The Paradox Of Visibility: Anti-Blackness, Pathologization, And The Limitations Of Canadian Criminal Law, Danardo Sanjay Jones

PhD Dissertations

This dissertation offers a quadripartite analysis of the endemic nature of anti-Black racism within Canadian criminal law, contributing to the growing body of Canadian critical race theory (CRT) literature and advancing the field of race-conscious doctrinal work on Canadian criminal law. Each chapter engages the system along different axes: (a) the temporal, procedural axis – moving from policing to the trial process to criminal sentencing; (b) the micro to the macro axis, with chapters that range from an individual case study to an analysis of a small constellation of recent court decisions, to a more theoretical analysis of foundational theories …

Disparities In Musculoskeletal Oncology, Abigail Koons, Elyse Smith, Jeffrey C. Stephens, Natilyn H. Mcknight, Jennifer Barr, *Izuchukwu K. Ibe

Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation Publications

Purpose of Review

Disparities within the healthcare system serve as barriers to care that lead to poor outcomes for patients. These healthcare disparities are present in all facets of medicine and extend to musculoskeletal oncology care. There are various tenets to health disparities with some factors being modifiable and non-modifiable. The factors play a direct role in a patient’s access to care, time of presentation, poor social determinants of health, outcomes and survival.

Recent Findings

In musculoskeletal oncologic care, factors such as race, socioeconomic factors and insurance status are correlated to advanced disease upon presentation and poor survival for patients …

Does Internalized Weight Bias Affect Reported Physical Activity In Adolescents?, Caroline Simmons, Brennen Till, Chad Jensen, Monica Martinez

FHSS Mentored Research Conference

Background: Negative internalized weight bias is associated with poorer mental health, while physical activity (PA) has been shown to have protective mental health benefits. Previous research with teens has not explored whether weight bias predicts PA participation. We evaluated weight bias internalization as a predictor of total minutes of PA, hypothesizing that greater weight bias would predict less PA participation.

Methods: One hundred participants ranging (14-18 years) have completed the study. Participants completed the Weight Bias Internalization Scale (WBIS) and the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A). Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between scores …

Settling Of Two Rigidly Connected Spheres, Z. Maches, Morgane Houssais

Physics

Laboratory experiments and particle-resolved simulations are employed to investigate the settling dynamics of a pair of rigidly connected spherical particles of unequal size. They yield a detailed picture of the transient evolution and the terminal values of the aggregate's orientation angle and its settling and drift velocities as functions of the aspect ratio and the Galileo number, which denotes the ratio of buoyancy and viscous forces acting on the aggregate. At low to moderate values of, the aggregate's orientation and velocity converge to their terminal values monotonically, whereas for higher -values the aggregate tends to undergo a more complex motion. …

Analyzing The Impact Of Academic And Financial Factors On The Employment Prosperity Of Engineering Graduates: A Case Study From Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta, Yuniar Indrihapsari, Muhammad Irfan Luthfi, Satya Adhiyaksa Ardy, Abdul Jaleel Kehinde Shittu

Elinvo (Electronics, Informatics, and Vocational Education)

The rapid technological advancements and evolving job markets present a pressing need to understand how academic experiences shape the career outcomes of engineering graduates. This understanding is crucial for educational institutions aiming to align their curricula with industry demands and for graduates seeking to maximize their career prospects. Notably, the role of financial support, academic performance, and early career experiences in influencing graduate prosperity remains underexplored. This study aims to analyze the correlation between finance support, GPA, study period, job waiting times, salary details, and the prosperity of graduates from the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta.

Evaluation Of Yolov8 Algorithm For Vehicle License Plate Detection System In Uny Integrated Parking Lot, Muhammad Azril Haidar Al Matiin, Fatchul Arifin

Elinvo (Electronics, Informatics, and Vocational Education)

The YOLOv8 algorithm for the license plate detection system of vehicles entering the integrated parking lot of Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) needs to be evaluated because license plate detection is crucial in integrated parking management to improve the security and efficiency of parking lot usage. YOLOv8, as a deep learning-based object detection algorithm, was chosen to improve the accuracy and speed of detection. This research combines the YOLOv8 approach with a dataset specifically designed for the context of UNY parking lots. The testing process was conducted using the required hardware and software to ensure the algorithm's ability to adapt to …

Health Risk Factors Of Female African American Informal Caregivers For Alzheimer’S Disease Patients In Low-Income Communities, Rosaline Elaine Elliott

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

By 2050, 152 million people worldwide, primarily low-income populations, will have Alzheimer's disease (AD). African American (AA) women informal caregivers are primary caregivers in low-income neighborhoods, and they suffer from burnout and poor health, including physical and mental fatigue, despair, anxiety, hypertension, and stressors that can lead to heart attacks, strokes, or premature mortality. The Informal Caregiver Integrative Model (ICIM) theoretical framework was used to survey 120 participants using SurveyMonkey was administered to collect data for this cross-sectional quantitative study. The multiple hierarchical regression analyses revealed caregiving appraisal had no significant impact on burnout. A higher quality of the caregiver-care …

Projected Near-Future Flooding And Warming Increase Graminoid Biomass In A High-Latitude Coastal Wetland, Matteo Petit Bon, A. Joshua Leffler, Katharine C. Kelsey, Tyler J. Williams, Karen H. Beard

Wildland Resources Faculty Publications

1. With rapid climate warming, some coastal high-latitude ecosystems are experiencing more frequent tidal floods. Yet little is known about tundra plant-community responses to flooding, and whether Arctic warming may modulate such responses.

2. In a 2-year, full-factorial field experiment in coastal tundra wetlands of the Yukon-Kuskokwim (Y-K) Delta (western Alaska), we simulated periodic tidal flood events at two severities under both ambient and warmed summer conditions and measured above-ground plant-community responses. Low-severity flooding represented overbank flooding 1 day per month, which is consistent with projections in the next 5 years. High-severity flooding represented a more impactful flooding regime (three consecutive days …

Exploring How Uncertain Labels From Non-Consensus Panels Affect Machine Learning, Amal Almansour

College of Computing and Digital Media Dissertations

A dataset becomes meaningful for analysis when it contains more representative features. Machine and deep learning models rely on annotated instances for training. The annotation process is usually done either by humans (experts or crowdsourcing) or by models. In many cases, the variability between humans (the inter-observer variability) in evaluation leads to uncertainty in the learning process. Due to the lack of reliable labels in large datasets, the inter-observer variability can be quantified with different methods to estimate the ground truth label (i.e., referenced standard label) for model learning.
