Title: Current practice, knowledge, beliefs, and confidence level of nurse practitioners in the state of Florida on tongue and lip ties before and after an educational module.
Creator: Fornal, Kayla N
Abstract/Description: Purpose: Tongue and/or lip ties (TT/LT) occur in 2-11% of infants and contribute to breastfeeding difficulties, speech delays, and dental conditions. The purpose of this project was to identify the current practice, knowledge, beliefs, and confidence level of nurse practitioners (APRNs) in Florida who care for infants regarding identification, symptoms, and treatment options for TT/LT; and to examine how these constructs change after completing an educational module on TT/LT.

Show morePurpose: Tongue and/or lip ties (TT/LT) occur in 2-11% of infants and contribute to breastfeeding difficulties, speech delays, and dental conditions. The purpose of this project was to identify the current practice, knowledge, beliefs, and confidence level of nurse practitioners (APRNs) in Florida who care for infants regarding identification, symptoms, and treatment options for TT/LT; and to examine how these constructs change after completing an educational module on TT/LT. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional project was employed, with a self-selected nonprobability sample. APRNs who care for infants in Florida were recruited via online sources. An educational module was developed with a pre/post survey measuring APRN practice, knowledge, beliefs, and confidence levels regarding TT/LT. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data.Results: Forty-six APRNs completed the pre-survey. Most participants (78.1%) report inadequacies in education regarding TT/LT and 82.6% of participants agree that TT/LT are associated with breastfeeding difficulties. Most participants diagnose TT/LT, but 91% do not perform release procedures. Less than 35% of participants follow any guidelines regarding the management of tongue and lip ties. All participants found the educational module beneficial.Discussion: Findings from this project are consistent with the literature; increased awareness of TT/LT is needed. The lack of education reported by APRNs in this sample confirm that an educational module may meet this knowledge gap. Limitations to this study, such as a low number of post-module survey responses, limited the ability to evaluate benefit of the educational module.Conclusion: APRNs in this study recognize the importance of identifying TT/LT to prevent breastfeeding difficulties, however, lack of education in assessing and managing TT/LT was evident. Future research should identify how to implement an educational module in larger sample and validate benefit by examining change in APRN practice, knowledge, beliefs, and confidence in assessing and managing TT/LT.

Methods: A cross sectional-survey was used to understand screening practices of bedside RNs. A convenience sample of RNs, licensed in Florida, were recruited through the state Board of Nursing. They were emailed the purpose, consent, and modified PREMIS (Physician Readiness to Manage Intimate Partner Violence Survey) survey. Results: Out of 176,000 emailed, 808 bedside RNs responded. Results indicated that 25.7% had over 11 hours of DV training and 60.9% felt moderately to well prepared to screen for DV. Conversely, 57.7% reported that they knew none, to moderate number of appropriate screening questions, and 34.2% believed victims could not make appropriate decisions. Moreover, few RNs knew Joint Commission standards (35.7%), believed they had sufficient resources (39.1%), received enough training (20.9%), and screened patients regularly (45%). Finally, RNs reported significant barriers to DV screening, like lack of time (66.6%), private locations (21.5%), no protocols (60.6%), and unfamiliarity with protocols (55.7%). Discussion: Registered nurses are lacking in consistency and frequency of screening for DV. Their knowledge of DV screening, resources, and signs of abuse are also deficient. An effective screening tool and implementation, and adherence to workplace policies are needed in acute care settings to improve screening consistency, frequency, and knowledge, and remove perceived barriers. Conclusions: Workplaces should provide employees with expectations, training, and effective screening methods for DV. These are essential to improve DV screening by bedside RNs.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two methods for teaching critical thinking (CT) skills to communication sciences and disorders students. It was hypothesized that a short course of critical thinking training would result in improved student scores on CT assessments. Also, it was hypothesized that students taught using a mixed instruction method would exhibit more improvement in their CT skills. The research involved a pre- and post-test comparison of students who completed 10 weeks of critical thinking instruction. The students had either a mix of direct instruction of CT concepts with problem-based learning communication sciences and disorders (CSD) examples or infused problem-based learning CT instruction. With CSD based problems. The pre- and post-tests consisted of a general and a content specific CT assessment. All of the students exhibited improved scores on both CT measures. In addition, the students who had the mixed instruction exhibited greater improvements. The greatest improvements for all students occurred for the trained CT skills. These results indicate that both mixed and infused instruction can be effective in teaching students CT skills, however, the mixed instruction was more effective.

