description: This study uses data derived from participant-observation in a preschool for deaf children, in-depth interviews of Deaf and hearing parents and a hearing teacher, and videotaped interaction between adults and preschool deaf children to investigate the complex relationships among expressed language attitudes, communication behavior, and social identity when deafness is a variable. It systematically documents parents' and educators' expressed attitudes about language and deafness together with the observed communication behavior of eight of these adults with three preschool deaf children. Socio-political variables operating within the school are identified and social processes and symbols analyzed when the Deaf parents form a special interest group. Analysis suggest that variables related to the socio-political context, the individual social actor, and the interactional spheres in which those actors participate combine in complex ways to give shape to the social life within the school. Deaf people who recognize themselves as socially and culturally Deaf and use sign language constitute a social group similar to an ethnic group. Establishing a basic social identity with respect to membership in such a Deaf group is a complex process for deaf children, however, since parents and teachers are usually not deaf but have normal hearing. Schools for deaf children are complex linguistic and social environments with interaction among parents, teachers and children shaped, in part, by tensions between two competing social identities, "Deaf" and "hearing," which are symbolized, in part, by two competing languages, American Sign Language (ASL) and manually encoded English (MCE). Analysis of the videotapes focused on the use of targeted features of MCE and ASL by the participants. The adults and children differed in theoretically important ways with respect to their linguistic experiences, skills, and preferences; however, analysis showed that all of the participants used code-mixing in their communication. Data from the videotapes, interviews, and participant-observation together suggest how an individual's choice of language and his or her expressed language attitudes serve to indicate, construct, and maintain Deaf or hearing social identity during social interaction with others. The resultant implications for parents, teachers, and schools are discussed.

description: A challenge of skeleton-based action recognition is the difficulty to classify actions with similar motions and object-related actions. Visual clues from other streams help in that regard. RGB data are sensible to illumination conditions, thus unusable in the dark. To alleviate this issue and still benefit from a visual stream, we propose a modular network (FUSION) combining skeleton and infrared data. A 2D convolutional neural network (CNN) is used as a pose module to extract features from skeleton data. A 3D CNN is used as an infrared module to extract visual cues from videos. Both feature vectors are then concatenated and exploited conjointly using a multilayer perceptron (MLP). Skeleton data also condition the infrared videos, providing a crop around the performing subjects and thus virtually focusing the attention of the infrared module. Ablation studies show that using pre-trained networks on other large scale datasets as our modules and data augmentation yield considerable improvements on the action classification accuracy. The strong contribution of our cropping strategy is also demonstrated. We evaluate our method on the NTU RGB+D dataset, the largest dataset for human action recognition from depth cameras, and report state-of-the-art performances.

description: We study isometric actions of tree automorphism groups on the infinite-dimensional hyperbolic spaces. On the one hand, we exhibit a general one-parameter family of such representations and analyse the corresponding equivariant embeddings of the trees, showing that they are convex-cocompact and asymptotically isometric. On the other hand, focusing on the case of sufficiently transitive groups of automorphisms of locally finite trees, we classify completely all irreducible representations by isometries of hyperbolic spaces. It turns out that in this case our one-parameter family exhausts all non-elementary representations.

AN ECONOMETRIC MODEL OF THE CYCLICAL SENSITIVITY OF OASDI OUTLAYS
Creators: name: Laroe, Ross Marsh
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: An econometric model of outlays for the Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) program is constructed in this study. The model is designed to estimate the impact of changes in economic activity (chiefly changes in the unemployment rate) on OASDI outlays. The model has two components. The beneficiary component estimates flows of primary beneficiaries into and out of the program and the number of widow, widower, and child beneficiaries. The benefit payment component estimates average awards and average benefits for primary beneficiaries, average benefit payments for widow, widower, and child beneficiaries, and remaining payments as residual outlays. OASDI outlays were increased by $315.6 million (or.24 percent) from the business cycle peak in the first quarter of 1971 to the peak in the fourth quarter of 1973 and by $285.8 million (or .38 percent) during the contraction which extended from the first quarter of 1974 to the first quarter of 1975 due to departures from full employment. Previous econometric models incorrectly estimate both the short and long run impact of increased unemployment on OASDI outlays. Federal government estimates based on previous models suggest that a one percentage point increase in the unemployment rate lasting two years will increase outlays by .22 percent in the first year and .52 percent in the second year. The model developed in this study estimates that such an increase in unemployment will increase outlays by .06 percent in the first year and .23 percent in the second year. Previous models estimate that a three year increase in unemployment will continue to influence outlays for only one to two years after the unemployment rate is reduced. The model developed in this study estimates that outlays will be .37 percent higher in the third year after unemployment is reduced. Thus previous econometric models of OASDI overestimate the short run impact and underestimate the long run impact of increases in the unemployment rate.

