description: As for May 21st 2020 we conducted three online searches in order to capture all the papers that assess collaborative dishonesty, as measured by the dyadic die rolling task (Weisel & Shalvi, 2015). We identified nine manuscripts in which studies were reported that employed the dyadic die rolling task. In January 2021, we expand our analyses to include additional tasks that capture collaborative dishonesty. We are interested in tasks allowing groups of participants to lie together. In these tasks, a group of participants has a motivation (financial or other) to misreport the true state of the world. Specifically, we focus on decisions that are either made (i) jointly by groups of participants, (ii) simultaneously by individuals whose outcomes are interdependent with other group members, or (iii) sequentially by individuals whose outcomes are interdependent with other group members. The inclusion criteria are outlined in detail in the call for papers (in the file attached). In order to capture the additional tasks that assess collaborative dishonesty we will: (1) Screen all the manuscripts captured in the three online searches we conducted (2) Conduct an additional online search on ProQuest Dissertations and Theses database (3) Disseminate a call for papers in the following associations: Economic Science Association (ESA); Society of Judgement and Decision-Making (SJDM); European Association for Decision Making (EADM); Society for Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP), European Association for Social Psychology (EASP); and International Association for Research in Economic Psychology (IAREP) as well as relevant researchers in the behavioral ethics filed.

Horacio Quiroga: narrating the limit of death in nature
Creators: name: Abreu Mendoza, Carlos
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: The goal of the present study is to analyze how the concepts of limit, death and nature evolve in Horacio Quiroga's literature. There, nature becomes the stage on which the human drama of death is acted out to the limit. In order to understand this more in depth, I examine the relationship between death and nature in Quiroga from the philosophical perspective of limit as proposed by Eugenio Trías. I begin by analyzing Quiroga's first literary production in relation to Modernismo and the latter's existential approach to death and nature. The relationship between these two concepts can also be observed in his short stories, produced from 1912 to 1933: La miel silvestre [The Wild Honey] (1911), A la deriva [Drifting] (1912), El hombre muerto [The Dead Man] (1920) and Los desterrados [The Exiles] (1925). In these fictions, the characters become aware of an ungraspable end that happens through the narration of their journey from life to death, perishing in the limits of this world and ignoring what lies in the great beyond. Finally, the latter text Las moscas [The Flies] (1933), proposes an alternative that contrasts with the previous texts and culminates the evolution of Quiroga discussed here with the idea that the limit of death can be surpassed.

description: We combine Herschel/SPIRE sub-millimeter (submm) observations with existing multi-wavelength data to investigate the characteristics of low redshift, optically red galaxies detected in submm bands. We select a sample of galaxies in the redshift range 0.01$\leq$z$\leq$0.2, having >5$σ$ detections in the SPIRE 250 micron submm waveband. Sources are then divided into two sub-samples of $red$ and $blue$ galaxies, based on their UV-optical colours. Galaxies in the $red$ sample account for $\approx$4.2 per cent of the total number of sources with stellar masses M$_{*}\gtrsim$10$^{10}$ Solar-mass. Following visual classification of the $red$ galaxies, we find that $\gtrsim$30 per cent of them are early-type galaxies and $\gtrsim$40 per cent are spirals. The colour of the $red$-spiral galaxies could be the result of their highly inclined orientation and/or a strong contribution of the old stellar population. It is found that irrespective of their morphological types, $red$ and $blue$ sources occupy environments with more or less similar densities (i.e., the $Σ_5$ parameter). From the analysis of the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of galaxies in our samples based on MAGPHYS, we find that galaxies in the $red$ sample (of any morphological type) have dust masses similar to those in the $blue$ sample (i.e. normal spiral/star-forming systems). However, in comparison to the $red$-spirals and in particular $blue$ systems, $red$-ellipticals have lower mean dust-to-stellar mass ratios. Besides galaxies in the $red$-elliptical sample have much lower mean star-formation/specific-star-formation rates in contrast to their counterparts in the $blue$ sample. Our results support a scenario where dust in early-type systems is likely to be of an external origin.

