description: In early 2024, German farmers took to the streets to voice their discontent with the current situation in the agri-food system. The protests attracted considerable attention by the public, often portrayed to be undermined by far-right groups. In this study, we analyse whether reasons to protests are associated with farmers’ political orientation. We conducted an online survey with over 300 German farmers that elicited farmers’ reasons to protest with an open-ended question and their political orientation (left-right scale). We find that 63% of farmers self-categorize into centre-left (with the majority being centre) and 37% as being centre-right. Our analysis reveals distinct differences between political groups. Centre-left individuals frequently use terms like ‘government’ and ‘must’, whereas centre-right farmers favour words such as ‘state’, ‘green’, and ‘bad’. Additionally, while both groups are concerned about bureaucracy, centre-left farmers focus more on grievances related to future prospects and public goods, while centre-right farmers emphasize community issues and general protest motives. These findings have important implications with potential to improve the effectiveness of policy responses.

Antecedents and outcomes of parental socialization in response to different stressors among Chinese-heritage families
Creators: name: Ren, Huiguang
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2024

description: Across three papers, this dissertation project aimed to understand how parents of Chinese heritage socialize their children in stressful, threatening, or emotionally taxing situations, and the effects of these socialization practices on their children’s adjustment. The first paper examined mainland Chinese parents’ socialization that elicits children’s fear and anxiety to obtain children’s compliance (i.e., fear induction socialization) during a COVID-19 quarantine period. Parents’ higher frequencies of consuming COVID-19-related information contributed to their greater use of fear induction socialization, which in turn, contributed to children’s greater engagement in disease prevention practices during the quarantine but more depressive symptoms after the quarantine. Children’s trait anxiety exacerbated the association between parents’ fear induction socialization and children’s post-quarantine depressive symptoms.The second paper used a three-year longitudinal design to investigate precursors and outcomes of Chinese American parents’ awareness of discrimination socialization (AOD) during the anti-Asian racism pandemic. Parents with more COVID-19-related racial discrimination experiences used more AOD socialization in the next year, and this effect was attenuated by parents’ own levels of anxiety. Further, parents’ use of AOD socialization predicted their adolescents’ higher levels of ethnic identity exploration and anxiety one year later. Parents’ sense of competence in racial socialization strengthened the effects of their AOD socialization on adolescents’ ethnic identity exploration and buffered the effects of parents’ AOD socialization on adolescents’ anxiety. The third paper used an observational approach to examine moment-to-moment, transactional links between Chinese immigrant mothers’ two emotion socialization strategies (emotion coaching and emotion dismissing) and their children’s emotional expression. Children’s emotional expression elicited mothers’ more emotion coaching in the next moment, and this effect was attenuated by mothers’ behavioral acculturation to Chinese culture but strengthened by children’s temperamental sadness. Children’s emotional expression also elicited mothers’ more next-moment emotion dismissing, and this effect was strengthened by mothers’ psychological acculturation to Chinese culture but was attenuated by children’s temperamental sadness. Mothers’ emotion coaching and emotion dismissing both elicited more emotional expression in children in the next moment. The effect of mothers’ emotion coaching on children’s next-moment emotional expression was attenuated by mother-child physical proximity and warm emotional climate during their interaction.

description: Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) must be engineered to circumvent the efficiency limit imposed by the 3:1 ratio of triplet to singlet exciton formation following electron-hole capture. Here we show the spin nature of luminescent radicals such as TTM-3PCz allows direct energy harvesting from both singlet and triplet excitons through energy transfer, with subsequent rapid and efficient light emission from the doublet excitons. This is demonstrated with a model Thermally-Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF) organic semiconductor, 4CzIPN, where reverse intersystem crossing from triplets is characteristically slow (50% emission by 1 µs). The radical:TADF combination shows much faster emission via the doublet channel (80% emission by 100 ns) than the comparable TADF-only system, and sustains higher electroluminescent efficiency with increasing current density than a radical-only device. By unlocking energy transfer channels between singlet, triplet and doublet excitons, further technology opportunities are enabled for optoelectronics using organic radicals.

