title: Chemical Bonding in Novel 0-, 1-, 2-, and 3-Dimensional Chemical Species
Creators: name: Popov, Ivan A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: While the trial and error approach is still being a dominant pathway for synthesis of various compounds in chemistry, computation-driven approaches have recently been shown to be a very efficient way towards the rational design of new materials with tailored properties. In principle, theoretical design of materials may not only significantly reduce the costs associated with the experiment, but may also result in the prediction of novel compounds possessing completely unexpected geometries. These compounds can serve as long-lived catalysts, powerful batteries, efficient solar cells, or reliable energy storage materials. Since geometric structure of any system is related to its electronic structure, it is very important to understand how atoms are bonded together since the chemical properties of materials depend upon the chemical bonds that make it up. Armed with this knowledge, researchers are able to develop theoretical models and design principles, which can be used to describe the geometry of the given system as well as rationally design novel species possessing desired structures and properties. The common thread of this dissertation was the development of the chemical bonding models for a vast range of chemical systems, including gas-phase clusters observed in a molecular beam or isolated in a condensed phase, various hypervalent iodine molecules, experimentally made two-dimensional materials of carbon and boron, as well as theoretically predicted molecular chains and atom-thin sheets awaiting their experimental confirmation.

Lorazepam-induced amnesia : examination of delayed free recall and priming effects
Creators: name: Stanton, Mark
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Benzodiazepines are a class of drugs that produce a number of side effects including temporary memory impairments which appear to parallel organic amnesia. This raises the possibility that benzodiazepines can be utilised as another method of exploring amnesia and consequently normal memory functioning. This review outlines the current models of memory and amnesia, including the temporary benzodiazepine-induced amnesia. Priming is one memory function that has been shown clearly to be preserved in organic amnesia but not so clearly in benzodiazepine-induced amnesia. This review outlines this research and suggests the need for further research to clarify the exact status of priming in benzodiazepine-induced amnesia.

title: (Uranium-Thorium)/Helium Thermochronologic Constraints on Secondary Iron-Oxide Mineralization in Southwestern New Mexico
Creators: name: Channer, Michael
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: Southwestern New Mexico experienced protracted volcanism from ~60 Ma to 500 ka and associated epithermal mineralization. We apply hematite (U-Th)/He (hematite He) thermochronology to fracture-hosted hematite in the Lordsburg Mining District to resolve the timing of mineralization related to hydrothermal fluid circulation. We interpret hematite He dates with integrated field and structural observations, scanning electron microscopy to characterize hematite texture and grain size distribution, and zircon U-Pb and zircon (U-Th)/He (zircon He) chronology to constrain the timing of host rock formation and the ambient low-temperature thermal history, respectively. Undeformed hematite fills fractures cut a brecciated rhyolite and preserve open voids. Scanning electron microscopy reveals botryoidal hematite comprises stacked sublayers of ultra-fine grained crystals, corresponding to low He retentivity hematite. Forty-nine hematite aliquots from 12 samples, across seven fracture coatings yield reproducible mean hematite He dates from 3.4 to 0.8 Ma. U-Pb zircon geochronology dates range from ~90 to ~54 Ma, excluding ~1.3–1.0 Ga zircon components. These data overlap previously published dates (~56–52 Ma) from the host rhyolite overlap with new zircon He dates of ~51 Ma from two rhyolite host rock samples. The mean of the youngest U-Pb zircon dates is 54 ± 1.3 Ma and is inferred to represent the rhyolite eruption age. We suggest the rhyolite has remained in the near surface since emplacement and that hematite He dates record ~3.5–1 Ma epithermal mineralization. Younger dates likely reflect partial diffusive He loss from the fine-grained and thus low He retentivity hematite. Our data suggests the hematite fracture-fills are unaffiliated with Paleocene-Eocene economic mineralization.

description: A concise, somewhat personal, review of the problem of superfluidity and quantum criticality in regular and disordered interacting Bose systems is given, concentrating on general features and important symmetries that are exhibited in different parts of the phase diagram, and that govern the different possible types of critical behavior. A number of exact results for various insulating phase boundaries, which may be used to constrain the results of numerical simulations, can be derived using large rare region type arguments. The nature of the insulator-superfluid transition is explored through general scaling arguments, exact model calculations in one dimension, numerical results in two dimensions, and approximate renormalization group results in higher dimensions. Experiments on He-4 adsorbed in porous Vycor glass, on thin film superconductors, and magnetically trapped atomic vapors in a periodic optical potential, are used to illustrate many of the concepts.

