description: High performance, fuel efficiency, and noise and vibration refinement are key customer desired attributes for vehicular powertrain systems, including engines. Energy efficiency and reduced emissions have become even more important with the drive for sustainability and environmental protection with increasingly stringent legislation. Powertrain systems, such as internal combustion engines and their sub-systems, such as bearings, are utilised in a large number of applications/systems. Therefore, improving energy efficiency in their use is particularly important. In the case of internal combustion engines, significant frictional and power losses occur from piston compression rings. These losses are disproportional to the sizes of these small components. Therefore, much attention has been devoted to the study of compression ring behaviour. Similarly, the ideal function of bearings is dictated by both thermal and elastic distortions of their raceways.This thesis presents multi-physics integrated models for thin and thick rings, representative of piston compression rings and bearing races respectively.

Androgen receptor N-terminal domain antagonists : synthesis, SAR, and animal studies
Creators: name: Golec, Daniel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: All current hormone therapies for prostate cancer (PC), including metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), target the androgen receptor (AR). The most effective treatments for mCRPC target the C-terminal ligand-binding domain (LBD) of the AR, which ultimately fail with resumed transcriptional activity. Another target, the AR N-terminal domain (NTD) contains activation function-1 (AF-1), which is essential for AR transcriptional activity. Blocking the AR AF-1 has the potential to by-pass AR-resistance mechanisms, including constitutively active AR splice variants (AR-V) that lack the LBD. New anti-androgen drug classes, ralaniten and sintokamides, have been shown to directly interact with the AR AF-1. Fluorination of the bisphenol-A (BPA) bridge allows for a flexible drug design imparting hydrophilicity without compromising the active drug. Synthesis and biological evaluation of fluorinated ralaniten analogs, BU-86 (2.24), BU-87 (2.25), was undertaken in order to investigate the activity of the chlorohydrin side-chain and whether or not the secondary hydroxyl group is necessary for active site drug binding. Fluorinated ralaniten ketone, BU-88 (2.26), and its potential degradation product, BU-89 (2.33), were investigated as the ketone functionality has the potential for reversible covalent binding. However, its chemical and metabolic stability is questionable, despite clear signs of potency in vivo. Sterically hindered tertiary alcohol analogs BU-130 (2.45), and BU-170 (2.46), were investigated by introducing a methylated glycidol ether in the hope of achieving greater metabolic stability at no cost to potency. This modification is possible due to the enhanced solubility of bridge fluorinated BPA. Sintokamide analogs LPY37 (3.41) and LPY36 (3.42) have previously been shown to inhibit transcription by splice variant driven PC cell lines in vitro, reducing the expression of prostate specific antigen (PSA). In order to study them further in an animal model, a scaled-up synthesis was required. In order to have a more soluble sintokamide inspired drug, LPY80 (3.51) and LPY39 (3.52) were tested. The evaluation of the most potent ralaniten analog, BU-170 (2.46) and the most potent sintokamide analog LPY36 (3.42) in combination with enzalutamide is ongoing. These AR-NTD antagonists provide new insights into a novel therapy for the treatment of CRPC.

description: We study the ground-state correlation energy $E_{\rm c}$ of two electrons of opposite spin confined within a $D$-dimensional ball ($D \ge 2$) of radius $R$. In the high-density regime, we report accurate results for the exact and restricted Hartree-Fock energy, using a Hylleraas-type expansion for the former and a simple polynomial basis set for the latter. By investigating the exact limiting correlation energy $E_{\rm c}^{(0)} = \lim_{R \to 0} \Ec$ for various values of $D$, we test our recent conjecture [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 131} (2009) 241101] that, in the large-$D$ limit, $E_{\rm c}^{(0)} \sim -δ^2/8$ for any spherically-symmetric confining external potential, where $δ=1/(D-1)$.

description: We present calculations and an analysis of the spin-independent dipole electric and magnetic dynamical polarizabilities for the lowest in mass SU(3) octet of baryons. These extensive calculations are made possible by the recent implementation of semi-automatized calculations in Chiral Perturbation Theory which allows evaluating dynamical spin-independent electromagnetic polarizabilities from Compton scattering up to next-to-the-leading order. Our results are in good agreement with calculations performed for nucleons found in the literature. The dependencies for the range of photon energies up to 1 GeV, covering the majority of the meson photo production channels, are analyzed. The separate contributions into polarizabilities from the various baryon meson clouds are studied.

