description: The Graduate Career Consortium’s (GCC) Career Outcomes Committee identified and collected the publicly available graduate career outcomes of each of its member institutions. The compiled graduate institutional career outcomes are listed in this database, containing hyperlinks to reports or interactive dashboards displaying the outcomes. Master’s-level, graduate-level, and postdoctoral-level career outcomes were included. Inclusion criteria consisted of institutional reports or dashboards containing quantitative career outcomes (in contrast to institutions that solely included anecdotes and alumni profile stories). Institutions listing program summary statistics alone were not included. In all, we found that 63% of GCC member institutions reported their alumni career outcomes publicly. Data was collected and checked by Committee members between the 2019-2020 academic year using a current GCC member institution list at that time; this database was last updated in September, 2020. Publicly available data was collected using standard search engines (e.g., Google, institutional website search bars). Collected data was then presented to and screened by GCC membership for accuracy and completeness. The final draft was reviewed by the Committee and approved for distribution; the Committee aims to update this annually. Authors listed alphabetically by last name.

description: The role of body awareness (BA) in mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) is poorly understood. Existing research suggests a positive impact of MBIs on BA as a well as a mediating role of BA in the relationship between an MBI and reduced symptomatology. However, existing studies are few, underpowered and in need of replication. Furthermore, there is a need to explore the mechanisms involved in the relationship between MBIs, BA, and psychological symptomatology. The present study is an analysis of pre-existing data whose aims are: (1) to replicate the impact of an 8-week MBI on self-report and behavioral measures of BA in a powered and controlled study consisting of a heterogeneous clinical sample, (2) to introduce a behavioral measure of BA and explore how it correlates with self-reported BA, (3) to replicate the findings that an MBI has a positive effect on symptomatology and that BA mediates this effect, and (4) to assess the impact of an MBI on important psychological measures (i.e., experiential avoidance, self-discrepancy, rumination, self-efficacy) and explore whether these variables act alongside BA in mediating the relationship between MBI and symptomatology.

description: An in-depth study on attitudes and activation processes of My UNC Chart at UNC Health Care. UNC Health Care is a non-profit, integrated health care system owned by the State of North Carolina. UNC Health Care consists of multiple hospitals and ambulatory care (outpatient) clinics, as well as clinical programs in the UNC School of Medicine. The UNC Practice Quality and Innovation (PQI) team works with ambulatory care settings to improve patient “experiences and outcomes, operational processes, and business performance.” The goal of PQI is to make sure patients have adequate access to appropriate care. One of the areas of focus in achieving this goal is use of an online health portal known as My UNC Chart. The online patient portal is important because it helps improve patient engagement and allows patients to become active partners in their health.
High-precision differential predictions for top-quark pairs at the LHC

description: We present the first complete next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD predictions for differential distributions in the top-quark pair production process at the LHC. Our results are derived from a fully differential partonic Monte Carlo calculation with stable top quarks which involves no approximations beyond the fixed-order truncation of the perturbation series. The NNLO corrections improve the agreement between existing LHC measurements [V. Khachatryan et al. (CMS Collaboration), Eur. Phys. J. C 75, 542 (2015)] and standard model predictions for the top-quark transverse momentum distribution, thus helping alleviate one long-standing discrepancy. The shape of the top-quark pair invariant mass distribution turns out to be stable with respect to radiative corrections beyond NLO which increases the value of this observable as a place to search for physics beyond the standard model. The results presented here provide essential input for parton distribution function fits, implementation of higher-order effects in Monte Carlo generators as well as top-quark mass and strong coupling determination.

