Abolitionism And The Struggle Against Slavery In Livingston County, Justin Behrend Ph.D.

History

This article examines the abolitionist movement in Livingston County, New York, through the records of the Livingston County Anti-Slavery Society. It shows how this region in Western New York transformed from one where slavery was tolerated to one where people fought against slavery during the Civil War. Activists between 1837 and 1839 organized meetings to spread abolitionism and to push the United States to abolish slavery.

“Sometimes I Have To Figure Things Out By Talking About Them”: Conceptualizing Think-Aloud Protocols As Spaces For Reflexivity During Open Textbook Construction, Dawn Atkinson, Stacey Corbitt Oct 2025

“Sometimes I Have To Figure Things Out By Talking About Them”: Conceptualizing Think-Aloud Protocols As Spaces For Reflexivity During Open Textbook Construction, Dawn Atkinson, Stacey Corbitt

Writing

Abstract Open textbooks, freely available open educational resources, have an ever-growing presence in learning environments around the world, though detailed studies of their development are rare. The challenges of tracking textbook writing activity in a precise manner over time may account for this sparsity. To highlight how process-tracing research can contribute insight to the textbook development literature, particularly that focused on open textbook writing, this study addresses the roles that think-aloud protocols (TAPs) played during the construction of an open corequisite writing textbook. The volume, which was designed with underprepared university students in mind, stresses the growth of academic and …

Islams And Modernity In Cyprus And Turkey: A Comparative Perspective, Michael Todd Smith Oct 2025

Islams And Modernity In Cyprus And Turkey: A Comparative Perspective, Michael Todd Smith

School of Political Science, Public Affairs, Legal and Security Studies Faculty Publications

This article critically analyzes Aziz Al-Azmeh’s concept of Islams, while arguing for a contextbased analysis of the meeting between religious identity and modernity. It provides a loose framework for analyzing encounters between Islams and modernity in the cases of Cyprus and Turkey. Despite their close cultural and political connections at the rise of modernity, these two cases diverge, showcasing a high degree of public and private secularism in Cyprus and a contested public secularism and significant private religious identification in Turkey.


From Altamont To Astroworld: An Analysis Of Management Issues In Large Scale Music Festivals, Jennifer Morriss Oct 2025

From Altamont To Astroworld: An Analysis Of Management Issues In Large Scale Music Festivals, Jennifer Morriss

Honors College Theses

The most common problems in music festivals can largely be broken into two categories: risks to the individual and risks on a grand scale. It is the responsibility of event managers to consider how to best keep everyone safe and maintain proper organization. Risks to the individual are often things like substance use and abuse, harm reduction, and sexual assault or harassment. Meanwhile, broad risks tend to be issues of evacuation and emergency management, crowd safety, stampedes, and casualties or violence. It is crucial to reflect on prior common safety and security issues when setting out to produce a large …


Two Moles, Two Worlds: Network Analysis Of Infernal Affairs And The Departed, Melissa Vu Oct 2025

Two Moles, Two Worlds: Network Analysis Of Infernal Affairs And The Departed, Melissa Vu

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

This project aims to explore how adaptation reshapes the social architecture of a movie. To do this, I used social network analysis to compare the character dynamics between Infernal Affairs(Hong Kong, 2002) and its U.S. adaptation The Departed(2006) in two ways: co-presence networks (characters connected when they appear in the same scene, with edge weights capturing repeated co-appearance) and directed dialogue network (arrows representing who speaks to whom, with thicker arrows indicating more frequent dialogue). Comparing the network structures across the two films reveals meaningful differences in group structure, connecting roles, and the concentration of dialogue around key characters, which …


Lights, Camera, Action! Mapping Concentration, Wealth, And Stability In Nyc Film Production, Mariah Szabo Oct 2025

Lights, Camera, Action! Mapping Concentration, Wealth, And Stability In Nyc Film Production, Mariah Szabo

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

This project is a comprehensive analysis of over 93,000 New York City film permits from 2012-2025. A geographic analysis reveals that filming activity is concentrated in a small number of neighborhoods, although slight differences are visible based on the type of media being filmed. This geographic pattern has remained stable over the 13 years studied, despite major disruptions like COVID-19 and the streaming boom. Notably, a joint analysis with a New York City household income dataset shows that these neighborhoods stand as wealthier than the average New York City neighborhood. The result is an “NYC on Film” that represents only …


Mapping Interior Focalization: Social Network Analysis And Free Indirect Discourse In Mrs. Dalloway, Zhuojun Jiang Oct 2025

Mapping Interior Focalization: Social Network Analysis And Free Indirect Discourse In Mrs. Dalloway, Zhuojun Jiang

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

Mrs. Dalloway, a highly renowned stream-of-consciousness novel in modern literature, employs extensive use of free indirect speech and shifting focalization, leaving the relationships between its characters elusive and sophisticated. How does social network analysis behave when focalization shifts rapidly across characters in free indirect discourse? This study employs specific literary analysis with social network analysis as digital humanities methodology to investigate the contrast between the superficial social structures and the interior psychological relationship structures. I referenced Jessica Daugherty’s poster on social network analysis and Professor Elkin’s sentiment analysis on Mrs. Dalloway as my sources of inspiration, and I used ChatGPT, …


French Reactions To 9/11: An Analysis Of French Newspaper Articles Published September 12, 2001, Rose Plottel Oct 2025

French Reactions To 9/11: An Analysis Of French Newspaper Articles Published September 12, 2001, Rose Plottel

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

This research presents a hierarchical cluster analysis and aspect based sentiment analysis (ABSA) of French newspaper articles about the September 11 attacks published on September 12, 2001. The study focuses specifically on the key thematic clusters discussed across these articles and the variance in sentiment scores across them. Using Dendrogram Hierarchical Modeling and ABSA, the model identified six thematic clusters and measured thematic scores for each cluster as well as their key terms on a scale ranging [-1,1]. The analysis revealed simultaneous sympathy for the American people alongside scrutiny of potential American retaliation.


