A case study exploration into the lived experience of a client receiving a positive missing experience in a therapeutic session
Creators: name: Westwood, Dianne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study explored the meaning of receiving a positive missing experience during therapy, from the perspective of a client. It was undertaken to expand the theoretical understanding and practice of the intervention. A single case study, with a hermeneutic approach to data analysis was used. A semi-structured interview was conducted with one participant who had received a positive missing experience during a Therapeutic Enactment, (Westwood & Wilensky, 2005), and who had a videotape of the session. The phenomenon of the positive missing experience itself is only one part of the participant's complex, experiential therapeutic session; a session which was enacted within a group. The interview was analyzed using van Marien's (1990) "Methodological Structure of Human Science," creating seven themes that represent the client's experience. A schematic, containing the themes and their relationship to each other, was developed. The themes within the schematic are: longing/receiving, things start moving, alchemy of repair, embodied sense of an intact core, vantage point, things start falling into place, and insight comes. The schematic suggests a flow of experience as well as progression and a sequence over time. While each theme is presented as an important or essential feature of the experience, they could not be easily separated from one another. Each theme arose as distinct from the others.

description: We study the properties of fundamental physical constants using the threefold classification of dimensional constants proposed by J.-M. L{é}vy-Leblond: constants of objects (masses, etc.), constants of phenomena (coupling constants), and "universal constants" (such as $c$ and $\hbar$). We show that all of the known "natural" systems of units contain at least one non-universal constant. We discuss the possible consequences of such non-universality, e.g., the dependence of some of these systems on the number of spatial dimensions. In the search for a "fully universal" system of units, we propose a set of constants that consists of $c$, $\hbar$, and a length parameter and discuss its origins and the connection to the possible kinematic groups discovered by L{é}vy-Leblond and Bacry. Finally, we give some comments about the interpretation of these constants.

description: We study global topological defects in the Jacobson-Corley model which breaks Lorentz symmetry and involves up to fourth order derivatives. There is a window in the parameter space in which no solution exists. Otherwise, different profiles are allowed for the same values of the parameters. For a scale of Lorentz violation much higher than the scale of gauge symmetry breaking, the energy densities are higher, of the same order or smaller than in the usual case for domain walls, cosmic strings and hedgehogs respectively. Possible cosmological implications are suggested.

title: The ‘rule of the recognised helm’: How does European Union membership impact upon UK Parliamentary sovereignty?
Creators: name: Mcconalogue, James
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2018

description: This study examines the way in which European Union (EU) membership has impacted upon historically precedented understandings of UK parliamentary sovereignty. The position adopted is critical of other approaches within a neo-Diceyan, popular sovereigntist and common law paradigm which have accorded too little significance to the past historical precedents defining Parliament’s sovereignty and its institutional inter-relationships. By overlooking historical constitutional forms, the gravity of the impact of EU membership on the UK constitution has often been misunderstood by those approaches. By adopting a broadly political constitutionalist position, the thesis proposes an alternative explanation of UK parliamentary sovereignty as the ‘rule of the recognised helm’. It seeks to achieve that objective by adapting the approaches of the ‘rule of recognition’ while incorporating the medieval, political view of sovereignty as operating under the ‘helm’ of the ship of state, responsible for the government of the realm. The thesis establishes that the operation of the ‘rule of the recognised helm’ is dependent upon a uniquely conditioned political history characterised by eight crucial historically precedented ‘historical constitutional forms’ defining UK parliamentary sovereignty, from the thirteenth century through to the contemporary Parliament. The main contention is that under EU membership, successive governments, through Parliaments, have adopted practices which whilst preserving the fundamental rule, are at odds with those past constitutional precedents. Three key EU case studies – of the Financial Transactions Tax, of the freedom of movement of persons and of the Working Time Directive – are employed as evidence that the UK’s helm of state has, since 1973, incorporated EU institutions which unsettles those political precedents of parliamentary sovereignty. On the other hand, the fourth case study, of Parliament’s place since the UK’s holding of the EU Referendum in 2016 constitutes a new constitutional resettlement, a realignment of Parliament with historical precedent and its sovereignty.

