Can a Cognitive–Perceptual–Physical Battery Predict Driving Competence for People With Mild Cognitive Impairments? A Pilot Study
No full textAbstract
Date Presented 3/30/2017
Our research showed that some people with mild cognitive impairments can still drive safely. In addition, visuocognitive assessments, seldom included in driving evaluation in the literature, may predict performance in on-road assessment. Realistic on-road assessment is needed.

Karl Shih Chang oral history interview and transcript
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of oral history interviews conducted by the Chao Center for Asian Studies at Rice University. This collection includes audio recordings and transcripts of interviews with Asian Americans native to or living in Houston.Karl Shih Chang was born in 1981 in Clear Lake, TX, in a first generation Taiwanese American family. His father was an engineer in NASA and his mother is a retired freelance writer and journalist. He has a sister who lives in LA.
Karl’s childhood in Clear Lake consisted of learning Chinese, reading a lot of science fiction and fantasy books, playing the piano and trombone. He went to his neighborhood schools up to high school, where he continued to play trombone and was a “band nerd”. After that, he attended Yale College studying Classical Civilization and Political Science (B.A., cum laude ), specializing in ancient/classical Greek language and literature. He was passionate about Greek philosophy, especially Thucydides— who he read over and over again. During his time at Yale, he was awarded the Winthrop Prize (competitive examination in ancient Greek) in 2003. Later upon graduation from Yale, he got into Harvard Law School, where he was awarded Williston Competition in Negotiation in 2004 and Heyman Fellowship in Federal Public Service in 2006. Same year in 2006, he passed his Bar Exam in DC. He also wrote for HLS Record during his time at Harvard.
In his last year in Harvard, he got an interview through the recommendation of his professor with the Department of Defense, where he has been working there ever since. During his career as a civil servant and as a General Counsel of International Affairs there, he was awarded the Office of the Secretary of Defence Medal - Exceptional Civilian Service in 2008, 2015 and 2017; as well as Secretary of Defense Medal Meritorious Civilian Service in 2020. One of his major works at DoD is the authorship of “The DoD Law of War Manual: Why, What and How,” Chapter II, for which he attended a number of
international conferences and presented.
In this interview, Karl spoke of his life stories, his family, and his relationship with his Asian American identity, with a modest and gentle demeanor despite the achievements he had in his life. He also shared his perspectives about voting decisions and racial justice. At the end of the interview, he made a time capsule for his future generations by sharing and reading an essay he wrote, titled “Life, Death and the Laws of War,” to reflect on his relationship with his passion in War, Law and Humanities, and dedicated to his late father, who passed away unexpectedly in 2015 due to an heart attack

No full textNovel Dialogue 3.1: On Being Unmoored: Chang-rae Lee Charts Fiction with Anne Anlin Cheng (SW)
No full textSeason three of Novel Dialogue launches in partnership with Public Books and introduces some fresh new voices into the mix. John and Aarthi welcome Chris Holmes, Emily Hyde, Tara Menon, and Sarah Wasserman into the ND pod as guest hosts. And have they brought a series of scintillating conversations with them! In our series premiere, Sarah sits down with acclaimed novelist Chang-rae Lee and Anne Anlin Cheng, renowned scholar of American literature and visual culture at Princeton. The conversation goes small and goes big: from the shortest short story to the totalizing effects of capitalism. Chang-rae is no stranger to such shifting scales: his novels sweep through large stretches of time and space, but their attention to detail and meticulous prose makes for an intimate reading experience. Chang-rae's latest novel, My Year Abroad, fuels a discussion about how we can form meaningful bonds in current conditions (hint: it's often around a table) and about the specters of other, better worlds that haunt Chang-rae's fictions. He discusses his relationship to his own work and the benefits of taking an "orbital view" on his writing. Chang-rae also offers a tantalizing glimpse into his current project, a semi-autobiographical novel about Korean-American immigrants in 1970s New York. In response to a brand new signature question for the podcast this season, Chang-rae reveals the talent he wishes he could suddenly have--one that Anne already possesses
