The chaplain in health and welfare services: a study of his role in the general hospital with special reference to the Vancouver General Hospital and recent developments in the clinical pastoral training movement
Creators: name: MacRae, Robert Daniel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study was undertaken (a) to examine some areas where the traditional role of the chaplain has undergone significant changes, (b) to determine the present role of the chaplain in a general hospital and (c) to study the Clinical Pastoral Training Movement, and its significance to the traditional chaplaincy and to social work. After a discussion of the historical background of the chaplaincy in the Christian Church and in some selected social institutions, there is an examination of the role of the chaplain in the general hospital and a discussion of some religious needs of patients. To gain information from chaplains at Vancouver General Hospital each was interviewed and a questionnaire was completed. The chaplains also kept statistics of some aspects of their work for a two-week period. There is an examination of the chaplain's backgrounds, their counselling practices and referral patterns. The latter are compared to referral patterns made by theological students and social work students in three brief case illustrations. The Clinical Pastoral Training Movement and its literature are examined in some detail. Standards and curriculum are outlined and references made to the rapid expansion of the movement. Implications are drawn for the Churches, the Vancouver General Hospital and social work. Some specific suggestions are made for these three areas arising from these findings.

description: Η ανησυχία για το περιβάλλον είναι παγκόσμιο φαινόμενο, η πρόβλεψη για εξάντληση των ορυκτών πόρων σε περίπου  6 δεκαετίες, το φαινόμενο του θερμοκηπίου, η κλιματική αλλαγή, η αύξηση των αέριων ρύπων αποτέλεσε κινητήρια δύναμη για την ανάπτυξη εναλλακτικών μέσων μεταφοράς φιλικότερων προς το περιβάλλον.
Η διείσδυση των ηλεκτρικών οχημάτων αναμένεται σε 2 δεκαετίες να ξεπεράσει  το 50% της αγοράς νέων επιβατικών οχημάτων και επομένως θα δημιουργηθεί η ανάγκη για την κατασκευή υποδομών φόρτισης ενώ θα υπάρχουν ποικίλες συνέπειες στο ηλεκτρικό δίκτυο.
Σε αυτό το πλαίσιο σχεδιάστηκε ένας σταθμός φόρτισης ηλεκτρικών οχημάτων. Μελετήθηκαν διάφορα σενάρια όσον αφορά το ρυθμό προσέλευσης των οχημάτων με σκοπό την βέλτιστη διαστασιολόγηση του διαθέσιμου εξοπλισμού και πόρων.
Σκοπός της παρούσας διπλωματικής είναι η ανάπτυξη ενός συστήματος ελέγχου φόρτισης που ως στόχο έχει την ικανοποίηση των αναγκών φόρτισης των χρηστών των ηλεκτρικών οχημάτων χωρίς να παραβιάζονται ταυτόχρονα οι τεχνικοί περιορισμοί του δικτύου και του οχήματος. Η μελέτη αυτή αφορά τις επιπτώσεις διείσδυσης των οχημάτων στο δίκτυο για δύο σενάρια φόρτισης:
1) Συμβατική Φόρτιση (Conventional Charge)
2) Ελεγχόμενη Φόρτιση (Smart Charge)
Η μοντελοποίηση της έξυπνης φόρτισης πραγματοποιήθηκε με τη χρήση της συνάρτησης FMINCON της MATLAB, με σκοπό την εύρεση των τοπικών ή ολικών ελάχιστων τιμών της χρονοσειράς ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας με παράλληλη ικανοποίηση του επιπέδου φόρτισης του συσσωρευτή κατά το πέρας της παραμονής του οχήματος στο σταθμό φόρτισης. Βασικά κριτήρια σύμφωνα με τα οποία αναπτύχθηκε το συγκεκριμένο σύστημα ελέγχου αποτέλεσε:
1) Ελαχιστοποίηση του κόστους φόρτισης των οχημάτων σύμφωνα με την τιμή της ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας κάθε χρονική στιγμή.
2) Διασφάλιση της επάρκειας φόρτισης των συσσωρευτών του εκάστοτε ηλεκτρικού οχήματος σύμφωνα με τις απαιτήσεις των καταναλωτών.