description: Extragalactic planetary nebulae (PNe) are detectable through relatively strong nebulous [OIII] emission and act as direct probes into the local stellar population. Because they have an apparently universal invariant magnitude cut-off, PNe are also considered to be a remarkable standard candle for distance estimation. Through detecting PNe within the galaxies, we aim to connect the relative abundances of PNe to the properties of their host galaxy stellar population. By removing the stellar background components from FCC 167 and FCC 219, we aim to produce PN luminosity functions (PNLF) of these galaxies, and thereby also estimate the distance modulus to these two systems. Finally, we test the reliability and robustness of our novel detection and analysis method. It detects unresolved point sources by their [OIII] 5007Å emission within regions that have previously been unexplored. We model the [OIII] emissions in the spatial and spectral dimensions together, as afforded to us by the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE), and we draw on data gathered as part of the Fornax3D survey. For each source, we inspect the properties of the nebular emission lines to remove other sources that might hinder the safe construction of the PNLF, such as supernova remnants and HII regions. As a further step, we characterise any potential limitations and draw conclusions about the reliability of our modelling approach through a set of simulations. By applying this novel detection and modelling approach to integral field unit observations, we report for the distance estimates and luminosity-specific PNe frequency values for the two galaxies. Furthermore, we include an overview of source contamination, galaxy differences, and possible effects on the PNe populations in the dense stellar environments.

PEER EVALUATIONS OF HOMEMAKER-MOTHERS AND WORKING MOTHERS

Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This study examined the ratings made of a stimulus woman who chose either a traditional or nontraditional mothering role and either a high or low level of family income, as judged by women who themselves were homemaker-mothers or working mothers. Ninety-six women, half traditional-role homemaking mothers and half nontraditional-role working mothers, served as subjects. Participants read one of four scripts depicting the fictional mother, wrote a brief description of her, and then rated her on three pencil-and-paper measures. A factor analysis revealed that the responses clustered along four dimensions: Motherliness, Interpersonal Attractiveness, Level of Conflict, and Evaluation. The results indicated that the similarity or difference between the stimulus woman's role choice and the evaluator's (participant's) own choice strongly affects the nature of the judgments made about the stimulus woman. A woman who chose a similar role was rated significantly more positively than one who chose a dissimilar role. Characteristics of the stimulus woman herself (her role choice or income level) had much less impact on the evaluations. The traditional and nontraditional roles were not evaluated differently in general, though the traditional-role mother was judged to be somewhat higher on Motherliness than the nontraditional-role mother. The income level of the stimulus woman did not differentially affect the nature of the judgments.

