Australian financial services and workplace gender inequity: A critical feminist economic analysis
Creators: name: Deakin, Kathrine Colleen
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The study explores how workplace discrimination against women is maintained or challenged within Australia’s largest financial services workforces. Analysing workforce statistical datasets, organisation reporting, and, interviews, the research uncovers patterns and omissions in sector workplace gender equity discourse and disclosure. This study delivers an original contribution extending feminist political economy analysis to reveal a prevalence of workplace gender equity discourses based on neo-classical economic assumptions about gender relations: Post-Feminism; Meritocracy; and, Commodifying Gender Equity. The study is significant, articulating how unquestioned neo-classical economic assumptions about gender relations contributes to maintaining workplace gender inequality within the Australian financial services sector.

description: Der Schwerpunkt der Klinik für Infektiologie liegt auf dem interdisziplinären Management von Infektionskrankheiten im Rahmen der Immunsuppression. Die Spezialist*innen für Infektionskrankheiten arbeiten eng mit Mikrobiolog*innen, Virolog*innen, Nephrolog*innen, Hepatolog*innen und Immunolog*innen zusammen, um die optimale Prävention, Diagnose und Behandlung zum Wohle der Patient*innen zu gewährleisten. Diese Bündelung von Kompetenzen ist ein echter Vorteil, da die an der Diagnose und Behandlung von Infektionskrankheiten beteiligten Ärzt*innen und Wissenschaftler*innen interdisziplinär zusammenarbeiten.
description: The Department of Infectious Dis-eases under the medical leadership of Professor Oliver Witzke was founded in 2015 as part of the West German Centre for Infectious Dis-eases (WZI). The major focus of the Department is the interdisciplinary management of infectious diseases in the context of immunosuppression. Connecting expertise from various medical fields, infectious disease specialists work closely with microbiologists, virologists, nephrologists, hepatologists and immunologists to develop optimal prevention, diagnosis and treat-ment for the benefit of patients. This pooling of expertise is a real advantage, with doctors and sci-entists involved in diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases collaborating closely on an inter-disciplinary basis. Together with Professor Benjamin Wilde, profes-sor of experimental nephrology, we combine expertise in the fields of transplantation and infectious dis-eases to ensure optimal patient care and conduct research on infectious diseases after solid organ transplan-tation. In addition to caring for affected patients, research and teaching in the field of infectious diseases take high priority. In 2018, Oliver Witzke was appointed professor of infectious diseases, with fund-ing from the Rudolph Ackermann Foundation. The newly founded research laboratory led by Adalbert Krawczyk is focused on the devel-opment of novel drugs against viral infections that are a major health burden, particularly in immuno-suppressed patients. These include, e.g., herpes simplex viruses (HSV), the human cytomegalovirus or BK polyomaviruses. Within the past years, the group has developed a humanized monoclonal antibody against HSV, which was patented by the University of Duisburg-Essen and ultimately sold to a pharmaceutical company in Hei-delberg. Supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG), we recently developed a novel vac-cine candidate against HSV, which effectively protected mice from an otherwise lethal HSV infection.

description: The paper deals with the issue of how Japan is positioning itself in the emerging and contested field of international connectivity initiatives. It starts with surveying the emergence of the connectivity topic in recent years, paying attention to recent infrastructure initiatives in the Asia-Pacific and Eurasian regions. Although the current public debate on connectivity is dominated by an attention on China’s 2013 Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), Japan has actually been engaged in international infrastructure schemes at least since the 1980s. This does not only hold for the Japanese state, but also for major multinational corporations of Japan. One is tempted to speak of a “Silk Subway”: Japan has always been a very important, but not very visible player in international infrastructure connectivity. Several reasons for this low-key profile are pointed out. The recent upturn of Japan’s engagement (PQI – Part-nership for Quality Infrastructure, FOIP – Free and Open Indo-Pacific) is to some extent due to a shift of strategy: Whereas the country followed a rather unilateral approach in recent decades, the focus has shifted to strategic alliances embedded in a multilateral framework. Policy has become much more effective that way, while the role of Japan for international infrastructure connectivity still seems con-siderably underrated.

