Design and Make skills development program: Research report on the Design and Make pilot program

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The Design and Make pilot was an action research project conducted in the Living Skills Unit of the Adelaide Women’s Prison in 2018/2019, funded by the South Australian Department for Correctional Services. It involved designers, artists and other experts through the University of South Australia’s Match Studio who worked with women at the Adelaide Women’s prison. Enabled by staff within the Life Skills Unit at AWP, Match Studio applied design thinking processes to work with a group of women to develop a product prototype that can be produced in prison and sold to the public. \nThis project piloted one of the recommendations within Match Studio’s Inside-Out proposal (2017), by the integrating the opportunity for prison industry workers to contribute to the design of the products they produce thus, extending existing prison industries and skills development programs across South Australia’s prisons. \nThe Design and Make pilot project successfully achieved the four specific outcomes identified in the original grant application to the Department for Correctional Services. \n1.\tDevelop and enhance the entrepreneurial skills and pro-social networks of program participants.\n2.\tCo-design a product/s with program participants and create a prototype that could be taken to market.\n3.\tDevelop a brand concept for prison-made products that can be sold to the public.\n4.\tCreate an evidence base to guide future Design and Make projects that could also be replicated in other DCS sites.\nThe pilot applied participatory action research, intended to inform and document a replicable and sustainable model of operational procedures, workshop activities and resources and evidence gathering, to support the development and deployment of a Design and Make inspired brand, and workshop program model, across multiple DCS prisons.
Self-determination constructs as predictors of higher education aspirations and expectations: a cross sectional study of secondary school children

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Abstract—Key concepts in self-determination theory, such as motivation regulation and goal contents, have a well-established research base in an educational context. A higher degree of autonomy in motivation regulation, and pursuit of intrinsic goals such as personal development, appear to be associated with a range of positive educational outcomes such as persistence in education and enjoyment of academic work, though much research in this area is classroom based. This study aimed to examine if such associations are apparent in attitude and behavioural intentions towards post- school level education. A cross-sectional survey (n=687) of UK secondary school children assessed students’ academic self-regulation, goal contents, and aspirations towards and expectations of university attendance. Preliminary results indicate associations between a more autonomous motivation regulation and greater intrinsic goal setting with aspirations and expectations of higher education. Structural equation mediation modelling indicated a small but significant indirect effect in the model. This study forms part of a project to investigate if motivation regulation and goal contents might be useful targets for university widening participation programs. University attendance in the UK is above 50%, but a socio-economic divide remains despite attendance increases among lower socio-economic groups. Focused targeting of motivation regulation and goal setting behaviours within these interventions may be helpful in addressing this persistent gap.
Security of Double-Sequence Knapsack PKC and Single-Sequence Knapsack PKC against Low-Density Attack

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The study of the knapsack PKC is important from both practical and theoretical standpoints. We proposed a double-sequence knapsack PKC on the basis of MH PKC. We also proposed a single-sequence knapsack PKC using the Chinese remainder theorem on the basis of this scheme. In this paper, we explain the double-sequence knapsack PKC and the single-sequence knapsack PKC. We describe examples of trapdoors based on the conventional trapdoors. We evaluate the breaking rate of the double-sequence knapsack PKC and the single-sequence knapsack PKC with the low-density attack by computer experiments.
Pectus excavatum og Nuss prosedyren ved Ullevål sykehus, en retrospektiv studie.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Pectus excavatum is the most common chest wall deformity with an incidence of 1:400 births, resulting in about 130 new cases each year in Norway. About half of pectus excavatum patients undergo the Nuss procedure, where a metal bar is inserted retro-sternally to normalise the chest-wall curvature. Three years later the bar is removed. Patients seek medical assistance due to physical and psychological issues related to the condition. The main goal of this thesis was to review current literature on the topic and to retrospectively analyse a Nuss-operated patient cohort.
Metal-poor globular clusters and galaxy formation