Sentiment Oscillations In Mafia Cinema: Using Sentiment Analysis To Quantify The Critical Disparity Within The Godfather Trilogy, Andrew Vera Oct 2025

Sentiment Oscillations In Mafia Cinema: Using Sentiment Analysis To Quantify The Critical Disparity Within The Godfather Trilogy, Andrew Vera

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

This project uses sentiment analysis technology to examine the screenplays of The Godfather trilogy. Sentiment analysis generates data based on dramatic dialogue, rating each line on a sentiment scale that indicates the level of emotional intensity or neutrality, as well as whether the sentiment is positive or negative. By using this technology, the study identifies the unique curves of each film, allowing for a comparison of narrative peaks and valleys that helps explain the disparity between the series' acclaim and its criticism. Additionally, by measuring the sentiment arc disparities, the study seeks to illustrate why the first two films in …


Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis With Llms: Are Large Language Models Able To Accurately Score Sentiment In Company Earnings Calls?, Peyton Hodges Oct 2025

Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis With Llms: Are Large Language Models Able To Accurately Score Sentiment In Company Earnings Calls?, Peyton Hodges

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

When a company releases an earnings call, it can have a big impact on the respective stock market performance of that company. Investors of all types do their best to analyze the data and sentiment provided by the senior executive members to gauge potential future trends of the stock price. Earnings calls are especially important for companies like Nvidia that are making waves in the tech world as AI continues to grow. Previously, sentiment analyses were typically reserved for big companies who specialize in financial quantitative analysis. However, the introduction of Large Language Models (LLMs) such as Gemini, ChatGPT, and …


Examining The Ohio 5’S Identities: A Data Analysis Of College Mission Statements, Olivia Hiner Oct 2025

Examining The Ohio 5’S Identities: A Data Analysis Of College Mission Statements, Olivia Hiner

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

How do the Ohio 5 compare in their mission statements? Being in such close proximity to each other, they compete in enrollment, sports, academics, student life, and more. This study utilizes mission statements in order to observe semantic similarity. By running the code, a heatmap, semantic map, and 3D semantic space reveal that Kenyon’s mission statement is most similar to the others whilst Oberlin is most dissimilar.


Reading Between The Taglines: Regional Topic Frequencies In Reality Television Narratives, Ava Fattahi Oct 2025

Reading Between The Taglines: Regional Topic Frequencies In Reality Television Narratives, Ava Fattahi

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

This project uses topic and word frequency arcs to explore a seemingly frivolous yet ultimately revealing part of modern TV: The Real Housewives franchise (2006-). By looking at the taglines the women use to introduce themselves along with full transcripts of episodes, I want to examine how the mood and language of different cities change from region to region of the wildly popular series. I focus on a small sample size of three areas: the West Coast (Beverly Hills), the Northeast (New York City), and the South (Atlanta). Based on what I have noticed as a longtime viewer of the …


From Nature To Finance: The Language Of Environmental Governance Through Unep Reports, Elizabeth Aiken Oct 2025

From Nature To Finance: The Language Of Environmental Governance Through Unep Reports, Elizabeth Aiken

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

This project applies the computational text analysis methods from Franco Moretti and Dominique Pestre's "Bankspeak" to examine how the United Nations Environment Programme’s (UNEP) language has evolved in its annual reports from 1975 to 2024. Founded in 1972 as the UN’s main environmental authority, the UNEP plays a vital role in global discourse surrounding climate change and environmental challenges. Using Python-based computational methods to track word frequencies, semantic clusters, and grammatical patterns across five decades of annual reports, this analysis reveals three distinct linguistic periods. These periods include an early period (1975-1989), which emphasizes nature and scientific terms, a middle …


Emotional Stability And Deception In Multi-Agent Ai Negotiations Tracking Emotional Drift, Persuasion And Influence Using Valence-Arousal-Dominance, Godwin Idowu Oct 2025

Emotional Stability And Deception In Multi-Agent Ai Negotiations Tracking Emotional Drift, Persuasion And Influence Using Valence-Arousal-Dominance, Godwin Idowu

IPHS 200: Programming Humanity

Today, large language models are often applied as smart agents who are capable of communicating, negotiating and making decisions together in the same space. In this work, I designed a test scenario where three different AI agents, having different goals, a cooperative helper, a competitive maximizer, and a deceptive agent, are sharing resources in a number of rounds. I would like to observe how the different goals of the agents affect the emotions of the agents. Each time the agents meet, I interpret their communications to assign them numerical values that measure the intensity of their perceived positivity, excitement, or …
