Motivational influences on feedback processing during learning
Creators: name: Swanson, Samantha DePasque
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Feedback is a valuable tool used by educators, clinicians, and others to facilitate learning. However, the extent to which feedback shapes changes in knowledge and behavior may be influenced by the affective salience of the feedback, which can vary depending on one’s goals and expectations for learning. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), I conducted three experiments to examine the role of the striatum as a potential neural mediator of such motivational influences on learning. This dissertation unites two disparate lines of research: the cognitive neuroscience of reinforcement learning and the social psychology of achievement motivation, to uncover the neural processes by which achievement goals influence learning. Converging evidence from behavioral and cognitive neuroscience has characterized the striatum as part of a learning system that uses positive and negative consequences to reinforce advantageous behaviors. Its responses to positive and negative outcomes are modulated by factors that increase or decrease the motivational significance of the outcomes, making it a prime candidate for biasing learning on the basis of achievement motivation. My three dissertation studies used behavioral methods inspired by the motivation literature to investigate the motivational effects of expectations, beliefs, and values on the striatal processing of performance-related feedback during learning. I observed that learning can be enhanced or diminished through the manipulation of motivationally relevant expectations, values, and beliefs that either increase or attenuate striatal responses to feedback.

description: A gas bubble sitting at a liquid-gas interface can burst following the rupture of the thin liquid film separating it from the ambient, owing to the large surface energy of the resultant cavity. This bursting bubble forms capillary waves, a Worthington jet, and subsequent droplets for a Newtonian liquid medium. However, rheological properties of the liquid medium like elasto-viscoplasticity can greatly affect these dynamics. Using direct numerical simulations, this study exemplifies how the complex interplay between elasticity (in terms of elastic stress relaxation) and yield stress influences the transient interfacial phenomena of bursting bubbles. We investigate how bursting dynamics depends on capillary, elastic, and yield stresses by exploring the parameter space of the Deborah number $De$ (dimensionless relaxation time of elastic stresses) and the plastocapillary number $\mathcal{J}$ (dimensionless yield-stress of the medium), delineating four distinct characteristic behaviours. Overall, we observe a non-monotonic effect of elastic stress relaxation on the jet development while plasticity of the elasto-viscoplastic medium is shown to affect primarily the jet evolution only at faster relaxation times (low $De$). The role of elastic stresses on jet development is elucidated with the support of energy budgets identifying different modes of energy transfer within the elasto-viscoplastic medium. The effects of elasticity on the initial progression of capillary waves and droplet formation are also studied. In passing, we study the effects of solvent-polymer-viscosity ratio on bursting dynamics and show that polymer viscosity can increase the jet thickness apart from reducing the maximum height of the jet.

Juvenile offender reentry in an urban setting
Creators: name: Sytsma, Victoria Ann
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: The current study aimed to determine the extent to which a juvenile reentry program consisting of intensive supervision and collaboration between service providers was able to increase the amount of ‘time to failure’ and decrease the number of ‘days in custody’ for program participants when compared to a historical comparison group. This was done by using a quasi-experimental design, coupled with stratified propensity score matching to ensure group equivalency. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression survival analyses along with t-tests found that survival likelihood was higher for the comparison group. It was also found that the rate of return to custody was substantially hastened for the treatment group, and the risk of failure climbed during the study period for both groups. The risk of failure also climbed when the treatment was combined with a court-mandated substance abuse intervention. The treatment group was however found to be more likely to receive education, and substance abuse and anger management treatments; as well as spend less time in custody upon failure. The above findings are likely due to treatment subjects being supervised more intensively, with non-compliance more likely to be recorded and acted upon – particularly with regard to failure to attend substance abuse treatment programs. Findings may also be due to a lack of adherence to principles central to the risk-need-responsivity approach to community supervision. Policy implications include the need to avoid unnecessary court mandated treatments; the need to further explore the use of collaborative approaches to supervision with a larger dosage to ensure access to essential treatments, while simultaneously excluding in this process the potentially harsher responses to non-compliance that seem to come with increased supervision; and the need for criminal justice agencies to collect more incident-based information for stronger evaluations of future programming.

