Molecular dynamics simulation of heat transport across silicon-carbon nanotubes interface
Creators: name: Kim, Taejin
Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Heat -- Transmission

description: Thermal interfacial resistance across single wall nanotube (SWNT) and silicon interface is investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The effect of the interaction on thermal interfacial resistance is studied by applying bonded interaction as sum of bonded and non-bonded van der Waals interactions, and only non-bonded van der Waals interaction on the interface. For both cases, different temperature discontinuities (drops) at the interface are obtained. It is found that the thermal interfacial resistance of non-bonded interaction at the 3Å separation is 20 times greater than that of the bonded interaction. At 300K, the thermal interfacial resistance of the bonded interaction is 2.85×10-9m2K/W and that of non-bonded interaction is 5.65×10-8m2K/W. It is also found that the thermal interface resistance decreases as temperature increases up to room temperature. The low frequency radial phonon modes in CNT are excited due to the coupling with silicon phonon modes and contribute the heat transport across interface under the bonded interaction. In contrast, no change of radial phonon mode in non-bonded interaction is found. The excitation of the radial breath mode (RBM) and low frequency radial phonon modes increase with temperature and transport more heat energy across interface and results in lowering the thermal interfacial resistance at high temperature.
description: The propagation of heat pulses in zigzag and armchair double wall nanotubes (DWNTs) are also investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that the leading heat wave packets in zigzag (9,0)/(18,0) and armchair (5,5)/(10,10) DWNT move with the speed of longitudinal acoustic (LA) phonon modes. The intensities of the leading heat wave packets in outer and inner shells in DWNTs were found to be five to seven times larger than that of the corresponding single wall nanotubes (SWNT). The heat energy carried by the leading heat wave packets in zigzag DWNT was about four and five times more than those in armchair DWNT shells. Within the leading LA wavepacket, the strain in the inner shell of the DWNTs is stronger than strain in the outer shell and considerably larger than strain in the corresponding SWNTs. The regions with the largest strain coincide with the regions of high kinetic temperatures within the LA mode wave packets. The higher energy of the LA mode waves in DWNT shells compared to SWNT is attributed to the presence of higher strain fields in DWNT compared to individual SWNT. The higher strain in the inner shell of DWNT compared to the outer shell accounts for the three to five times higher kinetic energy of leading wave packets in inner shells compared to those in outer shells. The induced strain fields in zigzag DWNT are distributed over a wider region compared to armchair DWNT and the strain in inner and outer shells of zigzag DWNT are out phase by 180o

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: As cryptocurrencies gain popularity and credibility, marketplaces for cryptocurrencies are growing in importance. Understanding the dynamics of these markets can help to assess how viable the cryptocurrnency ecosystem is and how design choices affect market behavior. One existential threat to cryptocurrencies is dramatic fluctuations in traders' willingness to buy or sell. Using a novel experimental methodology, we conducted an online experiment to study how susceptible traders in these markets are to peer influence from trading behavior. We created bots that executed over one hundred thousand trades costing less than a penny each in 217 cryptocurrencies over the course of six months. We find that individual "buy" actions led to short-term increases in subsequent buy-side activity hundreds of times the size of our interventions. From a design perspective, we note that the design choices of the exchange we study may have promoted this and other peer influence effects, which highlights the potential social and economic impact of HCI in the design of digital institutions.