A House is Not (Necessarily) a Home: Nomads, American Truck Drivers, and the Creation and Conception of Home
Creators: name: Marshall, Brooke
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2013

description: What is home? Is it simply a place, or is it something more than that? What is the nature of home for truck drivers? Where does it occur, and how do they create and conceptualize it? I examine the literature on home, concluding that home is not a place but rather a relationship that occurs between an individual and a place. I then draw upon autoethnographic research to communicate how truck drivers conceptualize and create home.

Helops

description: Helops Fabricius, 1775
As outlined in Nabozhenko & Steiner (2021: 354-356), the new world “ Helops ” clearly do not belong to the Old-World genus Helops as both belong to different putative phylogenetic groups. Mediterranean Helops to the Helopioid Helopina and New World “ Helops ” to the Catomoid Helopina. Horn (1870) recognized the single genus Helops for all Helopini from north of Mexico, which has remained constant until the last decade. Champion (1887) treated the Central American fauna and recognized three genera (See Nautes and Tarpela below) and retained the use of Helops for flightless species. Champion’s concept of a separate flightless genus would likely have included Stenotrichus LeConte, 1862 and Biomorphus Motschulsky, 1872 from the western United States which are both currently synonymized under Helops following the broad concept of Nearctic workers.
Regardless of whether a broader or narrower concept is used, and whether flight is a meaningful character to separate genera, the genus name Helops is insufficient to represent the New World species currently placed there. The necessity of separating the Palearctic true Helops from the New World “ Helops ” has been discussed many times by previous authors: (Gebien 1943, Marcuzzi 2001, Dajoz 2001, Nabozhenko et al. 2016, Nabozhenko & Steiner 2021). Dinomus, as discussed above, agrees with Champion’s concept of flightless Central American species. This represents the oldest available genus-group name of Helopini with a type species from in the New World from which all other New World genera must be adequately distinguished from if they are to continue to be recognized.

Investigations of a Ground Stone Tool Workshop at Pacbitun, Belize
Creators: name: Ward, Drew
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2013

description: The Ancient Maya site of Pacbitun is centrally located between the two major ecozones of the Belize River Valley and the Mountain Pine Ridge in west-central Belize.  In June 2012, investigations began on a group of mounds, known as the Tzib Group, located outside of Pacbitun?s site core in order to investigate the group's potential as a locale for ground stone tool workshops.  Excavations at the Tzib Group uncovered over 1000kg of granite debitage as well as mano and metate preforms at varying stages of production.  In analyzing the possibility of a ground stone production center, this paper seeks to expand upon previous research at Pacbitun pertaining to resource acquisition, craft-specialization, and exchange as a result of the site?s central location in the valley during the Late Classic period (AD 600-900).

description: Patients with the complex congenital heart disease (CHD) are usually associated with right ventricular outflow tract dysfunction and typically require multiple surgical interventions during their lives to relieve the right ventricular outflow tract abnormality. Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement was used as a non-surgical, less invasive alternative treatment for right ventricular outflow tract dysfunction and has been rapidly developing over the past years. Despite the current favorable results of transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement, many patients eligible for pulmonary valve replacement are still not candidates for transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement. Therefore, one of the significant future challenges is to expand transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement to a broader patient population. This review describes the limitations and problems of existing techniques and focuses on decellularized tissue engineering for pulmonary valve stenting.

description: Species distribution models (SDMs) are necessary for measuring and predicting occurrences and habitat suitability of species and their relationship with environmental factors. We introduce a novel presence-only SDM with graph neural networks (GNN). In our model, species and locations are treated as two distinct node sets, and the learning task is predicting detection records as the edges that connect locations to species. Using GNN for SDM allows us to model fine-grained interactions between species and the environment. We evaluate the potential of this methodology on the six-region dataset compiled by National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) for benchmarking SDMs. For each of the regions, the heterogeneous GNN model is comparable to or outperforms previously-benchmarked single-species SDMs as well as a feed-forward neural network baseline model.