description: We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of small, strongly correlated clusters, described by a Hubbard Hamiltonian, by propagating in time the Kadanoff-Baym equations within the Hartree-Fock, 2nd Born, GW and T-matrix approximations. We compare the results to exact numerical solutions. We find that the T-matrix is overall superior to the other approximations, and is in good agreement with the exact results in the low-density regime. In the long time limit, the many-body approximations attain an unphysical steady state which we attribute to the implicit inclusion of infinite order diagrams in a few-body system.

description: Natural language generation (NLG) is the process wherein computers produce output in readable human languages. Such output takes myriad forms, including news articles, sports reports, prose fiction, and poetry. These computer-generated texts are often indistinguishable from human-written texts, and they are increasingly prevalent. Yet NLG has not been subject to any comprehensive study within the humanities.
This thesis represents the first such study. Through an interdisciplinary approach rooted in the humanities, but also drawing from the social sciences and computer science, this thesis explores the social and hermeneutic implications of NLG. More specifically, it examines how NLG challenges traditional understandings of authorship and what it means to be a reader. Any act of reading engages interpretive faculties, and readers tend to assume that a text is an effort to communicate a particular message. Readers ascribe authorial intention, hence developing a perceived contract between the author and the reader: ‘the hermeneutic contract’.
Computer-generated texts in their current state bring the hermeneutic contract into question. The hermeneutic contract’s communication principle rests on two assumptions: that readers believe that authors want them to be interested in their texts, and that authors want readers to understand their texts. The contract depends on an understanding of authorship as characterised by intention-driven agency. This thesis presents the results of a series of focus groups and an online questionnaire conducted to discern readers’ emotional responses to NLG and how readers attribute authorship to computer-generated texts. The results of these studies indicate that readers assign a sense of agency to an NLG system, attempting to establish the hermeneutic contract even when faced with a computer-generated text. Consequently, I argue that a continuum from authorship to generatorship is perhaps a more suitable schema for considering computer-generated texts than a simple author-not author dichotomy.
This thesis begins with a historical overview of salient narrative NLG systems. The discussion then shifts to a theoretical consideration of authorship and the role of the reader as pertaining to NLG systems. Then, the results of the abovementioned empirical studies are reviewed and analysed. The final chapter argues for a semantic shift from describing NLG systems as tools to social agents in themselves; the NLG system truly becomes an algorithmic author.
NLG is here, and it is everywhere. This thesis explores what that means from a humanities perspective.
Robustness of a bisimulation-type faster-than preorder

description: TACS is an extension of CCS where upper time bounds for delays can be specified. Luettgen and Vogler defined three variants of bismulation-type faster-than relations and showed that they all three lead to the same preorder, demonstrating the robustness of their approach. In the present paper, the operational semantics of TACS is extended; it is shown that two of the variants still give the same preorder as before, underlining robustness. An explanation is given why this result fails for the third variant. It is also shown that another variant, which mixes old and new operational semantics, can lead to smaller relations that prove the same preorder.

Foster home planning for the Indian child: a casework study of foster children, parents, foster parents, and agency service: Children's Aid Society of Vancouver, 1959-1961
Creators: name: Massy, Patricia Graham (Bibbs)
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The core of this study is an intensive review of a small sample of Indian foster children, their natural parents, their foster parents and of the services each group receives from a children's aid society. To a considerable extent, this is a test of facts against theoretical knowledge and against common beliefs. It is also an operational study which has been undertaken in response to a specific need, and with the hope of finding some procedures for remedial action. The research material is drawn from thirty-one sets of three kinds of files, and the returns from twenty-four questionnaires which were mailed to the foster parent group with covering letters. Data were also secured from a questionnaire which was pretested in an interview with one foster mother who had several Indian children; from consultations with social workers and other experienced people; and from personal knowledge gained by working with the groups involved. A preliminary review of Indians in British Columbia, historically and currently, throws light on the special problems of Indians here characterized as "marginality", "anomie" and prejudice. The study is, then, directed to three primary questions relating to: (1) planning foster placement for the Indian child; (2) the adequacy of the service offered to the Indian children, their parents and foster parents; and (3) the equipment of the social worker who handles Indian cases. The research also throws light upon eight other related queries, which were formulated in the course of the enquiry. On the basis of the evidence from the aggregate material, a number of procedures are proposed, both for improved service in planning for the Indian foster child, and for helping the agency and its workers who are responsible for his care.