description: Originally intended to serve as a defense of graphic novels in and beyond educational settings, across the months it was created, this project shifted heavily into uncharted territory, instead asking and answering the following questions: what does “legitimate” knowledge look like? What impact do the standards for academic knowledge production and dissemination have upon academics and non-academics alike, and what potential lies in critiquing and circumventing these long-held standards? Utilizing a combination of content analysis, diary methods and informal interviews, this autoethnographic work provides an unfiltered glimpse into the life of a humanities graduate student. It combines theories such as Donna Haraway’s “situated knowledges” and texts such as Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis to tell a story located “from below,” predominantly in the form of a graphic novel. In doing so, the thesis argues for the use of unconventional formats when conveying both academic and personal knowledge, and demonstrates the persuasive power of vulnerability in opposition of purported “objectivity” and empiricism.

description: Exploring and analysing a dataset provides insights into what kind of data is present and how it can be used. This is especially useful for malware datasets. As an area that is growing bigger due to the implementation of machine learning techniques, having knowledge about a dataset may assist in any future machine learning task that can be done on the dataset. This work aims to gain statistical insights about a dataset of malware and to explore patterns of different families of malware. This will provide a gateway to enable categorizing malicious files based on their properties. One of the outcomes of this work is the discovery of patterns and insights as to how different attributes of a malware specimen can act as an indicator of its maliciousness.
title: Silences on the Strand: Contesting Public Memories of Slavery and Freedom in Galveston’s Civic Historical Landscape (1871-2021)
Creators: name: Landry, Katelyn
Publisher: name: Rice University
Year: 2022

description: On June 19, 2021, a mural was unveiled in Galveston, TX titled Absolute Equality. It depicts several scenes representative of enslavement and freedom and it is located at the former site of the Union Army Headquarters and where U.S. Gen. Granger read the orders that abolished America’s last vestige of slavery. The mural was unveiled with effervescent local pride in the wake of federal recognition of Juneteenth as a national holiday just two days before. U.S. politicians gave impassioned speeches to a huge crowd and media outlets about the historical and political relevance of celebrating Juneteenth and Galveston’s role in the story of freedom. Six blocks away, in front of the Galveston County Courthouse, the 22 ft. tall Dignified Resignation monument depicts a Confederate soldier. Unveiled in 1911 by the city’s local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC), the statue’s plaque reads: “There has never been an armed force which in purity of motives intensity of courage and heroism has equaled the Army and Navy of the Confederate States of America.” About ten months before Absolute Equality was unveiled, a motion to remove the Dignified Resignation monument was presented by one county commissioner but it quickly died after no other commissioner seconded the motion, and the issue has yet to be publicly debated again. The coexistence of these two sites is emblematic of the polarized narratives regarding Galveston’s history of slavery and freedom that have jockeyed for influence in the city’s civic historical landscape since the end of the Civil War. For people who are just learning about Juneteenth and registering Galveston as a place that is significant in the national story of slavery, it is easy to get the impression that Juneteenth has always been a well celebrated occasion by the city writ large. This is only partially true -- African Americans in Galveston and beyond have celebrated emancipation on June 19 since 1866, however their collective and cultural memories of emancipation and the preceding centuries of enslavement have only very recently become incorporated into Galveston’s civic historical landscape and made more widely known to the public. Rather than seeing this as a simple story of progress or diversification, this observation led me to ask: Why has it taken so long for this significant piece of Galveston’s history to come to light, and why now? Through my primary source research I have found that Local practices of memorialization and historic preservation have been constructed and enforced in ways that granted white collective memories more visibility and perceived authority in Galveston, and thus marginalized or silenced narratives that would trouble those memories such as a more honest history of slavery on the island.
Towards Explainable Machine Learning Models for Remote Sensing: Multi-modal and Uni-modal Applications for Natural Disaster

