Investigating synaptic growth pathways affected by TDP-43 misregulation in a Drosophila model of Amytrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Creators: name: Shilton, Amanda
Publisher: name: Brandeis University
Year: 2018

description: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that results in progressive and worsening paralysis. Mutations in the TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) have been implicated in both familial and sporadic cases of ALS, and aggregates of TDP-43 have been found in ALS patient derived brain tissue suggesting a central role of the protein in disease pathology. This protein is involved in a variety of RNA-related cellular processes including transcription, translation, splicing, and mRNA transport, and its levels are very tightly controlled within the cell. It has previously been shown that disrupting TDP-43 levels in Drosophila results in decreased survival, reduced growth of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), and defective growth factor signaling. The BMP pathway is one growth factor signaling pathway that we have shown to be misregulated. One of the downstream targets of this pathway, phosphorylated-Mad (p-Mad), was decreased specifically at the synapse when TDP-43 was misexpressed, although its nuclear levels remained unaffected. Here I investigated two possible mechanisms through which TDP-43 dysfunction could act to bring about this selective loss in BMP signaling. First, excessive retrograde transport of p-Mad away from the synapse could be contributing to synapse-specific depletion. Second, recent work has suggested that in addition to canonical BMP signaling, glutamate receptors on the muscle help to regulate the synaptic p-Mad pool, and therefore reduction of post-synaptic glutamate receptors could lead to a decrease in pre-synaptic p-Mad. My results indicate that retrograde traffic is not contributing to the synaptic growth defects in our ALS model, but that GluRIIA levels appear to be reduced suggesting that this non-canonical pathway could be playing a role in disease pathology. Overall, my findings provide some important insight into what factors TDP-43 misregulation could be impinging upon in ALS, thus opening up new avenues for further exploration.
Electoral reform in Prince Edward Island: A case study in deliberative democracy

Subjects: subject: Political Science, General.

description: This thesis examines the political theory of deliberative democracy, as elucidated by Habermas, through a case study of the electoral reform process in Prince Edward Island. For deliberative democrats like Habermas, public debate ideally possesses an epistemic, or truth-tracking, dimension. After a through discussion of the reform process in that jurisdiction, complemented by interviews with important actors in that process, the public debate on electoral reform in PEI is evaluated in terms of its correspondence with the idealistic presuppositions of deliberative democracy. It is argued that, due to low levels of public knowledge and problematic media coverage of the issue, the PEI electoral reform process provides little empirical support for the theory of deliberative democracy. Examining the dynamics of this case of public deliberation allows us to identify the factors that impede reasoned public deliberation in contemporary society.

description: Via close readings of Eugenio Tisselli's degenerative and regenerative, ¨paired works that become progressively less comprehensible the more users interact with them," we are able to grasp the ecological costs of the time we spend online. And we can begin to recognize, with Justin Berner, a concern with permanence and ephemerality in the digital sphere that is not unique to the work of Tisselli. It is, rather, a common thematic concern throughout the history of electronic literature. The term that Berner advances for this literary countertext to the instrumentalism of the Digital Humanitiers, is digital posthumanism.
Ubiquitous over-expression of human X-linked inhibitor apoptosis (XIAP) in a transgenic mouse and implications for tumorigenesis

