Institutionalization of knowledge management in the federal government
Creators: name: Alers-Tealdi, Lourdes
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: Despite knowledge management studies being widely attributed to the business field, it was Public Administration that actually pioneered scholarly work on the subject.  In 1975, the Public Administration Review published a knowledge management symposium that not only coined the term “knowledge management,” but also broadly examined “knowledge administration.”  Relevant to the study of knowledge management is the idea of promoting knowledge sharing within the organization.  Since the 1990s, when U.S. federal agencies initiated their efforts on knowledge management, knowledge sharing has become a key management proposition to the executive leadership within the federal government.  There are two main driving forces for promoting knowledge sharing in U.S. federal agencies.  First, an aging workforce requires the U.S. federal government to prepare for the transfer of knowledge from one generation of employees to the next.  Second, knowledge sharing could be crucial for the U.S. federal workforce to accomplish the diverse and challenging missions of the U.S. federal government.  For an agency to accomplish its mission, we need a better understanding of the mechanisms that lead to knowledge sharing.   Using an institutional theory perspective, this study hypothesizes that culture, incentives and technology influences knowledge sharing behavior in U.S. federal agencies.  The study uses a mixed methods design in which both qualitative and quantitative research methods are applied to obtain a better understanding of the institutionalization of knowledge sharing in U.S. federal agencies and to empirically verify the theoretical framework proposed in the study.  Using the survey responses of U.S. federal employees within the executive branch agencies, the study finds that while culture and incentives influence knowledge sharing behaviors within an agency, technology has a neutral effect on knowledge sharing behavior within an agency.  Given the scarcity of research in Public Administration on knowledge management, this research will contribute empirical work to the literature that hopes to not only deliver theoretical fruitfulness but also provide managerial direction to public sector leaders.

The influence of racialized ability grouping on school climate, academic self-concept and motivation

Year: 2015

description: Recent research highlights the academic gaps between Black students and White students.  Much of the current research focuses on the gap between poor urban schools and more affluent suburban schools.  The aim of the present research was to investigate the differential outcomes of Black and White students at a diverse middle class suburban high school.  This research sought to understand why students with access to the same resources have differential outcomes. More precisely, this research examined the relationships of school climate, academic self-concept, and motivation. Furthermore, this study investigated how the leveling practices were racialized and how this related to classroom climate, academic self-concept, and motivation.  To answer these questions ninth grade students were observed, surveyed and interviewed.   Results provided evidence that racialized ability grouping has negative effects on Black students’ academic self-concept and increases performance avoidance motivation.  Black students viewed the racial climate of their high school more negatively than white students.  However, there were no differences between Black and White students’ performance approach motivations.  However, there were differences for classroom climate. Many low level classrooms were poorly-managed and this resulted in a negative classroom climate and low student motivation. When a teacher managed the classroom well, there were no differences in student behavior or motivation regardless of level.  This case study found that Black students experienced differential treatment at school. This differential treatment resulted in a racial achievement gap.  The discrimination faced by Black students at PHS was systemic and institutional.  School policies such as leveling were racialized and Black students faced several barriers when trying to gain access to the upper level.  A major barrier was the negative perception of black students as academically and behaviorally inferior to White students. White students were overwhelmingly viewed as better students than Black students.  Although Black parents in the district were well educated and had high income levels the Black students, especially lower level students, were viewed as coming from low income or single parent households.   These finding add to the discourse on racial stereotypes of Black students and how these stereotypes perpetuate the racial achievement gap.
The impact of the United Nations on counter-terrorism

description: 9/11 has been a milestone to redefine terrorism and how to counter it. It has been revealed that a global anti-terrorism alliance is required to overcome such an enormous threat for all countries. Thus, the UN has taken initiatives very effectively just following 9/11 by urging the entire world what to do against terrorism which is a common threat for humanity. A counter terrorism regime has emerged, and adopted mandatory regulations for member countries including Russia and Turkey.   Having changed the perception and understanding of terrorism, the UN’s Counter Terrorism Committee (CTC) has been established as enforcement unit evaluating states’ stance towards terrorism, and recommending them how to fill the gaps in countering terrorism. Russia and Turkey have also submitted reports to the CTC, and made some counter terrorism regulation accordingly. Overall, the main assumption of this study, ‘the UN played a major role in counter-terrorism efforts following the events of 9/11’, has been examined through the related literature and interviews, and confirmed. Truly, the UN has become a global security actor, to some extent affecting counter terrorism policies implemented by Russia and Turkey

