ENTERTAINMENT MEDIA’S INFLUENCE ON INDIVIDUALS’ TENDENCY TO BELIEVE MYTHS ABOUT OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DISORDER: THE INFLUENCES OF STIGMATIZED VERSUS TRIVIALIZED CONTENT
Creators: name: Yel, Eylul
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: There is no limit to the array of topics entertainment media reaches. Plots around mental health and mental illness are no exception to this. By taking into account individuals’ experience with mental illness through self and/or a loved one, media attitudes, and beliefs about mental health, this study explores the ramifications of inaccurate portrayals of OCD. A close attention is given to the differences between stigmatized and trivialized portrayals of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in the popular television series, Grey’s Anatomy, and how such portrayals impact individuals’ ability to recognize common myths about the condition. The study was a between subject randomized experiment. No statistically significant differences were found between the conditions. Results also indicate that participants’ assigned conditions did not have an impact on their likeliness to believe myths around OCD when controlled for participant experience with OCD and any mental illness in general.

description: For a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ and a smooth and proper formal scheme $\mathscr{X}$ over the ring of integers of a finite and totally ramified extension $K$ of $W(k)[1/p]$, we propose a cohomological construction of the Breuil-Kisin modules attached to the $p$-adic étale cohomology $H^i_{\mathrm{ét}}(\mathscr{X}_{\overline{K}},\mathbf{Z}_p)$. We then prove that our proposal works when $p>2$, $i < p-1$, and the crystalline cohomology of the special fiber of $\mathscr{X}$ is torsion-free in degrees $i$ and $i+1$.

description: Adaptive robust optimization problems are usually solved approximately by restricting the adaptive decisions to simple parametric decision rules. However, the corresponding approximation error can be substantial. In this paper we show that two-stage robust and distributionally robust linear programs can often be reformulated exactly as conic programs that scale polynomially with the problem dimensions. Specifically, when the ambiguity set constitutes a 2-Wasserstein ball centered at a discrete distribution, then the distributionally robust linear program is equivalent to a copositive program (if the problem has complete recourse) or can be approximated arbitrarily closely by a sequence of copositive programs (if the problem has sufficiently expensive recourse). These results directly extend to the classical robust setting and motivate strong tractable approximations of two-stage problems based on semidefinite approximations of the copositive cone. We also demonstrate that the two-stage distributionally robust optimization problem is equivalent to a tractable linear program when the ambiguity set constitutes a 1-Wasserstein ball centered at a discrete distribution and there are no support constraints.

description: We study the effects of heavy fields on 4D spacetimes with flat, de Sitter and anti-de Sitter asymptotics. At low energies, matter generates specific, calculable higher derivative corrections to the GR action which perturbatively alter the Schwarzschild-$(A)dS$ family of solutions. The effects of massive scalars, Dirac spinors and gauge fields are each considered. The six-derivative operators they produce, such as $\sim R^{3}$ terms, generate the leading corrections. The induced changes to horizon radii, Hawking temperatures and entropies are found. Modifications to the energy of large $AdS$ black holes are derived by imposing the first law. An explicit demonstration of the replica trick is provided, as it is used to derive black hole and cosmological horizon entropies. Considering entropy bounds, it's found that scalars and fermions increase the entropy one can store inside a region bounded by a sphere of fixed size, but vectors lead to a decrease, oddly. We also demonstrate, however, that many of the corrections fall below the resolving power of the effective field theory and are therefore untrustworthy. Defining properties of black holes, such as the horizon area and Hawking temperature, prove to be remarkably robust against higher derivative gravitational corrections.