description: We investigate the freeze-out conditions of a particle in an expanding system of interacting particles in order to understand the productions of resonances, hadronic molecules and light nuclei in heavy ion collisions. Applying the kinetic freeze-out condition with explicit hydrodynamic calculations for the expanding hadronic phase to the daughter particles of $K^*$ mesons, we find that the larger suppression of the yield ratio of $K^*/K$ at LHC than at RHIC compared to the expectations from the statistical hadronization model based on chemical freeze-out parameters reflects the lower kinetic freeze-out temperature at LHC than at RHIC. Furthermore, we point out that for the light nuclei or hadronic molecules that are bound, the yields are affected by the freeze-out condition of the respective particle in the hadronic matter, which leads to the observation that the deuteron production yields are independent of the size of deuteron, and depend only on the number of ground state constituents.

description: We derived the conditions on certain combinations of integrals of the fragmentation functions of pion using HERMES data of the sum for the charged pion multiplicities from semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) off the deuteron target. In our derivation the nucleon parton distribution functions (PDFs) are assumed to be isospin SU(2) symmetric. Similar conditions have also been obtained for the fragmentation functions (FFs) of kaon by the sum of charged kaon multiplicities as well. We have chosen several FFs to study the impact of those conditions we have derived. Among those FFs, only that produced in the nonlocal chiral-quark model (NL$χ$QM) constantly satisfy the conditions. Furthermore, the ratios of the strange PDFs $S(x)$ and the nonstrange PDFs $Q(x,Q^2)$ extracted from the charged pion and kaon multiplicities differ from each other significantly. Finally, we demonstrate that the HERMES pion multiplicity data is unlikely to be compatible with the two widely-used PDFs, namely CTEQ6M and NNPDF3.0.

description: The purpose of this study was to create a profile of the 56 college football teams selected to play in Bowl Championship Series (BCS) bowl games from 1998 through 2004. A secondary purpose was to identify trends these profiles revealed. The results of this study were the profiles themselves and the information they shared about the teams. Specifically, this study showed 84% of teams had a top 20 pre-season ranking, 57% of teams had their strength of schedule rated outside the top 25, 95% of teams had recruiting classes ranked in the top 40, and as offenses improved, defenses weaken. This study provides a better understanding of past BCS bowl bound teams and could serve as a benchmark for athletic administrators to compare their own teams.
Is Extra virgin olive oil the critical ingredient driving the health benefits of a mediterranean diet? A narrative review

subject: FOS: Health sciences

description: Most chronic diseases are preventable with a healthy diet, although there is debate about the optimal dietary approach. Increasingly more countries are focusing on food-based guidelines rather than the traditional nutrient-based approach. Although there is good agreement on plant foods, controversy remains about the types and amounts of fats and oils. This narrative review aims to systematically summarize and evaluate the latest evidence on the protective effects of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) on disease risk factors. A systematic search of the relevant literature using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases was conducted for the years 2000 through December 2022. A narrative synthesis was then undertaken. Of 281 retrieved articles, 34 articles fulfilled our inclusion criteria and were included. Compared with other dietary fats and low-fat diets, EVOO is superior in the management of clinical biomarkers including lowering blood pressure and LDL-c, increasing protective HDL-c, improving glycemic control, and weight management. The protective effects of EVOO are likely due to its polyphenol content rather than the monounsaturated fat content. It is therefore important to promote the regular use of EVOO in the context of healthy dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean diet for maximal health benefit.

description: In this work we deal with the problem of high-level event detection in video. Specifically, we study the challenging problems of i) learning to detect video events from solely a textual description of the event, without using any positive video examples, and ii) additionally exploiting very few positive training samples together with a small number of ``related'' videos. For learning only from an event's textual description, we first identify a general learning framework and then study the impact of different design choices for various stages of this framework. For additionally learning from example videos, when true positive training samples are scarce, we employ an extension of the Support Vector Machine that allows us to exploit ``related'' event videos by automatically introducing different weights for subsets of the videos in the overall training set. Experimental evaluations performed on the large-scale TRECVID MED 2014 video dataset provide insight on the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