description: The suppression of programmed cell death is an essential alteration in the transformation from normal to neoplastic growth. The X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) is a potent suppressor of apoptosis. It is a member of the Inhibitor of Apoptosis (IAP) family and functions by inhibiting caspases 3, 7 and 9 critical proteases in the process of programmed cell death. XIAP expression levels are frequently elevated in cancer cell lines and tumors, yet the link between XIAP expression and tumorigenesis has not been demonstrated experimentally. The objective of this project is to determine whether XIAP over-expression predisposes mice to cancer. A XIAP transgenic mouse model has been created with expression of the transgene driven by the ubiquitin C promoter. The UbiC-6-myc XIAP transgenics demonstrate ubiquitous over-expression of the human homolog of XIAP. Transgene over-expression was detected by western blot in all tissues tested including brain, retina, thymus, lung, heart, liver, kidney, pancreas, and spleen. The mice develop normally and show no unusual phenotype. Homozygous mice have been bred that show a further two-fold over-expression relative to their heterozygous littermates. Suppression of apoptosis has been documented in in vitro studies of mouse embryo fibroblasts and hepatocyte cultures. Transgenic XIAP provides protection against injury-induced apoptosis in vivo in a high dose streptozotocin induced pancreatic beta cell damage model in adult mice. The mice have been bred with an inducible c-myc oncogene transgenic strain that expresses c-myc in the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans when activated by tamoxifen (obtained from Dr. Gerard Evan). The myc/XIAP double transgenics responded in the same manner as the single c-myc transgenics and the beta cells underwent apoptosis. These results suggest a model where XIAP suppresses injury or stress induced apoptosis but is unable to block genetically pre-determined or oncogene-activated apoptosis.
Manipulator path planning with multi-resolution potential fields and fuzzy logic control
Creators: name: Soucy, Martin
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: Robot path planning is an important part of the development of autonomous systems. Numerous strategies have been proposed in the literature regarding mobile robots but trajectory planning for manipulators is considerably more difficult since the entire structure can move and therefore produce collisions with surrounding obstacles. This thesis presents an original solution and analytical comparison to path planning for manipulator arms. Path planning is executed in two parts: first, a global path is found to guide the end effector in the environment using artificial potential fields and multi resolution occupancy grids, then, a local path is determined for the entire robot structure by considering the kinematics of the robot as well as the repulsive forces of nearby obstacles in a fuzzy logic controller. Results are shown from a simulator that has been built for this purpose. The contribution of this research is to develop a robust solution for path planning with collision avoidance: one that can be used for various manipulator arms and environment configurations. The proposed method is easily applicable to 2D and 3D environments and has been tested on both.

description: A bipartite system whose subsystems are quantum chaotic and coupled via an entangling interaction with a tunable strength is a paradigmatic model to explore nonequilibrium phenomena. Using this generic model various interesting problems are explored in this thesis research.
description: Conventional entanglement measures for bipartite systems can be expressed in terms of Schmidt eigenvalues. A perturbation theory for computing the Schmidt eigenvalues and associated eigenvectors of Floquet and Hamiltonian systems can be derived in the spirit of standard Rayleigh-Schrödinger approach, including a regularization to handle small Schmidt eigenvalue denominators.
description: It is found that the quantum coherence of the initial state relative to the preferred subsystem eigenbases — quantified by the off-diagonal elements of the subsystem density matrices — acts as a resource for equilibration and thermalization as embodied by the entanglement generated when time evolved. Based on the entangling interaction strength, four distinct perturbation regimes can be conceived: ultraweak, weak, intermediate, and strong. In addition, hinging on the quantum coherence endowed by an initial state, various initial state ensembles are considered. A universal timescale involving the interaction strength valid for any initial state is identified, enabling one to cast the theory in a universal form. For initial states with vanishing coherence, it was found that the average entanglement generated is negligibly small for weak regimes, and system fails to equilibrate. However, in the limit of maximal initial state coherence, the average entanglement generated becomes maximal, and the system thermalizes, even when the interaction between the subsystems is ultraweak. This is a remarkable result, given that the eigenstates are not all thermal-like, providing an alternative path to thermalization than from the famous eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. In addition, in the ultraweak regime, the initial states with maximal coherence show a dominant quadratic-in-time entanglement growth, in contrast to widely observed linear-in-time behavior.
Transaction management in peer-to-peer multidatabase systems

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Computer Science.

description: Peer-to-peer multidatabase systems (P2P MDBSs) are dynamic networks of peers with total absence of any global schema, any central administrative authority, any data integration, any global access to multiple databases, permanent participation of databases, etc. Global and local transactions are supported in P2P MDBSs. A global transaction generates descendent transactions when it is propagated to other peers over acquaintances in a P2P MDBS. Descendent transactions are translations of the original global transaction based on mappings between attributes in two acquainted peers. We present a serializability theory for transactions in P2P MDBSs, and then a concurrency control protocol is proposed to ensure the global serializability of global histories by controlling the consistency over each single acquaintance. The correctness of the concurrency control protocol is proved by using the developed theory.

description: This thesis will examine the political work done by Chicago Black Power advocates to elect the largest number of black politicians to the city government in its history during the 1970s and 1980s. Focusing through the lens of four organizations, the Chicago-Area Friends of SNCC, the Illinois Black Panther Party, the Citizens Schools Committee, and the Original Rainbow Coalition, black power activists worked inside and outside of traditional civil rights organizations to launch their political campaigns or to support the candidacies of other black politicians. By engaging in voter drives, political education programs, and by building multi-racial and ethnic coalitions that were grounded in class solidarity, black activists built a powerful voting bloc that created a new black political elite, independent of political party control. The contributions of black power advocates and their allies over the course of a decade dismantled the political domination of the Democratic Party Machine and provided new strategies that future black politicians would follow in electoral politics locally and nationally for decades to come.