description: Le présent cahier de recherche s’intéresse aux formes et structures de la gouvernance du secteur culturel municipal. Il traite du cas très particulier de la Ville d’Ottawa qui occupe une place privilégiée, comparativement à d’autres municipalités de taille semblable au Canada, notamment en raison de sa forte concentration en ressources humaines, administratives, financières, matérielles et in extenso artistiques. L’étude de cas s’est concentrée sur le Groupe de Recherche sur la Culture à Ottawa (GRCO), une entité intersectorielle informelle créée sous l’initiative de la Ville d’Ottawa et qui vise à rassembler des acteurs gouvernementaux, privés, associatifs et universitaires afin de promouvoir une démarche commune de production d’indicateurs et de données en matière culturelle. En convoquant deux structures idéales-typiques de la gouvernance des politiques publiques, le présent texte soulève donc la contribution mais aussi les enjeux et les défis d’un tel collectif vis-à-vis de la gouvernance du secteur culturel ottavien. This research paper focuses on the forms and structures of governance in the municipal cultural sector. It emphases the very particular case of the City of Ottawa, which occupies a privileged position compared to other municipalities of similar size in Canada, particularly because of its high concentration of human, administrative, financial, material and artistic resources. The case study focuses on the Ottawa Cultural Research Group (OCGR), an informal intersectoral entity created at the initiative of the City of Ottawa and which intends to bring together government, private, associative and academic actors in order to promote a common approach to the production of indicators and data on cultural matters. By convening two ideal-typical structures of public policy governance, this paper raises the contribution but also the issues and challenges of such a collective action vis-à-vis the governance of the cultural sector in Ottawa.
High-Harmonic Generation in Mott Insulators

description: Using Floquet dynamical mean-field theory, we study the high-harmonic generation in the time-periodic steady states of wide-gap Mott insulators under AC driving. In the strong-field regime, the harmonic intensity exhibits multiple plateaus, whose cutoff energies $ε_{\rm cut} = U + mE_0$ scale with the Coulomb interaction $U$ and the maximum field strength $E_0$. In this regime, the created doublons and holons are localized because of the strong field and the $m$-th plateau originates from the recombination of $m$-th nearest-neighbor doublon-holon pairs. In the weak-field regime, there is only a single plateau in the intensity, which originates from the recombination of itinerant doublons and holons. Here, $ε_{\rm cut} = Δ_{\rm gap} + αE_0$, with $Δ_{\rm gap}$ the band gap and $α>1$. We demonstrate that the Mott insulator shows a stronger high-harmonic intensity than a semiconductor model with the same dispersion as the Mott insulator, even if the semiconductor bands are broadened by impurity scattering to mimic the incoherent scattering in the Mott insulator.

Delphi method

description: Background: Many advances in perioperative patient safety have been inspired by the aviation industry. One key protocol from aviation that has yet to be formally established in the operating room (OR) is the ‘sterile cockpit’ rule, which prohibits all non-essential behavior and actions during critical phases of a flight. It has been suggested that the application of a sterile cockpit rule to healthcare could have similar benefits for patient safety;1,2 yet, it remains unclear as to which phases of the surgical process are the most critical. Methods: After ethical approval, we will use a modified Delphi method to identify the critical moments of the surgical process according to OR team members across institutions, professions and specialties. Providers will be asked to identify the critical moments of surgery relevant to their professional perspective. At least 140 participants will be recruited, with iterative web-based surveys administered. Analysis and consensus will take place after each round. The stopping criterion will be either consensus on 80% of the survey items or no change in the mean score for any individual item between two consecutive rounds among each profession. Significance: Defining critical moments during surgery will allow future research to determine the relative importance of behavior and actions at each stage. This can potentially enhance the effectiveness of future interventions by enabling the most important moments to be targeted. As a result, interventions to reduce medical errors linked to poor surgical patient outcomes may be greatly enhanced.

Phylogeography and population genetics of Carex macrocephala, and the molecular evolution of Carex subgenus Vignea
Creators: name: King, Matthew George
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2007
Subjects: Cyperaceae -- Phylogeny -- Molecular aspects

