description: The autistic-developed monotropism account suggests that atypical, domain-general attentional hyper-focus on interests is a central aspect of autism, but domain-general attention differences in autism can manifest differently. Prior research suggests autistic children are often slow to disengage attention from stimuli—a pattern often called “sticky attention”—and that they can show reduced novelty preference. These attentional patterns could influence sensory experiences and learning. We used eye-tracking to investigate novelty preference and “sticky attention” in young autistic children; we also examined whether attentional patterns were related to cognitive abilities and caregiver-reported sensory responsiveness. A total of 46 autistic and 28 nonautistic participants, aged between 2 and 4 years, provided usable data. We found no evidence that autistic children exhibited greater “sticky attention” than nonautistics, but “sticky attention” in autism was associated with more caregiver-reported sensory hyper-responsiveness, seeking/interests, and enhanced perception. Autistic children also nonsignificantly trended toward exhibiting reduced novelty preference. Unexpectedly, the time-course of this trending novelty preference difference implied it was not driven by reduced orienting to novelty, but increased returning to already-familiarized stimuli: what we call “springy attention.” Exploratory analyses of data from the attentional disengagement task suggest autistic participants may have exhibited greater “springy attention,” though further research with paradigms optimized for measuring this construct should confirm this. Importantly, “springy attention” was robustly related to reduced cognitive abilities and greater caregiver-reported hypo-responsiveness. Thus, this study illuminates two distinct domain-general attentional patterns, each with distinct correlates in young autistic children, which could have important implications for understanding autistic children's learning, development, and experiences.

title: LGBTIQ* und Heteronormativität
Creators: name: Spenlingwimmer, Lukas
Year: 2021

description: Der Hintergrund dieser Arbeit ist das in der Alltagswelt zu beobachtende Problem der Tabuisierung bis hin zur Diskriminierung nicht-heteronormativer Lebenswelten. Mit dem Ziel, den Wandel einer gebotsorientierten Autoritätsgesellschaft in eine diversitätsakzeptierende Gesellschaft im Zusammenhang mit LGBTIQ* Menschen in Österreich (deutschsprachige Länder) zu erfassen, wird die Situation bzw. die Lebensqualität von nicht der Heteronorm entsprechenden Personen von den 1970er Jahren bis in die Gegenwart in Form einer Diskursanalyse und eines Queeren Readings untersucht. Lebensweltliche Geschichten und Diskurse werden zum Abbild der gesellschaftlichen Stellung von LGBTIQ* Menschen herangezogen, durch historische und gegenwartsbezogene Quellen (rechtliche Grundlagen, Studien, Biografien, Interviews, lebensweltliche Geschichten, etc.) empirisch untermauert und in ihrem Kontext analysiert. Dabei wird die zentrale Frage gestellt wie sich der Übergang einer gebotsorientierten Autoritätsgesellschaft in eine diversitätsakzeptierende Gesellschaft auf Lebenswelten und Diskurse von LGBTIQ* Menschen auswirkte und wie diversitätsakzeptierend die Gesellschaft von den 1970er Jahren in Österreich bis heute wirklich war. Trotz einer steigenden Tendenz der Akzeptanz von den 1970er Jahren bis in die Gegenwart gegenüber LGBTIQ* Menschen kommt diese Arbeit in einem Ergebnisteil zum Fazit, dass heteronormatives Denken in unserer Gesellschaft nach wie vor stark vorhanden ist. Heteronormativität ist in diesem Zusammenhang als eine Beschränkung von eigenständigen biographischen Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten und als Begrenzung der eigenen Handlungsmacht anzusehen.
description: The background of this work is the problem of tabooing up to the discrimination of non-heteronormative humans that can be observed in everyday life. With the aim of capturing the change from a command-oriented authority society into a diversity-accepting society in connection with LGBTIQ * people in Austria (German-speaking countries), the situation and quality of life of non-heteronormous people from the 1970s to the present will be inspected in shape of a discourse and a queer reading analysis. Lifeworld stories and discourses are used to depict the social position of LGBTIQ * people, empirically supported by historical and contemporary sources (legal foundations, studies, biographies, interviews, lifeworld stories, etc.) and analyzed in their context. The central question is how the transition from a command-oriented authority society to a diversity-accepting society affected the lifeworlds and discourses of LGBTIQ * people and how diversity-accepting the society from the 1970s to today really was in Austria. Despite an increasing tendency of acceptance towards LGBTIQ * people from the 1970s to the present, this work comes to the conclusion that heteronormative thinking is still very much present in our society. In this context, heteronormativity is to be seen as a restriction of independent biographical design possibilities and as a limitation of one's own agency.