Subjects: subject: Language, Linguistics.

description: Although Canada is a bilingual country, with both French and English as its official languages, Canadians do not have at their disposal, many Canadian-produced general English or French dictionaries. Moreover, they do not have a single general bilingual English-French, French-English dictionary of Canadian origin.$\sp1$ This means that Canadians often use European-produced dictionaries, such as the Nouveau Petit Robert, the Random House Webster, the Robert Collins Super Senior and the Oxford Hachette. Since these dictionaries are not produced for the Canadian market, there are many elements of English and French as used in Canada (i.e. Canadianisms) that are not contained in them. In addition, for the limited number of Canadianisms that are covered, the coverage given by these dictionaries is often unsatisfactory. This thesis studies Canadian English and French to obtain a clearer picture of their nature, and more specifically, of Canadianisms. It then examines current unilingual and bilingual dictionaries produced both in Canada and in Europe, with the objective of determining their coverage and treatment of Canadianisms. From this examination springs a discussion of the problems identified, along with proposed solutions. Finally, the methodology of the Bilingual Canadian Dictionary Project is analyzed in order to see how it deals with Canadianisms, and an actual entry is produced following its methodology to see if this Canadian lexicographic project is meeting its objective of presenting a true account of English and French as they are used in Canada. ftn$\sp1$The only Canadian bilingual dictionary ever produced was Vinay et al.'s Canadian Dictionary published in 1962. This dictionary, however, was only an abridged edition and has long been out of print.

description: Purpose: To assess the survival of children diagnosed with cancer between 1982 and 1988 using population based data. Subjects: 4715 cancer patients diagnosed with cancer prior to age twenty, between 1982-1988, as reported population based cancer registries. Mortality status (up to December 31, 1991) was ascertained by linking subjects to the Canadian mortality database. Actuarial survival rates and assessment of the role of covariates (ie. gender, age at diagnosis, year of diagnosis) on survival using the proportional hazards model. The five year survival rate of children diagnosed with a primary malignancy between 1982 and 1988 was 69%. Among those cancers examined, age at diagnosis was a significant prognostic factor for children diagnosed with leukaemia, neuroblastoma, astrocytoma, ependymoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma ($\rm p0.05$). Infants with leukaemia had a substantially poorer prognosis when compared to children diagnosed after age one. Conversely, those diagnosed with neuroblastoma prior to age one had a considerably improved chance of survival. After adjusting for age and year of diagnosis, females were found to have a markedly higher survival for acute lymphocytic leukaemia, and ependymomas ($\rm p0.05$). Improved survival was observed for children diagnosed more recently with acute lymphocytic leukaemia, acute non-lymphocytic leukaemia and Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma ($\rm p0.02$). There was evidence to suggest that survival also improved by year of diagnosis among children with fibrosarcoma ($\rm p=0.05$), Wilms' tumour ($\rm p=0.07$) and ovarian germ cell malignancies ($\rm p=0.06$). No significant trends in survival were observed for the other forms of childhood cancer examined. Geographical variations in survival were assessed for children diagnosed with either acute lymphocytic leukaemia, an astrocytoma or Hodgkin's disease. The survival rates among children diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukaemia or astrocytoma in British Columbia between 1987 and 1988, were found to be significantly higher when compared to the remainder of the cohort ($\rm p0.05$).

description: There are no available guidelines for the diagnosis of meniscal tears in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. The goal of the present study was to prospectively study a cohort of such patients referred for arthroscopy and develop a clinical prediction rule to select patients who would benefit from arthroscopy. Patients with osteoarthritis of the knee refractory to conservative medical treatment were selected for arthroscopic evaluation. A standardized assessment protocol was administered to each patient and repeated by a second observer when feasible to permit calculation of the kappa coefficient ($\kappa$) for interobserver agreement. Arthroscopic determination of unstable meniscal tears was recorded by one observer who reviewed a video recording and was blinded to preoperative data based on objective criteria. Those variables which had the highest interobserver agreement and the strongest association with meniscal tear by univariable methods were then entered into a logistic regression model. This study underscored the difficulty in using clinical variables to predict unstable medial meniscal tears which were addressed at arthroscopy. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: To examine the current status and potential for further integration of climate and health policies in Germany, we conducted and analyzed interviews with stakeholders working on climate change, health, and related areas from various sectors including government, healthcare, academia, and advocacy organizations.

