Children's Perception

description: This paper investigates children’s perception of digital media with a particular focus on their interpretation of the delineation between living and non-living entities. Children are increasingly using digital devices in their daily lives, yet very little is known about how they perceive this aspect of their regular environment. This study is situated within the context of child development, new media studies, and Canadian Education History, and uses Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as the core of its conceptual framework. The methodology of this study involves triangulating ten semi-structured interviews with children between the ages of 7-9 (n=10), surveys given to their parents, and a document analysis of the Ontario science and technology curriculum. The key findings of this study are that children do not delineate between living and non-living entitles in the same way as adults, and the Ontario curriculum does not sufficiently address digital media in elementary school children’s education.
Human gonadotropin-releasing hormone-II regulation in ovarian cancer : mechanisms and potential functional role
Creators: name: Poon, Song Ling
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: It is increasingly apparent that GnRH-II acts as an autocrine/paracrine regulator in non-pituitary tissues, in addition to its role in the regulation of gonadotropin synthesis, and is an important player in cancer cell biology. High levels of GnRH-II and GnRHR in malignant ovarian tumors as compared with benign ovarian tissues underlies the importance of understanding GnRH-II function in ovarian cancer. In an attempt to define the regulation of GnRH-II in these tissues, we found that a cyclic-AMP responsive element (CRE) is critical for GnRH-II promoter transcription. In this scenario, the transcription factors p-CREB, C/EBPβ and CBP are recruited to this region in a temporarily-defined manner in response to cAMP/PKA signaling, thereby enhancing GnRH-II transcription and increasing GnRH-II mRNA levels in cancer cells of reproductive tissues. We also verified that EGF/EGFR-activated p-CREB/C/EBPβ interactions target the CRE region within GnRH-II promoter to enhance GnRH-II production in ovarian cancer. Importantly, EGF-stimulated GnRH-II expression constitutes a specific autocrine loop that contributes to ovarian cancer motility. In an attempt to define the downstream mechanisms responsible for this autocrine action of GnRH-II, we identified that MMP-2 and MT1-MMP are critical mediators of GnRH-II-enhanced ovarian cancer cell invasion. Specifically, GnRH-II acts via GnRHR to up-regulate 37kDa laminin receptor precusor expression which dimerizes to yield the non-integrin 67kDa laminin receptor (67LR). This leads to an increase interaction between 67LR and laminin in the extracellular matrix, and increases MMP-2 production in ovarian cancer cells. In parellel, GnRH-II/GnRHR-activated PI3K/Akt/β-catenin signaling to up-regulate MT1-MMP production which is known to be an activator for MMP-2 zymogen. Lastly, we attempted to define the implication of 67LR in high grade serous ovarian carcinoma due to its critical role in enhancing ovarian cancer progression in our in vitro model. However 67LR did not correlate with the overall survival of stage III & IV high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients. Overall, this study contributes to our understanding of the impact of GnRH-II/GnRHR in ovarian cancer invasive potential and provides insights into the progression of ovarian cancer and the development of new therapeutic strategies.

description: Oil sands reservoirs in Western Canada are among the largest petroleum accumulations in the world. Given the high viscosity of the oil, typically in the hundreds of thousands to millions of cP, these oils are recovered from the reservoir by using steam which heats the oil to between 180 and 250C which lowers its viscosity to less than 10 cP. The key issue faced by these recovery processes is their thermal efficiency and consequent greenhouse gas emissions and water use. The larger the amount of steam used, the greater the greenhouse gas emissions and water use and the lower the economic viability of the recovery process itself. Thus, the thermal efficiency of steam-based recovery processes is a critical measure of process viability. Ultimately, the thermal efficiency is controlled by the efficiency of the growth of the steam chamber in the reservoir. In other words, steam conformance in the reservoir is a critical control on the efficiency of the recovery process. The research documented in this thesis examines the stability of the steam-oil interfaces to further understand the dynamics of steam chambers in oil sands reservoirs. The key reason that we are interested in instability in SAGD is that it potentially plays an important role in the growth of the steam chamber with consequent changes of heat transfer and oil rate. The results show that even in a homogeneous reservoir, instabilities can yield non-ideal steam conformance within the reservoir. The instability takes place in the gas phase beyond the edge of the hot steam chamber in the gas zone that is created due to gas exsolution. The nonlinear instability that is exhibited by the fine grid reservoir simulation results can be triggered by the difference in either viscosity (Saffman-Taylor) or density (Rayleigh-Taylor). To observe fingering at the edges of depletion chambers in steam-based recovery processes, fine grid simulations are required. Given that the fingers are of order of 30 cm in width, this implies grid blocks of this or smaller orders of length scales are needed.