Show morePurpose: The purpose of this project was to create an evidence-based toolkit to guide local community leaders in the planning process of establishing Aging-in-Place initiatives. The toolkit highlights best practices for key components of Aging-in-Place infrastructures that provide sufficient support to allow older adults to remain in their homes as they age. Methods: Toolkit development was based on an integrative literature review, interviews with research experts and community leaders of aging-in-place initiatives in the U.S., organizational resources on healthy aging and aging-in-place initiatives, and identified needs of local older adults. Results: Major themes in the literature were skilled healthcare professionals, modifications to the home environment, the importance of social engagement, and sustainability of aging-in-place initiatives. Similar themes were identified in the interviews but were more focused on the structure and characteristics of successful aging-in-place programs, including funding, community support and partnerships, leadership, program services and sustainability.Discussion: This toolkit can be utilized by aging-in-place leaders in Tallahassee to develop and maintain a program to provide support that allows to older adults to remain in their homes as they age. This will not only decrease the strain on the local healthcare system but improve the quality of life of elderly residents by allowing them to remain independent and maintain meaningful social relationships in their community. Conclusions: A growing demand for innovative ideas to address the expanding utilization of healthcare services exists due to consequences of aging such as the development of chronic disease and decreased physical mobility. The fact that Florida ranks last in the country in providing long-term care services and support for older adults should spark immediate action by state government officials (AARP, 2020). Research has demonstrated that aging-in-place programs are cost-effective, provide superior outcomes, as well as improve the quality of life of older adults.Major Professor: Eileen Cormier, PhD, RN

Title: Humanizing Augmented Reality with Lumin.
Creator: DiRienzo, Megan, Montiel de Shuman, Andrea, Viera, Alicia
Abstract/Description: Art museums are packed with objects that connect us to the creativity of human beings from around the globe and throughout time. So, why—in this media-saturated world that confuses fiction with fact—would museums choose to disrupt this authentic connection to humanity with a handheld device that augments reality? The formative evaluation of Lumin, an augmented reality (AR) tour at the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), revealed some compelling reasons.

Show moreDuring recent years, a growing number of art museums and galleries have experimented with innovative approaches to exhibition development to create more meaningful visitor experiences. However, although commendable, their efforts to make exhibitions visitor-centered have still not been consistent, partially due to the lack of existing models for practice for these kinds of projects. This chapter focuses on supported interpretation (SI), a model for developing visitor-centered exhibitions that can help museum professionals better advocate for their audiences, engage community members in the process of exhibition development, and turn visitors into active participants who feel empowered to share content during their museum visits. The authors dive deeply into the guidelines for implementing SI, discuss prior iterations of the model, share lessons learned, and explore new scenarios in order to provide current and future art museum educators and interpretive planners with an easy-to-follow roadmap for developing successful visitor-centered SI exhibitions.

An opportunity arose to transition the popular public program to an annually scheduled exhibition which would provide increased staff support, a larger budget, and dedicated gallery space, among other resources, ensuring that this community-based project would continue for generations. In this case study, we share a brief history of the program, provide overviews of the museum’s visitor-centered practices and the supported interpretation model, and describe how the 2016 exhibition was planned and developed. We conclude with visitor attendance, satisfaction and engagement data, and reflections by some of the participants, which shed light on the impact of the exhibition, its importance, and the opportunities that lie ahead for the project. Our hope is to inspire other museum professionals to explore interpretive engagement and visitor-centered exhibition practices to create more engaging and participatory experiences for visitors.

Show moreThis paper describes one possible origin point for fraudulent behavior within the American pharmaceutical industry. We argue that during the late nineteenth century therapeutic reformers sought to promote both laboratory science and increasingly systematized forms of clinical experiment as a new basis for therapeutic knowledge. This process was intertwined with a transformation in the ethical framework in which medical science took place, one in which monopoly status was replaced by clinical utility as the primary arbiter of pharmaceutical legitimacy. This new framework fundamentally altered the set of epistemic virtues-a phrase we draw from the philosophical field of virtue epistemology-considered necessary to conduct reliable scientific inquiry regarding drugs. In doing so, it also made possible new forms of fraud in which newly emergent epistemic virtues were violated. To make this argument, we focus on the efforts of Francis E. Stewart and George S. Davis of Parke, Davis & Company. Therapeutic reformers within the pharmaceutical industry, such as Stewart and Davis, were an important part of the broader normative and epistemic transformation we describe in that they sought to promote laboratory science and systematized clinical trials toward the twin goals of improving pharmaceutical science and promoting their own commercial interests. Yet, as we suggest, Parke, Davis & Company also serves as an example of a company that violated the very norms that Stewart and Davis helped introduce. We thus seek to describe one possible origin point for the widespread fraudulent practices that now characterize the pharmaceutical industry. We also seek to describe an origin point for why we conceptualize such practices as fraudulent in the first place.

