Flash photolysis of intermediates in hydrated electron reactions
Creators: name: Vidyarthi, Suinil Kumar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A triple flash photolysis apparatus is described. Hydrated electrons (e[sup - / sub aq]) produced by U.V. flash photolysis of some common inorganic anions (OH⁻, SO[sup = / sub 4]) were monitored at 633 nm. This species was identified by its absorption spectrum and by the effect of well known electron scavengers. In the absence of an electron scavenger, e[sup - / sub aq] decayed largely by a second order process to form a comparatively long lived (τ~ms) intermediate, X. Results indicate that X is probably a dimeric hydrated electron (e[sup 2-/ sub 2])[sub aq] or a product therefrom and can be photodissociated in the 300 - 400 nm region to regenerate hydrated electrons. Metal ions Ag⁺ and Tl⁺ react with e[sup - / sub aq] to produce the respective short lived metal atoms (hyper-reduced states) which also regenerate e[sup - / sub aq] by a second flash. M⁰ + hν (λ~ 300 nm) → M⁺ + e[sup - / sub aq] Ag⁰ has an absorption spectrum with λ[sub max] at 315 nm and an oscillator strength of 0.63. This band is assigned as charge-transfer-to-solvent (CTTS). Acetone, which reacts rapidly with e[sup - / sub aq], produces a transient, presumably (CH₃)₂CO)⁻, at pH 11. The absorption spectrum of this transient was recorded, (λ[sub max] = 255 nm, ε[sub max] ≈ 1.3 x 10⁴ M⁻¹ cm⁻¹) and its photo-max max ^ lysis in this region was again shown to regenerate e[sup - / sub aq]. Hence, it seems that the absorption spectra of many such transients may be CTTS bands in that they produce e[sup - / sub aq] upon photolysis. The decay of e[sup - / sub aq] was followed in the presence of some inorganic gases, e.g., SF₆, N₂O and Xe. The possibility of intermediate formation in those reactions are discussed. The carbonate radical ion, CO[sup - / sub 3], was produced during the flash photolysis of an N₂O saturated alkaline (pH 11) solution containing CO₂ and was studied by its absorption spectrum and decay kinetics. It was demonstrated that HCOO⁻ ions, methanol or 2-propanol, commonly used OH scavengers, yield e[sup - / sub aq] upon flash photolysis.
Materialising ritual : a visual investigation of the evocative power of ritual objects, through the medium of cloth and thread
Creators: name: O'Rourke, RA
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This research project has investigated ways in which visual qualities enhance the evocative power of ritual objects. Through the medium of cloth and thread the project aimed to find ways in which to visually represent intangible aspects of ritual such as wonder and talismanic protection. A key element of this aim was to explore ways in which to represent ritual action in still objects. The impetus for this project came from my own experiences of Catholic ritual and its objects, however it also considered a wider range of traditions of ritual practice both religious and secular. The project was not concerned directly with the spiritual, but rather with the very human activity that surrounds it. I was interested to discover what it was about ritual objects that distinguished them from other more 'everyday' objects, that is, what made them special. In order to carry out this investigation I considered various functions of existing ritual objects. These included their ability to manifest in material form what is essentially immaterial (prayers, intentions, hopes, and sentiments); to condense symbols; to evoke a sense of wonder and awe; to separate what is considered to be sacred from the profane; to be symbolically rather than physically instrumental; and to provide manuals for ritual action. My work is located primarily with reference to the work of other textile artists such as Anne Brennan, Louiseann Zahra and Elsje King who employ cloth and thread to embody a sense of intangible presence. Reference is also made to some of the works of Annette Massager and Janine Antoni which deal directly with ritual-like practice. My contribution to this field lies in the creation of quasi ritual objects which borrow existing aspects of ritual to explore how form, colour, ornament, labour, and material can be used to enhance an objects perceived 'power'. Primary to the development of these objects was the consideration of ways in which to visually suggest ritual action. This was explored through the use of physical form; stitching as a metaphor for the intense focus and repetitive nature of ritual participation; as well as the connotations that thread has of connectedness and its suggestion of paths.
title: Transitivity in the Choice Behavior of Rats
Creators: name: Duus, Richard
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1982

