixed-time system evolutions. The resulting procedure can provide substantial speed gain with acceptable costs in the propagator error. As a demonstration, we apply the proposed strategy to improve the efficiency of the gradient ascent pulse engineering algorithm for searching optimal control fields. Furthermore, we show that the higher-order Trotter decompositions can provide efficient Ansätze for the variational quantum algorithm, leading to improved performance in solving the ground-state problem. The strategy presented here is also applicable for many other quantum optimization and simulation tasks.

description: This paper describes opportunities and challenges of using functional data analysis (FDA) for the exploration and analysis of data originating from electronic commerce (eCommerce). We discuss the special data structures that arise in the online environment and why FDA is a natural approach for representing and analyzing such data. The paper reviews several FDA methods and motivates their usefulness in eCommerce research by providing a glimpse into new domain insights that they allow. We argue that the wedding of eCommerce with FDA leads to innovations both in statistical methodology, due to the challenges and complications that arise in eCommerce data, and in online research, by being able to ask (and subsequently answer) new research questions that classical statistical methods are not able to address, and also by expanding on research questions beyond the ones traditionally asked in the offline environment. We describe several applications originating from online transactions which are new to the statistics literature, and point out statistical challenges accompanied by some solutions. We also discuss some promising future directions for joint research efforts between researchers in eCommerce and statistics.

description: This thesis is concerned with the research and analysis of urban green and green network, as the result of a combined morphological development. Important classification systems of urban green places and environmental parameters are introduced and studied using G.I.S, in order to evaluate their contribution in the selection and landscape assessment of major and minor green areas, as components of the green network.The proposed methodology is conducted and tested in a study case in Larisa, a medium size city, where urban development, shrinkage of the green undeveloped areas and the continuous growth of the city core causes a transmutation in the urban network. The scope arises in multiple levels and engages protecting of ecological habitats and natural resources, establishment and planning of new green areas, linkage of natural, agricultural, recreational, historic and cultural areas via green infrastructure, grant of public access through greenway connectors and benefit from the scenic, recreational and imperative opportunities provided therein

description: Our mid-infrared survey of 124 white dwarfs with the Spitzer Space Telescope and the IRAC imager has revealed an infrared excess associated with the white dwarf WD 2115-560 naturally explained by circumstellar dust. This object is the fourth white dwarf observed to have circumstellar dust. All four are DAZ white dwarfs, i.e. they have both photospheric Balmer lines and photospheric metal lines. We discuss these four objects as a class, which we abbreviate "DAZd", where the "d" stands for "dust". Using an optically-thick, geometrically-thin disk model analogous to Saturn's rings, we find that the inner disk edges are at >~0.1 to 0.2 Ro and that the outer disk edges are ~0.3 to 0.6 Ro. This model naturally explains the accretion rates and lifetimes of the detected WD disks and the accretion rates inferred from photospheric metal abundances.

description: To explain the low frequencies of quantum oscillations observed in lightly doped cuprates, we consider the two-dimension Hubbard model supplemented with the perpendicular magnetic field. For large Hubbard repulsions, the electron spectrum is investigated using the cluster perturbation theory. Obtained frequencies of magnetic oscillations at small deviations from half-filling are close to those observed experimentally, $F\approx500$~T. They stem from small Fermi surface pockets located in the nodal regions of the Brillouin zone. The pockets are formed by Fermi arcs and less intensive segments, which make the pockets nearly circular.

description: We present a detailed spectral study of the narrow-line Seyfert~1 galaxy, Markarian~335, using eight epoch observations made between 2013 and 2020 with the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array. The source was variable during this period both in spectral flux and flow geometry. We estimated the height of the Compton cloud from the model fitted parameters for the whole observation period. This allowed us to investigate the underlying physical processes that drive the variability in X-rays. Our model fitted mass varies in a narrow range, between $(2.44\pm0.45-3.04\pm0.56)\times10^{7}M_\odot$, however, given the large error bars, it is consistent with being constant and is in agreement with that known from optical reverberation mapping observations. The disk mass accretion rate reached a maximum of 10\% of the Eddington rate during June 2013. Our study sheds light on mass outflows from the system and also compares different aspects of accretion with X-ray binaries.