description: Let $M_{1,2}(F)$ be the algebra of $3 \times 3$ matrices with orthosymplectic superinvolution $*$ over a field $F$ of characteristic zero. We study the $*$-identities of this algebra through the representation theory of the group $\mathbb{H}_n = (\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2) \sim S_n$. We decompose the space of multilinear $*$-identities of degree $n$ into the sum of irreducibles under the $\mathbb{H}_n$-action in order to study the irreducible characters appearing in this decomposition with non-zero multiplicity. Moreover, by using the representation theory of the general linear group, we determine all the $*$-polynomial identities of $M_{1,2}(F)$ up to degree $3$.

description: The following work explains the dark tourism of Chernobyl. The first chapter describes in general how dark tourism can be defined, delimited, and categorised and how Chernobyl can be classified. The next chapter explains Chernobyl more detailed and shows how the accident occurred and what the consequences of the reactor disaster in 1986 are. Subsequently, Chernobyl as a dark tourism site is examined, i.e., how it developed, and which offers can be found for tourists. In the empirical part, five general studies of different dark tourism sites are compared with each other and the main motives of the tourists are worked out. Afterwards three studies of Chernobyl will be compared, and the main motives of the visitors will be filtered out. Finally, the results will be compared and discussed.
Koina/Prosit_2023_intensity_TOF
Creators: name: Ludwig, Lautenbacher
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: The Prosit_2023_intensity_TOF model in Koina compatible format developed by Charlotte Adams, et al. The HCD Prosit 2020 model was fine-tuned using 277,781 MS/MS spectra of both tryptic and non-tryptic synthesized peptides measured on a timsTOF Pro. The model architecture remained unchanged. The data was split into three distinct sets with each peptide and subsequence of a peptide only included in one of the three: training (80%, 153,809 tryptic PSMs and 77,577 non-tryptic PSMs), validation (10%, 16,483 tryptic PSMs and 7,778 non-tryptic PSMs), and test (10%, 14,262 tryptic PSMs and 7,872 non-tryptic PSMs).
 For this project, over 300,000 non-tryptic peptides from the ProteomeTools project were measured. Our measurements encompassed a range of collision energies from 20.81 EV to 69.77 eV. The data was analyzed using MaxQuant version 2.1.2.0 with carbamidomethylated cysteine specified as a fixed modification and methionine oxidation as a variable modification.
 The HCD Prosit 2020 model was originally trained on approximately 30 million MS/MS spectra, consisting of 9 million MS/MS spectra of non-tryptic peptides and 21 million previously published tryptic MS/MS spectra. The comparison between the HCD Prosit 2020 model and the newly developed TOF Prosit 2023 model reveals a substantial improvement in normalized spectral contrast angle (SA) between predicted and experimental timsTOF MS/MS spectra for both non-tryptic and tryptic peptides. The TOF Prosit 2023 model achieved a SA ≥ 0.9 for 26.3% of non-tryptic spectra (compared to 2.4% with HCD Prosit 2020) and 42.1% of tryptic spectra (compared to 0.2% with HCD Prosit 2020).
 The TOF Prosit 2023 model demonstrates consistent performance across different precursor charges, peptide lengths, and collision energies, with minimal bias towards C- and N-terminal amino acids. Both the tryptic and non-tryptic timsTOF data are available via PRIDE, with the identifiers PXD019086 and PXD043844, respectively.
Voltage dependence of Hodgkin-Huxley rate functions for a multi-stage K channel voltage sensor within a membrane

