description: IntroductionFew studies of adults question the validity of the claim that self-management reduces the use of health care services and, as a result, health care costs. The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between self-management and health care use in a population of adolescent and young adult recipients of North Carolina Medicaid with chronic health conditions, who received care in either the pediatric or adult clinic. Our secondary objective was to characterize the patterns of health care use among this same population.MethodsOne hundred and fifty adolescents or young adults aged 14 to 29 were recruited for this study. Participants completed a demographics questionnaire and the self-management subdomain of the University of North Carolina TRxANSITION Scale. Information on each participant’s emergency department and inpatient use was obtained by using the North Carolina Medicaid Provider Portal.ResultsThis cohort had a high level of emergency health care use; average lifetime use was 3.18 (standard deviation [SD], 5.58) emergency department visits, 2.02 (SD, 3.42) inpatient visits, and 12.5 (SD, 23.9 ) days as an inpatient. Age group (pediatric or adult), diagnosis, race/ethnicity, and sex were controlled for in all analyses. Results indicate that patients with a high rate of disease self-management had more emergency department visits and hospitalizations and a longer length of stay in the hospital than did those with a low rate. ConclusionIn a group of North Carolina Medicaid recipients with chronic conditions, better self-management is associated with more health care use. This is likely the result of many factors, including more interactions with health care professionals, greater ability to recognize the need for emergency medical attention, and the use of the emergency department for primary health care.

description: Owing to Lorentz invariance, the leading terms in the effective action describing the low-energy dynamics of flux tubes in a confining gauge theory are universal. Besides the terms corresponding to the Nambu-Goto action, Lorentz invariance also allows terms describing a "rigid string", proposed long ago by Kleinert and Polyakov as a model for confinement in a dual superconductor scenario. In this contribution we discuss some of the non-trivial properties of this type of string and evaluate analytically the corrections to the interquark potential induced by extrinsic curvature terms appearing in the rigid string action.

description: Cette recherche s’inscrit dans le prolongement des travaux effectués au sujet de l’utilisation de la musique en cours de langues-cultures étrangères. Nous nous sommes interrogés principalement sur le fait d’employer la chanson en tant que genre comme apport historique et/ou socioculturel en classe. Nous avons souhaité démontrer qu’au-delà de l’aspect ludique, la chanson est une source intarissable d’empreintes culturelles, permettant simultanément l’analyse de phénomènes sociétaux, d’évènements historiques et invoquant l’utilisation de la langue. Il est ainsi possible de traiter les éléments culturels (socio-culturels et historiques) dont elle regorge au même titre que des documents plus académiques. Associée à d’autres types de sources (articles, reportages, etc.), elle permet à l’élève de mettre en dialogue les différents apports de chacune d’entre elles et d’apprendre par lui.elle-même, car elle invite à l’exploration. Ainsi, la problématique a soulevé plusieurs questions, parmi lesquelles celles de l’engagement, de l’autonomie de l’élève et de l’amélioration de ses performances. Nous avons proposé une séquence de quatre périodes dans laquelle s’intègre la chanson sous diverses formes : l’audio, la vidéo, les paroles transcrites mais aussi la création de strophes, donnant à l’élève le rôle de messager.ère. Cette planification a été conçue dans une perspective actionnelle, afin que l’élève soit maître.sse de son apprentissage et actif.ve pendant ses cours. L’exemple du corrido mexicano en cours d’espagnol a été choisi pour cette étude. Ce genre musical provient de la romance espagnole et porte l’héritage de la transmission orale. Ayant apparu à l’époque de la révolution au Mexique, le corrido mexicano a évolué à travers les époques et peut ainsi représenter des contextes historiques ainsi que socio-culturels de diverses générations. Chanson populaire, il porte des messages connotés et engagés. Son destinataire ? Le public hispanophone à travers les frontières, la communauté latinoaméricaine qui souvent se reconnaîtra par ses thématiques et ses problématiques actuelles, toute personne qui est prête à l’entendre et à recevoir son message. Interprété dans tout le continent américain, le corrido mexicano demeure essentiellement mexicain, et profondément traditionnel. Cela fait aussi de lui un matériel idéal pour utiliser la chanson en cours de langues-cultures hispanophones et étudier sa dimension interculturelle.