description: The charge carrier transport in metal phthallocyanine based disordered thin films has been investigated. Charge carrier mobility in these disordered thin films strongly depends on the electric field and temperature due to hopping conduction. The applicability of two different Gaussian disorder models has been compared and evaluated for charge carrier transport using simple experimental results and based on our extensive analysis, it has been found that spatial and energetic correlation is important in explaining the electrical transport in these organic semiconductors.

description: Herein, we present a canonical form for a natural and necessary generalization of the Lambert W function, natural in that it requires minimal mathematical definitions for this generalization, and necessary in that it provides a means of expressing solutions to a number of physical problems of fundamental nature. In particular, this generalization expresses the exact solutions for general-relativistic self-gravitating 2-body and 3-body systems in one spatial and one time dimension. It also expresses the solution to a previously unknown mathematical link between the lineal gravity problem and the Schroedinger equation.

description: In this paper, we present an approach to deal with the dynamics of the Dirac equation with time-dependent electromagnetic potentials using the fourth-order compact time-splitting method ($S_\text{4c}$). To this purpose, the time-ordering technique for time-dependent Hamiltonians is introduced, so that the influence of the time-dependence could be limited to certain steps which are easy to treat. Actually, in the case of the Dirac equation, it turns out that only those steps involving potentials need to be amended, and the scheme remains efficient, accurate, as well as easy to implement. Numerical examples in 1D and 2D are given to validate the scheme.

It is explained how it is possible to use Universal Jurisdiction, which are the specific crimes that it can target, which are the problems that may occur when a state decides to apply it, if there is a confrontation between Universal Jurisdiction and the International Criminal Court and which are the principles that can homogenize its application in order to minimize problems that may arise. There is also an analysis of the case – precedent for Universal Jurisdiction, the Pinochet Case, and other cases that Spain is trying to judge based in Universal Jurisdiction in order to fight impunity.
The transition for women into a single life
Creators: name: Sutton, Claire Joan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: A qualitative phenomenological paradigm was used to explore the phenomenon of the transition for women into a single life following the termination of their committed relationship. Five women were selected from the Vancouver area to participate i n this study. In-depth personal interviews, which were audiotaped, were conducted with each participant. During these interviews, the women described their transition experience and successful adaptation to a single life . Six common themes emerged from the data using Colaizzi's (1978) method of phenomenological analysis. The results of the study indicated that as the women came to believe in their own self-worth, they rose above intolerable conditions and followed a life path that would continue to enhance their personal growth and strengthen their sense of self-efficacy .

Τα ζώα χωρίστηκαν σε 2 ομάδες των 20 έκαστη. Στην ομάδα Α, στην πειραματικά δημιουργούμενη ρήξη του δωδεκαδακτύλου συρράπτονταν άμεσα μόσχευμα από SIS. Στην ομάδα Β, η συρραφή του μοσχεύματος επί της ρήξης γίνονταν μετά την παρέλευση 6-8 ωρών με σκοπό να δημιουργηθεί περιτινίτιδα.

Το μόσχευμα από S.I.S. κάλυψε πλήρως και στεγανά τη ρήξη του δωδεκαδακτύλου. Η παθολογοανατομική μελέτη έδειξε την προοδευτική ανάπτυξη των χιτώνων του τοιχώματος εοπί του μοσχεύματος. Από τα αποτελέσματα των πειραμάτων φαίνεται πως το εμβάλωμα από S.I.S. θα μπορούσε να χρησιμοποιηθεί με ασφάλεια για την αντιμετώπιση των κακώσεων του δωδεκαδακτύλου στον άνθρωπο
description: In order to evaluate the healing of the 2nd portion of the duodenal wallwith the use of Small Intestinal Submucosa (S.I.S) patch (4-ply SurgiSIS®,ES Soft Tissue Graft 2Χ3, COOK Biotech Inc) we studied 40 Whistar-Albinorats in two groups of 20 animals each. In Group A, we created a small defectin the duodenal wall which was covered immediately with a SurgiSIS®patch. In group B the SurgiSIS® patch was sutured over the defect after 6-8hours, in order to develop peritonitis, mimicking the delayed management ofthe duodenal trauma, which is usual in everyday practice. The animals of bothgroups were sacrificed after 2, 6, 12 and 16 weeks and were examined bothmacroscopicaly and pathologicaly in order to define the degree of coverageof the defect by the patch and the development of new duodenal wall overthe patch. Three animals died postoperatively due to surgical complications. In the remaining 37, as well as the three dead animals, the SurgiSIS® patch coveredand sealed completely the defect of the duodenal wall. Pathologic examinationshowed progressive development of the layers of the duodenal wall overthe patch even from the 2nd week in some of the animals of group A. In theanimals of group B mucosa was developed in the 6th week, probably from thepresence of inflammation due to the peritonitis. In conclusion, the SurgiSIS® patch is both efficient and safe for the management of duodenal trauma