description: The activation of a $K^+$ channel sensor in two sequential stages during a voltage clamp may be described as the translocation of a Brownian particle in an energy landscape with two large barriers between states. A solution of the Smoluchowski equation for a square-well approximation to the potential function of the S4 voltage sensor satisfies a master equation, and has two frequencies that may be determined from the forward and backward rate functions. When the higher frequency terms have small amplitude, the solution reduces to the relaxation of a rate equation, where the derived two-state rate functions are dependent on the relative magnitude of the forward rates ($α$ and $γ$) and the backward rates ($β$ and $δ$) for each stage. In particular, the voltage dependence of the Hodgkin-Huxley rate functions for a $K^+$ channel may be derived by assuming that the rate functions of the first stage are large relative to those of the second stage - $α\gg γ$ and $β\gg δ$. For a {\em Shaker} IR $K^+$ channel, the first forward and backward transitions are rate limiting ($α< γ$ and $δ\ll β$), and for an activation process with either two or three stages, the derived two-state rate functions also have a voltage dependence that is of a similar form to that determined for the squid axon. The potential variation generated by the interaction between a two-stage $K^+$ ion channel and a noninactivating $Na^+$ ion channel is determined by the master equation for $K^+$ ion channel activation and the ionic current equation when the $Na^+$ ion channel activation time is small, and if $β\ll δ$ and $α\ll γ$, the system may exhibit a small amplitude oscillation between spikes, or mixed-mode oscillation.

description: Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die kritische Auseinandersetzung mit zwei divergierenden Konzeptionen eines Islam im europäischen Kontext: dem Begriff des „Euro-Islam“ von Bassam Tibi und dem Identitätsdiskurs bei Tariq Ramadan. Die unterschiedlichen Überlegungen der beiden Autoren mit den ihnen zugrundeliegenden Begrifflichkeiten sowie deren Argumentation werden dar- und einander gegenübergestellt und auf diese Weise kritisch eingeordnet. Es handelt sich um zwei paradigmatische Positionen, die im allgemeinen Diskurs über den Islam in Europa ihren Niederschlag finden. Für die Herausarbeitung der zentralen Gedanken und Differenzen wird eine diskursanalytische Herangehensweise gewählt, die eine Meta-Perspektive auf die Thematik erlaubt.
description: This thesis aims at a critical analysis of two opposing notions of Islam in a European context: the “euro-Islam” concept introduced by Bassam Tibi and the identity discourse as presented by Tariq Ramadan. The two authors’ divergent approaches, with the terminology used and the arguments brought forward for and against them, are presented and contrasted with each other, thus undergoing a critical assessment. The positions in question may be considered paradigmatic and are widely reflected in the discourse on Islam in Europe. For the elaboration of their central ideas and the differences between them, a discourse analytical approach is chosen that allows to adopt a meta-perspective on the topic.

