Overview

Qu'est-ce que la transidentité ? Comment accompagner au mieux un proche dans son coming out transgenre ? Comment éviter les maladresses et se départir des clichés sur le sujet ? Quelles sont les différentes étapes d'une transition ? Victoria Defraigne mobilise son expérience et ses qualités de vulgarisation pour expliquer les transidentités à tous ceux qui s'y connaissent peu voire pas du tout sur le sujet. Alternant témoignages et définitions accessibles, elle montre toute la diversité des parcours des personnes transgenres et donne des conseils concrets pour les accompagner, les soutenir et éviter les maladresses. Elle propose également un lexique, qui facilitera la compréhension et l'utilisation d'un vocabulaire pouvant paraître complexe au premier abord.
Methane on Uranus: The case for a compact CH4 cloud layer at low latitudes and a severe CH4 depletion at high-latitudes based on re-analysis of Voyager occultation measurements and STIS spectroscopy

description: Lindal et al. (1987, J. Geophys. Res. 92, 14987-15001) presented a range of temperature and CH4 profiles for Uranus that were consistent with 1986 Voyager radio occultation measurements. A localized refractivity slope variation near 1.2 bars was interpreted to be the result of a condensed CH4 cloud layer. However, models fit to near-IR spectra found particle concentrations in the 1.5-3 bar range (Sromovsky et al. 2006, Icarus 182, 577-593, Sromovsky and Fry 2008, Icarus 193, 211-229, Irwin et al. 2010, Icarus 208, 913-926), and a recent analysis of STIS spectra argued that aerosol particles formed diffusely distributed hazes, with no compact condensation layer (Karkoschka and Tomasko 2009, Icarus 202, 287-309). Trying to reconcile these results, we reanalyzed the occultation observations with a He volume mixing ratio reduced from 0.15 to 0.116, which is near the edge of the 0.033 range given by Conrath et al. (1987, J. Geophys. Res., 15003-10). This allowed us to obtain saturated CH4 mixing ratios within the putative cloud layer and to reach above-cloud and deep CH4 mixing ratios compatible with STIS spectral constraints. Using a 5-layer vertical aerosol model with two compact cloud layers in the 1-3 bar region, we find that the best fit pressure for the upper layer is virtually identical to the pressure range inferred from the occultation analysis for a methane mixing ratio near 4% at 5 deg S, arguing that Uranus does indeed have a compact methane cloud layer. While our cloud model can fit the latitudinal variations in spectra between 30 deg S and 20 deg N using the same temperature and CH4 profiles, closer to the pole, the model requires the introduction of an increasingly strong upper tropospheric depletion of CH4 at increased latitudes, in rough agreement with the trend identified by Karkoschka and Tomasko (2009, Icarus 202, 287-309).

title: Ligand, Anion, and Substituent Effects on Aliphatic Carbon-Carbon Bond Cleavage Reactions
Creators: name: Elsberg, Josiah G. D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2022

description: Oxidative aliphatic carbon-carbon (C-C) bond cleavage reactions are important for potential uses in synthesis and industry. To date, these reactions often require harsh chemicals or expensive metal catalysts. In efforts to find alternate methods, studies of oxidative bond cleavage reactions involving O2 and mediated by first row transition metals are of major interest.
The research outlined in this dissertation primarily focuses on the O2 reactivity of Cu(II) chlorodiketonate complexes and the effects of changing the supporting ligand, exogenous anions, and electronic effects on oxidative C-C bond cleavage. The results show that differences in the coordination sphere of the metal center has a major impact on the reactions. Changes such as these can promote or even alter the chemistry found within these systems. The outcomes from these studies include a better understanding of how tuning the features surrounding a metal center can lead to major changes in reactivity.

title: Fabrication and Testing of Catalyst-Infused Filament for 3D Printing of Ignition-Augmented Hybrid Rocket Fuels
Creators: name: Olsen, Kurt C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2022

description: This thesis describes and addresses the need for reliable ignition in small satellite hybrid propulsion systems using higher density oxidizers. It describes methods of creating custom 3D printing ABS plastic based filaments that contain small amounts of catalysts. These catalysts lead to a more reliable and energy-efficient ignition of a hybrid rocked propulsion system using catalyst-infused ABS and nitrous oxide and oxygen blend called Nytrox, commonly known as ”laughing gas.” The ”laughing gas” has a higher density and can therefore provide more ”miles per gallon” in a hybrid propulsion system on a small satellite when compared to gaseous oxygen (GOX). The ignition methods of hybrid rocket propulsion systems using Nytrox are compared and contrasted, and the ignition using catalyst-infused ABS as the fuel is tested. The data from these tests are presented and indicate an improvement in ignition energy and latency compared to pure ABS fuel.