description: We report superconducting resistive transition characteristics for array(s) of coupled 4-Angstrom single wall carbon nanotubes embedded in aluminophosphate-five (AFI) zeolite. The transition was observed to initiate at 15K with a slow resistance decrease switching to a sharp, order of magnitude drop between 7.5-6.0K. The transition has strong (anisotropic) magnetic field dependence. Differential resistance versus current (voltage) measurements indicate that the establishment of coherence proceeds in stages as the temperature is lowered below 15K. In particular, the sharp resistance drop and its attendant nonlinear IV characteristics are consistent with the manifestations of a Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition that establishes quasi long range order in the plane transverse to the c-axis of the nanotubes, leading to an inhomogeneous system comprising 3D superconducting regions connected by weak links. Global coherence is established at below 5K with the appearance of a well-defined supercurrent gap at 2K.
Bright solitons and self-trapping with a BEC of cold atoms in driven tilted optical lattices

description: We suggest a method for creating bright matter solitons by loading a BEC of atoms in a driven tilted optical lattice. It is shown that one can realize the self-focussing regime for the wave-packet dynamics by properly adjusting the phase of the driving field with respect to the phase of Bloch oscillations. If atom-atom interactions are larger than some critical value $g_{min}$, this self-focussing regime is followed by the formation of bright solitons. Increasing the interactions above another critical value $g_{max}$ makes this process unstable. Instead of soliton formation one now meets the phenomenon of incoherent self-trapping. In this regime a fraction of atoms is trapped in incoherent localized wave-packets, while the remaining atoms spread ballistically.

description: If the history of science has taught us anything, it's that persistence and creativity makes the once impossible possible. It has long been thought experimental tests of quantum gravity are impossible. But during the last decade, several different approaches have been proposed that allow us to test, if not the fundamental theory of quantum gravity itself, so at least characteristic features this theory can have. For the first time we can probe experimentally domains in which quantum physics and gravity cohabit, in spite of our failure so far to make a convincing marriage of them on a theoretical level.

The selective value of modifiers of the eyeless locus in Drosophila melanogaster
Creators: name: Wills, Christopher James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The reactions of a spectrum of eyeless phenotypes of Drosophila melanogaster, ranging from complete eyelessness to overlapping of the wild type, were examined with respect to the action of modifiers of the ey locus. Flies with less than 1/3 of a compound eye were found to show no response to light. Modifiers of eyeless could be selected for and against under constant environmental conditions. The continuous range of variation exhibited by the locus indicates that a large number of modifiers are involved. Under laboratory conditions, the effect of light alone was shown to have no influence on the rate of accumulation of modifiers in large populations, in spite of the fact that the absence of eyes was demonstrated to exert a great effect on the photokinetic response of the flies. This indicates that under the conditions found in population cages the absence or reduction of compound eyes and optic lobes is not detectably disadvantageous to the flies. Three sampling techniques were used to determine the phenotypic distribution of the flies in the cages. Mass culturing of egg samples produced great variability in the phenotypic means of the adult flies, due to crowding and the variable number of flies which emerged. Suction samples of flies taken directly from the cages were biased towards those flies which were most normal and vigorous and therefore most likely to be trapped by the suction device. The method which introduced the least variability involved isolating a small known number of eggs from the cages and culturing them under uncrowded conditions.

