The Causal Role Of Theta Oscillations In The Frontoparietal Network On Cognitive Flexibility, Yosun Yoon Jan 2023

The Causal Role Of Theta Oscillations In The Frontoparietal Network On Cognitive Flexibility, Yosun Yoon

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

Cognitive flexibility is crucial for efficient goal-directed behavior, especially in rapidly changing environments. While recent studies have consistently shown enhanced theta power and synchronization in the frontoparietal network during flexible task-switching, direct evidence establishing a causal link between theta-rhythm brain oscillation and cognitive flexibility remains limited. In this study, we applied transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) to the frontoparietal network at a theta frequency (6 Hz) with a phase difference of either 0° (inphase) or 180° (antiphase) to explore its impact on task-switching performance. The results showed no significant tACS modulation effects on switch costs or neural oscillatory synchronization in …

The Impact Of Lived Experience Representative Bureaucracy On The Perceived Humanness And Deservingness Of Clients: Analyzing First Responders’ Attitudes Toward People With Opioid Use Disorder, Ryan J. Lofaro

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

Representative bureaucracy theory has mainly been used to understand how identities related to race, ethnicity, and gender influence how bureaucrats administer public services. Although representation through lived experience has expanded the scope of the theory, this theoretical thread has mostly focused on the perspectives of management. In addition, the literature has generally analyzed the values, beliefs, and actions of minoritized bureaucrats rather than those of the racial and ethnic majority. The purpose of this dissertation is to employ lived experience and traditional representative bureaucracy theories to understand the influence of first responders’ experiences with addiction on their viewpoints regarding the …

The Influence Of Ideology On Corporate Sociopolitical Activism: A Stakeholder Perspective, John R. Rowley Jan 2023

The Influence Of Ideology On Corporate Sociopolitical Activism: A Stakeholder Perspective, John R. Rowley

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

Despite the historical norm that businesses should refrain from making public political statements for fear of losing customers, recent history has shown an increase in firms wading into controversial sociopolitical topics. As politics become increasingly pervasive in everyday life, consumers, investors, employees, and the general public expect firms to engage in political topics and make their positions clear. However, the considerations and processes firms undertake in deciding whether to take political stands are largely unstudied. This study examines the role of firm executives’ ideologies on their propensity to engage in corporate sociopolitical activism (CSA). Further, I examine how the ideologies …

The Interplay Between Ceo And Cfo Gender Diversity, Audit Committee Gender Diversity, And Managerial Overconfidence For Audit Quality, Tonya Blocker

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

Prior studies examine either CEO, CFO, or audit committee member gender as a determinant of audit quality. In contrast, this study makes the unique contribution of examining the interactive effects between a gender diverse CEO-CFO dyad and a gender diverse audit committee on audit quality. Further, prior studies examine the attribute of gender as a determinant of audit quality in isolation. I examine the effect of gender on audit quality in tandem with the potentially moderating effect of managerial overconfidence. In doing so, this study makes the unique contribution of examining whether the socialized construct of gender, or the cognitive …

Childhood Stability And Adult Relationship Functioning, Vanessa Szabolcsi

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

Previous research has demonstrated the harmful impacts of adverse childhood circumstances on adult romantic relationships. The current study examines the negative influence of childhood unpredictability on adult relationships and how this effect may be buffered and enhanced, respectively, by cognitive ability and Machiavellianism. A total of 256 participants completed measures of childhood unpredictability, Machiavellianism, cognitive ability, and relationship satisfaction. Individuals who experienced childhood unpredictability reported lower adult romantic relationship satisfaction. Machiavellianism was found to significantly enhance the negative effects of childhood unpredictability on adult relationships for men only. Cognitive ability was not a significant moderator.

Collision Free Navigation In 3d Unstructured Environments Using Visual Looming, Juan David Arango Yepes

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 2020 - Present

Vision is a critical sense for many species, with the perception of motion being a fundamental aspect. This aspect often provides richer information than static images for understanding the environment. Motion recognition is a relatively simple computation compared to shape recognition. Many creatures can discriminate moving objects quite well while having virtually no capacity for recognizing stationary objects. Traditional methods for collision-free navigation require the reconstruction of a 3D model of the environment before planning an action. These methods face numerous limitations as they are computationally expensive and struggle to scale in unstructured and dynamic environments with a multitude of …
