Jornalismo Cultural: A evolução da Cultura no Diário de Notícias entre os anos 2000 e 2010
Creators: name: Azevedo, Celiana
Publisher: name: SOPCOM: Associação Portuguesa de Ciências da Comunicação
Year: 2013

description: Como parte do projeto Cultura na Primeira Página, financiado pela FCT, esta pesquisa propõe o desenvolvimento de uma profunda análise em um dos principais jornais portugueses: Diário de Notícias. O objetivo é identificar e analisar nas primeiras páginas que contenham algum tema relacionado com Cultura e verificar como esta informação é tratada nas páginas interiores do jornal. Essa pesquisa empírica analisou a primeira década do século XXI: os anos 2000 e 2010. Para isso, coletamos dados dos arquivos do jornal, para que fosse possível quantificar as primeiras páginas, suplementos especializados, para além dos recursos humanos e materiais investidos na cobertura cultural. A abordagem metodológica foi essencial para responder as seguintes questões, nomeadamente: a) qual foi o impacto das mudanças no modelo de jornalismo cultural em Portugal durante os anos 2000 e 2010? b) de que forma o jornalismo cultural evoluiu levando em consideração as mudanças nos media, na economia e no ambiente social português? Concluímos que mesmo considerando as mudanças mediáticas, económicas e sociais, o que podemos concluir é que a cultura, tanto em 2000 como em 2010, teve espaço neste veículo de comunicação e esteve presente na primeira página juntamente com outras temáticas de destaque.

description: This dissertation describes a series of experiments exploring the intricate relationship between sleep and Emotional Empathy, i.e., the ability to understand someone else’s emotions through vicarious sharing. First, I used a sleep deprivation protocol, in which sleep quality was experimentally manipulated, to test the hypothesis that sleep deprivation negatively affects the Emotional Empathy of healthy individuals (Chapter 3). The findings of this study revealed a blunting of Emotional Empathy responses across all valences for participants in the sleep deprivation group compared to participants in the control groups. I then tested the hypothesis that sleep quality accounts for variability in individuals’ empathic responses by looking at effects of natural occurring changes in sleep quality on Emotional Empathy (Chapter 4). In this study, I collected subjective (questionnaires) and objective (actigraphy) measures of sleep and used a sophisticated statistical analysis to reduce the number of collected sleep variables and generate independent factors that were then entered into a series of stepwise regressions. The results of this study showed that the subjective sleep quality factor best explained participants’ Emotional Empathy responses to negative images compared to neutral, while the total sleep duration factor best explained overall Empathy scores. Finally, to test the hypothesis of a modulatory role of sleep quality on the neural activity of areas identified as components of the Emotional Empathy network, I conducted a Region of Interest (ROI) analysis, and measured Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) signal change while participants performed an Emotional Empathy task. In addition, I tested the effects of sleep quality on the task based functional connectivity between the selected ROIs. The data revealed decreased BOLD signal change in a selective region within the left anterior insula for individuals with poor subjective sleep quality together with increased functional connectivity between subcomponents of the anterior insula, indicating lower functional specialization. Overall, these studies suggest a detrimental effect of poor sleep quality on Emotional Empathy and its underlying neural mechanisms. These findings could benefit individuals affected by sleep disorders but also bring insight on the importance of considering sleep loss in daily life as a detrimental factor when planning work schedules.