Dental Microwear Analysis of Cercopithecoides Williamsi
Creators: name: Geissler, Elise
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2013

description: Cercopithecoides williamsi, a Plio-Pleistocene primate, is believed to have been a terrestrial colobine monkey. Dental microwear analysis of C. williamsi specimens from South African cave sites was employed to test these assumptions. Analysis of the features shows that although the microwear signature of C. williamsi is similar to that of folivorous primates, there are also similarities with terrestrial papionins. Overall, the dental microwear analysis demonstrates that C. williamsi could have indeed been a folivorous, terrestrial monkey. A high amount of puncture pits also points to a substantial amount of grit in the diet. Similarities between the microwear features of C. williamsi and Cebus apella indicate that fruit or hard objects could have been a supplemental food of C. williamsi. The consumption of underground storage organs covered in grit would explain the heavy pitting of C. williamsi teeth. Being terrestrial, C. williamsi would have been in direct competition with terrestrial papionins.
Atlanta Public Schools (APS) Case Study: A Tale of Two Schools

description: This study concerns the effects of public school redistricting on communities in Atlanta. It is based upon interviews with people in two neighborhoods which are part of the Atlanta Public Schools (APS) system directly affected by redistricting. All schools slated to close are located in low-income, minority areas and serve similar populations. Of the ten schools selected for closing, three were saved during the final APS board meeting in April 2012, and will remain open. I spoke with people who reside in a neighborhood where a local school is slated to close, as well as those in an area where a school was saved from closing. I asked informants why they felt their schools were identified for closure and how they responded to the threat of closing. I learned that both communities organized to save their schools but with different results based on available forms of social and cultural capital.
Ethical and Sociocultural Considerations for use of Assisted Reproductive Technologies Among the Baganda OF Uganda
Creators: name: Mukasa, Martha
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2013

