Feeling the narrative control(ler):casual art games as trauma therapy
Full text linkThrough a combination of aesthetics and game mechanics, casual art games offer unique engagements with trauma, allowing players to practice grief or empathise with the traumatic experiences of others. Both “Spiritfarer” (Thunder Lotus Games 2020) and „Mutazione” (Die Gute Fabrik 2019) utilise similar aesthetics (2D art, pastel colours and calming music) alongside agency-driven gameplay mechanics (choosing when to let spirits go or how to react to a character’s trauma) that create a safe space. This is possible because neither game is competitive, nor does it allow the player to lose. Instead, agency is given to the player through narrative choice and exploration of the beautiful storyworld. We argue that games like “Spiritfarer” and “Mutazione” can be used as models for the further development of casual art games that can be used as art therapy through their emotional connections embedded in both the aesthetics and gameplay

Hazelnut and adult hazelnut weevil monitoring at Minnesota sites from 2020-2022
No full textDuring the field seasons of 2020 and 2021, two hazelnut research plantings at the University of Minnesota (one on the St. Paul campus and one at UMore park in Rosemount, MN) were sampled for adult weevils via beat-sheet sampling. This occurred from late May through July of each year. Two plants of six hybrid hazelnut genotypes at each of the hazelnut research plantings, for a total of 24 plants across sites, were sampled as follows: each in-row side plants were sampled for weevils via beat sheet sampling involving one person holding a one-meter canvas cloth under the side of the plant and another person beating about one-half of the plant onto the canvas 10 times with a wooden dowel. Plant/nut phenology characteristics were also recorded each week by randomly measuring the dimensions (height and 2 widths) of five hazelnut clusters on each sampled plant (via digital calipers; eventually to calculate volume), and picking five random nuts from each plant and measuring each hazelnut's respective in-shell volume, shell thickness, and shell hardness. Detailed methods for these measurements can be found in the doctoral dissertation of Hailey N Shanovich that is published with the digital conservancy of the University of Minnesota.
In August of 2020, 2021, and 2022, before hazelnut harvest, every plant in at the hybrid hazelnut planting at the Rosemount, MN was sampled to determine whole-field infestation by hazelnut weevils. Additionally, in 2021, every plant at this site was also beat-sheet sampled in order to record the adult hazelnut weevil abundance on each plant and examine any spatial patterns of adult abundance in the planting. Plant characteristics such as plant height, volume, and genotype were recorded for each plant, as well, in order to examine whether any of these predicted adult weevil abundance or nut infestation.
In 2022, the same hazelnut phenology characteristics were recorded as described above during the hazelnut weevils' egg-laying period as determined from data we collected in 2020 and 2021 for a larger sample of plants of each genotype in order to analyze whether any of these factors differed between hybrid hazel genotypes during their egg-laying period that could describe differences we observed between infestation of the genotypes.
Little to no curation was performed on this dataset. DRUM can not verify the completeness or quality of the documentation, nor the FAIRness of the included files. Please contact the author with any questions.This data was collected in order to determine the phenology of adult hazelnut weevils (Curculio obtusus) within interspecific hybrid hazelnut (Corylus americana x Corylus avellana) plantings in Minnesota and identify hazelnut factors that might be driving the weevils within-field abundance and infestation/damage in the crop between different hazelnut genotypes. Adult hazelnut weevil lay eggs into developing hazelnuts and their larvae then develop inside hazelnuts, devouring the edible kernel, directly impacting crop yield. Therefore, the objective was to determine when this behavior occurs in the Minnesota crop and to identify any plant-level or nut-level factors driving spatial trends in their abundance and nut infestation within the hazelnut plantings.University of Minnesota - Bell Museum Award (James Wilkie Fund)United States Department of Agriculture - Specialty Crop Research Initiative (2019-51181-30025)University of Minnesota - Louise T.