description: O setor cultural e criativo (SCC) português, estruturado em três esferas - “Atividades Nucleares”, “Indústrias Culturais” e “Atividades Criativas” - foi responsável por 2,8% da riqueza criada em Portugal em 2006. No SCC persistem profundas diferenças e oportunidades no que respeita às fontes de financiamento. Neste estudo, vão ser analisados seis projetos financiados de forma distinta: público, privado, mecenato, patrocínio, financiamento coletivo e business angels. O objetivo é verificar se a fonte de financiamento altera a forma de comunicação. A análise empírica desenvolveu-se de outubro de 2011 a setembro de 2012, a partir de análise de conteúdo a entrevistas realizadas aos promotores dos projetos. Houve o cuidado de incluir as novas possibilidades de financiamento, como o financiamento coletivo (crowdfunding) e os business angels. Procurouse definir o modelo de negócios para cada caso, enquanto reflexo da sua identidade e da forma como pretende implementar-se. A partir das entrevistas semi-estruturadas, aplicou-se o modelo de negócios baseado nos nove blocos do Business Model Canvas, um modelo visual, prático, diferenciador e tangível, assente na ideia do storytelling, onde todas as mensagens são transmitidas com recurso a imagens, palavras ou pequenas frases. Quem tem uma ideia precisa de a sintetizar num modelo de negócios para posteriormente passar à sua implementação. A comparação dessa síntese elaborada a partir das entrevistas permitirá a resposta às questões de investigação. É expectável que as formas de financiamento alterem o modelo de negócios e a forma de comunicação interna e externa dos projetos. Os resultados alcançados sugerem que, contrariamente ao esperado, nos seis casos analisados, as opções de comunicação da proposta de valor são semelhantes. As tendências principais têm por base o contacto direto e formatos online de comunicação. Outra análise, fortemente ligada com a comunicação, permite constatar que o mote dos projetos passa por envolver pessoas e protagonizar mudança pela oferta de produtos e experiências únicas que culminam numa transformação da vida das pessoas. A experiência encerra a ligação entre a criatividade e as pessoas e é nesta experiência que reside a proposta de valor do SCC e dos seus projetos.

O figurino na construção das Personagens e do Drama da Ficção Cinematográfica

description: Nos filmes Vertigo (Alfred Hitchcock, 1958), La Strada (Federico Fellini, 1954) e The Philadelphia Story (George Cukor, 1940), tanto a qualidade dos figurinos como a escolha criteriosa dos mesmos para cada cena vai de encontro à própria realização no seu todo, sendo que os mesmos assumem posições particulares na composição, narrativa e significados das personagens – tornado claro que sem eles as histórias do quotidiano não seriam contadas na sua plenitude. A performance do actor, impulsionada por uma postura e atitude inerentes à personagem que interpreta, é reforçada na sua interiorização e ao nível da projecção do seu papel, por ser emoldurada por uma dialéctica em que o figurino - no seu sentido lato, incluindo maquilhagem e acessórios - assume umas vezes plano de relevo como elemento narrativo e outras apenas compõe a mise-en-scéne. É uma leitura de conjunto, aquela do espectador, fruto de um minucioso design de produção que possibilita a recriação de envolvências e espaços íntimos, sociais e não lugares, facilitando a apropriação e vivência desses espaços pelos personagens e logo pelo espectador. Considerando que a imagem da personalidade projectada é interpretada segundo um determinado sistema perceptual com referências ao imaginário colectivo, as emoções despoletadas convergem, simultaneamente, com a ilusão de realismo pretendida no guião e pelo próprio realizador, e tal só é possível pela recriação de certa visualidade cénica, iluminação e uso de determinados adereços, para além da escolha dos figurinos.

title: Parallel Product of Maps and Construction of Regular Maps
Creators: name: Asciak, Kirstie Alice
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2024

description: A map is a cellular embedding of a connected graph on a closed surface. An automorphism of a map is a permutation of its flags that preserves the cell structure of the map. The group of all automorphisms of a map acts freely on the flag set of the map. If this action is also transitive, and hence regular, the map itself is regular. Regularity of a map can be interpreted as the largest level of ‘internal symmetry’ a map exhibits.
A regular map of type (k, m), that is of face length m and valency k, can be identified with smooth quotients of extended (2, k, m )-triangle groups, which are generated by three involutions whose products have prescribed orders 2, m and k. Similarly, orientably-regular maps of the same type can be identified with smooth quotients of the ordinary (2, k, m )-triangle groups, constituting the ‘even’ subgroup of index 2 of the extended (2,k, m )-triangle group.
This Thesis considers construction of regular and orientably-regular maps with specified external symmetries, in particular, with specified invariance to rotational powers. Given a map M of type (k, m ) and an integer j relatively prime to k, the operator of a jth rotational power constructs a new map M(j) from M by replacing all the local rotations by their jth powers. If M is (orientably-) regular, then so is M(j). If M(j) is isomorphic to M, then j is an exponent of M. The collection of exponents of M forms a group isomorphic to a subgroup of the group of units mod k.
We consider the following:
1. Given k and a group U of units mod k, does there exist an (orientably-)regular map of valency k with exponent group U?
2. Given m and k, does there exist an (orientably-) regular map of type (k, m) with trivial exponent group?