description: Anthropological research on the sociocultural outcomes from applications of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) for infertility, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, is greatly lacking and much needed. Narratives from individuals, couples, families, community leaders and members are particularly germane to medical anthropological studies on the intersection of science and technology in the new millennium. With ART applications still in their infancy in sub-Saharan Africa, research of this nature may be of benefit in determining how best to apply ARTs within important cultural frameworks and allow infertile couples and other recipients the opportunity to minimize adverse results. This paper draws upon theoretical perspectives from anthropology, science and technology studies, ethnographic data from my field study in Uganda, and reviews of literature, to construct theories about how for the Baganda, the proliferation of ARTs could potentially change or disrupt cultural notions of power and identity and unseat core notions of kinship.
Biocultural Consequences of Spanish Contact in the Lambayeque Valley Region of Northern Peru: Internal Enamel Micro-defects as Indicators of Early Life Stress
Creators: name: Garland, Carey
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: This study utilizes dental histological methods to analyze enamel micro-defects (Wilson bands) as indicators of early life stress in indigenous Muchik individuals interred at two sites: La Capilla Santa Mar¡a Magdalena De Eten (CSMME) (n=15) and La Capilla Del Ni¤o Serranito (CNS) (n=15), both located in the Lambayeque region of northern Peru. Individuals interred at CNS date to the Early Colonial Period (A.D. 1533-1620) and individuals interred at CSMME date to the Middle/Late Colonial Period (A.D. 1620-1760). Results reveal a fairly high prevalence of Wilson bands at both sites, with a lower prevalence at CSMME. This indicates that, over time, Muchik individuals may have been able to acclimate to life under Spanish oppression. Stress chronologies suggest that early life stress possibly resulted from inadequate and less than desirable food and/or water available for supplemental feeding during early infancy, especially around the ages of 4 and 5 months.
A Paleoethnobotanical Perspective on Late Classic Maya Cave Ritual at the Site of Pacbitun, Belize
Creators: name: Parker, Megan
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: This thesis presents the results of paleoethnobotanical investigations conducted at nine karst sites associated with the Maya site of Pacbitun in western Belize. The archaeobotanical remains were deposited during the Late Classic period and the site was abandoned at some point during this same time (c. A.D. 900). Paleoenvironmental data from the Maya Lowlands indicates that human activity contributed to regional climate change during the Late/Terminal Classic period. However, site-specific research has demonstrated a variety of responses to these social and ecological changes. The archaeobotanical data from this study is used as a proxy for understanding how people at Pacbitun ritually responded to macro-regional environmental stress. Ritual plant use at the cave sites does not conform to behavioral ecology models that predict biological, cost-fitness related responses to resource scarcity. Instead, the data supports a model of behavior based on culturally motivated ritual practices.
Mossy Oak Revisited: A Case Study in Mississippian Ceramics
Creators: name: Cadwell, Lillian
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: The research presented here seeks to better understand the relationship between the Macon Plateau site and Mossy Oak ceramics. The Early Mississippian period in central Georgia was a time of great change with emerging political centralization and social ranking. This thesis aims to better understand Macon Plateau?s relationship with outlying areas. To accomplish this objective the ceramic assemblage site from the site of Mossy Oak (11 Bi 17) is revisited and reanalyzed using spatial analysis and detailed investigations of Vining Simple Stamped pottery. Rather than taking a top-down, elite-focused approach, this thesis explores the impact of horizontal relationships between groups present at the inception of social institutions and social inequality at the dawn of the Early Mississippian and the rise of Macon Plateau.
A Bioarchaeological Comparison of Oral Health at Three Postbellum African American Cemeteries in Coastal and Central Georgia
Creators: name: Graham, Lain
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: This research is a comparative analysis of oral health from three historic African-American cemeteries in Georgia. The Area 1 (9CH1168), Area 2 (9CH875) and the Avondale (9BI164) cemeteries were excavated and relocated from 2008-2010. The aggregate population consists of 486 individuals, spanning pre-and-post-Reconstruction eras. Statistical and bioarchaeological techniques are used to address the hypothesis that differential nutrition and subsequent health outcomes significantly vary (as estimated from dental analyses), based on the cemetery?s composition, location, and individuals social status. Oral pathological conditions were characterized in an effort to identify variation between populations, while moving beyond a monolithic narrative of the African-American experience in the post-Bellum South. A statistical range of variation within and between the cemeteries was observed, revealing differences in the frequency of pathologies between cemeteries based on age and sex. Maladies most greatly afflicted Avondale?s population, Area 1 experienced the least and Area 2?s females had the most oral pathologies.
Vem Pra Rua/Come to the Street: The Power of Protest in Brazil
Creators: name: Glass, Jessica
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: This study offers an ethnographic account of the Brazilian protest movement that erupted in June of 2013. I conducted fieldwork in Rio during this time, including unstructured interviews, participant observation, unobtrusive observation, and collection of narratives to gain an understanding of what people living in Rio believe about these protests and social movements in general. The initial motivation for the protests was an increase in public transportation fare, but the movement quickly evolved into a fight for citizenship rights. With the upcoming mega-events in Rio (World Cup and Olympic Games), the city has spent billions of dollars on construction that many people think is unnecessary and ultimately useless. Brazil is a country rife with socioeconomic inequality, and many citizens lack access to having their basic needs met. Protesters in Rio argue that this money could be better spent on providing health care, education, and other fundamental necessities to the city?s population.
Traditional Healing and Medical Pluralism in an Ohio Amish Community

description: This study examines the unique cultural practices related to disease prevention and health maintenance within a Holmes County, Ohio Amish community. This research focuses on the many options for healthcare within this community and the decisions behind their use. By engaging with these Amish community members to discuss their methods of managing health, the non-Amish medical professionals who treat Amish patients can learn cultural understandings of health within the community. As we learn that there are useful techniques to health beyond the dominant biomedical model, it is valuable to incorporate more traditional methods into our existing healthcare in to boost compliance and comfort for those seeking medical help.