description: This study investigated the unidimensional assumption underlying choice behavior by examining the transitivity properties of rats' choice behavior. In Experiment 1, two variables of reinforcement, amount and delay, were manipulated simultaneously in a two lever choice situation. The conditions of strong transitivity were not present in either reponse count or indifference-measured choice behavior, indicating that choice behavior was not distributed along a single dimension with ratio scale characteristics. Moderate transitivity conditions were characteristic of both response and indifference- measured choice which was consistent with a single dimension possessing interval scale characteristics. In Experiment 2, only one reinforcement variable, amount, was manipulated. Strong transitivity was present in both response and indifference measures of choice, indicating that subjects' choice behavior was consistent with a single dimension with ratio scale characteristics.
In addition, one of two subjects in Experiment 1 and two of two subjects in Experiment 2 fit Baum's expression of the matching law with response-count measured choice. The indifference measure of choice failed to fit the matching law in either experiment. The measure of choice which fit the matching law also conformed to a single dimension with interval scale characteristics. Since the response-count measure of choice behavior in both Experiments 1 and 2 was moderately transitive, the transitivity properties were consistent with fits to the matching law. The occasional presence of such behaviors as biting the levers, chewing on the cue lights and position bias may have decreased subjects' sensitivity to the amount of reinforcement variable and contributed to undermatching. The indifference measure of choice exhibited moderate transitivity in both experiments but did not fit the matching law.
These results show that tests of transitivity are useful in examining the characteristics of the functional relation between behavior and its reinforcing consequences. Further research is required to determine the usefulness and the limitations of the indifference measure of choice behavior. The results were similar to other investigators' in showing that strong transitivity was not an automatic property of choice behavior and must be tested rather than assumed.

title: Verbal Interactions Among Elementary Students with the Jigsaw II Learning Method
Creators: name: Gilbert, Katherine
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1987

description: The cooperative learning method, Jigsaw II, was implemented in a grade four social studies class for the purpose of examining the verbal interactions among students as they learned from each other. Jigsaw II is structured to enhance cooperation because each student has exclusive information that is needed by other group members to do well on a test. It was hypothesized that the more capable students in a heterogeneous learning group would help the less capable ones learn the material. As the lower ability students gained proficiency in teaching their information, the variance in the rates of speaking would be less at the end of the implementation of Jigsaw II than at the beginning. This did not happen. There was homogeneity of variance between the rates of speaking at the beginning and the end. The rate of positive verbalizations (learning the information and group functioning) was over 80% at the beginning and increased slightly during the implementation of Jigsaw II, but was not statistically significant. There was large variability in the rates of verbalizations among students, as well as large variability in rates of speaking for individuals across different learning group sessions. Any trends in changes of rates of speaking were obscured by the high variability. The verbalization rate of the high ability students doubled, the rate of the middle ability increased 32% and the rate of low ability students remained unchanged. On five quizzes administered over the learning unit, the high ability student attained the highest quiz scores, but the low ability students performed as well as the middle ability students.
A model of Hall reconnection

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: The rate of quasi-stationary, two-dimensional magnetic reconnection is calculated in the framework of incompressible Hall magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The calculation is based on the solution of Hall-MHD equations that include Hall and electron pressure terms for electric current. These equations are solved in a local region across the reconnection electron layer, including only the upstream region and the layer center. In the case when the ion inertial length d_i is larger than the Sweet-Parker reconnection layer thickness, the dimensionless reconnection rate is found to be independent of the electrical resistivity and equal to d_i/L, where L is the scale length of the external magnetic field in the upstream region outside the electron layer.

title: An Investigation of the Five-Term Contingency and the Conditional Control of Equivalence Relations
Creators: name: Serna, Richard W.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1987

description: In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in the study of human operant behavior. One area of study reflecting this interest is the study of the formation of equivalent classes of stimuli by human subjects. The focus of the present research was the study of the conditions under which classes of equivalent stimuli can be inferred to be under conditional control.
In Experiment 1-A, three college students were trained to respond to a balanced five-term contingency via a visual-visual simultaneous matching-to-sample task with two choices of comparison stimuli. Probe tests showed that subjects' behavior could be described as being controlled by positive and negative stimulus relations. When the second-order stimulus was removed during subsequent probes, none of the three subjects demonstrated strong correct responses to the four-term unit relations. Also, none of the three subjects demonstrated the expected transitive relations when the second-order (five-term) stimulus was removed. In Experiment 1-B--with the same three subjects--explicit training of the four-term unit relations showed the expected transitive relations in the absence of the second-order stimulus.
In Experiments 2 through 5--using a matching-to-sample task similar to that used in Experiments 1-A and 1-B--five subjects were trained to respond to comparison stimuli C and E in the presence of sample A and second-order stimulus X and to comparison stimuli Band Fin the presence of sample D and second-order stimulus X. Likewise, the subjects were trained to respond to comparison stimuli Band Fin the presence of sample A and second-order stimulus Y and to comparison stimuli C and E in the presence of sample D and second-order stimulus Y. Probe tests for transitive relations showed that four of the five subjects eventually demonstrated four three-member classes of equivalent stimuli that functioned separately under the control of the second-order stimuli. The four subjects demonstrating the classes of equivalent stimuli either a) demonstrated the transitive relations immediately orb) demonstrated the transitive relations after explict retraining of the underlying four-term unit relations.
The results of all experiments together indicated that the composition of classes of equivalent stimuli can be conditionally controlled by either a) removing the second-order stimulus orb) training subjects to respond to classes of equivalent stimuli under the control of other explicit visual second-order stimuli. The results are discussed in terms of verbal behavior, emergent behavior, and conceptual development.