White, Asian, Latinx, and Black Families Make Race-Based School Choices
No full textMost students in the United States attend racially segregated schools. To explain school racial segregation, researchers often highlight structural factors such as school assignment based on racially segregated neighborhoods. And while these structures contribute to segregation, schools in cities without residential school assignments are also segregated. Understanding families’ school preferences, particularly if they are motivated by race, is necessary to evaluate the impact on racial segregation of expanded school-choice policies. Using data from an experimental study in which eighth-grade students and their parents were asked about their willingness to attend hypothetical high schools with randomized majority White, majority Latinx, majority Black, and racially diverse compositions, PRC faculty scholar Chantal Hailey finds that schools’ racial composition affects families’ school preferences. In order to decrease racial segregation in schools, Dr. Hailey advocates for policymakers to dismantle educational practices that perpetuate negative stereotypes and marginalize student populations.Population Research Cente

European fruit lecanium (Parthenolecanium corni) occurrence in hybrid hazelnut plantings in Minnesota and associated parasitoid fauna from 2022
No full textThe datafile conserved here is an Excel file consisting of 5 sheets: 1) metadata, 2) data collected from two field sampling dates at the hybrid hazel plantings, 3) final collected data after rearing scale insect samples for parasitoid wasps, 4) the data organized for optimization in R software for analysis, and 5) measurements of the length of fruiting bodies (i.e., stromata) of Ophiocordyceps clavulata on collected scale insects for identification purposes.
Little to no curation was performed on this dataset. DRUM can not verify the completeness or quality of the documentation, nor the FAIRness of the included files. Please contact the author with any questions.These data were collected in the summer of 2022 as an independent undergraduate research project at the University of Minnesota by Simone Traband (undergraduate student, class of '24) under the mentorship of Hailey Shanovich (graduate student, class of '23). The goals of the project were to collect preliminary data on 1) the abundance of a soft scale insect pest, European fruit lecanium (Parthenolecanium corni), on hybrid hazelnut plants (Corylus americana x Corylus avellana) in experimental plantings at the University of Minnesota research stations, and 2) the prevalence of biological control by Hymenopteran parasitoid wasps and an endoparasitic fungi (Ophiocordyceps clavulata). These data accompany the paper "Synopsis of biological control for European fruit lecanium (Parthenolecanium corni) by parasitoids in North America and preliminary findings in hybrid hazelnut orchards" by Traband et al. 2023 in the Great Lakes Entomologist.
The preliminary field experiment was conducted at two experimental hybrid hazel plantings in Rosemount, Minnesota. Full details of study sites and other methodology can be found in the paper by Traband et al. 2023. On 11 July 2022 seven infested hazel plants were chosen to sample for scale insects from one hybrid hazelnut planting (n=7), and then on 22 July 2022 from two hybrid hazelnuts plantings (n = 4, n = 3) for a total of 14 plants. On each date, sampling of each plant was done for 15 person-minutes (i.e., three observers searching each plant for scales for five minutes), during which branches observed to contain one or more scale insects, no matter the status (i.e., showed signs of parasitism or not), were collected via hand pruners. Collected branches were immediately brought back to the lab and thoroughly examined to determine the number and status of every scale insect broken into three categories: showing signs of parasitism by fungus (i.e., fungal stromata protruding from scale insect), showing signs of parasitism by Hymenopteran parasitoids (i.e., containing a parasitoid exit hole in shell), or showing no signs of parasitism (i.e., showing no signs of parasitism). Branches containing scales showing no signs of parasitism were preserved for a duration of three weeks for purposes of parasitoid rearing and inspected every other day and any emerged parasitoids were collected and frozen until they could be identified. On 8 August 2022, all scale insects contained in jars were inspected for parasitoid exit holes, dissected to check for parasitoid larvae, pupae, or adults, and then discarded. All collected Hymenopteran parasitoid wasps were identified to the lowest taxonomic level possible.Traband, Simone G; Aukema, Brian H; Luhman, John C; Shanovich, Hailey N. (2023).