Evaluating Population Origins and Interpretations of Identity: a Case Study of the Lemba of South Africa
Creators: name: Engel, Jessica
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: This study compares genetics and linguistics of the Lemba, a population living primarily in South Africa, as a means to identify any possible correlation between these two sources, to better understand how identity is impacted by ancestry testing, and to examine the Lemba?s claim to Jewish ancestry with this evidence. The methods compare allele frequency data from several populations that were expected, based on Spurdle and Jenkins (1996), Casanova et al (1985), Ritte et al. (1993), Santachiara Benerecetti et al (1993), and Soodyall (2013), to be geographically proximate to and thereby more closely related the Lemban people. Results were clustered by language community to detect possible correlations. The different frequencies considered yielded dissimilar relationships between genetic and linguistic clusters, thus supporting the independence of mechanisms of linguistic and genetic change. These results contribute to the discussion of how identity can be validated or undermined by demonstrating three sources, geographic, linguistic, and genetic, by which to derive an identity and how these can produce contradictory answers.
The Fashion of Frill: The Art of Impression Management in the Atlanta Lolita and Japanese Street Fashion Community
Creators: name: Gatlin, Chancy
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: The Atlanta Lolita and Japanese Street Fashion Community is a multifaceted fashion community that developed in the early 2000s. The majority of the members wear Lolita fashion which is a fusion of Victorian era dress, Rococo costume, and various Japanese street fashions. Lolita fashion developed on the streets of Tokyo Japan in the 1990s and has since spread across the world. The Atlanta Lolita and Japanese Street Fashion Community heavily relies on the building and maintenance of impressions by its members. In this thesis, I analyze face-to-face and virtual community organization, fashion, and photography to illustrate how members of the community build their impressions, how they are maintained, or how they are threatened.
Medicinal Vessels of the First Gilded Age (1870-1929): Properties of Promise or Hokum of False Hope?
Creators: name: Cook, David
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: From the excavation of Atlanta's first municipal dumps, a collection of the city?s oldest and most popular medicines has been analyzed. The process of identifying and exploring the stories behind the medicinal vessels of the Metro Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) archaeological collection has led to several paths of inquiry. One such avenue is a look at local manufacturers, their impact, and their products.
Focused on embossed glass bottles from 1860-1920 this thesis investigates the roles of medicinal bottles as symbolic for Atlanta?s Gilded Age. I gathered detailed information on nearly 100 products represented by 222 vessels. These artifacts are derived from three sites unearthed during the MARTA excavations conducted by Georgia State University archaeologists during the late-1970s. Each site represents an urban dump in a different way: core, periphery, and neighborhood. Beyond analyzing the vessels, special attention is given to the economic connections between Atlanta?s growth and medicine producers.
Examining The Social Networks Of Internationally Married Couples And Divorced Individuals: Are Relationships Autonomous Entities?
Creators: name: Johnson-Diouf, Kimberly
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: Research on international relationships is plentiful but research on the roles of social contacts in international relationships has not been forthcoming. Additionally, recent research on companionate marriages suggests that couples who have relationships that mimic companionate marriages have weak ties to their community. This research uses participant narratives to understand the social network of internationally married couples and divorced individuals in an effort to understand the roles that social contacts may play in international marriages. The research findings challenge pre-existing arguments about the companionate model of marriage and suggest that simplistic marriage models are inadequate frameworks used to understand complex marriages.
Maya Ceramic Production in the Yalahau Region: A Diagnostic Analysis of Unslipped Sherds From Vista Alegre, Quintana Roo
Creators: name: Horne, Joseph
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2014

description: Along the northern coast of Quintana Roo, Mexico, prehistoric ceramic usage included a variety of unslipped forms. During field excavations at the Maya coastal site of Vista Alegre, Drs. Jeffrey Glover and Dominique Rissolo recovered a high volume of sherds comprising a number of vessel type-varieties and forms. Vessel fragments collected from the Vista Alegre assemblage are comprised largely of ambiguous unslipped plain and unslipped striated sherds. This study explores distinct diagnostic attributes associated with these unlipped plain and unslipped striated sherds such as paste composition, texture, color, rim forms, and handle styles. This research facilitates future ceramic research along the northern coast of Quintana Roo promoting otherwise undefined sherds into a more systematic classification based on recorded modal characteristics.
Bioarchaeological Analysis of Isolated Crania from the Elizabeth Site in the Lower Illinois River Valley
Creators: name: Jones, Daniel
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: This thesis explores the life history of six isolated skulls interred in Mound 3 of the Elizabeth site, a Middle Woodland site in the lower Illinois valley. This study employs analyses of osteological features, stable and radiogenic isotopes, and biodistance for a cross-section of the Mound 3 population (n=15), including the isolated crania. Isotopic results reveal significant variation in lead isotope ratios in enamel, and interpretively meaningful variation in strontium values. However, bone carbonate oxygen values are not significantly different. Carbon isotope values from bone carbonate revealed only sex-based dietary differences. Biodistance data indicate relatively genetic homogeneity at the site, although significant variation was present in two of the isolated crania. Ultimately, data indicate that two of the six isolated skulls likely originated from elsewhere in the valley, but that the population likely resided in the Elizabeth site vicinity in the decade preceding death, and were not outsiders.