description: Natural disasters leave a path of devastation that must be managed efficiently to minimize their impact on human lives. Estimation of the damages and taking action based on those assessments are the most important two-step processes in post-disaster management efforts. With the recent progress of Artificial Intelligence (AI), many machine learning algorithms are utilizing to assess the damage. However, existing methods are less efficient and provide limited scene information. This thesis proposes a unique Vision-Language-Based multi-modal task namely Visual Question Answering (VQA) for efficient and comprehensive damage assessment. VQA enables the extraction of diverse information from images through natural language queries. This high-level scene information has the potential to optimize decision support systems, leading to increased efficiency and a reduction in the time required for search and rescue operations. On the other hand, when incorporating machine learning models into smart decision support systems, the issue of explainability in model outcomes becomes significant. In remote sensing, visual content is complex, and the available contextual information is often limited compared to the overall size of the images. In such scenarios, the model's performance may be susceptible to shortcut learning and lead to misleading results. Thus, ensuring proper explanations for model outputs becomes crucial. Motivated by the above issues, this thesis is dedicated to addressing two crucial aspects of remote sensing applications. Firstly, this thesis focused on developing an image-based question-answering framework for efficient damage assessment on remote sensing imagery. Secondly, this thesis focused on enhancing the trustworthiness of model outcomes by developing novel machine learning frameworks designed for remote sensing applications in multi-modal and uni-modal contexts. To achieve the first goal, two unique large-scale benchmark visual question-answering datasets for damage assessment namely FloodNet-VQA and RescueNet-VQA are proposed. For proper visual explanations of model outcomes, this thesis proposed novel supervised attention modules for the VQA. Proposed supervised attention modules provide auxiliary supervision in the attention-obtaining process so that the model can learn where to focus in the image content for a question to provide a rational answer. Proposed approaches showed improved explanations and achieved higher accuracy compared to the state-of-the-art VQA algorithms. Finally, for consistent and robust visual explanations in a uni-modal remote sensing task (e.g., image classification) a novel strategy is proposed. Within this framework, two distinct losses have been proposed to ensure consistency and robustness in visual explanations.

description: The first animals appear during the late Ediacaran (572 to 541 Ma); an initial diversity increase was followed reduction in diversity, often interpreted as catastrophic mass extinction. We investigate Ediacaran ecosystem structure changes over this time period using the "Elements of Metacommunity Structure" framework to assess whether this diversity reduction in the Nama was likely caused by an external mass extinction, or internal metacommunity restructuring. The oldest metacommunity was characterised by taxa with wide environmental tolerances, and limited specialisation or intertaxa associations. Structuring increased in the second oldest metacommunity, with groups of taxa sharing synchronous responses to environmental gradients, aggregating into distinct communities. This pattern strengthened in the youngest metacommunity, with communities showing strong environmental segregation and depth structure. Thus, metacommunity structure increased in complexity, with increased specialisation and resulting in competitive exclusion, not a catastrophic environmental disaster, leading to diversity loss in the terminal Ediacaran. These results reveal that the complex eco-evolutionary dynamics associated with Cambrian diversification were established in the Ediacaran.
Effects of Inorganic Salts and pH on the Gas-Water Partitioning of Formic Acid and Acetic Acid Observed using Mist Chambers
Creators: name: Taylor, Rose
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2024

description: Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is harmful to human health and contributes largeuncertainties to climate forcing. Oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs), such as carboxylic acids, make significant contributions to SOA by partitioning to atmospheric particulate and aqueous phases. Inorganic salt content and pH of atmospheric water can impact OVOC partitioning and therefore the composition and abundance of SOA. In this work, parallel sampling mist chambers (MC) coupled with wet chemical oxidation(WCO)-based total organic carbon (TOC) analysis is critically evaluated as a method for measuring effects from inorganic salts and pH on formic acid (FA) and acetic acid (AA) gas-water partitioning. High ionic concentrations of chloride (>0.01 mol kg -1 ) and sulfate (>0.1 mol kg -1 ) caused TOC measurement artifacts that required correction. Chloride concentrations characteristic to atmospheric aqueous phases exhibited a salting-out effect on FA and AA partitioning and partitioning to solutions of low pH was reduced. Sulfate did not show a stronginfluence over FA and AA partitioning. Preliminary experiments with glyoxal indicate no effects from chloride and sulfate on partitioning although salting-in effects are reported in literature. Options for further experimentation, validation, and optimization of the MC-WCO method are discussed.