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We demonstrate a significant (>5 σ) correlation between the mean color of metal-poor globular cluster (GC) systems and parent galaxy luminosity. A Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo method is introduced to find the mean color and is easily generalizable to quantify multimodality in other astronomical data sets. We derive a GC color-galaxy luminosity relation of the form Z ∝ L 0.15±0.03. When combined with evidence against a single primordial GC metallicity-galaxy luminosity relation for protogalactic fragments, the existence of such a correlation is evidence against both accretion and major merger scenarios as an explanation of the entire metal-poor GC systems of luminous galaxies. However, our relation arises naturally in an in situ picture of GC formation and is consistent with the truncation of metal-poor GC formation by reionization. A further implication is that the ages of metal-poor GCs in dwarf galaxies constrain the main epoch of galaxy formation in hierarchical models. If the ages of old metal-poor GCs in Local Group dwarfs (≳ 11 Gyr) are typical of those in dwarfs elsewhere, then the bulk of galaxy assembly (at least in clusters and groups) must have occurred at z≳2.5, contrary to the predictions of some structure formation models.
SAFEARC: A Seven-Pillar Operational Architecture for Socio-Technical AI Governance

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Despite broad convergence among global AI governance frameworks, organizations continue to struggle with implementation. The barrier is not conceptual but operational: existing guidance defines principles without translating them into workable socio-technical processes. This paper introduces SAFEARC, a seven-pillar architecture designed to operationalize regulatory expectations across organizational contexts. SAFEARC integrates requirements from the EU AI Act, OECD AI Principles, NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and ISO/IEC 42001 into a unified workflow structured around Scan, Align, Filter, Evaluate, Assign, Renew, and Contain.Using clause-level crosswalk analysis, convergence mapping, and synthesis across 68 regulatory and standards documents, the study identifies six governance domains consistently demanded by major frameworks and four structural barriers that impede adoption in practice. These findings inform the development of an architecture aimed at bridging the gap between policy intent and organizational capability.The paper demonstrates that SAFEARC enhances auditability, improves internal coordination, and supports socio-technical readiness for emerging AI regulation. The approach is applicable to both large enterprises and resource-constrained organizations, offering a practical pathway toward trustworthy AI implementation.
Experimental study on improving bamboo concrete bond strength

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Bamboo concrete bond behaviour is investigated through pullout test in this work. The bamboo strip to be used as
reinforcement inside concrete is first treated with chemical adhesive to make the bamboo surface impermeable. Various surface coatings are explored to understand their water repellant properties. The chemical action at the bamboo concrete interface is studied through different chemical coatings, sand blasting, and steel wire wrapping treatment. Whereas mechanical action at the bamboo concrete interface is studied by developing mechanical interlock. The result of pullout tests revealed a unique combination of surface treatment and grooved bamboo profile. This combination of surface treatment and a grooved bamboo
profile together enhances the strength of bond. Performance of a newly developed grooved bamboo strip is verified against equivalent plain rectangular bamboo strip. The test results show that the proposed grooved bamboo reinforcement, when treated, shows highest bond strength compared to treated plain, untreated plain and untreated grooved bamboo reinforcement. Also, it is observed that bond strength is majorly influenced by the type of surface treatment, size and spacing of groove. The changes in
bamboo-concrete bond behavior are observed during the experimentation.
Theological Ethics through a Multispecies Lens

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract There are two driving questions informing this book. The first is where does our moral life come from? The presupposition is that considering morality broadly is inadequate. Instead, different aspects need to be teased apart. It is not sufficient to assume that different virtues are bolted onto a vicious animality, red in tooth and claw. Nature and culture have interlaced histories. By weaving in evolutionary theories and debates on the evolution of compassion, justice, and wisdom, the book shows a richer account of who we are as moral agents. The second driving question concerns our relationships with animals. There is dissatisfaction with animal rights frameworks and an argument instead for a more complex community-based multispecies approach. Hence, rather than extending rights, a more radical approach is a holistic multispecies framework for moral action. This need not weaken individual responsibility. The intention is not to develop a manual of practice, but rather to build towards an alternative philosophically informed approach to theological ethics, including animal ethics. The theological thread weaving through this account is wisdom. Wisdom has many different levels, and in the broadest sense is connected with the flow of life understood in its interconnectedness and sociality. It is profoundly theological and practical. In naming the project the evolution of wisdom a statement is being made about where wisdom may have come from and its future orientation. But justice, compassion, and conscience are not far behind, especially in so far as they are relevant to both individual decision-making and institutions.
Cross-Cultural Effects in Adoption Patterns of a Mobile Coaching Service for studies