 Axinella hispida Koltun 1959, pp. 196–199, fig. 156, pl. XXXVI, fig. 1; Sim et al. 1990, pp. 127–128, pl. 8, figs. 1, 2
 Description
(Figure 3 (a)) Body elongated, branching or lobate, size up to 9.5 cm in height. It is slightly narrowing downwards forming a short peduncle. Surface setose, markedly hispid, covered with a thin, pellucid aspicular dermal membrane. The consistency is quite strong and elastic. Colour ash-yellow or greenish yellow.
 Skeleton
(Figure 3 (b)) Plumose, formed by the thick ascending spicule tracts from which long styles radiate obliquely and penetrate the surface.
 Spicules
 (Figure 3 (c–e)) Long styles, dimensions: 1184.4–1836.6–2445 (n = 30) × 14.2–24.6– 33.2 µm (n = 30); thick styles, dimensions: 483.8–970–1914 (n = 50) × 18.4–39– 52.3 µm (n = 50); irregularly curved or flexuous oxeas, dimensions: 412.1–654.4–903 × 11.3–14.8– 20.2 µm (n = 20).
 Distribution
Bering Sea (near the Commander Islands), East China Sea (Cheju Island), west of Spitsbergen.
 Remarks
 This species is rather rarely found. After Koltun (1959) described two specimens collected near the Commander Islands, it was recorded only once, most likely wrongly, by Sim et al. (1990). Considering its spicules’ sizes and shapes, the sponge described by Sim from the East China Sea is closer to Axinella blanca (Koltun 1959).
In total nine specimens found at depths of 163–425 m were examined. The temperature and salinity in the bottom layer were 3.33–3.93°C and 35‰.
In contrast to description of spicules given by Koltun, the skeleton of each of the examined specimens contained single strongyles – derivatives of styles, both thick and long.

description: In the last decade, advancement in Artificial Intelligence attracted a lot of experts that lead to massive growth and advancement in all human life aspects. Therefore, one of the key fields to point at, which attracted a lot of attention and development lately, is Face Recognition. In recent years, Face Recognition tends to be one of the most widely used technologies in many different domains and workspaces, such as emotional recognition, security, health sector, marketing, and retail, etc. this approach will consist of an online system with real-time functionality (close to real-time), that will be responsible for the declaration of users to be recognized later. Based on the recognition results, the system will then grant the users the needed authentication. In this research, various different challenges related to the development and the use of Face Recognition, including the variations in light conditions, camera resolution, processing power, facial changes over time, number of users to be recognized, etc... During this work, “Viola and Jones” and “MTCNN” were used for face detection, and “FaceNet” was applied for facial features extraction. Also, similarity neural network (Similarity Net) has been created to regress similarity percent between user’s features’ vectors, beside it has been trained on user’s features by exploiting the Euclidian distance between embeddings. This approach was tested on a group of datasets - personal, Kaggle and LFW dataset. The tests returned 100% successful recognitions on personal and Kaggle dataset, and 99.5% on LFW dataset.

THE IMPACT OF COLLECTIVE BARGAINING ON FACULTY COMPENSATION IN HIGHER EDUCATION

description: This study focused on an examination of the impact of collective bargaining on faculty compensation primarily during the 1970s. Six research questions with accompanying hypotheses were set forth. The sample consisted of forty-five matched pairs of union and nonunion institutions. The matching process attempted to control for five major compensation-determining variables in order to isolate the effects of unionization. Changes in faculty compensation in dollars and percentage changes were tested for statistical significance using t tests and analyzed from the year immediately prior to six years following unionization. The data were examined by all faculty ranks combined, public and private institutions, AAUP categories, and individual academic ranks. The results showed that prior to unionization faculty compensation levels were not unusually low for those institutions that subsequently unionized. Second, faculty compensation at institutions with collective bargaining was significantly higher in the short-run but not in the long-run than at comparable nonunion institutions. Third, the impact of collective bargaining on faculty compensation did not differ significantly between public and private institutions. Fourth, the adoption of collective bargaining did not significantly change the faculty compensation structure among different types of institutions based on AAUP categories except for Category I institutions in the long-run. Fifth, the adoption of collective bargaining did not significantly change the compensation ranges across academic ranks with the exception of those faculty ranks below full professor in the short-run. Sixth, interrank compensation differentials between junior and senior faculty were not significantly reduced by unionization. Finally, less comprehensive two-year institutions demonstrated significant long-run percentage gains in compensation relative to more comprehensive four-year institutions. The major conclusion of the study was that the impact of collective bargaining on faculty compensation was short-run in nature. Thus, the academic marketplace appeared to be reasonably efficient in making compensation adjustments between union and nonunion institutions. Severaly early beliefs about collective bargaining were not supported such as the belief that compensation deprivation led to unionization and collective bargaining narrowed the compensation gap between junior and senior faculty.