Show moreGram-scale insects, such as cockroaches, take advantage of the mechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system to enable rapid and robust running. Engineering gram-scale robots, much like their biological counterparts, comes with inherent constraints on resources due to their small sizes. Resource-constrained robots are generally limited in their computational complexity, making controlled, high-speed locomotion a challenge, especially in unstructured environments. In this paper we show that embedding control into the leg mechanics of robots, similarly to cockroaches, results in predictable dynamics from an open-loop control strategy that can be modified through material choice. Tuning the mechanical properties of gram-scale robot legs promotes high-speed, stable running, reducing the need for active control. We utilize a torque-driven damped spring-loaded inverted pendulum model to explore the behavior and the design space of a spring-damper leg at this scale. The resulting design maps show the trade-offs in performance goals, such as speed and efficiency, with stability, as well as the sensitivity in performance to the leg properties and the control input. Finally, we demonstrate experimental results with magnetically actuated quadrupedal gram-scale robots, incorporating viscoelastic legs and demonstrating speeds up to 11.7 body lengths per second.

Show moreTo combat the declining number of finishers plaguing the distance-running industry, it is increasingly important for organizers to optimize event satisfaction levels. Participants' survey responses from two distance-running events (n(1) = 2,324 and n(2) = 2,526) were analyzed to challenge the traditional managerial scope and theoretical lens through which event satisfaction is conventionally examined. Results revealed five event benefits that capture key motivational antecedents of event satisfaction. Collectively, these benefits, including euphoric, fitness, competition, social, and entertainment benefits, influenced event satisfaction levels (R-2 = 43%) and repeat consumption intentions (R-2 = 23%). For event organizers to foster event satisfaction, it is central to encourage event preparation and participation that promotes the enjoyment of physical activity, fitness and appearance enhancement, socialization, competition, and excitement among registrants. Academics should also extend their scope of event satisfaction to fully capture the entirety of event experience lifecycles (e.g., from registration through event participation).

Our work also showed the distance between the coil and the melt surface had little effect on the grain sizes refined. Therefore, in ingot production, the dropping of melt surface is not a problem for PMO application.

This study attempts to develop a prediction model for identifying cyberbullying "hotspots" by analyzing the manifestation of charged language on Twitter. A total of 140,000 tweets were collected using a Twitter API during September 2019. The study reports that certain charged language in tweets can indicate a high potential for cyberbullying incidents. Cyberbullies tend to share negative emotion, demonstrate anger, and use abusive words to attack victims. The predictor variables related to "biology," "sexual," and "swear" can be further used to differentiate cyberbullies from non-cyberbullies. The study contributes to the detection of cyberbullying "hotspots," by providing an approach to identify a tendency for cyberbullying activity based on computational analysis of charged language. The contribution is significant for mediation agenciesdsuch as school counseling and law enforcement agencies. (C) 2020 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Show moreTracking students' learning states to provide tailored learner support is a critical element of an adaptive learning system. This study explores how an automatic assessment is capable of tracking learners' cognitive and emotional states during virtual reality (VR)-based representational-flexibility training. This VR-based training program aims to promote the flexibility of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in interpreting, selecting and creating multimodal representations during STEM-related design problem solving. For the automatic assessment, we used both natural language processing (NLP) and machine-learning techniques to develop a multi-label classification model. We then trained the model with the data from a total of audio- and video-recorded 66 training sessions of four adolescents with ASD. To validate the model, we implemented both k-fold cross-validations and the manual evaluations by expert reviewers. The study finding suggests the feasibility of implementing the NLP and machine-learning driven automatic assessment to track and assess the cognitive and emotional states of individuals with ASD during VR-based flexibility training. The study finding also denotes the importance and viability of providing adaptive supports to maintain learners' cognitive and affective engagement in a highly interactive digital learning environment.

Show moreThe creative destruction inherent in a capitalist economy enables entrepreneurial individuals to get ahead, but threatens those who want to stay ahead. Those who want to get ahead benefit from the continual evolution that characterizes a market economy, whereas those who want to stay ahead prefer stability and want to establish institutions that preserve the status quo. Those who want to stay ahead push for government regulations, subsidies, differential tax benefits, and other politically generated protections that preserve the status quo and inhibit creative destruction. Long-established firms have an advantage in doing so because they tend to have more financial resources to devote to rent-seeking, and often have long-standing political connections. To prevent capitalist institutions from being undermined by those who want to stay ahead requires a robust entrepreneurial class that can give those who want to get ahead sufficient political influence to counter those who want to stay ahead.

