Prosody And Attachment In Possessive Structures, Elizabeth Keeton, Katy Carlson Apr 2021

Prosody And Attachment In Possessive Structures, Elizabeth Keeton, Katy Carlson

2021 Celebration of Student Scholarship - Oral Presentations

In this project, we are studying the effect that prosodic boundaries and accent location have on attachment in an ambiguous phrase like “the daughter of the pharaoh’s advisor.” Under high possessive attachment, the phrase could mean, “There’s a daughter of the pharaoh, and we’re talking about her advisor.” If there is low possessive attachment instead, the phrase could be understood as, “There’s a pharaoh’s advisor, and we’re talking about his/her daughter.” In an auditory questionnaire, participants will listen to 24 dialogues, with the phrases preceded by the question “Who was it?” We placed contrastive accents on the first noun (“the …

Factors Associated The Underrepresentation Of Female Head Coaches In Intercollegiate Athletics, Chloe Whitlock, Steve Chen

2021 Celebration of Student Scholarship - Oral Presentations

Past studies had shown the underrepresentation of females in the coaching profession. The purpose of this study was to examine the contributory factors to the underrepresentation of female head coaches in intercollegiate athletics. To further examine this issue, two studies were conducted to examine the perceptions of 124 current NCAA Division-I athletic coaches and 163 high school educators. Based on collegiate coaches’ responses, the factor analysis identified four important constructs that contribute to the success of female coaches’ job obtainment. According to the results of the second study, the high school educators (n = 163) believed there were gender biases …


Decade Long Monitoring Of Active Galactic Nuclei With Swift, Tithi Patel, Dirk Grupe Apr 2021

Decade Long Monitoring Of Active Galactic Nuclei With Swift, Tithi Patel, Dirk Grupe

2021 Celebration of Student Scholarship - Oral Presentations

I will report decade-long monitoring campaigns with the NASA Neil-Gehrels Swift mission of about 100 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Swift has started with monitoring some AGN since 2005. This long-term monitoring project has enabled us to catch AGN in extreme high and low X-ray flux states allowing to trigger follow-up observations by XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, HST. While this program has led in the past to at least one trigger per year, no AGN was found with extreme variability. I will also give a brief overview of the causes of this extreme variability.