description: The CMS experiment has been designed with a two-level trigger system: the Level-1 Trigger, implemented on custom-designed electronics, and the High Level Trigger, a streamlined version of the CMS offline reconstruction software running on a computer farm. During its second phase the LHC will reach a luminosity of $7.5\times10^{34}\,\textrm{cm}^{-2}\,\textrm{s}^{-1}$ with a pileup of 200 collisions, producing integrated luminosity greater than 3000 fb$^{-1}$ over the full experimental run. To fully exploit the higher luminosity, the CMS experiment will introduce a more advanced Level-1 Trigger and increase the full readout rate from 100 kHz to 750 kHz. CMS is designing an efficient data-processing hardware trigger (Level-1) that will include tracking information and high-granularity calorimeter information. The current conceptual system design is expected to take full advantage of advances in FPGA and link technologies over the coming years, providing a high-performance, low-latency system for large throughput and sophisticated data correlation across diverse sources. The higher luminosity, event complexity and input rate present an unprecedented challenge to the High Level Trigger, that aims to achieve a similar efficiency and rejection factor as today despite the higher pileup and more pure preselection. In this presentation we will discuss the ongoing studies and prospects for the online reconstruction and selection algorithms for the high-luminosity era.

description: We describe a model for s-wave collisions between ground state atoms in optical lattices, considering especially the limits of quasi-one and two dimensional axisymmetric harmonic confinement. When the atomic interactions are modelled by an s-wave Fermi-pseudopotential, the relative motion energy eigenvalues can easily be obtained. The results show that except for a bound state, the trap eigenvalues are consistent with one- and two- dimensional scattering with renormalized scattering amplitudes. For absolute scattering lengths large compared with the tightest trap width, our model predicts a novel bound state of low energy and nearly-isotropic wavefunction extending on the order of the tightest trap width.

description: We use a 27.6 deg$^2$ survey to measure the clustering of $gzK_s$-selected quiescent galaxies at $z\sim1.6$, focusing on ultra-massive quiescent galaxies. We find that $z\sim1.6$ Ultra-Massive Passively Evolving Galaxies (UMPEGs), which have $K_s(AB)<19.75$ (stellar masses of $M_{stars}$ $>\sim 10^{11.4}M_{\odot}$ and mean $$ = $10^{11.5}M_{\odot}$), cluster more strongly than any other known galaxy population at high redshift. Comparing their correlation length, $r_0 = 29.77 \pm 2.75$ $ h^{-1}$Mpc, with the clustering of dark matter halos in the Millennium XXL N-body simulation suggests that these $z\sim1.6$ UMPEGs reside in dark matter halos of mass $M_{h}\sim10^{14.1}h^{-1}M_{\odot}$. Such very massive $z\sim1.6$ halos are associated with the ancestors of $z\sim0$ massive galaxy clusters such as the Virgo and Coma clusters. Given their extreme stellar masses and lack of companions with comparable mass, we surmise that these UMPEGs could be the already-quenched central massive galaxies of their (proto)clusters. We conclude that with only a modest amount of further growth in their stellar mass, $z\sim1.6$ UMPEGs could be the progenitors of some of the massive central galaxies of present-day massive galaxy clusters observed to be already very massive and quiescent near the peak epoch of the cosmic star formation.

