Latent Structure Of Scores From The Emotional And Behavioral Screener, Matthew C. Lambert, Stacy-Ann A. January, Corey D Pierce Nov 2016

Latent Structure Of Scores From The Emotional And Behavioral Screener, Matthew C. Lambert, Stacy-Ann A. January, Corey D Pierce

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

The Emotional and Behavioral Screener (EBS) is a recently developed teacher-reported brief screening instrument for identifying students who are at-risk of an emotional or behavioral disorder (EBD). Although prior research supports the technical adequacy of scores from the EBS, there is a gap in the literature regarding strong evidence of the factor structure underlying EBS scores. This study investigated the latent structure of scores from the EBS in a sample of 646 elementary students who were rated by their teachers in a 2-week screening period. Single-factor confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and bifactor models were used to test the hypothesis that …

Housing In Nonmetropolitan Nebraska: Perceptions Of Supply And Condition: 2016 Nebraska Rural Poll Results, Rebecca J. Vogt, Cheryl A. Burkhart-Kriesel, Randolph L. Cantrell, Bradley Lubben, L. J. Mcelravy Nov 2016

Housing In Nonmetropolitan Nebraska: Perceptions Of Supply And Condition: 2016 Nebraska Rural Poll Results, Rebecca J. Vogt, Cheryl A. Burkhart-Kriesel, Randolph L. Cantrell, Bradley Lubben, L. J. Mcelravy

Rural Futures Institute: Publications

Conclusion

Most rural Nebraskans own their home. And, when asked about housing programs or priorities they would support in their community, most rural Nebraskans support programs that help seniors age in their homes, programs that would help upgrade the condition of existing homes and providing affordable rental housing. They are less likely to support organizing volunteer efforts to maintain existing housing stock, but still one-half support this option as well.

Support for one of the programs differs by community size. Persons living in or near larger communities are more likely than persons living in or near smaller communities to support …


Tolerability Of Intermittent Hemodialysis In A Cohort Of Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Device, Christopher Areephanthu, Amr Elhusseini, Bennet George, Jessica Mcabee, B. Peter Sawaya Nov 2016

Tolerability Of Intermittent Hemodialysis In A Cohort Of Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Device, Christopher Areephanthu, Amr Elhusseini, Bennet George, Jessica Mcabee, B. Peter Sawaya

The VAD Journal

Background: The use of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has emerged as a popular treatment for patients with advanced heart failure. It is not uncommon for these patients to suffer from renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy. The purpose of this study is to assess hemodynamic parameters and ability to complete the prescribed hemodialysis session in a series of patients who underwent numerous dialysis treatments.

Methods: Nine patients with Heart Mate II LVAD received 170 intermittent inpatient hemodialysis treatments between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2012. Assessment included vital signs, ultrafiltrate removed, hemodialysis duration, symptoms, early terminations (ET), and …


Fulminant Necrotizing Eosinophilic Myocarditis: A Case Report And Comprehensive Literature Review, Bennet George, Matthew Hager, Virgilius Cornea, William O'Connor, Maya Guglin Nov 2016

Fulminant Necrotizing Eosinophilic Myocarditis: A Case Report And Comprehensive Literature Review, Bennet George, Matthew Hager, Virgilius Cornea, William O'Connor, Maya Guglin

The VAD Journal

Acute eosinophilic myocarditis is a relatively rare disorder with serious morbidity and mortality. Due to its infrequency, standardized management guidelines are wanting. We present a case of acute, necrotizing eosinophilic myocarditis requiring several levels of critical care. We reviewed similar cases reported in the literature to highlight common clinical features, describe natural disease course and associated complications, and review varying approaches to medical therapy.

