Weed Control in Cover Crop No-Till Corn Systems
Creators: name: Petersen, Wyatt Steven
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Crop and pasture protection (incl. pests, diseases and weeds)

description: In the United States and Canada, weed interference in corn (Zea mays L.) costs farmers nearly $4 billion per year. Weed control has been achieved primarily through herbicides and tillage. As no-till corn acres have increased, dependence on herbicides has also increased. Herbicide-resistant weed infestations have pressured many growers into other weed management practices, such as adding winter cover crops into crop rotations. Field experiments were conducted in 2017 through 2018 and 2018 through 2019 at three locations in Indiana to determine residual herbicide efficacy applied at cereal rye termination and after corn planting in cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) and winter-fallow no-till corn. Weed biomass and density suppression was dependent on weed species and was influenced by cereal rye biomass at termination. Weed biomass was suppressed by up to 84% by cereal rye alone. Weed biomass reduction by a residual herbicide premix was similar in both cereal rye and non-cover crop treatments in most site-years, however cereal rye and the residual herbicide premix together resulted in decreased giant ragweed (Ambrosia trifida L.) and summer annual grass biomass compared to the residual herbicide premix applied alone in one site year. Late-season grass weed density was reduced by residual herbicides, but was unaffected by cover crop treatment. Late-season common cocklebur density and biomass increased in cereal rye treatments compared to non-cover crop treatments. Other field experiments were conducted at the same locations in 2017 through 2018 and 2018 through 2019 to determine the effect of cover crop species, termination timing, and chemical cover crop termination strategies on weed control and corn yield. Crimson cover (Trifolium incarnatum L.), cereal rye, and a cereal rye/crimson clover mix were terminated two weeks before, at, and two weeks after corn planting. All plots were terminated using glyphosate and atrazine, however others were also terminated with dicamba and acetochlor. The addition of acetochlor generally reduced early-season weed biomass or density, but not in cereal rye and cover crop mix treatments that were terminated at or after corn planting. Late-season summer annual grass biomass was reduced when cover crop biomass at termination was over 8000 kg ha-1. Late-season common cocklebur density in 2018 was 450% to 800% higher in cover crops containing cereal rye, compared to crimson clover treatments. Corn yield was reduced by 23% to 67% in cereal rye and cover crop mix treatments in two out of three site-years in 2018, however corn yield was not reduced by crimson clover in either year, nor by cereal rye or the cover crop mix in 2019.

description: Abstract: Job satisfaction among academic staff in western Ugandan universities positively correlates with the level of workplace equity, employees’ participation in staff committees, and welfare. Every workplace is expected to be conducive to all employees.  Employees in a secure and good workplace anticipate achieving high goals and objectives, for which an organisation is set and enshrined in its mission and vision. The article is reversed. The level of workplace equity is used to examine factors influencing workplace equity in universities, explore the impact of the workplace on employees' job satisfaction, and identify workplace equity strategies to enhance employee job satisfaction. The reviewed articles provided a standpoint view for the audience to understand the workplace, staff participation in staff academic staff, welfare and retention of employees. Herzberg's two-factor theory was significant in this review as descriptive surveys using both quantitative and qualitative methods were applied. The existing literature review identifies Herzberg's theory and practices of human resources management as having extensive knowledge for top managers in faculties, supervisors and policymakers to share and review at different levels of administration and management in Ugandan universities and beyond.

description: The restaurant industry is one of the largest in the United States, and employees within this industry deal with poor working conditions on a daily basis. Despite this, there has been a surprising dearth of research to understand the mental health needs of these workers. The aims of this study were to establish a prevalence of burnout and depression, and understand the relationships between these two outcomes with the constructs of bullying, perfectionism, and social support. To do so, restaurant workers (N=453) were recruited to complete an on-line survey. Results revealed a high prevalence of depressive symptoms and an overextended profile of burnout. Both bullying and perfectionism displayed significant positive relationships with depression and burnout, while social support demonstrated significant negative relationships with burnout and depression. When analyzed in a three-way interaction, social support failed to significantly moderate the effects of bullying and perfectionism on depression and burnout. Results indicate that depression and burnout are serious concerns among restaurant workers. Additionally, bullying and perfectionism are promising targets to consider in future research as mechanisms leading to depression and burnout among restaurant workers.