description: In 2012 the New Jersey peregrine falcon population remained nearly steady at 26 known pairs, with above-average nesting success. Fourteen pairs on towers and buildings continued to be the core of the nesting population, producing 34 young, for a productivity rate of 2.43 young per active nest. Three pairs were known to occupy territories in natural cliff habitat in northeastern NJ, down two from 2010; a fourth pair listed as territorial in 2011 was not tracked. Two of the three pairs were successful in fledging young (4 and 1, respectively), while a third pair showed no sign of hatching or fledging young. Of seven pairs on bridges, six were known to have produced 14 young, for a rate of 2.00 young/active nest. We could not confirm successful fledging at one bridge where nesting was discovered for the first time. We classified two pairs of the NJ total as territorial: one pair included a one-year-old female, too young to lay eggs.
Controls affecting methane fluxes in restored and natural tidal wetlands
Creators: name: Tripathee, Rajan
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Natural wetlands emit one third of global methane (CH4), the second most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide (CO2). However, there is a huge uncertainty about regional and global CH4 emission estimates, because of the estimation of CH4 emissions for large areas based on the CH4 flux measurement made in highly heterogeneous, poorly mapped small areas. But, within a small area of wetland, there can be a huge spatial variation in CH4 flux due to spatial heterogeneity. Therefore, for better understanding of CH4 dynamics of a wetland, CH4 flux measurement should be made in a variety of microsites of a wetland covering different scales, vegetation, and heterogeneity of the sites. Our two-year CH4 flux measurements from two microsites from each of three wetlands of New Jersey Meadowlands will help to refine CH4 budget of low salinity marshes, which have a large uncertainty about their CH4 budget. The annual CH4 flux in a restored high marsh site varied from 1.8 (Spartina patens marsh) - 26.6 (Phragmites australis marsh) g CH4 m-2 yr-1. The S. alterniflora marsh and mud flat area of another restored low marsh, emitted 15.6 and 7.5 g CH4 m-2 yr-1, respectively. The annual emission of CH4 for a S. patens marsh and a P. australis marsh at a natural high marsh site were 2.7 and 12.6 g CH4 m-2 yr-1, respectively. We also investigated relationships between CH4 flux and various physical factors including air and soil temperature, net radiation, and vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Presence of most of the belowground biomasses close to the soil surface suggests that most of the effect of belowground biomass on CH4 dynamics occurs close to soil and atmosphere interface. Investigations of belowground biomass distribution, root and rhizome characteristics as well as leaf area index (LAI), in this study aid modeling CH4 and other greenhouse gas transport. There was higher CH4 emission during incoming tide than during outgoing tide in a mud flat microsite; however, we did not find a relationship between tidal water depth difference and CH4 flux in vegetated areas. The weak, but positive relationship between CH4 flux and VPD in vegetated areas suggest stomatal control on CH4 flux.
Genital stimulation, imagery, and orgasm in women
Creators: name: Wise, Nan

description: The main questions addressed in my dissertation are: 1) how does fMRI- measured activity of the brain respond to physical versus imagined stimulation of the genitals, and 2) as the brain activity progresses from response to genital stimulation through orgasm to its resolution, how does the regional activity change?  These questions are addressed in the form of two studies: 1) Activation of sensory and other brain regions in response to imagined versus physical genital stimulation, and 2) Brain regional activation upon transition to self- and partner-induced orgasm in women. The first study developed from a genital sensory mapping study (Komisaruk, Wise et al, 2011) in which our control condition revealed the intriguing serendipitous finding that just imagining genital or nipple stimulation activated the same regions of the genital sensory cortex as did actual tactile stimulation of these body regions. We extended this surprising finding by focusing on a comparison between tactile versus imagined stimulation of the nipple and clitoris. We designed two additional conditions -- imagined dildo stimulation versus imagined speculum stimulation -- to investigate possible differences in erotic versus non-erotic imagery. The present findings provide evidence that imagery activates brain regions implicated in bodily sensation, orgasm, and reward, some of which overlap with, and others that are different from, the brain regions that respond to tactile self-stimulation, e.g., paracentral lobule (the “genital sensory cortex”) and the prefrontal cortex, respectively.  The second study addressed a major discrepancy in the literature regarding whether frontal and temporal cortical regions are activated (Komisaruk et al., 2004; 2005) or deactivated (Georgiadis et al., 2006; 2009) during orgasm. In addition to the different methods used (fMRI versus PET, respectively), a major procedural difference was that genital self-stimulation was employed in our fMRI studies while genital partner-applied stimulation was used in the PET studies. In an attempt to resolve the discrepancy, in the present study, we compared the regional brain activity observed during self- versus the partner- induced orgasm conditions. We found no deactivation of frontal or temporal regions during self- or partner stimulation-induced orgasm. Neither were there significant regional differences in activity between the self- and partner stimulation-induced orgasms. Consequently, we combined the data from the self-stimulation and partner-stimulation-induced orgasm groups. This analysis revealed widespread activation throughout the brain, including primary sensory, motor, sensory-motor integration and reward regions, whose distribution pattern changed in sequence, leading up to, during, and after orgasm.