description: At the core of my article lies the tension between the EU's aims of market integration and the retention by national authorities of important powers in the carrying out of socio-economic activities. In this respect I have examined the concept of socio-economic protectionism under free movement rules in the context of the relationships between intra-EU golden shares, non-EU sovereign investments, SGEIs and strategic industries. To this end, I have argued that the multifaceted notion of solidarity, at national and EU levels, may serve for reaching a fair balance between the aims of economic/market regulation and those of social regulation.

description: The homogeneous Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell mixtures is considered to study the dynamics of tracer particles or impurities (solvent) immersed in a uniform granular gas (solute). The analysis is based on exact results derived for a granular binary mixture in the homogeneous cooling state (HCS) that apply for arbitrary values of the parameters of the mixture (particle masses $m_i$, mole fractions $c_i$, and coefficients of restitution $α_{ij}$). In the tracer limit ($c_1\to 0$), it is shown that the HCS supports two distinct phases that are evidenced by the corresponding value of $E_1/E$, the relative contribution of the tracer species to the total energy. Defining the mass ratio $μ= m_1/m_2$, there indeed exist two critical values $μ_\text{HCS}^{(-)}$ and $μ_\text{HCS}^{(+)}$ (which depend on the coefficients of restitution), such that $E_1/E=0$ for $μ_\text{HCS}^{(-)}μ_\text{HCS}^{(+)}$ (ordered phase).

description: Myopia is a refractive disorder characterized by the inability to see distant objects clearly. It is the most common childhood vision disorder, and the leading cause of adult visual impairment world-wide. Myopia prevalence is rising rapidly; it is estimated that 2.5 billion people will be affected by 2030, and any degree of myopia increases the risk of blindness-inducing comorbidities. There are no universally accepted pharmaceutical therapies to slow myopia progression, but some success has been found with the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) antagonist atropine. There remains a paucity of investigations into the ocular signalling cascades modulated by atropine-treatment. Research in this area has been based on the assumption that because atropine, and a few other mAChR antagonists, inhibit myopia at extremely high concentrations, mAChRs must regulate myopia progression. Regulation of eye growth by mAChRs has never been proven conclusively. Here, I report that myopia-inhibition by atropine is dependent on induction of nitric oxide (NO), and that exogenous NO is sufficient to inhibit experimentally-induced form-deprivation myopia (FDM) on its own. In addition, I provide evidence that disproves the assumption that mAChRs are responsible for atropine- and mamba toxin 3-mediated myopia-inhibition in the chick. First, I demonstrate that alpha2-adrenoceptor (ADRA2) agonists can dose-dependently inhibit FDM. Second, I show that myopia-inhibiting mAChR antagonists can bind to, and block signalling by, human alpha2A-adrenoceptors (ADRA2A). Furthermore, I show that the relative inhibitory potencies (pIC50’s) of myopia-inhibiting mAChR antagonists at ADRA2A correlate better with their reported abilities to inhibit FDM in the chick than their relative pIC50’s at human and chicken mAChR M4. My data further our understanding of how the eye may know how large to grow. They provide two novel alternative targets for anti-myopia therapies (NO & ADRA2s), both of which would eliminate the most significant side-effects of atropine-treatment. They provide a range in which mAChR antagonists should be expected to act in a “specific” manner at human and chicken mAChR M4, and reinforce the need for caution in attributing the effects of high concentration drug to a specific receptor target.