SCHEDULING AND CONTROL WITH MACHINE LEARNING IN MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS

Year: 2020
Subjects: Other engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Numerous optimization problems in production systems can be considered as decision-making processes that determine the best allocation of resources to tasks over time to optimize one or more objectives in concert with big data. Among the optimization problems, production scheduling and routing of robots for material handling are becoming more important due to their impacts on system performance. However, the development of efficient algorithms for scheduling or routing faces several challenges. While the scheduling and vehicle routing problems can be solved by mathematical models such as mixed-integer linear programming to find optimal solutions to smallsized problems, they are not applicable to larger problems due to the nature of NP-hard problems. Thus, further research on machine learning applications to those problems is a significant step towards increasing the possibilities and potentialities of field application. In order to create truly intelligent systems, new frameworks for scheduling and routing are proposed to utilize machine learning (ML) techniques. First, the dynamic single-machine scheduling problem for minimization of total weighted tardiness is addressed. In order to solve the problem more efficiently, a decisiontree-based approach called Generation of Rules Automatically with Feature construction and Treebased learning (GRAFT) is designed to extract dispatching rules from existing or good schedules. In addition to the single-machine scheduling problem, the flexible job-shop scheduling problem with release times for minimizing the total weighted tardiness is analyzed. As a ML-based solution approach, a random-forest-based approach called Random Forest for Obtaining Rules for Scheduling (RANFORS) is developed to solve the problem by generating dispatching rules automatically. Finally, an optimization problem for routing of autonomous robots for minimizing total tardiness of transportation requests is analyzed by decomposing it into three sub-problems. In order to solve the sub-problems, a comprehensive framework with consideration of conflicts between routes is proposed. Especially to the sub-problem for vehicle routing, a new local search algorithm called COntextual-Bandit-based Adaptive Local search with Tree-based regression (COBALT) that incorporates the contextual bandit into operator selection is developed. The findings from my research contribute to suggesting a guidance to practitioners for the applications of ML to scheduling and control problems, and ultimately to lead the implementation of smart factories.
Caregiver Adaptation Among Black and White Families of Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and the Comparison of the Two Racial Groups
Creators: name: Yu, Yue
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Clinical psychology

description: To date, only two studies, both using the same sample at two different time points, have quantitatively examined outcomes in Black caregivers of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study examined family adaptational outcomes in Black and White caregivers of individuals with ASD using the double ABCX model of family adaptation to examine the impacts of stressors, the A in the model (e.g., autism symptom severity, general life demands), resources/supports, the B in the model (e.g., social support), and individual coping/stress appraisal styles, the C in the model (e.g., cognitive appraisal, religious coping) on caregiver positive and negative adaptation outcomes, the X in the model, (e.g., caregiver strain, benefit finding, family quality of life). Black and White caregivers were compared on adaptation outcomes at the family, dyadic, and individual level, including both positively valenced (e.g., benefit finding) and negatively valenced outcomes (e.g., depression, caregiver strain). Participants were Black (N = 24) and White (N = 32) primary caregivers of individuals with ASD. Racial differences were found for both the general and racial-specific factors in the ABCX model. White and Black caregivers reported moderate and equal levels of caregiver strain. However, Black caregivers reported greater levels of anxiety and depression and lower levels of life satisfaction. When adjusting for potential ABC covariates, racial differences in outcomes were no longer significant. That is, racial differences in outcomes could be explained by differences in the proximal elements represented by the ABC variables of the model (e.g., passive-avoidance coping, religious coping). Black caregivers reported higher levels of pile-up of demands, formal social support, threat appraisal, passive-avoidance coping, and positive and negative religious coping than White caregivers. Different factors were related to caregiver strain in the two racial groups. Conscientiousness was a protective factor against caregiver strain for Black caregivers, whereas greater use of passive-avoidance coping and threat appraisal, higher levels of neuroticism and barriers to care, and lower levels of satisfaction with services, parenting self-efficacy, and formal social support were explanatory factors for increased caregiver strain among White caregivers. These results are helpful in informing interventions and support the cultural adaptation of care as provided to Black caregivers of individuals with ASD.

