Influence of Wasta within human resource practices in Lebanese universities
Creators: name: Kassab, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: CQUniversity
Year: 2017
Subjects: classificationCode: 350503
subject: Human resources management

description: The following PhD research discusses the influence that Wasta has on Human Resource (HR) practices in the Middle East, and in particular within universities in Lebanon. There is currently limited research in the Human Resource Management (HRM) area, as it applies to the Middle East. The region is a prosperous and dynamic area due to its shifting political and religious history, as well as the rich oil reserves for which the area is known; hence, further investigation of the processes of influence and related HR practices is imperative. This research project focuses on the use of the process of influence called Wasta, which is defined by Mohamed and Mohamed (2011) as the “intervention of a patron in favor of a client in an attempt to obtain privileges or resources through a third party” (p.412). This research thoroughly examines the implications of Wasta in a new Wasta-HR model that depicts this influential process in the HR practices of recruitment and selection, training and development, compensation and benefits, as well as career development. A triangulation method was used in the research methods, involving a survey distributed among 349 employees, observations taken from various campuses and interviews with 20 individuals in administrative and academic positions in a number of local universities in Lebanon. Social Network Analysis (SNA) was also used in order to show the relationships between various positions. This research project has shown that Wasta is used widely and affects HR practices, as well as the organizational culture, within universities. The new Wasta model and its attendant research contribute to new knowledge within the field of HRM in the Middle East, and provides a base on which further researchers will build. Hence, this research will support and give added value to the minimal research that is available on HR practices in Lebanon and the Middle East.

description: The massive even-parity non-Abelian gauge model in three space-time dimensions proposed by Jackiw and Pi is studied at the tree-level. The propagators are computed and the spectrum consistency is analyzed, besides, the symmetries of the model are collected and established through BRS invariance and Slavnov-Taylor identity. In the Landau gauge, thanks to the antighost equations and the Slavnov-Taylor identity, two rigid symmetries are identified by means of Ward identities. It is presented here a promising path for perturbatively quantization of the Jackiw-Pi model and a hint concerning its possible quantum scale invariance is also pointed out.

description: Structure and production of doubly charmed tetraquarks T_cc (cc ubar dbar) are studied from the viewpoint of color configurations. Based on the diquark correlation, the tetraquark T_cc with I(JP)=0(1+) is considered to be stable against strong decay. We discuss that the mixing probability of color antitriplet and sextet cc components in T_cc is suppressed by 1/m_c^2, so the two configurations are separately realized in the heavy quark limit. Utilizing the nonrelativistic QCD framework, we evaluate the production cross sections of T_cc in electron-positron collisions. The momentum dependence of the cross section of color antitriplet is found to be different from that of sextet, which can be used to discriminate the color structure of the T_cc states in experimental measurements.

description: The approaches to using new technologies available to schools, teachers and students, require adoption of learner and teacher practices different from traditional practice. The focus of this research concerns student perceptions about their online mathematics experiences as they apply to middle school youth (12-14 years old). Essentially, this research examines the dynamics of student online experiences and the relationships amongst themselves and with teachers during the mathematics lesson, utilising technology supported learning from a student perspective. In this respect it was deemed necessary that a research design has the ability to meet the challenges related to collecting data from students as well as accommodating the complexity of the research topic. The research used mixed methods methodology as a means of securing an in-depth understanding of the perception of online experiences by students during mathematics class. The research design used three online contexts, within two rounds of data collection. One round comprised two interactive contexts namely, mathematics blogs and RLOs and the other utilised the read-only digital copy of the textbook. Results from the data analysis identified seven constructs used by students to describe their online experiences. The prominent perception about student online experiences during mathematics class concerned the construct of usefulness. Results also revealed students’ influence of the online context used in the mathematics classroom. It was found the students were more positive about the use of a read-only textbook online than the interactive online experience. It was also found that students valued the presence of their teacher during class and considered where the teacher role was to be one of assistance and advocacy. The results from this research can inform curriculum design and teacher practice with regard to online learning in mathematics in middle schooling. Recommendations on teacher planning and use of student online experiences in the mathematics classroom and areas for further research are presented.
Topological Magnon Insulator in Insulating Ferromagnet

description: In the ferromagnetic insulator with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, we theoretically predict and numerically verify a topological magnon insulator, where the charge-free magnon is topologically protected to transport along the edge while it is insulating in the bulk. Within the bulk band gaps, edge states form a connected loop as a $4π$- or $8π$-period Möbius strip in the wave vector space. As a consequence, the chiral energy current traveling along the corresponding edge is topologically protected from defects or disorders. Using the nonequilibrium Green's function method, we demonstrate that the energy current carried by magnons with energy in the bulk gap localizes at edges and prefers to travel along one edge in only one direction at nonequilibrium steady state. Our prediction about topological magnon insulator could be observed at a wide energy range in the thin film of the insulating ferromagnet, such as Lu$_2$V$_2$O$_7$.

