The Ghosts of Guilt and Betrayal

Voller, Leslie Abigail 11 December 2009 (has links)
This creative thesis is comprised of stories that present characters who deal with guilt and betrayal and explores various points of view. My work is informed by Junot Diaz’s The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, which contains these themes and investigates narration. “Surviving Fog” centers around survivor’s guilt, while “Coming Full Circle, No Detour in Sight” demonstrates how a person can exert expectations on herself due to a religious background and personal values. Perhaps my most provocative story, “Beyond the Apple Orchard” delves into the emotional and physical betrayal of a father and the daughter’s struggles to overcome it. “Photographic Memories” embraces the surreal with a woman who can “read” photographs, whose story blends past transgressions that bleed into current ones, while “Send in the Clowns, Send in the Mob” explores herd mentality that stems from fear. Ultimately, each story contains kernels of truth that readers can grasp.

The Moderating Effect of Educational Background on the Efficacy of a Computer-Based Brief Intervention Addressing the Full Spectrum of Alcohol Use: Randomized Controlled Trial

Staudt, Andreas, Freyer-Adam, Jennis, Meyer, Christian, Bischof, Gallus, John, Ulrich, Baumann, Sophie 11 June 2024 (has links)
Background: The alcohol-attributable burden of disease is high among socially disadvantaged individuals. Interventional efforts intending to have a public health impact should also address the reduction of social inequalities due to alcohol. Objective: The aim was to test the moderating role of educational background on the efficacy of a computer-based brief intervention addressing the full spectrum of alcohol use. Methods: We recruited 1646 adults from the general population aged 18 to 64 years (920 women, 55.9%; mean age 31 years; 574 with less than 12 years of school education, 34.9%) who reported alcohol use in the past year. The participants were randomly assigned a brief alcohol intervention or to assessment only (participation rate, 66.9%, 1646/2463 eligible persons). Recruitment took place in a municipal registry office in one German city. All participants filled out a self-administered, tablet-based survey during the recruitment process and were assessed 3, 6, and 12 months later by study assistants via computer-assisted telephone interviews. The intervention consisted of 3 computer-generated and individualized feedback letters that were sent via mail at baseline, month 3, and month 6. The intervention was based on the transtheoretical model of behavior change and expert system software that generated the feedback letters automatically according to previously defined decision rules. The outcome was self-reported change in number of alcoholic drinks per week over 12 months. The moderator was school education according to highest general educational degree (less than 12 years of education vs 12 years or more). Covariates were sex, age, employment, smoking, and alcohol-related risk level. Results: Latent growth modeling revealed that the intervention effect after 12 months was moderated by educational background (incidence rate ratio 1.38, 95% CI 1.08-1.76). Individuals with less than 12 years of school education increased their weekly alcohol use to a lesser extent when they received the intervention compared to assessment only (incidence rate ratio 1.30, 95% CI 1.05-1.62; Bayes factor 3.82). No difference was found between groups (incidence rate ratio 0.95, 95% CI 0.84-1.07; Bayes factor 0.30) among those with 12 or more years of school education. Conclusions: The efficacy of an individualized brief alcohol intervention was moderated by the participants’ educational background. Alcohol users with less than 12 years of school education benefited, whereas those with 12 or more years did not. People with lower levels of education might be more receptive to the behavior change mechanisms used by brief alcohol interventions. The intervention approach may support the reduction of health inequalities in the population at large if individuals with low or medium education can be reached.

ChatGPT’s Performance on the BriefElectricity and Magnetism Assessment

Melin, Jakob, Elias, Önerud January 2024 (has links)
In this study, we tested the performance of ChatGPT-4 on the concept inventory Brief Electricity and Magnetism Assessment (BEMA) to understand its potential as an educational tool in physics, especially in tasks requiring visual interpretation. Our results indicate that ChatGPT-4 performs similarly to undergraduate students in introductory electromagnetism courses, with an average score close to that of the students. However, ChatGPT-4 displayed significant differences compared to students, particularly in tasks involving complex visual elements such as electrical circuits and magnetic field diagrams. While ChatGPT-4 was proficient in proposing correct physical reasoning, it struggled with accurately interpreting visual information. These findings suggest that while ChatGPT-4 can be a useful supplementary tool for students, it should not be relied upon as a primary tutor for subjects heavily dependent on visual interpretation. Instead, it could be more effective as a peer, where its outputs are critically evaluated by students. Further research should focus on improving ChatGPT’s visual processing capabilities and exploring its role in diverse educational contexts.

Die Korrespondenz der Herzogin Elisabeth von Sachsen - Zweiter Band, Die Jahre 1533 bis 1534

Klingner, Jens 07 March 2024 (has links)
Mit dem zweiten Band der Briefedition Herzogin Elisabeths von Sachsen (1502–1557) werden die Jahre 1533 und 1534 am Dresdner Hof erfasst. Dieser Zeitabschnitt stand ganz im Zeichen intensiver politischer Auseinandersetzungen um die reformatorische Bewegung Martin Luthers. Am altgläubigen Dresdner Hof hatte sich Herzogin Elisabeth bereits 1526 der lutherischen Lehre zugewandt und sich damit in eine gefährliche Situation begeben. Mit den Ende 1532 gegen sie erhobenen Ehebruchsvorwürfen verschärfte sich das Verhältnis zu ihrem Schwiegervater Herzog Georg. Der „Fall Elisabeth“ entwickelte sich über Sachsen hinaus zu einer diplomatisch-politischen Kontroverse zwischen den wichtigsten lutherischen und altgläubigen Fürsten der Reformationszeit. Nur mit Unterstützung des hessischen Landgrafen Philipp sowie des ernestinischen Kurfürsten Johann Friedrich konnte sie ihre Position behaupten und sich in religiösen sowie politischen Fragen engagieren. Der vorliegende Briefwechsel gehört zu den spannendsten und materialreichsten persönlichen Quellenzeugnissen einer Fürstin der Reformationszeit. Er ist eng mit den Reformationsdiskursen verbunden und vermittelt ein authentisches Bild der Lebenswelt einer Herzogin, die sich als politisch aktive Ehefrau und später als Witwe mit dem Geschehen der Zeit auseinandersetzte. Mit der Veröffentlichung dieser bedeutenden Fürstinnenkorrespondenz wird ein bislang weitgehend unbekanntes Quellenmaterial erschlossen.

La fidélité et la validité du "Brief Symptom Inventory" (BSI) auprès d'adultes âgés vivant à domicile

Côté, Sylvana 03 January 2022 (has links)
La fidélité et la validité de l'"Inventaire Bref des Symptômes" ( IBS) , traduction du Brief Symptom Inventory(BSI), ont été mesurées auprès d'une population d"adultes âgés francophones. L'analyse factoriel le a généré sept facteurs : Anxiété, Somatisation, Dépression, Aliénation Interpersonnelle, Rumination, Troubles Cognitifs, et Hostilité. La consistance interne des facteurs indique un minimum de .67 et un maximum de .84, ceci à l'exception du facteur Hostilité, ayant un coefficient Alpha de .40. Le coefficient Alpha total de l'échelle ainsi que la corrélation moitié-moitié sont de .91 et .90respectivement. Le test-retest entre les 7 nouveaux facteurs du BSI établi à deux et quatre semaines est élevé. Les corrélations entre les nouveaux facteurs sont de faibles à modérées, indiquant l'indépendance des facteurs. D'une façon générale, les résultats supportent l'utilisation du BSI auprès des adultes âgés mais proposent des limites quant aux inférences cliniques pouvant être faites à l'aide des sous-échelles du BSI.
