Synthesis of a Benzothiophene-Substituted Dibenzophosphole Oxide
No full textThe main goal of the experiment is to create a dibenzophosphole oxide with benzothiophenes as R groups in a conformation that has never been made before. A property of benzothiophenes is that they are anti-cancer agents. We are testing whether the dibenzophosphole oxide in this new conformation will aid in cancer research
McKee Foods FTIR Forensic Library
No full textI am partnered with McKee Foods analytical chemistry lab for my research project. I am utilizing SAU\u27s FTIR spirometry instrument to create an FTIR library for major McKee ingredients. This is a type of forensic library that can be used for identification of any unknown that may show up in their production process

Lost in Translation? Exploring Emotional Intelligence Differences Between Second Generation Immigrants and Third Generation Americans
No full textThis study investigates the construct of emotional intelligence (EI) within the under-researched population of second-generation immigrants in the United States. Research has shown that current EI tests often rely on a Westernized understanding of emotional expression and social interaction; therefore, this research aims to explore potential disparities in EI scores between second-generation immigrants and individuals with deeper American roots (third and fourth generation immigrants). By uncovering potential variations in EI based on generational and cultural factors, this research seeks to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of emotional intelligence in a globalized society. These findings can inform the development of culturally-sensitive EI assessments, fostering a more inclusive approach to measuring this critical human capacity

The Impact of Gender Disparity Among Women of Color in Undergraduate STEM Programs in Relation to Imposter Phenomenon
No full textThe purpose of the study is to understand the unique experiences of Women of colour in STEM fields and how gender and racial disparity affects this population. Existing research points out that there is a scarcity of women in STEM related fields which leads to discrimination and eventually a high dropout rate. There is also research that covers the topic of discrimination people of colour in STEM and the success rate of said people in their respective programs. It is also noted that high achieving women tend to have higher instances of IP compared to their male peers. Taking all this into consideration there is a research gap when it comes to exploring the intersection of race and gender in women of that are in male dominated space
IMMERSIVE JAPANESE LANGUAGE LEARNING WEB APPLICATION USING SPACED REPETITION, ACTIVE RECALL, AND AN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT CONVERSATIONAL CHAT AGENT BOTH IN VOICE AND IN TEXT
Get PDFIn the last two decades various human language learning applications, spaced repetition software, online dictionaries, and artificial intelligent chat agents have been developed. However, there is no solution to cohesively combine these technologies into a comprehensive language learning application including skills such as speaking, typing, listening, and reading. Our contribution is to provide an immersive language learning web application to the end user which combines spaced repetition, a study technique used to review information at systematic intervals, and active recall, the process of purposely retrieving information from memory during a review session, with an artificial intelligent conversational chat agent both in voice and in text. The proposed solution created with Japanese as the target language and English as the understood or source language. One benefit of this approach is that two end users do not have to be present in order to encounter new words through a natural conversational context. Another benefit is that a given end-user can use the web application without the fear of offending another person who speaks the language to be learned. What makes the proposed solution, called Immersio, different than other existing applications is the combination of the space repetition system which is tied to the chat page. Immersio was evaluated by a native Japanese speaker. It received an average score of 3.24 out of 5.0 points out of seventeen questions. In terms of five open-ended questions, the reviewer likes the following: the chat page worked well and the grammar was mostly correct and natural. However, he dislikes the following: Part-of-Speech and the dictionary, which were not readily accessible. Also, he was unable to upload audio. Moreover, he indicated that the review page was confusing, and he could not hear most of the audio voice from the AI chat