description: We present new yields of 26Al from Wolf--Rayet stellar winds based on rotating stellar models which account well for numerous observed properties of massive stars. We study the impacts on the yields of a change of initial mass, metallicity and initial rotation velocity. We also consider the effects of a change of mass loss rates during the Wolf--Rayet phase. We show that for surface rotation velocities during the core H--burning phase matching to the observed ones, the quantity of 26Al ejected by a star of a given initial mass and metallicity is roughly doubled when the effects of rotation are taken into account. The metallicity dependence of the yield is, on the other hand, very similar to that obtained from non--rotating models. We estimate that at least about 20% to 50% (e.g. 0.6 --1.4 Msun) of the live 26Al detected in the Milky--Way originates from Wolf--Rayet stellar winds. We show the importance of a good knowledge of the present metallicity gradient and star formation rate in our galaxy for modeling both the variation of the 26Al surface density with the galactocentric distance and the global contribution of the Wolf--Rayet stellar winds to the present galactic mass of 26Al.

description: Long-term behavioral and health risk factors constitute a primary focus of research on the etiology of chronic diseases. Yet, identifying critical time-windows during which risk factors have the strongest impact on disease risk is challenging. To assess the trajectory of association of an exposure history with an outcome, the weighted cumulative exposure index (WCIE) has been proposed, with weights reflecting the relative importance of exposures at different times. However, WCIE is restricted to a complete observed error-free exposure whereas exposures are often measured with intermittent missingness and error. Moreover, it rarely explores exposure history that is very distant from the outcome as usually sought in life-course epidemiology. We extend the WCIE methodology to (i) exposures that are intermittently measured with error, and (ii) contexts where the exposure time-window precedes the outcome time-window using a landmark approach. First, the individual exposure history up to the landmark time is estimated using a mixed model that handles missing data and error in exposure measurement, and the predicted complete error-free exposure history is derived. Then the WCIE methodology is applied to assess the trajectory of association between the predicted exposure history and the health outcome collected after the landmark time. In our context, the health outcome is a longitudinal marker analyzed using a mixed model. A simulation study first demonstrates the correct inference obtained with this approach. Then, applied to the Nurses' Health Study (19,415 women) to investigate the association between BMI history (collected from midlife) and subsequent cognitive decline after age 70. In conclusion, this approach, easy to implement, provides a flexible tool for studying complex dynamic relationships and identifying critical time windows while accounting for exposure measurement errors.

Interpretation of abundance ratios

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper we discuss abundance ratios and their relation to stellar nucleosynthesis and other parameters of chemical evolution models, reviewing and clarifying the correct use of the observed abundance ratios in several astrophysical contests. In particular, we start from the well known fact that abundance ratios depend on stellar yields, initial mass function and stellar lifetimes and we show, by means of specific examples, that in some cases it is not correct to infer constraints on the contributions from different SN types (Ia, II), and particularly on different sets of yields, in the absence of a complete chemical evolution model taking into account stellar lifetimes. In spite of the fact that some of these results should be well known, we believe that it is useful to discuss the meaning of abundance ratios in the light of severel recent claims based upon an incorrect interpretation of observed abundance ratios. In particular, the procedure, often used in the recent literature, of deriving directly conclusions about stellar nucleosynthesis, just by relating abundance ratios to yield ratios, implicitly assumes the instantaneous recycling approximation (I.R.A.). This approximation is clearly not correct when one analyzes the contributions of SNIa relative to SNII as functions of cosmic time. In this paper we show that the uncertainty which arises from adopting this oversimplified procedure in a variety of astrophysical objects, such as elliptical galaxies, the intracluster medium and high redshift objects, does not allow us to draw any firm conclusion, and that the differences between abundance ratios predicted by models with I.R.A. and models with detailed stellar lifetimes is of the same order as the differences between different sets of yields.