title: Refugees : from gaps in protection to case law
Creators: name: Hamdan, Hanan Malek
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: My choice to study refugee issues and related humanitarian problems stems first from a personal experience. Living most of my life in a country shattered by violence and war, and hosting a large number of refugees from other neighbouring countries drew my attention to this problem. Being myself exposed to internal displacement, where we had to leave from one place to another, to seek safety, also made me aware of the problems that these vulnerable groups face. My later work with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, where we had to deal with caseloads of Iraqi, Sudanese, and Sahrawi refugees, made me more interested and dedicated to studying this topic. This thesis is aimed at addressing refugee problems since the creation of the refugee system during the Cold War. It addresses some of the gaps in refugee protection since the end of the Cold War and later developments, particularly the increase in the number of refugees, the change in the nature of the refugee flows and their geographical locations, the asylum crises, and the increasingly restrictive interpretation of the Convention. After studying the gap in international protection, the different approaches that emerged as a result of this development are addressed. Corridors of Tranquillity, Safety Zones or Safe Havens started emerging, which aimed at addressing relief and providing protection to people within their countries of origin. The thesis examines the concept of Safe Havens and its impact on refugee flows. The Safe Havens in north Iraq and the Safe Humanitarian Zone in Rwanda are the chosen case studies. The main approach in this thesis has been to concentrate on the legal perspective. In studying the gaps in refugee protection, the gaps in the law or the interpretation of the law are analysed and when, addressing the concept of Safe Havens, the legal background for creating these areas is also analysed. Political problems are also discussed, but more attention is given to the legal aspects. This is due to the fact that the legal aspect of the problem is often not sufficiently addressed when studying the topic of refugees in the field of International Relations. As mentioned at a later point in this thesis, the concept of Safe Havens is not studied as a substitute for asylum, or a concept, which threatens asylum. Rather it is studied as a reaction, which gives an opportunity to people in conflict situations to seek refuge within the borders of their countries, until a more permanent solution is found.

Delay stabilizes stochastic motion of bumps in layered neural fields

description: We study the effects of propagation delays on the stochastic dynamics of bumps in neural fields with multiple layers. In the absence of noise, each layer supports a stationary bump. Using linear stability analysis, we show that delayed coupling between layers causes translating perturbations of the bumps to decay in the noise-free system. Adding noise to the system causes bumps to wander as a random walk. However, coupling between layers can reduce the variability of this stochastic motion by canceling noise that perturbs bumps in opposite directions. Delays in interlaminar coupling can further reduce variability, since they couple bump positions to states from the past. We demonstrate these relationships by deriving an asymptotic approximation for the effective motion of bumps. This yields a stochastic delay-differential equation where each delayed term arises from an interlaminar coupling. The impact of delays is well approximated by using a small delay expansion, which allows us to compute the effective diffusion in bumps' positions, accurately matching results from numerical simulations.

description: We study Gaussian fluctuations of the zero-temperature attractive Fermi gas in the 2D BCS-BEC crossover showing that they are crucial to get a reliable equation of state in the BEC regime of composite bosons, bound states of fermionic pairs. A low-momentum expansion up to the fourth order of the quadratic action of the fluctuating pairing field gives an ultraviolent divergent contribution of the Gaussian fluctuations to the grand potential. Performing dimensional regularization we evaluate the effective coupling constant in the beyond-mean-field grand potential. Remarkably, in the BEC regime our grand potential gives exactly the Popov's equation of state of 2D interacting bosons, and allows us to identify the scattering length $a_B$ of the interaction between composite bosons as $a_B=a_F/(2^{1/2}e^{1/4})= 0.551... a_F$, with $a_F$ is the scattering length of fermions. Remarkably, the value from our analytical relationship between the two scattering lengths is in full agreement with that obtained by recent Monte Carlo calculations.

Helicitogenesis: WIMPy baryogenesis with sterile neutrinos and other realizations

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We propose a mechanism for baryogenesis from particle decays or annihilations that can work at the TeV scale. Some heavy particles annihilate or decay into a heavy sterile neutrino N (with M > 0.5 TeV) and a "light" one ν(with m << 100 GeV), generating an asymmetry among the two helicity degrees of freedom of ν. This asymmetry is partially transferred to Standard Model leptons via fast Yukawa interactions and reprocessed into a baryon asymmetry by the electroweak sphalerons. We illustrate this mechanism in a WIMPy baryogenesis model where the helicity asymmetry is generated in the annihilation of dark matter. This model connects the baryon asymmetry, dark matter, and neutrino masses. Moreover it also complements previous studies on general requirements for baryogenesis from dark matter annihilation. Finally we discuss other possible realizations of this helicitogenesis mechanism.

