Data collected for "Providing an Eyewitness Testimony as an Individual who Stammers: Examining Accuracy/Completeness and Subjective Experiences"
No full textStammering may impede an individual's eyewitness testimony and reduce jurors' perceptions of their credibility through a complex interplay of bio-psycho-social factors. However, no research to date has explored this. Three co-produced, mixed-methods studies are reported, investigating the evidential quality, lived experiences and perceived credibility of people who stammer (PWS) as witnesses. In pre-registered Study 1, PWS recalled as much correct information as non-stammering witnesses overall. However, during the free – but not cued – recall interview phase, PWS provided fewer correct details. A reflexive thematic analysis of participants' post-testimony reflections captured how PWS experienced a cyclical relationship between communicative pressure, anxiety over listener misperceptions and stammer severity, which they navigated either by employing avoidance strategies at the expense of testimony or by speaking through their stammer. In pre-registered Study 2, mock jurors rated PWS as less confident yet more likeable and trustworthy than non-stammering witnesses. In Study 3, providing jurors with information about stammering further improved their likeability and trustworthiness but had no impact on perceived confidence. Findings provide new insight into communication disorders in legal contexts – and the unique challenges faced by PWS in particular – demonstrating the need for systemic accommodations and targeted training for legal professionals. This dataset contains * A SAV file with participant demographics, cognitive ability scores, and the data on completeness, errors, and accuracy of participants' testimony accounts in overall, free, and cued recall phases. * Another SAV file containing the number of correct details and errors, and accuracy (%) of 12 testimony accounts (6 accounts from each group) coded by two independent raters for inter-rater reliability. * Transcripts (docx) of the semi-structured interviews conducted in Study 1b. * The post-testimony survey responses (pdf) provided by participants who stammer
International education in transition:Perceptions of expatriate leadership at a Chinese school delivering an Australian curriculum
Get PDFThe burgeoning and transitioning field of private 'non-traditional' English-medium international schooling increasingly involves local schools delivering a Western-oriented curriculum to local children. This is especially evident in mainland China, which since 2019 has housed the most international schools. We present here a qualitative investigation of a Chinese senior school delivering an Australian curriculum. Informed by semi-structured interviews from the Chinese senior school's Australian expatriate leadership, we utilise the concept of ‘Sinicisation’ to explore how the Chinese state highly regulates the transnational movement of the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) for educational mobility between the school and foreign, primarily Australian higher education. Drawing on the voices of the expatriate leadership, this paper reveals how the localisation of international education has created a unique transnational social space of the Sino-Australian senior school to meet Chinese cultural and parental expectations
Image Reconstruction of Capacitively Coupled Electrical Resistance Tomography Based on An Improved Kalman Filter Model
Get PDFBy developing an improved Kalman filter (KF) model, a new imaging method of capacitively coupled electrical resistance tomography (CCERT) is proposed for monitoring multiphase flows. In the improved KF model, the innovative idea of state evolution learning is proposed to learn the spatiotemporal correlations between the fluid states, and the level-based state representation is integrated to reduce the state dimension and improve the computation efficiency. Correspondingly, the imaging method based on the improved KF model is proposed for CCERT. Experimental results of the gas-liquid two-phase flow verify the effectiveness and potential of the proposed method. The improved KF model can quickly and effectively learn and utilize the flow distribution regularities across time frames, and can achieve better imaging performance in both quality and efficiency. The largest average RIE and the smallest average CC of the images obtained by the proposed method are 0.125 and 0.831 for single-object distributions, respectively
The future within:Commitment, hope, and values in entrepreneurship
Get PDFThis paper provides philosophical foundations for understanding the future as an internal space for entrepreneurial aspirations. Our argument is laid out in three premises. First, the beliefs underpinning conceptions of the future are best seen as hinge commitments, not subject to rational critique. Second, hope generates the power to make new beginnings and thus enable the pursuit of different futures. Third, the pull of a different future is enabled by the creation of new values that can act as a compass for its pursuit. By engaging with the existential side of the entrepreneurial pursuit of imagined futures, our work aims to expand our scholarly activity
The State of the Art in Foreign Policy Analysis: An Introduction
Get PDFThis introductory article outlines the purpose and scope of a special issue dedicated to assessing the current state of Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA). We highlight FPA’s evolution as a subfield within International Relations, particularly emphasizing its distinctive focus on agency and the interplay between domestic and international factors in shaping foreign policy. We also introduce the special issue’s contributions to the literature from emerging and established scholars in exploring theoretical, methodological, and empirical innovations in FPA. We conclude that by embracing methodological pluralism and diverse units of analysis, the special issue showcases how FPA continues to enrich our understanding of international politics while providing ideas for promising directions for future research
The labour market returns to graduation:reconciling administrative and survey data estimates
Get PDFThis paper contributes to the literature on the earnings returns to university graduation. Recent evidence using administrative earnings data from England suggests a zero return to graduation for men and positive returns to graduation for women in annual earnings at age 26. We show that once hours worked are taken into account – typically not available in administrative tax data – returns to graduation in hourly wages are considerably smaller for women than returns in annual wages at this age. Graduate women work more hours than comparable non-graduate women; thus, not taking hours worked into account leads to overestimating returns to graduation for women by more than two-fold. This highlights the importance of using both survey and administrative data sources when estimating the returns to university graduation
