A home office-ban dolgozó extrovertált és introvertált személyiségtípusok és a depresszió kapcsolata
No full textNagy műhelymunkámban a kiégés jelenségével foglalkozom az aktívan pedagógus szakmában
dolgozók körében. A dolgozatomban a burn out-témán belül a pedagógusok motiváltságát
vizsgálom a prevenciós programokon való részvételi hajlandóság alapján. Elemezni fogom,
milyen fokon állnak a burn out-jelenségben, köztük összehasonlítást, elemzést szeretnék tenni
a motivációval kapcsolatban. Kutatásom kitér arra, hogy ha részt vettek ilyen jellegű
programokon, milyen célból és indíttatásból tették azt, mit éreztek a program során, illetve, mit
adott a számukra a prevenció. Ezek alapján lehetőség nyílik arra, hogy pontosabb képet kapjunk
a pedagógusok részvételi motivációjáról és ennek kiégéssel való kapcsolatáról is.PszichológiaBSc/B

Enhancing Home Computer User Information Security: Factors to Consider in the Design of Anti-phishing Applications
No full textx, 116 p. : ill. This paper was completed as part of the final research component in the University of Oregon Applied Information Management Master's Degree Program [see htpp://aim.uoregon.edu].As home computer users increase dependency on the Internet to complete electronic transactions, the need to resolve phishing vulnerabilities in the user interface becomes more urgent (Dhamija & Tygar, 2005a). Selected literature published between 2004 and 2007 is analyzed to provide designers and developers of anti-phishing applications with a set of fundamental user-centered design principles to consider prior to system design and technology solutions selection. The significance of anti-phishing user education is also examined.

A felnőttkori kötődés és az élettel való elégedettség vizsgálata az életkor függvényében a párkapcsolatban élők és az egyedülállók körében
No full textDiplomamunkámban elsősorban a kötődéssel és az élettel való elégedettséggel foglalkoztam, de kitértem a további esetleges befolyásoló tényezők vizsgálatára is, mint az életkor és a párkapcsolat típusa, gondolok itt az együttélésre, együtt járásra és a házasságra, mint a leggyakoribb kapcsolati formákra. Elemeztem ezen kívül az egyedülállók csoportját, illetve azokat, akiknek soha sem volt kapcsolata és mindezeket a kötődéssel összefüggésben vizsgáltam. A dolgozatomban főképp a fenti kérdésekre kerestem választ az általam elvégzett statisztikai elemzések alapján. A kutatásom során nagyobb rálátást kaphattam a felvetődött kérdésekre, a statisztikai kiértékelések mentén.KEPszichológiaMSc/M

Melinda Wagner and Her Piano Concerto: "Extremity of Sky"
No full textMelinda Wagner (1957-) is one of the most influential female American composers across the 20th and 21st centuries. Extremity of Sky: Concerto for Piano and Orchestra was a commissioned work by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra for Emanuel Ax with funding from the Prince Prize. Wagner was writing the second movement of the concerto when the September 11 attacks happened in New York City. Later, she named this piece “Extremity of Sky,” metaphorically alluding to the dark smoke in the sky. Wagner finally completed this work in 2002, with a traditional four-movement frame: Opening, Departure, Prayer-Chain, and Varied Return. The grandiosity and bravura of its structure, orchestration, sonority, and arrangement continually strike the hearts of listeners.This essay will include Melinda Wagner’s biography, compositional style, and it will also provide a theoretical analysis of her piano concerto. The author hopes that this research will provide an introduction to the remarkable composer Melinda Wagner and help pianists who desire to understand the general structure and compositional principle of this music. </p
Development of an in vitro tool to measure the function of neurons protected from glutamate-induced excitotoxicity
No full textTraumatic brain injury (TBI) results in devastating neurological damage that affects millions of individuals each year. TBI occurs as a result of an external physical insult that leads to mechanical injury followed by a cascade of secondary chemical insults that develop over a period of hours to days, damaging cells and tissue further removed from the initial site of injury. Often, this secondary injury leads to more significant clinical impairments and may ultimately be the deciding factor in the patient’s recovery. There remains a tremendous need to develop therapeutics that interfere with secondary injury mechanisms to protect neural function. The development of appropriate models of TBI is one of the primary hurdles in this field. Expensive in vivo animal models focus on behavioral endpoints and have resulted in only moderate improvements in patient outcomes. Most of the current in vitro models of TBI rely on endpoints, such as cell morphology or biochemistry that do not necessarily correlate with cell function. While preservation of cell number and cell morphology are necessary for a positive outcome after TBI, the cells must also be able to send and receive signals as they did before the injury occurred in order for the central nervous system (CNS) to function properly. The objective of this thesis is to develop an in vitro model of TBI that can measure changes in the function of cells following injury. Using microelectrode arrays (MEAs) to study TBI enables one to record the cellular activity before and after injury and with treatment and allows for the measurement of changes in the patterns of electrical activity within the neuronal network, providing a clear picture of not only whether the cells have survived but also how they function. Our results show that we are able to detect changes in neuronal function that are not detected using simpler in vitro models. Additionally, we investigated the ability of memantine, an uncompetitive NMDA receptor inhibitor, to protect against secondary injury mechanisms. Using this tool to screen other potential neuroprotective compounds and identify those that can preserve cell function may translate to better success in animal models.Ph.

