title: Mattia Preti
Creators: name: Vakifli, Irmak
Year: 2015

description: Diese Arbeit untersucht die Bedeutung des Freskenzyklus (1650) Mattia Pretis in der Kirche Sant’ Andrea della Valle in Rom für die italienische Barockmalerei und die Andreas-Ikonographie. Die drei Darstellungen in der Apsis der Kirche, die den Zyklus bilden, sind Der Heilige Andreas, der ans Kreuz gebunden wird, Die Kreuzigung des Heiligen Andreas und Die Grablegung des Heiligen Andreas. Der Zyklus zeigt in Anlehnung an die Fresken Domenichinos in derselben Kirche ausgewählte Szenen aus dem Leben des heiligen Andreas und ist für das Oeuvre Pretis von großer Bedeutung. Er ist der erste Freskenzyklus Mattia Pretis (1650) und zugleich derjenige, der in seinem Oeuvre als erster sicher datiert werden konnte. Des Weiteren ist er eines der vorbildhaftesten Beispiele für pittura retorica, die auf das Martyrium des heiligen Andreas hinweist und spiegelt ein für das Oeuvre Pretis außergewöhnliches Stilkonglomerat wider, welches mit unterschiedlichen Erklärungen begründet werden kann. Preti stellte in seiner künstlerischen Karriere das Thema „Martyrium“ und die verschiedenen Versionen des heiligen Andreas regelmäßig dar und die interessantesten seiner Darstellungen des heiligen Andreas sind wahrscheinlich in diesem Zyklus in Sant’ Andrea della Valle enthalten. Auch aufgrund seines langen Konflikts mit dem Auftraggeber, dem Theatiner-Orden werden seine Motive bei der Ausmalung viel diskutiert. In diesem Kontext bildet die vorliegende Arbeit die aktuellste Untersuchung, die versucht, das Stilkonglomerat der Andreas-Darstellungen Pretis in Hinblick auf unterschiedliche Einflussmöglichkeiten ausführlich zu interpretieren. Die Vielfalt der Meinungen in den bisherigen Untersuchungen fällt bei der Interpretation einzelner Gemälde deutlich auf. Während in der Forschung auch die These vertreten wird, dass Preti von der Inszenierung und Dramatik Guercinos und von den Kompositionen da Cortonas beeinflusst wurde, herrscht die Auffassung vor, dass er sich Domenichino zum Vorbild genommen hatte. Oft wird die Außergewöhnlichkeit des Zyklus, insbesondere die monumentalen Figuren auf, Vorschläge da Cortonas zurückgeführt. Mattia Pretis Darstellungen des heiligen Andreas in Sant’ Andrea della Valle in Rom sind daher nicht nur aussagekräftige Beispiele der pittura retorica, deren Ursprünge im 1773 verlorengegangenen Gemälde Durante Albertis liegen, sondern auch ein geeigneter Gegenstand zur Untersuchung der stilistischen Entwicklungen in der italienischen Barockmalerei und im Oeuvre Pretis.

Subjects: subject: infrastructure investments; job creation; employment dynamics; countercyclical fiscal policy
subject: 330

description: We estimate the causal impact of a sizable German infrastructure investment program on employment at the county level. The program focused on improving the energy efficiency of school buildings, making it possible to use the number of schools as an instrument for investments. We find that the program was effective, creating one job for one year for each €25'000 of investments. The employment gains reached their peak after nine months and dropped to zero quickly after the program's completion. The reductions in unemployment amounted to two-thirds of the job creation, and employment grew predominately in the construction and non-tradable industries.