description: We study the decays $B\to D^{(\ast)}τν_τ$ in light of the available data from BABAR, Belle and LHCb. We divide our analysis into two parts: in one part we fit the form-factors in these decays directly from the data without adding any additional new physics (NP) contributions and compare our fit results with those available from the decays $B\to D^{(\ast)}\ellν_{\ell}$. We find that the $q^2$-distributions of the form-factors associated with the pseudo-vector current, obtained from $B\to D^{(\ast)}τν_τ$ and $B\to D^{(\ast)}\ellν_{\ell}$ respectively, do not agree with each other, whereas the other form-factors are consistent with each other. In the next part of our analysis, we look for possible new effective operators of dimension 6 amongst new vector, scalar, and tensor-type that can best explain the current data in the decays $B\to D^{(\ast)}τν_τ$. We use the information-theoretic approaches, especially of `Second-order Akaike Information Criterion' (AIC$_c$) in the analysis of empirical data. Normality tests for the distribution of residuals are done after selecting the best possible scenarios, for cross-validation. We find that it is the contribution from the operator involving left or right-handed vector current that passes all the selection criteria defined for the best-fit scenario and can successfully accommodate all the available data set.

description: Members of various species engage in altruism—i.e. accepting personal costs to benefit others. Altruism belongs to a constellation of prosocial behaviors, such as cooperation and costly sanctioning, which facilitate increasingly sophisticated forms of social organization. In this preregistration, we propose an incentivized experiment to test for altruistic behavior among AI agents (text-davinci-003, text-curie-001, text-babbage-001, and text-ada-001) made publicly available by the private company OpenAI. Using real incentives for AI agents that take the form of tokens used to purchase their services, our study first aims to establish whether AI agents will maximize their own payoffs in a series of individual decision tasks. Then, after testing for AI agents’ capacity for self-interest in non-social decisions, we present the AI agent with the “dictator game” from experimental economics, thus testing whether the AI agent will share resources with another party. This receiving party, in our experiment, is either another AI agent, the human experimenter (TJ), or an anonymous human charity.

description: This research is conducted to assess the current level of project management maturity in Ethio-Telecom the case of Telecom Expansion Projects through assessing the ten PMBOK's project management knowledge areas and find out the least and highly matured knowledge areas. To achieve this purpose, the research first provided a review of the common PMM models upon which PM solutions model was selected for this study. Second, questionnaire was distributed among 53 Telecom Expansion Projects employee participated in the implementation of these projects and selected using simple random sampling from each role-based stratification. Apart from survey questionnaires, interview with project managers and document reviews were also conducted. Finally, the collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics by applying SPSS. The overall project management maturity of the company is at level 2.46 approximately 2 on a relative scale of 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest). The most mature knowledge areas are project procurement management, project risk management and Human resource knowledge areas approximately leveled at maturity level 3 and the least matured knowledge areas are the project time management and project cost management approximately leveled at maturity level 2. The findings suggests that basic project processes exist in the company but are not considered an organizational standard and management supports the implementation of projects management but understanding and involvement is not consistent / applied to all projects.

description: In this paper, we present two approximation algorithms for the directed multi-multiway cut and directed multicut problems. The so called region growing paradigm \cite{1} is modified and used for these two cut problems on directed graphs. By using this paradigm, we give for each problem an approximation algorithm such that both algorithms have the approximate factor $O(k)$ the same as the previous works done on these problems. However, the previous works need to solve $k$ linear programming, whereas our algorithms require only one linear programming. Therefore, our algorithms improve the running time of the previous algorithms.

Variationen zu Modellierungsaufgaben können dabei auch Ideen geben neue Modellierungsaufgaben zu „produzieren“. Aus herkömmlicher Aufgabe können Modellierungsaufgaben formuliert werden, z.B. durch Verallgemeinern (Weglassen von Bedingungen), Kontext ändern, interessant machen, Kritisieren, Variation variieren usw.. Aber es ist auch möglich aus einer Modellierungsaufgabe eine weitere Modellierungsaufgabe zu erstellen, z. B. durch Analogisieren, Umorientieren (z.B. aus anderem Standpunkt aus zu betrachten), Veränderung des Kontextes, Anschluss einer Frage, Aktualisieren usw.. Für diese und weitere Typen siehe auch Schupp, 2002. Die Variationen können für dieselbe Altersgruppe - z.B. durch Veränderung des Textes entsteht aus einer Schulbuchaufgabe eine Modellierungsaufgabe,- oder für eine andere Altersgruppe z.B. durch Variation der Komplexität, durch Veränderung des mathematischen Inhaltes erstellt werden. An zwei konkreten Beispielen wird gezeigt, wie diese Variationen aussehen können und wie die so erhaltenen Modellierungsaufgaben auch noch zu relevanten didaktischen Forschungen benützt werden können. Modellierungsaufgaben bedeuten Aufgaben, die mit dem Modellierungskreislauf (Blum und Leiβ, 2006) gelöst werden können.