description: We revisit the problem of a mechanism that generates the mass spectrum of elementary particles. This has vexed physicists for several decades now. In this connection we deduce a formula that gives the masses of all known elementary particles, even though other quantum numbers are suppressed.

description: We extend our analysis of two electrons on a sphere [Phys. Rev. A {\bf 79}, 062517 (2009); Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 103}, 123008 (2009)] to electrons on concentric spheres with different radii. The strengths and weaknesses of several electronic structure models are analyzed, ranging from the mean-field approximation (restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock solutions) to configuration interaction expansion, leading to near-exact wave functions and energies. The Møller-Plesset energy corrections (up to third-order) and the asymptotic expansion for the large-spheres regime are also considered. We also study the position intracules derived from approximate and exact wave functions. We find evidence for the existence of a long-range Coulomb hole in the large-spheres regime, and infer that unrestricted Hartree-Fock theory over-localizes the electrons.

description: The study of total ozone columns above Kiev and variations of ozone concentrations in the troposphere at different altitudes above Kiev was carried out using ground-based Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectrometric observations that are taken on a routine basis at the Main Astronomical Observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (MAO NASU). This study was performed within the framework of the international ESA-NIVR-KNMI OMI-AO project no.2907 entitled OMI validation by ground-based remote sensing: ozone columns and atmospheric profiles during the time frame 2005-2008. The infrared FTIR spectral observations of direct solar radiation in the wavelength range of 2-12 micron as transmitted through the Earth's atmosphere were performed during the months of April-October of each year. The aim of the project was the validation of total ozone columns and vertical ozone profiles as obtained by the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI)) onboard of the NASA EOS-Aura scientific satellite platform. The modeling of the ozone spectral band shape near 9.6 microns was performing with the MODTRAN code and a molecular band model based on the HITRAN-2004 molecular database. The a-priori information for the spectral modeling consisted of water vapor and temperature profiles from the NASA EOS-Aqua-AIRS satellite instrument, stratospheric ozone profiles from the NASA EOS-Aura-MLS satellite instrument, TEMIS-KNMI climatological ozone profiles and surface ozone concentration measurements performed at the specific times of infrared spectra observations. The troposphere ozone variability was analyzed for two typical episodes: the spring episode of enhanced total ozone columns and the summer episode of enhanced surface ozone concentrations.

description: A nuclear track emulsion was exposed to a mixed beam of relativistic $^{12}$N, $^{10}$C, and $^7$Be nuclei having a momentum of 2 GeV/$c$ per nucleon. The beam was formed upon charge exchange processes involving $^{12}$C primary nuclei and their fragmentation. An analysis indicates that $^{10}$C nuclei are dominant in the beam and that $^{12}$N nuclei are present in it. The charge topology of relativistic fragments in the coherent dissociation of these nuclei is presented.

description: In high-energy processes near the endpoint, there emerge new contributions associated with spectator interactions. Away from the endpoint region, these new contributions are suppressed compared to the leading contribution, but the leading contribution becomes suppressed as we approach the endpoint and the new contributions become comparable. We present how the new contributions scale as we reach the endpoint and show that they are comparable to the suppressed leading contributions in deep-inelastic scattering by employing a power counting analysis. The hadronic tensor in deep-inelastic scattering is shown to factorize including the spectator interactions, and it can be expressed in terms of the lightcone distribution amplitudes of initial hadrons. We also consider the contribution of the spectator contributions in Drell-Yan processes. Here the spectator interactions are suppressed compared to double parton annihilation according to the power counting.