Pyrolysis Of Wastewater Biosolids Significantly Reduces Estrogenicity, T. C. Hoffman, Daniel Zitomer, Patrick J. Mcnamara Nov 2016

Pyrolysis Of Wastewater Biosolids Significantly Reduces Estrogenicity, T. C. Hoffman, Daniel Zitomer, Patrick J. Mcnamara

Civil and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research and Publications

Most wastewater treatment processes are not specifically designed to remove micropollutants. Many micropollutants are hydrophobic so they remain in the biosolids and are discharged to the environment through land-application of biosolids. Micropollutants encompass a broad range of organic chemicals, including estrogenic compounds (natural and synthetic) that reside in the environment, a.k.a. environmental estrogens. Public concern over land application of biosolids stemming from the occurrence of micropollutants hampers the value of biosolids which are important to wastewater treatment plants as a valuable by-product. This research evaluated pyrolysis, the partial decomposition of organic material in an oxygen-deprived system under high temperatures, as …


P-26 Detection Of Counterfeit Antimalarial Drugs By Sers, Getahun Merga, P. Shepard, M. Trujillo, J. Camden Nov 2016

P-26 Detection Of Counterfeit Antimalarial Drugs By Sers, Getahun Merga, P. Shepard, M. Trujillo, J. Camden

Celebration of Research and Creative Scholarship

Substandard antimalarial drugs are a major problem to the health of citizens in developing countries, and it is likely that the problem persists due to the lack of means to detect substandard drugs. Various colorimetric techniques have been implemented to determine if a drug contains the stated active ingredient or not, but vibrational spectroscopies such as NIR and Raman can be used to more reliably quantify the amount of active ingredient. The use of Raman, however, has been limited by the presence of significant sample fluorescence that interferes with detection of the SERS signals of the active ingredients. Thus, we …

Threshold-Free Selection Of Taxonomic Multilabels, Hsin-Yi Lin, Brian Milch, Michel Adar, Scot Fang, Rene Van De Veerdonk Nov 2016

Threshold-Free Selection Of Taxonomic Multilabels, Hsin-Yi Lin, Brian Milch, Michel Adar, Scot Fang, Rene Van De Veerdonk

Defensive Publications Series

In online search or content selection systems, significant computational resources are expended to classify or categorize electronic documents into topics, concepts, or entities. A classifier can process, parse or otherwise analyze the document to assign one or more labels to the document based on the taxonomy. The classifier can generate a score for each of the labels, and provide the labels and the scores to other components or modules for further downstream processing. To keep downstream processes efficient without causing excessive processing of labels, the classifier may filter out the labels to return a subset of labels based on comparing …


“Pusser Grub? My God But It Was Awful!” Feeding The Fleet During The Second World War, Sandy Gow Nov 2016

“Pusser Grub? My God But It Was Awful!” Feeding The Fleet During The Second World War, Sandy Gow

Canadian Military History

When Canada declared war on Germany in September 1939 the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN), Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve (RCNVR), and Royal Canadian Naval Reserve (RCNR) consisted of perhaps 3,000 officers and men. The RCN was manning six destroyers and seven smaller craft out of Halifax and Esquimalt. While the men of the RCNR had seagoing experience through the merchant navy and the fishing fleets, only a limited number of men from the RCNVR had managed to spend any time in RCN vessels. No reservist from either category that had any significant prewar training or experience in food supply or …


In The Midst Of It All: A Qualitative Study Of The Everyday Life Of Haitians During An Ongoing Cholera Epidemic, Kapriskie Seide Nov 2016

In The Midst Of It All: A Qualitative Study Of The Everyday Life Of Haitians During An Ongoing Cholera Epidemic, Kapriskie Seide

Open Access Theses

Studies focusing the cholera epidemic in Haiti seldom examine the social dimension of this waterborne disease epidemic from the perspective of the population. Further, the social contexts within which people’s behaviors, practices, and meanings are formed is undervalued. As the number of cholera cases continue to vacillate over the years, understanding Haitians’ behaviors in this conjuncture is a sine sine qua non since the control and eradication of any waterborne disease epidemic requires a biosocial approach. This study addresses this gap. From a symbolic interactionist perspective, using a constructivist grounded theory methodology, this study examined the extent to which the …