description: A recently developed source of ultraviolet radiation, based on optical soliton propagation in a gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fiber, is applied here to angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Near-infrared femtosecond pulses of only few μJ energy generate vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation between 5.5 and 9 eV inside the gas-filled fiber. These pulses are used to measure the band structure of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 with a signal to noise ratio comparable to that obtained with high order harmonics from a gas jet. The two-order-of-magnitude gain in efficiency promises time-resolved ARPES measurements at repetition rates of hundreds of kHz or even MHz, with photon energies that cover the first Brillouin zone of most materials.

Overview

Renowned rock climber Beth Rodden’s inspiring memoir about overcoming devastating trauma, refusing to be held hostage by fear, and taking a leap toward healing. Beth Rodden is twenty years old and already an elite rock climber when a climbing excursion in Kyrgyzstan escalates into a nightmare. Beth, her boyfriend, and two other climbers are kidnapped by militant rebels. After six harrowing days of hiding, marching, and dodging gunfire, they miraculously escape captivity. But fear follows Beth home, and pushing past it becomes a fixation. She and her boyfriend, Tommy, train obsessively, achieving rock-climbing greatness and conquering each groundbreaking goal they set, all the while burying the terrors of Kyrgyzstan deep inside. Then comes an unexpected breaking point. For Beth, a woman at the top of her profession, the only way to overcome the anxiety that still controls her is to let go of the lifeline she’s been clinging to. Blowing up her successful and familiar life, Beth clears a path to a new one—a healthy new normal beyond the anxieties of the past and the myopic pursuit of athletic perfection. Charting a powerful journey of ambition, hope, love, physical and emotional endurance, and the true fulfilment of being oneself, A Light through the Cracks is Beth’s story of climbing up and through life.

description: Step-scan Fourier transform absorption difference time-resolved spectroscopy (S2FTIR ∆A TRS) has been used to collect mid-IR time-resolved infrared spectra of the transient electronic excited states of polypyridine transition metal complexes with 10 ns time resolution. The time-resolved data can be used for kinetic analysis or to generate “snapshots” of the lowest lying excited state. Shifts of vibrational bands in the excited state relative to the ground state can be used to infer significant details of the electronic structure of the excited state. The multiplex advantage of the FTIR technique allows a wide variety of vibrational bands to be analyzed for this purpose. In the example illustrated, the shift of the ester ν(CO) band in {Ru(bpy)[4,4′-(COOEt)2bpy]2}2

Reliability-Based Marginal Cost Pricing Problem Case with Both Demand Uncertainty and Travelers’ Perception Errors
Creators: name: Zhong, Shaopeng
name: Zhang, Lihui
name: Bushell, Max
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: Focusing on the first-best marginal cost pricing (MCP) in a stochastic network with both travel demand uncertainty and stochastic perception errors within the travelers’ route choice decision processes, this paper develops a perceived risk-based stochastic network marginal cost pricing (PRSN-MCP) model. Numerical examples based on an integrated method combining the moment analysis approach, the fitting distribution method, and the reliability measures are also provided to demonstrate the importance and properties of the proposed model. The main finding is that ignoring the effect of travel time reliability and travelers’ perception errors may significantly reduce the performance of the first-best MCP tolls, especially under high travelers’ confidence and network congestion levels. The analysis result could also enhance our understanding of (1) the effect of stochastic perception error (SPE) on the perceived travel time distribution and the components of road toll; (2) the effect of road toll on the actual travel time distribution and its reliability measures; (3) the effect of road toll on the total network travel time distribution and its statistics; and (4) the effect of travel demand level and the value of reliability (VoR) level on the components of road toll.
Functional Abdominal Pain in Childhood: Background Studies and Recent Research Trends
Creators: name: Levy, Rona L
name: van Tilburg, Miranda AL
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: The present review summarizes many of the major research trends investigated in the past five years regarding pediatric functional abdominal pain, and also summarizes the primary related findings from the authors’ research program. Specific areas discussed based on work within the authors’ group include familial illness patterns, genetics, traits, and mechanisms or processes related to abdominal pain. Topics covered from research published in the past five years include prevalence and cost, longitudinal follow-up, overlap with other disorders, etiology and mechanisms behind functional abdominal pain and treatment studies. It is hoped that findings from this work in abdominal pain will be interpreted as a framework for understanding the processes by which other pain phenomena and, more broadly, reactions to any physical state, can be developed and maintained in children. The present article concludes with recommendations for clinical practice and research.