description: This community discussion seeks to bring together the instructors and facilitators tasked with upskilling researchers and support staff. While this collective dialogue among instructors is not new, what is new is the traction that various groups are getting. The newly formed group of eResearch support staff gathered by the Melbourne Data Analytics Platform (MDAP) and Sydney Informatics Hub (SIH) is one such group, as is the Lightweight Working Group (LWG): Researcher digital skills training data for enabling digital infrastructure use, spearheaded by University of Melbourne’s David Flanders during the pre-Skills Summit discussions. In this session we seek to build on the momentum, by including a hands-on working session. Participants are asked to come with information to share and questions they seek to answer. During the first half of this session, attendees will populate a public document with shareable training details. The goal is to at least double the size of the new cross-institutional national training collection started by the LWG. The second half of this session will be to ask questions to arrive at next steps. What do we need to do to continue building out this national training inventory and who will be in charge of maintaining and distributing the archive? What platforms exist and are used to capture training data and material and make it readily maintainable and findable? Can the material be reused and how do we recognise and capture re-use? Do we know about how to apply a license to our materials for appropriate reuse or do we need guidance? While there will likely be more questions than these, one question has been answered. When can we move from talking to doing? That time is now.

title: Sexual Orientation and Capacity for Intimacy
Creators: name: Harshbarger, Sandra Lee
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1987

description: Capacity for intimacy was examined as a function of sexual orientation. Sixty-six volunteers comprised four groups: heterosexual males, homosexual males, heterosexual females and homosexual females. Subjects' ages ranged from 19 to 61 and education levels ranged from 10 to 21 years of schooling. The four groups were comparable in terms of age, education level and general mental health.
Each volunteer responded to the following instruments: the Orlofsky Intimacy Interview (questionnaire format), the Yufit Intimacy-Isolation Questionnaire, the Rubin Like Scale, the Rubin Love Scale and the Gordon Personal Profile ( used to assess general mental health) . Responses were compiled and analyzed by either an analysis of variance or a chi-square technique.
The stereotype of the male homosexual as one who is incapable of achieving intimacy was not supported by this study. Likewise, it was found that lesbian women do not differ significantly from heterosexual women in their capacity for intimacy.

The strong focus on building community to complement training, has fostered an environment of learning, networking and sharing of expertise. Hear what the Graduate research students have to say about the value of skills training and how it has impacted their research; how the community has enabled them to network with a broad range of researchers and affiliate partner groups they would not ordinarily be in contact with; how their research journey has been enhanced by working as part of a multi-disciplinary team, as well as sharpening their teaching skills.
 The rapid refocus from face - face to online delivery, as a result of the pandemic, highlights the importance of the multi-faceted online approach including workshops, drop-in sessions, SLACK chat and online learning resources. As a result of the shift to online, the range of strategic external partner/affiliate groups has extended and demand for workshops and drop-ins has increased. Learn how the instructors have altered their pedagogical approach to engage workshop and drop-in participants; how they have overcome some of the challenges of facilitating in an online environment; and how this is preparing them to become part of a digitally skilled workforce.
After Insurgency: Revolution and Electoral Politics in El Salvador
Creators: name: Sprenkels, Ralph
Publisher: name: University of Notre Dame
Year: 2023

description: El Salvador's 2009 presidential elections marked a historical feat: Frente Farabundo Mart\u00ed para la Liberaci\u00f3n Nacional (FMLN) became the first former Latin American guerrilla movement to win the ballot after failing to take power by means of armed struggle. In 2014, former comandante Salvador S\u00e1nchez Cer\u00e9n became the country's second FMLN president. _After Insurgency_ focuses on the development of El Salvador's FMLN from armed insurgency to a competitive political party. At the end of the war in 1992, the historical ties between insurgent veterans enabled the FMLN to reconvert into a relatively effective electoral machine. However, these same ties also fueled factional dispute and clientelism. Drawing on in-depth ethnographic fieldwork, Ralph Sprenkels examines El Salvador's revolutionary movement as a social field, developing an innovative theoretical and methodological approach to the study of insurgent movements in general and their aftermath in particular, while weaving in the personal stories of former revolutionaries with a larger historical study of the civil war and of the transformation process of wartime forces into postwar political contenders. This allows Sprenkels to shed new light on insurgency's persistent legacies, both for those involved as well as for Salvadoran politics at large. In documenting the shift from armed struggle to electoral politics, the book adds to ongoing debates about contemporary Latin America politics, the 'pink tide,' and post-neoliberal electoralism. It also charts new avenues in the study of insurgency and its aftermath.