description: We present possible ground-state structures of two-component atomic Fermi gases with repulsive interactions in a thin spherical shell geometry by implementing a self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. The system exhibits a miscible-immiscible transition from a homogeneous mixture to two-chunk phase separation as the interaction strength crosses a critical value. While the critical value is relatively insensitive to population imbalance for equal-mass mixtures, it decreases with the mass ratio when mass-imbalance is present. The interaction may be tuned by the two-body scattering length or the radius of the sphere, thereby allowing the system to cross the transition by varying different parameters. When the atoms on the sphere are rotating, three-chunk sandwich structures emerge in mass-imbalanced mixtures as a consequence of maximal angular momentum along the rotation axis. Some indications of geometric effects and possible experimental implications are also discussed.

A field theoretic approach to roughness corrections of Casimir energies
Creators: name: Wu, Hua-Yao
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: A systematic field theoretic description of the surface roughness corrections to the Casimir effect is developed. I use the multiple-scattering formalism. The Casimir energy is expressed in terms of the free Green's function and single-body scattering matrix. Finite temperature corrections to the Casimir force are obtained by Matsubara's formalism. The leading thermal corrections at high and low temperatures are presented and discussed. A statistical description of surface roughness is given and I construct the generating functional for roughness correlations. The latter allows me to incorporate roughness in a Quantum Field Theoretic (QFT) framework.    I first consider a massless scalar field in the presence of parallel plates where one of which has a rough surface. In this case, semi-transparent boundary conditions are imposed by delta-function potentials. In the strong coupling limit the delta-function potential imposes Dirichlet boundary conditions. The Feynman rules of this equivalent 2+1-dimensional model are derived and its counterterms constructed. The two-loop contribution to the free energy of this model gives the leading roughness correction to the Casimir energy. The resummation of high-momentum loops shows that roughness effectively leads to a change in the mean separation of the order sigma^2/l_c and reduces reflection.     The scalar model subsequently is generalized to the electromagnetic case. I derive the dielectric roughness corrections to the electromagnetic Casimir energy in a perturbative framework of the effective low-energy field theory for dielectric materials of Schwinger. It describes the interaction of electromagnetic fields with materials whose plasma frequency sets the low-energy scale. I show that the perturbative expansion of the single-interface scattering matrix in the amplitude of the profile is sensitive to short-wavelength components of the roughness correlation function. Generalized counterterms are introduced to subtract and correct these unphysical high-momentum contributions to the loop expansion. To leading perturbative order, the counterterms reproduce the phenomenological plasmon model. The renormalized low-energy theory is insensitive to the high-momentum behavior of the roughness correlation function and remains finite in the uncorrelated limit. I compare these predictions with the unrenormalized model and with experiment.

description: This study investigates the challenges and opportunities in hospital logistics across urban and rural Rwanda, aiming to address disparities in healthcare delivery. Using a descriptive comparative research design, data were collected from government reports, hospital records, surveys, and interviews conducted between January 2012 and December 2013. Urban hospitals demonstrated superior logistical performance, evidenced by higher on-time delivery rates (90% urban vs. 60% rural, p<0.01) and lower stockout frequencies (5% urban vs. 20% rural, p<0.01). Regression analysis revealed that the adoption of inventory management systems significantly enhanced logistical efficiency (β=0.75,p<0.001). Conversely, rural hospitals faced greater logistical challenges, including poor infrastructure and inadequate budgets. Conclusions highlight the need for targeted interventions such as improved transportation infrastructure (r=0.62,p<0.001) and training programs to bridge the logistics gap. Recommendations include investing in rural infrastructure, integrating logistics management systems, and enhancing public-private partnerships.
The effect of ectopic expression of pine glutamine synthetase (GS1a) on water use efficiency in transgenic poplar