Instituting a standards-based K--12 science curriculum supplement program at the National Institutes of Health: A case study
Creators: name: Witherly, Jeffre
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Research on student achievement indicates the U.S. K-12 education system is not adequately preparing American students to compete in the 21st century global economy in the areas of science and mathematics. Congress has asked the scientific entities of the federal government to help increase K-12 science learning by creating standards-based learning tools for science classrooms as part of a "voluntary curriculum.". One problem facing federal entities, such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is the need to create science-learning tools that conform to the National Science Education Standards (NSES) for curriculum materials and, therefore, are standards-based and applicable to the K-12 curriculum. This case study sought to better understand the change process at one federal agency as it went from producing K-12 learning tools that were educational in nature to a program that produced K-12 standards-based learning tools: the NIH Science Curriculum Supplement Program (NIH SCSP). The NIH SCSP was studied to gain insight into how this change in educational approach occurred, what factors enabled or inhibited the change process, and what the long-term benefits of the NIH SCSP are to the NIH. Kurt Lewin's three-step theory of change guided data gathering and data analysis. Semi-structured interviews and programmatic document review served as the major data gathering sources. Details describing the process of organizational change at the NIH were revealed during analysis of these data following the coding of interview transcripts and written record documents. The study found the process of change at the NIH proceeded in a manner generally predicted by the Lewinian change model. Enablers to the change were cost-sharing with individual institutes, support of senior leadership, and crediting the role of individual institutes prominently in each supplement. The cost of creating a supplement was reported as the single inhibitor to the program. This case study yielded a detailed description of the process of change at this federal institution that may offer valuable insights to similar federal organizations confronting educational change. The study may also contribute to the existing body of knowledge regarding the process of organizational change in a federal setting.
title: The Capital Gains Tax: A Curse but Also a Blessing for Venture Capital Investment

description: Our study analyzes the effect of the capital gains tax on the individual investment decisions of venture capitalists. By doing so, we are able to study the decisions for a sample of 76,852 funding rounds in 32 countries from 2000 to 2012. Our results support the predictions of the theoretical model that higher capital gains tax rates are associated with fewer start-ups financed and a lower probability of receiving follow-up funding. However, the results concerning the effect on the probability of success of start-ups show that a higher tax burden is associated with a higher probability of eventual start-up success.

description: In dieser Arbeit wird die Produktion von Effekten in der Illusionskunst und in den Medien Film und Theater untersucht. Von der Annahme ausgehend, dass in Film und Literatur ähnliche, wenn nicht sogar die gleichen Effekte auftreten wie in der Zauberei, die noch dazu ähnlich hergestellt werden, wird zuerst definiert, was ein Effekt im Sinne der Zauberei überhaupt ist. Darauf folgt die Dramaturgie von Zaubertricks, die aufgeschlüsselt wird. Welche Täuschungen gibt es und wie kommen sie zustande? Wie sind Zaubertricks aufgebaut? Wie sieht die Rolle des Zauberers und des Rezipienten dabei aus? Diese und weitere Fragen über die Grundfesten der Zauberkunst werden geklärt. In Bezug auf die daraus resultierenden Feststellungen, wie das Wesen der Illusion als übergeordneter Effekt, werden Verbindungen zwischen Zauberkunst und Film herausgearbeitet. Darauffolgend werden weitere Möglichkeiten der Effektproduktion und Parallelen zur Zauberkunst in Literatur und Film, wie die Aufmerksamkeits- und Blicklenkung, anhand des Romans Prestige – Meister der Magie von Christopher Priest und der Verfilmung The Prestige von Christopher Nolan analysiert. Dabei wird die Entstehung der diegetischen Welt und wie der Rezipient in sie hineinversetzt wird, als literarisches Gegenstück zur filmischen projektiven Illusion, genauer beleuchtet. Das zuvor konstituierte Wissen über die Prinzipien der Zauberkunst und des fiktionalen Films dienen dabei genauso als Leitfaden wie die Bezugnahme auf Falsche Fährten, die Erzähloberfläche in der Literatur und narratologische Modelle.

description: The invasion and occupation of Iraq has been the center of numerous political and theoretical disputes, and as the war heads into its seventh year, U.S. forces are still deployed in the tens of thousands, at massive social and economic expense. Rather than assuming that categories like 'soldier,' and 'combat zone' refer to stable objects, this dissertation looks at the work that goes into accomplishing them in practice. Asking how combatants make themselves available as 'instruments' of state power, the answers build from an analysis of interactive meaning-making processes amongst deployed U.S. combat forces in Iraq. Utilizing publicly available audio-visual recordings made in Iraq as mediated access to empirical relationships, the arguments of this dissertation build from close readings of particular interactions between U.S. combatants and the world around them. Combining methods and insights from Ethnomethodology, Science and Technology Studies, and post-structural International Relations theory, this study points to the production and reproduction of shared understandings of who we are, what is going on, and how to respond. In making meaning, this dissertation argues, identities, combat units, and hierarchies are all effects of the depictions of the world that combatants create using concepts and discourses from the broader social and institutional contexts they find themselves within. The dissertation concludes with an analysis of how the Abu Ghraib torture scandal came about, the investigation of combat incidents, the decision not to count Iraq deaths, and a discussion about tactics between two Colonels. Running through these various issues are two pervasive discourses, one which describes combat zones as inevitably violent, and the other which describes individual soldiers and marines as legally liable rational actors. Noting how these two ways of conceptualizing war overlap to produce confusing questions of moral accountability in combat, the institutional politics of these discourses in the war in Iraq are analyzed. Building from face-to-face interactions through public debates helps illustrate the ways that discourse circulates, linking different sites in a way that makes micro/macro distinctions moot.