description: Fracture related infections (FRI) are debilitating and costly complications of musculoskeletal trauma surgery that can result in permanent functional loss or amputation. Surgical treatment can be unsuccessful, and it is necessary to determine the predictive variables associated with FRI treatment failure, allowing one to optimise them prior to treatment and identify patients at higher risk. The clinical database at a major trauma centre was retrospectively reviewed between January 2015 and January 2021. FRI treatment failure was defined by infection recurrence or amputation. A univariable logistic regression analysis was performed, followed by a multivariable regression analysis for significant outcomes between groups on univariable analysis, to determine risk factors for treatment failure. In total, 102 patients were identified with a FRI (35 open, 67 closed fractures). FRI treatment failure occurred in 24 patients (23.5%). Risk factors determined by our multivariate logistic regression model were obesity (OR 2.522; 95% CI, 0.259−4.816; p = 0.006), Gustilo Anderson type 3c (OR 4.683; 95% CI, 2.037−9.784; p = 0.004), and implant retention (OR 2.818; 95% CI, 1.588−7.928; p = 0.041). Given that FRI treatment in 24 patients (23.5%) ended up in failure, future management need to take into account the predictive variables analysed in this study, redirect efforts to improve management and incorporate adjuvant technologies for patients at higher risk of failure, and implement a multidisciplinary team approach to optimise risk factors such as diabetes and obesity.

description: Diese Bachelorarbeit richtet sich an in der Asylfürsorge tätige Sozialarbeitende und soll diese für traumaspezifische Symptome sensibilisieren und konkrete Beratungs- und Interventionsansätze im Umgang mit traumatisierten Asylsuchenden aufzeigen. Eine Herausforderung in diesem Arbeitsfeld stellt die gesetzliche Rahmung des Asylwesens dar, die unter anderem keine Integrationsmassnahmen für Asylsuchende vorsieht, was wiederum den Handlungsrahmen der sozialarbeiterischen Interventionen beschränkt. Traumatisierte Asylsuchende stellen eine besonders schutzbedürftige Personengruppe dar, die durch asylrechtliche Strukturen und Traumaerlebnisse Beeinträchtigungen ihres physischen, psychischen und sozialen Wohlbefindens erleiden. Durch die mangelnde Bedürfnisbefriedigung können soziale Probleme entstehen, die Gegenstand der Sozialen Arbeit sind. Aufgrund der Mandatierung der Sozialen Arbeit als Menschenrechtsprofession ist eine Zuständigkeit in diesem Kontext gegeben. Nach Silvia Staub-Bernasconi können sich soziale Probleme innerhalb der Ausstattungs-, Austausch-, Macht- und Kriterienkategorie manifestieren. Die Auswirkungen insbesondere auf die Ausstattungskategorie werden in dieser Arbeit genauer erläutert. Beratungs- und Interventionsansätze müssen sich an den Ressourcen des Individuums orientieren sowie den Aufbau einer tragfähigen Beziehung begünstigen. Neben fundiertem psychologischem und juristischem Fachwissen werden auch Fähigkeiten im migrationssensiblen Handeln und im Umgang mit Sprachbarrieren verlangt. Sozialpolitisches Engagement von Fachpersonen soll auf die Missstände im Asylbereich hinweisen und bessere Lebensbedingungen für Asylsuchende schaffen.

description: With community colleges struggling with the completion rates of their students, it is important to understand the social and academic integration of community college students and their relationships to retention and completion. Research focuses on the critical role of internal college actors such as faculty, staff, and students in these integrations, but a gap in the literature exists as to the role of external stakeholders, particularly scholarship donors, in these integrations. This research will use a single qualitative case study design to explore the impact of donor involvement with the students they support with scholarships in the Achieving Collegiate Excellence and Success (ACES) program at Montgomery College. The purpose of the study is to assess how and why this donor engagement with students influences their integrations and motivates them to achieve their academic goals at rates higher than other students in the program who have not received donor-given scholarships or whose donors are not engaged. The case study design will incorporate three components: interviews and focus groups with ACES students, alumni, donors, and staff, as well as document analysis of thank you letters from scholarship recipients to the donors. The research will examine this question through the theoretical framework of Tinto’s Theory of Student Persistence (1993). This theory focuses on faculty, staff, and student interactions impacting academic and social integration. This research looks to expand upon the theory that external stakeholders, such as engaged scholarship donors, play critical roles in social and academic integration of community college students. The donors do not supplant the critical role of faculty, staff, and students in the integrations, as Tinto notes, but rather complement the role in various ways to enhance student academic and social integration leading to retention and college completion. If students cite the importance of donor involvement in their integrations to college life, leading to retention and completion, more programs with greater donor involvement with need-based scholarship recipients may be implemented by community colleges to increase student completion. Community colleges may be more intentional in their approach to philanthropy for scholarships, the role of donors with students, and how they complement the role of faculty, staff, and other students in the scholarship recipients’ social and academic integrations.