Colloidal metal-organic frameworks: synthesis and assembly
No full textThis thesis is an exercise in exploring the potential of metal-organic framework (MOF) as building blocks for developing anisotropic colloidal assembly system using morphology variation in general and distinct facet in particular. Our attempt to enrich the field is from two directions: synthetic development of MOF as colloidal-sized particles and mechanistic understanding of anisotropic particle assembly.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2018-08-01The student, Melinda Sindoro, accepted the attached license on 2016-05-05 at 16:00.The student, Melinda Sindoro, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2016-05-05 at 16:05.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2016-05-06 at 15:49.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #9602 on 2016-11-10 at 12:18:54Made available in DSpace on 2016-11-10T18:27:16Z (GMT).

Supporting a school team in planning and implementing AAC for a child with intellectual disability
No full textSupporting a child who cannot use speech and also has a language disorder to learn augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) is often challenging for families and school teams. I provided one school-family team with supports package that consisted of a structured team meeting and one-on-one coaching. I examined the effectiveness of this supports package in facilitating (a) team functioning, (b) instructional competence in AAC instruction, and (c) the child's communication. The supports package was effective in improving team functioning and building instructional competence, which led to positive changes in the child’s communication using AAC. However, the supports package was insufficient in supporting ongoing functioning and instructional competence that lead to the child’s independent, autonomous communication via AAC. This suggests that the supports package is a useful first step in this process but that additional ongoing supports are needed.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2018-08-01The student, Melinda Snodgrass, accepted the attached license on 2016-06-29 at 16:04.The student, Melinda Snodgrass, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2016-06-29 at 16:19.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2016-07-05 at 09:33.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #9726 on 2016-11-10 at 12:24:47Made available in DSpace on 2016-11-10T18:39:15Z (GMT).

Application of CEDAW in Domestic Violence Cases in Indonesia: Case Study of Domestic Violence against Venna Melinda
No full textDomestic violence is a form of human rights violation. Even though domestic violence has been prohibited, this kind of violence still often occurs in Indonesia. On Sunday, January 8, 2023, Venna Melinda experienced an incident of domestic violence committed by her husband, Ferry Irawan, resulting in a nose injury. This normative juridical research was conducted through a literature review using a legal framework and then evaluated using descriptive analytical methodology. Regarding the domestic violence faced by Venna Melinda, it should be noted that although CEDAW does not specifically address domestic violence, it requires member states to enact laws that address all types of discrimination against women, including domestic violence. Indonesia’s ratification of CEDAW shows Indonesia’s dedication to eliminating gender-based discrimination, which was transformed by the enactment of the PKDRT Law. The police have resolved the domestic violence case involving Venna Melinda so that the perpetrator received a criminal sentence from the judge. However, the Domestic Violence Law in Indonesia still has shortcomings in its regulation, so the handling of domestic violence situations is not optimal. Therefore, the author believes that the PKDRT Law has not effectively implemented CEDAW’s directives to eliminate gender-based discrimination against women. Based on the author’s point of view, the Domestic Violence Law needs to be revised, and its implementation should be improved as required by CEDAW
