Collaborative Digital Problem-Solving: Power, Relationships, And Participation, Gloria E. Jacobs, Jill Castek

Applied Linguistics Faculty Publications and Presentations

Fascination With Murder: Exploring The Internal Structure Of The True Crime Community, Eric Gaither

Theses and Dissertations

The admiration of killers is a trait found in numerous murderers, who claimed they felt inspired to murder from previous attacks.

Community members include those who display admiration for killers and those who commit copycat crimes. Unfortunately, information regarding this community is limited and often conflicting as academic studies are scarce. This thesis explores the True Crime Community culture with a content analysis of authority figures' posts from a True Crime Community forum to understand the norms of discussions and behaviors.

Posterior Tympanotomy Versus Posterior Atticotomy In Creating Well-Ventilated Middle Ear Cleft Pros And Cons, Essam F. Abdelfattah, Wael A. Alzami

Journal of Medicine in Scientific Research

Background Cortical mastoidectomy is considered a cornerstone step in the surgical management of noncholesteatomatous chronic suppurative otitis media. It comprises the canal wall-up technique, preserving the posterior and superior bony canal walls. The goal of cortical mastoidectomy is mainly to ventilate the middle ear cleft besides eradication of diseased mastoid air cells. The ventilation of the middle ear cleft has no way except through the aditus ad antrum and patent epitympanic diaphragm besides well-functioning Eustachian tube. This way of ventilation is usually affected in chronic infected ears by edematous and polypoid mucosa, leading to its obstruction. Traditional practice used to …

The Qualitative Report

El acoso escolar es un tipo de relación caracterizada por la agresión sistemática ejercida por uno o más escolares sobre una o más personas con el objetivo de causar daño y en la que se evidencia una asimetría de poder entre agresores y agredidos.

A Multilayer Network Model Of The Coevolution Of The Spread Of A Disease And Competing Opinions, Kaiyan Peng, Zheng Lu, Vanessa Lin, Michael R. Lindstrom, Christian Parkinson, Chuntian Wang, Andrea L. Bertozzi, Mason A. Porter

School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications

During the COVID-19 pandemic, conflicting opinions on physical distancing swept across social media, affecting both human behavior and the spread of COVID-19. Inspired by such phenomena, we construct a two-layer multiplex network for the coupled spread of a disease and conflicting opinions. We model each process as a contagion. On one layer, we consider the concurrent evolution of two opinions — pro-physical-distancing and anti-physical-distancing — that compete with each other and have mutual immunity to each other. The disease evolves on the other layer, and individuals are less likely (respectively, more likely) to become infected when they adopt the pro-physical-distancing …

Arah Kebijakan Militer Arab Saudi Di Bawah Komando Mohammed Bin Salman (Mbs) Menghadapi Visi Saudi 2030, Muhammad Ali, Muhammad Syaroni Rofii Mr.

Journal Of Middle East and Islamic Studies

The Saudi Arabia's Grand Vision 2030 which has been launched since 2016, but Saudi Arabia's involvement in the political arena in the Middle East has drained the finances of this rich country. Saudi Arabia actually wants to get out of the mud of conflict in the region and find a way to save face under de facto of the Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) leadership. The larger goal of Saudi Vision 2030 is more important than maintaining its regional hegemony under the shadow of the United States. MBS's policy of involving Saudi Arabia, which is supported by the United States …

The Polarization Of The Hamas Movement In Palestine And Its Influence On Indonesian Defense Issues: A Geopolitical And Military Overview, Ahmad Budiman, Mulawarman Hannase

Journal Of Middle East and Islamic Studies

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has implications for the birth of armed groups that continue to

be polarized within Palestine, such as the PLO, Hamas, Fatah, and others to the PNA.

The resonance also reached Indonesia. This study will examine the polarization of Hamas and

its military activities which are considered to represent the interests of Palestinian Muslims.