Small town Americas

description: Nationally themed miniature tourist attractions are popular destinations in many areas of the world, however there is currently no site in the U.S. exactly analogous to such locations as Madurodam, Mini Israel, or Italia in Miniatura. What the U.S. does have, however, is a history of numerous “American”-themed attractions employing scale models and miniature landscapes that similarly purport to represent an overview of the nation. Developments in travel infrastructure and communications technology, the decentralization of national tourism objectives and strategies, the evolution of tourism and tourist attractions in the nation and changing American cultural mores can all be seen in the miniature American landscapes investigated in this project.  Significantly, while research has been conducted on the Miniaturk and Taman Mini Java parks and the ways in which they are constructed by/construct a particular view of national identity in Turkey and Indonesia respectively, no such study has looked at the meaning(s) contained in and conveyed by their American counterparts. And, while much has been written on miniaturization, tourism, and the themed environment, rarely has the interplay between these forms and phenomena been examined, especially as they engage with national identity.  The intervention I make with this project is to discuss how the nationally themed miniature tourist attraction performs in an American context and what we can learn about American culture through “close readings” of six of these potent sites: Roadside America (Shartlesville, PA), America Wonderland (Denver, PA), LEGOLANDs California and Florida, America In Miniature (Las Vegas) and Wonders of America (Phoenix). These miniature tourist attractions display evolving expectations of what constitutes an American itinerary to the domestic middle-class tourist and, by extension, evolving notions of what constitutes American cultural citizenship in the post-War era and who are recognized as full participants.

Examining spatiotemporal patterns of disorder at bars in Newark, NJ
Creators: name: Bocker Parks, Rosalyn
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: Alcohol has long been considered a correlate of crime and disorder. Research into alcohol related crime and disorder has identified a number of risk factors and has recommended interventions aimed at reducing these problems. Research provides insight into how the police, community, and bar owners and managers can reduce crime and disorder at bar locations and where these actions should be undertaken. However, there is scarce research guiding when these interventions should take place.  While the interaction of time and place plays an important role in bar and disorder research, a systematic examination of these temporal and spatial patterns of disorder concentrations at bar locations has not been undertaken.    The goal of this research was to examine spatial and temporal concentrations of disorder at bars. Using two years of police data on disorder calls for service at bars, this research began with a J-curve analysis for each year of police data. The results were used to identify the bars with the most disorder calls for service in each year and allowed for comparisons between the two years. Next, the data was analyzed using a series of temporal factors such as time of day, day of the week, season of the year, and year-to-year comparisons to identify when the highest concentrations of bar disorder calls for service are most likely to occur. The identified temporal patterns of the concentration of disorder calls for service at bars were utilized to create statistically significant hotspots maps of spatial concentrations.    Hotspots of disorder were most frequently located in the popular nightlife areas of the Ironbound and South Ironbound during the weekend, and in the Central Business District and Ironbound during the week. Bar disorder concentrated during the 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. time period (approximately 48 percent of all bar disorder) and hotspots of disorder were located within the Ironbound and South Ironbound neighborhoods -- popular nightlife areas in Newark. The J-curve distribution analysis also identified the same bars as having disproportionate levels of disorder over the study period. Seven of the top ten most disorderly bars identified by the J-curve analysis in 2010 were also among the top ten most disorderly establishments in 2011, indicating a degree of continuity when examining bars with disproportionately high levels of disorder.    The results of this inquiry can be used to guide not only where but when targeted interventions should be implemented in order to generate the greatest crime control and prevention benefits. The products of this research expand the existing body of academic literature and provide valuable information to police officers, community leaders and those who live near, work in and patronize drinking establishments in Newark, NJ.

