Psychometric Properties Of The Revissed Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale, Mustafa Baloglu, Paul F. Zelhart
Psychometric Properties Of The Revissed Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale, Mustafa Baloglu, Paul F. Zelhart
The Psychological Record
An exploratory factor analysis and several confirmatory analyses were performed to evaluate the factorial structure of the Revised Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale (RMARS) through the responses of 805 college students. On 559 students’ scores, the instrument’s construct validity was tested through a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and was found to be inadequate. An exploratory factor analysis suggested a modification by dropping five items. After the modification, a second CFA showed that the modified model fit the theoretical model well. Cross-validation of the modified model was tested on a different sample of 246 students and was found to be satisfactory. In …
On The Atrophy Of Moral Reasoning In The Global Financial Crisis, Kim Hawtrey, Rutherford Johnson
On The Atrophy Of Moral Reasoning In The Global Financial Crisis, Kim Hawtrey, Rutherford Johnson
Journal of Religion and Business Ethics
The Global Financial Crisis - and its human toll - can be attributed to an atypical pandemic of morally sourced market failure. This paper develops a ‘moral bubble’ understanding of the sub-prime crisis, in which ethical decision-making by economic actors is marked by expediency and crowd effects. The paper revisits Adam Smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiments and shows Smith’s theory offers a helpful corrective to the ethical atrophy behind the recent credit crisis. The need to safeguard the 'soft' (moral) infrastructure of markets has significant implications for business decision-makers, for public policy, and for the role of Christian belief in …
Gauge Theory Duals Of Black Hole - Black String Transitions Of Gravitational Theories On A Circle, Simon Catterall, Anosh Joseph, Toby Wiseman
Gauge Theory Duals Of Black Hole - Black String Transitions Of Gravitational Theories On A Circle, Simon Catterall, Anosh Joseph, Toby Wiseman
Physics - All Scholarship
We study the black hole - black string phase transitions of gravitational theories compactified on a circle using the holographic duality conjecture. The gauge theory duals of these theories are maximally supersymmetric and strongly coupled 1 + 1 dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theories compactified on a circle, in the large N limit. We perform the strongly coupled finite temperature gauge theory calculations on a lattice, using the recently developed exact lattice supersymmetry methods based on topological twisting and orbifolding. The spatial Polyakov line serves as relevant order parameter of the confinement - deconfinement phase transitions in the gauge theory duals.

Prompt K0s Production In Pp Collisions At √S=0.9 Tev, Raymond Mountain, Marina Artuso, S. Blusk, Alessandra Borgia
Physics - All Scholarship
The production of K_short mesons in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 0.9 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The luminosity of the analysed sample is determined using a novel technique, involving measurements of the beam currents, sizes and positions, and is found to be 6.8 +/- 1.0 microbarn^-1. The differential prompt K_short production cross-section is measured as a function of the K_short transverse momentum and rapidity in the region 0 < pT < 1.6 GeV/c and 2.5 < y < 4.0. The data are found to be in reasonable agreement with previous measurements and generator expectations.

Professional Implications Of Using Online Social Networking Systems By Persons Who Are Blind, Steven A. Kurutz
Professional Implications Of Using Online Social Networking Systems By Persons Who Are Blind, Steven A. Kurutz
Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)
The online social networking (OSN) phenomenon has grown dramatically over the past decade, with websites such as Facebook and Twitter becoming household names. Although a lot of literature exists on online social networking systems, little exists on these systems' practical impact on the offline world, beyond cyberspace. Similarly, little attention has been given to the use of these systems by persons who are blind or have other disabilities. This research attempts to redress this situation by exploring the relationship between the usage of OSN systems and professional achievement for persons who are blind.

Thermal Phases Of D1-Branes On A Circle From Lattice Super Yang-Mills, Simon Catterall, Anosh Joseph, Toby Wiseman
Thermal Phases Of D1-Branes On A Circle From Lattice Super Yang-Mills, Simon Catterall, Anosh Joseph, Toby Wiseman
Physics - All Scholarship
We report on the results of numerical simulations of 1+1 dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theory with maximal supersymmetry at finite temperature and compactified on a circle. For large N this system is thought to provide a dual description of the decoupling limit of N coincident D1-branes on a circle. It has been proposed that at large N there is a phase transition at strong coupling related to the Gregory-Laflamme (GL) phase transition in the holographic gravity dual. In a high temperature limit there was argued to be a deconfinement transition associated to the spatial Polyakov loop, and it has been proposed …