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

This study applied an adoption model, inspired by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Multipurpose Information Appliances Adoption Model (MIAAM), to compare key variables explaining adoption patterns of a mobile coaching app that guides and encourages students via a technology-based platform. This article constitutes a pioneer effort to compare adoption behaviors across a developed country and an emerging country (France and Mexico) with differences in level of use of mobile apps. A multi-group structural equation modelling approach was used to test the causal structure of the conceptual model. Results confirmed significant differences and similarities across samples and identified critical factors. Perceived usefulness was found to be the most important driver with mediating effects. Organizations implementing coaching services with an improved perceived usefulness could boost their adoption rates.

Analysis of the echogenicity and echotexture of the walls of the palmar and plantar digital arteries of horses and mules

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

The grayscale histogram (GH) is a tool available in some software that allows evaluating the quantity and distribution of the grayscale frequency of certain region studied in an image. In ultrasonography, GH has been applied to assess the echogenicity and echotexture of different organs, revealing clinical applicability. This study makes a comparative analysis of the echogenicity and echotexture of the palmar and plantar digital arteries in healthy horses and mules using the grayscale histogram (GH). It also set out to compare the possible variability between the superficial and deep tunica intima and media (IM) of the vessels evaluated. B-Mode ultrasonography was performed in the longitudinal plane of the lateral and medial palmar and plantar digital arteries in 10 healthy horses and 10 mules. Subsequently, the images were analyzed using the GH tool to acquire the variables Mean (echogenicity) and Standard deviation (StdDev) (ecotexture). It was observed that mules showed higher values of brightness intensity (Mean) than horses. Differences were observed between superficial and deep IM, and the deep wall showed higher echogenicity and heterogeneity in both the equine species and in the mule hybrid. The GH proved to be a viable tool to quantify the echogenicity and echotexture of the walls (superficial and deep) of the palmar and plantar digital arteries of horses and mules. In addition, it allowed to highlight the differences found between animals (horses and mules) and IM (superficial and deep).
Rescue of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha-deficient tumor growth by wild-type cells is independent of vascular endothelial growth factor

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

In tumors, rapid cell proliferation associated with deficient vascularization leads to areas of hypoxia. Tumor hypoxia has direct consequences on clinical and prognostic parameters and is a potential therapeutic target. The hypoxic response depends critically on hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) in pathological (e.g., tumorigenesis) as well as physiological (e.g., development and wound healing) processes. By s.c. injection of HIF-1alpha(-/-) embryonic stem (ES) cells in nude mice, we were able to demonstrate the role of HIF-1alpha in cell differentiation of teratocarcinomas. HIF-1alpha(+/+) tumors grow fast and preferentially form neuronal tissue, whereas HIF-1alpha(-/-) tumors show delayed growth and favorably form mesenchyme-derived tissue. Mixing wild-type and HIF-1alpha(-/-) ES cells in the same tumor at a ratio as low as 1:100, we showed that HIF-1alpha(+/+) cells can rescue the growth of mixed tumors although these tumors are not significantly different phenotypically or genotypically from the original HIF-1alpha(-/-) tumors. Interestingly, these results are not restricted to teratocarcinomas: they were confirmed with mixtures of Hepa1/Hepa1C4 cells (where HIF-1beta is mutated), demonstrating that growth changes are not related to differences in differentiation observed within teratocarcinomas. We also showed that despite lower mRNA expression, vascular endothelial growth factor protein status in HIF-1alpha(-/-) and mixed tumors does not significantly differ from the HIF-1alpha(+/+) tumors. Moreover, we demonstrated that tumor vascularization remains proportional to vascular endothelial growth factor protein levels, but that hypoxic up-regulation of this growth factor is not the decisive factor influencing tumor growth. Differences in levels of apoptosis are not responsible for alteration in growth because poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage, a hallmark of the apoptotic process, was similar in HIF-1alpha(+/+), HIF-1alpha(-/-), and mixed tumors. Our data demonstrate that the HIF-1alpha-dependent response of a few cells is capable of sustaining the growth of the whole tumor, probably through the secretion of factors up-regulated under low oxygen conditions.
Case 3537 athetini Casey, 1910 and geostibina Seevers, 1978 (Insecta, Coleoptera, staphylinidae, aleocharinae): proposed conservation