description: We present the results of the largest survey to date for intergalactic metals at redshifts z > 5, using near-IR spectra of nine QSOs with emission redshifts z(em) > 5.7. We find, for the first time, a change in the comoving mass density of C IV ions as we look back to redshifts z > 5. At a mean = 5.76, we deduce Omega(C IV)=(4.4+/-2.6)x10^(-9) which implies a drop by a factor of about 3.5 compared to the value at z < 4.7, after accounting for the differing sensitivities of different surveys. The observed number of C IV doublets is also lower by a similar factor, compared to expectations for a non-evolving column density distribution of absorbers. These results point to a rapid build-up of intergalactic C IV over a period of only 300 Myr; such a build-up could reflect the accumulation of metals associated with the rising levels of star formation activity from z = 9 indicated by galaxy counts, and/or an increasing degree of ionisation of the intergalactic medium (IGM), following the overlap of ionisation fronts from star-forming regions. If the value of Omega(C IV) we derive is typical of the IGM at large, it would imply a metallicity Z(IGM) = 10^(-4) Z(Sun). The early-type stars responsible for synthesising these metals would have emitted only about one Lyman continuum photon per baryon prior to z = 5.8; such a background is insufficient to keep the IGM ionised and we speculate on possible factors which could make up the required shortfall.

Do Cosmic Rays Perturb the Operation of a Large Resonant Spherical Detector of Gravitational Waves?
Creators: name: G. Pizzella
Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 1999

description: The sensitivity of resonant gravitational wave detectors is reviewed. The effect of cosmic rays on a large spherical detector is considered. It is shown that the sensitivity to short bursts, to monochromatic and to stochastic GW is not significantly degraded by cosmic rays. This means that it is not necessary to install a large resonant detector in an underground laboratory and supports the idea to install it near a GW interferometer.

description: We consider possible indications of Very-Short-BaseLine (VSBL) electron neutrino disappearance into sterile neutrinos in MiniBooNE neutrino data and Gallium radioactive source experiments. We discuss the compatibility of such a disappearance with reactor and MiniBooNE antineutrino data. We find a tension between neutrino and antineutrino data which could be due to: 1) statistical fluctuations; 2) underestimate of systematic uncertainties; 3) exclusion of our hypothesis of VSBL nu_e disappearance; 4) a violation of CPT symmetry. Considering the first possibility, we present the results of a combined fit of all data, which indicate that P_{ee} < 1 with 97.04 CL. We consider also the possibility of CPT violation, which leads to the best-fit value A_{ee}^{CPT,bf} = -0.17 for the asymmetry of the nu_e and antinu_e survival probabilities and A_{ee}^{CPT} < 0 at 99.7 CL.

description: Background: People with dementia are increasingly becoming involved in advocacy to seek change in the ways that dementia is understood by individuals, organisations, and society. A growing number of studies have explored the experiences and motivations of people with dementia who advocate, however they have not explored the impact of advocacy within a healthcare context.

Aims: The aims were to explore the personal blogs of people with dementia who advocate, and to investigate the impact of these blogs on healthcare professionals who work alongside people with dementia.

Methods: Two people with dementia and four healthcare professionals took part. The narrative practice of outsider witnessing was used to connect the blog entries of each person with dementia to two healthcare professionals. Following this group meeting, healthcare professionals were also interviewed individually. A Dialogical Narrative Analysis was used to explore blog posts and the narratives that were elicited from healthcare professionals pertaining to the impact of these blog posts.

Analysis: Blog posts suggested that being diagnosed with dementia could initially be associated with loss. However, they also suggested that through a process of psychological acceptance and adaptation to symptoms, it was possible to continue living a full and meaningful life with dementia. Healthcare professionals reported that hearing blog entries from people with dementia enabled them to develop a greater
insight into the experience of dementia, challenged their preconceived ideas about dementia, and incentivised them to change their practice.