learning mathematics. It aims to encourage visualizations of new possibilities for using affordances
of technology to, e.g., foster sense-making of mathematical contents, create successful learning
environments and teaching scenarios, innovate new ways to obtain empirical findings, or develop
research-based theories. In this article, we summarize ideas of ICTMT 14 participants on possible
future developments regarding the use of technology in mathematics education. These ideas have
emerged as a product of a cooperative discussion session during the conference, in which groups of
participants addressed three main questions together: What might the future of 1) teaching and learning mathematics, 2) technological innovation, and 3) mathematics education research look like?

Isla Palenque Revisited: An Archaeological Community Study
Creators: name: Bogle, Johnny
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: Isla Palenque is a small island located on the western coast of Panama?s Chiriqu¡ province. The island was part of a regional investigation in 1961 and 1971 by Dr. Olga Linares who was analyzing distinctive patterns related to social developments in Panama?s diverse ecology (Linares 1980). Given the regional focus of her research, she did not collect detailed, community-level data on Isla Palenque. This investigation aims for that more detailed understanding through a settlement study to elucidate aspects of the social complexity of this site. This nuance is extremely important in trying to understand this part of Central America that is characterized by much variability in the material culture. Labeled by Linares as the possible seat of a ?Paramount Chiefdom?, Isla Palenque invites us to ask what that means, how we can assess that notion, and more importantly what it says about the people who inhabited the island.
Come To The Cypress Pond: The Archaeological Survey of an Antebellum Plantation
Creators: name: Renaud, Lindsey
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: As part of my M.A. thesis, I conducted an archaeological survey on Cypress Pond Plantation, located in Albany, Georgia over the course of six months. I employed landscape theory as a theoretical framework to interpret how the landscape was physically used over time. Shovel testing, metal detecting and unit excavations were employed to perform the survey. While the focus was on the historic occupation during the Antebellum period, evidence of prehistoric activities were discovered as well. Artifacts consistent with a prehistoric lithic production site and remnants of farming equipment dating to post 1900?s are consistent with activity historically documented during that time.
Extrinsic Effects of Cranial Modification: A Case Study of Cranial Porosity and Cranial Modification Intensity in Late Intermediate Period (AD 1000 - AD 1400) Andahuaylas, Peru
Creators: name: Gadison, Davette
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description:  Body alterations such as artificial cranial modification are permanent irreversible changes to the body that become a powerful, constant visual ?salient? indicator (Torres-Rouff 2002) or life-long affiliation or demarcation of social identity (Kurin 2014). Most studies have focused on the social implications as well as typology and classification methods. Very few studies have investigated the extrinsic pathological consequences of external compression caused by the boards, pads, and bands used to create pressure at various points on the skull in order to achieve the desired modified shape. This study investigates the relationship between porotic lesions on the external cranial vault and the degree of modification intensity of the predominant cranial modification forms in the Chanka and Quechua societies from the Late Intermediate Period (AD 1000 to AD 1400) in Andahuaylas, Peru.

The Mobile Phone and You: Human Interaction and Integration with Mobile Technology
Creators: name: Miller, Ryan
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: What is the impact of mobile phones on those who use them? Does the use of mobile phones affect sociocultural systems when they are introduced? With the prevalence of the mobile phone in society today it is imperative that mobile phone use is studied. Through the use of ethnography, I have studied students at Georgia State University in order to understand the mobile phones influence on this particular culture. I have found that my participants have been changed through use of this device as it has become a part of themselves, adding functionality to users while splitting their focus between the digital world mediated by the phone and physical reality. I found that participant?s sentiments of their phones were conflicting. They praised their device while remaining wary about its effects on them and others.