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The purpose of this application, under Article 23.9.3 of the Code, is to conserve the family-group names athetini Casey, 1910 and geostibina Seevers, 1978 for a group of rove beetles. The names are threatened by a little used senior synonym callicerini Jakobson, 1908. The name athetini Casey, 1910 has become widely accepted and is in prevailing usage. The names callicerini Jakobson, 1908 (Insecta, Coleoptera) and callicerini Rondani, 1845 (Insecta, Diptera) are homonyms resulting from similarity of the names of their type genera, Callicerus Gravenhorst, 1802 and Callicera Panzer, 1809, respectively. This homonymy should be removed as required by Article 55.3.1 of the Code. It is proposed that the name callicerini Jakobson, 1908 be suppressed.
Impact Of Work Life Balance On The Well-Being Of Pharmacist In Various Pharmaceutical Sectors

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Work-life balance (WLB) describes the ideal of splitting one's time and energy between work and other important aspects of their life. This study would benefit individuals and organizations to have a deeper understanding of the importance of a healthy balance between work and family demands and their effects on people’s wellbeing and organization’s performance. Quantitative research method was used, and respondents were selected through convenient sampling technique. The survey questionnaire with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.87 was distributed to 150 respondents but only 138 were returned giving an overall returning rate of 92%. From the gathered data it was found that “flexibility in time” as the most available work-life balance benefits, while “socializing and leisure activities during weekend in order to maintain family relationship” were the problem frequently experienced. However, “respondents’ time needed at home” is the most conflict that interferes at work while, “work related duties” sometimes create a conflict with family activities. In conclusion, Work-life balance does not have impact on Family Satisfaction (r=0.11953) and Work Satisfaction (0.08541) but has minimal impact with Psychological Health (0.28).
An application of the whale optimization algorithm with Levy flight strategy for clustering of medical datasets

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Clustering, which is handled by many researchers, is separating data into clusters without supervision. In clustering, the data are grouped using similarities or differences between them. Many traditional and heuristic algorithms are used in clustering problems and new techniques continue to be developed today. In this study, a new and effective clustering algorithm was developed by using the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Levy flight (LF) strategy that imitates the hunting behavior of whales. With the developed WOA-LF algorithm, clustering was performed using ten medical datasets taken from the UCI Machine Learning Repository database. The clustering performance of the WOA-LF was compared with the performance of k-means, k-medoids, fuzzy c-means and the original WOA clustering algorithms. Application results showed that WOA-LF has more successful clustering performance in general and can be used as an alternative algorithm in clustering problems.
Hot quark matter and merger remnants

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

This work investigates hot quark matter under the thermodynamic conditions characteristic of a binary neutron star (BNS) merger remnants. We used the density-dependent quark mass model (DDQM) to access the microscopic nuclear equation of state (EoS) in a series of snapshots. The strange quark matter (SQM) is studied at finite temperature and entropy, in the presence of electrons and muons and their corresponding neutrinos to simulate the BNS merger conditions. For the first time, we introduced temperature into the DDQM model using a lattice QCD-motivated approach to construct both isentropic and isothermal EoSs. We observe that as the entropy of the SQM increases, the merger remnant becomes more massive and increases in size, whereas the neutrino abundance also increases. In the fixed-temperature case, on the other hand, we observe that the entropy spreads from the surface towards the center of the remnant. We determine the particle distribution in the core of the remnants, the structure of the remnant, the temperature profile, sound velocity, and the polytropic index, and discuss their effects. The strange-quark star (SQS) remnants satisfy the $2\,{\rm M_\odot}$ mass constraint associated with neutron stars (NS).