description: Nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) has been used for more than a decade in species level phylogenetic analyses. While nrDNA can often be a powerful phylogenetic marker, intra-individual polymorphisms of the internal and external transcribed spacers (ITS, ETS) can lead to problems in their use for phylogeny reconstruction. Through comprehensive cloning we identified high levels of intra-individual polymorphisms and in many cases this led to the polyphyly of individuals of Car ex subgenus Vignea. We suggest that nrDNA contains multiple paralogs in many species and clades within Vignea which greatly complicates its use for phylogenetic inference and future studies in Carex need to take this into account. A drawback to phylogenetic based phylogeographic analyses is that they do not account for stochastic lineage sorting that occurs between gene divergence and lineage divergence. Gene divergence (D) begins prior to the split of the lineages (t), and the difference between D and t are not accounted for in phylogenetic analyses. In contrast, coalescent-based statistical methods have been developed which can account for the stochastic forces which drive population divergence, and can account for the lineage sorting that occurs prior to lineage divergence. We fit a molecular dataset, consisting of the rpL16 marker and 8 microsatellite loci, to the isolation with migration model as implemented in IMa to test the well-supported phylogenetic hypothesis of relationships within the Carex macrocephala species complex (Cyperaceae). By comparing the relative divergence time of the three main lineages within this group, Asian C. macrocephala, North American C. macrocephala, and C. kobomugi, we concluded the phylogenetic hypothesis is incorrect, and the divergence between these lineages occurred during the late Pleistocene epoch. Population genetic analyses of the rpL16 marker and 11 microsatellite loci suggest a high level of inbreeding, but also high levels of migration across the west coast of North America (NA). The standardized Gst value is low at 0.032, and AMOVA results show significant amount of variation across all grouping levels. A principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) suggests panmixia across the NA coast, however the high levels of inbreeding suggest this may be an artifact of metapopulation dynamics.
Generalised global symmetries in states with dynamical defects: the case of the transverse sound in field theory and holography

description: In this work, we show how states with conserved numbers of dynamical defects (strings, domain walls, etc.) can be understood as possessing generalised global symmetries even when the microscopic origins of these symmetries are unknown. Using this philosophy, we build an effective theory of a $2+1$-dimensional fluid state with two perpendicular sets of immersed elastic line defects. When the number of defects is independently conserved in each set, then the state possesses two one-form symmetries. Normally, such viscoelastic states are described as fluids coupled to Goldstone bosons associated with spontaneous breaking of translational symmetry caused by the underlying microscopic structure---the principle feature of which is a transverse sound mode. At the linear, non-dissipative level, we verify that our theory, based entirely on symmetry principles, is equivalent to a viscoelastic theory. We then build a simple holographic dual of such a state containing dynamical gravity and two two-form gauge fields, and use it to study its hydrodynamic and higher-energy spectral properties characterised by non-hydrodynamic, gapped modes. Based on the holographic analysis of transverse two-point functions, we study consistency between low-energy predictions of the bulk theory and the effective boundary theory. Various new features of the holographic dictionary are explained in theories with higher-form symmetries, such as the mixed-boundary-condition modification of the quasinormal mode prescription that depends on the running coupling of the boundary double-trace deformations. Furthermore, we examine details of low- and high-energy parts of the spectrum that depend on temperature, line defect densities and the renormalisation group scale.