title: Expert Consensus On Barriers to College and University Online Education for Students with Blindness and Low Vision
Creators: name: Pavithran, Sachin D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: The availability of online college and university courses have continued to grow, offering opportunities for education to students that may find attending in a regular classroom difficult, if not impossible. The number of students with disabilities enrolling in online courses is also growing. However, because of the mode of delivery (via computer/internet), blind and low vision college and university students can find it difficult to participate fully in an online course if it is not designed with accessibility in mind. Education is directly related to blind and low vision individuals becoming fully employed and independent. Blind and low vision college and university students who have previously taken an online course and used assistive technology devices to access the computer are aware of the issues of accessibility to online courses. The current study began by asking a group of blind and low-vision students to answer seven open-ended questions regarding their experiences accessing online courses at their college or university. The group responses generated 25 survey items and participants were asked to rate each item. Survey items were evaluated and participants were given the opportunity to re-rate their answers based on the group’s responses. The final results were evaluated and ranked in importance according to participant responses. Results were discussed along with the implications, limitations, and recommendations for future research.

description: Reperfusion therapy after acute myocardial infarction can induce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Novel evidence has illustrated that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification modulates the myocardial IRI progression. Here, our study focuses on the role of m6A methyltransferase fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) in myocardial ischemia/reoxygenation injury and explores potential regulatory mechanisms. Results discovered that FTO down-expressed in myocardial IRI mice and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced cardiomyocytes. Functionally, FTO overexpression attenuated the H/R-induced apoptosis and inflammation of cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, methylated RNA immunoprecipitation quantitative polymerase chain reaction (MeRIP-qPCR) assay and RIP assay revealed that Yap1 mRNA acted as the target of FTO in cardiomyocytes. Moreover, FTO uninstalled the methylation of Yap1 mRNA, and enforced the stability of Yap1 mRNA. Taken together, our study reveals the role of FTO in H/R-induced myocardial cell injury via m6A-dependent manner, which may provide a new approach to improve myocardial IRI.

title: Effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Moral Injury
Creators: name: Bluett, Ellen J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2017

description: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common condition among military personal and veterans. Despite strong empirical support for first line treatments for PTSD, many veterans do not complete or respond to treatment. Research suggests that experiential avoidance is a contributing factor to both treatment dropout and minimal treatment gains. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is an empirically supported cognitive behavioral intervention that aims to decrease experiential avoidance while increasing psychological flexibility. Research has shown ACT to be a promising intervention for the treatment of PTSD; however, its effectiveness in veterans with PTSD is limited.
In conjunction with Utah State University (USU) and the Salt Lake City Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Ellen Bluett, a USU doctoral psychology student and staff psychologist at the VA conducted a study to examine a next-step treatment for veterans with PTSD. The main purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of an 8- week closed group design ACT intervention for veterans with PTSD and subclinical PTSD who had previously completed a first line intervention for PTSD. Thirty-three veterans enrolled in the intervention, which focused on vitality (e.g., increasing valued living and decreasing experiential avoidance) rather than symptom reduction. Symptom and process of change measures including PTSD symptoms, valued living, and quality of life were measured at pretreatment, posttreatment, and again at 1-month follow-up.
Findings from this study showed that 64.7% of veterans showed a favorable response to treatment as measured by a 5-point change in PTSD symptoms. Additionally, outcomes of interest including PTSD symptoms, valued living, depression, wellbeing, and moral injury by transgressions improved from pretreatment to posttreatment. Of note, a majority of treatment gains were not maintained at follow-up. Overall, results provide preliminary support for ACT as a second-line intervention for veteran PTSD.