description: Family caregivers of individuals with schizophrenia are an asset in our society as they dedicate much of their lives to providing care. Previous research about these caregivers has often focused on caregiver burden. It was of interest to explore the self-care practices of these individuals to gain understanding into their lived experience. Through written personal reflection in nature this study asked seven family caregivers (four women, three men) to tell their story of self-care. Using narrative analysis several themes were discovered including self-care practices, barriers to self-care, influence of self-care, agency, well-being, and future. This study gave voice to one group of caregivers and their experiences with emotions, barriers, and practice of self-care. The implications of the study include additional information for both caregivers and community agencies about the importance of, and barriers to, self-care practices. It also may provide a foundation for further research in terms of self-care.

Surface mass balance

description: Abstract: Ice sheet mass balance results of the small imbalance between ice flow discharging in the ocean and net snow accumulation on the ice sheet surface, i.e. the surface mass balance (SMB). Past change in ice sheet mass can be assessed using satellite altimetry, gravimetry, or the input-output method, which all request SMB estimates.The input-output method, which consists in separately modeling ice dynamics and SMB, is also the only way to project future trends. Here we use the polar-oriented regional climate model MAR to estimate the Antarctic SMB for the period 1979-2018 using forcing from 7 reanalyses: ERA-5, ERA-Interim, JRA-55, MERRA2, NCEP1, NCEP2, and 20CRv2. We show that spatial patterns of SMB modeled by the reanalyses diverge significantly between each-other, whereas the spread is insignificant after downscaling with MAR. SMB modeled with MAR is markedly closer to observations than the original reanalyses outputs. Divergences in SMB between reanalyses and MAR are driven by divergences in snowfall amounts, which are explained by processes related to clouds and precipitation in the atmosphere (notably cloud-precipitation conversion, precipitation advection and precipitation sublimation) rather than by model resolution. The temporal variability of downscaled SMB is however strongly related to the forcing reanalysis variability. This study emphasis the importance of polar-specific processes and of their implementation in climate models, particularly in view of atmosphere-ice sheet coupling.

description: (abridged) Strongly star-forming galaxies of subsolar metallicities are typical of the high-redshift universe. Here we therefore provide accurate data for two low-z analogs, the well-known low-metallicity emission-line galaxies Haro 11 and ESO 338-IG 004. On the basis of Very Large Telescope/X-shooter spectroscopic observations in the wavelength range 3000-24000Å, we use standard direct methods to derive physical conditions and element abundances. Furthermore, we use X-shooter data together with Spitzer observations in the mid-infrared range to attempt to find hidden star formation. We derive interstellar oxygen abundances of 12 + log O/H = 8.33+/-0.01, 8.10+/-0.04, and 7.89+/-0.01 in the two HII regions B and C of Haro 11 and in ESO 338-IG 004, respectively. The observed fluxes of the hydrogen lines correspond to the theoretical recombination values after correction for extinction with a single value of the extinction coefficient C(Hbeta) across the entire wavelength range from the near-ultraviolet to the NIR and mid-infrared for each of the studied HII regions. Therefore there are no emission-line regions contributing to the line emission in the NIR range, which are hidden in the optical range. The agreement between the extinction-corrected and CLOUDY-predicted fluxes implies that a HII region model including only stellar photoionisation is able to account for the observed fluxes, in both the optical and NIR ranges. All observed spectral energy distributions (SEDs) can be reproduced quite well across the whole wavelength range by model SEDs except for Haro 11B, where there is a continuum flux excess at wavelengths >1.6mum. It is possible that one or more red supergiant stars are responsible for the NIR flux excess in Haro 11B. We find evidence of a luminous blue variable (LBV) star in Haro 11C.