description: Hydrodynamical noise is introduced on top of Gubser's analytical solution to viscous hydrodynamics. With respect to the ultra-central collision events of Pb-Pb, p-Pb and p-p at the LHC energies, we solve the evolution of noisy fluid systems and calculate the radial flow velocity correlations. We show that the absolute amplitude of the hydrodynamical noise is determined by the multiplicity of the collision event. The evolution of azimuthal anisotropies, which is related to the generation of harmonic flow, receives finite enhancements from hydrodynamical noise. Although it is strongest in the p-p systems, the effect of hydrodynamical noise on flow harmonics is found to be negligible, especially in the ultra-central Pb-Pb collisions. For the short-range correlations, hydrodynamical noise contributes to the formation of a near-side peak on top of the correlation structure originated from initial state fluctuations. The shape of the peak is affected by the strength of hydrodynamical noise, whose height and width grow from the Pb-Pb system to the p-Pb and p-p systems.

Validation of a Perceived Invincibility Survey Instrument
Creators: name: Brown, Nancy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Perceived invincibility is an understudied concept in an adult population. The aim of this paper was to pilot test one survey, the Adolescent Invincibility Test (AIT), which was intended to measure perceived invincibility in an adolescent population, in an adult population. In a sample of 373 students, staff, and faculty at the University of North Carolina, the AIT was found to measure one domain and have sufficient internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.86). The AIT did not correlate with demographic variables nor a survey assessing propensity for taking risks. However, a statistically significant difference in means was found between men and women and between those who are ages 30 and older and those younger than 30. More research is needed in a more diverse population to evaluate the performance of the AIT in an adult civilian population.

Applying Best Practices to Tobacco Law Enforcement in the Republic of Palau
Creators: name: Hermann, Meredith
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: The Republic of Palau, a small island country in the Western Pacific, adopted the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control ("FCTC") in 2004. In 2009 Palau passed its Tobacco Control Act to enact some of the measures of the FCTC, but failed to include others. In 2015, Palau began to amend its Tobacco Control Act to bring it further into compliance with the Framework Convention. These amendments not only restrict smoking locations or enact stricter point-of-sale protections, but also strengthen the enforcement mechanisms of these laws. As Palau is considering new enforcement mechanisms, it should make sure that these tools are informed by best practice theory. This paper will address this question of tobacco law enforcement in Palau. It will provide a brief background of Palau, the FCTC, and tobacco control policies generally. It will then describe Palau's interactions with the FCTC and the need for enforcement of tobacco laws. Through outlining the Ayres and Braithwaite pyramidal model of regulatory enforcement and OECD best practices, this paper will outline a model of enforcement best practice that assists business owners in compliance while allowing for penalties for those who blatantly ignore the law. This model is then applied to Palau's tobacco control laws, to create recommendations that allow for robust enforcement and can better achieve goals of tobacco control and public health.
Low-field behavior of an XY pyrochlore antiferromagnet: emergent clock anisotropies

description: Using $\rm Er_2Ti_2O_7$ as a motivation, we investigate finite-field properties of $XY$ pyrochlore antiferromagnets. In addition to a fluctuation-induced six-fold anisotropy present in zero field, an external magnetic field induces a combination of two-, three-, and six-fold clock terms as a function of its orientation providing for a rich and controllable magnetothermodynamics. For $\rm Er_2Ti_2O_7$, we predict a new phase transition for ${\bf H}\parallel [001]$. Re-entrant transitions are also found for ${\bf H}\parallel [111]$. We extend these results to the whole family the $XY$ pyrochlore antiferromagnets and show that presence and number of low-field transitions for different orientations can be used for locating a given material in the parameter space of anisotropic pyrochlores. Finite-temperature classical Monte Carlo simulations serve to confirm and illustrate these analytic predictions.