description: Zehn Jahre nach der strafrechtlichen Verfolgung der Cap Anamur im Jahr 2004, avancierten NGOs zu einem der wichtigsten Seenotrettungsakteur*innen des Mittelmeers. Die vorliegende Arbeit analysiert die Zusammenhänge zwischen den Maßnahmen des europäischen Grenzre-gimes und den Auswirkungen dieser auf die Arbeit von zivilgesellschaftlichen Seenotrettungs-akteur*innen im Mittelmeer. Über die Analyse von schriftlichen Dokumenten durch die Me-thode der qualitativen inhaltlich-strukturierenden Inhaltsanalyse wurden Schlüsselereignisse innerhalb des Untersuchungszeitraumes von 2004 bis 2017 beleuchtet, und somit Rückschlüs-se über die signifikantesten Entwicklungen innerhalb der Thematik der Seenotrettung gezogen. Die Auswertung dieser qualitativen Studie zeigen, dass das europäische Grenzregime auch vor dem Hintergrund international verankerter Rechten und Obligation, Einfluss auf die Tätigkeit zivilgesellschaftlicher Akteur*innen im Mittelmeer nehmen kann. Durch eine voranschreitende exterretorialisierung und humanitarisierung der Mittelmeergrenze, die durch die Analyse der Abkommen zwischen Italien, der Europäischen Union und Libyen dargestellt wurde, wird der Handlungsraum von zivilgesellschaftlichen Akteur*innen der Seenotrettung im Mittelmeer zu-nehmend eingeschränkt, und ihr Weiterbestehen gefährdet.
description: Ten years after the criminal prosecution of the Cap Anamur in 2004, Non-Governmental Or-ganisations became one of the most important providers of Rescue at Sea in the Mediterranean Sea. The following thesis analyses the correlations between the measures of the european bor-der regime and their impact on the work of non-governmental organisations. Via the analysis of written documents through the implementation of the scientific method of qualitative con-tent structuring content analysis, key events have been highlighted regarding their influence on significant developments within the topic of rescue at sea. The evaluation of this qualitative study shows that the european border regime is able to influence the work of Non-Governmental Organisations even against the background of internationally recognized duties and laws. The advancing externalization and humanitarization of the Mediterranean border increasingly reduce the room to manoeuvre for civil society actors, and therefore threatens their existence.

description: This article delves into the intricate interplay between time dilation, quantum mechanics, and their profound philosophical implications. Beginning with Einstein's theory of relativity, the discussion explores time dilation at both macroscopic and microscopic scales, elucidating its impact on particles and the fabric of spacetime. From high-energy particle accelerators to the enigmatic world of quantum particles, the effects of time dilation challenge our conventional understanding of time and space. Philosophical concepts such as time equivalence and quantum indistinguishability further blur the boundaries of temporal reality. Through a comprehensive exploration of scientific experiments and theoretical frameworks, this article navigates the complexities of time, inviting readers to contemplate the multifaceted nature of one of the universe's most enigmatic dimensions.
 
Dieser Artikel befasst sich mit dem komplizierten Zusammenspiel von Zeitdilatation, Quantenmechanik und ihren tiefgreifenden philosophischen Implikationen. Ausgehend von Einsteins Relativitätstheorie untersucht die Diskussion die Zeitdilatation sowohl auf makroskopischer als auch auf mikroskopischer Ebene und erläutert ihre Auswirkungen auf Teilchen und das Gefüge der Raumzeit. Von hochenergetischen Teilchenbeschleunigern bis hin zur rätselhaften Welt der Quantenteilchen stellen die Auswirkungen der Zeitdilatation unser herkömmliches Verständnis von Zeit und Raum in Frage. Philosophische Konzepte wie Zeitäquivalenz und Quantenununterscheidbarkeit verwischen die Grenzen der zeitlichen Realität weiter. Durch eine umfassende Untersuchung wissenschaftlicher Experimente und theoretischer Rahmenbedingungen navigiert dieser Artikel durch die Komplexität der Zeit und lädt die Leser ein, über die vielschichtige Natur einer der rätselhaftesten Dimensionen des Universums nachzudenken.