Experimental Characterization of Steel Jacket Retrofitted Reinforced Concrete Bridge Column Behavior in Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquakes
Creators: name: McGuiness, Sean
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: Research on seismic retrofitting of Reinforced Concrete (RC) bridge columns in the United States (U.S.) was motivated by damage observed following the 1971 San Fernando, 1989 Loma Prieta, and 1994 Northridge earthquakes of California. The research resulted in a retrofitting procedure that consisted of installing steel jackets around RC bridge columns to enhance the lateral deformation capacity. Although the research focused on the development of this retrofit strategy for bridge columns in California, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) implemented the program in 1991. Unlike the strike-slip faults in California, seismicity in western Washington is generally dominated by the Cascadia Subduction Zone fault. The 1964 Alaska, U.S., 2010 Maule, Chile and 2011 Tohoku, Japan are examples of mega-thrust long duration earthquakes emanating from a subduction zone fault and producing ground motions with longer durations of strong shaking than strike-slip faults. The research conducted in this study was motivated by the need to assess performance of the existing retrofit strategy when subjected to the expected demands of subduction zone earthquakes. The research conducted herein was an experimental study on the behavior of steel jacket retrofitted bridge columns subjected to demands from long duration earthquakes. Six reduced scale column specimens were designed, constructed, and tested as cantilevers. WSDOT’s inventory was characterized to inform the values used for the column parameters, such that the six columns were intended to reasonably cover the range of values for critical parameters. Five of six tests utilized a modified fully reversed-cyclic lateral loading protocol to include additional cycles characteristic of long duration earthquakes. The sixth test used an earthquake protocol, obtained from the response of a single degree of freedom model to a synthetic Cascadia Subduction Zone ground motion in western Washington.
description: Study results indicated stable drifts, including minimal pinching in the load-displacement response indicative of favorable hysteretic energy dissipation, at drifts in excess of the 4\% expectation set forth in the steel jacket retrofit design guidelines. Total deformation was primarily a result of longitudinal reinforcement bond slip and elongation at the footing-column interface with strength degradation due to low-cycle fatigue fracture.
title: Drag Incorporated: The Homonormative Brand Culture of RuPaul's Drag Race
Creators: name: Workman, Nathan T.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: This thesis argues RuPaul’s Drag Race (RPDR, 2009–) positions itself as a homonormative pathway to LGBTQ+ social inclusion through privileging neoliberal selfbranding and commodity activist practices that reify privileged raced, classed, and sexuality identity markers. Utilizing interdisciplinary and intersectional cultural studies methods to conduct a textual analysis, I examine how RPDR produces homonormative LGBTQ+ identities through the commodification and standardization of drag cultures. In conversation with existing RPDR scholars, I critically survey RPDR’s gender biases and prosocial messaging as an example of brand culture’s reification of hegemony and homonormativity within LGBTQ+ communities. This research considers the utility of media representation in identity, community, and political composition while also engaging with how consumption can communicate personal and relational meaning. RPDR proves the homonormative commodification of niche drag cultures perpetuates existing power imbalances, simultaneously benefitting and hindering aspects of the LGBTQ+ rights movement. In effect, RPDR rejects a radical queer politic and commodifies its cultural and iconographic elements, while the brand’s homonormative privileging exacerbates inequalities within LGBTQ+ communities.
The Nature of Damped Lyman Alpha Systems and Their Hosts in the Standard Cold Dark Matter Universe

description: Using adaptive mesh-refinement cosmological hydrodynamic simulations with a physically motivated supernova feedback prescription we show that the standard cold dark matter model can account for extant observed properties of damped Lyman alpha systems (DLAs). We then examine the properties of DLA host galaxies. We find: (1) While DLA hosts roughly trace the overall population of galaxies at all redshifts, they are always gas rich. (2) The history of DLA evolution reflects primarily the evolution of the underlying cosmic density, galaxy size and galaxy interactions. With higher density and more interactions at high redshift DLAs are larger in both absolute terms and in relative terms with respect to virial radii of halos. (3) The variety of DLAs at high redshift is richer with a large contribution coming from galactic filaments, created through close galaxy interactions. The portion of gaseous disks of galaxies where most stars reside makes relatively small contribution to DLA incidence at z=3-4. (4) The vast majority of DLAs arise in halos of mass M_h=10^10-10^12 Msun at z=1.6-4. At z=3-4, 20-30% of DLA hosts are Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs). (5) Galactic winds play an indispensable role in shaping the kinematic properties of DLAs. Specifically, the high velocity width DLAs are a mixture of those arising in high mass, high velocity dispersion halos and those arising in smaller mass systems where cold gas clouds are entrained to high velocities by galactic winds. (6) In agreement with observations, we see a weak but noticeable evolution in DLA metallicity. The metallicity distribution centers at [Z/H]=-1.5 to -1 at z=3-4, with the peak moving to [Z/H]=-0.75 at z=1.6 and [Z/H]=-0.5 by z=0. (7) The star formation rate of DLA hosts is concentrated in the range 0.3-30Msun/yr at z=3-4, gradually shifting lower to peak at ~0.5-1 Msun/yr by z=0.