Reducing the risk of onion bacterial diseases through irrigation and nitrogen fertility management

description: A comprehensive literature review indicates that managing onion bacterial diseases requires a holistic approach that integrates cultural management practices to address risk factors for infection and disease development. Late N fertilizer applications and available N in excess of plant requirements can make the plant more susceptible to bacterial diseases indirectly, by increasing the onion neck size, thus increasing time needed for the neck to dry or “cure” at the end of the season when the onion is most vulnerable to disease progression into the bulb. Moisture in the canopy is also a risk factor, and as such, overhead irrigation, ending irrigation too late in the season, or late-season rainfall can cause an increase in disease incidence by transferring bacterial inoculum through splashing water and by increasing the time needed for the plant to fully cure. Trials were conducted in the Columbia Basin of Washington State to assess the impact of irrigation and N management on onion bacterial disease incidence and severity, marketable yield, and bulb size distribution. Irrigating twice as frequently but for shorter time periods did not exacerbate onion bacterial diseases or affect yield under the conditions of this trial compared to longer, less frequent irrigation events. However, the timing of the final irrigation had a clear impact, as irrigating until 90% of the plants reached the “tops down” stage (after the final leaf emerges, when the neck naturally collapses) increased disease incidence after storage by 20.9% compared to ending irrigation earlier, at 10% tops down. Total available N rates in both 2020 (ranging from 217 kg N ha-1 to 396 kg N ha-1) and 2021 (ranging from 46 kg N ha-1 to 403 kg N ha-1) did not affect marketable yield or bacterial bulb rot incidence in either year, nor did the timing of the final N application, though elevated nitrate levels in the irrigation water, heat stress, and water stress may have limited the impact of N management. Nonetheless, adjusting N application rates to account for all N sources and managing irrigation carefully are recommended to minimize the risk of onion bacterial bulb rots.

Scope, time, cost and risk are some of the factors that challenges project performance, and even causes failure.The study assessed the core project constraints management practice in IS projects of Ethio-telecom, the researcher has used descriptive research and quantitative method. The data collection tools were questionnaires with a total of 38 structured questions. The sample size of the study was 30 individuals who were selected through purposive sampling and 25 (83%) of the questioners were fully filled and analyzed. Based on the finding the project teams have the awareness on the need and benefit of project management, standard project management processes all used in managing the project. Concerning the managements support to develop PM in the project shows a bit weakly supported. Also the result shows the project team usedthe standard project management processes and methodologiesin managing the project. With regard to project scope management the finding implies that relevant stakeholders were involved in scoping process, and the presence of formal process to prepare scope management plan are all practiced well. They were in poor practice of using standardized tool in the scope defining process,in preparingscope dictionary, and in scope monitoring and control process. Concerning project time managementthe project have approved time schedule. Even though there was worthless application of formal time management process, use of WBS in scheduling, identified activities sequenced in the schedule, estimated activity duration. Particularly the project found to be in poor practice on periodic update of project schedule. Relating to cost management the finding implies thatIS project was performing well in preparing budget for the project as well to allocate the prepared budget to work packages and resources. whereas all the rest of processes under taken in project cost management are practiced poorly ,particularly the use formal project cost management processes and procedures was in its lowest performance level than the rest of time management process .In relation to project risk management the it shows the project found in poor practice of project risk management .

