Exploring Factors Associated with Depressive Symptoms in Emerging Adults from Divorced Families
This study aims to build new empirical knowledge by specifically investigating whether the past provision of safety and security from family of origin and past mentor support, along with a current level of positive support vs. negativity from family of origin, may influence the level of depression symptoms in emerging adults from divorced families. This studies hypothesis is: Controling for gender, race, education, and marital status of emerging adults from divorced families, higher levels of depressive symptoms will be associated with and predicted by past lower provision of safety and security from family of origin, past lower level of mentor support, current lower support from family of origin, and current higher negativity from family of origin.This Research Day material is made accessible exclusively to The Catholic University of America web community
Kurt Rollins, Interview, August 24, 2019
INTERVIEW DESCRIPTION: Kurt Rollins, born and raised in DC, reflects on his memories of Anacostia Park and go-go music in DC. He remembers going to go-go events in the Park, and talks about how the different clothing people would wear signified what DC neighborhood they were from. Kurt discusses the importance of keeping go-go culture alive, even in what he sees are more violent present times, and reflects on how proud he is of his heritage. He briefly addresses gentrification as making DC different, but sees it as necessary in some areas. His ultimate goal: "I just hope we can come together and live harmoniously."EVENT DESCRIPTION: The Humanities Truck joined the National Park Service for Late Skate at Anacostia Park Roller Skating Pavilion. During the event, community members, neighbors, family, and friends host cookouts and gather at the pavilion to skate and do family-oriented activities including face painting. At three separate events, in June, July, and August, we conducted brief interviews with community members about the importance of Anacostia Park to the neighborhood including themes about go-go music and skating. After recording, we would play the interviews on the opposite side of the truck to quickly allow narrators and passers-by and spectators to see themselves and hear their story
Anomaly behaviour detection based on the meta‐Morisita index for large scale spatio‐temporal data set
Published in: Journal of Big Data, volume 5, Article number: 23 (2018).In this paper, we propose a framework for processing and analysing large-scale spatio-temporal data that uses a battery of machine learning methods based on a meta-data representation of point patterns. Existing spatio-temporal analysis methods do not include a specific mechanism for analysing meta-data (point pattern information). In this work, we extend a spatial point pattern analysis method (the Morisita index) with meta-data analysis, which includes anomaly behaviour detection and unsupervised learning to support spatio-temporal data analysis and demonstrate its practical use. The resulting framework is robust and has the capability to detect anomalies among large-scale spatio-temporal data using meta-data based on point pattern analysis. It returns visualized reports to end users