STREAM-ASSOCIATED AMPHIBIAN DETECTION AND FINE-SCALE DISTRIBUTION: INFERENCES FROM ENVIRONMENTAL DNA
Creators: name: Marshall, Kelsey
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: The coastal redwood region in California has seen warming temperatures and declines in frequency of coastal fog upon which the ecosystem depends and faces an uncertain future in the face of changing climate. The region is home to a diversity of amphibian species, for which conservation and management decisions must be informed by knowledge of factors shaping their habitat selection. Surveying for stream amphibians is labor-intensive, often requiring disturbance of species’ habitat and leads to variable detection rates. The collection of environmental DNA from water is an effective tool for determining presence of stream amphibian species in water without negatively impacting study species. However, there are still uncertainties in how eDNA results can be interpreted in stream systems due to complexities of downstream transport dynamics.
description: We used eDNA to model occupancy of coastal tailed frog at the southern extent of its range on the northern California coast in relation to stream habitat, temperature, and forest management covariates and explored the use of eDNA quantification as a tool to support occupancy models based on eDNA presence/absence by informing scale of downstream eDNA transport. We found that median eDNA transport distances are likely short (less than 100 meters) in our system and that coastal tailed frog occupancy was best explained by level of summertime fog and correlated low air temperature. Additionally, we used eDNA and visual encounter surveys to add to our knowledge of an understudied amphibian species, the red-bellied newt, with a range limited almost exclusively to the coastal redwood forest region of California. We found red-bellied newts select breeding sites in large 4th to 6th Strahler low-gradient streams with cobble substrate and that breeding males overwhelmingly occupied pools. Through the results of this study, we demonstrate the utility of eDNA to model occupancy of stream-associated amphibian species of conservation concern and add to our knowledge of the transport dynamics of eDNA in watersheds.

description: Theme of final qualification work is Â«Prospects for the development of forensic examination of handwriting using engineering and technical meansÂ». In this work, the main aspects of the application of handwriting forensic examination were considered and what methods and means of an engineering and technical nature were of the greatest interest for development. Engineering and technical methods and means are not only used in the conduct of forensic handwriting examination, but also largely predetermine the possibility of creating new types of objects for expert research. In this connection, in this work, fundamentally new opportunities for the development of handwriting examination were analysed.
Design and Implementation of an Advanced System for Wind Resource Assessment
Creators: name: Macharia, Kang'iri Samuel
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019
Subjects: wind resource assessment, wireless sensor node

description: The global renewable energy demand has been on the rise since 1870s. A report published by Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) showed that the global cumulative installed wind capacity rose from 10MW in 1980 to 539.6GW in 2017. In total, Asia, Europe, America, and Pacific regions contributed to 99.16% of the global wind capacity, while Africa and the Middle East took up the remaining 0.84% by the end of 2017. Generally, there is a need for developing countries to invest more in wind energy to significantly contribute to the global wind power installed capacity. Before installing a wind turbine, wind data for a prospected site needs to be collected for a minimum of one year. The analysis is then done and a detailed wind resource assessment report prepared. For developing countries, instruments and expertise for carrying out wind resource assessment are all imported, which is an additional hindrance to wind power investment. Current instruments for collecting wind data are not able to solely collect wind data from numerous masts located far from each other, analyse the collected data without human intervention, and effectively provide the results of interest to the user when needed. Various solutions to this problem have been attempted, but they are isolated in the sense that one specialist handles the instrumentation part of the problem, then another specialist handles the analysis and resource assessment part. An advanced system that acquires wind data from remote locations wirelessly (in real-time), does wind data analysis automatically, and manages results securely and conveniently as demanded by the user, would significantly reduce wind resource assessment hustles and financial burden. This study presents the design and implementation of such a system, aiming at cutting down the cost of wind resource assessment hence facilitating wind power investment, especially in developing countries. This study involved the design of Cup-Vane Anemometer parts, 3D-Printing, installation of the required embedded systems, and assembly of the whole system instrument that made up a wireless sensor node. After this, the instrument was calibrated in the lab. Using Internet of Things (IoT) technology, software algorithms were developed around a distant fog-cloud-connected minicomputer (sink node), to receive data and do all the required data analysis and management according to the user’s set demands. This research gave rise to a system that after installation, reliably collected wind data from a site within a mean fitting deviation of ±0.063398m/s, stored, analysed, and relayed results to the user on request. These results included wind speed, direction distributions, as well as power predictions. This study has been verified in the lab using 1−16m/s wind speeds and outside in an open field with 1−5m/s wind speeds.