description: Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of viral bronchiolitis and pneumonia worldwide. Pneumonia and bronchiolitis during RSV infection are caused by hyper-inflammation in the airway. One of the key factors involved in exaggerated lung inflammation during RSV infection is necroptotic lytic cell death of RSV infected immune cells like macrophages. Intracellular components released in the extracellular milieu due to lytic cell death acts as Damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) to exaggerate inflammation. During infection, RSV glycoproteins compete with host proteins to activate ER stress pathway as part of the Unfolded protein response (UPR). ER stress pathway is activated via three ER stress sensors, namely PERK, IRE1 and ATF6. Although RSV infection induce both necroptotic lytic cell death in macrophages, whether RSV utilizes ER stress pathways to induce lytic cell death is unknown. Our study revealed that RSV induces lytic cell death in macrophages by using ATF6 mediated ER stress pathway. RSV infection led to significant induction in ATF6 protein expression. Furthermore, RSV infection resulted in ATF6 activation in macrophages as evident from the detection of the transcriptionally active cleaved ATF6p50 form of ATF6 in RSV infected macrophages. Thus, our studies have demonstrated a positive role of ATF6 dependent ER stress pathway during RSV-mediated necroptotic lytic cell death of macrophages via ATF6 protein induction and activation in RSV infected macrophages.

description: We investigate the impact of baryonic physics on the subhalo population by analyzing the results of two recent hydrodynamical simulations (EAGLE and Illustris), which have very similar configuration, but a different model of baryonic physics. We concentrate on haloes with a mass between $10^{12.5}$ and $10^{14}M_{\odot}h^{-1}$ and redshift between 0.2 and 0.5, comparing with observational results and subhalo detections in early-type galaxy lenses. We compare the number and the spatial distribution of subhaloes in the fully hydro runs and in their dark matter only counterparts, focusing on the differences between the two simulations. We find that the presence of baryons reduces the number of subhaloes, especially at the low mass end ($\leq 10^{10}M_{\odot}h^{-1}$), by different amounts depending on the model. The variations in the subhalo mass function are strongly dependent on those in the halo mass function, which is shifted by the effect of stellar and AGN feedback. Finally, we search for analogues of the observed lenses (SLACS) in the simulations, selecting them in velocity dispersion and dynamical properties. We use the selected galaxies to quantify detection expectations based on the subhalo populations in the different simulations, calculating the detection probability and the predicted values for the projected dark matter fraction in subhaloes $f_{DM}$ and the slope of the mass function $α$. We compare these values with those derived from subhalo detections in observations and conclude that the dark-matter-only and hydro EAGLE runs are both compatible with observational results, while results from the hydro Illustris run do not lie within the errors.

description: Chronic heart failure (CHF) has recently been considered as an inflammatory disease. Enhanced production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) in CHF patients has been proved. To compensate deleterious effects of TNFα, the concentration of adenosine is increased in CHF. However, concurrent determination of serum TNFα and enzymatic activities of ADA and its ADA1 and ADA2 isoenzymes, as the main regulators of adenosine concentration, has not yet been carried out. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from 52 CHF patients and 55 healthy controls. Laboratory routine tests were performed, and after determining the concentration of TNFα, total ADA (tADA) as well as ADA1 and ADA2 isoenzyme activities were measured. Results: Mean concentration of TNFα increased over 2-fold in CHF patients (12.54± 11.69 pg/ml compared with 6.0± 6.58 pg/ml in controls). The highest level of TNFα was observed in patients with the final stage of the disease (NHYA-IV subgroup), according to the New York Heart Association classification. tADA activity was significantly lower in CHF patients compared with controls (19.29 ± 9.73 and 24.3 ± 6.01 U/L, respectively). ADA2 activity markedly decreased in CHF patients and showed a direct correlation with tADA (r = 0.641, P = 0001). In addition, the lowest levels of tADA and ADA2 activities were observed in patients from the 4th quartile of NYHA classification. Conclusion: Adenosine deaminase activity is reduced in CHF patients to give rise to the concentration of adenosine, thereby attenuating pathologic consequences of CHF. Therefore, it is concluded that ADA activity is of paramount importance in pathophysiology of heart failure and might be used for diagnostic purposes or treatment targets.