description: Accurate relative spectrophotometry is critical for many science applications. Small wavelength scale residuals in the flux calibration can significantly impact the measurements of weak emission and absorption features in the spectra. Using Sloan Digital Sky Survey data, we demonstrate that the average spectra of carefully selected red-sequence galaxies can be used as a spectroscopic standard to improve the relative spectrophotometry precision to 0.1% on small wavelength scales (from a few to hundreds of Angstroms). We achieve this precision by comparing stacked spectra across tiny redshift intervals. The redshift intervals must be small enough that any systematic stellar population evolution is minimized and less than the spectrophotometric uncertainty. This purely empirical technique does not require any theoretical knowledge of true galaxy spectra. It can be applied to all large spectroscopic galaxy redshift surveys that sample a large number of galaxies in a uniform population.

description: The inherent simplicity of human locomotion is deceiving in nature and its complexity becomes apparent when we observe children as they learn to walk or patients suffering from neuromuscular disorders. Human movement requires inputs from supraspinal and spinal centers as well as sensory afferent feedback. However, little is known about the interaction between cortical and muscular activity during whole body movement. This thesis aimed to investigate neuromuscular control at the muscular level, the cortical level and ultimately to link recordings from muscles and the cerebral cortex. Experiments were conducted on a cycling ergometer to mimic the rhythmic movement of limbs that is common to various forms of human locomotion such as walking, running, and cycling. Recordings of muscular activity showed that the coordinated activation of muscles reduces to a few number of critical components when the pedaling load increases. This reduction in the solution space of the task was accompanied by a more precise execution (i.e. less variability) of the chosen solutions. Recordings of electrical activity of the cerebral cortex during the pedaling movement showed that activity was located in the frontal, parietal and motor areas. The time-dependent activity in the motor areas of the cortex were linked to specific phases in the pedaling cycle. Lastly, simultaneous recordings of muscular and cortical activity showed a significant coherence between EEG signals and EMG signals. This corticospinal coupling was weakened as fatigue developed throughout the pedaling exercise. On the contrary, the information flow from the muscles to the cortex was enhanced with the development of fatigue. In summary, our results show that muscular activation patterns can be used to make inferences about neuromuscular control strategies. Further, activity in the cerebral cortex plays a role for rhythmic movement in humans and is linked to muscle activation patterns of the lower limbs.

description: The purpose of this thesis was to identify some of the more salient factors that contribute to university student success and to construct the Measure of Student Success (MOSS) as an alternative option to the instruments that are currently available to measure student success. Two manuscripts are presented. In the first, undergraduate participants at a Canadian university were recruited and asked to identify factors they believe contribute to their success while enrolled in an undergraduate program. The second manuscript uses the results from the first and a review of the literature to create and pilot test a new scale to measure university student success based on GPA. An exploratory factor analysis identified three primary factors (Future Perspectives, Student Well-Being, and Competency), with a number of subcomponents for each factor. Overall, the preliminary results evaluating the MOSS are encouraging. Finally, a model of university success is presented to assist in the conceptualization of the complex construct of student success.

description: We have succeeded in developing hydrophobic silica aerogels over a wide range of densities (i.e. refractive indices). A pinhole drying method was invented to make possible producing highly transparent aerogels with entirely new region of refractive indices of 1.06-1.26. Obtained aerogels are more transparent than conventional ones, and the refractive index is well controlled in the pinhole drying process. A test beam experiment was carried out in order to evaluate the performance of the pinhole-dried aerogels as a Cherenkov radiator. A clear Cherenkov ring was successfully observed by a ring imaging Cherenkov counter. We also developed monolithic and hydrophobic aerogels with a density of 0.01 g/cm^3 (a low refractive index of 1.0026) as a cosmic dust capturer for the first time. Consequently, aerogels with any refractive indices between 1.0026 and 1.26 can be produced freely.