Show moreThin-walled tubes that classically form when metal salts react with sodium silicate solution are known as chemical gardens. They share similarities with the porous, catalytic materials in hydrothermal vent chimneys, and both structures are exposed to steep pH gradients that, combined with thermal factors, might have provided the free energy for prebiotic chemistry on early Earth. We report temperature effects on the shape, composition, and opacity of chemical gardens. Tubes grown at high temperature are more opaque, indicating changes to the membrane structure or thickness. To study this dependence, we developed a temperature-controlled microfluidic device, which allows the formation of analogous membranes at the interface of two coflowing reactant solutions. For the case of Ni(OH)2, membranes thicken according to a diffusion-controlled mechanism. In the studied range of 10–40 degree Celsius, the effective diffusion coefficient is independent of temperature. This suggests that counteracting processes are at play (including an increased solubility) and that the opacity of chemical garden tubes arises from changes in internal morphology. The latter could be linked to experimentally observed dendritic structures within the membranes.

Show moreThis annual review of the career counseling and development literature presents a content analysis of refereed journal articles published in 2013. Four research questions guided the analysis: (a) What content topics were included in career development articles published in refereed journals in 2013?, (b) To what extent are theory, research, and practice integrated in career development articles published in refereed journals in 2013?, (c) What variation exists in the characteristics of career development articles published in refereed journals in 2013?, and (d) What variation exists in the content included in theory, research, and practice articles? A total of 360 unique topics were identified in 357 articles from 24 journals. Results indicated that topic content in journals evolved slowly with limited integration of theory, research, and practice. Implications are suggested for: (a) future topic content, (b) better integration of theory, research, and practice, (c) education and training, (d) journal editorial policy, and (e) future content analyses of journal articles.

Title: Unscented Kalman Filter (ukf)-based Nonlinear Parameter Estimation For A Turbulent Boundary Layer: A Data Assimilation Framework.
Creator: Pan, Zhao, Zhang, Yang, Gustavsson, Jonas P. R., Hickey, Jean-Pierre, Cattafesta, Louis N.
Abstract/Description: A turbulent boundary layer is a ubiquitous element of fundamental and applied fluid mechanics. Unfortunately, accurate measurements of turbulent boundary layer parameters (e.g. friction velocityu tau tau(w)) are challenging, especially for high-speed flows (Smitset al2011). Many direct and/or indirect diagnostic techniques have been developed to measure wall shear stress (Vinuesaet al2017).

Show moreA turbulent boundary layer is a ubiquitous element of fundamental and applied fluid mechanics. Unfortunately, accurate measurements of turbulent boundary layer parameters (e.g. friction velocityu tau tau(w)) are challenging, especially for high-speed flows (Smitset al2011). Many direct and/or indirect diagnostic techniques have been developed to measure wall shear stress (Vinuesaet al2017). However, based on various principles, these techniques generally give different results with varying uncertainties. The current study introduces a nonlinear data assimilation framework based on the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) that can fuse information from (i) noisy and discretized measurements from stereo particle image velocimetry (SPIV), a Preston tube, and a MEMS shear stress sensor, as well as (ii) the uncertainties of the measurements to estimate the parameters of a turbulent boundary layer. A direct numerical simulation of a fully developed turbulent channel flow is used first to validate the data assimilation algorithm. The algorithm is then applied to experimental boundary layer data at Mach 0.3 obtained in a blowdown wind tunnel facility. Drag coefficients from control volume analysis of the SPIV and wall pressure data and laser interferometer skin friction measurements are used for independent cross-validation. The UKF-based data assimilation algorithm is robust to the uncertain and discretized experimental data and is able to provide accurate estimates of turbulent boundary layer parameters with quantified uncertainty.

Show morePolyelectrolyte complexes or coacervates, PECs, represent one of the many families of ion-containing polymers proposed or in use for applications requiring mobile ions, including fuel cells, water purification, and rechargeable batteries. Interest in these materials has focused on how ion transport is coupled to, and limited by, polymer dynamics, which slow considerably below the glass transition, T-g. Unlike many other polymer systems, ion conductivity in hydrated PECs remains high above and below T-g. In this work, we investigate the transport of water and ions within a PEC as the polymer host passes through T-g. We find no evidence of a response in the transport of water and small univalent ions, such as Na+ and Cl-, as the hydrated PEC goes through T-g. In contrast, triple-charged ions ferricyanide and ruthenium hexamine experience a second-order change in transport rate at T-g. This response is interpreted to show that these ions engage enough polyelectrolyte repeat units to experience the highly localized cooperative rearrangement thought to be responsible for the glass transition.

Title: Low-order Estimation Of The Velocity, Hydrodynamic Pressure, And Acoustic Radiation For A Three-dimensional Turbulent Wall Jet.

Abstract/Description: A method for the experimental characterization of the velocity, hydrodynamic pressure, and acoustic generation in a subsonic (Re-H = 25, 500), three-dimensional, turbulent wall jet is presented. An acoustic analogy formulated for the turbulent wall jet shows that the far-field acoustics relate to the Reynolds stress fluctuations of the velocity field or the product of the hydrodynamic pressure fluctuations and the rate-of-strain field.