description: We introduce a new technique for the study of the distribution of modular symbols, which we apply to congruence subgroups of Bianchi groups. We prove that if $K$ is a quadratic imaginary number field of class number one and $\mathcal{O}_K$ its ring of integers, then for certain congruence subgroups of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathcal{O}_K)$, the periods of a cusp form of weight two obey asymptotically a normal distribution. These results are specialisations from the more general setting of quotient surfaces of cofinite Kleinian groups, where our methods apply. We avoid the method of moments. Our new insight is to use the behaviour of the smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian for spaces twisted by modular symbols. Our approach also recovers the first and the second moment of the distribution.

description: The Ullersma model for the damped harmonic oscillator is coupled to the quantised electromagnetic field. All material parameters and interaction strengths are allowed to depend on position. The ensuing Hamiltonian is expressed in terms of canonical fields, and diagonalised by performing a normal-mode expansion. The commutation relations of the diagonalising operators are in agreement with the canonical commutation relations. For the proof we replace all sums of normal modes by complex integrals with the help of the residue theorem. The same technique helps us to explicitly calculate the quantum evolution of all canonical and electromagnetic fields. We identify the dielectric constant and the Green function of the wave equation for the electric field. Both functions are meromorphic in the complex frequency plane. The solution of the extended Ullersma model is in keeping with well-known phenomenological rules for setting up quantum electrodynamics in an absorptive and spatially inhomogeneous dielectric. To establish this fundamental justification, we subject the reservoir of independent harmonic oscillators to a continuum limit. The resonant frequencies of the reservoir are smeared out over the real axis. Consequently, the poles of both the dielectric constant and the Green function unite to form a branch cut. Performing an analytic continuation beyond this branch cut, we find that the long-time behaviour of the quantised electric field is completely determined by the sources of the reservoir. Through a Riemann-Lebesgue argument we demonstrate that the field itself tends to zero, whereas its quantum fluctuations stay alive. We argue that the last feature may have important consequences for application of entanglement and related processes in quantum devices.

Counsellors' experience of the ethical dimensions of social justice advocacy
Creators: name: Johnson, Katherine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In recent years, there has been a call within the counselling profession to expand our roles to include social justice advocacy work. This call seems to be based in ethical considerations regarding how to best to do good for, and not harm, our clients; however there has been no research regarding the ethical issues that may arise from such a role. In this study, I explored the following question: How do community counsellors experience the ethical issues surrounding their practice of social justice advocacy? Data were gathered through individual interviews using the interpretive description methodology. Data from 10 participants (5 men and 5 women) were analyzed using elements of analytic frameworks proposed by Miles and Huberman (1994) and Knafl and Webster (1988). A set of "social justice values" which included solidarity, equality, justice, taking action for change, non-neutrality, and questioning the status quo emerged, which impacted the ethical decision making of participants, who viewed their social justice orientation as part of ensuring beneficence. Ethical issues were often the motivation for, rather than the result of social justice advocacy. Participants struggled with barriers to ethical practice within their professional discourse and places of employment that made them feel "part of the system" of oppression. Participants identified several ethical dimensions of social justice advocacy work which included ensuring client autonomy and fully informed consent in advocacy decisions, equalizing power in client-counsellor relationships, and identification with clients' feelings of marginalization, which could contribute to burnout. Many concerns were raised regarding areas of counsellor training, practice and regulation which may contribute to injustice and unethical practice, and these counsellors endeavored to develop a practice and lifestyle that was congruent with their social justice values.