description: Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a key factor in the assimilation of nitrogen in plants. Hybrid poplar plants (Populus tremula X P. alba, INRA 717-1-B4) ectopically expressing pine GS display increased growth rates, increased nitrogen use efficiency, and resistance to drought. In order to assess mechanisms associated with observed drought tolerance of GS poplars, we studied the ability of the GS poplars to perform photosynthesis under control and water-limiting conditions, as well as their nitrogen and carbon isotope contents. Included in this study were carboxylation efficiency, maximum assimilation rate, quantum yield of photosynthesis, maximum electron transport rate, dark respiration, triose phosphate utilization, light compensation point, intrinsic water use efficiency, stomatal conductance, and nitrogen-use efficiency. Rooted cuttings (12-18 months) were grown in a growth chamber (24o C; 16 hour photoperiod; approx. 330 μmol m-2 s-1). Well-watered conditions were defined as a soil moisture value of over 0.40 m3∙m-3, and drought conditions were defined as having a value of less than 0.20 m3∙m-3. The results showed significant differences between the GS transgenic and wild type. Under drought and control conditions, GS poplars showed carboxylation efficiencies similar to wild type   grown under well-watered and drought conditions. Photosynthetic capacities were not different regardless of condition or genotype. However, the GS poplars showed lower water use efficiency when compared to the wild type, but higher nitrogen use efficiency. These data suggest that, compared to the wild type, GS poplars display a tradeoff between water and nitrogen use efficiency and are characterized by slightly enhanced photosynthesis, even during drought stress.

Remarks. Dorsally yellow with black elytral apices which may extend anteriorly so that almost all the elytron is black except for the paler humeri and anterior margin. The abdominal segments 4−6 in the male, and 4 and 5 in the female, were described as luminous. The dorsal colour pattern approaches several Curtos spp. but the differing elytral colour pattern also suggests more than one species could have been examined originally.

description: Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed natural language processing (NLP) by enabling robust text generation and understanding. However, their deployment in sensitive domains like healthcare, finance, and legal services raises critical concerns about privacy and data security. This paper proposes a comprehensive framework for embedding trust mechanisms into LLMs to dynamically control the disclosure of sensitive information. The framework integrates three core components: User Trust Profiling, Information Sensitivity Detection, and Adaptive Output Control. By leveraging techniques such as Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), Named Entity Recognition (NER), contextual analysis, and privacy-preserving methods like differential privacy, the system ensures that sensitive information is disclosed appropriately based on the user's trust level. By focusing on balancing data utility and privacy, the proposed solution offers a novel approach to securely deploying LLMs in high-risk environments. Future work will focus on testing this framework across various domains to evaluate its effectiveness in managing sensitive data while maintaining system efficiency.

Citizen trust of government in the context of citizen-centered administration
Creators: name: Yao, Xiang
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Drawing primarily on rational choice theory, the principal-agent model, deliberative democracy theory, and social capital theory, this study empirically investigates how local government administration performance, information transparency and technology, citizen participation in local governance, and individual-level social capital affect government trustworthiness; what roles that administration performance plays between citizen trust and other proposed predictors; and whether local government managerial process influences state and federal government credibility.   Cross-sectional online citizen survey was employed to administer questionnaires to CivicPanel registered members in July 2013. Using data from 528 valid responses, structural equation model and descriptive statistics reveal that (a) average government trustworthiness is relatively low throughout local, state, and federal levels, and decreases from local to state to federal government; (b) high administration performance, adoption of social media or electronic subscription to distribute information, and variety of citizen participation avenues boost government trustworthiness; however, the more citizens are involved in community activities or associations, the less they trust in government; (c) reliable government information disclosure and high levels of interpersonal trust with other people directly contribute to citizen confidence in government and indirectly affect government trustworthiness through facilitating administration performance; (d) stability of the e-government system and the true influences of participation on policy making are positively associated with administration performance, which promotes government trustworthiness; (e) older people, females, and Democrats tend to have less trust in government; and (f) local government managerial process indeed has effects on state and federal government trustworthiness.    Thus the determinants of government trustworthiness are multi-dimensional, with administration performance being pivotal. Also, a joint Outcome-Process perspective is essential for a complete picture of government trustworthiness. To achieve a satisfactory level of citizen trust in government, politicians and administrators should seek a balance between citizen-centered value and institutional performance. The study indicates a need to develop collaborative administration from passive responsiveness to genuinely involving citizens and cross-government agencies in policy making and implementation. Information technology plays a key role in shaping citizen trust in government, and information technology should not only deliver managerial efficiency but also play a role in promoting democracy, e-participation, and e-governance.
Vibrational spectroscopy and microscopic imaging of skin