Show moreA method for the experimental characterization of the velocity, hydrodynamic pressure, and acoustic generation in a subsonic (Re-H = 25, 500), three-dimensional, turbulent wall jet is presented. An acoustic analogy formulated for the turbulent wall jet shows that the far-field acoustics relate to the Reynolds stress fluctuations of the velocity field or the product of the hydrodynamic pressure fluctuations and the rate-of-strain field. As these quantities cannot be measured directly with sufficient resolution, low-order reconstructions of the velocity field based on the use of the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition and Stochastic Estimation are developed. Reconstruction of the three-dimensional field is accomplished using spanwise-aligned, stereoscopic particle image velocimetry measurements, obtained at 16 streamwise locations synchronously with an array of 32 surface pressure transducers. The velocity field reconstruction is then used to calculate the fluctuating pressure field (via Poisson's equation) allowing for the evaluation of coupled pressure-velocity terms in addition to an acoustic analogy for the acoustic far-field. Application of these methods show that the large-scale motion throughout the shear layer is captured by the velocity and hydrodynamic pressure field estimates and features of the acoustic far-field are recovered.

Show moreAvailable high-resolution crystal structures for the family of beta-trefoil proteins in the structural databank were queried for buried waters. Such waters were classified as either: (a) unique to a particular domain, family, or superfamily or (b) conserved among all beta-trefoil folds. Three buried waters conserved among all beta-trefoil folds were identified. These waters are related by the threefold rotational pseudosymmetry characteristic of this protein architecture (representing three instances of an identical structural environment within each repeating trefoil-fold motif). The structural properties of this buried water are remarkable and include: residing in a cavity space no larger than a single water molecule, exhibiting a positional uncertainty (i.e., normalized B-factor) substantially lower than the average C alpha atom, providing essentially ideal H-bonding geometry with three solvent-inaccessible main chain groups, simultaneously serving as a bridging H-bond for three different beta-strands at a point of secondary structure divergence, and orienting conserved hydrophobic side chains to form a nascent core-packing group. Other published work supports an interpretation that these interactions are key to the formation of an efficient folding nucleus and folded thermostability. The fundamental threefold symmetric structural element of the beta-trefoil fold is therefore, surprisingly, a buried water molecule.

Title: Precision Doping of Polyelectrolyte Complexes: Insight on the Role of Ions.
Creator: Schlenoff, Joseph
Abstract/Description: The properties of polyelectrolyte complexes and coacervates, both termed PECs, are influenced strongly by their ion and water content. Water plasticizes PECs, reducing their modulus and glass transition temperature, Tg. In this work, a hydrated PEC with a Tg near room temperature, made from poly(diallyldimethylammonium), PDADMA, and poly(styrene sulfonate), PSS, was precisely doped with 22Na-labeled sodium salts along a Hofmeister series.

Show moreThe properties of polyelectrolyte complexes and coacervates, both termed PECs, are influenced strongly by their ion and water content. Water plasticizes PECs, reducing their modulus and glass transition temperature, Tg. In this work, a hydrated PEC with a Tg near room temperature, made from poly(diallyldimethylammonium), PDADMA, and poly(styrene sulfonate), PSS, was precisely doped with 22Na-labeled sodium salts along a Hofmeister series. A distinctive change in the rate of doping versus added salt concentration was observed for all salts. This transition was interpreted to reflect a change in ion-accessible volume coinciding with a change in the role of added salt from counterions for the polyelectrolytes, paired directly and within one water molecule of the charge on the polymer backbone, to a mix of counterions and co-ions, which do not have a specific location within the PEC. Isothermal calorimety for PEC made in, and doped by, NaCl showed two clear regions for enthaply change, ΔH, before and after the doping transition. The higher ΔH region was correlated with the counterion role, an indirect measure of the location of ions within the PEC

Additionally, this project will explore how the patient’s length of stay in the recovery varies across demographic factors. This project may be beneficial since the goal of the surgery center is to provide patients minimum sedation to facilitate the procedure effectively and promote successful discharge to home with the shortest recovery stay.Methods: This study is a descriptive and cross-sectional retrospective chart review performed at the Emerald Coast Surgery Center in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. 232 patient charts were selected based on the inclusion criteria: 15 years and older and received gabapentin preoperatively from January 2018 to April 2020. The association of preoperative gabapentin on postoperative pain relief, level of sedation, and length of stay in the recovery room across patients’ demographic factors examined.Results: There is no clinically significant difference among gabapentin dosages and postoperative pain scores, sedation level, but the mean length of stay increases with the higher dosages of gabapentin. Among other demographic factors, the age of 66 and older for all three gabapentin dosages reported the longest mean length of stay in the recovery room.Discussion: Findings from this project may support the prolonged sedating effect of gabapentin, which delays discharge from the recovery room. Conclusions: Preoperative use of gabapentin may decrease the pain. However, there were no dose-related effects on better relief. Higher doses of gabapentin increase the length of stay in the recovery, which indicates future studies related to possible factors that may lead to a longer stay in the recovery room.