The Atlanta Phoenix Project: Applications of Gamification for Online Civic Engagement
Creators: name: Bryant, Robert
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: The MARTA collection, held by Georgia State University, is a large collection of archaeological materials excavated in the late 1970s that documents the heritage of Atlanta. The current Phoenix Project is building on those original efforts and represents an ideal opportunity to explore praxis through civic engagement by making the collection easily accessible and interactive to the public through online community archaeology outreach. Key to this civic engagement is the digitization of artifacts and associated metadata as well as the use of the Heurist online data management system. In particular, I outline a three phase plan of implementing an online website that employs gamification methodologies integrated with existing social media formats to promote a diverse community of self-sustainable interaction with digital material that will benefit both Georgia State University and the community it serves. The main goal of the thesis is to provide a proof-of-concept web interface. I discuss why this is a critical first step to the broader civic engagement goals of the project, and I outline the next two phases of implementation.

Space, Settlement, and Environment: Detecting Undocumented Maya Archaeological Sites with Remotely Sensed Data
Creators: name: Vaughan, Andrew
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: This study utilizes an integrated remote sensing approach to augment settlement pattern research in the Yalahau Region of northern Quintana Roo, Mexico. The region has a long history of human occupation and an environment ranging from coasts, freshwater wetlands, forests, to fields and towns all above a porous karst geology. By utilizing various sensors (LiDAR, GeoEye and Landsat) and collection methods (satellite, aerial) as well as post-processing (band combinations, component analyses and indices) and cross-referencing the data, it is possible to generate a signature, which strongly correlates with evidence of prehistoric occupation. Field verification of a selection of identified signatures was conducted to assess the presence of human cultural material. The results of this investigation are presented together with other regional settlement pattern data in order to assess the status of a number of methodological and archaeological questions and supplement other regional data already available.
Both Ends of the Leash: Pit Bull Ownership and Activism in Atlanta, Georgia
Creators: name: Goss, Sarah
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2015

description: This thesis follows and examines the lives of people in Atlanta, Georgia who own and advocate for the controversial group of dog breeds and mixed breeds known as ?pit bulls.? The greater meaning of pit bulls within the United States is also considered from a historical and anthropological lens. This thesis uses pit bulls as a medium to explore issues of race, gender, and stigma in the United States and to consider how pit bull owners and activists use their understanding of the public around them to change ideas surrounding their dogs.

description: In 2015, the Rockefeller Foundation-Lancet Commission launched a report introducing a novel approach called Planetary Health and proposed a concept, a strategy and a course of action. To discuss the concept of Planetary Health in the context of Europe, a conference entitled: "Europe That Protects: Safeguarding Our Planet, Safeguarding Our Health" was held in Helsinki in December 2019. The conference participants concluded with a need for action to support Planetary Health during the 2020s. The Helsinki Declaration emphasizes the urgency to act as scientific evidence shows that human activities are causing climate change, biodiversity loss, land degradation, overuse of natural resources and pollution. They threaten the health and safety of human kind. Global, regional, national, local and individual initiatives are called for and multidisciplinary and multisectorial actions and measures are needed. A framework for an action plan is suggested that can be modified for local needs. Accordingly, a shift from fragmented approaches to policy and practice towards systematic actions will promote human health and health of the planet. Systems thinking will feed into conserving nature and biodiversity, and into halting climate change. The Planetary Health paradigm - the health of human civilization and the state of natural systems on which it depends - must become the driver for all policies. Quelle: © Elsevier 2021

description: Neohelops Dajoz, 2001
Dajoz (2001) recognized that New World “ Helops ” were different from Mediterranean Helops. He proposed the genus Neohelops describing the species Neohelops texanus Dajoz (Fig. 2) from the Big Bend region in Texas, USA. Though his species appears valid, his generic concept gives no putative diagnostic characters which separate this species from any other forms from the United States or Central America.