description: We show that measure theoretical results concerning the Ashtekar-Lewandowski measure in the space of generalized connections have direct analogues in the context of the Bohr compactification of the line and associated Haar measure. We present also a characterization of the support of the measure associated with the canonical quantization of the free massive scalar field, following closely well known analogous results concerning the Euclidean path integral measure.

description: TOTTA outlines the spatial position and rotation guidance of a real/virtual tool (TO) towards a real/virtual target (TA), which is a key task in Mixed Reality applications. The task error can have critical consequences regarding safety, performance, and quality, such as in surgical implantology or industrial maintenance scenarios. The TOTTA problem lacks a dedicated study and is scattered across different domains with isolated designs. This work contributes to a systematic review of the TOTTA visual widgets, studying 70 unique designs from 24 papers. TOTTA is commonly guided by visual overlap an intuitive, pre-attentive 'collimation' feedback of simple-shaped widgets: Box, 3D Axes, 3D Model, 2D Crosshair, Globe, Tetrahedron, Line, and Plane. Our research discovers that TO and TA are often represented with the same shape. They are distinguished by topological elements (e.g., edges, vertices, faces), colors, transparency levels, and added shapes, widget quantity, and size. Meanwhile, some designs provide continuous 'during manipulation feedback' relative to the distance between TO and TA by text, dynamic color, sonification, and amplified graphical visualization. Some approaches trigger discrete 'TA reached feedback,' such as color alteration, added sound, TA shape change, and added text. We found a lack of golden standards, including in testing procedures, as current ones are limited to partial sets with different and incomparable setups (different target configurations, avatar, background, etc.). We also found a bias in participants: right-handed, young male, non-color impaired.

Measurements of normalized differential cross-sections for ttbar production in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector

description: Measurements of normalized differential cross-sections for top-quark pair production are presented as a function of the top-quark transverse momentum, and of the mass, transverse momentum, and rapidity of the ttbar system, in proton--proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb^-1, recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Events are selected in the lepton+jets channel, requiring exactly one lepton and at least four jets with at least one of the jets tagged as originating from a b-quark. The measured spectra are corrected for detector efficiency and resolution effects and are compared to several Monte Carlo simulations and theory calculations. The results are in fair agreement with the predictions in a wide kinematic range. Nevertheless, data distributions are softer than predicted for higher values of the mass of the ttbar system and of the top-quark transverse momentum. The measurements can also discriminate among different sets of parton distribution functions.

description: We study the anisotropic Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation using nonperturbative renormalization group methods. In contrast to a previous analysis in the weak-coupling regime we find the strong coupling fixed point corresponding to the isotropic rough phase to be always locally stable and unaffected by the anisotropy even at non-integer dimensions. Apart from the well-known weak coupling and the now well established isotropic strong coupling behavior, we find an anisotropic strong coupling fixed point for nonlinear couplings of opposite signs at non-integer dimensions.

description: Speckle polarimeter (SPP) is a facility instrument of the 2.5-m telescope of the Caucasian Mountain Observatory of SAI MSU. By design it is a combination of a speckle interferometer and a dual--beam polarimeter. In 2022 we performed a major upgrade of the instrument. New version of the instrument features Hamamatsu ORCA-Quest qCMOS C15550-20UP, having subelectron readout noise, as a main detector, as opposed to EMCCD Andor iXon 897 used in previous version. Optical distortions present in the instrument are considered as they directly affect the accuracy of the speckle interferometric astrometric measurements of binary stars. We identified the Atmospheric Dispersion Compensator (ADC) as the main source of distortions which are not constant and depend on the rotational angles of ADCs prisms. Distortions are estimated using internal calibration light source and multiple binary stars measurements. Method for their correction is developed. Flux ratio estimates are subject to CMOS-specific negative factors: spatially correlated noise and flux-dependent pixel-to-pixel sensitivity difference. We suggest ways to mitigate these factors. The use of speckle transfer function measured using a reference star further improves flux ratio estimation performance. We discuss the precision of the estimates of position angle, separation and flux ratio of binary stars.