Radical Spin Helix In Two-Dimensional Electron Systems With Rashba Spin-Orbit Coupling, Yuriy V. Pershin Dr, Valeriy A. Slipko
Radical Spin Helix In Two-Dimensional Electron Systems With Rashba Spin-Orbit Coupling, Yuriy V. Pershin Dr, Valeriy A. Slipko
Faculty Publications
We suggest a long-lived spin-polarization structure, a radial spin helix, and study its relaxation dynamics. For this purpose, starting with a system of equations for spin-polarization density, we find its general solution in the axially symmetric case. It is demonstrated that the radial spin helix of a certain period relaxes slower than homogeneous spin polarization and plain spin helix. Importantly, the spin polarization at the center of the radial spin helix stays almost unchanged at short times. At longer times, when the initial nonexponential relaxation region ends, the relaxation of the radial spin helix occurs with the same time constant …
Learning Styles: Learning That Empowers Students?, Tofi Rahal
Learning Styles: Learning That Empowers Students?, Tofi Rahal
All Works
Despite much disagreement, educators and psychologists agree that different students learn differently. Learning differences come under many labels, such as 'learning styles', 'thinking styles', 'personality types' or 'multiple intelligences'. This paper supports the use of learning style models as a theoretical framework for quality educational development in the Arab Gulf Countries. It will (a) briefly explore various learning styles models, with primary focus on the Dunn & Dunn model and its assessment instruments; (b) review key research conducted internationally, as well as locally at Zayed University; (c) examine the benefits of using multimodal and multisensory instructional packages in various disciplines; …

We present observations of six transits and six eclipses of the transiting planet system HD 189733 taken with the Spitzer Space Telescope's Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) at 8 μm, as well as a re-analysis of previously published data. We use several novel techniques in our data analysis, the most important of which is a new correction for the detector "ramp" variation with a double-exponential function, which performs better and is a better physical model for this detector variation. Our main scientific findings are (1) an upper limit on the variability of the dayside planet flux of 2.7% (68% confidence); (2) …

Morphological Analysis Based On A Fractional Dynamic Model For Hyphal Growth, Jonathan Blackledge, Dan Barry
Morphological Analysis Based On A Fractional Dynamic Model For Hyphal Growth, Jonathan Blackledge, Dan Barry
Conference papers
The development of methods capable of accurately characterising the morphology of filamentous microbes represents a significant challenge to biotechnologists. This is because the productivity of many industrial fermentation processes is heavily dependent on the morphological form adopted by an organism. It is therefore of significant value if a quantitative model and associated metric(s) for morphological forms determined by complex phenotypes can be determined non-invasively, e.g. through image analysis. Specific interest is in the quantification of the branching behaviour of an organism. This is due to the link between branching frequency, biomass and metabolite production. In this paper we present a …

No Inhiibitions, No Moral Sense, And No Social Structure : The Etiology Of The Psychopath And The Sociopath : A Project Based Upon Independent Investigation, Chad Melvin O'Brien
Theses, Dissertations, and Projects
Psychopathy and sociopathy are two personality disorders that are similar in action though different in origin. Whereas the psychopathic individual is a product of nature in that the origin of the social disorder originates in the mind, the sociopathic individual is a product of upbringing as sociopathy is more so a result of a learned/defensive behavior. Although the number is uncertain, there could be as many as ten million psychopathic and sociopathic people living in the United States today. This paper focuses on the etiology of both psychopathy and sociopathy. It also looks at how psychopathy and sociopathy are recognized …
The Relationship Between Pretend Play And Cognitive, Linguistic, And Social Skills Development In Early Childhood : A Project Based Upon Secondary Analysis Of Developmental Screening Data From An Elementary School In Plainfield, Connecticut, Lauren Ann Sebastianelli
Theses, Dissertations, and Projects
There is substantial research to support the positive correlation between pretend play and cognitive, language and social skills development in early childhood. Most of this research has explored bivariate relationships. We know little about how these variables might co-vary in the same sample. This exploratory study was based on secondary analysis of developmental screening data for a preschool program in Connecticut. The sample was comprised of 79 three and four year-olds. Proxies for pretend play and cognitive, language and social skills development were operationalized from a standardized instrument, Developmental Indicators for the Assessment of Learning (DIAL) and a Social Skills …

Developing A Conceptual Model Of Virtual Organizations For Citizen Science, Andrea Wiggins, Kevin Crowston
Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis Faculty Publications
This paper develops an organisation design-oriented conceptual model of scientific knowledge production through citizen science virtual organisations. Citizen science is a form of organisation design for collaborative scientific research involving scientists and volunteers, for which internet-based modes of participation enable massive virtual collaboration by thousands of members of the public. The conceptual model provides an example of a theory development process and discusses its application to an exploratory study. The paper contributes a multi-level process model for organising investigation into the impact of design on this form of scientific knowledge production.