description: BACKGROUND Mitotane is currently used for the treatment of unresectable adrenocortical cancer and as adjuvant therapy in patients with a high risk of recurrence. However, treatment-related side effects are several and frequent and may cause mitotane discontinuation. The most frequent adverse events are gastro-intestinal and neurological disorders. The frequency and the characteristics of metabolic and endocrine adverse events, despite commonly encountered in clinical practice, have not been enough highlighted. This systematic review aims to collect and discuss the available evidence on the endocrine and metabolic toxicities of mitotane. METHODS Outcomes - Primary outcome: to assess the frequency of endocrine and metabolic toxicities of mitotane. - Secondary outcomes: to assess the severity, the time of onset, the predisposing factors, the required management and response to treatment, and the eventual recovery of endocrine toxicities after mitotane discontinuation. Search strategy - Database: PubMed - Search term: mitotane (without filters) - Inclusion criteria: - English-language studies - Human studies (both in children and adults) - Design: randomized clinical trials, prospective non-randomized trials, retrospective studies and case series (including at least 7 patients) - Articles on mitotane used for the treatment of adrenal carcinoma - Articles reporting data on the endocrine and metabolic side effects of mitotane - Exclusion criteria: - Non- original articles or case reports - Articles reporting only data on the efficacy of mitotane or non-endocrine side effects, without considering the related endocrine or metabolic toxicities Article Selection Each study was screened by abstract and title; for potentially eligible studies full-length articles were independently reviewed by two separate authors following inclusion criteria. Other two authors independently extracted data from the articles that met the inclusion criteria. A standardized form (excel program) was prepared and used for extracting the variables of interest: design, year of publication, number of patients, body mass index, age at adrenocortical cancer diagnosis, tumor staging, previous and concomitant treatments, data on mitotane treatment, data on any endocrine and metabolic side effects related to mitotane treatment (frequency, severity, time of onset, predisposing factors, required management and treatment response, eventual mitotane discontinuation or dose reduction, eventual recovery of the endocrine toxicities after therapy discontinuation).

Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome

description: The peripheral and highly lipid-exposed M4 α-helix, although distant from the agonist binding site, channel gate, and other important gating structures, is involved in modulating function of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. M4 "senses" changes in the surrounding lipid environment and may consequently affect receptor function by altering specific interactions between the M4 C-terminus and the Cys-loop. An example of this lipid sensing ability is demonstrated by a lipid-facing Cys418 to Trp substitution on αM4 (αM4 C418W) of the muscle-type receptor, which subtly alters protein-lipid interactions and potentiates channel function 16-fold, leading to a slow-channel congenital myasthenic syndrome. Through the use of mutational studies and mutant cycle analysis, I determine that, contrary to previous studies, M4–Cys-loop interactions are not critical to wild-type muscle-type receptor function, nor are they involved in C418W-induced potentiation. Instead, C418W potentiates channel activity by enhancing local M4-M1 interactions mediated by three polar side-chains, which are absolutely critical to potentiation. I show that altered M4-M1 interactions are ultimately translated to two important gating structures, which work in tandem to stabilize the open conformation of the receptor. These studies highlight how altered protein-lipid interactions can affect channel function and contribute to our understanding of the underlying gating mechanism of the muscle-type receptor.

Spatiotemporal analysis of socioeconomic exposure to assess flood policy effectiveness
Creators: name: Patterson, Lauren Anne
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: After nearly a century of flood policies in the U.S., losses have continued to increase. This thesis examined the potential increase in losses related to the 100-yr floodplain, which is the minimum standard for implementing policies. Despite this core role, as much as 1.5 vertical meters of uncertainty exists when delineating the boundray. However, no uncertainty is provided on flood maps, which could result in increased socioeconomic exposure adjacent to the boundary when a larger flood occurs. This thesis quantified the effectiveness of mitigation from 1990 to 2000 for five North Carolina counties by examining changes in exposure inside and adjacent to the 100-yr floodplain. Findings indicated mitigation efforts have been effective inside the 100-yr floodplain; however, there was a significant increase in exposure adjacent to this floodplain. Stream scale analyses indicated mitigation effectiveness was influenced by stream size, distance from the stream, and location in urban versus rural areas.