The Persistence-Resilience Trade-off in Unemployment: The Role of Labor and Product Market Institutions

Subjects: SECS-P/01 Economia politica

description: The “great recession” has affected labor markets in Euro-area countries in very different ways. This chapter documents two important aspects of their response: the impact effect of the recession on the rate of unemployment, and the persistence of high unemployment. We find that countries lie on a trade-off between “resilience” and “persistence”: countries where the rate of unemployment is less affected on impact by output shocks (resilience) typically show higher unemployment persistence. We investigate the role of labor and product market institutions, and find evidence that more protected markets are associated to more resilience at the expense of more persistence. This suggests that implementing front loaded “structural reforms” at times of a fiscal consolidation, as many Southern European countries did during the recent crisis, may foster the rise in unemployment and possibly undermine the political support for the reforms. When we estimate the contribution of product and labor market reforms to the rise of unemployment in Southern Europe, however, we find positive, but relatively small effects that are quickly reversed.

INTEGRATION OF FERROMAGNETIC METALS IN VERTICALLY ALIGNED NANOSTRUCTURES FOR SPINTRONICS

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020

description: Vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) thin films are a promising thin-film platform that allows the combination of a highly desired material with another complementary oxide. Traditionally, VANs have been limited to combining an oxide with another oxide which has shown a wide range of functionality, and, by adjusting the different growth parameters, it has led to the tuning of their physical properties. While VANs have already shown to be an effective platform with immense potential, further enhancement of physical properties can be performed by replacing one of the oxides with a metal forming metal-oxide VANs. In this dissertation, by the inclusion of the 3d transition metals, e.g., Fe and Co, into various oxide matrices, such as La0.5Sr0.5FeO3, BaZrO3, and BaTiO3, strong, highly anisotropic, ferromagnetic properties have been achieved. By varying the growth parameters, tunable physical properties, mainly coercivity and anisotropic ratio, have been demonstrated. Furthermore, in the case of Co-BaZrO3, a multi-layer stack has been successfully grown and demonstrated a tailorable magnetoresistance. Additionally, a novel system by combining Fe pillars into a BaTiO3 matrix has been demonstrated. This new system allows for the combination of the room temperature Fe ferromagnetic properties with the ferroelectric properties of BaTiO3, allowing for coupling between the two with coercivity tuning and tailorable ferromagnetic properties. Lastly, it has been shown a possible framework by adding additional metals into the existing metal-oxide VAN platform. By adding the third phase, another metal, it opens up a new avenue to induce additional functionality while creating a method to introduce coupling between the different metals and physical properties.

Accelerating the Throughput of Mass Spectrometry Analysis by Advanced Workflow and Instrumentation

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Analytical chemistry not elsewhere classified

description: The exploratory profiling and quantitative bioassays of lipids, small metabolites, and peptides have always been challenging tasks. The most popular instrument platform deployed to solve these problems is chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. However, it requires large amounts of instrument time, intensive labor, and frequent maintenance, and usually produces results with bias. Thus, the pace of exploratory research is one of poor efficacy and low throughput. The work in this dissertation provides two practical tactics to address these problems. The first solution is multiple reaction monitoring profiling (MRM-profiling), a new concept intended to shift the exploratory research from current identification-centered metabolomics and lipidomics to functional group screening by taking advantage of precursor ion scan and product ion scan. It is also demonstrated that MRM-profiling is capable of quantifying the relative amount of lipids within the same subclass. Besides, an application of the whole workflow to investigate the strain-level differences of bacteria is described. The results have zeroed in on several potential lipid biomarkers and corresponding MRM transitions. The second strategy is aimed to increase the throughput of targeted bioassays by conducting induced nanoelectrospray ionization (nESI) in batch mode. A novel prototype instrument named "Dip-and-Go" system is presented. Characterization of its ability to carry out reaction screening and bioassays exhibits the versatility of the system. The distinct electrophoretic cleaning mechanism contributes to the removal of salt during ionization, which assures the accuracy of measurement.
TEACHER LEADERS IN THE AGE OF GLOBALIZATION: PROMOTING GLOBAL COMPETENCE IN STUDENTS