description: This study explores female university students’ beliefs and attitudes about sexuality. A feminist ethnography was utilized in this study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 female university students between the ages of 18-28 at the University of Calgary. Themes were compared across interviews and common themes and sub-themes were identified. The major themes that arose from participant interviews were as follows: defining features of university culture, defining sexuality, gender roles and sexual relationships, consent, and rape myths. Within the literature, themes regarding gender roles, consent, and rape myths are beliefs that can influence sexual assault labelling and reporting behaviours. Primary findings indicated that more research is needed to understand these beliefs and attitudes and how they influence both sexuality and sexual assault reporting behaviours in a university context. Lastly, direct participant recommendations are provided which discuss areas of change regarding sexual violence prevention and consent education.

Formation of SiC Grains in Pulsation-Enhanced Dust-Driven Wind Around Carbon Rich Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

description: We investigate the formation of silicon carbide (SiC) grains in the framework of dust-driven wind around pulsating carbon-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch (C-rich AGB) stars in order to reveal not only the amount but also the size distribution. Two cases are considered for the nucleation process; one is the LTE case where the vibration temperature of SiC clusters $T_{\rm v}$ is equal to the gas temperature as usual, and another is the non-LTE case in which $T_{\rm v}$ is assumed to be the same as the temperature of small SiC grains. The results of hydrodynamical calculations for a model with stellar parameters of mass $M_{\ast}$=1.0 $M_{\odot}$, luminosity $L_{\ast}$=10$^{4}$ $L_{\odot}$, effective temperature $T_{\rm eff}$=2600 K, C/O ratio=1.4, and pulsation period $P$=650 days show the followings: In the LTE case, SiC grains condense in accelerated outflowing gas after the formation of carbon grains and the resulting averaged mass ratio of SiC to carbon grains of $\sim$ 10$^{-8}$ is too small to reproduce the value of 0.01-0.3 inferred from the radiative transfer models. On the other hand, in the non-LTE case, the formation region of SiC grains is inner than and/or almost identical to that of carbon grains due to the so-called inverse greenhouse effect. The mass ratio of SiC to carbon grains averaged at the outer boundary ranges from 0.098 to 0.23 for the sticking probability $α_{\rm s}$=0.1-1.0. The size distributions with the peak at $\sim$ 0.2-0.3 $\rmμ$m in radius cover the range of size derived from the analysis of presolar SiC grains. Thus the difference between temperatures of small cluster and gas plays a crucial role in the formation process of SiC grains around C-rich AGB stars, and this aspect should be explored for the formation process of dust grains in astrophysical environments.

description: The generation of strongly squeezed vacuum states of light is a key technology for future ground-based gravitational wave detectors (GWDs) to reach sensitivities beyond their quantum noise limit. For some proposed observatory designs, an operating laser wavelength of 1550 nm or around 2 μm is required to enable the use of cryogenically cooled silicon test masses for thermal noise reduction. Here, we present for the first time the direct measurement of up to 11.5 dB squeezing at 1550 nm over the complete detection bandwidth of future ground-based GWDs ranging from 10 kHz down to below 1 Hz. Furthermore, we directly observe a quantum shot-noise reduction of up to (13.5±0.1) dB at megahertz frequencies. This allows us to derive a precise constraint on the absolute quantum efficiency of the photodiode used for balanced homodyne detection. These results hold important insight regarding the quantum noise reduction efficiency in future GWDs, as well as for quantum information and cryptography, where low decoherence of nonclassical states of light is also of high relevance.

description: The majority of research regarding astrocyte calcium responses has focused on large transients produced in response to stimulation, while little is known about the regulation and role of resting calcium levels. Recent findings suggest that resting astrocyte calcium provides tonic regulation of nearby arterioles, emphasizing the importance of investigating this factor. Here we examine the effects of specific patterns of synaptic activity, specifically theta burst stimulation, on resting astrocyte calcium levels. We observed a significant, long-lasting decrease in resting calcium concentrations in these cells following stimulation, an effect that was inhibited by ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonists. This decrease in resting calcium levels was not observed in neurons, and may be involved in eliciting the vasoconstriction of nearby vessels observed following stimulation. These results demonstrate a novel calcium response in astrocytes that may be relevant to the physiological roles of these glial cells in the neurovascular unit.