title: Digital Government Systems: Tackling The Legacy Problem Through A Game-Based Approach To Business Requirements Analysis
Creators: name: Alexandrova, Assia E.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2018

description: Government agency reliance on legacy systems is problematic: they are costly to maintain, difficult to integrate with and they hinder innovation. However, the replacement of legacy systems is not a straightforward endeavor, and it often results in technology substitution that is not accompanied by business process change. The focus of this dissertation is on the phenomenon of legacy system replication wherein the requirements for applications replacing outdated technologies mimic legacy features and reflect status quo operational processes that have been historically shaped by the legacy system itself. This problem is referred to throughout the dissertation as the “legacy problem.” The dissertation investigates its roots and proposes an approach to overcome it. Specifically, a mixed method research approach is taken, including a survey of public sector practitioners to explore the extent of the legacy problem, and a series of semi-structured interviews with government information technology and management professionals to delve into the dynamics of legacy system replacement projects. Findings indicate that the legacy problem often stems from a lack of critical analysis of business requirements and the desire to minimize the risks associated with organizational change, which often result in missed opportunities for digital government innovation. As a consequence, the dissertation proposes a candidate approach to deal with the legacy problem in the development of a requirements game (RE-PROVO) which supports requirements discussions structured around the themes of legacy (or heritage) preservation and innovation. The game is evaluated by local government practitioners through several iterations and their feedback is analysed to gauge the potential utility of the approach. The results indicate that with a streamlined user interface and accentuated game elements RE-PROVO can be a valuable and effective tool for requirements analysis in legacy system replacement projects.

title: A study of seven looked after primary school children
Creators: name: Hrsburgh, Jacqueline
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2017

description: Abstract This study explores the experiences of seven looked after children in two Scottish primary schools. The rationale behind this study is that if looked after children could be supported effectively during their time in primary school then they may be more likely to remain engaged with secondary school and increase their chances of educational success. Literature on looked after children has tended to highlight the barriers they experience in education. This thesis examines ways in which these barriers may be overcome. The main research question asked is: ‘What practices and approaches might be used to support looked after children to engage in learning?’ Subsidiary questions explore how looked after children are regarded by teachers, including the impact that the term ‘looked after’ may have on expectations, and what looked after children are able to tell us about the support they find most helpful. This dissertation draws on socio-cultural theories of learning in order to identify perceptions underpinning support provided to looked after children. The wider theoretical framework incorporates resilience, inclusion, collaborative learning and children’s voice. This qualitative research utilises case study methods. It explores data gathered from looked after children (N=12), their carers (N=6) including, relatives, foster carers and staff in a children’s home and school staff (N=10) comprising teachers, support staff and members of school management teams. Through the use of individual case studies an insight is offered into the support needs of a small group of looked after children. The main findings reveal that practitioners provide support in diverse ways. However, a common theme permeating the findings is the importance of establishing relationships prior to considering appropriate materials or programmes. In addition, the views of children captured in this study emphasise the importance of supporting the development of agency in those who are looked after. The conclusions presented include recommendations for a change in focus of staff development activities for those supporting looked after children.

Down-Syndrom
Masterarbeit

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit steht das soziologisch-heilpädagogische Denken im Fokus. Es stellt sich die Frage, wie die Gesellschaft mit Menschen umgeht, welche den gesellschaftlichen Normen und Erwartungen nicht genügen. Bilder von Menschen werden entworfen und Darstellungen konstruiert, die ins zeitgeistliche Gesellschaftsbild zu passen scheinen oder eben einen Ausschluss erzeugen können. Was dabei beim Einzelnen ankommt, sind individuelle Wahrnehmungen, welche jedoch stark von den Medien beeinflusst sind. Die Medien sind versucht, Komplexes auf wenige Merkmale zu reduzieren. Dies lässt sich aber durch den gegebenen Raum für ethische Diskussionen und durch den Einbezug verschiedener Meinungen und Sichtweisen kompensieren. Zeitungsartikel als Forschungsgegenstand für einen sozial-ethischen Diskurs über den Umgang mit Normabweichungen zeigen sich als geeignetes Material, um eine qualitative Inhaltsanalyse nach Mayring (2015) durchzuführen. Als Untersuchungsbeispiel wird das Down-Syndrom verwendet, da es der Gesellschaft deutlich und bekannt ist. Es ist auch durch das äussere Erscheinungsbild erkennbar und somit etwas vertrauter als andere Behinderungsformen. Einen weiteren Grund zur Entscheidung für das Down- Syndrom als Untersuchungsbeispiel geben die aktuellen Themen, in denen es auftritt. Als Beispiele können die Pränataldiagnostik, die Präimplantationsdiagnostik und die Integration in die Regelschulen, wobei die Kinder mit Down-Syndrom scheinbar als Aushängeschild dienen, genannt werden. Die Diskussion behandelt diese Kontexte und thematischen Bereiche, verbunden mit entstehenden Darstellungen von Menschen mit Down-Syndrom, Einstellungen und gesellschaftlichen Werten. Die Darstellungen sind irgendwo zwischen Akzeptanz, Verminderung und Verhinderung einzuordnen – diese drei Eckpunkte dienen der Orientierung im Umgang mit Normabweichungen und unterstützen die Beantwortung der Fragestellung.
The view from a Wigner bubble