Subjects: Educational administration, management and leadership

description: One goal for educators today is to prepare students to succeed in a globalized world. The connection between teachers’ experiences of student educational programs abroad and teachers’ perceived growth in their instructional abilities to prepare globally competent students served as the focal point of this study. The qualitative method of grounded theory was utilized, and focus groups and interviews were conducted. Teachers who previously led students during educational programs abroad volunteered to participate in this study. Following the creation of transcripts for the focus groups and interviews, the data were analyzed using the constant comparative method (Glasser, 1965), and participants confirmed the categorization of the data. Seven emergent themes were identified and included: (1) perspectives, (2) empathy, (3) global conditions and current events, (4) cultural differences, (5) intercultural communication, (6) classroom environment, and (7) intercultural lessons. From these themes, three assertions were gleaned: (1) Opportunities should be provided for teachers to reflect on their own perspectives and consider the perspectives of others; (2) Both local and global opportunities should be promoted to teachers to experience other cultures; and (3) Professional development sessions for teachers to explore global competency instruction should be offered. The seven themes support the continuation of teachers’ involvement in student study abroad programs, and the three assertions offer recommendations to equip principals with approaches for promoting teacher leadership and improving global competency instruction.

description: Safe deployment of deep neural networks in high-stake real-world applications requires theoretically sound uncertainty quantification. Conformal prediction (CP) is a principled framework for uncertainty quantification of deep models in the form of prediction set for classification tasks with a user-specified coverage (i.e., true class label is contained with high probability). This dissertation proposes a novel algorithm referred to as Neighborhood Conformal Prediction (NCP) to improve the efficiency of uncertainty quantification from CP for deep classifiers (i.e., reduce prediction set size). The key idea behind NCP is to use the learned representation of the neural network to identify k nearest-neighbors calibration examples for a given testing input and assign them importance weights proportional to their distance to create adaptive prediction sets. We theoretically show that if the learned data representation of the neural network satisfies some mild conditions, NCP will produce smaller prediction sets than traditional CP algorithms. Our comprehensive experiments on
description: CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and ImageNet datasets using diverse deep neural networks strongly demonstrate that NCP leads to significant reduction in prediction set size over prior CP methods.

description: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a single-session group music therapy songwriting session on grief processing in hospice clinicians. The study design was quasi-experimental. Participants were cluster randomized into a control group and a treatment group. The researcher led a 50-minute songwriting session focused on sharing and processing experiences of grief-related stress and burnout in hospice work. Grief processing was measured using a self-report survey for n=25. Overall differences between control and treatment groups were not found to be statistically significant. Significant differences were also not found in treatment score differences for type of hospice clinician or years of experience. For future research with hospice clinicians, a new measurement tool should be developed that is more specific to measuring an actual difference before and after a treatment. The current measurement tool is best used as an inventory for stress and grief levels that result from caregiving. Any new measurement tool should be kept under twenty questions. A single-session, though convenient for busy hospice clinicians, may not provide a complete treatment for grief and stress. Further research with hospice clinicians may require several treatment sessions to achieve a more complete grief processing experience.

With and Without Self-Control: The Aristotelian Character Types of Akrasia and Enkrateia
Creators: name: Bennett, Samuel C
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: History of philosophy