description: This dissertation examines the impact that projected future (2050"s) global changes have on regional air quality in the U.S. (i.e., ozone and PM2.5 concentrations), where the future climate and emissions are based on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) A2 scenario. Specifically, we examine the impact of changes in climate, anthropogenic emissions, chemical boundary conditions, land-use (i.e., biogenic emissions), and the episodic long-range transport (LRT) of Asian emissions. The impact of global changes in climate and emissions, as well as the LRT of Asian emissions, were simulated using the Parallel Climate Model (PCM) and the MOZART-2 global chemical transport model. The PCM and MOZART-2 model results were downscaled to the regional scale using the MM5 meteorological model and the EPA Community Multi-scale Air Quality (CMAQ) photochemical grid model. U.S. anthropogenic emissions were projected to the future using the EPA EGAS economic growth model, while the biogenic emissions were projected using the MEGAN model with adjusted land-use from the Community Land Model. Model results show that changes in chemical boundary conditions have the most significant impact on summertime U.S. ozone concentrations (+5 ppbv), followed by changes in anthropogenic emissions (+3 ppbv), and climate changes ( -1.3 ppbv). Changes in July PM2.5 concentrations are primarily influenced by changes in anthropogenic emissions (+3 #g m-3), while changes in chemical boundary conditions have a minimal impact and only increase PM2.5 concentrations by +0.4 #g m-3. On average, climate change tends to reduce PM2.5 concentrations by roughly -0.9 #g m-3, with the largest decreases occurring in the south eastern U.S. ( -3 #g m-3) due to increased wet deposition. The episodic LRT of Asian emissions to the western U.S. is found to elevate surface ozone concentrations in the Pacific Northwest 1-2 ppbv above the average (~48 ppbv) during present-day events, and 1-3 ppbv above the average (~58 ppbv) in the future. In California, surface ozone increases slightly during wintertime LRT events in both the present-day and future cases, but ozone decrease during summertime events due to the meteorological conditions associated with LRT events
An Impact Evaluation of Duty Free Quota Free Market Access for the Least Developed Countries (1998-2010)
Creators: name: Kwon, Kyae Lim
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2017

description: Duty-Free and Quota-Free (DFQF) market access has been championed as a potential mechanism to reduce poverty through better trade opportunities for the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) since the turn of the millennium. Meanwhile, the empirical evidence to date has been mixed across different jurisdictions, with comparison made difficult due to different methodological assumptions and estimation strategies for the DFQF schemes of Japan, the European Union, Norway, New Zealand and Canada. Using a difference-in-differences and triple differences strategy, it finds that whether or not the DFQF scheme had a positive impact on export growth from the LDCs depends on the dimension of variation considered. Comparing treated products to control products for the LDCs, only the Canadian and Norwegian programmes were effective in inducing export growth. However, when an additional difference at the country level is considered, only the Japanese and the European programmes had positive and statistically significant impacts.

Les ONG et le mariage des jeunes filles au Bangladesh : Étude des stratégies en place pour contrer cette pratique culturelle
Creators: name: Régimbald, Caroline
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2017

description: Le mariage des jeunes filles est une pratique largement répandue au Bangladesh : une fille sur deux se marie avant d’avoir atteint l’âge adulte. Plusieurs ONG sont à pied d’oeuvre dans le pays afin d’éliminer cette pratique aux conséquences négatives pour les jeunes filles. Le mariage des jeunes filles s’inscrit dans une perspective d’abord culturelle. Les stratégies des ONG prennent la forme de projets et d’activités socio-politiques voulant changer les habitudes et les mentalités traditionnelles qui poussent les familles à voir les filles comme des mères et des épouses avant tout. L’hypothèse de contournement culturelle et la théorie du changement qui est au coeur des stratégies des ONG internationales et locales agissant sur le terrain seront plus amplement élaborées dans ce travail. Trois initiatives seront aussi présentées et analysées à partir d’un corpus rassemblant plusieurs rapports d’ONG : Girls Not Brides, le projet BALIKA de l’ONG Population Council et le projet Tipping Point de Care. Les principaux éléments qui sont mis en place par les ONG au pays gravitent autour de l’action gouvernementale, l’autonomisation et l’éducation des jeunes filles, ainsi que l’implication des autres membres de la communauté, comme les familles et les garçons. En visant ces éléments, les ONG espèrent enrayer cette pratique ancrée dans les moeurs et coutumes que les lois et conventions ne parviennent pas à changer. Il s’agira d’explorer et analyser les stratégies dont les résultats sont corrélés avec la baisse du taux de mariage des jeunes filles depuis quelques années, sans toutefois pouvoir tirer des conclusions sur l’efficacité de celles-ci à long terme.
Predicting student outcomes for Washington State middle schools using school counselor's and administrator's racial consciousness and organizational variables