Conclusions: The findings provided initial support for the value of including advocacy by people with dementia (through their blog entries) into approaches to training and educating healthcare professionals. However, the effects of advocacy need to be explored further by studies which employ more rigorous methodologies. Moreover, there is a need for healthcare professionals and training providers to be open and receptive to involving people with dementia in service delivery.

description: Introduction: Generally surgical repair is preferred treatment option for neonates with Coarctation of Aorta (CoA). Data is limited pertaining to trends of utilization and hospital outcomes of patients undergoing surgical repair of CoA. Materials and Methods:  From the year 2002-2013, data from NIS database was utilized. Patients with primary diagnosis of CoA were identified using ICD-9CM code 747.10. Further patients undergoing surgery were identified using ICD-9CM procedure codes (38.34, 38.35, 38.44, 38.45, 38.64 and 38.65). For trend analysis, chi-square test for proportions was used using the Cochrane Armitage test via the “trend” command in Statistical Analysis Software (SAS). For continuous variables median was reported and p-value calculated using Wilcoxon rank sum test. Multivariate odds ratio were calculated. Analyses were performed using hospital-level discharge weights provided by the NIS, to obtain national estimates. Complications were calculated using specific Patient Safety Indicator (PSI) codes released by HCUP. P-value for <0.05 was considered as significant for all analysis. Results: From 2002-2013, 4655 (weighted n=22154) cases of CoA were identified. 65.9% underwent surgery. Trends of utilization of surgery significantly decreased from 70.9% to 65.1% (p-value 0.002). Median length of stay (LOS) increased significantly for patients undergoing surgery 6.3 days to 7.4 days (p-value 0.007). Median cost of hospitalization increased significantly for surgery $27137 to $43154 (p-value <0.001). Overall median age for patients undergoing surgical correction was found to be 0 years. Overall, 51.8% patients had complications while undergoing surgery. Overall mortality for patients undergoing surgical repair was found to be 1.59%. Trends of mortality decreased from 1.47 % to 1.01 % (p-value <0.001). Most common complication was respiratory complications which occurred in 34.6% patients followed by cardiac complications 26.1%. On multivariate logistic regression for any complications with minimally adjusted confounding variables, it was observed that Odds of developing complications decreased with increasing age (Odds ratio [OR] 0.90, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.83 to 0.96, p-value 0.0027). Patients with associated cardiac conditions had higher odds of developing complications however it was found to be non significant. (OR 1.73 95% CI 0.93 to 3.21, p-value 0.081). Conclusion: From the above results we may conclude that utilization of surgical correction has decreased and so has the mortality associated with the procedure. However, over time length of stay and hospitalization costs have increased significantly.
Numerical study on diverging probability density function of flat-top solitons in an extended Korteweg-de Vries equation

description: We consider an extended Korteweg-de Vries (eKdV) equation, the usual Korteweg-de Vries equation with inclusion of an additional cubic nonlinearity. We investigate the statistical behaviour of flat-top solitary waves described by an eKdV equation in the presence of weak dissipative disorder in the linear growth/damping term. With the weak disorder in the system, the amplitude of solitary wave randomly fluctuates during evolution. We demonstrate numerically that the probability density function of a solitary wave parameter $κ$ which characterizes the soliton amplitude exhibits loglognormal divergence near the maximum possible $κ$ value.

description: We present the design of the trigger system for the KLOE experiment at the Frascati phi-factory DAFNE. The detector consists of a large volume drift chamber and a calorimeter both immersed in a 0.52 T solenoidal field. The trigger, structured with a first- and a second-decision level, is based on multiplicity of energy deposits in the calorimeter and of hits in the drift chamber. The selection criteria are described and the efficiency for detecting phi decays are evaluated with the data collected during the first runs.

