Clinic White Paper: Usd Tele-Mental Health Training Clinic, Nicholas Boyd, Lauren Bruaski

Community Engagement

California is home to over 1.8 million veterans and 18,000 National Guard members, representing one of the largest military-connected populations in the United States. Despite substantial demand, over 50% of veterans experiencing mental health symptoms do not seek treatment, while those seeking care within federal systems frequently face significant wait times. This academic white paper evaluates the operational framework, clinical effectiveness, and workforce expansion model of the University of San Diego (USD) Tele-Mental Health Training Clinic – Veterans Initiative. Utilizing a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth model paired with a tiered supervision structure, the clinic provides evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) at no cost …

Comparing The Working Conditions Of Principals And Assistant Principals In South Carolina, Brian Cartiff, Angela Starrett, Svetlana Dmitrieva

Reports

School administrators’ working conditions are closely linked to important professional outcomes, including their well-being, job satisfaction, and future career plans (Collie et al., 2020; Marsh et al., 2023; Mitani, 2018; Starrett et al., 2026; Steiner et al., 2022). Yet research on administrators' working conditions has focused primarily on principals, with comparatively little attention to assistant principals despite their central role in school leadership and daily operations (Barnett et al., 2012; Goldring et al., 2021). As a result, it remains unclear whether the working conditions associated with principals’ job satisfaction and intent to remain in their school leadership roles operate similarly …

Cross-Lexicon Emoji Sentiment Divergence For Arabic Sarcasm Detection, Rusul Hussein Hasan, Zinah Rajab Hussein, Mustafa Hussein Zwayyer, Nafea Jameel Khalaf Alhelal, Arkan Raheem Jebur, Duaa Adnan Tawfeek, Rasha Majid Hassoon

Mesopotamian Journal of Big Data

This study aims to determine whether the divergence between context-free and context-sensitive emoji sentiment scores can serve as a complementary signal for sarcasm detection in Arabic. This phenomenon has received little systematic attention so far. To address this aim, we conducted a multi-scale empirical investigation. At the lexicon level, we compared 1,031 overlapping emoji from two Arabic sentiment resources: the context-sensitive Arab-ESL, derived from 144,196 tweets, and the context-free CF-Arab-ESL, annotated by 53 native speakers across seven Arab regions. At the corpus level, we examined the divergence pattern in a stratified random sample of 199,999 tweets drawn from the 1,414,523-tweet …

Security And Resilience Of Ai-Enabled Edge Computing In Industrial Iot: Vulnerabilities, Defense Strategies, And Future Directions, Mostafa Abdulghafoor Mohammed, Mohammed Rashid Subhi, Salman Yussof

Mesopotamian Journal of CyberSecurity

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) deployments increasingly move intrusion detection from the cloud to edge gateways, where machine learning (ML) models inspect traffic close to programmable logic controllers, sensors, and supervisory systems. This shift shortens response times but places the detector itself inside the attack surface. This paper combines a structured analysis of threats and defenses for AI-driven IIoT edge security with a reproducible experimental study on the network partition of the TON_IoT testbed. We first show that the evaluation protocol is itself a vulnerability: host identifiers inflate the ten-class macro-F1 of a random forest by 3.8 points, and 55.6% …

Policy Brief: Closing Egypt’S Boardroom Gender Gap, Auc Egypt Women On Boards Observatory, Dcode Consulting

Faculty Journal Articles

Egypt has more than doubled women’s board representation since 2019, but the pace has slowed to 0.5 percentage points a year, less than half of what is needed to reach 30% by 2030.

Since the Women on Boards indicator was established, Egypt has made measurable progress in women’s board representation, rising from 10.0% in 2019 to 24.8% in 2025. This is a 14.8-percentage-point increase, equivalent to a 148% increase from the 10% baseline. Across the four sectors monitored in the AUC Women on Boards Observatory’s 2025 Annual Monitoring Report (banking, non-bank financial services (NBFS), EGX-listed companies and public enterprises), representation …

Book Note: Ai As A Thinking Partner: Faculty Strategies For Supporting Student Writing And Learning, Katelyn Romsa, Bryan Romsa, Skylar Hinricher

The Interdisciplinary Journal for Research on Pedagogy and Learning Design, Vol. 1, Issue 1., Fall 2026

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping higher education, presenting both significant opportunities and complex challenges for instructors. This Book Note highlights key insights from the third edition of Professional Writing for Social Work Practice by Weisman and Zornado (2025), a text that thoughtfully integrates generative AI into professional writing instruction. Drawing on the authors’ approach to teaching writing with AI, we synthesize four stages of AI integration for faculty, encouraging a relational rather than transactional approach to technology use. By positioning AI as a thinking partner rather than a shortcut, instructors can guide students toward ethical, reflective, and skill-enhancing writing …

