Domain-Specific And Sex-Dependent Behavioral Alterations In The Btbr Mouse Model Of Autism, Jacob Jackson, Conlan Houston, Miles Cornils, Ethan Plummer, Chunxiu Yu

Michigan Tech Publications

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by social communication deficits and restricted, repetitive behaviors, often accompanied by motor, cognitive, and anxiety-related alterations. Although ASD is diagnosed more frequently in males than females, females remain underrepresented in preclinical studies, limiting understanding of sex-dependent phenotypes. The BTBR T⁺ Itpr3^tf/J (BTBR) mouse strain is a widely used animal model of ASD, yet its sex-specific behavioral profiles across functional domains remain incompletely characterized. Here, we conducted a systematic, multi-domain behavioral assessment in male and female BTBR mice and wild-type (WT) controls, examining action control, motor learning, social behavior, …

A Study On Police Budgets And Impact On Public Safety, Vera Thompson

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Law enforcement agencies face ongoing organizational and resource challenges, yet there is limited research on how changes in police funding relate to crime rates and violent crime. There has been increased public awareness concerning police related encounters with civilians, and this has intensified debates about reducing law enforcement budgets. Current literature indicates that although police funding, staffing, and community trust are closely associated with public safety outcomes, empirical evidence on the relationship between police budget reductions and changes in violent crime and overall crime rates remains limited and insufficient to support definitive policy conclusions. The purpose of this quantitative study …

Nurses' Perceptions On Emotional Exhaustion, Hannah Espera

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

The problem that was addressed through this study is that U.S. nurses experience high levels of emotional exhaustion (EE) in their role as professional caregivers, adult learners, and educators. Grounded in Maslach's burnout theory, the purpose of this qualitative study was to explore U.S. nurses’ perceptions of EE as professional caregivers, adult learners, and educators. For this basic qualitative design, semistructured interviews were conducted with 10 nurses licensed in the United States who were working in direct patient care roles, across multiple specialties, and with various levels of experience and licensure. Through in vivo and pattern coding, the following findings …

Sensory Profile: Understanding Soothers And Stressors, Niki Elliott Ph.D.

Neuroinclusion

Sensory experiences shape how we move through the world: how we learn, focus, connect with others, and sustain energy across the day. For neurodiverse individuals in particular, sensory input is often central to how environments are experienced. Stress, fatigue, withdrawal, or overwhelm often emerge from a mismatch between a person’s sensory needs and the environments they are navigating, rather than from individual deficits or lack of effort. Lighting, noise, movement demands, unpredictability, clutter, and even well-intentioned routines can either support ease and participation or place additional strain on the nervous system. This Sensory Profile is designed to help individuals and …

Sports Injuries You May Overlook, Sarah Gubara, Greg Canty

Pediatrics in Practice: A CME Podcast

Could this recurring pain or sudden limp mean something more than a sprain? Greg Canty, MD, Medical Director, Sports Medicine Center at Children's Mercy, walks through how to recognize concerning pediatric sports injuries that are often missed. This episode covers X‑ray‑negative knee injuries (patella dislocation, ACL tear, meniscus), pelvic avulsion and transitional ankle growth plate fractures, and overuse conditions such as gymnast wrist, spondylolysis, Little League elbow, and shoulder impingement. Dr. Canty outlines practical red flags—swelling, inability to weight‑bear, point tenderness, pain persisting beyond two weeks in single‑sport athletes, and declines in participation—and explains how assessing training load, sleep, nutrition, …

Motivating Second-Order Differential Equation Models Beyond The Spring–Mass System, Katherine E. Rutherford, John C. Borger

CODEE Journal

Students in introductory differential equations courses often learn to associate specific equation types with familiar physical systems. While this approach supports procedural fluency, it can inhibit transfer learning: students recognize familiar forms rather than construct models from first principles. This paper presents a modeling-first instructional approach designed to help students recognize the shared structure of second-order differential equations across diverse contexts. Students derive governing equations from fundamental physical laws for multiple systems, including an Inductor, Resistor, and Capacitor (LRC) electrical circuit, a simple pendulum, and viscous pipe flow. Through guided comparison, students identify common components such as inertia, damping, restoring …

A Multiwavelength Study Of A Long-Duration Very-High-Energy Flare From Bl Lacertae With Veritas, Avery Archer, Et Al.

Physics & Astronomy Faculty publications

We report the first observations of a long-duration very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) flare from BL Lacertae (VER J2202+422), taken with the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS). On 2022 October 15, the Fermi-Large Area Telescope (LAT) detected elevated GeV activity originating from this blazar. This triggered a multiwavelength campaign, which includes observations from VERITAS, Swift, NuSTAR, and select optical and radio observatories. VERITAS observed the source for a total of ∼9.8 hr between 2022 September 1 and 2022 December 1. An analysis of these data yields a ∼28σ detection of the source. While previously observed VHE …

Commissioning And Performance Characterization Of An Elevator Loading System For The Ucnτ+ Magneto-Gravitational Trap, Alexander Komives, Et Al.

Physics & Astronomy Faculty publications

We report the first commissioning with ultracold neutrons (UCN) of an elevator-based loading system for the UCNτ magneto-gravitational neutron trap at Los Alamos Neutron Science Center. The system replaces the previous trap-door geometry with a moving bin designed to transfer UCN from UCN guide height into the open trap while reducing their kinetic energy through an adiabatic expansion of the accessible volume. UCN cutoff energy scans, direct leakage measurements, and variable bin-hold cycle measurements were used to characterize the incident spectrum and the loading losses. Successive sealing modifications increased the effective bin population lifetime from 26.69 ± 0.62 to 47.64 …

Level Of Stroke Center Designation And The Association With Hcahps Nurse Communication Scores And Hcahps Discharge Instruction Scores In North Carolina Hospitals In 2023, Donna Lee Frederick

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Strokes are costly and the leading cause of disability and a leading cause of death in the United States. Stroke management has improved through a partnership between The Joint Commission and The American Heart Association, which established stroke care center certifications for hospitals nationwide. Despite this progress, North Carolina (NC) remains within the Stroke Belt due to the high prevalence of stroke there. In some areas of NC, the stroke mortality rate is 40% higher than the national average. Guided by the Donabedian model, this quantitative correlational study investigated the association between stroke center designation levels and the Hospital Consumer …