description: We report on the first X-ray images of the Phoenix dwarf galaxy, taken with \emph{XMM-Newton} in July 2009. This local group dwarf galaxy shares similarities with the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) including a burst of star formation $\sim$50 Myr ago. The SMC has an abundance of High Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) and so we have investigated the possibility of an HMXB population in Phoenix with the intention of furthering the understanding of the HMXB-star formation rate relation. The data from the combined European Photon Imaging Cameras (EPIC) were used to distinguish between different source classes (foreground stars, background galaxies, AGN and supernova remnants) using EPIC hardness ratios and correlations with optical and radio catalogues. Of the 81 X-ray sources in the field of view, six are foreground stars, four are galaxies and one is an AGN. The remaining sources with optical counterparts have log($\frac{f_X}{f_{opt}}$) consistent with AGN in the local universe. Further investigation of five sources in the field of view suggests they are all background AGN. Their position behind the gas cloud associated with Phoenix makes them a possible tool for further probing the metallicity of this region. We find no evidence for any HMXBs in Phoenix at this time. This rules out the existence of the X-ray persistent supergiant X-ray binary systems. However the transient nature of the Be/X-ray binaries means we cannot rule out a population of these sources but can conclude that it is not extensive.

description: This qualitative study examined the experiences of rejected asylum seekers from Kosova in order to contribute to the paucity of literature on rejected asylum seekers. Grounded in postcolonial theory and through a Critical Discourse Analysis of interviews with rejected asylum seekers and Kosova’s Repatriation Strategy, the study examined dominant discourses which shape the repatriation process in Kosova. The main findings illustrate the European Union (EU)-Kosova power imbalance and the pervasiveness of the EU as ‘exclusive’ discourse is crucial in shaping experiences of repatriation and the identities of rejected asylum seekers. These findings add to the body of existing repatriation literature and provide important implications for reparation policies as well as social work theory, practice, and education.
Resonances in 28Si+28Si. II

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Resonances observed in the 28Si+28Si collision are studied by the molecular model. In the preceding paper, it is clarified that at high spins in 28Si+28Si (oblate-oblate system), the stable dinuclear configuration of the system is equator-equator touching one, and that the axially asymmetric shape of the stable configuration of 28Si+28Si gives rise to a wobbling motion ($K$-mixing). There, the normal modes around the equilibrium have been solved and various excited states have been obtained. Those states are expected to be the origin of a large number of resonances observed. Hence their physical quantities are analyzed theoretically. The results are compared with the recent experiment performed in Strasbourg and turn out to be in good agreement with the data. Disalignments between the orbital angular momentum and the spins of the constituent 28Si nuclei in the resonance state are clarified. Moreover the analyses of the angular correlations indicate characteristic features for each normal-mode excitation. Thus it is possible to identify the modes, and a systematic experimental study of angular correlation measurements is desired.

Youth Apprenticeship: What Impact Has This Program Had in British Columbia?
Creators: name: Langill, Lindsay
Publisher: name: Graduate Studies
Year: 2015
Subjects: Education--Industrial

description: This research was designed to measure the effectiveness of a youth apprenticeship program in British Columbia. The program, known as the Accelerated Credit Enrolment in Industry Training (ACE IT) program, has been operational since 2004, yet there is a dearth of research surrounding this program and vocational education within British Columbia. This dissertation addressed two basic questions: 1) Did the ACE IT program improve the value of high school in the eyes of stakeholders? 2) Did the ACE IT program have other positive impacts? This study was situated within the pragmatic paradigm with a constructivist orientation and utilized a mixed-methods design that included questionnaires and interviews. Key findings of the study were the following: 1) the program was highly successful in the eyes of all stakeholders, 2) the program improved high school graduation rates, 3) the program was best delivered at the college, 4) cooperative learning strategies were beneficial to ACE IT learning, and 5) students of the program benefited by getting a head start on their career path. This research will be of interest to multiple stakeholders such as the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Advanced Education, school district administrators, and others involved in educational curriculum and policy design, nationally and internationally. This work also provides recommendations and data that other researchers may wish to capitalize upon for future research.

