AbstractAfter winning the 2014 Lok Sabha, In the 17th Lok Sabha general election 2019 with 303 seats in the Indian People’s Council. The Bharatiya Janata Party (Narendra Modi)’s victory re-occupied the posotion as the hightest authority in the Indian Parliament which brought Modi return to his position as Prime Minister of India. The author uses Angush Chambell’s Rational Choice Theory to explain how the voter behavior was a factor in BJP (Modi)’s Victory in India’s 17th Lok Sabha.

Background note: Standard essential patents, innovation and competition: Challenges in India
No full textIn September 2014, a few months after a landslide election victory, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the launch of "Make in India," an ambitious program designed to turn India into a global manufacturing hub. One of the factors widely thought to be responsible for Modi's victory was support from India's "neo-middle class"-a young, newly urbanized section of the electorate seeking employment and improved living standards but struggling amidst an economic downturn.1 In a speech inaugurating Make in India, Modi linked the program with the aspirations of this section of society. Modi stated the need to elevate the status of the poor-to-middle class as fast as possible, noting that sixty-five percent of India's population was aged thirty-five and below. 2 He declared that the "[s]traight answer" to achieve this goal would be to create jobs in the manufacturing sector.
Maternal antecedents to adolescent girls’ neural regulation of emotion
No full textCurrent research on adolescent brain development has uncovered individual differences in patterns of functional connectivity during the regulation of emotions, reflecting differences in psychological and emotional functioning. The purpose of this study was to identify possible contributors to these individual differences by investigating the role of maternal emotional resources, in the form of adult attachment and emotional awareness. Participants included 35 adolescent girls (M age = 15.51, SD = 0.37) who completed an implicit emotion regulation task (Lieberman et al., 2007) during an fMRI scan following 9th grade. Mothers reported on the quality of their adult attachment when youth were in 3rd and 4th grades and reported on their emotional awareness when youth were in 4th and 5th grades. We found that higher levels of maternal anxious attachment and lower levels of maternal emotional awareness were significantly correlated with more positive (i.e., ineffective) amygdala-right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (rVLPFC) connectivity. Further, path analysis revealed that there was an indirect effect of maternal anxious attachment on adolescent functional connectivity through maternal emotional awareness. These results suggest that exposure to compromised maternal emotional resources in childhood may be linked to the development of ineffective neural processing of emotions, highlighting one pathway for the intergenerational transmission of disrupted emotion processing.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-12-01The student, Haina Modi, accepted the attached license on 2018-11-19 at 09:33.The student, Haina Modi, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-11-19 at 09:42.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-11-26 at 11:59.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #13098 on 2019-02-07 at 14:17:36Made available in DSpace on 2019-02-07T20:35:58Z (GMT).

En Modi-fierad demokrati : En kvantitativ innehållsanalys gällande amerikansk nyhetsrapportering om Indien
No full textThe Swedish independent research institute V-Dem, which measures democracy around the world, declared in their most recent report on the issue that India was no longer classified as a democracy, but an electoral autocracy. Amongst other things, V-Dem draws the conclusion that the election of the Hindu nationalist leader Narendra Modi in 2014 has been a strong contributor to the decline in democracy in India. At the same time, The U.S. Department of State declares that the U.S.-India partnership is founded on a shared commitment to freedom and democratic principles. With India as a close ally, friction could arise. This thesis aims to explore how India is portrayed in American media, to get a broader understanding of how Americans view India and Narendra Modi. Many scholars believe policy is based on people’s opinions, and people’s opinions are largely based on how the media portrays certain issues. The author also draws a comparison between American right-leaning media outlets and left-leaning media outlets to examine if there are any differences regarding the depiction of India between them. By performing a quantitative content analysis, the author aims to examine how American media portrays India, its leaders, and democracy. The layout of the study is based on exanimating 175 published articles about India and coding them via a codebook designed to measure democratic values and the depiction of Narendra Modi, his government, and party BJP. The findings suggest that when democratic values are depicted in articles about India, it is mostly in negative terms. On the other hand, the portrayal of Narendra Modi, his government, and his party are more balanced. The findings also suggest that right-leaning and left-leaning media have a very similar way of portraying India, its democracy, and Narendra Modi
Psychological treatments in schizophrenia: II. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials of social skills training and cognitive remediation
No full textBackground. Social skills training and cognitive remediation are psychological techniques with considerable face validity for the treatment of negative symptoms of schizophrenia and their consequences. This paper provides a meta-analytical review of these treatments. It includes an appreciable number of randomized controlled trials, using comparisons against both standard care and other active interventions. However, the assessment of particular outcomes sometimes had to be based on single studies.Method. A detailed search strategy was used to identify randomized controlled trials of social skills training and cognitive remediation, primarily employing electronic databases. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that met predefined criteria were then subjected to meta-analysis on a variety of outcome measures.Results. There was no clear evidence for any benefits of social skills training on relapse rate, global adjustment, social functioning, quality of life or treatment compliance. Cognitive remediation had no benefit on attention, verbal memory, visual memory, planning, cognitive flexibility or mental state.Conclusions. Social skills training and cognitive remediation do not appear to confer reliable benefits for patients with schizophrenia and cannot be recommended for clinical practice
Performance analysis of machine learning applications on rapid: a highly parallel computer architecture
No full textOver the past few years, the interest and application of machine learning algorithms has risen exponentially. Machine learning has found extensive use in diverse fields like self-driving cars, speech recognition, image processing, computer vision, molecular biology, security etc. A lot of recent research involves evaluation of machine learning applications on different architectures. In this thesis, we evaluate the performance of six common machine learning algorithms: K-Means, K-Nearest Neighbors, Linear Regression, Latent Dirichlet Allocation, Deep Neural Network, and Radix Sort on RAPID. RAPID is a highly parallel computer architecture developed at Oracle Labs for accelerating and improving the performance of database analytic workloads. We find that the RAPID platform performs well on the performance-per-watt metric i.e. it is a power-efficient architecture. Moreover, the machine learning applications can be easily scaled to hundreds of nodes of the RAPID architecture, thereby making it suitable for distributed machine learning applications. However, we find certain bottlenecks in the micro-architecture, memory system and network of the RAPID architecture and propose optimizations to make it a more performance efficient architecture for machine learning applications.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2019-05-01The student, Aakash Modi, accepted the attached license on 2017-04-26 at 12:22.The student, Aakash Modi, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2017-04-26 at 12:30.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2017-04-26 at 16:22.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #11087 on 2017-08-10 at 14:32:41Made available in DSpace on 2017-08-10T19:52:24Z (GMT).