description: In a recent no-go theorem [Bong et al, Nature Physics (2020)], we proved that the predictions of unitary quantum mechanics for an extended Wigner's friend scenario are incompatible with any theory satisfying three metaphysical assumptions, the conjunction of which we call "Local Friendliness": Absoluteness of Observed Events, Locality and No-Superdeterminism. In this paper (based on an invited talk for the QBism jubilee at the 2019 Vaxjo conference) I discuss the implications of this theorem for QBism, as seen from the perspective of experimental metaphysics. I argue that the key distinction between QBism and realist interpretations of quantum mechanics is best understood in terms of their adherence to different theories of truth: the pragmatist versus the correspondence theories. I argue that a productive pathway to resolve the measurement problem within a pragmatist view involves taking seriously the perspective of quantum betting agents, even those in what I call a "Wigner bubble". The notion of reality afforded by QBism, I propose, will correspond to the invariant elements of any theory that has pragmatic value to all rational agents -- that is, the elements that are invariant upon changes of agent perspectives. The classical notion of `event' is not among those invariants, even when those events are observed by some agent. Neither are quantum states. Nevertheless, I argue that far from solipsism, a personalist view of quantum states is an expression of its precise opposite: Copernicanism.

description: We present a trigonometric parallax for the nearby star SCR1845--6357, an extremely red high proper motion object discovered by Hambly et al. (2004) and identified via accurate photoelectric photometry and spectroscopy to be an M8.5 dwarf with a photometric parallax of $4.6\pm0.8$ pc by Henry et al. (2004). Using methods similar to those described in Deacon & Hambly (2001) we have derived a full astrometric solution from SuperCOSMOS scans of eight survey and non--survey Schmidt photographs held in the United Kingdom Schmidt Telescope Unit plate library. We calculate the trigonometric parallax to be $π=282\pm23$ mas yielding a distance of $3.5\pm0.3$ pc which implies an absolute K$_{s}$ magnitude of 10.79. This distance calculation places SCR1845--6357 as the 16th closest stellar system to the Sun.

description: Biz bilamizki maktabgacha yoshdagi bola savodxonlikning asosiy ko‘nikmalaridan har kunlik faoliyatida foydalanishi mumkin bo‘lgan yoshdir. Shu boisdan bolaga savod o‘rgatish, uni jalb qilish uchun har kuni savodxonlikka oid faoliyatlarni olib boorish lozim. Chunki bola harflar va yozma so‘zlar bilan qanchalik ko‘p uchrashsa, uning til qobiliyatlari shunchalik kuchli bo‘ladi. U har bir hatti-harakatini faoliyat davomida duch kelgan harflar va so`zlar bilan bog`laydi. Ushbu maqolada maktabgacha yoshdagi bolalarga savodxonlik ko‘nikmalarini to‘liq oshirishga yordam beradigan turli xil usullar haqida so‘z boradi.