description: There is disparity in academic performance, truancy, and discipline referrals for students of color as compared to White students within most of this nation's public schools. Literature offers two theories--cultural conflict and racial identity--to explain these disparities. This study examines data collected using the Oklahoma Racial Attitudes Scale (ORAS) from a randomly selected sample of 108 Washington State middle school counselors and assistant principals as well as their school's data as reported by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction. Counselors and assistant principals expressed attitudes of racial acceptance and recognized their privilege, but appeared to hold to traditional values. Variables associated with both cultural conflict and racial identity theory correlated with the measures of disproportionality in eighth grade reading achievement on the Washington Assessment of Student Learning (WASL) and unexcused absences; however, only the cultural conflict variables average years of teacher experience teacher/student ratio, were retained through the multiple regression analysis.
Super-luminous Type II supernovae powered by magnetars

description: Magnetar power is believed to be at the origin of numerous super-luminous supernovae (SNe) of Type Ic, arising from compact, hydrogen-deficient, Wolf-Rayet type stars. Here, we investigate the properties that magnetar power would have on standard-energy SNe associated with 15-20Msun blue or red supergiant (BSG/RSG) stars. We use a combination of Eulerian grey radiation-hydrodynamics and non-LTE steady-state radiative transfer to study their dynamical, photometric, and spectroscopic properties. Adopting magnetar fields of 1, 3.5, 7 x 10^14G and rotational energies of 0.4, 1, and 3 x 10^51erg, we produce bolometric light curves with a broad maximum covering 50-150d and a magnitude of 10^43-10^44erg/s. The spectra at maximum light are analogous to those of standard SNe II-P but bluer. Although the magnetar energy is channelled roughly in equal proportion between SN kinetic energy and SN luminosity, the latter may be boosted by a factor 10-100 compared to a standard SN II. This influence breaks the observed relation between brightness and expansion rate of standard Type II SNe. Magnetar energy injection also delays recombination and may even cause re-ionization, with a reversal in photospheric temperature and velocity. Depositing the magnetar energy in a narrow mass shell at the ejecta base leads to the formation of a dense shell at a few 1000km/s, which causes a light-curve bump at the end of the photospheric phase. Depositing this energy over a broad range of mass in the inner ejecta, to mimic the effect of multi-dimensional fluid instabilities, prevents the formation of a dense shell and produces an earlier-rising and smoother light curve. The magnetar influence on the SN radiation is generally not visible prior to 20-30d, during which one may discern a BSG from a RSG progenitor. We propose a magnetar model for the super-luminous Type II SN OGLE-SN14-073.

description: Graph algorithms are widely used in Department of Defense applications including intelligence analysis, autonomous systems, cyber intelligence and security, and logistics optimization. These analytics must execute at larger scales and higher rates to accommodate the growing velocity, volume, and variety of data sources. The implementations of these algorithms that achieve the highest levels of performance are complex and intimately tied to the underlying architecture. New and emerging computing architectures require new and different implementations of these well-known graph algorithms, yet it is increasingly expensive and difficult for developers to implement algorithms that fully leverage their capabilities. This project investigates approaches that will make high-performance graph analytics on new and emerging architectures more accessible to users. The project is researching the best practices, patterns, and abstractions that will enable the development of a software graph library that separates the concerns of expressing graph algorithms from the details of the underlying computing architectures. The approach started with a fundamental graph analytics function: the breadth-first search (BFS). This technical note compares different BFS algorithms for central and graphics processing units, examining the abstractions used and comparing the complexity of the implementations against the performance achieved.