description: PHENIX has measured direct photons in p+p and Au+Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}}=200 GeV. The p+p measurement is in good agreement with pQCD expectations. The nuclear modification factor in Au+Au is found to be consistent with unity for all centralities, and is compared to theoretical models. The data are found in agreement with models that take into account initial state modifications, as well as with those that account also for final state modifications.

description: Multilayer graphene systems with a rhombohedral stacking order harbor nearly flat bands in their single-particle spectrum. We propose ansatz states to describe the surface-localized states of flat band electrons. The absence of kinetic dispersion near the fermi level leaves the interaction as a dominate mechanism to govern the low energy physics of a low density electron system. We build up an effective lattice model in two interacting low-energy bands, where the full terms of the Coulomb interaction, including those long-range and off-diagonal parts, have been considered. The interaction matrix coefficients in the many-body Hamiltonian model are directly calculated for a trilayer system using orthonormal Wannier basis. We then present a flat-band projection to yield an interaction-only lattice model for flat band electrons. We find that this limited model might energetically favor a ferromagnetic quantum crystal under certain conditions.

description: This thesis explores the beginning years of Woogaroo Lunatic Asylum, Queensland, 1865-1869. It examines what it was like for the people who lived and worked in this institution and the trajectory of the Asylum. During the period 1865 to 1869, the Asylum was subjected to four public Inquiries and these Inquiries provide the structure for this thesis and the lens through which the Asylum is explored. By examining a short period of time, this thesis captures the interaction between social, political and economic factors that characterised this period of colonial Queensland history and demonstrates their influence on the Asylum. While situating the Asylum within this broad frame, other more specific influences are also apparent and include particular personalities and the press, which had an impact on the trajectory of the Asylum, and the experiences of the patients and staff. This thesis demonstrates that patient experiences at the Asylum were largely negative and the Asylum from its inception was unsuitable, and further, its conditions would continue to deteriorate as the Government neglected its needs. Finally, this thesis concludes that the trajectory of the Asylum’s first five years was a consequence of a complex interplay between broad socio-political and economic factors as well as more specific influences of particular personalities and the press, all interacting with the many institutional layers of a new asylum staffed by inexperienced people.

The impact of stressors on the sleep of elite athletes
Creators: name: Lastella, Antonio
Publisher: name: CQUniversity
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 520107
subject: Sport and exercise psychology

description: In the realm of elite sport, athletes are often subject to a variety of stressors that negatively impact their sleep. Such stressors range from intensive training and competition phases through to coping with jet-lag and altitude ascent. This dissertation describes a series of studies designed to examine the impact that various stressors have upon the sleep/wake behaviour of elite athletes. The first study (Chapter 3) validated the use of wrist activity monitors against polysomnography (PSG), a technique considered the gold standard for objectively quantifying sleep and wakefulness in elite athletes. Analyses revealed that wrist activity monitors provide an accurate assessment of the sleep/wake behaviour of elite athletes. The findings from this study indicate that wrist activity monitors are suitable for monitoring sleep in elite athletes. However, if detailed information is required concerning the depth and quality of sleep, it is recommended that PSG is employed as a more precise assessment.

description: In this paper, a shrinkage estimator for the population mean is proposed under known quadratic loss functions with unknown covariance matrices. The new estimator is non-parametric in the sense that it does not assume a specific parametric distribution for the data and it does not require the prior information on the population covariance matrix. Analytical results on the improvement of the proposed shrinkage estimator are provided and some corresponding asymptotic properties are also derived. Finally, we demonstrate the practical improvement of the proposed method over existing methods through extensive simulation studies and real data analysis. Keywords: High-dimensional data; Shrinkage estimator; Large $p$ small $n$; $U$-statistic.