description: A pilot study on the use and effectiveness of family protection orders (FPOs) was undertaken in Lae, Papua New Guinea (PNG) in 2018. The aim of the orders, introduced under the Family Protection Act (FPA) 2013, is to improve access to justice and the protection of and support for victims of domestic and family violence (DFV). This is the third and final In Brief summarising the findings from the pilot study, with the first two focusing on access to justice and safety. The pilot study suggests that more people are applying for orders and the process is timelier and more effective over almost four years. This In Brief considers the impact of the reform on the system and the factors that were identified as affecting the accessibility and effectiveness of FPOs. The recommendations from stakeholders and survivors who were interviewed in the study are also summarised.

description: IntroductionCardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and mortality rates are higher among African Americans than among people of other races/ethnicities. We aimed to understand how African American adults and adolescents conceptualize cardiovascular health and perceive related barriers and facilitators.MethodsThis qualitative study was conducted as formative research for a larger study, Heart Healthy Lenoir, which aimed to reduce cardiovascular disease disparities among African Americans in eastern North Carolina, part of the widely-known “stroke belt” that runs through the southeastern United States. Using photovoice, a community-based participatory research method, we conducted eight 90-minute photovoice sessions with 6 adults and 9 adolescents in Lenoir County, North Carolina. Topics for each discussion were selected by participants and reflected themes related to cardiovascular health promotion. All sessions were transcribed and coded using a data-driven, inductive approach.ResultsParticipants conceptualized cardiovascular health to have mental, spiritual, and social health dimensions. Given these broad domains, participants acknowledged many ecological barriers to cardiovascular health; however, they also emphasized the importance of personal responsibility. Facilitators for cardiovascular health included using social health (eg, family/community relationships) and spiritual health dimensions (eg, understanding one’s body and purpose) to improve health behaviors.ConclusionThe perspectives of African American adults and adolescents elicited through this formative research provided a strong foundation for Heart Healthy Lenoir’s ongoing engagement of community members in Lenoir County and development and implementation of its intervention to prevent cardiovascular disease.

description: The pilot study was conducted primarily from March to August 2018 in the urban centre of Lae in Papua New Guinea (PNG), with the support and advice of members of the Morobe Family and Sexual Violence Action Committee. Drawing on consultations and interviews with more than 50 stakeholders and interviews with 14 women survivors, the research aimed to determine the use and efficacy of family protection orders. The study drew on de-identified client data for a period of more than three years from Femili PNG (FPNG), a non-government organisation (NGO) that provides case management and support for survivors of family and sexual violence. In addition, the district court provided statistics on orders for 2017 and 2018, a sample of police prosecution files were reviewed and the research team observed proceedings at the district court.

The current version of the database (EDMOND 5.0) contains 144 751 orbits collected from 2001 to 2014. In our survey we used EDMOND database in order to identify existing and new meteor showers in the database. In the first step of the survey, using Dsh criterion we found groups around each meteor within similarity threshold. Mean parameters of the groups were calculated and compared using a new function based on geocentric parameters (solar longitude, right ascension, declination, and geocentric velocity). Similar groups were merged into final clusters (representing meteor showers), and compared with IAU Meteor Data Center list of meteor showers. This paper presents the results obtained by the proposed methodology.