description: Importance: Use of Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAM) is a vital piece of information for practicing physicians, and community health clinics developing integrative medicine programs.Objective: To systematically review literature-based evidence about the most commonly used types of CAM by Hispanic patients, and to survey type of CAM familiarity, type of CAM interest, and barriers of CAM attitudes among providers at a Chicago FQHC.Data Sources: PubMed and a study reference list were searched for studies about the most commonly used types of CAM in Hispanic patients. Survey data was compiled from provider respondents.Study Selection: Descriptive studies with varying sample size and unassessed quality about all types of CAM use in Hispanics, but not about specific types of CAM use only, were reviewed.Data Extraction and Synthesis: One investigator independently read search titles, reviewed studies, and excluded certain reviewed studies to produce the resulting reviewed studies. Desired information from resulting studies was presented in a table and narrated in the results section. The survey was administered via SurveyMonkey and emailed to a provider listserv; data was manicured and displayed in Excel. No statistical hypothesis testing was conducted.Main Outcomes and Measures: Most common type of CAM used, prevalence of general CAM use, and reason for CAM use in Hispanics. Provider familiarity of and interest in types of CAM; physician attitudes towards CAM barriers.Results: Fifteen studies resulted from the review and exclusion process. Only one study focused on juvenile Hispanics. Sample size varied from 31 to 3,050. Twelve studies listed either herbs or supplements as the most common type of CAM used. Prevalence of CAM use ranged from 30% to 90%. Weight loss, pain, and type 2 diabetes were all mentioned as reasons for CAM use. Forty-six out of 252 providers responded to the survey. The majority of respondents were MDs with little prior education on CAM. Meditation/Relaxation was the most familiar, nutrition therapy was of most interest, and cost of care the biggest barrier for CAM referral, among providers.Conclusions and Relevance: A substantial number of Hispanics use CAM for various diseases, and among those that do, herbs and supplements are most often used. Providers have little prior education on CAM and their familiarity of and interest in types of CAM are different from what their Hispanic patients actually use.
THE IMPACT OF COLLECTIVE BARGAINING ON FACULTY COMPENSATION IN HIGHER EDUCATION

description: This study focused on an examination of the impact of collective bargaining on faculty compensation primarily during the 1970s. Six research questions with accompanying hypotheses were set forth. The sample consisted of forty-five matched pairs of union and nonunion institutions. The matching process attempted to control for five major compensation-determining variables in order to isolate the effects of unionization. Changes in faculty compensation in dollars and percentage changes were tested for statistical significance using t tests and analyzed from the year immediately prior to six years following unionization. The data were examined by all faculty ranks combined, public and private institutions, AAUP categories, and individual academic ranks. The results showed that prior to unionization faculty compensation levels were not unusually low for those institutions that subsequently unionized. Second, faculty compensation at institutions with collective bargaining was significantly higher in the short-run but not in the long-run than at comparable nonunion institutions. Third, the impact of collective bargaining on faculty compensation did not differ significantly between public and private institutions. Fourth, the adoption of collective bargaining did not significantly change the faculty compensation structure among different types of institutions based on AAUP categories except for Category I institutions in the long-run. Fifth, the adoption of collective bargaining did not significantly change the compensation ranges across academic ranks with the exception of those faculty ranks below full professor in the short-run. Sixth, interrank compensation differentials between junior and senior faculty were not significantly reduced by unionization. Finally, less comprehensive two-year institutions demonstrated significant long-run percentage gains in compensation relative to more comprehensive four-year institutions. The major conclusion of the study was that the impact of collective bargaining on faculty compensation was short-run in nature. Thus, the academic marketplace appeared to be reasonably efficient in making compensation adjustments between union and nonunion institutions. Severaly early beliefs about collective bargaining were not supported such as the belief that compensation deprivation led to unionization and collective bargaining narrowed the compensation gap between junior and senior faculty.

BANNATYNE'S RECATEGORIZATION OF THE WISC-R SUBTEST SCORES: INDICATIVE OF LEARNING DISABILITIES?
Creators: name: Glowa, Elizabeth Ann
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This study focused on whether Bannatyne's profile affects the learning efficiency in reading or math of learning disabled students. The sample of eighty children was obtained by sending letters to the parents of children in special classes for the learning disabled in a large, suburban school district. The WISC-R and achievement data, which were obtained from the students' records, were analyzed when the students were first placed and again three years later. In studying the relationship of Bannatyne's profile and learning efficiency, several questions were investigated. (1) Did a significant proportion of the sample display Bannatyne's profile? Using Chi-square analysis and confidence intervals, it was determined that the proportion of students who displayed Bannatyne's profile exceeded that which would have been expected by chance occurrence. However, this proportion never exceeded thirty-three percent. Thus Bannatyne's profile did not characterize the sample. (2) After three years, did the WISC-R scores change in such a way as to affect the stability of Bannatyne's profile? Using the Phi correlation coefficient, it was determined that Bannatyne's profile was not stable. (3) Did the Bannatyne Profile Present group differ in learning efficiency in reading or math from the Bannatyne Profile Absent group? Using t-tests of means, it was determined that there were not significant differences in the IQ's or learning efficiencies of the two groups. (4) Did the students who displayed Bannatyne's profile at both points in time differ in growth in learning efficiency from the students who displayed Bannatyne's profile at only one point in time or not at all? Using Analysis of Variance it was determined that there were no significant differences in the growth rates of the groups. In conclusion, Bannatyne's profile did not characterize the sample and was not indicative of diminished learning efficiency. In addition to the questions concerning Bannatyne's profile, the use of a mathematical formula for determining whether a student exhibited a severe discrepancy between potential and achievement was examined. Initially only twenty-nine percent of the sample exhibited a severe discrepancy; three years later fifty-two percent did. The problems inherent in the formula and the implications for its use are discussed.

