Must be treated with respect: evolving ethics and curation of Mesoamercian human remains
No full textThis paper explores the ethical protocols for the handling of human remains sourced in Central America and stored in academic collections within the United States. Although all such institutions profess a commitment that osteological remains “Must be treated with respect,” the definition of what constitutes “respect” is often subjective. My research and data collected will draw upon the international mandates that govern the exportation, storage, study, and conservation of human remains with attention to three aspects that contribute to the legal framework in which human remains fall: 1) The laws and where they originate; 2) The organizations that maintain these laws; and 3) The extent by which these laws are applied and enforced. I will compare varying internal policies directed towards the conservation and handling of human remains in four academic institutions. As these policies and practices are necessarily institution-specific, they will be compared to demonstrate areas of significant alignment and areas of contrast. The ultimate goal is to establish how following ethical guidelines can become a sustainable feature in archaeological practice by crafting a framework in which ethical principles are designed in such a way that they can have a positive impact on the quality of scientific data. This position is supported by a demonstration of how standardization in ethical issues has consequences for the standardization in the scientific method and long-term conservation of remains. Other improvements discussed include the possibility for enhanced international cultural diplomacy to impact the overall discipline of archaeology in the public perception of its role as a steward of important cultural heritage.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Randi Renee Ragsdal

Interplay between European regulation and national policies in biodiversity conflict reconciliation
No full textSuccessful public conservation policies at various governmental levels have increased some populations of protected species to the extent that they are causing damage to human activities. As a reaction public authorities are developing biodiversity reconciliation policies. Finland and Germany have both created reconciliation policies including a package of measures like management of population, support of technical measures and compensation for damage. All these measures are affected by European policy and law, though no special reconciliation policy has been adopted at European level. This article explores the options European legislation offers and the restrictions it imposes on member states. Based on experiences with German and Finnish biodiversity reconciliation policies, the interrelationship between European and national regulation is elaborated, leading to suggestions for better coordination of reconciliation policies between different governmental levels. --Biodiversity conflict reconciliation,European regulation,fisheries and aquaculture,local damage management,nature conservation,policy instruments
The perks of being bold: Overconfidence predicts persistence
No full textOverconfidence is a widely researched bias that most people exhibit across a broad range of domains. Most of the past research has focused on the negative, dangerous consequences of overconfidence. In the present studies, following recent work that has identified some advantages of overconfidence, we explored persistence as an additional advantage. In the present research, overconfidence is operationalized as the degree to which self-assessed performance exceeds actual performance. Performance on each task was incentivized. We examined overconfidence and persistence in three different domains: logical reasoning, creative thinking, and effort expenditure. Across two studies (Ns = 304 and 306), evidence showed that overconfidence in one’s performance predicted a greater willingness to invest time and effort in working on all three tasks. Moreover, we also explored several personality predictors of overconfidence. The results showed that narcissism, risk seeking, and pride predicted higher levels of overconfidence, though some variation existed across tasks. These results suggest that overconfidence is associated with positive gains like persistence, which is in turn associated with success and aids the acquisition of valuable resources.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2020-08-01The student, Randi Vogt, accepted the attached license on 2018-07-06 at 10:23.The student, Randi Vogt, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-07-06 at 10:53.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-07-06 at 11:05.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12754 on 2018-09-27 at 11:36:17Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-27T16:47:25Z (GMT).

Improving Traumatic Brain Injury Outcomes: Early Identification and Management of Paroxysmal Sympathetic Hyperactivity
No full textAbstract
Background: Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) can occur in patients with acutely acquired brain injury and is associated with mortality, poor clinical outcomes, prolonged hospitalizations, physical disability, and increased healthcare costs. The most common cause of PSH syndrome is traumatic brain injury (TBI). Symptoms consist of hyperthermia, diaphoresis, arterial hypertension, tachycardia, tachypnea, and extremity motor dystonic posturing, often in response to evoked stimuli and occurs in 8% to 33% of TBI patients. Critical care nurses are at the forefront of providing direct patient care to TBI patients and are often the first to identify PSH.
Purpose: The objective of this quality improvement project (QI) was to comprehensively evaluate the literature and provide evidence-based information regarding PSH to nurses, advanced practice providers, residents, and trauma/surgical critical care attendings who deliver care to TBI patients in a surgical trauma intensive care unit (ICU).
Methods: An integrative literature review was performed, PowerPoint was created to conduct seminars, and pre-and post-test analyses were obtained to evaluate knowledge attainment of the management of PSH. The overall goal of the educational seminars was to increase scores by \u3e20% for adequate knowledge attainment, which was obtained. Limitations: high acuity patients, staffing schedules, seminar timing, and lack of perceived educational need by providers.
Conclusion: This QI project identified a gap in clinical knowledge and practice surrounding PSH in TBIs. Continuous education on PSH is imperative to promote early identification and timely management for prevention of secondary brain injury and worsening healthcare outcomes in this complex patient population.