description: L’enseignement des sciences expérimentales dans les gymnases (secondaire II dans le canton de Vaud en Suisse romande) s’accompagnent de séances de travaux pratiques (TP). Un des rôles de l’école étant de certifier les apprentissages des élèves, ceux acquis lors des séances de TP doivent être, comme pour tout autre enseignement, évalués règlementairement (Règlement des Gymnases, 2016). Cette évaluation sommative permet en théorie de certifier les apprentissages visés par le plan d’études et par les objectifs définis par les enseignants. Dans ce mémoire, nous récoltons, lors d’entretiens semi-dirigés, les pratiques de six enseignants de sciences expérimentales à propos des séances de TP qu’ils encadrent. Nous analysons ces pratiques afin de voir dans quelle mesure l’alignement curriculaire (Anderson, 2002) et l’alignement curriculaire élargi (Pasquini, 2019) sont assurés pour ce qui est de l’évaluation sommative des apprentissages abordés lors des TP. En résultats principaux, nous constatons une grande diversité des objectifs visés par les enseignants interrogés. Par ailleurs, si des tâches d’évaluation sommative variées sont utilisées, la rédaction d’un rapport d’expérience (plus ou moins guidé) en fait partie chez tous les enseignants interrogés. Aussi, les critères et les pondérations employées pour construire la note sont extrêmement variés, et ne mettent pas nécessairement l’accent sur les mêmes objectifs. Dans notre analyse, nous identifions que la tâche évaluative « rapport » permet de valider certains objectifs annoncés par les enseignants (objectifs en lien avec les savoirs théoriques, savoir communiquer son travail par écrit), mais d’autres objectifs principaux ne sont peu ou pas évalués (apprendre la démarche scientifique, et développer des compétences techniques et manuelles propre au laboratoire de science). Enfin, nous retenons de ces données des pistes pour tenter de faire évoluer nos pratiques vers une évaluation sommative qui permet de certifier les objectifs réellement visés, et qui s’inscrit comme un soutien aux apprentissages des élèves.

description: We report results of economic policy experiments carried out in the framework of the EURACE agent-based macroeconomic model featuring a distinct geographical dimension and heterogeneous workers with respect to skill types. Using a calibrated model able to replicate a range of stylized facts of goods and labor markets, it is examined in how far effects differ if policy measures aiming at an improvement of general skills are uniformly spread over all regions in the economy or focused in one particular region. We find that it depends on the level of spatial frictions on the labor market how the spatial distribution of policy measures affects the effects of the policy. Furthermore, we show that a reduction in spatial frictions does not necessarily improve the growth of output and household income.

description: Hercules is the prototype of the ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxies. To date, there are still no firm constraints on its total luminosity, due to the difficulty of disentangling Hercules bona-fide stars from the severe Galactic field contamination. In order to better constrain Hercules properties we aim at removing foreground and background contaminants in the galaxy field using the proper motions of the Milky Way stars and the colour-colour diagram. We have obtained images of Hercules in the rSloan, BBessel and Uspec bands with the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) and LBC-BIN mode capabilities. The rSloan new data-set combined with data from the LBT archive span a time baseline of about 5 yr, allowing us to measure for the first time proper motions of stars in the Hercules direction. The Uspec data along with existing LBT photometry allowed us to use colour-colour diagram to further remove the field contamination. Thanks to a highly-accurate procedure to derive the rSloan-filter geometric distortion solution for the LBC-red, we were able to measure stellar relative proper motions to a precision of better than 5 mas yr^-1 down to rSloan=22 mag and disentangle a significant fraction (\>90\%) of Milky Way contaminants. We ended up with a sample of 528 sources distributed over a large portion of the galaxy body (0.12 deg^2). Of these sources, 171 turned out to be background galaxies and additional foreground stars, from the analysis of the Uspec - BBessel vs. BBessel - rSloan colour-colour diagram. This leaves us with a sample of 357 likely members of the Hercules UFD. We compared the cleaned colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) with evolutionary models and synthetic CMDs, confirming the presence in Hercules of an old population (t=12\pm 2 Gyr), with a wide spread in metallicity (-3.3\

description: A pilot study was undertaken in Lae, the second-largest urban centre in PNG, over six months in 2018 to examine the uptake and efficacy of family protection orders (FPOs). With the support of the Morobe Family and Sexual Violence Action Committee (FSVAC) and assistance from a family and sexual violence case management centre, Femili PNG, the study involved consultations and interviews with more than 50 professional stakeholders (mainly in the legal, policing and welfare sectors) and interviews with 14 women survivors. The study drew on more than three years of de-identified client data from Femili PNG, district court statistics on orders in 2017 and for a five-month period in 2018, a sample of police prosecution files and observations at the district court and the police’s Family and Sexual Violence Unit. The results of the study are detailed in a report (Putt et al. 2019) and summarised in three In Briefs. Part 1 focuses on whether there are improvements in DFV victims’ access to justice through the introduction of protection orders. Part 2 examines whether the orders have contributed to victims’ being or feeling safer. Part 3 identifies the factors that were found to affect the accessibility and effectiveness of the orders.