description: For the present study, we will use group-based multi-trajectory modelling (GBTM) and take an exploratory approach to map (i) the individual trajectories of peer aggression and peer victimization, and (ii) joint trajectories of (a) peer aggression and mental health and (b) peer victimization and mental health throughout the pandemic. We will use emotional and behavioural/attentional difficulties subscales from the SDQ as proxies for mental health as they have been shown to reliably provide an accurate and unbiased method of assessing the mental health of children (Goodman & Goodman, 2011). Lastly, based on recent evidence by Raw and colleagues (2021) we will examine whether children’s pre-existing mental health problems, other pre-existing developmental disorders, family conflict and sibling conflict relate to specific trajectories, as they may be more susceptible to peer problems and adjustment difficulties and thus require extra support as they transition back to school. This study will allow us to understand the impact of pandemics on negative peer-relationships and ensure that future policy work - from school to state level – prioritize the wellbeing of children.

description: We study the properties of possible static, spherically symmetric configurations in k-essence theories with the Lagrangian functions of the form $F(X)$, $X \equiv ϕ_{,α} ϕ^{,α}$. A no-go theorem has been proved, claiming that a possible black-hole-like Killing horizon of finite radius cannot exist if the function $F(X)$ is required to have a finite derivative $dF/dX$. Two exact solutions are obtained for special cases of k-essence: one for $F(X) =F_0 X^{1/3}$, another for $F(X) = F_0 |X|^{1/2} - 2 Λ$, where $F_0$ and $Λ$ are constants. Both solutions contain horizons, are not asymptotically flat, and provide illustrations for the obtained no-go theorem. The first solution may be interpreted as describing a black hole in an asymptotically singular space-time, while in the second solution two horizons of infinite area are connected by a wormhole.

description: In 1954 John Flanagan reported the critical incident technique (CIT) to solve practical problems and develop broad psychological principles optimising performance and procedures. These were initially developed in response to aircraft and aircrew losses during training, at a time before cockpit voice and flight data recorders. The CIT was further developed by its application to a range of industries and professions. The CIT utilises interviews and observations, collecting data with inductive analysis of frequent incidents, identifying behaviours that enable tasks to be performed safely, effectively and efficiently. Flanagan described the CIT in terms of: defining the typical performance (work as imagined) including checklists, observing proficiency of performance (work as done) to identify variations, identifying training requirements, selection of individuals to undertake tasks, job design with elimination of unnecessary tasks, the development and use of operating procedures, using incidents to improve equipment design, motivation and leadership (attitudes, opinions, decisions and choices), and counselling and psychotherapy in response to incidents. We propose the CIT provides a foundation for informing resilient healthcare practices by applying Safety II principles to affect Safety I outcomes. There is consistency with just culture by recognising inter-relationships of recruitment, training and performance, the psychological concepts of behaviours, perception and memory and identification of critical tasks required for key performances to be completed successfully.

description: The present study measures social discounting behavior and political beliefs proximal to the United States presidential elections in 2016 and 2020. In addition to assessing participants’ social discounting behavior, this research also measures how participants perceive members of the same and opposite political ideology will behave. Therefore, we will test whether perceptions of the opposing ideology are in line with actual behavior from members of that ideology, or whether participants overestimate differences along party/ideological lines.

Permutation Spreading Technique Employing Spatial Modulation for MIMO-CDMA Systems