description: Ce mémoire a pour objectif de décrire et comprendre les expériences des enfants et des adolescents en maison d’hébergement pour femmes victimes de violence au Québec et en Ontario francophone. Il s’inscrit dans un projet de recherche plus large, financé par le Conseil de recherches en sciences humaines (CRSH) du Canada, dont l’objectif premier était de documenter l’expérience et le point de vue d’enfants et d’adolescents québécois et franco-ontariens qui ont été exposés à la violence conjugale. Par le biais d’une approche méthodologique qualitative, la présente recherche est basée sur 25 entrevues individuelles semi-dirigées qui ont été réalisées auprès de 16 filles et de 9 garçons âgés de 7 à 18 ans, qui ont vécu un séjour dans une maison d’hébergement pour femmes victimes de violence. Le cadre théorique privilégié pour cette étude est celui de la nouvelle sociologie de l’enfance. De plus, le féminisme et l’intervention féministe sont des concepts incontournables dans cette recherche. Les résultats de ce mémoire démontrent l’importance et la pertinence de s’attarder aux voix des enfants et des adolescents exposés à la violence conjugale. Tout d’abord, les résultats de cette étude mettent en évidence l’importance du séjour en maison d’hébergement, qui peut être vu comme une forme d’intervention. Le fait d’être en sécurité dans un milieu stable, exempt de violence, jumelé à de l’intervention par le jeu permet aux enfants et aux adolescents d’exprimer leurs émotions et leurs inquiétudes. Cependant, ce passage en maison d’hébergement oblige les enfants et les adolescents à faire de nombreux sacrifices, sur le plan de leurs amitiés et de leur fréquentation scolaire. Par ailleurs, les participants ont identifié plusieurs éléments positifs de leur séjour, incluant la prise de conscience qu’ils partagent un vécu commun avec les autres jeunes hébergés, la possibilité d’être écoutés et supportés par les intervenantes et la possibilité de participer à des activités spéciales. En revanche, la présence de nombreuses règles constitue un irritant majeur pour les enfants et les adolescents. Toutefois, les participants font preuve de discernement dans leur critique des règles, qu’ils ne rejettent pas toutes d’emblée, mais qu’ils remettent en question lorsque les règles ne font pas de sens pour eux, comme l’interdiction de collations à certains moments, l’interdiction de recevoir des amis ou l’obligation d’aller se coucher à des heures qu’ils jugent trop tôt.

description: Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometers are the instruments of choice for analysis of biological ions produced through electrospray ionization. FTICR mass spectrometers offer highest possible resolution and greatest mass measurement accuracy of any current mass spectrometer. Though FTICR mass spectrometers are the highest performance mass spectrometers available, it is a relatively new technique and still not fully understood in terms of ion dynamics during image current detection. Thus, there are still many improvements to be made to FTICR instrumentation. In this research, we explore a novel way to improve ion current detection and develop instrumentation to overcome the shortcomings of the current ion injection methods.
description: We have developed a new technique called Electron Promoted Ion Coherence or EPIC to improve duration of the detected time-domain signals. The EPIC technique consists of injecting a high density beam of electrons through the center of the ICR cell during detection. De-phasing of ion packets during image current detection leads to loss of signal. In principle, the longer the signal is detected the greater the instrument performance. With EPIC, we have been able to detect image current for up to 70 seconds as well as obtain isotopic fine structure. Both experimental and theoretical studies were carried out to establish a theory on how EPIC improves image current detection. The basis of the enhancement is from the alteration of the radial electric fields with the application of the electron beam.
description: A novel FTICR mass spectrometer which utilizes a 3 Tesla magnet has been developed in our laboratory. There are number of novel features implemented in this instrument, such as a flared capillary inlet tube, electrodynamic ion funnel, Restrained Ion Population Transfer (RIPT) ion guide and a Trapping Ring Electrode Cell (TREC). The RIPT ion guide was developed to eliminate time-of-flight mass discrimination, as well as transfer ions of low kinetic energy to the ICR cell. TREC was designed to allow tuning of radial electric fields during the ICR experiment to improve overall performance.