description: The quantum relative entropy is a measure of the distinguishability of two quantum states, and it is a unifying concept in quantum information theory: many information measures such as entropy, conditional entropy, mutual information, and entanglement measures can be realized from it. As such, there has been broad interest in generalizing the notion to further understand its most basic properties, one of which is the data processing inequality. The quantum f-divergence of Petz is one generalization of the quantum relative entropy, and it also leads to other relative entropies, such as the Petz--Renyi relative entropies. In this contribution, I introduce the optimized quantum f-divergence as a related generalization of quantum relative entropy. I prove that it satisfies the data processing inequality, and the method of proof relies upon the operator Jensen inequality, similar to Petz's original approach. Interestingly, the sandwiched Renyi relative entropies are particular examples of the optimized f-divergence. Thus, one benefit of this approach is that there is now a single, unified approach for establishing the data processing inequality for both the Petz--Renyi and sandwiched Renyi relative entropies, for the full range of parameters for which it is known to hold.

description: Radio and $γ$-ray loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) are unique objects to study the formation and evolution of relativistic jets, as they are believed to have high accretion rates and powered by low mass black holes contrary to that known for blazars. However, only about a dozen $γ$-ray detected NLS1s ($γ$-NLS1s) are known to date and all of them are at $z\le1$. Here, we report the identification of a new $γ$-ray emitting NLS1 TXS 1206+549 at $z=1.344$. A near-infrared spectrum taken with the Subaru telescope showed H$β$ emission line with FWHM of $1194\pm77$ km s$^{-1}$ and weak [O III] emission line but no optical Fe II lines, due to the limited wavelength coverage and poor signal-to-noise ratio. However, UV Fe II lines are present in the SDSS optical spectrum. The source is very radio-loud, unresolved, and has a flat radio spectrum. The broadband SED of the source has the typical two hump structure shown by blazars and other $γ$-NLS1s. The source exhibits strong variability at all wavelengths such as the optical, infrared, and $γ$-ray bands. All these observed characteristics show that TXS 1206+549 is the most distant $γ$-NLS1 known to date.

description: Moduli stabilization in the type IIA massive string theory so far was achieved only in the AdS vacua. The uplifting to dS vacua has not been performed as yet: neither the analogs of type IIB anti-D3 brane at the tip of the conifold, nor the appropriate D-terms have been identified. The hope was recently expressed that the F-term uplifting may work. We investigate this possibility in the context of a simplified version of the type IIA model developed in hep-th/0505160 and find that the F-term does not uplift the AdS vacua to dS vacua with positive CC. Thus it remains a challenging task to find phenomenologically acceptable vacua in the type IIA string theory.

Implementing a new Galaxy integration to export datasets to COPO
Creators: name: Soranzo, Nicola

Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited
Year: 2025

description: Galaxy tools and workflows [doi:10.1038/s41587-023-02100-3] have recently been developed to support international biodiversity efforts like the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP), the European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) and the Darwin Tree of Life (DToL) initiatives, whose common goal is to generate high-quality reference genome assemblies in large scale.

These Galaxy workflows are able to produce genome assemblies and annotations starting from the sequencing reads, but often a manual step is required at the end of this process to submit these large data (together with the required metadata) to a deposition database like the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA). This last step can be facilitated by using the COPO brokering portal [doi:10.12688/f1000research.23889.1], which guides the user in the submission process while ensuring that all the necessary metadata are provided.