A partir dessas teorias pressupomos que tais imagens possuem conteúdo e significados representacionais das manifestações e identidades culturais populares das festas e dos santos católicos. A pesquisa, ainda em andamento, já aponta que há um olhar comum ao se retratar a cultura popular no veículo de comunicação. Um olhar cujas características são de um paradigma dominante que exclui conhecimentos ditos não eruditos.

Retrofuturismo e Cultura Steampunk: apropriações no contexto brasileiro
Creators: name: Pegoraro, Éverly
Publisher: name: SOPCOM: Associação Portuguesa de Ciências da Comunicação
Year: 2013

description: Um verdadeiro fascínio pelo passado tem acompanhado a sociedade contemporânea. Entretanto, percebe-se que essa admiração assume características distintas, principalmente entre algumas culturas urbanas adeptas do retrofuturismo, entendido como a mistura entre elementos do passado (numa caracterização retro) com tecnologia futurística. Trata-se de uma transgressão negociada entre passado, presente e futuro que explora os limites e as tensões entre a racionalidade e a alienação provenientes dos avanços da tecnologia. Este artigo propõe-se a detalhar algumas das características do retrofuturismo encontradas em uma de suas vertentes: a cultura urbana conhecida como steampunk, cuja origem se deu na literatura de ficção científica. A proposta do texto divide-se em duas partes. A primeira analisa alguns aspectos do discurso retrofuturista, utilizando dois filmes como ponto de partida: The Golden Compass (2007) e 9 (2009). A segunda etapa centra-se na concepção retrofuturista do steampunk e sua respectiva ressignificação pelos adeptos que compõem a Loja Paraná do Conselho Steampunk, localizada em Curitiba, capital do Estado do Paraná, no Brasil.

description: This thesis explores the theological assertions of the philosopher Slavoj Žižek. Žižek, an atheist and a materialist, has produced a rather substantial body of work concerning Christianity in general and Christian theology specifically. My aim here is several. First, to provide an intellectual portrait of the dominant themes and ideas that emerge from Žižek’s earliest writings to his most recent. Second, to show how certain tensions which emerged in these earlier writings provided the impetus for his later interest to Christian theology. As well, I will argue that Žižek’s specific form of Christian theology echoes the themes and tensions announced by Radical theology, I shall show this via a study of the dominant themes that are prevalent in Thomas Altizer’s Death of God Theology. Finally, in my analysis of Žižek’s various theological claims I set out to describe the actual form of Christianity which surfaces from Žižek’s encounter with Christianity, by asking: what is the image of Christ that emerges from Žižek’s analysis? Why did Christ incarnate in flesh and have to die according to Žižek’s theology? And what does it mean to be a Christian, transformed by Christ, resulting from the interaction between Žižek and Christian theology?

description: Este artigo objetiva discutir sobre a influência da mídia, sobretudo da televisão, como co-produtora identitária da população. Utiliza-se como referencial teórico, os Estudos Culturais e a colaboração destes para um novo olhar sobre a cultura e a construção de identidades. Parte-se aqui, da concepção de identidade como um processo que se constroi ao longo do tempo, através do contato com o outro. A metodologia usada nesse trabalho refere-se à revisão bibliográfica de autores que teorizam sobre a temática de análise. Conclui-se que, na era contemporânea, de esfacelamento do Estadonação e perda de referência dos sujeitos, a televisão tem um papel ambivalente de construção de identidades. De um lado, atua como uma fonte de legitimação de identidades nacionais, ofertando ao público um lugar de representação e semelhança. De outro, tenta inseri-lo num contexto global, provocado pela aceleração do processo de globalização, que produz cada vez mais, realidades identitárias híbridas.