description: Peer attributes other than smoking have received little attention in the research on adolescent smoking, even though the developmental literature suggests the importance of multiple dimensions of adolescent friendships and peer relations. Social network analysis was used to measure the structure of peer relations (i.e., indicators of having friends, friendship quality, and status among peers) and peer smoking (i.e., friend and school smoking). We used three-level hierarchical growth models to examine the contribution of each time varying peer variable to individual trajectories of smoking from age 11 to 17 while controlling for the other variables and we tested interactions between the peer structure and peer smoking variables. Data were collected over five waves of assessment from a longitudinal sample of 6,579 students in three school districts. Findings suggest a greater complexity in the peer context of smoking than previously recognized.

description: Dans ce travail, nous avons décidé de nous pencher sur l’évolution d’un jeune enseignant en musique dans le cadre de sa formation au secondaire II, avec l’optique de d’élaborer des outils pour accompagner la suite de ce développement dans la suite de sa carrière professionnelle. Il serait prétentieux en effet de penser au sortir de la formation de pourvoir progresser en ne s’appuyant que sur un travail individuel et empirique. Il semble important au contraire de procéder avec méthode, et de continuer à s’appuyer sur des apports théoriques pour analyser sa propre pratique. Ce travail étudie le cas d’une leçon de chant et d’une leçon d’Histoire de la musique. Il s’agit d’une recherche exploratoire de type qualitatif, à visée compréhensive. Nous proposons d’observer dans les deux leçons, quelques gestes d’enseignement, et de nous pencher plus particulièrement sur les interactions langagières, ainsi que les difficultés et obstacles que génèrent immanquablement les situations d’enseignement-apprentissage. Même dans une branche artistique, le langage reste le premier outil de communication pour transmettre des connaissances et cadrer les situations d’enseignement et d’apprentissage. Il est donc important de disposer d’outils permettant d’analyser les modalités par lesquelles l’enseignant interagit avec ses élèves, et de voir si celles-ci sont variées. Par ailleurs, si certains obstacles sont inévitables et peuvent devenir à terme, des leviers intéressants pour les apprentissages, d’autres pourraient être anticipés et contournés. Encore faut-il voir où ces obstacles prennent leur racines.

description: This work extends our Object Kinetic Monte Carlo model for neutron irradiation-induced nanostructure evolution in Fe-C alloys to consider higher irradiation temperatures. The previous study concentrated on irradiation temperatures < 370 K. Here we study the evolution of vacancy and self-interstitial atom (SIA) cluster populations at the operational temperature of light water reactors, by simulating specific reference irradiation experiments. Following our previous study, the effect of carbon on radiation defect evolution can be described in terms of formation of immobile complexes with vacancies, that in turn act as traps for SIA clusters. This dynamics is simulated using generic traps for SIA and vacancy clusters. The traps have a binding energy that depends on the size and type of the clusters and is also chosen on the basis of previously performed atomistic studies. The model had to be adapted to account for the existence of two kinds of SIA clusters, <111> and <100>, as observed in electron microscopy examinations of Fe alloys neutron irradiated at the temperatures of technological interest. The model, which is fully based on physical considerations and only uses a few parameters for calibration, is found to be capable of reproducing the experimental trends, thereby providing insight into the physical mechanisms of importance to determine the type of nanostructural evolution undergone by the material during irradiation.

The Multisite Violence Prevention Project: Impact of a Universal School-Based Violence Prevention Program on Social-Cognitive Outcomes

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: This study evaluated the impact of a universal school-based violence prevention program on social-cognitive factors associated with aggression and nonviolent behavior in early adolescence. The effects of the universal intervention were evaluated within the context of a design in which two cohorts of students at 37 schools from four sites (N=5,581) were randomized to four conditions: (a) a universal intervention that involved implementing a student curriculum and teacher training with sixth grade students and teachers; (b) a selective intervention in which a family intervention was implemented with a subset of sixth grade students exhibiting high levels of aggression and social influence; (c) a combined intervention condition; and (d) a no-intervention control condition. Short-term and long-term (i.e., 2-year post-intervention) universal intervention effects on social-cognitive factors targeted by the intervention varied as a function of students' pre-intervention level of risk. High-risk students benefited from the intervention in terms of decreases in beliefs and attitudes supporting aggression, and increases in self-efficacy, beliefs and attitudes supporting nonviolent behavior. Effects on low-risk students were in the opposite direction. The differential pattern of intervention effects for low- and high-risk students may account for the absence of main effects in many previous evaluations of universal interventions for middle school youth. These findings have important research and policy implications for efforts to develop effective violence prevention programs.