title: Highly Variable Rainfall-Runoff Patterns Across Burned Mountainous Watersheds in the Colorado River Headwaters
Creators: name: Canham, Haley Anne
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2022

description: Wildfires can contribute to enhanced flooding, erosion, debris flows, sediment transport, and water quality changes that impact downstream infrastructure, water users, and aquatic habitat. With increasing wildfire risk in the western U.S. due to a changing climate, understanding post-wildfire rainfall-runoff patterns and controls is critical for continued water resources security. To improve understanding of post-wildfire rainfall-runoff patterns and controls, we developed a transparent, repeatable analysis framework to collect precipitation and streamflow data, identify paired rainfall-runoff events, and analyze these events to evaluate post-wildfire rainfall-runoff patterns and controls. To automate the rainfall-runoff event identification, the Rainfall-Runoff Event Detection and Identification (RREDI) algorithm was developed.
Flow and precipitation data were collected through a hydrologic monitoring network installed in the area burned by the Grizzly Creek Fire (Aug 2020) in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado, USA in five burned watersheds and two nearby unburned watersheds. The North American monsoon drove the precipitation regime during the monitoring period (summer 2021) resulting in highly localized, intense thunderstorm events. The observed rainfall-runoff patterns were highly variable, indicating a number of complex controls including precipitation variability, watershed and burn characteristics, seasonality, and prior storm events may influence rainfall-runoff response. This study investigates post-wildfire rainfall-runoff events across space and time scales to reveal hydrologic patterns and potential controls.
Incisional Hernia in a 12-mm Nonbladed Trocar Site Following Laparoscopic Nephrectomy

description: Non-bladed trocars and radially dilating systems are considered less traumatic to the abdominal wall because they do not incise the fascia itself. Since the fascia is not cut, it has believed that the fascia closes by itself. Consequently, several authors have suggested that closure of the abdominal fascia may be unnecessary when such non-bladed laparoscopic trocars are used. We report of a case in which a port site hernia was diagnosed at the site of a 12 mm non-bladed trocar 11 days after laparoscopic nephrectomy. Although it may be true that in many cases port site closure is unnecessary and does not result in bowel herniation, this case along with a prior report serve as important reminders that port site hernias are possible even in the use of non-bladed or radial dilating systems, and that there exists a number of potential variables that may predispose to herniation and consequently the ability to predict such events in individual patients remains uncertain. As such, we recommend closing 10 mm or larger port sites irrespective of trocar design.
title: Pedestrian Behavior at Signalized Intersections Throughout Utah
Creators: name: Boyer, Sadie
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2022

description: Pedestrians and vehicles interact with each other all over the world. Pedestrian-vehicle interactions are most likely to occur at intersections. One way to streamline these interactions and reduce the number of potential conflicts is by using traffic signals. Signalized intersections were developed to increase the overall safety and efficiency of movements involving motorists and, later, pedestrians (Clark, 2022). The number of signalized intersections is increasing across the country as vehicle volumes increase. This means that pedestrian-vehicle conflicts are also increasing. Pedestrian-vehicle conflicts can have serious, even fatal, consequences if not appropriately managed.
This study was a sponsored project by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) to determine what factors are influencing pedestrian behavior and violations at intersections across the state. A pedestrian violation is defined in this study as a pedestrian crossing when and/or where there is opposing traffic with right-of-way and/or crossing in a location outside of a designated crosswalk. Both types of violations can create more opportunities for pedestrian-vehicle interactions.
Pedestrian behavior was classified into crossing where pedestrians should not be and crossing when pedestrians should not be. These behaviors are dangerous and can create opportunities for pedestrian-vehicle conflicts.
Different types of statistical analyses were done to determine factors which increase or decrease the number of pedestrian violations. Factors found to be significant across all types of violations included: total precipitation, 4-way intersections, pedestrian pushbuttons, crossing distance, and crossing time. An increase in theses variables predicted an increase in the rate of pedestrian violations. Factors noted in the literature, such as age, gender, and time of day, were also analyzed. Age and gender did not seem to have any significant influence on any violations except middle of the intersection crossings. Time of day factors, including peak hour and weekday vs. weekend, did not have any significant influence on pedestrian behavior.