description: It is demonstrated theoretically that a thin layer of an anisotropic antiferromagnetic (AFM) insulator can effectively conduct spin current by excitation of a pair of evanescent AFM spin wave modes. The spin current flowing through the AFM is not conserved due to the interaction between the excited AFM modes and the AFM lattice, and, depending on the excitation conditions, can be either attenuated or enhanced. When the phase difference between the excited evanescent modes is close to $π/2$, there is an optimum AFM thickness for which the output spin current reaches a maximum, that can significantly exceed the magnitude of the input spin current. The spin current transfer through the AFM depends on the ambient temperature and increases substantially when temperature approaches the Neel temperature of the AFM layer.
The differential impacts of the Affordable Care Act for employees of small versus large firms
Creators: name: Le, Natalie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: One concern about the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) was the possible negative impacts on small group employees. Small firms have fewer resources and their decision to offer employer-sponsored insurance (ESI) might be affected by new regulations in the ACA. On the other hand, the ACA established the individual exchange as well as expanded Medicaid in certain states, giving employees more choices for obtaining health insurance. Using data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) Household Component 2007-2014, we examined whether trends in ESI availability, insurance status, access to care, and financial burden differed for small group employees versus large group employees. Difference-in-difference models showed no significant differences between small group and large group employees.

A systematic review on the impact of reference pricing on drug expenditure and drug use, and its potential roles in U.S. health system
Creators: name: Liu, Ao
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Prescription drugs are major components of health care costs. Given rising pharmaceutical expenditures and the widespread use of reference pricing as a cost containment instrument abroad, I systematically reviewed the evidence evaluating reference pricing policies.  I performed a structured electronic search of peer-reviewed journals for studies published that reported on the effects of reference pricing policies on payer and patient expenditures, drug utilizations and healthcare service utilization.  My search produced 36 studies describing 22 reference-pricing policies from 15 countries. Reference-pricing policies led to decreases in payer and patient spending on prescription drugs by inducing a shift in drug use towards less expensive drugs. In addition, I found no evidence of adverse effects on health and an increased use of medical services, such as physician office visits and hospitalization, in the long term. The analysis and reporting of the effects on patient drug expenditures and patient health outcomes were limited in the included studies and administration costs were not reported. These results suggest that reference pricing may be an attractive policy strategy for the United States (U.S.) healthcare system. A value-based pricing model could be used for innovative drugs. A therapeutic reference pricing system could be implemented for the “me-too” drugs and generic drugs whereby a reference price would be set for new products of comparable clinical effectiveness. The mechanisms of introducing reference pricing in the U.S. healthcare system will add complexity to patient benefit plans, which may also undermine the benefits that the policy strategy offers.

description: We examine the performance of our recently developed LFAs-PBE exchange-correlation (XC) potential [C.-R. Pan, P.-T. Fang, and J.-D. Chai, Phys. Rev. A, 2013, 87, 052510] for the high-order harmonic generation (HHG) spectra and related properties of H2+ molecules aligned parallel and perpendicular to the polarization of an intense linearly polarized laser pulse, employing the real-time formulation of time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT). The results are compared with the exact solutions of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation as well as those obtained with other XC potentials in RT-TDDFT. Owing to its correct (-1/r) asymptote, the LFAs-PBE potential significantly outperforms conventional XC potentials for the HHG spectra and the properties that are sensitive to the XC potential asymptote. Accordingly, the LFAs-PBE potential, which has a computational cost similar to that of the popular Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) potential, can be very promising for the study of the ground-state, excited-state, and time-dependent properties of large electronic systems, extending the applicability of density functional methods for a diverse range of applications.

description: The scattering equations provide a powerful framework for the study of scattering amplitudes in a variety of theories. Their derivation from ambitwistor string theory led to proposals for formulae at one loop on a torus for 10 dimensional supergravity, and we recently showed how these can be reduced to the Riemann sphere and checked in simple cases. We also proposed analogous formulae for other theories including maximal super-Yang-Mills theory and supergravity in other dimensions at one loop. We give further details of these results and extend them in two directions. Firstly, we propose new formulae for the one-loop integrands of Yang-Mills theory and gravity in the absence of supersymmetry. These follow from the identification of the states running in the loop as expressed in the ambitwistor-string correlator. Secondly, we give a systematic proof of the non-supersymmetric formulae using the worldsheet factorisation properties of the nodal Riemann sphere underlying the scattering equations at one loop. Our formulae have the same decomposition under the recently introduced Q-cuts as one-loop integrands and hence give the correct amplitudes.