description: Pain experience in sport had been the subject of increasing research in recent years. While sports professionals have generally been found to have higher pain thresholds than control subjects the reasons for this are not entirely clear. The present study seeks to investigate one possible explanatory factor, the importance of the popular image of the physical activity and of the self-image of its participants, by examining pain experience in professional ballet dancers. Like sports professionals, dancers were found to have higher pain and pain tolerance thresholds than age matched controls in the Cold Pressor Test. However, they also reported a more acute experience of the sensory aspects of the pain. Explanations of this apparent paradox are discussed both in terms of the neuroticism scores of the two groups and in terms of the dancers' greater experience of pain and its relationship with physical activity. The results illustrated the importance of using multidimensional measures of pain in this type of investigation.
Ergodic Considerations in the Gravitational Potential of the Milky Way

description: A method is proposed for constraining the Galactic gravitational potential from high precision observations of the phase space coordinates of a system of relaxed tracers. The method relies on an "ergodic" assumption that the observations are representative of the state of the system at any other time. The observed coordinates serve as initial conditions for moving the tracers forward in time in an assumed model for the gravitational field. The validity of the model is assessed by the statistical equivalence between the observations and the distribution of tracers at randomly selected times. The applicability of this ergodic method is not restricted by any assumption on the form or symmetry of the potential. However, it requires high recision observations as those that will be obtained from missions like SIM and GAIA.

title: Effects of Reinforcement on the IQ Scores of Preschool Children as a Function of Initial IQ
Creators: name: Weiss, Richard H.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1980

description: The effects of tokens as reinforcers on IQ test performance was investigated in 45 preschool Head Start children. There were 63 children assessed using the Slosson Intelligence Test for Children (SIT), and based upon these scores, were divided into three IQ groups: low, average and high. There were 15 children randomly selected from each group and within each of these groups, subjects were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: Control (C) , Pretest experimental (E1), and no pretest experimental (E 2). The C and E1 groups were administered the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT), Form A, according to standardized procedures. Three weeks later all groups were assessed using the PPVT, Form B, with a token being contingent on correct responses. Three weeks later all children were assessed with a standardized administration of the PPVT, Form A. Results showed that tokens given contingent upon each correct response increased the IQ scores for the initially low IQ subjects, but had no significant effect on the scores of the average and high IQ subjects. The increase in the IQ scores of the low IQ subjects was stable over time. The effectiveness of the reinforcer was empirically demonstrated.
title: A Peer-Managed Self-Control Program for Reduction of Alcohol Consumption in High School Students
Creators: name: Carpenter, Richard A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1981

description: Three treatments designed to reduce the consumption of alcohol by native American high school students were assessed and compared. Selfreferred and staff-referred clients were randomly assigned to three treatment groups: (1) alcohol education and a peer-assisted selfcontrol procedure, (2) a peer-assisted self-control procedure, and (3) a self-monitoring only procedure. All three treatments were conducted by trained peer counselors for 14 weeks. The alcohol education and peer-assisted self-control and the peer-assisted self-control demonstrated reductions in peak blood alcohol concentration, frequency of drinking incidents, and alcohol consumption. The self-monitoring only group demonstrated changes only in frequency of drinking incidents. No significant differences were found between the three treatment programs. Alcohol knowledge was found not to differ between groups and was not found to be related to changes in any of the drinking parameters. Selfesteem changes were found to be highest for Group 2 and were found to relate to changes in all the drinking parameters. Permissive versus abstinence attitudes were not found to differ between groups, but for all subjects higher abstinence attitude scores were found to be significantly related to decreases in peak blood alcohol concentration.
Exopolysaccharide production by Antarctic marine bacteria
Creators: name: Nichols, CAM
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Antarctic marine bacteria isolated from sea ice and Southern Ocean particulate material were screened for exopolysaccharide (EPS) production. Ten strains were characterized using phenotypic (morphology), chemotaxonomic (whole cell fatty acid profiles) and phylogenetic (16S rDNA sequencing) techniques. These isolates were representatives of four genera including Pseudoalteromonas, Shewanella, Polaribacter and Flavobacterium, with one strain constituting a new bacterial genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae. After further phenotypic characterisation, this strain was given the name Olleya marilimosa, gen. nov., sp. nov. The ten strains were grown in batch culture and the EPS extracted, purified and partially characterized. Crude chemical, monosaccharide and molecular weight determinations showed that the EPS were diverse, even among closely related isolates. All EPS contained uronic acids to varying degrees and some also contained sulfate groups. Two EPS showed the presence of acetyl groups, with pyruvate present in at least one polysaccharide. The bacteria belong to phylogenetic groups that are dominant in sea ice and Southern Ocean particulate material according to previous studies that used culture dependent and independent techniques. These isolates were psychrotolerant, grew between 2 to 25¬¨‚àûC and had growth optima at approximately 20¬¨‚àûC. Growth and EPS production of one isolate belonging to the genus Pseudoalteromonas was examined at three temperatures: -2¬¨‚àûC, 10¬¨‚àûC and 20¬¨‚àûC. EPS yield at -2¬¨‚àûC and 10¬¨‚àûC was thirty-fold higher than at 20¬¨‚àûC. The EPS showed higher levels of uronic acids at lower temperature. The metal binding ability of a high molecular weight, highly viscous EPS produced by one sea ice bacterium was examined. High affinities for cadmium and copper were observed at the low concentration of EPS used. These results are a first step in assessing the ability of EPS produced by Antarctic marine bacteria to chelate dissolved trace metal such as iron, which are essential for growth and are limiting primary production in the Southern Ocean. The examination of EPS production by Antarctic marine bacteria provides new evidence that these biopolymers are abundant and diverse. Partial structural elucidation reveals important structure-function relationships. EPS such as those examined in this study may have a cryoprotective role or may impact on the availability of important trace metals. These findings point to the wider ecological role of EPS within the Antarctic marine environment. This study also provides incentive for further investigation into commercial usefulness of these biopolymers.
title: Retention and Attrition Factors of Nonreturning Students at Utah State University
Creators: name: Jordan, Amy L.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1981