description: After the completion of the gallium solar neutrino experiments at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (GALLEX}: 1991-1997; GNO: 1998-2003) we have retrospectively updated the GALLEX results with the help of new technical data that were impossible to acquire for principle reasons before the completion of the low rate measurement phase (that is, before the end of the GNO solar runs). Subsequent high rate experiments have allowed the calibration of absolute internal counter efficiencies and of an advanced pulse shape analysis for counter background discrimination. The updated overall result for GALLEX (only) is (73.4 +7.1 -7.3) SNU. This is 5.3% below the old value of (77.5 + 7.5 -7.8) SNU (PLB 447 (1999) 127-133) with a substantially reduced error. A similar reduction is obtained from the reanalysis of the 51Cr neutrino source experiments of 1994/1995.

Regional responses to globalisation : managing the reorganisation of boundary processes
Creators: name: Orpin, Peter
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Globalisation has been the subject of central attention in the last decade, yet the ways in which the processes of globalisation and the global market are worked out at the local level remain poorly theorised. Regional and rural areas in Australia appear to be experiencing problems maintaining their economic viability and vitality in the face of global market changes. The thesis explores the global-local interface by analysing variations in rural and regional responses to globalisation in two rural areas showing seemingly different levels of adaptation to the global market. The study reveals that globalisation involves a process of progressive disorganisation and more complex reorganisation of networks and network boundaries, at all levels from the global to the local. This results in a global market that is increasing in size, scope and competitiveness providing a challenging environment for producers. Responses to these challenges in the study areas vary between a protective strengthening of local boundary processes, on one hand, and open and strategic engagement, on the other. Producers' capacity to maintain their position in the market is shown to be dependent, among other factors, on building more open, wide- reaching and eclectic network orderings which facilitate wide knowledge gathering and the incorporation of that knowledge into reflexive, flexible and innovative action. The thesis shows that in some rural and regional areas, the network organising power of space, over prolonged periods of relative social and spatial isolation, produce network structures that are marked by rich multiplex linkages and powerful coherent boundary processes, as networks become increasingly coextensive in social and physical space and boundary processes become conterminous. These structures restrict the ability of individual and collective actors to build the sorts of open network ordering that are needed to engage fully in the global market. The major impetus for opening up these tight local network structures in these areas is seen as coming from either external shock or from the presence in local networks of individuals whose different socialisation means that their network orderings extend beyond the local. Such individuals provide the weak ties that span boundary processes, link actors into new networks containing alternate knowledge, meaning and values and counteract some of the historical network organising power of space. This suggests that, despite technology, face-to-face interaction and the physical mobility of individuals between networks remain important factors in maintaining openness in local networks.

description: Objective: The primary objective of this study was to determine the agreement between a Miran SapphIRe infrared ambient analyzer, conventional passive dosimeter badges (badges), and thermal desorption tubes (TD tubes) during nitrous oxide (N2O) sampling in Indian Health Service (IHS) dental clinics.  Agreement of ± 15% between TD Tubes and the reference Miran SapphIRe could suggest the TD tubes as an alternative for future passive N2O sampling.

Methods: Passive samples and direct-reading measurements were taken in the breathing zone of dentists during procedures using N2O sedation. Twenty-four sample sets were collected, each consisting of one TWA Miran SapphIRe measurement, two badges, and three TD tubes. A repeated measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test was performed to identify statistically significant differences between the three sampling devices. The Bland-Altman method was used to investigate the specific level of agreement.

Results: All devices had significantly different N2O concentrations (p<.05). When plotted, badges had an upper Limit of Agreement (LOA) of 13 and lower LOA of 0.2. The TD tubes had upper LOA of 2.5 and lower LOA of 0.2.