title: Parallel Tempering for DSGE Estimation

Year: 2024

description: In this paper, I develop a population-based Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm known as parallel tempering to estimate dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models. Parallel tempering approximates the posterior distribution of interest using a family of Markov chains with tempered posteriors. At each iteration, two randomly selected chains in the ensemble are proposed to swap parameter vectors, after which each chain mutates via Metropolis-Hastings. The algorithm results in a fast-mixing MCMC, particularly well suited for problems with irregular posterior distributions. Also, due to its global nature, the algorithm can be initialized directly from the prior distributions. I provide two empirical examples with complex posteriors: a New Keynesian model with equilibrium indeterminacy and the Smets-Wouters model with more diffuse prior distributions. In both examples, parallel tempering overcomes the inherent estimation challenge, providing extremely consistent estimates across different runs of the algorithm with large effective sample sizes. I provide code compatible with Dynare mod files, making this routine straightforward for DSGE practitioners to implement.
description: Dans cette étude, j’élabore un algorithme de Monte-Carlo par chaînes de Markov (MCMC) fondé sur une population, soit une atténuation parallèle, pour estimer des modèles d’équilibre général dynamique et stochastique (EGDS). L’atténuation parallèle fait une approximation de la distribution d’intérêt a posteriori à l’aide d’une famille de chaînes de Markov à distributions a posteriori tempérées. À chacune des itérations, deux chaînes sélectionnées de façon aléatoire dans l’ensemble sont proposées pour échanger les vecteurs des paramètres, après quoi chaque chaîne subit une mutation par le biais de l’algorithme de Metropolis-Hastings. L’algorithme crée une méthode MCMC à mixage rapide, qui convient particulièrement bien aux problèmes avec des distributions a posteriori irrégulières. De plus, à cause de sa nature globale, l’algorithme peut être initialisé directement à partir des distributions a priori. Je fournis deux exemples empiriques contenant des distributions a posteriori complexes : un modèle de type nouveau keynésien se caractérisant par des équilibres indéterminés et un modèle de SmetsWouters où les distributions a priori sont plus diffuses. Dans les deux exemples, l’atténuation parallèle surpasse le défi inhérent à l’estimation, fournissant des estimations extrêmement cohérentes lors de différentes exécutions de l’algorithme où la taille effective de l’échantillon est de grande taille. Je fournis un code compatible avec des fichiers de modélisation Dynare, ce qui facilite l’implantation de cette routine pour les utilisateurs de modèles EGDS.
Nation-building and democracy promotion in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Creators: name: Buljubasic, Meho
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: Observations of recent developments in a globalizing world emphasize the importance of nation building as both a policy and a topic of academic discussion. Most recent nation-building projects are the effort of developed democracies to promote democracy and democratic values around the globe. One prerequisite for the consolidation of democracy is the strong civil society. The core of civil societies is the NGO sector. Therefore, the role of NGOs promoting democracy and democratic values is of paramount importance. Nevertheless, the role of NGOs in several nation-building projects is understudied, and demands substantial academic scrutiny. Examples of nation building in transitional and post conflict societies such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia and elsewhere show little success. Literature suggests several reasons for the lack of NGOs’ success.  This study focuses on the role of NGOs that promote democratic values as part of a strategy used to break the ethno-national political gridlock that cripples democratic changes in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Further, this study aims to incorporate globalization as a new dynamic in nation-building studies. Since Bosnia-Herzegovina is a post-conflict, post-communist, and transitional society, it make an excellent case study that can be applied to different geopolitical and socio-cultural contexts of nation-building. These findings, applied, could make nation-building more functional and less costly.