description: My dissertation analyzes the overlooked character types of akrasia (un-self-control) and enkrateia (self-control) in Aristotle’s ethics. In Chapter 1, I argue for the thesis that akrasia and enkrateia are character types, or settled psychological dispositions, definable in terms of unique un-self-controlled and self-controlled relations to choice-making. In Chapters 2 and 3, I argue for the thesis that agents do not express these character types only in temperance’s practical domain; rather, agents can express akrasia and enkrateia in any practical domain where one’s reason can conflict with one’s desire, so the character types have wide ranges of expression. More specifically, in Chapter 2, I develop a distinction between strict forms of the character types, which agents express in temperance’s practical domain, and loose forms of the character types, which agents express in other practical domains (e.g., in courage’s practical domain). I also argue that the strict and loose forms of each of the character types are united according to the ontological and terminological relation of metaphor, or inclusive resemblance. In Chapter 3, I draw two lines of psychological justification for the view that akrasia and enkrateia are wide-ranging character types and respond to some scholarly objections. In Chapter 4, I build an account of ethical practical syllogisms and differentiate them from non-ethical practical syllogisms; I argue that an agent expresses her character type through each feature of an ethical practical syllogism (i.e., not only through the enacted choice that concludes an ethical practical syllogism, but also through the propositions she exercises in it). Finally, in Chapter 5, I construct and analyze loose akratic and enkratic practical syllogisms in a variety of practical domains to show that akrasia and enkrateia are character types with wide ranges of expression.

THREE ESSAYS ON ENTREPRENEURS AND THE HETEROGENEITY IN ENTREPRENEURIAL DECISIONS
Creators: name: Yoon, Dalee

Year: 2022
Subjects: Entrepreneurship
Other commerce, management, tourism and services not elsewhere classified

description: This dissertation investigates how entrepreneurs make significant decisions during the progressive stages of business development and evaluates how the unique psychological traits of entrepreneurs influence these key decisions from initialization to exit. The first essay, which is based on current literature exploring organizational identification, theorizes that an entrepreneur’s exit decision depends upon the strength of his/her organizational identification with his/her specific business endeavors. This work suggests factors that reduce or enhance organizational identification (e.g., prior entrepreneurial experience, the number of co-founders, the status of the core founders, and the duration of the organization as a private firm) and summarizes how these factors affect an entrepreneur’s voluntary succession. Next, the second essay sheds light on the relationship between hybrid entrepreneurship and performance at the initial stage of entrepreneurial activities. Drawing upon the entrepreneurial threshold literature, this paper develops a theory of how hybrid entrepreneurship, regardless of the status of an entrepreneur’s transition to full-time employment, may affect the financing and commercialization of entrepreneurial activity. Finally, a third significant essay reflects on the topic of the new era with multiple financing sources (e.g., crowdfunding and peer-to-peer lending), examining how hybrid entrepreneurship influences an entrepreneur’s financing preference (i.e., financing goal amount, financing schedule, and staged financing decision). Starting from the atypical contextual background of hybrid entrepreneurs (i.e., low self-confidence and considerable resource limitation), this essay theorizes that hybrid entrepreneurs prefer to request smaller amounts of financing over either a longer term or with staged financing, compared to full-time entrepreneurs. Furthermore, in order to delve into the mechanisms behind the given association, the moderating effect of prior entrepreneurial success is also investigated.

A Motivational Framework for the Design and Evaluation of Undergraduate Mainstream Calculus
Creators: name: Wiles, Benjamin Christopher
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This study provides a framework to guide educators and researchers within departments of mathematics at institutions of higher education involved in reform efforts for undergraduate mainstream calculus. It does so by using motivational constructs from Self-Determination Theory to define and measure student-centeredness within both traditional and reformed calculus learning environments within a large-scale, quasi-experimental study. Motivational inventories assessing students’ perceived satisfaction of basic psychological needs and self-determined motivation were analyzed together with demographic variables, course outcomes, and prior math knowledge within traditional and reformed conditions in both Calculus I and Calculus II courses. Results include 1) positive correlates among students’ perceptions of satisfaction of basic psychological needs, intrinsic motivation, and achievement; 2) overall increased student perception of BPN-satisfaction in the reformed condition; and 3) directional variation in achievement and perception of BPN-satisfaction between conditions across subpopulations. The results demonstrate how student-centered calculus learning environments operate through motivational processes to improve academic outcomes and how learning environments may differentially affect demographic categories at institutions of higher education. Specifically, learning environments are not culturally or socially neutral and may, despite good intentions, be centered about privileged populations to the detriment of historically disenfranchised groups.