description: Ideal Weyl semimetals with all Weyl nodes exactly at the Fermi level and no coexisting trivial Fermi surfaces in the bulk, similar to graphene, could feature deep physics such as exotic transport phenomena induced by the chiral anomaly. Here, we show that HgTe and half-Heusler compounds, under a broad range of in-plane compressive strain, could be materials in nature realizing ideal Weyl semimetals with four pairs of Weyl nodes and topological surface Fermi arcs. Generically, we find that the HgTe-class materials with nontrivial band inversion and noncentrosymmetry provide a promising arena to realize ideal Weyl semimetals. Such ideal Weyl semimetals could further provide a unique platform to study emergent phenomena such as the interplay between ideal Weyl fermions and superconductivity in the half-Heusler compound LaPtBi.

description: Objectives This study’s aim was to compare the total costs and the number of averted unintended pregnancies associated with using each of the following three strategies to rule out pregnancy in women seeking contraception at public clinics in Kenya: 1) requiring women to present at their appointment while menstruating; 2) using The Pregnancy Checklist; 3) complementing the use of The Pregnancy Checklist with urine-based pregnancy tests. Methods A hybrid Decision Tree – Markov model was constructed to compare the three strategies’ cost-effectiveness and estimate the incremental cost effectiveness ratios. All estimates for base case probabilities of events and event costs were derived from peer reviewed journal articles, international organizations’ gray literature, or the International Drug Price Indicator Guide. The analysis was conducted from the perspective of the Kenyan Ministry of Health with a cycle length of one month and time horizon of one year. One-way deterministic sensitivity analyses were performed in order to address data uncertainty. Results: Under the base case scenario, complementing The Pregnancy Checklist with the use of simple pregnancy tests was estimated to be both less costly and more effective at averting unintended pregnancies than the status quo (menstruation requirement) and the use of The Pregnancy Checklist alone. As compared with the status quo, this dominant strategy cost around $1.5 million USD less annually, and averted 7,145 unintended pregnancies. Sensitivity analyses varying the service denial rate, the proportion of clients presenting at the clinic while menstruating, or the chance of pregnancy while using no method of birth control all estimated the combination strategy to be dominant, too. The model was not sensitive to varying costs. Conclusion Investing in provision of free urine-based pregnancy tests to family planning clients at public health clinics in Kenya is worthwhile, as it can save the Ministry of Health money long term, as well as avert a large number of unintended pregnancies.
Understanding diboson anomalies

description: We conduct a model-independent effective theory analysis of hypercharged fields with various spin structures towards understanding the diboson excess found in LHC run I, as well as possible future anomalies involving $WZ$ and $WH$ modes. Within the assumption of no additional physics beyond the standard model up to the scale of the possible diboson resonance, we show that a hypercharged scalar and a spin 2 particle do not have tree-level $WZ$ and $WH$ decay channels up to dimension 5 operators, and cannot therefore account for the anomaly, whereas a hypercharged vector is a viable candidate provided we also introduce a $Z'$ in order to satisfy electroweak precision constraints. We calculate bounds on the $Z'$ mass consistent with the Atlas/CMS diboson signals as well as electroweak precision data, taking into account both LHC run I and II data.