Following the cyberspace "breadcrumbs"

description: Sponsored search-engine advertising, as one of the dominant online marketing paradigms, has been widely adopted by many advertisers in the contemporary marketplace.  Its success can be largely attributed to search engine providers’ ability to facilitate a connection between an individual consumer and firms advertising their products and services.  In this dissertation, we develop two essays to examine two major aspects of the interactions between consumers and advertisers, as facilitated by a leading China’s search engine company.  In the first essay, we focus on examinations of the impact of various types of branded keywords on consumer click-through rates.  Using a two-stage joint probability model, we find that various types of advertisers experience significantly different performance in the field of sponsored search advertising.  The difference is not merely drawn from the search engine’s various ranking decisions, but also by consumers who differentiate from one kind to another.  On the basis of these observations, we further drill into the explorations of branded keywords strategies applied to each type of advertisers.  The empirical insights generated under this theme could shed lights on advertisers with respect to branded keyword selections.    In the second essay, we study the impact of displayed paid ads assortment size and composition on consumer click-through behavior in sponsored search advertising.  We apply a three-stage joint probability modeling approach to examine these relationships.  Our empirical findings show that when the number of displayed ads increases, consumer’s average click-through rate on individual paid ads decreases.  Interestingly however, as the displayed ads list grows longer, consumer’s click-through rate on “well-known” brands will significantly increases.  With regard to the ads composition appeared in the search results, we find that the more perceivably attractive paid ads displayed at prominent ranks, the less likely that consumer will click on paid ads that shown below them.  Our empirical results suggest that, in addition to their popularity with consumers, advertisers need to understand the effect of keywords on assortment size and click-through rate.
Intersections of race and gender on prison punishment and adjustment
Creators: name: Chowdhury, Liza
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: Mass incarceration has had several negative outcomes for poor communities of color.  The past thirty years have resulted in disproportionate rates of African Americans being under correctional supervision.  Feminist criminologists have discussed the negative impacts mass incarceration has had on women and have been advocating for research that examines the gender-specific dimensions of female incarceration.  Intersectionality Theory (Crenshaw, 1989) was first introduced in legal studies to understand the double biases that women of color face by the justice system due to the simultaneous interaction effect of race and gender.  Recent studies in feminist criminology also advocate for the focus of gender and its interaction with race in order to examine if women of color are punished more severely due to race and gender bias.  The purpose of this study is to examine if categories of intersections based on race and gender result in disparate punishment outcomes in regards to official reactions to prison infractions.  It is hypothesized that Black inmates are punished more severely for prison infractions than all other incarcerated groups.  Data for this   study come from the 2004 Survey of Inmates in State and Federal Correctional Facilities (SISFCF).  Results show Black female and Black male inmates are more likely to be administered the punishment of solitary confinement than all other groups.  The findings of this study support the arguments made by intersectionality theory, and emphasize the importance of addressing the educational need of correctional officials, and their system of sanctioning prison infractions.

I assert that as smallpox became epidemic, a climate of fear consumed Boston, and that these fears were a significant factor causing a debate to form over the new procedure of inoculation. Further, as smallpox impressed fears through circulation, these fears were predicated on individual histories, knowledge, and accepted truths. Decisions regarding whether or not to inoculate were dependent on these factors, on how smallpox impressed fear individually. Inoculators, those who would choose to inoculate themselves and their loved ones during the 1721-22 epidemic, did so for fear of smallpox’s deadliness and to avoid its ravages. However, since inoculation transmitted smallpox and was yet unproven infallible, anti-inoculators feared inoculation because smallpox’s affective economy easily slid onto inoculation. Inoculation, therefore, could not be fully accepted until it impressed widespread confidence instead of fear.

description: This study is a close reading of the influential Swing to Bop: An Oral History of the Transition of Jazz in the 1940s by Ira Gitler.     The first section addresses the large role oral history plays in the dominant bebop narrative, the reasons the history of bebop has been constructed this way, and the issues that arise from allowing oral history to play such a large role in writing bebop’s history.    The following chapters address specific instances from Gitler’s oral history and from the relevant recordings from this transitionary period of jazz, with musical transcription and analysis that elucidate the ofen vague words of the significant musicians.     The aim of this study is to illustrate the smoothness of the transition from swing to bebop and to encourage a sense of skepticism in jazz historians’ consumption of oral history.