Consumo cultural de jovens em tempo de convergência midiática

description: A convergência midiática, conceito proposto por Henry Jenkins (2009) engloba o fluxo de conteúdo através de múltiplos suportes, a cooperação entre mercados midiáticos e o comportamento das audiências. Por isso, para entender o processo de convergência que vivemos atualmente, é preciso compreendê-lo como uma transformação cultural, que altera a lógica pela qual a indústria midiática opera e pela qual os consumidores processam o conteúdo recebido. Nesse sentido, a nossa proposta de pesquisa está relacionada com a posse das ou acesso às tecnologias digitais. Tomando como premissa a ideia de que o processo de convergência midiática não trata apenas da inserção de diferentes mídias ou linguagens dentro de um único suporte, entende-se que ela extrapola questões técnicas e passa a ter que ver também com a ação de produtores e consumidores de conteúdos midiáticos. Falar de convergência implica, também, levar em consideração o atual contexto de acesso móvel a web, por meio de aparelhos que possuem convergência de funções. O acesso à web não se faz apenas de modo isolado, de dentro de um escritório, mas sim em qualquer lugar, para quem tem condições técnicas e habilidades para estar conectado. A cultura da mobilidade (SANTAELLA, 2007, p.18) é fruto das mídias de comunicação sem fio, móveis, que falam da presença mediada, tele presença, presença ausente, distância virtual, ubiquidade, todas elas expressões que colocam em questão antigas certezas sobre nossa corporeidade. Como disse Jenkins (2009, p.8) estamos numa época de grandes transformações, e todos nós temos três opções: temê-las, ignorá-las ou aceitá-las. Desta forma, nossa proposta aqui é pensar os espaços de circulação e fluxos de consumo, que nesse panorama envolve a interatividade, a participação e o encadeamento midiático (PRIMO, 2008), potencializados pela configuração da Web 2.0 e a nova cultura de acesso, propiciada pela mobilidade, atentando para as táticas de apropriação, reconfiguração, produção e interação dos públicos.

description: The usual $ε,δ$-definition of the limit of a function (whether presented at a rigorous or an intuitive level) requires a "candidate $L$" for the limit value. Thus, we have to start our first calculus course with "guessing" instead of "calculating". In this paper we criticize the method of using calculators for the purpose of selecting candidates for $L$. We suggest an alternative: a working formula for calculating the limit value L of a real function in terms of infinitesimals. Our formula, if considered as a definition of limit, is equivalent to the usual $ε,δ$-definition but does not involve a candidate $L$ for the limit value. As a result, the Calculus becomes to "calculate" again as it was originally designed to do.

Genomic and Metabolic Studies of Two Candidate Phyla of Bacteria
Creators: name: Jones, Gareth Mathew
Publisher: name: Graduate Studies
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Microbiology
subject: FOS: Biological sciences

description: Candidate phyla (or candidate divisions) are deeply rooted groups of Bacteria or Archaea that currently lack cultivated representatives. By combining traditional enrichment and cultivation practices with modern metagenomic based techniques, this work describes two candidate phyla more thoroughly than could have been produced by focusing on one aspect alone. Members of the candidate phylum OP11 were enriched from two geographically distinct geothermal springs: one from Ngatamariki, Waikato, New Zealand and the other from Lakelse, B.C., Canada. The organisms were grown under thermophilic and anaerobic conditions, using cellulose as the sole substrate. Stable isotope probing was also used to confirm carbon flow from cellulose to OP11 in both sites. Continued studies on the Canadian spring demonstrated that the OP11 organism was possibly utilizing H2 and a degradation byproduct of cellulose under fermentative conditions as its energy source. Additionally, this work provides evidence for symbiosis between the OP11 and a member of the Chloroflexi phylum; a result that has not been demonstrated previously. Metagenomic analysis of the two organisms further described the relationship, where the Chloroflexi was likely acting as the primary cellulolytic organism, and OP11 was consuming degradation byproducts. Additionally, a natural FeSO4 spring site, located in Kootenay National Park, B.C., Canada was also studied for the prevalence of the WPS-2 candidate phylum. The work includes an environmental survey using 16S rRNA gene based community analysis to demonstrate the candidate phylum’s distribution throughout the site. High-throughput metagenomic sequencing and microfluidic cell sorting coupled with whole genome sequencing were used to create a genomic reconstruction of a member of the WPS-2 candidate phylum. This represents the first genomic reconstruction from this group of organisms. Through this work, substantial progress was made in further describing several deeply rooted, uncultured groups of bacteria. It presents a thorough exploration of these largely unstudied organisms, and presents a discussion on combining modern metagenomics based techniques with more traditional tools of environmental microbiology in order to describe currently uncultivated organisms.
2*2 random matrix ensembles with reduced symmetry: From Hermitian to PT-symmetric matrices
Creators: name: Gong, Jiangbin