Title: Social work and the necessity of open access.
Creator: Dunleavy, Daniel J.
Abstract/Description: Access to research and scholarship is essential for the practice of social work and the development of intra- and interdisciplinary knowledge. Therefore “open access” is a necessity for the field of social work to function and thrive. This post explores some of these issues and makes suggestions for how the field may make its knowledge and tools more open. The consequences of this are non-negligible, as greater access will arguably aid in solving society’s most pressing problems.

Show moreWe present spectral analysis modal methods (SAMMs) to perform POD in the frequency domain using non-time-resolved Particle Image Velocity (PIV) data combined with unsteady surface pressure measurements. In particular, time-resolved unsteady surface pressure measurements are synchronized with non time-resolved planar PIV measurements acquired at 15 Hz in a Mach 0.6 cavity flow. Leveraging the spectral linear stochastic estimation (LSE) method of Tinney et al (2006), we first estimate the cross correlations between the velocity eld and the unsteady pressure sensors via sequential time shifts, followed by a Fast Fourier transform to obtain the pressure-velocity cross spectral density matrix. This leads to a linear multiple-input / multiple-output (MIMO) model that determines the optimal transfer functions between the input cavity wall pressure and the output velocity eld. Two variants of SAMMs are developed and applied. The first, termed \SAMM-SPOD", combines the MIMO model with the SPOD algorithm of Towne et al (2018). The second, called \SAMM-RR", adds independent sources and uses a sorted eigendecomposition of the input pressure cross-spectral matrix to enable an efficient reduced rank eigendecomposition of the velocity cross-spectral matrix. In both cases, the resulting rank-1 POD eigenvalues associated with the Rossiter frequencies exhibit very good agreement with those obtained using independent time-resolved PIV measurements. The results demonstrate that SAMMs provide a methodology to perform space-time POD without requiring a high-speed PIV system, while avoiding potential pitfalls associated with traditional time-domain LSE.

Show moreTracking students’ learning states to provide tailored learner support is a critical element of an adaptive learning system. This study explores how an automatic assessment is capable of tracking learners’ cognitive and emotional states during virtual reality (VR)-based representational-flexibility training. This VR-based training program aims to promote the flexibility of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in interpreting, selecting, and creating multimodal representations during STEM-related design problem-solving. For the automatic assessment, we used both natural language processing (NLP) and machine-learning techniques to develop a multi-label classification model. We then trained the model with the data from a total of audio- and video-recorded 66 training sessions of four adolescents with ASD. To validate the model, we implemented both k-fold cross-validations and the manual evaluations by expert reviewers. The study finding suggests the feasibility of implementing the NLP and machine-learning driven automatic assessment to track and assess the cognitive and emotional states of individuals with ASD during VR-based flexibility training. The study finding also denotes the importance and viability of providing adaptive supports to maintain learners’ cognitive and affective engagement in a highly interactive digital learning environment.

Since that time, hundreds of scholarly works in the form of conceptual and empirical articles, book chapters, and so forth, have been written on the key elements of CIP theory. In fact, Brown (2015) stated that “probably the most widely studied career interventions have been those devel-oped” from CIP theory (p. 62). CIP has been well-cited since its development, with 188 peer-reviewed articles and 350-plus total scholarly works (Sampson, Reardon, Peterson, & Lenz, 2019). The majority of these scholarly works are from the United States; however, several are from international contributors. In addition, the Center for the Study of Technology in Counsel-ling and Development (https://career.fsu.edu/tech-center/about-us), which focuses on exploring and building upon CIP theory and practice, has hosted 47 international visitors with interest in research and application of CIP theory. These contacts have shared via scholarly work as well as anecdotally about the impact of applying CIP in their settings.