Conclusion: Neither of the passive samplers met the pre-defined Level of Agreement (± 15%) acceptable to IHS. However, TD tubes may be a better alternative to the conventional passive dosimeter badge, as they displayed closer agreement to the Miran SapphIRe.

title: A Comprehensive Treatment Program for Abusive Parents: An Exploratory Study
Creators: name: Marvel, Marvin Kim
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1987

description: Estimates of the incidence of child abuse range from 200,000 to 500,000 (Light, 1973) to over one million children each year (O'Brien, 1980). Child abuse is a leading cause of childhood death and injury (Starr, 1979). Demographic studies (e.g., Steele & Pollock, 1968) suggest that parents who abuse their children were often abused or neglected themselves. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that many of the present victims of abuse will become abusing parents in the future unless the cycle is broken. The need for effective interventions to reduce this pervasive social problem is obvious.
Studies on pyridine : thiourea and substituted thiourea complexes of cobalt (II) arylcarboxylates

description: A number of new thiourea and substituted thiourea complexes of cobalt(II) carboxylates, Co(RCO₂)₂•L₂ (where RCO₂ is acetate or arylcarboxylate and L is thiourea, ethylenethiourea or N,N'-dimethylthiourea), have been prepared and characterized, mainly by spectral studies in the infrared, near-infrared and visible regions and by magnetic susceptibility studies over the temperature range 80 - 320 ⁰K. These studies have shown that, the molecular structures involve a pseudo-tetrahedral ligand environment about cobalt with two oxygen and two sulphur atoms forming the immediate environment about the metal (CoO₂S₂ chromophore). Differences in the solid state electronic spectra of different carboxylate complexes are not simply related to the nature of the carboxylate group or sulphur-ligand involved and are ascribed to solid state crystal packing effects which result in variations in the detailed geometry about the cobalt ions. The magnetic properties of these complexes obey Curie-Weiss law with magnetic moments in the range 4.33 - 4.46 B.M. and Weiss constants in the range -2 to -7 ⁰K. The data have been analyzed, assuming a zero-magnetic-field splitting of the ground state spin levels caused by ligand field asymmetry. Pyridine complexes of the general formula Co(RCO₂)₂ • py₂ (where RCO₂ is acetate, trifluoroacetate or arylcarboxylate) have been prepared and spectral and cryomagnetic studies show the complexes to be pseudo- octahedral with four oxygen atoms and two nitrogen atoms forming the immediate environment about cobalt (CoO₄N₂ chromophore). The complexes have been classified into two groups. One group, which includes the acetate, trifluoroacetate and two ortho-substituted benzoate complexes, exhibits relatively high magnetic moments (4.95 - 5.02 B.M.) and cryomagnetic and electronic spectral properties consistent with tetragonal structures. These complexes are considered to have structures involving bridging carboxylate groups and trans-coordinated pyridine molecules. The other group of complexes which includes the benzoate and two para-substituted benzoate complexes have much lower room-temperature magnetic moments (4.6 - 4.7 B.M.) and in general exhibits spectral and cryomagnetic properties suggestive of lower symmetry about cobalt. These complexes are considered to have structures involving cis-coordination of pyridine molecules. No obvious correlation between structural type and the nature of the carboxylate group was found. The stabilities of these complexes towards pyridine dissociation were, however, found to be related to the nature of the anion involved, decreasing with increasing base strength of the carboxylate ion.
Superpositional belief : sub-symbolic processing as a platform for a folk conception of mind

description: This thesis defends connectionism against the charge of propositional-attitude eliminativism. Recently a restricted class of connectionist models-those employing superpositional data-storage techniques-have been criticised for the support they lend to the elimination of the contentful states of mind recognised by folk psychology. In response, I argue that superpositional networks can ground a realistic construal of the central commitments of folk psychology. I begin by arguing that superpositional networks are fundamentally different from traditional cognitive models. Superpositional models, in contrast to traditional symbolic models, employ sub-symbolic processing. A system is sub-symbolic if the features responsible for the system's dynamics are at a lower level of organisation than the features that encode content within the system. This style of processing produces features-such as the acquisition of the initial representational economy-which are fundamentally incompatible with symbolic representation. It is precisely this style of processing, however, that has provoked the recent eliminative concerns. Folk psychological explanation necessarily involves the ascription of intentional mental states. As such, folk psychology is held hostage to a naturalistic account of representation. I argue that the critical task confronting any theory of representation proposed as a basis for the vindication of folk psychology is an explanation of the normative dimension of representations which does not jeopardise naturalism. I argue that this can be successfully achieved by a teleosemantic account of content. Furthermore, I argue that the representational nature of superpositional networks can be legitimated according to teleosemantic principles. I conclude that, since teleosemantics is self-consciousness naturalistic, superpositional networks may offer a metaphysically respectable platform upon which to model intentional belief states. Indeed, I claim that superpositional networks can preserve the central intuitions of folk psychology.