Origin of coexisting large Seebeck coefficient and metallic conductivity in the electron doped SrTiO$_3$ and KTaO$_3$

description: We study the origin of the large Seebeck coefficient despite the metallic conductivity in the La-doped SrTiO$_3$ and Ba-doped KTaO$_3$. We calculate the band structure of SrTiO$_3$ and KTaO$_3$, from which the Seebeck coefficient is obtained using the Boltzmann's equation. We conclude that the multiplicity of the $t_{2g}$ bands in these materials is one major origin of the good thermoelectric property in that when compared at a fixed total number of doped electrons, the Seebeck coefficient and thus the power factor are larger in multiple band systems than in single band ones because the number of doped electron bands {\it per band} is smaller in the former. We also find that the second nearest neighbor hopping integral, which generally has negative values in these materials and works destructively against the Seebeck effect, is nearly similar between KTaO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$ despite the larger band width in the former. This can be another factor favorable for thermopower in the Ba-doped KTaO$_3$.

description: A novel approach for the simultaneous determination of orthophosphate and arsenate as a vital parameter for environmental controlling was developed using the molybdenum blue method. The second-order chemometrics analysis was employed to overcome significant spectral overlapping among analytes and interferences. Two powerful second-order calibration methods including, Bilinear least squares/residual bilinearization (BLLS/RBL) and Parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) methodologies, were used for analysing kinetic-spectroscopic second-order data and the decomposition of spectra and quantification of analytes. These methodologies are capable of accurate and reliable discernment of the target analyte signals, even in the presence of unknown and uncalibrated interferences, which are inherently capable of providing the second-order advantage. No sample pretreatment or separation steps were required. The proposed method was performed on the water samples, and the accuracies of both methods were successfully validated by the analytical figures of merit (FOM). The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.28 and 0.29 µmol L−1 using BLLS/RBL method and 0.14 and 0.16 µmol L−1 using PARAFAC method for orthophosphate and arsenate, respectively. Orthophosphate and arsenate recoveries in real water samples were determined between 97.0 and 100.5% using both methods.

Aggregation and fragmentation dynamics of inertial particles in chaotic flows

description: Inertial particles advected in chaotic flows often accumulate in strange attractors. While moving in these fractal sets they usually approach each other and collide. Here we consider inertial particles aggregating upon collision. The new particles formed in this process are larger and follow the equation of motion with a new parameter. These particles can in turn fragment when they reach a certain size or shear forces become sufficiently large. The resulting system consists of a large set of coexisting dynamical systems with a varying number of particles. We find that the combination of aggregation and fragmentation leads to an asymptotic steady state. The asymptotic particle size distribution depends on the mechanism of fragmentation. The size distributions resulting from this model are consistent with those found in rain drop statistics and in stirring tank experiments.

description: A model of two-species bosons moving on the sites of a lattice is studied at nonzero temperature, focusing on magnetic order and superfluid-insulator transitions. Firstly, Landau theory is used to find the general structure of the phase diagram, and in particular to demonstrate the presence of first-order transitions and hysteresis in the vicinity of a multicritical point. Secondly, an explicit thermodynamic phase diagram is calculated using an approach based on a field-theoretical description of the Bose-Hubbard model, which incorporates the crucial effects of particle-number fluctuations. The maximum transition temperature to a magnetically ordered Mott insulator is found to be limited by the presence of the superfluid phase.

description: The present study was developed to model and optimise 2,4-Dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) degradation from aqueous solution using UVC/SPS/Cu2+ system based on the response surface methodology (RSM) and Box-Behenken (BBD) approach. A high removal efficiency (92.75%) and total organic carbon (TOC) reduction (61.5%) were obtained under optimum conditions, i.e. (Time = 59 min, SPS Con. = 58.74 mg/L, Cu2+ Con = 14.12 mg/L, pH = 11, Initial Con = 6 mg/L). Quenching experiments confirmed that sulphate radicals were predominant radical species for 2-4-DNP degradation. The effect of CO3− on 2,4-DNP degradation was more complicated than other aquatic background anions. Finally, the performance of UVC/SPS/Cu2+ system for 2,4-DNP treatment in different aquatic solutions: tap water, surface runoff, treated and raw wastewater were found to be 89.76%, 81.65%, 51.22% and 75.94%, respectively.