description: This current dissertation used case study (Yin, 2018) to examine United States female college students’ perceptions of their financial literacy, especially with respect to their debt accumulation and the gender wage gap, at a public, 4-year institution in New Jersey. It answered the following research questions: How are student debt, financial literacy, and the gender wage gap experienced and/or perceived by the participants? How do indebted female college seniors at a public, 4-year New Jersey institution make financial decisions? The study relied upon Yin’s framework (Yin, 2018). It employed purposive and snowball sampling to recruit participants (n=14) (Lune & Berg, 2017), Charmaz’s intensive interviewing to interview participants using a semi-structured interview (Charmaz, 2014), and Braun and Clarke’s thematic analysis to analyze the data (Braun & Clarke, 2014). Results were analyzed using NVivo qualitative software. It was found that participants were determined to earn their bachelor’s degrees despite the many obstacles they endured. There were five subthemes: 1) Degree Attainment: Not if, but how? 2) Need for increased financial literacy; 3) Making the Most of the Investment in College 4) Gender wage gap: Current and future experience; and 5) Pandemic: Negatives and Positives.
title: Zur Wirkung und Wahrnehmung sprachlicher Varietäten im Kontext politischer Internet-Memes
Creators: name: Wechselberger, Tanja

description: Diese Masterarbeit untersucht die Wirkung und Wahrnehmung sprachlicher Varietäten im Kontext politischer Internet-Memes anhand von Studierenden in Österreich. Um die Forschungsfrage, inwiefern sich die Spracheinstellungen zum Standard- und Dialektgebrauch im Kontext politischer Image Macros bei Studierenden aus Österreich unterscheiden, beantworten zu können, wurde Studierenden aus Wien und Salzburg ein Online-Fragebogen mit selbst kreierten Image Macro-Adaptionen vorgelegt. Die Image Macro-Adaptionen, welche ausschließlich Bilder von Sebastian Kurz beinhalten, wurden anhand einer 5-stufigen Skala bewertet. Dabei bekam der/die ProbandIn entweder die Image Macro-Adaptionen im Standard oder im Dialekt zu sehen. Für die Masterarbeit wurden insgesamt drei Hypothesen aufgestellt und überprüft. Die erste Hypothese, dass Image Macro-Adaptionen, deren Sprachbestandteile im Standard verfasst sind, eine positivere Wirkung und Wahrnehmung evozieren als Image Macro-Adaptionen, die im Dialekt geschrieben wurden, konnte weder bestätigt noch belegt werden. Eine zweite These, die besagt, dass Studierende, welche die ÖVP wählen, die Image Macro-Adaptionen als weniger lustig wahrnehmen als Studierende, die eine andere Partei gewählt haben, konnte nicht verifiziert werden. Auch die Annahme, dass Studierende mit geringer Dialektkompetenz die Image Macro-Adaptionen mit Sprachbestandteilen im Dialekt negativer bewerten würden als Studierende mit hoher Dialektkompetenz, wurde widerlegt.
description: This master's thesis examines the effect and perception of linguistic varieties in the context of political Internet memes on the basis of students in Austria. To answer the research question to what extent language attitudes towards standard and dialect usage in the context of political image macros differ among students from Austria, students from Vienna and Salzburg were presented with an online questionnaire containing image macro adaptations they had created themselves. The image macro adaptations, which exclusively contained images of Sebastian Kurz, were rated using a 5-level scale. The subject was shown the image macro adaptations either in standard or in dialect. A total of three hypotheses were formulated and tested for the master's thesis. The first hypothesis, that image-macro-adaptations whose speech components are written in standard will evoke a more positive effect and perception than image-macro-adaptations written in dialect, could neither be confirmed nor proven. A second hypothesis, that students who voted for the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) perceived the image macro-adaptations as less funny than students who voted for another party, could not be verified. Also, the assumption that students with low dialect competence would evaluate the image macro adaptations with language components in dialect more negatively than students with high dialect competence could not be disproved.