The misrule of Gaza : Israeli assaults in a land under siege
Creators: name: Jones, Craig A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis explores the relationship between war, law and visuality. It focuses on Israel's 23-day assault on Gaza that began in December 2008. The thesis has three main aims. First, to historicize the assault, and put forward the idea that Israel's resort to violence takes not only militaristic but crucially also legalistic forms (chapter 2). Second, to problematize the relationship between war and law through a discussion of the post-assault discourses on the indeterminate legality of the war (chapters 3&5). I suggest that in the age of what commentators are calling lawfare, law has reached its maximal instrumentalization and has become a military tactic. Third, to interrogate the visual archives of the assault in order to explore the ways in which war is being fought through visual fields and visual tactics which I call imagefare (chapter 4). The turn toward the legal and the visual in Israeli military strategy presents political, ethical and pragmatic problems for resisting and opposing war and so in relation to the current situation in Gaza and the ambivalent status of international law I conclude by posing the question: ‘what now?’ (chapter 5).

description: This paper present a survey and discussion of the Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP) viewpoints; oriented approaches to requirements engineering viewpoint and a presentation of new work in the application wireless mobile phone, this area which has been designed with practical application using the Unified Modelling Language (UML)/VHDL_AMS (VHSIC Hardware Description Language Analog and Mixed-Signal). We mainly focus on rising and fulling time, action, uplink behaviour constraints (sequentiality, non determinism and concurrency constraints).We discuss the practical problems of introducing viewpoint; oriented requirements engineering into industrial software engineering practice and why these have prevented the widespread use of existing approaches. The goal of this article is to check the uplink path using the MIC (Microphone amplifier) with all analog inputs, and check the amplifier gain. This paper provides an example of using the Uplink Framework to build a comprehensive, good solution for Application Wireless Mobile Phone. Finally, we discuss how well this approach addresses some outstanding problems in requirements engineering (RE) and the practical industrial problems of introducing new requirements engineering methods.

description: This article examines the development of the electorate of Alliance90/The Greens since the party’s founding. The data basis was formed by the cumulative German General Social Survey (ALLBUS) surveys from 1980 to 2018. Over the period under investigation, an increasing trend in support for Alliance90/The Greens emerged for western Germany. Using a hierarchical age–period–cohort analysis with fixed cohort effects, it is shown that support for Alliance90/The Greens increased with the succession of generations. Life cycle effects, on the other hand, are not observed. Furthermore, a positive effect of belonging to the social and cultural service class and voting for the Green Party can be demonstrated. In a weakened form, these findings are also evident in eastern Germany.
description: Der Beitrag untersucht die Entwicklung der Wählerschaft von Bündnis90/Die Grünen seit der Gründung der Partei. Die Datengrundlage bilden die kumulierten ALLBUS-Erhebungen der Jahre 1980–2018. Über den Untersuchungszeitraum hinweg zeigt sich für Westdeutschland ein steigender Trend in der Unterstützung von Bündnis90/Die Grünen. Mittels einer hierarchischen Alter-Perioden-Kohorten-Analyse mit fixen Kohorteneffekten (HAPK-FC) wird gezeigt, dass die Unterstützung für Bündnis90/Die Grünen in der Generationenfolge zunimmt. Lebenszykluseffekte existieren hingegen nicht. Darüber hinaus lässt sich ein positiver Effekt der Zugehörigkeit zur sozialen und kulturellen Dienstklasse auf die Wahl der Grünen nachweisen. In abgeschwächter Form zeigen sich diese Befunde auch in Ostdeutschland.