That way one can probe the expected alpha clusterization in the ground state, which leads to large initial triangularity in the shape of the fireball in the transverse plane. We show that the clusterization effect results in very characteristic behavior of the ratios of the cumulant moments as functions of the number of participant nucleons, both for the elliptic and triangular deformations. Thus the experimental event-by-event studies of harmonic flow in ultrarelativistic light-heavy collisions may offer a new window to look at the ground-state structure of light nuclei.

description: Since the promulgation of its Principles of Effectiveness in 1998, the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools of the U.S. Department of Education has promoted the use of evidence-based drug prevention programs in the nation’s schools. We report the results of a survey, conducted in 2005, of a nationally representative sample of 1,721 schools with middle school grades. Respondents comprised the staff member in the school identified as most knowledgeable about the school’s drug prevention programs. The total response rate was 78%. Respondents answered questions concerning which drug use prevention curricula they used, and, if they used more than one, which one they used the most frequently. Three federally-sponsored registries were used to specify which curricula were considered evidence-based. Findings from 2005 were then compared to earlier estimates based on a similar 1999 survey. We found that 42.6% of the nation’s schools with middle school grades were using an evidence-based curriculum, an increase of 8% from our 1999 estimate. The two most prevalent curricula in use, at 19% each, were Life Skills Training and Project ALERT. We note, however, that only 8% of Life Skills Training users and 9% of Project ALERT users reported using those curricula the most, and that only 23% of respondents overall reported that they used an evidence-based curriculum the most. More information is needed as to why over three-quarters of the nation’s schools with middle school grades continue to administer curricula that have not been identified as effective.

description: Little is known about the trajectories over time of classroom teachers’ fidelity to drug prevention curricula. Using the “Concerns-Based Adoption Model” (C-BAM) as a theoretical framework, we hypothesized that teachers’ fidelity would improve with repetition. Participants comprised 23 middle school teachers who videotaped their administration of three entire iterations of the All Stars curriculum. Investigators coded two key curriculum lessons, specifically assessing the proportion of activities of each lesson teachers attempted and whether they omitted, added, or changed prescribed content, or delivered it using new methods. Study findings provided only partial support for the C-BAM model. Considerable variability in teachers’ performance over time was noted, suggesting that their progression over time may be nonlinear and dynamic, and quite possibly a function of their classroom and school contexts. There was also evidence that, by their third iteration of All Stars, teachers tended to regress toward the baseline mean. That is, the implementation quality of those that started out with high levels of fidelity tended to degrade, while those that started out with very low fidelity to the curriculum tended to improve. Study findings suggest the need for ongoing training and technical assistance, as well as “just in time” messages delivered electronically; but it is also possible that some prevention curricula may impose unrealistic expectations or burdens on teachers’ abilities and classroom time.

N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills on Conic Space as Hologram of STU Topological Black Hole

description: We construct four-dimensional N=4 super-Yang-Mills theories on a conic sphere with various background R-symmetry gauge fields. We study free energy and supersymmetric Renyi entropy using heat kernel method as well as localization technique. We find that the universal contribution to the partition function in the free field limit is the same as that in the strong coupling limit, which implies that it may be protected by supersymmetry. Based on the fact that, the conic sphere can be conformally mapped to $S^1\times H^3$ and the R-symmetry background fields can be supported by the R-charges of black hole, we propose that the holographic dual of these theories are five-dimensional, supersymmetric STU topological black holes. We demonstrate perfect agreement between N=4 super-Yang-Mills theories in the planar limit and the STU topological black holes.