Show morePurpose: The purpose of this project was to identify primary care providers’ self-perceived knowledge, confidence, attitudes, and barriers to providing nutritional counseling to patients with lifestyle-related chronic illness. Determining where knowledge deficits exist in order to assist in establishing the need to incorporate nutrition education within medical curricula. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional designed study was employed, with a convenience sample, and used an online assessment survey that was distributed through the Florida Department of Health (DOH) public database via Qualtrics targeting licensed Primary Care Providers in the state of Florida. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data for examination of the project aims.Results: Positive attitudes towards incorporating nutritional counseling in the management of patients living with diet-related chronic conditions were found, yet despite this awareness, a majority of providers offered nutritional counseling to their patients’ half the time, rarely, or never; and when provided, the amount of time spent discussing nutrition with their patients was reported as 5 minutes or less. Providers expressed the continued need for further nutrition education and training to support them in their current role.Implications: To improve providers nutrition knowledge and confidence and increase nutritional counseling within practice, an expansion of nutritional education in medical and advanced practice nursing curricula is warranted. This project focused on primary care providers self-perception of their nutrition confidence, knowledge, and attitudes, but other specialties should be considered in future research as nutritional counseling does not solely take place within the primary care setting.

Title: Event-Related Potential Correlates of Emotional Processing in a Rapid Picture-Viewing Paradigm.
Creator: Bucello, Brianna Elise
Abstract/Description: Extensive research and evolutionary theory have shown that humans have evolved to selectively attend to and process emotionally evocative stimuli. In order to examine the underlying neurobiology of affective processing, researchers have examined the early posterior negativity (EPN) and the late positive potential (LPP), two event-related potentials (ERPs) reflecting, respectively, early visual processing and subsequent evaluative processing of salient affective stimuli. Externalizing...
Show moreExtensive research and evolutionary theory have shown that humans have evolved to selectively attend to and process emotionally evocative stimuli. In order to examine the underlying neurobiology of affective processing, researchers have examined the early posterior negativity (EPN) and the late positive potential (LPP), two event-related potentials (ERPs) reflecting, respectively, early visual processing and subsequent evaluative processing of salient affective stimuli. Externalizing proneness, dispositional tendencies towards negative behaviors to the outside world, is a commonly researched aspect in accordance with emotion regulation. This current study examined these ERPs within a rapid picture-viewing (RPV) paradigm to delineate how affective processing of emotionally evocative stimuli are impacted by the valence of prior and subsequent stimuli (i.e. serial affective processing). Additionally, the current study examined the relationship between externalizing proneness and these ERP indices of serial affective processing. More specifically, the RPV paradigm used in this study examined affective processing ERPs while participants passively viewed a series of 819 pictures from the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) displayed at a rate of 3 pictures per-second. Past research and a major focus of this study, have also suggested that ERPs derived from the rapid picture-viewing task relate to externalizing proneness and fear disorders such as PTSD and anxiety. Additionally, data analyses suggest a significant reduction in LPP responses and enhanced EPN responses in high externalizing prone individuals.

Title: Fortifying Hate: How Social Media Acts as a Tool for White Supremacist Groups.
Creator: Bloomer, Allison
Abstract/Description: In this paper, I seek to gain a better understanding of the alt right presence on YouTube. This research focuses on two particular YouTube channels hosted by the alt-right figures, Stefan Molyneux and Hunter Avallone. Videos published during the 2019 calendar year from both channels are analyzed for content and videos are placed into categories. From there, the categories are subdivided into ‘institutional political’ and ‘social issue’ based on content. T-tests for both channels examine the...
Show moreIn this paper, I seek to gain a better understanding of the alt right presence on YouTube. This research focuses on two particular YouTube channels hosted by the alt-right figures, Stefan Molyneux and Hunter Avallone. Videos published during the 2019 calendar year from both channels are analyzed for content and videos are placed into categories. From there, the categories are subdivided into ‘institutional political’ and ‘social issue’ based on content. T-tests for both channels examine the significance of engagement with each category of content. Engagement in this research is based on exact numerical value of views, likes, and comments received on each YouTube video.The alt-right is not only a growing movement, but it is also crossing over into more mainstream media. With this, tolerance for alt-right rhetoric expands and fringe groups can follow their lead. The 2016 election was a pivotal moment for the alt-right in American politics. Since then, the alt-right has been working towards securing their movement and beliefs as a legitimate political stance. Mainstream attention for the alt-right has allowed the group to expand and recruit. The most prominent way this is carried out is through social media.The consideration must be made that, although referred to as the “alt-right”, the movement is a loose collection of smaller groups with no formal organization nor leadership. The alt-right is not a political party, there is no centralized power, nor is there an established, shared platform.Overall, the results show that the alt-right YouTube channels which were studied produce a wide variety of content which includes humor, self-help, and slighter levels of political commentary. YouTube viewers did not seem consistently more or less drawn to content focusing on institutional political topics than content focusing on other social issues. However, the variety of content offered is itself a takeaway of just how diverse and compelling the alt-right can be in its social media platforms.