description: Chemistry plays an important role in the interstellar medium (ISM), regulating heating and cooling of the gas, and determining abundances of molecular species that trace gas properties in observations. Although solving the time-dependent equations is necessary for accurate abundances and temperature in the dynamic ISM, a full chemical network is too computationally expensive to incorporate in numerical simulations. In this paper, we propose a new simplified chemical network for hydrogen and carbon chemistry in the atomic and molecular ISM. We compare results from our chemical network in detail with results from a full photo-dissociation region (PDR) code, and also with the Nelson & Langer (1999) (NL99) network previously adopted in the simulation literature. We show that our chemical network gives similar results to the PDR code in the equilibrium abundances of all species over a wide range of densities, temperature, and metallicities, whereas the NL99 network shows significant disagreement. Applying our network in 1D models, we find that the $\mathrm{CO}$-dominated regime delimits the coldest gas and that the corresponding temperature tracks the cosmic ray ionization rate in molecular clouds. We provide a simple fit for the locus of $\mathrm{CO}$ dominated regions as a function of gas density and column. We also compare with observations of diffuse and translucent clouds. We find that the $\mathrm{CO}$, $\mathrm{CHx}$ and $\mathrm{OHx}$ abundances are consistent with equilibrium predictions for densities $n=100-1000~\mathrm{cm^{-3}}$, but the predicted equilibrium $\mathrm{C}$ abundance is higher than observations, signaling the potential importance of non-equilibrium/dynamical effects.

title: Empirische Erhebung von Vorstellungen zur Energie in der Elektrizitätslehre
Creators: name: Pilser, Anna
Year: 2023

description: Elektrizität und Energie sind zentrale Bestandteile unseres Lebens. Lernenden fällt es aber oft schwer, ein physikalisches Verständnis dafür zu entwickeln. Auch nach dem Elektrizitätslehreunterricht halten viele an unvollständigen, unzureichenden oder falschen Vorstellungen fest. Für das Thema Energie und insbesondere der Energieübertragung gibt es bisher noch wenig empirisch erforschtes Unterrichtsmaterial für die Sekundarstufe, weshalb im Rahmen des Dissertationsprojektes von Mag. Louisa Christine Winter ein neues Unterrichtskonzept entwickelt werden soll. Diese Masterarbeit soll einen kleinen Beitrag dazu leisten, indem existierende Vorstellungen und Konzepte mithilfe einer empirischen Studie untersucht und mit den theoretischen Grundlagen verglichen werden. Dazu wurden neun leitfadengestützte Interviews mit SchülerInnen der 9.-10. Schulstufe in Wien geführt. Die Auswertung ergab, dass alle bereits bekannten Rahmenkonzepte in den Gesprächen wiedergefunden werden konnten. Zudem ließen sich vier neue Kategorien manifestieren. SchülerInnen verfügen über verschiedenste Vorstellungen und Konzepte, die sie je nach Kontext und Situation heranziehen.
description: Electricity and energy are central components of our everyday lives. However, students often find it difficult to develop a physical understanding of them. Even after electricity lessons, many hold on to incomplete, insufficient or wrong ideas. So far, there has been little empirically researched teaching material for the topic of energy and especially energy transfer at secondary level, which is why a new teaching concept is to be developed as part of the dissertation project by Louisa Christine Winter. This Master's thesis is intended to make a small contribution to this by examining existing ideas and concepts with the help of an empirical study and comparing them with the theoretical foundations. For this purpose, nine semi-structured interviews were conducted with pupils of the 9th-10th grades in Vienna. The evaluation showed that all already known framework concepts could be found in the interviews. In addition, four new categories were manifested. Pupils have a wide variety of ideas and concepts that they draw on depending on the context and situation.
Evaluation Of The Electronic Health Record (EHR) System In Marie Stopes International Ethiopia (MSIE) Maternal And Child Health Centers

