Specimens up to 39 mm long, 0.15–0.35 mm wide. Body inflated, dorsally flattened in prebranchial region, thereafter round in cross section. Tan color. Prostomium triangular, longer than wide; terminal sensory organ present; median antenna absent; ciliated peristomial nuchal slits. Prebranchial segments slightly inflated (Fig. 3A), with two longitudinal dorsal grooves. Branchiae begin on chaetigers 7–8, 13–20 pairs, conical; cilia present on lateral branchiae margins, continue as transverse bands across dorsum (Fig. 3B). Notopodial post-chaetal lobes short, conical in pre-branchial chaetigers, digitate in branchial region, shorter post-branchial. Notopodial sensory pores present along entire body (Fig. 3C), immediately below notochaetae, may have projecting filament. Neuropodial post-chaetal lobes absent. Notopodia with capillary chaetae only. Neuropodia with capillary chaetae and up to 13 concave, fringed acicular spines in post-branchial segments. Neuropodial spines thinner, straighter (superior) and thicker, more recurved (inferior), double rows in far posterior chaetigers (Figs 3E, 7H). Abdominal segments with deep, transverse dorsal intersegmental furrows. Pygidium unknown. Methyl green stain. Branchial region with ventral bands, and distinct notopodial post-branchial spots (Fig. 7C). Remarks. SEM images of Levinsenia sp B SCAMIT 2007 § confirmed that it is the same as L. kirbyorum, described from the Andaman Sea, as noted in the voucher sheet. The unusual dorsal longitudinal furrows on the California material, which are very clearly visible with SEM (Fig. 3A), were not described for L. kirbyorum are confirmed The paratype of L. kirbyorum (LACM-AHF 2091) was reviewed and dorsal furrows were confirmed. The original description of L. kirbyorum Lovell 2002 is emended to include these furrows. The California material examined also has the unique double-rowed neurochaetal fascicle arrangement described for L. kirbyorum. Identical methyl green staining spots are present in post-branchial notopodial areas in both Andaman Sea and California specimens. This is a range extension from the Andaman Sea into Southern California. For information on diagnostic character differences, see the dichotomous key below and table of character distributions (Table 2). The specific epithet is emended to acknowledge that the species was named in honor of three persons; Jacqueline Kirby Lovell, Andrew Kirby Lovell, and Robin Kirby Lovell. The name L. kirbyae is emended to Levinsenia kirbyorum. Type locality. Andaman Sea. Distribution. Andaman Sea, Indian Ocean; Southern California, 42–60 m depth.Published as part of Lovell, Lawrence L. & Fitzhugh, Kirk, 2020, Taking a closer look: an SEM review of Levinsenia species (Polychaeta: Paraonidae) reported from California, pp. 257-275 in Zootaxa 4751 (2) on pages 262-264, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4751.2.3, http://zenodo.org/record/371307

The discrepancy between actual and unreported incidents of violence in a learning disability nursing service
No full textThis article is not available through ChesterRep. It can be accessed at https://www.mhldrp.org.uk/article/id/318/This study reports on research carried out within the Learning Disability Division of a major Mental Health NHS Trust in the North of England, and relates to the discrepancy between the actual number of incidents of violence and aggression and those reported. The literature review demonstrated that violence is a particular issue for nurses, particularly those working in the areas of mental health and learning disability where studies have indicated that as many as one in five may be affected. A questionnaire was distributed to all learning disability nurses currently employed in the Trust, a total of 411, with a response rate in excess of 40%. The study revealed that a discrepancy does exist between actual and reported incidents of violence within the Trust. It confirmed previous claims that the predominant difficulty is cultural, violence being regarded as part of the job and non-reporting primarily revolving around perceptions of incidents being considered 'minor', not worth the time to complete the paperwork. The paper concludes that more work is needed to achieve a united, consistent approach across the NHS, in order that a high quality, accessible service for people with learning disabilities and complex needs can be delivered without violence being considered an acceptable part of the job
INEQUALITY WITHIN AND AMONG NATIONS
No full textThis paper looks at both within country and among country inequality. In the spirit of Dalton[1920] and Atkinson[1970] this paper reports estimates of the welfare loss arising from inequality. The paper also explores the implications of Duesenberry style interdependent utility functions when a Utilitariansocial welfare function is employed and evaluates the appropriateness of the Gini coefficient and the coefficient of variation as possible measures of “depression” or “relative deprivation.” The paper reports a variety of measures of inequality for the 82 countries for which comparable data are available from the 1996 World Development Report. In 18% of the pair-wise comparisons of inequality in different countries the situation is ambiguous in the sense that neither country Lorenz dominates the other. Shorrocks[1982] Generalized Lorenz curves leave ambiguous 16% of paired welfare comparisons. By a wide variety of alternative measures, inequality among nations is much greater than inequality within countries. The data generated a surprising empirical result: for any utility function satisfying Dalton’s Principle of Transfers, the loss of welfare arising from within country inequality is approximately 40% of the loss caused by inequality among nations.Inequality, Income Distribution, Gini Coefficient, Relative Deprivation, Lorenz Dominance, Generalized Lorenz Curve, Veil of Ignorance, Equally Distributed Equivalent Income, Interdependent utilities, Tax price of public goods
Exploration and Exploitation in an Artificial Experimenter
No full textAn artificial experimenter is a computational implementation of the decision making processes a laboratory experimenter will make. Artificial experimenter's analyse the available data, propose hypotheses to represent the behaviours investigated and design experiments to evaluate or improve those hypotheses. In doing so they perform active discovery. A key problem faced is deciding when to perform experiments that exploit the information held within the current hypotheses to evaluate them and when to perform experiments that explore the parameter space to discover features of the behaviour being investigated not yet identified. As resources in physical experimentation are extremely limited, addressing this trade-off is critical to obtaining a representative model of the system under investigation. To achieve this, a Bayesian notion of surprise has been used to effectively manage the transition between exploration and exploitation in simulated and physical experimental trials