description: The purpose of this study was to determine the factors which affected the decision of students not to return to Utah State University after completion of the previous quarter. The factors were determined by a mailed questionnaire which was a modification of the Withdrawing/ Nonreturning Student Survey developed by American College Testing (ACT).
One hundred twenty-two former Utah State University students who had attended fall quarter, 1979 but failed to register for winter quarter were randomly chosen for the study. The students were asked to complete the questionnaire and return it to Utah State University. The return rate through the mail was low and many were completed over the telephone.
The results indicated that full-time employment, financial difficulties, marital plans, and the decision to attend a different college or university were the factors cited most frequently as reasons for not returning to Utah State University.
A recommendation was made for the staff members who work with freshmen to be made aware of the large numbers of these students who do not return to Utah State University. It was also suggested that the distribution system for financial aids be reviewed to determine the most effective utilization of their resources for retention of students. Also, Utah State University may want to explore the special needs of out-of-state students with regard to social life. A study which further investigates the attrition rates of graduate students was recommended.

description: We present and analyse light curves of four transits of the Southern hemisphere extrasolar planetary system WASP-4, obtained with a telescope defocussed so the radius of each point spread function was 17 arcsec (44 pixels). This approach minimises both random and systematic errors, allowing us to achieve scatters of between 0.60 and 0.88 mmag per observation over complete transit events. The light curves are augmented by published observations and analysed using the JKTEBOP code. The results of this process are combined with theoretical stellar model predictions to derive the physical properties of the WASP-4 system. We find that the mass and radius of the planet are M_b = 1.289 {+0.090 -0.090} {+0.039 -0.000} MJup and R_b = 1.371 {+0.032 -0.035} {+0.021 -0.000} RJup, respectively (statistical and systematic uncertainties). These quantities give a surface gravity and density of g_b = 17.03 +0.97 -0.54 m/s2 and rho_b = 0.500 {+0.032 -0.021} {+0.000 -0.008} rhoJup, and fit the trends for short-period extrasolar planets to have relatively high masses and surface gravities. WASP-4 is now one of the best-quantified transiting extrasolar planetary systems, and significant further progress requires improvements to our understanding of the physical properties of low-mass stars.

title: Cause and Perceived Seriousness of Deviant Behavior and Attribution of Responsibility
Creators: name: Morris, Mary Kathryn
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1981