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: A possibly fruitful extension of conventional random matrix ensembles is proposed by imposing symmetry constraints on conventional Hermitian matrices or parity-time- (PT-) symmetric matrices. To illustrate the main idea, we first study 2*2 complex Hermitian matrix ensembles with O(2) invariant constraints, yielding novel level-spacing statistics such as singular distributions, half-Gaussian distribution, distributions interpolating between GOE (Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble) distribution and half Gaussian distributions, as well as gapped-GOE distribution. Such a symmetry-reduction strategy is then used to explore 2*2 PT-symmetric matrix ensembles with real eigenvalues. In particular, PT-symmetric random matrix ensembles with U(2) invariance can be constructed, with the conventional complex Hermitian random matrix ensemble being a special case. In two examples of PT-symmetric random matrix ensembles, the level-spacing distributions are found to be the standard GUE (Gaussian Unitary Ensemble) statistics or "truncated-GUE" statistics.

description: O desenvolvimento humano e o progresso em geral acontecem, desde que alicerçados no impulso e dinamização do equacionamento e funcionamento de uma estrutura sinergética positiva e de contemplação ilimitadamente abrangente e sem exceções. As especificidades educomunicacionais inclusivas ajudam a promover e a instaurar esse novo paradigma educomunicacional, numa dimensão mais universal e com lugar para todos. Através do diálogo, empenho e desempenho na socialização e comunicabilidade de todos, podem conceber-se e implementar-se especificidades comunicacionais aumentativas e alternativas e as necessárias condições inclusivas em todas as áreas do conhecimento, de forma a sentirmo-nos todos confortavelmente envolvidos num abraço inclusivo desse mundo de diferenças, em que todos cabemos. A educomunicação, consubstanciada no polinómio educação-comunicação/TIC-cultura inclusiva-pedagogia comunicacional, é o caminhar livre e digno, ético e socializante, numa perspetiva ecoevolutiva humana profícua e eticizante da vida).

Molecular and cellular studies of the West Nile virus NS2B/NS3 protease
Creators: name: Condotta, Stephanie Anne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: West Nile virus (WNV) is the most widely distributed arthropod-borne virus globally. It can cause a potentially fatal infection and has become a public health concern in North America since its introduction in 1999. Currently, there are no vaccines or treatments available for human WNV infections. As such, it is important to understand the virus life cycle, in order to develop effective therapeutics. The WNV protease heterocomplex, NS2B/NS3, is a prime target for antiviral therapy and has become the focus of much research. It is important to understand protease function first, in order to develop effective inhibitors. The overall goal of this thesis was to gain a better understanding into the function of the full-length NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex within the intracellular microenvironment. I hypothesized that there are critical residues essential for the interaction between NS2B and NS3 that affect protease activity and protein stability. The first aim of this project was to generate a cell-based fluorescent substrate assay to investigate the protease activity of the full-length NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex within the cell. My results demonstrate that the full-length NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex functions differently within the context of the cell, compared to what has been previously observed in vitro (Chapter 2). In the second aim, I investigated NS2B function on NS3 protease cis-cleavage and trans-cleavage activity. My results reveal an important dual role the NS2B protein plays in the proper function of the full-length NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex (Chapter 3). In the third aim, I utilized the information gathered to rationally design and test a serine protease inhibitor directed against the full-length NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex (Chapter 4). Taken together, my results highlight the importance of utilizing cell-based assays to assess protease activity, as this allows for the investigation of NS2B/NS3 protease function in a more physiologically relevant environment. The results presented in this thesis further our understanding of the activity of the full-length WNV NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex within the context of the cell. The information gathered gives insight into the regulation of viral protease function that could be utilized in the rational drug design towards the WNV NS2B/NS3 protease heterocomplex.

description: The Physician Achievement Review is a multisource feedback program of practicing physicians that intends to assess a wide range of professional competencies. This longitudinal study focused on the reliability and validity of the PAR assessment in a large sample of adult medicine specialists (n = 404). Scores on all surveys were high and negatively skewed. All surveys had high internal consistency reliability and moderate generalizability. The three to four factor solutions proposed at Iteration 1 provided for moderate model fit using confirmatory factor analysis at Iteration 2. Scores increased over time, but the effect sizes were small to moderate. There was little or no correlation between self-assessment and medical colleagues on corresponding attributes. Future research should focus on decreasing score inflation, improving the internal structure of the surveys, and understanding factors that influence score improvements over time.