description: Although it has been notoriously difficult to pin down precisely what it is that makes life so distinctive and remarkable, there is general agreement that its informational aspect is one key property, perhaps the key property. The unique informational narrative of living systems suggests that life may be characterized by context-dependent causal influences, and in particular, that top-down (or downward) causation -- where higher-levels influence and constrain the dynamics of lower-levels in organizational hierarchies -- may be a major contributor to the hierarchal structure of living systems. Here we propose that the origin of life may correspond to a physical transition associated with a shift in causal structure, where information gains direct, and context-dependent causal efficacy over the matter it is instantiated in. Such a transition may be akin to more traditional physical transitions (e.g. thermodynamic phase transitions), with the crucial distinction that determining which phase (non-life or life) a given system is in requires dynamical information and therefore can only be inferred by identifying causal architecture. We discuss some potential novel research directions based on this hypothesis, including potential measures of such a transition that may be amenable to laboratory study, and how the proposed mechanism corresponds to the onset of the unique mode of (algorithmic) information processing characteristic of living systems.

description: "The audit process of the State Audit Office of Vietnam (SAV) has inherent limitations and weaknesses that need to be addressed in order to keep pace with the development of the SAV. This could be realized if a strategy to change the audit process of the SAV is conducted. The research aims to improve the SAV to meet international auditing standards of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), using the Australian Government audit process as a direct comparison in order to identify issues in the change management processes required for the SAV to introduce Australian Government audit processes and to propose a methodology to resolve these issues. The change management processes are thus the key focus of the research. The evaluative framework was based on the literature, identifying three major issues of concern. They are technology, costs and people. The research design is a combination of document review and semi-structured in-depth individual interview methods. The document review includes analysis of relevant auditing processes, standards, methods, procedures and reports, and policies; and review of change management theories, models and practices. The goal of the document review is to obtain an overall picture of the research topic that informed the in-depth interviews. Semi-structured in-depth individual interviews were selected as the major research methodology because it is able to provide a considerable amount of detailed data and a deeper understanding of the research problem. The research methodology involved the analysis of the interview transcripts using Thematic Content Analysis (TCA). This mutual relationship between the interviews and the document reviews was discussed further in the data synthesis and analysis. In the study, 30 individual interviews were conducted for two groups of stakeholders (auditors and managers of the SAV) at the headquarters of the SAV in Hanoi City, the capital of Vietnam. The research findings indicated agreement over previous attempts by the literature review. These findings suggested that the change management process may face various issues arising from personal barriers to the change, the SAV culture, application of technology to auditing, costs for the change, the SAV auditor human resource quality and training, and the SAV organizational and operational model. The proposed strategic framework to resolve these issues addressed removing personal barriers to the change, improving infrastructure, human resource, training and legal framework of the SAV, and implementing changes in the SAV culture. The research outcomes might be applied to the SAV. These outcomes will assist the SAV in developing an effective audit process complying with international auditing standards and principles in order to ensure transparency and effectiveness of public sector expenditure."--Abstract.
Teacher homework practices in Queensland state primary schools

Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 390304
subject: Primary education

description: Homework is a universal school practice. Most homework research has concerned itself with  student learning and achievement and time spent on homework;  parental involvement in homework that supports learning from homework; and  the development of student self-regulatory, independent learning skills. In Australia, each state and territory has an educational authority homework policy for schools. However, there is limited research that has explored homework policy influences on teacher perspectives about homework and teacher-in-action homework practices in the context of a homework policy-perspectives-practice interface. Teacher perspectives about homework were explored using focus groups and teacher-inaction teacher homework practices were explored using the stimulated recall (SR) method. Four inter-related findings emanated from this research, namely that:  teachers interpret state and school-based homework policy guidelines and implement them through the use of individualised teacher homework repertoires of practice;  teacher homework repertoires of practice respond to the influences of policy, teacher view, parental involvement in homework and student learning;  there are distinct differences in the orientation to the homework approach evidenced in the repertoire of homework practices between primary classroom teachers in the early years and middle years phases of learning; and  an analogous relationship exists between primary classroom teacher perspectives about homework and homework practices, and the teacher-in-action in situ homework practices used by classroom teachers. It was found that the use of SR methods to explore teacher-in-action practices was problematic and difficult to manage in the classroom setting. However, the results using this methodology confirmed that teacher perspectives were enacted into teacher-inaction practice. The results also revealed that teacher perspectives about the purpose for homework influenced the types of homework used and the ways in which primary classroom teachers implemented homework using idiosyncratic teacher homework practices. The results from this research have been used to develop a reflective frame for teacher homework practice. This frame can be used by educators, and in particular by classroom teachers to  raise awareness about teacher homework practice; and  stimulate professional discussions about homework and teacher homework practice.