We found general agreement among participants that climate and health policies should be more closely integrated, though health stakeholders emphasized this need more urgently compared to climate actors. Most participants saw potential benefits in further integration, including maximizing co-benefits for climate action and public health outcomes, and potentially increasing public support for climate policies through a health lens.

Among the identified barriers to further integration were: limited financial and human resources; challenges in intersectoral collaboration; complex governance structures; lack of perceived urgency and attention; short-term electoral cycles; weak science-to-policy interface; and insufficient focus on prevention. Opportunities for advancement included: integrating climate considerations into health sector reforms and vice versa, political elections and global challenges as windows of opportunity and leveraging co-benefits of climate action for health.

Strategies recommended to improve integration comprised: enhancing joint working across ministries and sectors; redirecting harmful subsidies; strengthening the evidence-to-policy nexus; implementing binding legislative requirements; improving communication strategies; and focusing on socially equitable climate policies. We explore potential implications for national policy-makers, actors in the health sector, researchers, funders, and advocacy organizations to systematically integrate climate and health considerations into Germany's policy agenda.

Subjects: subject: Engineering, System Science.

description: This thesis focuses on several aspects of data perturbation for Linear Programming. Classical questions of degeneracy and post-optimal analysis are given a unified presentation, in a view of new interior point methods of linear programming. The performance of these methods is compared to the simplex algorithm; interior point methods are shown to alleviate some difficulties of representation and solution of linear programs. An affine scaling algorithm is implemented in conjunction with a simple rounding heuristic to asses the benefit of interior point trajectories to provide approximate solutions of linear integer programming.
Tau protein expression and the development of stable microtubules during neuronal differentiation of D310 cells.
Creators: name: Sun, Lijuan.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: Biology, Molecular.

description: The D310 EC cell line is multipotent and differentiation can be directed along the neuronal pathway by addition of retinoic acid (RA). The correlation between the expression of tau protein and the development of stable microtubule arrays during neuronal differentiation was studied by indirect immunofluorescence, ELISA immunoblotting and Immunogold labelling techniques. By immunofluorescence staining tau protein is not detected in undifferentiated EC cells, but it starts to be expressed at day 3 of RA induction and shows a beaded morphological appearance. The expression of tau increases steadily during neuronal differentiation. Double immunofluorescence labelling demonstrates that the expression of tau protein correlates well with the development of colchicine-resistant microtubules. The levels of total cellular tubulin, total class III $\beta$-tubulin and total tau protein were measured by ELISA. The amount of class III $\beta$-tubulin and tau protein were expressed as a ratio of the relative amount of class III $\beta$-tubulin or tau protein/mg total tubulin. ELISA results support the observations of immunofluorescence staining. The relative amount of tau protein expressed after RA induction increases steadily and parallels the increased expression of class III $\beta$-tubulin, an indicator of neuronal differentiation. Immunoblotting shows that both juvenile and mature isoforms of tau protein are present in RA-induced EC cells. Two isoforms are detected in day 3 RA-induced cells and four isoforms are detected in day 6 RA cells. All four isoforms associate with colchicine-stable microtubules. A beaded morphological distribution of tau along neurite processes seen by immunofluorescence staining suggests that tau protein associates with some, but not all microtubules in neurite processes. The prediction that tau associates with colchicine-resistant microtubules was tested by immunogold labelling at the light and electron microscopic levels.

description: The theme of the dissertation is "Forms of Work of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate Among Polish Immigrants in the Prairies of Canada (1898-1926)." The work is presented in four chapters. The first one gives a general background of the situation which existed at the time. The second chapter examines the work done in the parish of Holy Ghost in Winnipeg, which was the first Polish parish on the prairies. The third chapter shows the situation existing in the prairies in rural areas, where there were many Polish immigrants. The fourth chapter investigates the Oblates' work in other different forms, that means the involvement in the Polish schools, in the apostolate of the press, and in formation of different associations and societies.