description: Particle aspects of two-dimensional conformal field theories are investigated, using methods from algebraic quantum field theory. The results include asymptotic completeness in terms of (counterparts of) Wigner particles in any vacuum representation and the existence of (counterparts of) infraparticles in any charged irreducible product representation of a given chiral conformal field theory. Moreover, an interesting interplay between the infraparticle's direction of motion and the superselection structure is demonstrated in a large class of examples. This phenomenon resembles the electron's momentum superselection expected in quantum electrodynamics.

Raising smiling fathers : the construction of masculinity in Japanese nonprofit organizations that promote engaged parenting
Creators: name: Koike, Evan T.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: This dissertation presents my research on the messaging and effectiveness of Japanese nonprofit organizations and community groups that encourage Japanese men to participate actively in their families’ daily activities, including child care and housework, and to perform more empathetic, emotive masculinities. Drawing connections between many Japanese men’s reluctance to engage with their families and the gender inequality that pervades Japanese society, these groups view men’s detachment from their children as a significant contributor to Japan’s declining birthrate, which threatens the future of the country’s workforce. The organizations’ leadership acknowledges the challenges facing Japanese women, who must simultaneously work in the market economy and accomplish most domestic labor and whose double burden affects the decisions of Japanese couples to give birth to fewer children than in previous generations. In response to this demographic crisis, nongovernmental organizations and community-based gatherings of young fathers, guided by the philosophy of such nonprofits as Fathering Japan, portray parenting as a rewarding, enjoyable experience. Fathering Japan’s effort to “increase the number of smiling fathers” appeals to many fathers, whose attachment to paying jobs and to the paradigm of men as primary providers has weakened since the collapse of Japan’s postwar economic bubble. According to my 13-month ethnographic research in the Greater Tokyo Area, the parenting groups that promote active fathering also provide members with comradery often absent from relationships mediated by money and paid labor. However, despite these organizations’ ideals and members’ mutual support, some participating fathers cannot involve themselves fully in their families’ affairs because of structural barriers posed by the mandatory, excessive overtime required by many Japanese employers, some of which—ironically—sponsor events hosted by Fathering Japan. Other participants become too fixated on fathering groups’ enjoinder to enjoy fathering and then select for themselves from a position of masculine privilege only those parenting practices that they find entertaining and relaxing. Consequently, nonprofit organizations and local groups focused on fathering must continuously adapt their message to changing social circumstances in ways that may sometimes seem rhetorically inconsistent or that may eventually become ineffective.

description: We have studied magnetization of graphene nanocrystals obtained by sonic exfoliation of graphite. No ferromagnetism is detected at any temperature down to 2 K. Neither do we find strong paramagnetism expected due to the massive amount of edge defects. Rather, graphene is strongly diamagnetic, similar to graphite. Our nanocrystals exhibit only a weak paramagnetic contribution noticeable below 50K. The measurements yield a single species of defects responsible for the paramagnetism, with approximately one magnetic moment per typical graphene crystallite.

description: The electronic excitations of manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) films were studied as a function of potassium doping using electron energy-loss spectroscopy in transmission. Our data reveal doping induced changes in the excitation spectrum, and they provide evidence for the existence of three doped phases: K$_1$MnPc, K$_2$MnPc, and K$_4$MnPc. Furthermore, the addition of electrons first leads to a filling of orbitals with strong Mn 3d character, a situation which also affects the magnetic moment of the molecule.