description: We report on two experiments that identify non-monetary incentive effects of competition. As the number of competitors increases, monetary incentives to engage in cost reduction tend to decrease. We test the hypothesis that there are non-monetary incentive effects of competition going in the opposite direction. In the experiments we change the number of competitors exogenously keeping the monetary incentives to spend effort constant. The first experiment shows that subjects spend significantly more effort in duopolistic and oligopolistic markets than in a monopoly. The second experiment focuses on social comparisons as one potential mechanism for this effect. It shows that competition turns the effort decisions of competing managers into strategic complements.

Publisher: name: Universitätsbibliothek der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München

Subjects: subject: health risk denial; optimal expectations; motivated beliefs; disease prevention; self-protection
subject: 330

description: People deny health risks, invest too little in disease prevention, and are highly sensitive to the price of preventative health care, especially in developing countries. Moreover, private sector R and D spending on developing-country diseases is almost non-existent. To explain these empirical observations, I propose a model of motivated belief formation, in which an agent's decision to engage in health risk denial balances the psychological benefits of reduced anxiety with the physical cost of underprevention. I use the model to study firms' price-setting behaviour and incentive to innovate. I also show that tax-funded prevention subsidies are welfare enhancing.
Expectancy processes in cognitive enhancement by nicotine
Creators: name: Harrell, Paul T.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Cognitive enhancement is reported as a motive for smoking (Gilbert, Sharpe, Ramanaiah, Detwiler, & Anderson, 2000). Cognitive enhancement by nicotine, as well as affective processes, may be mediated and moderated by expectancies about nicotine, as seen in the placebo effect. To investigate this phenomenon, abstinent smokers smoked either nicotine or denicotinized cigarettes. Nicotine dose was crossed with varying instructions that the cigarette would either enhance or impair performance in a 2 X 2 factorial design. Performance, mood, somatic and nicotine withdrawal effects were assessed. Daily cigarette smokers reported changes in their beliefs about nicotine's effects on performance consistent with response expectancy manipulations. Both nicotine content and the expectancy manipulation affected participants' perceptions of the cigarette. Nicotine given to abstinent regular smokers led to an increase in RVIP sensitivity. Results suggest that expectancy manipulations should be further investigated for treatment implications, as well as for relevance to studies of drug effects.

description: This dissertation is composed by three essays on agricultural development with focus on three different developing countries: Bolivia, Philippines and Mexico. These essays aim to analyze different issues related to agricultural economics from a development perspective by using three data sets representative of different agricultural communities and collected at the household level in specific rural regions located in the aforementioned countries. The first essay "Evaluating Biodiversity and Yields: Impact of Access to Markets and Transaction Costs for Potato Farmers in Bolivia" explains the relationship between access to markets and transaction costs on intracrop biodiversity and analyzes the effect of agricultural diversification on yields using data from potato farmers in Bolivia. After dividing the sample into two sub samples of farmers: integrated and non integrated to the seeds market, the results show that transportation costs reduce intracrop biodiversity. With respect to the relationship between biodiversity and yields, the results are contrasting. Experiencing higher levels of intracrop biodiversity does not affect productivity for the farmers who are integrated to the seeds market while for non integrated farmers the demand for intracrop biodiversity reduces yields. The second essay "Assessing the Impact of Gendered Labor Markets in the Rural Philippines" is an intergenerational analysis of the relationship between women's participation in non agricultural activities and children's nutrition. Using longitudinal data collected in Bukidnon, Philippines in 1985 and 2003, the results from instrumental variable regressions provide substantial evidence to confirm that mothers' participation in non agricultural activities improves children's level of nutrition. In addition, vertical transmission of wealth and bargaining power as well as horizontal transmission of social norms do indirectly affect children's welfare by increasing the probability of their mothers' participating in non agricultural activities. Lastly, the third essay "The Impact of PROCAMPO on Agricultural Productivity and Production Choices of Mexican Farmers" evaluates the impact of PROCAMPO which is a decoupled agricultural subsidy implemented in Mexico since 1994. Using the nationally representative ENHRUM data set collected in the year of 2002 in rural areas in Mexico, this paper measures the impact of participating in PROCAMPO on outcomes closely linked to agricultural productivity. Results obtained implementing a propensity score matching provide evidence that PROCAMPO has an impact mainly on small farmers through input increase and technology use.