description: The use of EHRs lowers medical errors by providing healthcare workers with problem solving capabilities, enhanced health information flow, and decision support through prompt access to the medical literature and best practices in medicine. The advantage of implementing EHR is more intensified in facilities where there is high volume of patients, complex work flow, frequent emergency situation and involving multiple personnel. The existing few research on EHR are addressing problems of EHR implementation. But post-implementation evaluation of the system is minimal, especially in Ethiopia. The current study will evaluate The EHR implementation effectiveness in Marie stopes International Ethiopia's Maternal and Child health Centers. A cross sectional facility based study design with a formative evaluation approach is used to assess the availability, usefulness and user satisfaction level of the EHR system implemented at Gotera (Addis Ababa), Bahir Dar and Adama MCH centers. Data was collected using structured, self-administered questionnaire from 54 participants. The collected data was entered to SPSS version 20 and cleaned. Availability of computer with EHR system installed was 98.15% and 66.67% of the respondents received training on EHR system and from participants who received training 94.83 % of them found the training adequate. Usefulness of EHR system is assessed in six departments: Inpatient, Outpatient, Pharmacy, Laboratory, Reception cashiers and MCH managers. The minimum rate of use and usefulness was from Pharmacy department (48.33%).User satisfaction with usefulness of the system is 86.56%. The result of overall EHR implementation effectiveness was 85.31% which was rated as very good. Average score of availability, usefulness and satisfaction was rated as very good. The overall EHR implementation is effectiveness was also rated as Very good. Suggested improvements regarding training and EHR Implementation in Pharmacy department should be acted upon to ensure effective utilization of the system.

description: We study uncertainty principles for function classes on the torus. The classes are defined in terms of spectral subspaces of the energy or the momentum, respectively. In our main theorems, the support of the Fourier transform of the considered functions is allowed to be supported in a (finite number of) parallelepipeds. The estimates we obtain do not depend on the size of the torus and the position of the parallelepipeds, but only on their size and number, and the density and scale of the observability set. Our results are on the one hand closely related to unique continuation for linear combinations of eigenfunctions (aka spectral inequalities) which can be obtained by Carleman estimates, on the other hand to observability estimates for the time-dependent Schroedinger and for the heat equation, and finally to the Logvinenko & Sereda theorem. In fact, they are based on the methods developed by Kovrijkine to refine and generalize the results of Logvinenko & Sereda and Kacnel'son. Furthermore, relying on completely different techniques associated with the time-dependent Schroedinger equation, we prove a companion theorem where the energy of the considered functions is allowed to be in a spectral subspace of a Schroedinger operator.

description: Edubirdie's writing service statements offer clients some vague guarantees. Some of these guarantees are true for some users and the opposite for others. Therefore, they cannot be called warranties because they cannot be reproduced for all clients. One of the guarantees you find in edubirdie.com reviews is quality paper. We have found that this is not the case. Some reviews of edubirdie support this claim. However, some assignments done by writers on Edubirdie contain grammatical and spelling errors. This is not a guarantee, as the writer cannot maintain a high standard of writing for all clients. Another guarantee on Edubirdie Reviews Reddit is the presence of native speaker writers. Some of the writers are native English speakers. However, we have found that most writers, according to Edubirdie's review, either lie about their background or qualifications. Edubirdie also ensures that you can choose the writers you want. This statement is true, but it is based on how high a price you can bid for the writer. If you don't want to go through the bidding process, you can pay $9.99 to get the best writer. Another guarantee that Edubirdie boasts is that there is no plagiarism. However, there are still claims in individual reviews that their assignments have a high level of Edubirdie plagiarism. Nevertheless, we can state a low level of plagiarism on our part.
