Data set for the Binocular contributions to motion detection and motion discrimination during locomotion Project
No full textThis dataset contains data collected during psychophysical studies of visual motion perception during simulated self-motion. The dataset enables performance extraction of motion detection and discrimination for analysis of binocular contributions to the flow parsing process. Staircase methods were used for efficient estimation on thresholds. Data were collected and pre-processed with Psychopy package in Python programming language
Daily alcohol consumption among UK homeless people during COVID-19: a latent class and cross-sectional study
No full textBackground: alcohol consumption and related issues among the homeless population are key public health concerns. The COVID-19 pandemic may have altered drinking patterns among homeless people. We aimed to examine the drinking patterns of homeless people and their association with housing status.Methods: 1129 participants (82·5% female) from the COVID-19 Homeless Rapid Integrated Screening Protocol (CHRISP) study reported their drinking behaviours (i.e, daily drinking, drinking after waking up, alcohol-related injury, and getting help to stop drinking) and their past housing status (e.g, rough sleeping, with family/friends, and prison). Latent class analysis (LCA) was used to assess the daily drinking patterns and multinomial logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between housing status and daily drinking patterns.Findings: the prevalence of daily drinking was 14·3%. There were significant gender differences in alcohol-related injury and getting help to reduce/stop drinking (both p<0·05). The LCA identified an optimal three-class model: a high daily consumption group (Class 1, 7·6%), a low daily consumption group with alcohol-related injury (Class 2, 7·1%), and a low daily consumption group without negative consequences (Class 3, 85·3%). Using class 3 as the baseline, people who have lived in prison, as opposed to family/friends (reference group), were 8·6 times more likely to be classified into the high daily consumption group (Class 1). No significant drinking pattern differences were found between the reference group and other housing statuses.Interpretation: the prevalence of daily drinking among the UK homeless population during COVID-19 has been assessed for the first time. The findings suggest that different housing statuses are associated with different drinking patterns, and history of prison residence may reflect broader vulnerabilities or disadvantages. Authorities should enhance support for individuals leaving prison, including referrals and follow-up to alcohol and drug rehabilitation services.Funding: no funding was received in this study

Pattern Research Project: An Investigation of The Pattern And Printing Process - Acanthus

Hongyi Zhu - Acanthus
The Pattern Research Project involves research and analysis of contemporary patterns found in the textiles and wallcoverings of the built interior environment. Patterns use motif, repetition, color, geometry, craft, technology, and space to communicate place, time, and concept. Through this research and analysis, built environments - their designers, occupants, construction, and context - can be better understood.
Hongyi Zhu, VCU Interior Design BFA 2020, selected the Acanthus pattern for the 2017 Pattern Research Project. The text below is excerpted from the student’s work:
“Acanthus is a type of plant that [is] widespread in mediterranean region. There leaves were used as ornamentation for thousands of years. The most well-known example should be the corinthian order columns of Greek temples. Later, it was inherited by the Roman Empire and its successor, the Byzantine empire. The foliages symbolize immortality, healing and rebirth; it was commonly used as a decoration for Cathedral architectures. However, it had never became a significant religious symbol in Christianity. The pattern remained as a decorative element. The pattern was developed and transformed into numerous different forms through the age..”https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/prp/1003/thumbnail.jp
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