description: La liberte est, sans l'ombre d'un doute, un des principaux concepts qui caracterisent la modernite. Nous la retrouvons comme axiome aux grands systemes ideologiques tels le liberalisme, le marxisme, l'anarchisme, etc. Or, qu'entend-on par liberte? Comment s'inscrit-elle a l'interieur d'une pensee? Proposant une typologie inspiree par la lecture des oeuvres de Benjamin Constant, d'Isaiah Berlin, d'Alain Renaut et autres, j'avance l'idee qu'il existe non seulement deux notions bien differentes de la liberte, mais que ces deux notions s'averent fondamentalement antinomiques et irreconciliables. Pour demontrer cette hypothese, j'examine la pensee d'un eminent penseur ecologiste, Murray Bookchin. Ce dernier est en effet le fondateur d'une tres influente ecole de pensee du mouvement ecologique, a savoir "l'ecologie sociale". Cet ouvrage se veut donc, d'une part, une analyse du concept de liberte et, d'autre part, une analyse de la pensee que propose Murray Bookchin.

description: Independence movements have garnered international attention in the recent years as the world has seen an increased number of minority nations seeking independence from their sovereign states. However, most of those living within these minority nations hold national identity ties to their larger state as well. This was conceptualized with Michael Keating’s concept of plurinationalism in his book Plurinational Democracies, published in 2001, capturing the general sentiment of many political scientists and analysts at the time where he states people can inhabit more than one national identity. Thus, it was thought that independence movements would not be on the rise in the 21st century, moreover they would be increasing in number. However, as seen with nations such as Scotland and Catalonia, this was not the case. This paper provides a case study of these two minority nations and how they came to seek independence from the United Kingdom and Spain, respectively, despite plurinationalism still being a relevant concept to describe national identity trends within the nations today. It suggests that while national identity is integral to independence movements, other existing social, political, or economic factors may lead a nation to seek independence at an accelerated rate.

description: Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) is a subgroup of connective tissue disorders, characterized by widespread joint pain, frequent subluxations and dislocations,
description: gastrointestinal distress, and neurological manifestations (Gensemer et al., 2021). As a disorder with no known gene association, diagnosis relies fully on clinical assessment, putting pressure on physicians to learn the signs and symptoms. Given the multi-system nature of the disorder, physicians are historically undereducated about hEDS and how to diagnose it. Patients with hEDS wait an average of 14 years between symptom manifestation and when they receive a formal diagnosis, oftentimes seeing dozens of physicians in the interim (Eurordis et al., 2009). This delay can cause tensions in doctor/patient relationships among those with hEDS. This study seeks to retrospectively explore reflections on the diagnosis journey as it pertains to the doctor-patient relationship from the perspective of both those diagnosed with hEDS and those who treat it. Through semi-structured interviews, clear timelines of each parties’ awareness and introduction into hEDS was established. Physicians expressed themes of frustration with their peers, a sense of respect and responsibility towards their patients, and an awareness of their role as pioneers in the field. Patients showed frustration towards physicians and the diagnosis journey as a whole. Many expressed signs of medical trauma and lingering emotional turmoil due to frequent dismissal of their symptoms in the doctor’s office. Establishing a better understanding of the doctor/patient relationship among those with hEDS offers important insights for the future of doctor/patient relationships as a whole.