description: We study models of hybrid inflation in the framework of supergravity with superconformal matter. F-term hybrid inflation is not viable since the inflaton acquires a large tachyonic mass. On the contrary, D-term hybrid inflation can successfully account for the amplitude of the primordial power spectrum. It is a two-field inflation model which, depending on parameters, yields values of the scalar spectral index down to n_s ~ 0.96. Generically, there is a tension between a small spectral index and the cosmic string bound albeit, within 2-sigma uncertainty, the current observational bounds can be simultaneously fulfilled.

description: Understanding the properties of Pop III stars is prerequisite to elucidating the nature of primeval galaxies, the chemical enrichment and reionization of the early IGM, and the origin of supermassive black holes. While the primordial IMF remains unknown, recent evidence from numerical simulations and stellar archaeology suggests that some Pop III stars may have had lower masses than previously thought, 15 - 50 \Ms in addition to 50 - 500 \Ms. The detection of Pop III supernovae by JWST, WFIRST or the TMT could directly probe the primordial IMF for the first time. We present numerical simulations of 15 - 40 \Ms Pop III core-collapse SNe done with the Los Alamos radiation hydrodynamics code RAGE. We find that they will be visible in the earliest galaxies out to z ~ 10 - 15, tracing their star formation rates and in some cases revealing their positions on the sky. Since the central engines of Pop III and solar-metallicity core-collapse SNe are quite similar, future detection of any Type II supernovae by next-generation NIR instruments will in general be limited to this epoch.

description: We present an analytical and numerical study of the two-dimensional capillary-driven thin film equation. In particular, we focus on the intermediate asymptotics of its solutions. Linearising the equation enables us to derive the associated Green's function and therefore obtain a complete set of solutions. Moreover, we show that the rescaled solution for any summable initial profile uniformly converges in time towards a universal self-similar attractor that is precisely the rescaled Green's function. Finally, a numerical study on compact-support initial profiles enables us to conjecture the extension of our results to the nonlinear equation.
The virtual conservatorium

subject: Music performance

description: The problem for this project is the solution to the question, 'How can a conservatorium in a geographically isolated area with a relatively small catchment area survive and thrive in the 2000's?' This project chronicles the story of a three year strategic plan that has taken on this challenge. In order to do this it has been appropriate to discuss global conditions that are the driving forces of economies and the education systems within them. In adittion we show how these 'macro-conditions' affect the Australian Unviersity system and especially conservatoria. Having contextualized the project, we then move to an exploration of the main facilitating conditions that provided an orrprtunity to diversity the Central Queensland Conservatorium of Music in ways that better fit the international and national pressures that beset university based conservatoria. The Virtual Conservatorium, we then argue, provides a workable alternative to current conservatorium practice and at the same time provides a cost effective, contemporary, technology friendly paradigm that ensures ongoing quality and delivery effectiveness.

Racializing International Student Discourse in the United States: Recommendations for Counseling Psychology and Narratives from Asian Indian International Students

Subjects: Counselling psychology
Higher education

description: International students are integral in U.S. higher education institutions, and research demonstrates that these students face a range of concerns, with race and racism being understudied. In this dissertation, I present two chapters highlighting the racialized experiences of international students of color. In the first theoretical chapter, I connected international student literature to tenets of Critical Race Theory. I ended with specific recommendations for the field of counseling psychology. In the second empirical chapter, I conducted a narrative inquiry and interviewed 6 Asian Indian international students about how they formed understandings of race and racism in the United States. Through using reflexive thematic analysis, four themes of antiessentialism and intersectionality, social construction of race, sources of racial construction, and impacts of racial construction were developed. Using these results, I provided insights into how international students from India may understand race and implications for clinical practice, higher education, and research.

description: Slow noise processes, with characteristic timescales ~1s, have been studied in planar superconducting resonators. A frequency locked loop is employed to track deviations of the resonator centre frequency with high precision and bandwidth. Comparative measurements are made in varying microwave drive, temperature and between bare resonators and those with an additional dielectric layer. All resonators are found to exhibit flicker frequency noise which increases with decreasing microwave drive. We also show that an increase in temperature results in a saturation of flicker noise in resonators with an additional dielectric layer, while bare resonators stop exhibiting flicker noise instead showing a random frequency walk process.