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between differing stated causes of deviant behavior which is commonly labelled mental illness, and the perceived seriousness of these behaviors in determining judgments of the degree of responsibility attributed to described deviant individuals. This was accomplished by having subjects rate four different vignettes as to degree of perceived seriousness and degree of responsibility for behavior.
The subjects were 76 undergraduate students enrolled in either introductory psychology and/or introductory anthropology. The subjects were divided into four groups. Each group of 19 subjects received the same four vignettes. Each vignette gave a behavioral description which was characteristic of one of four categories of mental illness: paranoid schizophrenic, simple schizophrenic, depressed neurotic, and phobic compulsive. Each group received a different stated cause for the described behavior. These causes were biological, social learning, unknown, and both biological and social learning. The subjects were asked to rate the individual described in each vignette as to how serious they perceived the individual's behavior to be on a scale of 1-4. Subjects were also asked to rate how responsible the described individual was, in their judgment, for his behavior on a scale of 1-5.
The specific questions addressed by this study were: (1) Does the degree of responsibility for deviant behavior attributed by normal individuals to various types of described deviant behavior vary as a function of the stated cause of behavior? (2) Does the degree of responsibility for deviant behavior attributed by normal individuals to various types of described deviant behavior vary as a function of the perceived seriousness of the behavior? and (3) Do stated cause and perceived seriousness of behavior interact in determining the degree of responsibility normal individuals attribute to deviant individuals.
The results of this study indicated that there is a significant relationship between the perceived seriousness and degree of responsibility attributed to deviant individuals. More specifically, the paranoid schizophrenic individual, rated as the most serious, was seen as significantly less responsible than the less serious depressed neurotic or phobic compulsive individual. No significant main effect was found for the stated cause of behavior and no significant interaction, cause by perceived seriousness, was found.
These results provide support for the notion that perceived seriousness contributes more to the determination of attribution of responsibility than does the stated cause of behavior. The implications of these findings as they relate to psychiatric rehabilitation were discussed as were the limitations of this study which included concerns regarding instrumentation and statistical analysis.

Thesis on living
Creators: name: Sander, Mary
Publisher: name: University of Oregon
Year: 1932

description: The subject of living, itself, is far greater than either my time or ability can cope with, and through necessity, it must be narrowed down to a bird's eye view of living as seen by a nurse. Naturally, the health part of living will be my vantage point; from here I'll undoubtedly ramble from physician to nurse, punctuated with psychology, interspersed with psychiatry and sociology. From all these must come my own viewpoint of living.
Archaeological Geosemantics, the final chapter
Creators: name: Cripps, Paul
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2016

description: This resource is a single blog post created as part of the Day of Archaeology initiative. The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.
The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.
title: Marital Roles and Their Relationship to Marital Happiness and Self Concept
Creators: name: DeVries, Gary L.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1981

description: Marital roles have become a subject of major concern in recent years. Many critiques consider traditional marriage roles to be responsible for hindering appropriate social-emotional development of the wife, in particular, and also the husband. Past research in assessing the relationship between marital roles and the happiness and well-being of husbands and wives is limited in quantity and generally is inconclusive or controversial. This study was designed to clarify the relationship between marriage roles and two dependent variables, marital happiness and self concept.
The sample population consisted of 124 volunteer couples selected from the teaching staffs of eight school districts in Southeastern Idaho and Northern Utah. Each participant provided information for this study by completing a questionnaire, the Tennessee Self Concept Scale, the Marriage Adjustment Scale, and the Marriage Role Expectation Inventory. Forty-three variables were generated from these measures which, when factor analyzed produced 12 factors for husbands and 10 factors for wives, served as dependent and independent variables for this study.
Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to identify relationships between dependent variables (self concept and marital happiness of husbands and wives) and independent variables {i.e., level of education; hours spent as an employee, religious volunteer, and in community service; freedom to choose present role; income level). Husbands and wives were assessed independent of each other.
None of the independent variables explained a significant amount of the variance on marital happiness or self concept neither when considered alone nor when stepped together in the multiple regression model. Thus, no significant relationship was determined between marital roles and marital happiness or self concept. Recommendations were made for studying more diversified populations and for controlling sample bias resulting from the use of volunteers.

description: We introduce the new IR-improved Dokshitzer-Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi-Callan-Symanzik (DGLAP-CS) kernels recently developed by one of us into the HERWIG6.5 to generate a new MC, HERWIRI1.0(31), for hadron-hadron scattering at high energies. We use MC data to compare the parton shower generated by the standard DGLAP-CS kernels and that generated by the new IR-improved DGLAP-CS kernels. The seamless interface to MC@NLO, MC@NLO/HERWIRI, is illustrated. We show comparisons with FNAL data and we discuss some possible LHC phenomenology implications.