description: Two media-based interventions designed to reduce adolescent marijuana use ran concurrently from 2005 to 2009. Both interventions used similar message strategies, emphasizing marijuana’s inconsistency with personal aspirations and autonomy. “Be Under Your Own Influence” was a randomized community and school trial replicating and extending a successful earlier intervention of the same name (Slater et al. Health Education Research 21:157–167, 2006). “Above the Influence” is a continuing national television, radio, and print campaign sponsored by the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). This study assessed the simultaneous impact of the interventions in the 20 U.S. communities. Results indicate that earlier effects of the “Be Under Your Own Influence” intervention replicated only in part and that the most plausible explanation of the weaker effects is high exposure to the similar but more extensive ONDCP “Above the Influence” national campaign. Self-reported exposure to the ONDCP campaign predicted reduced marijuana use, and analyses partially support indirect effects of the two campaigns via aspirations and autonomy.
The Influence of Alcohol-Specific Communication on Adolescent Alcohol Use and Alcohol-Related Consequences

description: Alcohol-specific communication, a direct conversation between an adult and an adolescent regarding alcohol use, contains messages about alcohol relayed from the adult to the child. The current study examined the construct of alcohol-specific communication and the effect of messages on adolescent alcohol use and alcohol-related consequences. Parent-adolescent dyads were assessed biannually for 3 years (grades 9-11 at wave 6) to examine these relations in a large longitudinal study of adolescents initially in grades 6 through 8. An exploratory factor analysis identified two factors among alcohol-specific communication items, permissive messages and negative alcohol messages. Results showed previous level of adolescent alcohol use moderated the relation between permissive messages and alcohol use outcomes. Plotting of these interactions showed greater alcohol use and consequences with increasing permissive messages in adolescents with higher versus lower levels of previous alcohol use. Results suggest that parental messages regarding alcohol use may impact adolescent alcohol use beyond the effect of general parenting style and parental alcohol use.

description: We investigate the thermodynamics at the apparent horizon of the FRW universe in $f(R,T)$ theory under non-equilibrium description. The laws of thermodynamics have been discussed for two particular models of $f(R,T)$ theory. The first law of thermodynamics is expressed in the form of Clausius relation $T_hd\hat{S}_h=δ{Q}$, where $δ{Q}=-d\hat{E}+Wd\mathbb{V}+T_hd_{\jmath}\hat{S}$ is the energy flux across the horizon and $d_{\jmath}\hat{S}$ is the entropy production term. Furthermore, the conditions to preserve the generalized second law of thermodynamics are established with the constraints of positive temperature and attractive gravity. We have illustrated our results for some concrete models in this theory.

description: The No Child Left Behind Act mandates the implementation of evidence-based drug prevention curricula in the nation’s schools. The purpose of this paper is to estimate changes in the prevalence of such curricula from 2005 to 2008. We surveyed school staff in a nationally representative sample of schools with middle school grades. Using a web-based approach to data collection that we supplemented by telephone calls, we secured data from 1892 schools for a response rate of 78.2%. We estimate that the prevalence of evidence-based drug prevention curricula rose from 42.6% in 2005 to 46.9% in 2008, and that the prevalence of schools that used these curricula most frequently increased from 22.7% to 25.9% over this period. In addition, the proportion of schools using locally developed curricula also rose, from 17.6% to 28.1%. This study suggests the success of efforts by the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools to increase the prevalence of evidence-based curricula, as well as the need to continue to track the prevalence of these curricula in response to any reductions in the Office’s fiscal support for evidence-based drug prevention curricula in the nation’s schools.

description: This paper arose from a research project on family protection orders (FPOs) in Papua New Guinea (PNG), during which it became apparent that many matters being brought to the police and courts involved both domestic violence and family law issues. It also became clear that there was a lack of current information available regarding family law in PNG, with the only comprehensive textbook on the subject last updated over 25 years ago. This paper seeks to provide an overview of PNG’s family law architecture, explain how it is administered by PNG courts and discuss the interaction between family law and domestic violence matters. It concludes with some suggestions that could make the system easier to navigate for PNG citizens.

description: Materials of industrial interest often show a complex microstructure which directly influences their macroscopic material behavior. For simulations on the component scale, multi-scale methods may exploit this microstructural information. This work is devoted to a multi-scale approach for brittle materials. Based on a homogenization result for free discontinuity problems, we present FFT-based methods to compute the effective crack energy of heterogeneous materials with complex microstructures.