Nursing students' preparation for adversity: Exploring the curriculum as a source of learning that prepares nursing students to cope with workplace adversity

description: Nursing, like many other professions, is impacted negatively by the problem of adversity. It is widely documented that nurses experience stress and anxiety as a result of bullying, difficult working conditions and the accumulation of multiple stressors that deplete job satisfaction. Adversity amongst nursing students has not been widely explored, and it was hypothesised that with greater understanding of the unique experience of these students, that solutions could be generated that could enrich the curriculum. A study was designed to elicit stories of adversity from nursing students in order to understand what they anticipated might happen in the workplace and, uncover what they actually experienced. The study was undertaken at the University of the Sunshine Coast (USC), Australia, in an undergraduate Bachelor of Nursing Science 3-year programme. Critical social theory methodology, as developed by Antonio Gramsci, was chosen to illuminate how inequalities that nursing students experience are not always perpetuated consciously, but can be a failure to notice that injustice is taking place. When taking a critical social stance, educational solutions that address adversity can focus on awareness raising on the impact of culture and cultural norms on interpersonal and interprofessional relationships. By examining how discursive practices can be perpetuated, and resisted, the study sought to identify possibilities for change to build a more resilient workforce. Data were collected in three stages: individual interview groups (stage 1 and 2) included 7 nursing students from years 1-3 of the programme. Recruitment of nursing student interviewees was completed through email on the university intranet site. The focus group interview (stage 3) was composed of 5 academic staff. These participants were the researcher’s peers as they were involved in teaching into the undergraduate nursing programme at USC. Convenience sampling was used to recruit these academics for their role as peer educators.
Plasma Formation Dynamics in Intense Laser-Droplet Interaction

description: We study the ionization dynamics in intense laser-droplet interaction using three-dimensional, relativistic particle-in-cell simulations. Of particular interest is the laser intensity and frequency regime for which initially transparent, wavelength-sized targets are not homogeneously ionized. Instead, the charge distribution changes both in space and in time on a sub-cycle scale. One may call this the extreme nonlinear Mie-optics regime. We find that - despite the fact that the plasma created at the droplet surface is overdense - oscillating electric fields may penetrate into the droplet under a certain angle, ionize, and propagate in the just generated plasma. This effect can be attributed to the local field enhancements at the droplet surface predicted by standard Mie theory. The penetration of the fields into the droplet leads to the formation of a highly inhomogeneous charge density distribution in the droplet interior, concentrated mostly in the polarization plane. We present a self-similar, exponential fit of the fractional ionization degree which depends only on a dimensionless combination of electric field amplitude, droplet radius, and plasma frequency with only a weak dependence on the laser frequency in the overdense regime.

description: The study, titled: Public Relation and Image Management in the Banking Sector: A Study of Selected Banks in Cross River State, is an attempt towards establishing the image and strategies as adopted by the banking sector with particular reference to First bank, United bank for Africa, Ecobank and Fidelity bank in Calabar metropolis have yielded the desired goals and objectives. It further investigated how the images of the banks can be effectively managed via public relations efforts. Organizational Image Management theory was adopted. The method adopted in the study was survey. The research findings revealed that, the selected banks in Calabar metropolis despite tough competitions in the banking industry are able to surmount image problems, especially with its adoption of modern system of service delivery. From its field survey, the study came up with a number of fundamental findings on the issue of image management. The study concluded that the banks have consequently increased the customers’ patronage. It recommends that more packages should be introduced in the banks to enhance further productivity. Also, the existing facilities such as the credit facilities, customers oriented services, among others should be enhanced and sustained.
Effects of finite superconducting coherence lengths and of phase gradients in topological SN and SNS junctions and rings

description: We study the effect of a finite proximity superconducting (SC) coherence length in SN and SNS junctions consisting of a semiconducting topological insulating wire whose ends are connected to either one or two s-wave superconductors. We find that such systems behave exactly as SN and SNS junctions made from a single wire for which some regions are sitting on top of superconductors, the size of the topological SC region being determined by the SC coherence length. We also analyze the effect of a non-perfect transmission at the NS interface on the spatial extension of the Majorana fermions. Moreover, we study the effects of continuous phase gradients in both an open and closed (ring) SNS junction. We find that such phase gradients play an important role in the spatial localization of the Majorana fermions.