title: Evaluation of Noninvasive Methods for Determining Pregnancy, Diet, Nutrition, and Stress Among Pronghorn Antelope: Implications for Population Monitoring
Creators: name: Bleke, Cole
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2022

description: This study was conducted to increase our understanding of the influence of adult female pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) physiology on fawn summer survival. Pronghorn are a valued big game animal in Idaho, but are particularly sensitive to capture; therefore, we designed a noninvasive fecal sampling study to measure pregnancy (progesterone and estrogen), diet, nutrition (fecal nitrogen and DAPA), and stress (cortisol), during metabolically-demanding female life history stages (late gestation, early lactation, and breeding season). We also compared survey results between ground and aerial methods within mountain valley landscapes.
Pregnancy determination, via progesterone, is possible for pronghorn, but sample collection should occur during late April for hormone measures to be different from nonpregnant females. Fresh fecal samples are required for accurate hormone concentrations, given high hormone degradation rates.
Pronghorn diets were comprised of a majority of forb species during each sampling period, but protein intake from forbs peaked during early lactation. Protein intake from agricultural crops such as alfalfa were lower than expected.
Nutrition and stress measures had varying relationships across sampling periods and these measures differed by year, subpopulation, and sampling period. Pronghorn appeared to shift between diets high in nitrogen or digestible energy depending upon the metabolic demands of different life history stages.
The factors influencing fawn summer survival varied by sampling period, but diet and nutritional measures were the top influence each time. Of that, adult female fecal nitrogen values collected during early lactation had the greatest influence on fawn summer survival. This diet quality influence likely relates to the milk energy output of the female and subsequent fawn growth rates. We recommend wildlife managers increase habitat quality (fecal nitrogen), by increasing protein available to pronghorn (forbs), to increase fawn summer survival.
For survey results, we found differences in abundances and age and sex composition ratios of pronghorn from ground and aerial survey methods. Each survey method presented biases of composition results such as sight ability differences, pronghorn behavioral responses, as well as the influence on relative greenness of landscape and potential influence on pronghorn distribution.
title: Hidden Mechanisms of Climate Impacts in Western Forests: Integrating Theory and Observation for Climate Adaptation
Creators: name: Germain, Sara J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2022

description: Fire, insects, and disease are necessary components of forest ecosystems. Yet, climate change is intensifying these tree stressors and creating new interactions that threaten forest survival. This dissertation combined field observations with statistical predictions of changing disturbances in western forests to identify 1) how conventional models may underestimate future forest loss, and 2) how positive relationships between trees may be exploited by managers to prevent forest loss.
In Chapter II, I tested whether increasingly extreme weather with climate change increases Pacific yew extinction risk. I found that conventional modeling methods underestimated local extinction risk because trees were adapted to a range in average conditions, but had limited tolerance of extreme drought.
In Chapter III, I predicted whether future climate change will alter the strength of competition between species (heterospecifics) versus within species (conspecifics). I found that heterospecific competition is more sensitive to drought than conspecific competition, leading to higher tree mortality during drought than is currently expected.
In Chapter IV, I looked at sugar pine tree rings to measure how pines respond to three centuries of fire exclusion, drought, fire, and a bark beetle outbreak. I found that fire suppression led to higher competitive stress, which decreased pines’ resilience to fire, and consequently, decreased pines’ survival during a subsequent bark beetle outbreak. Woody species diversity, however, was able to increase pine survival following fire and bark beetles by allowing higher pine growth and defenses.
In Chapter V, I tested whether beneficial relationships between trees and mutualistic fungi could help trees survive across regional differences in climate, environmental conditions, and disturbances. I found that woody species diversity increased large-diameter tree resistance to insects and disease, but only if those species shared a mycorrhizal network. Large trees comprising 17 common western species across three canonical forest types showed this pattern –– despite residing in different topographic positions and climatological contexts.
I identified how biodiversity can increase forest resistance and resilience to disturbances, but also found climate change to be weakening the processes responsible for maintaining biodiversity. Managers must take a more active approach to cultivating and preserving forest tree biodiversity to ensure forests are able to continue provisioning essential services, such as carbon storage, in the future. These four long-term studies of spatially explicit, cause-specific tree mortality provided useful insights into tree survival and forest change that will improve vegetation model accuracy and inform management of mature forests in western North America.