Patient-Reported Barriers To Ongoing Engagement In Office-Based Buprenorphine Treatment In A Semi-Rural Missouri Clinic: A Cross-Sectional Survey, Jay Patel, Nathan Ngo, Kaley Hildebrand, Filomena J. Galdikas, Nauman Ashraf

Student Publications

Access to evidence-based treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) remains limited, and barriers to sustained engagement in office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) may vary across communities. This study aimed to characterize patient-reported barriers to accessing and remaining in OBOT in a semi-rural Missouri community. A single-center, cross-sectional descriptive survey at the Ozark Center clinic in Joplin, Missouri, was conducted among patients receiving OBOT for OUD. Approximately 170 patients were enrolled in the OBOT program during the study period, although not all patients were offered the survey due to scheduling and clinic workflow variability. The anonymous, paper-based 11-item survey was completed by …

Are Lagrangians Involving Fractional Derivatives Physically Viable?, Nicola Fabiano

Turkish Journal of Physics

The recent trend of incorporating fractional derivatives into Lagrangians prompts a critical assessment of their physical viability. This work analyzes such theories through the lenses of classical mechanics and quantum field theory (QFT), revealing profound foundational issues. While the nonlocal nature of fractional operators circumvents Ostrogradsky's theorem, it introduces more severe problems. Classically, these include a complicated variational principle and the violation of energy conservation due to broken time-translation symmetry. In QFT, the pathologies are fatal: the propagator violates the K\"all\'en--Lehmann spectral representation, leading to acausal propagation, ghost states, complex poles, and a loss of unitarity. We conclude that Lagrangians …

Human Biology Open Access Pre-Prints

Human pigmentation traits are among the most distinctive and variable phenotypes, providing valuable insight into human hair phenotypic diversity and population variation. Hair color is primarily determined by the relative proportions of eumelanin and pheomelanin, with genetic factors playing a dominant role. This study aimed to assess the distribution of hair pigmentation phenotypes and their association with demographic variables in the Pakhtun population of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. A total of 1,910 participants, aged 13–40 years, were included in the study after applying the exclusion criteria. Hair color was classified into four groups: black, brown, blond, and red, based on standardized …

Electron-Loss And Electron-Capture Cross Sections In  H + H₂⁺ Collisions, Saed J. Al Atawneh, Oqlah Al-Refai, Mohammed Abu-Seileek, Feras Afaneh

Turkish Journal of Physics

We investigate projectile electron-loss, target electron-loss, and target electron capture in H + H₂⁺ collisions using classical trajectory Monte Carlo (CTMC) and quantum-corrected classical trajectory Monte Carlo (QCTMC) methods within a fully four-body model. Energy-dependent cross sections are reported for all three channels. For projectile electron-loss, we additionally analyze impact-parameter-dependent probabilities and representative trajectories. The QCTMC method incorporates Heisenberg corrections, improving accuracy at low impact energies. Projectile and target electron-loss cross sections peak at intermediate energies and exhibit good agreement with H + H₂⁺ data at high energies. At low to intermediate energies, projectile electron-loss exceeds target electron-loss because the …

Nonlinear Mode Crossing And Spontaneous Frequency Comb Generation In Driven Magnetic Nanodisks, Hasan Pi̇şki̇n

Turkish Journal of Physics

Nonlinear magnetization dynamics in confined nanostructures provide a rich platform for fundamental studies and advanced spintronic applications. Here, we investigate the driven dynamics of a perpendicularly magnetized permalloy nanodisk using high-resolution micromagnetic simulations. In the linear regime, geometric confinement quantizes the uniform precession into discrete radial standing spin-wave (SSW) modes. As the excitation amplitude increases, the fundamental Kittel mode exhibits a pronounced nonlinear frequency shift relative to the higher-order SSW modes, ultimately leading to a critical mode crossing associated with nonlinear resonance overlap and the breakdown of modal orthogonality. Time-domain analysis reveals that strong mode hybridization governs the ensuing dynamics, …

Microscopic Study Of Β-Decay And Stellar Weak Rates In Neutron-Rich Scandium Isotopes, Wajeeha Khalid, Jameel-Un Nabi, Maria Ramzan

Turkish Journal of Physics

This study provides a critical investigation of the β-decay characteristics of neutron-rich scandium isotopes (53-65Sc) using the proton-neutron quasiparticle random phase approximation (pn-QRPA) model. The theoretical framework allows for a microscopic understanding of spin-isospin excitation modes that are essential for examining weak interaction phenomena. Charge-changing Gamow-Teller (GT) strength distributions were calculated and found to agree well with existing experimental results, thereby confirming the model's capacity to accurately represent the nuclear configuration of these isotopes. The computed β-decay half-lives and corresponding log ft values exhibit good agreement with experimental data, further validating the GT strength distributions and reinforcing the consistency of …