description: Spatial Modulation (SM) is a spatial multiplexing technique designed for MIMO systems where only one transmit antenna is used at each time. It is considered to be an attractive choice for future wireless communication systems as it reduces Inter Channel Interference (ICI) while maintaining high energy efficiency. It can achieve this goal by mapping block of data bits into constellation points in the spatial and signal domain. Combining this innovative method with multiple access techniques could improve the system performance and enhance the data rate. In Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) method employing parity bit permutation spreading, the bit error rate (BER) performance could be improved by using the parity bits to select the spreading sequence to use at each signalling interval. In this thesis, a new system model based on SM and CDMA employing parity bit permutation spreading is proposed and investigated. The proposed system takes advantage of the benefits of both techniques. In this system, in addition to use the parity bits to select the spreading sequences, same concept is used to select the combination of antennas to activate at each time instant. By doing so, a reduction of power consumption, Inter-Channel and Inter Symbol Interference effect can be achieved while keeping a certain diversity order compared to SM. Multiuser scenario is also discussed in order to investigate the multiple access interference (MAI) effects in synchronous transmission. In such case, the receiver estimates the desired user's information by considering the other users' signal as additional noise. Simulation results of the proposed MIMO-CDMA system employing permutation spreading show, for single user and multiuser, a significant improvement of the BER performance in low signal to noise ratio (SNR) when SM is implemented.

Effects of the electrostatic environment on the Majorana nanowire devices

description: One of the promising platforms for creating Majorana bound states is a hybrid nanostructure consisting of a semiconducting nanowire covered by a superconductor. We analyze the previously disregarded role of electrostatic interaction in these devices. Our main result is that Coulomb interaction causes the chemical potential to respond to an applied magnetic field, while spin-orbit interaction and screening by the superconducting lead suppress this response. Consequently, the electrostatic environment influences two properties of Majorana devices: the shape of the topological phase boundary and the oscillations of the Majorana splitting energy. We demonstrate that both properties show a non-universal behavior, and depend on the details of the electrostatic environment. We show that when the wire only contains a single electron mode, the experimentally accessible inverse self-capacitance of this mode fully captures the interplay between electrostatics and Zeeman field. This offers a way to compare theoretical predictions with experiments.

description: In multi-view video applications, view synthesis is a computationally intensive task that needs to be done correctly and efficiently in order to deliver a seamless user experience. In order to provide fast and efficient view synthesis, in this thesis, we present a cloud-based implementation that will be especially beneficial to mobile users whose devices may not be powerful enough for high quality view synthesis. Our proposed implementation balances the view synthesis algorithm’s components across multiple threads and utilizes the computational capacity of modern CPUs for faster and higher quality view synthesis. For arbitrary view generation, we utilize the depth map of the scene from the cameras’ viewpoint and estimate the depth information conceived from the virtual camera. The estimated depth is then used in a backward direction to warp the cameras’ image onto the virtual view. Finally, we use a depth-aided inpainting strategy for the rendering step to reduce the effect of disocclusion regions (holes) and to paint the missing pixels. For our cloud implementation, we employed an automatic scaling feature to offer elasticity in order to adapt the service load according to the fluctuating user demands. Our performance results using 4 multi-view videos over 2 different scenarios show that our proposed system achieves average improvement of 3x speedup, 87% efficiency, and 90% CPU utilization for the parallelizable parts of the algorithm.

description: We consider the Bogolubov-Hartree-Fock functional for a fermionic many-body system with two-body interactions. For suitable interaction potentials that have a strong enough attractive tail in order to allow for two-body bound states, but are otherwise sufficiently repulsive to guarantee stability of the system, we show that in the low-density limit the ground state of this model consists of a Bose-Einstein condensate of fermion pairs. The latter can be described by means of the Gross-Pitaevskii energy functional.

description: We present a new method for obtaining the statistical weight of the Gentile Statistics. In a recent paper, Perez and Tun presented an ap- proximate combinatoric and an exact recursive formula for the statistical weight of Gentile Statistics, beginning from bosonic and fermionic cases, respectively [1]. In this paper, we obtain two exact, one combinatoric and one recursive, formulae for the statistical weight of Gentile Statistics, by an another approach. The combinatoric formula is valid only for special cases, whereas recursive formula is valid for all possible cases. Moreover, for a given q-maximum number of particles that can occupy a level for Gentile statistics-the recursive formula we have derived gives the result much faster than the recursive formula presented in [1], when one uses a computer program. Moreover we obtained the statistical weight for the distribution proposed by Dai and Xie in Ref. [2]. Keywords: Fractional statistics, Gentile distribution, Statistical Weight