We show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists $C>1$ such that the trace of the simple random walk of length $(1+\varepsilon)n\ln{n}$ on the random graph $G\sim G(n,p)$ for $p>C\ln{n}/n$ is, with high probability, Hamiltonian and $Θ(\ln{n})$-connected. In the special case $p=1$ (i.e. when $G=K_n$), we show a hitting time result according to which, with high probability, exactly one step after the last vertex has been visited, the trace becomes Hamiltonian, and one step after the last vertex has been visited for the $k$'th time, the trace becomes $2k$-connected.

description: The programming of CIs is essential for good performance. However, no Good Clinical Practice guidelines exist. This paper reports on the results of an inventory of the current practice worldwide. A questionnaire was distributed to 47 CI centers. They follow 47600 recipients in 17 countries and 5 continents. The results were discussed during a debate. Sixty-two percent of the results were verified through individual interviews during the following months. Most centers (72%) participated in a cross-sectional study logging 5 consecutive fitting sessions in 5 different recipients. Data indicate that general practice starts with a single switch-on session, followed by three monthly sessions, three quarterly sessions, and then annual sessions, all containing one hour of programming and testing. The main focus lies on setting maximum and, to a lesser extent, minimum current levels per electrode. These levels are often determined on a few electrodes and then extrapolated. They are mainly based on subjective loudness perception by the CI user and, to a lesser extent, on pure tone and speech audiometry. Objective measures play a small role as indication of the global MAP profile. Other MAP parameters are rarely modified. Measurable targets are only defined for pure tone audiometry. Huge variation exists between centers on all aspects of the fitting practice.

description: A Magnetic Cluster Expansion (MCE) model for ternary face-centered cubic Fe-Ni-Cr alloys has been developed using DFT data spanning binary and ternary alloy configurations. Using this MCE model Hamiltonian, we perform Monte Carlo simulations and explore magnetic structures of alloys over the entire range of alloy compositions, considering both random and ordered alloy structures. In random alloys, the removal of magnetic collinearity constraint reduces the total magnetic moment but does not affect the predicted range of compositions where the alloys adopt low temperature ferromagnetic configurations. During alloying of ordered fcc Fe-Ni compounds with Cr, chromium atoms tend to replace nickel rather than iron atoms. Replacement of Ni by Cr in alloys with high iron content increases the Curie temperature of the alloys. This can be explained by strong antiferromagnetic Fe-Cr coupling, similar to that found in bcc Fe-Cr solutions, where the Curie temperature increase, predicted by simulations as a function of Cr concentration, is confirmed by experimental observations.

Overview

Prenez des gentils, des méchants, un ou deux princes charmants, mélangez, inversez tous les rôles et vous obtiendrez un conte de fée revisité, drôle, rythmé, qui vous rendra heureux pour toujours ! Dans un village isolé, tous les quatre ans, deux adolescents, l'un bon, l'autre mauvais, sont kidnappés. Cette année, Sophie et Agatha, officiellement meilleures amies, sont choisies. Elles deviendront - comme tous les autres enfants disparus - élèves à L'École du Bien et du Mal. Avec un peu de chance, elles apparaîtront dans le prochain conte de fée, comme les très célèbres Cendrillon, Raiponce et Blanche-Neige ! Pantoufles de verre aux pieds et chevelure blonde soyeuse, Sophie est sûre de devenir princesse. Renfermée sur elle-même, constamment de mauvaise humeur, Agatha, elle, se destine au rôle de sorcière. Mais à leur arrivée, rien ne se passe comme prévu... Sophie la " gentille " est envoyée à l'école du Mal et Agatha la " teigne " à l'école du Bien. Entre deux cours de sorts maléfiques, Sophie s'efforce de prouver qu'elle fait partie des gentils, alors qu'Agatha, forcée de porter des robes et d'apprendre à parler aux animaux, ne rêve que d'une chose : rentrer chez elle. Et si cette erreur de casting révélait leur véritable nature ?
Photons with sub-Planckian Energy Cannot Efficiently Probe Space-Time Foam

description: Extra-galactic sources of photons have been used to constrain space-time quantum fluctuations in the Universe. In these proposals, the fundamental "fuzziness" of distance caused by space-time quantum fluctuations has been directly identified with fluctuations in optical paths. Phase-front corrugations deduced from these optical-path fluctuations are then applied to light from extra-galactic point sources, and used to constrain various models of quantum gravity. However, when a photon propagates in three spatial dimensions, it does not follow a specific ray, but rather samples a finite, three-dimensional region around that ray --- thereby averaging over space-time quantum fluctuations all through that region. We use a simple, random-walk type model to demonstrate that, once the appropriate wave optics is applied, the averaging of neighboring space-time fluctuations will cause much less distortion to the phase front. In our model, the extra suppression factor due to diffraction is the wave length in units of the Planck length, which is at least $10^{29}$ for astronomical observations.