description: Confocal Raman spectroscopy and dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) measurements of human Type I collagen and pigskin dermis were performed to probe relative humidity (RH) dependent differences in the nature and level of collagen hydration. Raman spectra were also acquired as a function of time for both Type I collagen and pigskin dermis samples upon exchange of a 100% RH H2O to deuterium oxide (D2O) environment. Alterations in Amide I and III modes were consistent with anticipated changes in hydrogen bonding strength as RH increased and upon H → D exchange. Of note is the identification of a Raman spectral marker (band at 938 cm-1) which appears to be sensitive to alterations in collagen-bound water. Analysis of DVS isotherms provided a quantitative measure of adsorbed and absorbed water vapor consistent with the Raman results.           Infrared (IR) spectroscopic imaging was utilized to evaluate lateral diffusion in stratum corneum (SC) and elucidate intermolecular interactions between exogenous agents and SC constituents. In separate experiments, acyl chain perdeuterated oleic acid (OA-d) and deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO-d) were applied to the surface of isolated human SC. The lateral distribution of permeant concentrations was monitored using the time-dependence of IR images. Diffusion coefficients (D) were estimated from Fick’s second law. Networked glyphs served as the major pathway for lateral distribution of OA-d. In glyph-poor regions, D values 0.3-1 x 10-8 cm2/s bracketed the OA-d data and apparently decreased with time and diffusion of DMSO-d suggests D values of ~10-7 cm2/s. Interactions between the exogenous agents and the SC were tracked from changes in CD2 and Amide I stretching frequencies. OA-d spectral changes suggest penetration into the ordered lipids of the SC; DMSO-d penetration results in perturbation of SC keratin structure.           IR imaging was also used to investigate permeation properties of two types of ceramides in human skin. IR images were acquired after incubating for 24 or 48 H with deuterated ceramide suspended in oleic acid. IR images of ceramide concentration were obtained after applying Beer’s Law. Analysis of IR spectra and concentration images suggest the detection limit of both ceramide around 3.5 mM, and most of the ceramide reside in concentrated localized pockets on skin surface, and in deep glyphs. Further analysis indicates the permeation of both ceramide into top layers of SC.
Comparisons of statistical methods for determining gene expression signatures to predict binary cancer response

description: Cancer is a major public health problem with high mortality and mobility. In the past few decades, developments and progress of high-throughput molecular technologies have been used in diagnosing and managing treatments for cancers. Cancer classification using gene expression data poses many challenges to classical supervised learning methods. The main objective of this dissertation is to evaluate and compare the performances of six selected different classification methods, denoted as Logit (logistic regression), Lasso (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator), CART (classification and regression tree), RF (random forest), GBM (gradient boosted models), and SVM (support vector machine), for predicting binary cancer outcomes using gene expression data. We compare the performance using both real life datasets (prostate cancer data and breast cancer data) and extensive simulation experiments. Consistent with findings from previous comparisons of classifiers, the best classifier for predicting binary outcome varies with the dataset and the evaluation measures. No universally best performed classifier is identified which can work for all empirical datasets and under all simulation scenarios. When we compare different methods for classifications, especially classifiers for predicting cancer outcomes, accuracy should not be only thing we consider; other factors, such as simplicity to implement, ease of interpretation for clinicians or biologists, the biological insights that can be gained from the analysis results of a classifier, should also be taken into account. In addition, we have provided clear and easy-to-follow procedures of predictive model building and performance assessment for clinical researchers when there is a need to compare classification results from different classifier. We have addressed the binary classification problem in our thesis, but this approach should be easily applied to multi-category classification problems or to survival analysis problems. Based on results from real life datasets and extensive simulation experiments, we have found that when working with classification problem using high dimensional data, simple but widely used classification method, such as logistic regression has its limitation, and may not achieve the desirable performance. Classifiers designed to handle large numbers of predictors, such as Lasso, GBM, SVM and RF,  are better choice in such situations.
