Educational Investment, Family Context, And Children’S Math And Reading Growth From Kindergarten Through The Third Grade, Jacob Cheadle Jan 2008

Educational Investment, Family Context, And Children’S Math And Reading Growth From Kindergarten Through The Third Grade, Jacob Cheadle

Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications

Drawing on longitudinal data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 1998–1999, this study used IRT modeling to operationalize a measure of parental educational investments based on Lareau’s notion of concerted cultivation. It used multilevel piecewise growth models regressing children’s math and reading achievement from entry into kindergarten through the third grade on concerted cultivation and family context variables. The results indicate that educational investments are an important mediator of socioeconomic and racial/ethnic disparities, completely explaining the black-white reading gap at kindergarten entry and consistently explaining 20 percent to 60 percent and 30 percent to 50 percent of …


Local Archives And Teaching The History Of Sociology: Experiences At The University Of Nebraska-Lincoln, Michael R. Hill Jan 2008

Local Archives And Teaching The History Of Sociology: Experiences At The University Of Nebraska-Lincoln, Michael R. Hill

Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications

Opportunities to teach and conduct research on the local disciplinary history of sociology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln are limited only by one’s imagination and the pragmatic realities of classroom constraints. Over the years, I have been privileged to introduce Nebraska students to many particulars of the local sociological record via guest lectures in courses and colloquia, standalone PowerPoint slide shows, archival displays, informational brochures, various publications, and by distributing extensive compilations of pertinent documents on compact discs. Most recently, I included a one-and-a-half-week segment on the history of Nebraska sociology in an Introduction to Sociology course (Hill 2007c), employing …


Does “Yes Or No” On The Telephone Mean The Same As “Check-All-That-Apply” On The Web?, Jolene D. Smyth, Leah Melani Christian, Don A. Dillman Jan 2008

Does “Yes Or No” On The Telephone Mean The Same As “Check-All-That-Apply” On The Web?, Jolene D. Smyth, Leah Melani Christian, Don A. Dillman

Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications

Recent experimental research has shown that respondents to forced-choice questions endorse significantly more options than respondents to check-all questions. This research has challenged the common assumption that these two question formats can be used interchangeably but has been limited to comparisons within a single survey mode. In this paper we use data from a 2004 random sample survey of university students to compare the forced-choice and check-all question formats across web self-administered and telephone interviewer-administered surveys as they are commonly used in survey practice. We find that the within-mode question format effects revealed by previous research and reaffirmed in the …


A Comparison Of Risk Factors For Sexual Victimization Among Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, And Heterosexual Homeless Young Adults, Kimberly A. Tyler Jan 2008

A Comparison Of Risk Factors For Sexual Victimization Among Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, And Heterosexual Homeless Young Adults, Kimberly A. Tyler

Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications

Although high rates of sexual victimization have been reported among homeless youth, less is known about whether the risk factors vary for gay, lesbian, and bisexual youth compared to heterosexual youth. Based on a sample of 172 homeless young adults ages 19 to 26, results revealed that depressive symptoms, prostitution, and having friends who traded sex were significantly associated with higher levels of sexual victimization. Gay, lesbian, and bisexual young adults experienced more sexual victimization compared to heterosexual young adults. A test for interactions revealed that the effect of sexual orientation on sexual victimization was moderated by trading sex and …


Trans-10, Cis-12 Conjugated Linoleic Acid Antagonizes Ligand- Dependent Pparγ Activity In Primary Cultures Of Human Adipocytes, Arion Kennedy, Soonkyu Chung, Kathleen Lapoint, Oluwatoyin Fabiyi, Michael K. Mcintosh Jan 2008

Trans-10, Cis-12 Conjugated Linoleic Acid Antagonizes Ligand- Dependent Pparγ Activity In Primary Cultures Of Human Adipocytes, Arion Kennedy, Soonkyu Chung, Kathleen Lapoint, Oluwatoyin Fabiyi, Michael K. Mcintosh

Department of Nutrition and Health Sciences: Faculty Publications

We previously demonstrated that trans-10, cis-12 (10,12) conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) causes human adipocyte delipidation, insulin resistance, and inflammation in part by attenuating PPARγ target gene expression. We hypothesized that CLA antagonizes the activity of PPARγ in an isomerspecific manner. 10,12 CLA, but not cis-9, trans-11 (9,11) CLA, suppressed ligand-stimulated activation of a peroxisome proliferator response element-luciferase reporter. This decreased activation of PPARγ by 10,12 CLA was accompanied by an increase in PPARγ and extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK)1/2 phosphorylation, followed by decreased PPARγ protein levels. To investigate if 10,12 CLA-mediated delipidation was preventable with a PPARγ …

Inhibition Of Stearoyl-Coa Desaturase 1 (Scd1) Dissociates Insulin Resistance And Obesity From Atherosclerosis, J. Mark Brown, Soonkyu Chung, Janet K. Sawyer, Chiara Degirolamo, Heather M. Alger, Tam Nguyen, Xuewei Zhu, My-Ngan Duong, Amanda L. Wibley, Ramesh Shah, Matthew A. Davis, Kathryn Kelley, Martha D. Wilson, Carol Kent, John S. Parks, Lawrence L. Rudel

Department of Nutrition and Health Sciences: Faculty Publications

Background—Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase 1 (SCD1) is a well-known enhancer of the metabolic syndrome. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of SCD1 in lipoprotein metabolism and atherosclerosis progression.