description: Purpose: Conducting in-depth grammatical analyses based on language samples can be time consuming. Developmental Sentence Scoring (DSS) and the Index of Productive Syntax (IPSyn) analyses provide detailed information regarding the grammatical profiles of children and can be conducted using free computer-based software. Here, we provide a tutorial to support clinicians’ use of computer-based analyses to aid diagnosis and develop and monitor treatment goals.Method: We analyzed language samples of a 5-year-old with developmental language disorder and an adolescent with Down syndrome using computer-based software, Computerized Language Analysis. We focused on DSS and IPSyn analyses. The tutorial includes step-by-step procedures for conducting the analyses. We also illustrate how the analyses may be used to assist in diagnosis, develop treatment goals focused on grammatical targets, and monitor progress on these treatment goals.Conclusion: Clinicians should consider using Computerized Language Analysis’s IPSyn and DSS analyses to support grammatical language assessments used to aid diagnosis, develop treatment goals, and monitor progress on these treatment goals.

description: A ecologia do fogo é uma disciplina que visa estudar e entender a dinâmica do fogo nos ambientes. Eventualidades com ocorrência do fogo no Pantanal podem promover consequências no bioma. O objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar uma análise bibliométrica acerca dos estudos realizados sobre o uso do fogo no Pantanal com referência as indexações na base de dados SCOPUS. Foram analisadas quatro características que abordam sistematicamente a pesquisa, sendo eles: (i) dados gerais e informativos dos documentos indexados; (ii) dados conceituais de ocorrência das palavras; (iii) dados conceituais de co-ocorrência das palavras por mapa temático; (iv) análise de ocorrência anual das palavras, com intuito de caracterização da importância do estudo. Com base nas abordagens adquiridas na pesquisa, a preocupação com o Pantanal é de crescente consideração a respeito da conservação ambiental, uma vez que o ambiente não possui estrutura para sobreviver em curto prazo com a atribuição das queimadas.

description: The radio source 4C12.50 has often been suggested to be a prime candidate for the link between ultraluminous infrared galaxies and young radio galaxies. A VLBI study of the neutral hydrogen in the nuclear regions of this object shows that most of the gas detected close to the systemic velocity is associated with an off-nuclear cloud (~50 to 100 pc from the radio core) with a column density of ~10^22 T_spin/100 K) cm^(-2) and an HI mass of a few times 10^5 to 10^6 M_sun. We consider a number of possibilities to explain the results. In particular, we discus the possibility that this cloud indicates the presence of a rich and clumpy interstellar medium in the centre, likely left over from the merger that triggered the activity and that this medium influences the growth of the radio source. The location of the cloud -- at the edge of the northern radio jet/lobe -- suggests that the radio jet might be interacting with a gas cloud. This interaction could be responsible for bending the young radio jet. The velocity profile of the gas is relatively broad (~150$ km/s) and we interpret this as kinematical evidence for interaction of the radio plasma with the cloud. We also consider the model where the cloud is part of a broader circumnuclear structure. Only a limited region of this structure would have sufficient background radio brightness and large enough column depth in neutral gas to obtain detectable HI absorption against the counterjet. The VLBI study of the neutral hydrogen in 4C12.50 suggests that HI detected near the systemic velocity (as it is often the case in radio galaxies) may not necessarily be connected with a circumnuclear disk or torus (as is very often assumed) but instead could be a tracer of the large-scale medium that surrounds the active nucleus and that may influence the growth of the young radio source.