description: People cope with stress differently, whether that be on their own or reaching out to others. They may try to deal with the stress on their own, but if they do not feel that they can, that's when they may seek the help of others. However, that desire to seek out others or to suppress their emotions, can be dependent on cultural norms. This study aims to examine whether suppressing feelings may explain why some people do not seek the support of others during times of stress, and if one's cultural values can play a role in that.
SUSY Higgs Mass and Collider Signals with a Hidden Valley

description: We propose a framework of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model that can ameliorate both the SUSY Higgs mass problem and the missing superpartner problem. New vectorlike matter fields couple to the Higgs and provide new loop contributions to its mass. New Yukawa couplings are sizable and large supersymmetry breaking is not needed to lift the Higgs mass. To avoid a Landau pole for the new Yukawa couplings, these fields are charged under a new gauge group, which confines and leads to a Hidden Valley-like phenomenology. The Hidden Valley sector is almost supersymmetric and ordinary sparticles decay to exotic new states which decay back to Standard Model particles and gravitinos with reduced missing energy. We construct a simplified model to simulate this scenario and find a viable parameter space of specific benchmark models which ameliorates both of the major phenomenological problems with supersymmetry.

Comparison of U.S. Oncology Value Frameworks and Integration with Performance-based Pricing
Creators: name: Lin, Wen

Year: 2017

description: Rising cancer drug costs within the United States have raised questions regarding the accessibility and affordability of these treatments to patients. To curb costs, several organizations created value frameworks for oncology drugs. These frameworks calculate value by measuring the clinical benefit of the drug and dividing it by the cost of the drug. Currently, four U.S. value frameworks exist: the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Value Framework, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Evidence Blocks, the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER), and the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) Drugabacus. These frameworks are defined by their inclusion of three perspectives: the physician, the patient, and the payer. Each of the frameworks weighs clinical, cost, and value metrics differently based on the predominant perspective(s) associated with the framework. For example, the ASCO and NCCN frameworks are primarily used as a shared decision making tool due to their emphasis of the physician and patient perspectives while the ICER and MSKCC Drugabacus frameworks focus on the payer perspective and include population level data and health system ramifications. Due to these different interpretations of value, an integrated value frameworks approach does not exist. However, these frameworks can still be used to change the price of oncology drugs by combining them with performance-based pricing. The frameworks can drive alignment across stakeholders to define and measure clinical outcomes for performance-based pricing. More importantly, the frameworks can be used to create a new pricing process where the framework-generated value output can raise or lower the price of oncology drugs. This will facilitate purchase negotiations between manufacturers and payers based on the value of the drug to patients. While limitations like transparency concerns and regulatory barriers still exist, there is an opportunity to improve the overall value of oncology drugs and match them to the best care pathways by providing patients with the appropriate drug at the right time.

description: The minimal requirement for cosmography - a nondynamical description of the universe - is a prescription for calculating null geodesics, and timelike geodesics as a function of their proper time. In this paper, we consider the most general linear connection compatible with homogeneity and isotropy, but not necessarily with a metric. A light-cone structure is assigned by choosing a set of geodesics representing light rays. This defines a "scale factor" and a local notion of distance, as that travelled by light in a given proper time interval. We find that the velocities and relativistic energies of free-falling bodies decrease in time as a consequence of cosmic expansion, but at a rate that can be different than that dictated by the usual metric framework. By extrapolating this behavior to photons redshift, we find that the latter is in principle independent of the "scale factor". Interestingly, redshift-distance relations and other standard geometric observables are modified in this extended framework, in a way that could be experimentally tested. An extremely tight constraint on the model, however, is represented by the blackbody-ness of the Cosmic Microwave Background. Finally, as a check, we also consider the effects of a non-metric connection in a different set-up, namely, that of a static, spherically symmetric spacetime.

description: Vaccines are one of the greatest public health achievements of the last century. North Carolina currently requires children entering school to be vaccinated against 10 of the 16 CDC recommended vaccines. However, children with religious exemptions can avoid vaccination against some or all diseases, raising the potential of disease outbreaks, particularly in geographic clusters of un- and under-vaccinated children. This policy analysis evaluates 5 policy options to reduce religious exemptions to vaccine requirements in North Carolina. Outcomes of interest include numbers of children with exemptions, and estimated changes in pertussis incidence and direct medical costs associated with each policy option.