description: We analyze the competition in bonus taxation when banks compensate their managers by means of fixed and incentive pay and bankers are internationally mobile. Banks choose bonus payments that induce excessive managerial risk-taking to maximize their private benefits of existing government bailout guarantees. In this setting the international competition in bonus taxes may feature a 'race to the bottom' or a 'race to the top', depending on whether bankers are a source of net positive tax revenue or inflict net fiscal losses on taxpayers as a result of incentive pay. A 'race to the top' becomes more likely when governments' impose only lax capital requirements on banks, whereas a 'race to the bottom' is more likely when bank losses are partly collectivized in a banking union.

Towards a critical pedagogy of possibility: Hip hop and spoken word by Arab-Americans as cultural action for freedom

description: An American "ideology of miseducation" has led to pervasive misunderstandings about Arabs and Islam (Kincheloe & Steinberg, 2006, p. 33) among the general public. This miseducation has fueled the Clash of Civilizations paradigm that has driven relations between America and the Arab and Muslim worlds. The false binary of "us versus them" sets millions of people in opposition to one another. This framing assumes homogeneity within these civilizations as it defines cultures as static constructs and overlooks their interconnected nature (Said, 2003), made evident by those who are both "us" and "them," such as Arab-Americans. To find a new way forward, the clashing civilizations worldview must be deconstructed and replaced with one that seeks greater understanding, one that seeks to humanize and coexist with the perceived "other" without the suppression of difference. Arab-Americans have a significant role to play in building bridges of critical understanding and are in need of social spaces in which to participate in the evolving American democracy. A burgeoning hip hop movement has organically emerged as a vehicle to empower Arab-Americans to counter misrepresented social constructions of Arabs, negotiate identity and construct their own narrative in community, and create new avenues and spaces for democratic participation. This study explores the critical pedagogy of possibility that is facilitated through the cultural production of hip hop and spoken word by Arab-Americans, given the socio-political context, as well as how hip hop and spoken word are contributing to internal dialogue and broadening public space. The study gathered data through written interviews with 29 Arab-American hip hop and spoken word artists, a survey of 386 Arab-Americans, and a document review. The results of the study include a discussion of the intersection of factors that gave rise to hip hop and spoken word within the Arab-American community, the transformative power of a critical pedagogy of possibility, and the ways hip hop and spoken word have facilitated the creation of an alternative space for Arab-American participation and democratic dialogue. The implications of the findings for American schools and universities are discussed, and recommendations for future research are provided.

title: Discrete Choice with Presentation Effects
Creators: name: Breitmoser, Yves
Publisher: name: Universitätsbibliothek der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: discrete choice; presentation effects; utility estimation; counterfactual predictions; laboratory experiment
subject: 330

description: Experimenters have to make theoretically irrelevant decisions concerning user interfaces and ordering or labeling of options. Such presentation decisions affect behavior and cause results to appear contradictory across experiments, obstructing utility estimation and policy recommendations. The present paper derives a model of choice allowing analysts to control for both presentation effects and stochastic errors in econometric analyses. I test the model in a comprehensive re-analysis of dictator game experiments. Controlling for presentation effects, preference estimates are consistent across experiments and predictive out-of-sample, highlighting the fundamental role of presentation for choice, and this notwithstanding the possibility of reliable estimation and prediction.