description: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the United States. A potential risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, loneliness is defined as a perceived discrepancy between one’s desired and actual levels of social connectedness. It is a subjective appraisal rather than objective measures of social contacts. Loneliness has been found to be associated with morbidity and mortality risk. In this study, the relation of loneliness to six commonly screened cardiovascular risk factors (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, glycated hemoglobin, BMI, waist circumference and total cholesterol) was examined. Sex, race, and socioeconomic status (SES) were explored as potential moderators using a model construction approach. Data from the Healthy Aging in the Neighborhoods of Diversity across the Life Span (HANDLS) Study—a Baltimore-based epidemiological study—were used in the current study. No main effects of loneliness were identified with regard to any of the cardiovascular risk factors. One interactive relation of loneliness * sex * SES emerged in the total cholesterol model, such that loneliness was associated with lower cholesterol level for men of lower SES background, but not for men of higher SES background or women. No other interactive relations were identified. The statistically significant interaction withstood further adjustment of behavioral and affective factors in sensitivity analyses. While the results from the current study did not add substantial support to the role of loneliness in cardiovascular risk, it is argued that future research is needed to better understand the nuanced relation of loneliness and health.

description: Abstract: The surface porosity of graphene-based aerogels strongly influences their performance in applications involving mass transfer. However, the factors determining the surface porosities are not well-understood, hindering their application-specific optimisation. Here, through experiments and hydrodynamic simulations, we show that the high shear stress during the graphene-based aerogel fabrication process via 3D printing leads to a non-porous surface. Conversely, crosslinking of the sheets hinders flake alignment caused by shearing, resulting in a porous surface. Our findings enable fine control of surface porosity of printed graphene-oxide aerogels (GOA) through regulation of the crosslinking agents and shear stress. Using this strategy, we demonstrate the performance advantages of GOA with porous surface over their non-porous counterpart in dye adsorption, underscoring the importance of surface porosity in certain application scenarios.

description: Viral superinfection occurs when multiple viral particles subsequently infect the same host. In nature, several viral species are found to have evolved diverse mechanisms to prevent superinfection (superinfection exclusion) but how this strategic choice impacts the fate of mutations in the viral population remains unclear. Using stochastic simulations, we find that genetic drift is suppressed when superinfection occurs, thus facilitating the fixation of beneficial mutations and the removal of deleterious ones. Interestingly, we also find that the competitive (dis)advantage associated with variations in life history parameters is not necessarily captured by the viral growth rate for either infection strategy. Putting these together, we then show that a mutant with superinfection exclusion will easily overtake a superinfecting population even if the latter has a much higher growth rate. Our findings suggest that while superinfection exclusion can negatively impact the long-term adaptation of a viral population, in the short-term it is ultimately a winning strategy.
title: Freedom’s Archive: Slavery, Emancipation, & Reconstruction in Fort Bend County
Creators: name: Schachter, Ben
Publisher: name: Rice University
Year: 2022

description: This thesis tells the story of the Wheat family from their enslavement in Fort Bend County by Frederick Allen Rice through their experiences during emancipation, Reconstruction, and Jim Crow. It studies questions of change and continuity and grapples with the inadequacies of traditional sources to try and tell a rich, colorful story of one Black family's life. The thesis finds that while there was certainly some progress from slavery, one family member's gains might be weighed down by setbacks for another. It also argues that freedom's archive is not well-suited to answering the sort of broad, overarching questions historians of this time period often ask when searching for a definitive answer to how revolutionary Reconstruction was. This thesis also asserts the importance of attempting to reconstruct just a few people's lives and their genealogies, emphasizing enslaved people's claims on the present.