Methods and Results—Antisense oligonucleotides were used to inhibit SCD1 in a mouse model of hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis (LDLr-/-Apob100/100). In agreement with previous reports, inhibition of SCD1 protected against diet-induced obesity, insulin resistance, and hepatic steatosis. However, unexpectedly SCD1 inhibition strongly promoted aortic atherosclerosis, which could not be reversed by dietary oleate. Further analyses revealed that SCD1 inhibition promoted accumulation of saturated fatty acids …


Total Body Water Estimations In Healthy Men And Women Using Bioimpedance Spectroscopy: A Deuterium Oxide Comparison, Jordan R. Moon, Sarah E. Tobkin, Michael D. Roberts, Vincent J. Dalbo, Chad M. Kerksick, Michael G. Bemben, Joel T. Cramer, Jeffrey R. Stout Jan 2008

Department of Nutrition and Health Sciences: Faculty Publications

Background: Total body water (TBW) estimations have been used to estimate body composition, particularly fat-free mass, to aid in nutritional interventions, and to monitor hydration status. In the past, bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) devices have been used to estimate TBW. Previous investigations have examined the validity of the XiTRON 4000B (XiTRON Technologies) BIS device for estimating TBW. Recently, a new BIS device (Imp™ SFB7) has become available, claiming greater precision when estimating TBW. The Imp™ SFB7 (SFB7) is based on similar BIS principles, while offering increased portability and a greater range of frequencies when compared to older devices, such as the …

The Interaction Between Kshv Rta And Cellular Rbp-Jκ And Their Subsequent Dna Binding Are Not Sufficient For Activation Of Rbp-Jκ, Anil Papugani, Tricia Coleman, Clinton J. Jones, Luwen Zhang Jan 2008

The Interaction Between Kshv Rta And Cellular Rbp-Jκ And Their Subsequent Dna Binding Are Not Sufficient For Activation Of Rbp-Jκ, Anil Papugani, Tricia Coleman, Clinton J. Jones, Luwen Zhang

School of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences: Faculty Publications

Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) replication and transcription activator (RTA) is necessary and sufficient for the switch from KSHV latency to lytic replication. RTA activates promoters by several mechanisms. RTA can bind to sequences in viral promoters and activate transcription. In addition, RTA interacts with the cellular recombination signal sequence-binding protein-J kappa (RBP- Jκ), a transcriptional repressor, converts the repressor into an activator and activates viral promoters via RBP- Jκ. Because RBP- Jκ is required for RTA to activate lytic replication, it is important to understand how RTA cooperates with RBP- Jκ protein to activate KSHV lytic replication program. Previously, we …


Premature Expression Of The Latency-Related Rna Encoded By Bovine Herpesvirus Type 1 Correlates With Higher Levels Of Beta Interferon Rna Expression In Productively Infected Cells, Sandra Perez, Florencia Meyer, Kazima Saira, Alan R. Doster, Clinton J. Jones Jan 2008

Premature Expression Of The Latency-Related Rna Encoded By Bovine Herpesvirus Type 1 Correlates With Higher Levels Of Beta Interferon Rna Expression In Productively Infected Cells, Sandra Perez, Florencia Meyer, Kazima Saira, Alan R. Doster, Clinton J. Jones

School of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences: Faculty Publications

Bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1) is an important pathogen that can initiate bovine respiratory disease complex. Like other members of the subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae, BHV-1 establishes latency in sensory neurons. The latency-related (LR) gene expresses a family of alternatively spliced transcripts in infected sensory neurons that have the potential to encode several LR proteins. An LR mutant virus that contains three stop codons near the 5’ terminus of the first open reading frame in the LR gene does not express two LR proteins or reactivate from latency. In addition, the LR mutant virus induces higher levels of apoptosis in trigeminal …

Scrutiny Land, Randy E. Barnett Jan 2008

Scrutiny Land, Randy E. Barnett

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Scrutiny Land is the place where government needs to justify to a court its restrictions on the liberties of the people. In the 1930s, the Supreme Court began limiting access to Scrutiny Land. While the New Deal Court merely shifted the burden to those challenging a law to show that a restriction of liberty is irrational, the Warren Court made the presumption of constitutionality effectively irrebuttable. After this, only one road to Scrutiny Land remained: showing that the liberty being restricted was a fundamental right. The Glucksberg Two-Step, however, limited the doctrine of fundamental rights to those (1) narrowly defined …

"Anything You Say May Be Used Against You": A Proposed Seminar On The Lawyer’S Duty To Warn Of Confidentiality’S Limits In Today's Post-Enron World, Paul F. Rothstein Jan 2008

"Anything You Say May Be Used Against You": A Proposed Seminar On The Lawyer’S Duty To Warn Of Confidentiality’S Limits In Today's Post-Enron World, Paul F. Rothstein

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

In light of recent developments, the confidence that one's communications with a lawyer will remain sacrosanct today may be badly misplaced. This raises important questions concerning the duty of lawyers: When, to what extent, and in what detail, does an attorney communicating with someone who may expect confidentiality, have a duty to explain in advance the circumstances under which the information gained may subsequently be revealed pursuant to these or other confidentiality loopholes? Will the interviewee “clam up” in the face of such Miranda-like warnings? If so, what does this do to the premise of Upjohn and the Model Rule …

Neuroimaging And Capital Punishment, O. Carter Snead Jan 2008

Neuroimaging And Capital Punishment, O. Carter Snead

Journal Articles

Can brain scans be used to determine whether a person is inclined toward criminality or violent behavior?

This question, asked by Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware at the hearing considering the nomination of John Roberts to be Chief Justice of the United States, illustrates the extent to which cognitive neuroscience - increasingly augmented by the growing powers of neuroimaging, the use of various technologies to directly or indirectly observe the structure and function of the brain - has captured the imagination of those who make, enforce, interpret, and study the law.

The attraction of the legal community to cognitive neuroscience …