description: Trainees can participate in organizational training programs voluntarily or mandatorily. To date, research has reported mixed evidence on the question whether voluntary or mandatory participation is associated with higher motivation and transfer of training. Grounded in the frameworks of participatory design, the notion of autonomy in basic psychological needs theory, and the 2 × 2 model of achievement goals, this meta‐analysis examined the relationship between goal orientations and transfer of training in contexts of voluntary and mandatory training participation with a sample of N = 4729 trainees in k = 29 studies. Goal orientations were conceptualized in four dimensions: mastery‐approach, mastery‐avoidance, performance‐approach, and performance‐avoidance. Results of the primary meta‐analysis indicated that mastery‐approach orientation had the most positive correlation with transfer of training, followed by performance‐approach, mastery‐avoidance and performance‐avoidance goal orientation. Meta‐analytic subgroup analysis examined the effects of two conditions for training participation: voluntary participation and mandatory participation. The findings indicated that training participation significantly moderated the correlation coefficients of mastery‐approach and performance‐avoidance goal orientation, with more positive estimates when training enrollment was voluntary. Contrary to expectations, the correlation coefficient between performance‐approach goal orientation and transfer of training was more positive when entry into training programs was obligatory and mandated. Implications for future research and the practice of training design and delivery are discussed.
Social Workers' Suicide Interventions: Listening to the Needs of Suicidal People

description: The massive financial investments in suicide prevention strategies encouraging people to consult healthcare professionals and discuss their suicidal ideations creates the assumption that current practices offer people opportunities to express suicidal thoughts. Studies show that many people with suicidal thoughts express the need to be heard, but they are often denied a safe space to express their feelings and thoughts. Social workers encounter and work with people with suicidal thoughts in a variety of settings, including in general and psychiatric hospitals, at universities, on school boards, in correctional institutions, through children’s aid services, family agency services, and in long-term care homes. My research aims to determine which intervention strategies social workers in Canada employ with suicidal people and what impacts these strategies have on suicidal people. My research identifies various social work interventions when dealing with people who express suicidal thoughts, analyzes the impacts of these interventions on suicidal people from a critical perspective, and provides recommendations for alternative interventions and practices with suicidal people. The methodology of my research is based on a critical review of literature on intervention strategies used with suicidal people by social workers in Canada and their impacts on suicidal people. This review indicates that interventions providing suicidal people with a safe space to express their suicidal thoughts and be listened to should be made a priority, while treating suicidal people coercively should be avoided. To conclude, recommendations are provided for various public institutions, public policies, and social awareness to improve intervention strategies with suicidal people.

description: An important goal of environmental health research is to assess the risk posed by mixtures of environmental exposures. Two popular classes of models for mixtures analyses are response-surface methods and exposure-index methods. Response-surface methods estimate high-dimensional surfaces and are thus highly flexible but difficult to interpret. In contrast, exposure-index methods decompose coefficients from a linear model into an overall mixture effect and individual index weights; these models yield easily interpretable effect estimates and efficient inferences when model assumptions hold, but, like most parsimonious models, incur bias when these assumptions do not hold. In this paper we propose a Bayesian multiple index model framework that combines the strengths of each, allowing for non-linear and non-additive relationships between exposure indices and a health outcome, while reducing the dimensionality of the exposure vector and estimating index weights with variable selection. This framework contains response-surface and exposure-index models as special cases, thereby unifying the two analysis strategies. This unification increases the range of models possible for analyzing environmental mixtures and health, allowing one to select an appropriate analysis from a spectrum of models varying in flexibility and interpretability. In an analysis of the association between telomere length and 18 organic pollutants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), the proposed approach fits the data as well as more complex response-surface methods and yields more interpretable results.

description: Despite the high impact of insider attacks, organizations struggle to implement effective insider threat programs. In addition to the mandate for all Department of Defense (DOD) and U.S. Government agencies to build such programs, approval of updates to the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual regarding insider threat defense require thousands of contractors to have insider threat programs as part of their security defense. Unfortunately, according to the Insider Threat Task Force of the Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA) Cyber Council, many such organizations have no insider threat program in place, and most of the organizations that do have serious deficiencies. This report describes a pattern-based approach to designing insider threat programs that could, if further developed, provide a more systematic, targeted way of improving insider threat defense.