Wilson lines in transverse-momentum dependent parton distribution functions with spin degrees of freedom

description: We propose a new framework for transverse-momentum dependent parton distribution functions, based on a generalized conception of gauge invariance which includes into the Wilson lines the Pauli term $\sim F^{μν}[γ_μ, γ_ν]$. We discuss the relevance of this nonminimal term for unintegrated parton distribution functions, pertaining to spinning particles, and analyze its influence on their renormalization-group properties. It is shown that while the Pauli term preserves the probabilistic interpretation of twist-two distributions---unpolarized and polarized---it gives rise to additional pole contributions to those of twist-three. The anomalous dimension induced this way is a matrix, calling for a careful analysis of evolution effects. Moreover, it turns out that the crosstalk between the Pauli term and the longitudinal and the transverse parts of the gauge fields, accompanying the fermions, induces a constant, but process-dependent, phase which is the same for leading and subleading distribution functions. We include Feynman rules for the calculation with gauge links containing the Pauli term and comment on the phenomenological implications of our approach.

Beyond bike lanes : the politics of the cycling infrastructure decision-making process
Creators: name: Mayers, Rebecca
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Despite the overwhelming evidence on the benefits of cycling, the process for approving initiatives for better infrastructure remains politically contentious. It remains unclear how the decisions are made regarding cycling infrastructure and why some projects are successful, and others fail. Political interests are often guiding the transportation agenda rather than the needs of all residents. This dissertation presents a qualitative case study of the cycling infrastructure decision-making process in the City of Vancouver. Informed by political-economic theory, this study engaged with decision-makers through semi-structured interviews to answer the following research questions: (1) What is the current decision-making process of cycling infrastructure investment from long-term planning to evaluation?; (2) What are the mechanisms of influence and power in the cycling infrastructure decision-making process?; and (3) How are issues of equity valued, determined, implemented, and evaluated throughout the decision-making process? Themes were identified from the data collected and consist of the cycling infrastructure decision-making process, mechanisms of influence and power, issues of equity, political infrastructure over time, and the pandemic response and future changes in cycling. The discussion of findings prompted four themes to help better synthesize the politics of the cycling infrastructure decision-making process: (1) multifaceted decision-making process; (2) negotiating politics; (3) investment, growth, and equity; and (4) pandemic response. This research brings to light new findings on the political nature of cycling infrastructure and how growth and intense capitalization of space and time in the land market can be what holds the decision-making process together. Cycling infrastructure projects are not necessarily based on need but based on who expresses their need and has the political means to communicate them. This dissertation investigates the inequity in the decision-making to provoke further research on cycling infrastructure decision-making to broaden our understanding and how to influence positive change through the practice of planning.

description: Quasiperiodic pinning arrays, as recently demonstrated theoretically and experimentally using a five-fold Penrose tiling, can lead to a significant enhancement of the critical current Ic as compared to "traditional" regular pinning arrays. However, while regular arrays showed only a sharp peak in Ic(Phi) at the matching flux Phi1 and quasiperiodic arrays provided a much broader maximum at PhiPhi1 by using non-Penrose quasiperiodic pinning arrays. This result is based on a qualitatively different mechanism of flux pinning by quasiperiodic pinning arrays and could be potentially useful for applications in superconducting micro-electronic devices operating in a broad range of magnetic fields.

A Systematic Review of Gender and Academic Self-Concept in Secondary Education
Creators: name: Kieper, Genna Suzanne
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Gender
Self-concept
Systematic review
Secondary Education

description: Research on general academic and domain-specific self-concept is robust, but often neglects to address how self-concept is formed through a students’ gender identity. The present study aims to synthesize the current literature and understand how gender has been situated in academic self-concept research over the last 20 years in secondary education settings. We selected to conduct this review in a narrative fashion due to the nuanced understandings of gender and broad definitions of self-concept. Through our systematic search procedures we reviewed, analyzed, synthesized 43 studies that had gender and academic self-concept as main foci. Largely, we have discovered that the literature discusses gender in terms of binary sex rather than as a social construct and requires further understanding of the role that gender and social theories play in developing a students’ academic self-concept, both generally and in specific domains that are tied to traditional gender stereotypical beliefs.