description: Relativistic energy density functionals have become a standard framework for nuclear structure studies of ground-state properties and collective excitations over the entire nuclide chart. We review recent developments in modeling nuclear weak-interaction processes: charge-exchange excitations and the role of isoscalar proton-neutron pairing, charged-current neutrino-nucleus reactions relevant for supernova evolution and neutrino detectors, and calculation of beta-decay rates for r-process nucleosynthesis.

description: In order to analyze the influence of methods to design antireflection coatings (ARCs) on reflectivity of broadband solar cells, we provide detailed analyses about the ARC coupled with a window layer and the refractive index dispersion effect of each layer. By multidimensional matrix data simulation, two methods were employed to measure the composite reflection of a Si/ZnS double-layer ARC within the spectral ranges of 300–870 nm (dual junction) and 300–1850 nm (triple junction) under AM1.5 solar radiation. A comparison study, between the results obtained from the commonly used weighted average reflectance method (WAR) and that from the introduced effective average reflectance method (EAR), shows that the optimization of ARC by EAR method is convenient and feasible.
title:  Il discorso irato: elementi e modelli dell’invettiva
Creators: name: Spila, Cristiano
Publisher: name: Roma TrE-Press

description: Il contributo si presenta come una introduzione generale ai lavori che seguono sull’invettiva nella letteratura italiana. La parte più cospicua è dedicata all’analisi delle forme storiche in cui si presenta l’invettiva nell’antichità, a partire dall’epos omerico fino al testo biblico e oltre, cioè ai modi attraverso cui un testo si trasfonde in un’invettiva col risultato di una produzione in un senso concreto di intenzione irosa o di polemica ideologica. Il discrimine passa tra l’affiorare istintivo, involontario, nella scrittura, di un materiale letterario sedimentato dalla tradizione e un uso intenzionale del modello, volutamente iroso. Tra le fonti letterarie di un genere così stratificato come l’invettiva, l’Iliade e la Bibbia hanno una funzione preminente, permeando il piano stilistico e offrendo un inesauribile repertorio di immagini e di temi.

Overview

James Allen est l'un des pères fondateurs du développement personnel. Pour lui la pensée mène à l'action et nous aide à réaliser nos rêves. Un homme ne peut parvenir à s'élever, à conquérir et à réussir qu'en élevant ses pensées. Un chef d'oeuvre ! "Tout ce qu'un homme réussit et tout ce qu'il échoue dépend directement de ses propres pensées". S'il y a un seul livre à lire de développement personnel, c'est celui de James Allen. La faiblesse et la force d'un homme, sa pureté et son impureté sont les siennes et non pas celles d'un autre. C'est lui-même qui en est responsable et personne d'autre, lui seul peut les transformer. Sa condition est également sienne de même que ses souffrances et ses joies viennent de lui. L'homme est ce qu'il pense. Il ne peut donc parvenir à s'élever, à conquérir et à réussir qu'en élevant ses pensées.
Environmental Modifications and Supports for Participation Among Adults Aging With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: A Scoping Review
Creators: name: Washington, Selena E.
name: Hollenbeck, Jesse M.
name: Johnson, Khalilah R.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: Importance: Adults aging with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) continue to face barriers to participation in meaningful occupation; moreover, the increased life expectancy of adults with IDD intensifies the need for age- and environment-specific support.

Objective: To map and categorize transdisciplinary literature on environmental modifications and supports for adults aging with IDD.

Data Sources: Studies published between January 1, 2000, and January 1, 2019, identified through PubMed and Scopus.

Study Selection and Data Collection: Eleven articles met the inclusion criteria and contained information specific to occupational participation based on environmental modification (e.g., physical space, technology, universal design, type of living setting), social supports (e.g., family members, caretakers, peer groups, health care professionals, policies, organizational infrastructure), or both and adults age ≥35 yr with IDD.

Findings: Eleven studies met the criteria for this scoping review. Thematic coding was used to examine the articles within one or more themes: definition of need, environmental risk and assessment, environmental setting, intervention and program planning, use of technology, and bureaucracy.

Conclusions and Relevance: This review highlights collective and individual outcomes in the areas of assessment, intervention, and advocacy. Further research is needed within the scope of occupational therapy and disability studies that examines environmental factors and participation outcomes in this population.

What This Article Adds: The authors define the interconnectedness of adults aging with IDD and environmental factors, identify barriers to participation, and guide occupational therapy practitioners’ logic on how to positively affect environmental change and supports through intervention.