description: Array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) has become an increasingly frequent genomic screen in clinical practice. Challenges posed by aCGH testing include the possibility of results of uncertain significance and limited predictive clinical information. These challenges are particularly significant in the prenatal setting where aCGH results may affect pregnancy management, including decisions regarding termination. Previous studies have proposed approaches to result interpretation and thorough pre-test counseling from the perspective of genetic counselors affiliated with aCGH testing labs. The purpose of this study was to explore aCGH practices in detail, with particular emphasis on the experiences and views of genetic counselors regarding the use of this technology in a prenatal setting. We interviewed nine prenatal and pediatric genetic counselors who practice in the United States and who work for academic hospitals, private clinics and aCGH testing labs. The semi-structured interviews consisted of 22 open-ended questions focused on the current practices and opinions of counselors experienced in offering aCGH. The interview transcripts were coded using ATLAS.ti software. Results showed a lack of uniformity in practice and diverse opinions regarding appropriate indications for offering aCGH to patients. Counselors raised many concerns based on their experiences with offering aCGH in pediatrics, including the frequency of results of uncertain significance and situations in which testing resulted in unanticipated and/or pre-symptomatic diagnosis. Counselors’ responses revealed no clear consensus regarding whether or not aCGH testing should be offered routinely in prenatal settings, but study participants were in agreement that there is a need for standardized implementation and practice guidelines. The results of our qualitative pilot study highlight the challenges of reaching a consensus about appropriate prenatal aCGH practices and suggest a need for additional studies to assess genetic counselors’ experiences and comfort levels with prenatal aCGH testing.

description: The mechanism of ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediated cholesterol efflux is presently unclear. Cells expressing ABCA1 reported to display distinctive membrane-protrusion-like morphology and apoA1 was also seen to bind to those structures. We hypothesized that cholesterol efflux may be in part originated from membrane shedding through membrane vesiculation and therefore may rely on relatively flexible plasma membrane. We tested several reagents known to modulate membrane fluidity and found that cholesterol efflux is indeed inversely correlated with membrane rigidity. Additionally, using differential ultracentrifugation, we provide evidence that, during ABCA1 mediated cholesterol efflux, cells produce a significant quantity of apoA1 free membrane vesicles along with apoA1 containing lipoproteins. This process can be inhibited by rigidifying the plasma membrane. We therefore conclude that flexibility of plasma membrane is necessary for ABCA1 mediated cholesterol efflux and speculate that ABCA1 and apoA1 work together to secrete membrane vesicles during efflux.

description: The given work is devoted to development of the floating point execution unit instruction scheduler for RISC-V ISA based CPU core. As a result of the study was developed CAM-based reservation station pool (RSP) for a floating-point execution unit without latency padding, in which was implemented a system to prevent instructionâs structural conflicts, based on taking into account instruction latency on wakeup section of RSP. Proposed system increased floating-point performance in SPEC 2017 tests run on the processor synthesized in FPGA.
The Development of Methods of Testing the Efficacy of Hidden Markov Models
Creators: name: Qi, David William
Publisher: name: Brandeis University

Subjects: Hidden Markov Models
Computational Neuroscience

description: To resolve the issue of the exponentially increasing computational complexity of the expectation-maximization process as the emission space of a system operating according to the mechanics of a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) expands, a specialized HMM algorithm recontextualizing the possible inputs thereof as a Poisson process was developed and used by Gat et al., among others (1997). However, little work has been done to test how the ground truth parameters of the observation sequences used to train both the standard and Poisson HMMs can influence model predictions. To that end, a series of s simulations was conducted to compare the performances of the standard and Poisson HMMs with respect to the time step sizes of dummy datasets consisting of neuronal spike trains, firing rates of the constituent cells, and the total number of emission units or spiking neurons within the ground truth data. It was found that for spike trains with durations of 2 seconds, the standard HMM was unable to compensate for higher time bin sizes as the firing rates of the constituent neurons are increased, while at the same time, the Poisson HMM was able to effectively extract state transitions even for the highest time step sizes. Moreover, spike trains with multiple neurons firing at highly distinct rates in each firing state have been observed to give rise to more accurate predictions of state probabilities.
Claims-making about the battered woman syndrome in expert testimony and news media: The case of R v Getkate
Creators: name: Rossiter, Katherine R
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Sociology, Criminology and Penology.

description: This study examines claims-making about the Battered Woman Syndrome (BWS) in the case of Lilian Getkate, who used the syndrome to substantiate a claim of self-defence after killing her abusive husband. The research is guided by the social constructionist perspective and employs content analysis to determine what claims are made in expert testimony and news media about the BWS. It examines how this construct is linked to the defendant and what claims are made about the criminal justice system's response to intimate partner violence and homicide. This research also considers the claims-makers themselves and claims regarding their expertise. Findings from this in-depth case study reveal the importance of expertise and credentials in claims-making and suggest that claims about the BWS, its relation to the defendant, and the law's response are constructed in similar ways in expert testimony and news media, though much more developed in the former.