To integrate these currently separate processes of production and deposition of genome assemblies, we are working on extending the Galaxy backend and user interface, together with the COPO Application Programming Interface (API), to allow users to easily export their Galaxy datasets to the COPO platform, from which they can then start the metadata validation and submission process to ENA.

This export mechanism will be similar to the already existing Galaxy integration with Invenio RDM.

Once completed, this integration between Galaxy and COPO will improve the interoperability of both projects, and simplify Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) data management for users.

This project is funded by BioFAIR, a new federated digital research infrastructure funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and due to launch later this year. BioFAIR will provide end-to-end FAIR research data management and analysis capabilities along with the necessary support and training for UK researchers working in the life sciences.

description: Positron emission tomography(PET) image reconstruction is an ill-posed inverse problem and suffers from high level of noise due to limited counts received. Recently deep neural networks especially convolutional neural networks(CNN) have been successfully applied to PET image reconstruction. However, the local characteristics of the convolution operator potentially limit the image quality obtained by current CNN-based PET image reconstruction methods. In this paper, we propose a residual swin-transformer based regularizer(RSTR) to incorporate regularization into the iterative reconstruction framework. Specifically, a convolution layer is firstly adopted to extract shallow features, then the deep feature extraction is accomplished by the swin-transformer layer. At last, both deep and shallow features are fused with a residual operation and another convolution layer. Validations on the realistic 3D brain simulated low-count data show that our proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in both qualitative and quantitative measures.

description: Theoretical understanding of experimental results from relativistic heavy-ion collisions requires a microscopic approach to the behavior of QCD n-point functions at finite temperatures, as given by the hierarchy of Dyson-Schwinger equations, properly generalized within the Matsubara formalism. The technical complexity of related finite-temperature calculations however mandates modeling. We present a model where the QCD interaction in the infrared, nonperturbative domain, is modeled by a separable form. Results for the mass spectrum of light quark flavors at finite temperature are presented.

description: We obtain an exact vector solitary solution for the amplification of an optical pulse with a time width short compared with both population and polarization decay time. This dissipative soliton results from the balance between the gain from inverted resonant two-level atoms and the linear loss of the host material. We suppose that the excited state of the active centers is degenerate on the projection of the angular moment. Numerical simulations demonstrate the stability of these vector dissipative solitons in the presence of both linear birefringence and group velocity dispersion of the host material.

Comparison and prediction of the level of career aspirations of adolescent males and females
Creators: name: Johnston, Wendy Ann
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The purpose of the study was to investigate gender differences in educational and occupational aspirations, and commitment to work and to home and family of adolescents. Attempts were made to identify factors that are associated with the levels of aspirations. The factors considered were family SES, parents' educational level, grade-point average, and commitment to working, studying, home and family, community services, and leisure. Comparisons were made regarding the number of same-gender-dominated, opposite-gender, and balanced-gender occupations selected by the males and females. The 208 Grade 11 and 12 students, selected from four Vancouver Schools, completed a questionnaire that included: personal information (sex, age, grade, and grade-point average); family background (education and employment information of parents/guardians); adolescent's future plans (educational and occupational aspirations). Subjects also completed the commitment scale of the Salience Inventory to determine their commitment to work, home and family, studying, leisure, and community service. T-tests, step-wise multiple regression, and chi-square analyses were conducted on the data. At the p < .05 level, no statistically significant gender-based differences were found between the level of educational or occupational aspirations, or commitment to work or to home and family. The regression analysis indicated that grade-point average, commitment to studying, family SES level, and commitment to work were predictive males' educational aspirations; grade-point average, commitment to studying, and father's educational level were predictive of females' educational aspirations; family SES level and commitment to studying were predictive of males' occupational aspirations; and grade-point average, father's educational level, and commitment to studying were predictive of females' occupational aspirations. The chi-square analysis indicated there was a significant relationship between a subject's gender and the percent of women in the aspired to occupation. The results of this study indicated that there are not significant gender differences in the levels of educational and occupational aspirations of adolescents. However, different factors were seen to predict the levels of educational and occupational aspirations of adolescent males and females. The results also showed that although females are beginning to select non-traditional occupations, males still select mainly traditional occupations.