description: Global warming is drastically reducing the polar ice caps and leading to sea level rise. Continuous monitoring and measurement of this reduction is imperative to estimate the resulting socio-economic damage that may affect human lives. Polar ice sheets are typically monitored through airborne radar sensors which give a two- dimensional image of the subsurface profile. Multiple snow accumulation layers can be observed in these images, the changing thickness of which can contribute to glacier accumulation or ablation rates. A variety of semi-automated techniques have been proposed in the past which process the radargrams and identify these snow accumulation layers. This work proposes the use of deep learning to develop fully-automated algorithms for snow layer detection and discusses some of the issues faced while developing these algorithms, such as the low visibility of the layers, noise in the radargram and the lack of quality training labels. This work thus proposes ‘hybrid’ deep learning architectures where the architecture is not just data-driven, but also leverages additional physical information of the environment, or of the radar signal, to improve the generalizability, robustness, and scientific reliability of the architectures. Such hybrid approaches for neural network training not only provide techniques to augment a purely data-driven architecture with physical information, but also offer potential extensions to various radar systems; thereby enhancing snow layer detection and refining climate change projections.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit zielt darauf ab, die Soziale Arbeit in der Institution Schule genauer zu verorten und zu erkennen, welche Funktion sie zu übernehmen hat. Diese Arbeit soll Denkanstösse für die Professionellen der Sozialen Arbeit bieten, welche die Grundlage für weitere Handlungsansätze darstellen kann. Die Soziale Arbeit handelt an der Schnittstelle zwischen Individuum und Gesellschaft. Bildung stellt in unserer Gesellschaft eine wichtige Ressource dar. Sie hat einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf die soziale Position einer Person. Bildung ist entscheidend für den Lebenslauf und schafft Handlungsmöglichkeiten. Im Schweizer Schulsystem ist eine gewisse Bildungsungleichheit vorhanden. Basierend auf der Zuständigkeit der Sozialen Arbeit, sollte sie dieser Problematik entgegen wirken. Die Handlungsinterventionen und Systemveränderungsversuche der Sozialen Arbeit zielen auf die Förderung sozialer Gerechtigkeit ab. Durch die gegebenen Umstände sollte eine erhöhte Kooperation zwischen der Sozialen Arbeit und der Schule stattfinden. Dies bedeutet für die Soziale Arbeit ihre Aufgabenbereiche in der Institution Schule klar zu definieren. Dies würde die Soziale Arbeit in ihrer Identität als Profession stärken.

description: This dissertation focuses on point-of-care sensors designed for bacteria detection alongside an in-depth exploration of fabric-based wearable sensor technology. A state-of-the-art bacteria sensor was designed for high-sensitivity detection of bacterial infections, particularly urinary tract infections. The sensor system comprises a customizable 3D printed Ag+ selective electrode, an innovative potentiometer with an Arduino interface for data transmission, and a compact filter system for sample preparation. This system achieved a remarkable limit of detection (LOD) of 80 CFU/mL within 15 Minutes. Then, a pioneering application of fabric-based microfluidics for wearable sensing was developed, offering a significant advancement over traditional microfluidic materials. It utilizes ABS films with pre-cut microfluidic patterns embedded within fabrics, providing robustness and enhanced sweat delivery efficiency. Incorporating a distinctive wearable potentiometer for signal readouts, we applied the fabric-based microfluidic system for real-time Ca2+ detection from sweat, demonstrating exceptional analytical performance for in vivo testing. Additionally, we introduced an alternative method for fabricating microfluidic structures using PVC polymer-based printing ink and integrated it with a novel generation of C18-modified fabric for the detection of uric acid. The C18 modification significantly enhances the fabric's proficiency for effective protein capture and enables long-term uric acid detection, opening new avenues for real-time monitoring of small molecule metabolites. Together, this research contributes to the advancement of bacteria detection and wearable sensor technologies, with potential applications in healthcare and beyond.