Pair bonding

description: Pair bonding is an exclusive mating relationship associating the memory of a mate with the potential successful completion of a breeding cycle. In evolutionary biology, pair bonding has been studied as a mating strategy and this biological phenomenon has been associated with survival related reproductive behaviors, however, behaviors that function in the formation of bonding and those that are established as a result of bonding are seldom distinguished, making it difficult to assess how pair bonding is represented in the brain. This thesis assesses pair bonding in ring doves, an animal that has a predictable sequence leading to a successful breeding cycle.  Through a series of lesion, immunohistochemistry, and behavior studies we sought to understand the processing and execution of this fitness-critical complex behavior, by assessing the neural basis of pair bonding, understanding which behavioral events initiate the formation of the bond and how bonding affects an animal's decisions involving a mate. We found a neuro-marker for pair bonding that is more accurate than current methods of measuring bonding and that lesions to this region, the nucleus taeniae, disrupted pair bonding in doves.  We showed that pair bonding moderates breeding behaviors, specifically courtship (nest coo) behavior, allowing for changes in these behaviors that can effect neurogenesis and recovery of behavior (nest coo) following lesions to regions associated with regulation of reproductive-endocrine function. We determined that a pair bond in ring doves is formed following the performance of courtship (nest coo) behavior, rather than the completion of the entire breeding cycle, suggesting that doves are using this stage to predict the successful completion of the breeding cycle with their mate, a concept consistent with pair bonding’s role in survival behavior.

The age of sail in the Age of Aquarius

description: While historic preservation in the postwar era has been conventionally explored as a response to urbanism and urban development, this dissertation examines the preservation impulse of the 1960s as a sign of the cultural crisis of that decade.  The postwar urban crisis - culminating in summer riots in 1967 and ’68, student takeovers, draft card burnings, and proliferating protests against the nation’s racial, financial and political hierarchies across the country- indicate the crisis of the 1960s was much broader than simply one of urban crime rates and deindustrialization. This larger cultural landscape of the ‘60s, its ubiquitous challenges to the political, financial, racial, and moral foundations of the country, gave birth to an “anguished scrutiny” surrounding the meaning of the most fundamental tenets of American society. For many, the answer to the question of the urban crisis was found in the preservation and commemoration of American origin stories, of maritime-inspired myths, of a time when we were good. The crisis of the 1960s is the critical landscape from which historic preservation and commemoration emerged at the South Street Seaport Museum in lower Manhattan, a commemorative landscape reimagined to recall traditional American hero myths and a “different breed of men” which seeded the city’s early prosperity during the golden Age of Sail.
The Massachusetts Quinn Bill

description: This dissertation employs a case study methodology to examine the Massachusetts Police Pay Incentive Program (Quinn Bill) and the effect recent commitments under the Quinn Bill to improve criminal justice education have had on that education. Focusing on how policy is developed, Barbara Ann Stolz’s study (2002) on federal roles and processes in the making of criminal justice policy were applied to criminal justice educational policy at the state level. More specifically, to tell the Massachusetts story, four policy analysis perspectives—symbolic politics, interest groups, political culture, and implementation—were applied to four somewhat distinct stages of the policy development process that eventually produced the Massachusetts Quinn Bill in its current form: the passage of the Quinn Bill and its early implementation, the conflicts and concerns that arose after implementation of the program, the intensification of the conflict that ultimately produced an amendment to the policy, and the current picture. According to the Massachusetts Office of Student Financial Assistance (n.d.), the Quinn Bill contains two stated objectives: to encourage police officers in participating municipalities to earn degrees in law enforcement and criminal justice and to provide educational incentives through salary increases. Assuming these goals were accomplished, the following questions are addressed by this study: What was the effect of the Quinn Bill on criminal justice higher education policy in Massachusetts? What happened and why? Did criminal justice programs in the state of Massachusetts change under the Quinn Bill? If so, how and why? Secondary data analysis and semi-structured personal interviews were used to explore these questions. Interview participants were identified using purposive sampling and responses were organized into topics, themes, and issues, with data analyzed relative to the research questions. Criminal justice education programs were found to have eventually changed under the Quinn Bill. The story surrounding that change in light of the assumptions of the benefits of an educated police officer is discussed. The case study concludes with an examination of the Quinn Bill’s relevance to the national scene on quality in criminal justice education.