Title: Examining the Link Between Pain and Suicidal Capability Using Virtual Reality as the Translational Approach.
Creator: Sosa, Jaylene
Abstract/Description: In prior literature regarding suicide, physical pain has been long implicated as a risk factor for suicide. Popular view has suggested that individuals who are exposed to pain may have an increased capability of suicide. However, it is unclear how the experience of pain and the likelihood of engaging in suicide are linked to each other. One possibility, as proposed by several suicide theories, could be that people who have developed a higher tolerance for pain (e.g., via repeated exposures to...
Show moreIn prior literature regarding suicide, physical pain has been long implicated as a risk factor for suicide. Popular view has suggested that individuals who are exposed to pain may have an increased capability of suicide. However, it is unclear how the experience of pain and the likelihood of engaging in suicide are linked to each other. One possibility, as proposed by several suicide theories, could be that people who have developed a higher tolerance for pain (e.g., via repeated exposures to pain) may be at increased risk for suicide (e.g., Joiner 2005). Due to ethical and methodological constraints, there is a significant scarcity in research that examines the underlying processes linking pain and suicidal behaviors. Our study aimed to use a novel approach of virtual reality (VR) suicide scenarios and a lab-induced pain stimulation task to examine the link between pain and virtual reality suicide decision. Participants (N=164) went through: (1) pain calibration to assess their tolerable pain level (unless assigned to a neutral condition) and (2) virtual reality suicide scenarios where they were given the option to choose to engage in VR suicide or the alternative with mild pain manipulation applied. We aimed to examine whether the participants' suicide decision in the VR scenario was related to pain manipulation, and if their pain threshold could potentially affect the virtual reality suicide decision (emergence of suicide). The difference among the groups was minor as the administration of pain did not cause any significant changes in the participants engagement in suicide compared to the control group (χ2 = 2.58, p = .108).

Title: The Bilingual Brain: Investigating the Impact of Codeswitching.
Creator: Kidd, Alexis M.
Abstract/Description: While many studies have evaluated codeswitching from a sociolinguistic perspective, and other studies have looked at language switching from a neurological perspective, this thesis proposes that the codeswitching process should be further researched from a neurolinguistic perspective. Studies have demonstrated that many factors of multilingualism affect brain structures and that bilingualism has even been demonstrated to improve cognitive reserve in individuals.

Show moreWhile many studies have evaluated codeswitching from a sociolinguistic perspective, and other studies have looked at language switching from a neurological perspective, this thesis proposes that the codeswitching process should be further researched from a neurolinguistic perspective. Studies have demonstrated that many factors of multilingualism affect brain structures and that bilingualism has even been demonstrated to improve cognitive reserve in individuals. By discussing these studies and these neurological findings, the question about codeswitching being able to affect brain structures and even further improve cognitive reserve in bilinguals is raised.

Title: Melodies of Mirages: Exoticism, Folklore, and "Preforming" Santeria.
Creator: Larralde, Elias G.
Abstract/Description: Cultural appropriation, a highly debated topic, has deep roots in the Latin American and Caribbean context. Rather than a one-way process, appropriation affects both those taking cultural elements for their own ends, and the groups whose practices and cultures are appropriated. My thesis analyzes how Afro-Cuban religions, more commonly known as “Santeria”, were appropriated by American popular entertainment and revolutionary government programs starting in 1950s 1960s.

Show moreCultural appropriation, a highly debated topic, has deep roots in the Latin American and Caribbean context. Rather than a one-way process, appropriation affects both those taking cultural elements for their own ends, and the groups whose practices and cultures are appropriated. My thesis analyzes how Afro-Cuban religions, more commonly known as “Santeria”, were appropriated by American popular entertainment and revolutionary government programs starting in 1950s 1960s. Additionally, I interrogate how these appropriations affected how Santeria practitioners and Afro-Cuban performers constructed their identities through music and performance. Using musical recordings from Lucumi religious ceremonies and popular songs that reference the different orishas (deities) of the Lucumi that were preformed both by US and Cuban artists, I compare how different groups of people represented the orishas and the Santeria to suit their own internal agendas. Program notes and performance videos of the Conjunto Folklórico Nacional, a group established in the Revolutionary Cuba to promote Cuban culture, are also examined to determine how the state functioned as a presenter of Afro-Cuban culture while simultaneously erasing active Santeria practitioners. As well, I analyze how Afro-Cuban performers like Celia Cruz utilize Afro-Cuban religions in their songs to reflect a sense of Afro-Cuban pride. This project utilizes theories by scholars Josh Kun, Thomas Turino, Katherine Hagerdon and Peter Sigal to examine the sources which include belief structures of the Lucumi religion and its music. The thesis seeks to understand how outside processes affect the construction of identity as manifested through artistic and religious expressions. I argue that songs and their performance have an intrinsic ability to either reiterate or defy one’s social and cultural place in society.