Variation of hadron masses in nuclear matter in the relativistic Hartree approximation

description: We study the modification of hadron masses due to the vacuum polarization using the chiral sigma model, which is extended to generate the $ω$ meson mass by the sigma condensation in the vacuum in the same way as the nucleon mass. The results obtained in the chiral sigma model are compared with those obtained in the Walecka model which includes $σ$ and $ω$ mesons in a non-chiral fashion. It is shown that both the nucleon mass and the $ω$ meson mass decrease in nuclear medium, while the $σ$ meson mass increases at finite density in the chiral sigma model.

description: We discuss similarities and differences between systems of interacting players maximizing their individual payoffs and particles minimizing their interaction energy. Long-run behavior of stochastic dynamics of spatial games with multiple Nash equilibria is analyzed. In particular, we construct an example of a spatial game with three strategies, where stochastic stability of Nash equilibria depends on the number of players and the kind of dynamics.

"Winner takes it all": strongest node rule for evolution of scale free networks

description: We study a novel model for evolution of complex networks. We introduce information filtering for reduction of the number of available nodes to a randomly chosen sample, as stochastic component of evolution. New nodes are attached to the nodes that have maximal degree in the sample, which is a deterministic component of network evolution process. This fact is a novel for evolution of scale free networks and depicts a possible new route for modeling network growth. We present both simulational and theoretical results for network evolution. The obtained degree distributions exhibit an obvious power-law behavior in the middle with the exponential cut off in the end. This highlights the essential characteristics of information filtering in the network growth mechanisms.

Xystosomus gruti

description: The gruti group sclerite is also found well developed in all members of the genera Bembidion (except where secondarily reduced, for example in the vile group) and Asaphidion. Externally, the members of the gruti group are characterized by the following combination of characteristics: large eyes; large and strongly developed carinae posterolaterally on the pronotum; transverse pronotum wider than head across eyes; broadly explanate sides of the pronotum and elytra; presence of two pairs of lateral setigerous pores on the pronotum (except Xystosomus negrei); sulcate prosternal process; fully developed flight wings; and relatively large body size (some of the largest members of Tachyina). Besides the combination above, many species of this group have members with iridescent or metallic green dorsal surfaces (the only Tachyina with metallic coloration) and deeply engraved, punctate elytral striae. Presently representing this group are 16 species with a combined range (Figure 69) extending from southern Mexico to southern Brazil.

The retirement opportunity : understanding positive psychological change in later life
Creators: name: Housser, Sarah Farris
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this study was to explore the experience of people who report positive psychological change following retirement in order to better understand the nature and process of this change. Using qualitative interpretive description methodology, semi-structured interviews were tape recorded, transcribed, analyzed for themes and interpreted for clinical application. This study found that following retirement the nine men and women aged 58-75 changed profoundly, and in ways that defy stereotypes about old age as a time of stagnation and decline. Adults whose career was characterized by discipline and responsibility became more playful and relaxed. They experienced an increased awareness, understanding and acceptance of the path their life had taken, including acknowledgement of mistakes and regret and responsibility for their life going forward. They experienced changes to limiting patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving, marked by increased flexibility, humility and autonomy. There were a number of similarities in how this group approached the transition to retirement. These cannot be conclusively linked to the changes participants experienced; however in looking at what was common to how they approached retirement, one may reasonably draw some inferences about approach to retirement and the outcome of change and growth. From this exemplary group of people we may derive best practices about managing retirement that can be brought to a broader group by way of retirement planning resources, counselling interventions and human resource policy and practice.
Growth of matter density perturbations in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: Recently, a novel Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in four dimensions has been introduced [Phys. Rev. Lett. 124 (2020) 081301]. We will investigate cosmological consequences of this model in details. We will consider linear matter density perturbations and also estimate relevant modified gravity parameters. Specially we will concentrate on the growth rate of non-relativistic matter perturbations on top of FRW geometry and show that for a narrow range of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant, observational data will be satisfied. In this paper, it is shown that for enough large values of the coupling constant, the suggested $σ_8$ will become greater than $Λ$CDM value.
