Assessing the role of the SMC-5/6 complex in meiotic double strand DNA break repair
Clark, Cordell
Meiosis
Double strand DNA breaks
DNA
Structural maintenance of chromosomes
Meiosis is the specialized cell division used to form haploid gametes. During meiosis, endogenous double strand DNA breaks (DSBs) are induced. A subset of these DSBs must be repaired as crossovers with the homologous chromosome to ensure proper chromosome segregation. Although repair is required for proper chromosome segregation, use of the homologs as a repair template for DSB repair is restricted to a specific time window during meiotic prophase I. DSBs incurred outside of this window must be repaired to ensure genomic integrity. Multiple lines of evidence have suggested that these homolog-independent repair events utilize the sister chromatid as a template in repairing DSBs. Utilizing Caenorhabidits elegans, the Libuda lab has developed a genetic assay for intersister repair, directly demonstrating the occurrence of intersister repair events during meiosis; however, the molecular mechanism of intersister repair remains unknown. Previous studies have implicated multiple proteins in promoting homolog-independent DNA repair during meiosis, including the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) 5/6 complex. Utilizing this assay, I will determine whether the SMC-5/6 complex is required for intersister repair during meiosis. Specifically, I will place an smc-5 null mutation in the intersister repair assay and examine the frequency of intersister repair events at a specific locus in the genome. If SMC-5 is required for intersister repair, I expect to observe a lowered frequency or elimination of intersister repair events compared to wild type controls. Determining the precise role of smc-5 and other candidate genes in DSB repair will provide insight into the mechanisms underlying DNA repair decisions during meiosis.

Monetary Policy, Endogenous Inattention, and the Volatility Trade-off
Branch, William A.
Carlson, John
Evans, George W., 1949-
McGough, Bruce
Expectations
Optimal monetary policy
Bounded rationality
Economic stabilization
Adaptive learning
This paper addresses the output-price volatility puzzle by studying the interaction of optimal monetary policy and agents' beliefs. We assume that agents choose their information acquisition rate by minimizing a loss function that depends on expected forecast errors and information costs. Endogenous inattention is a Nash equilibrium in the information processing rate. Although a decline of policy activism directly increases output volatility, it indirectly anchors expectations, which decreases output volatility. If the indirect effect dominates then the usual trade-off between output and price volatility breaks down. This provides a potential explanation for the "Great Moderation" that began in the 1980's.

The Impact of Unethical Leader-Requests on Employees' Anger, Anxiety, and Family Lives
Qiu, Feng
Wagner, David
Emotions
Unethical Leadership
Work-family
This dissertation aims to explore the potential non-work consequences of unethical leader-requests. Specifically, it examines how unethical leader-requests can trigger anxiety and anger in employees, which in turn harmfully influence employees’ insomnia, emotional exhaustion at home, and interactions with family members. In addition, this dissertation examines whether employees’ moral identity and responsibility displacement propensity will serve as two moderators that affect the degree to which they emotionally and behaviorally respond to unethical leader-requests. A three-wave field survey, a laboratory experiment, and an experience sampling method study were conducted to collectively improve the internal and external validity of the findings. Overall, the findings suggest that employees feel anxious and angry when they are requested by their leaders to engage in unethical behavior and that the negative emotions can spill over to employees’ family domain to harmfully impact their family lives. Implications and future directions will be discussed.

Surfzone hydrodynamics alter phytoplankton subsidies affecting reproductive output of Mytilus californianus and Balanus glandula
Salant, Carlissa
Shanks, Alan
Marine
The surf zone connects the ocean to the shore and acts as a semipermeable barrier through which food and larval resources must pass if they are to sustain intertidal populations. Where surf zones were narrow, more reflective, surfzone phytoplankton concentrations were lower than shores where surf zones were wide, more dissipative. Variations in surfzone hydrodynamics alter food subsidies, which in turn affects the reproductive output and growth of the ecologically important filter-feeders, the barnacle Balanus glandula and mussel Mytilus californianus. Spatial patterns of phytoplankton subsidies driven by surfzone hydrodynamics can vary dramatically over even small distances. These subsidies then drive growth and reproductive output of intertidal filter feeders.

Destination: Tigard Transit-Oriented Development and Urban Design Strategies
Hirzel, Hannah
Larco, Nico
Light rail transit
Local transit accessibility
Pedestrian areas
Tigard, a suburb of Portland, Oregon, is interested in a new urban design vision as a new MAX light rail line is proposed to extend through the city. TriMet and the city of Tigard partnered with a University of Oregon graduate architecture seminar and design studio to envision a new plan and identity for the city. The city of Tigard sees this new transit line as an opportunity on many levels. Tigard aims to be the “most walkable city in the Pacific Northwest,” which could include a shift from its current identity as a transit line transfer point into a destination for visitors and commuters. With a new light rail line making travel to downtown Portland and surrounding
suburbs easier, the city of Tigard sees opportunity for growth and development, and the potential to redefine some of its city goals.
Student teams of three to four members tackled these issues and presented proposals for a new town center in Tigard. Though each team proposed unique schemes, there are similar issues and goals. Some key focus areas include:
• Creating a public “place” and identity where the MAX light rail stops in Tigard
• Creating a connection to the existing town
• Celebrating Fanno Creek, a natural area and trail system located west of downtown
• Re-designing Hall Boulevard to become safer and more accessible for pedestrians
• Redefining the city grid and creating more manageable block sizes
The following proposals have various approaches to urban design and the future vision for the city of Tigard, but all make an effort toward sustainable urban design. Through effective street design, stormwater management, pedestrian-focused public spaces, mixed-use development strategies, and more, these proposals aim to develop Tigard into a place where people want to live, develop, and enjoy public spaces.

Menstrual Cycle and Performance Feedback Alter Gender Differences in Competitive Choices
Wozniak, David
Harbaugh, William
Mayr, Ulrich, 1962-
Menstrual cycle
Competition (Psychology) -- Sex differences
Economic experiments have shown that in mixed gender groups women are more reluctant than men
to choose tournaments when given the choice between piece rate and winner-take-all tournament
style compensation. These gender difference experiments have all relied on a framework where
subjects were not informed of their abilities relative to potential competitors. We replicate these
findings with math and word tasks, and then show that feedback about relative performance
moves high ability females towards more competitive compensation schemes, moves low ability
men towards less competitive schemes such as piece rate and group pay, and removes the average
gender difference in compensation choices. We also examine between and within-subjects differences
in choices for females across the menstrual cycle. We find women’s relative reluctance to choose
tournaments comes mostly from women in the low hormone phase of their menstrual cycle. Women
in the high hormone phase are substantially more willing to compete than women in the low phase,
though still somewhat less willing to compete than men. There are no significant differences between
the choices of any of these groups after they receive relative performance feedback.

Public Participation in Community and Regional Planning
Peterson, Nicole
Public participation in community and regional planning is both imperative and problematic. Recent statistics reveal that the percentage of public participation in US planning is diminutive, as only 16% of Americans say they have been engaged in planning efforts (Farmer, Aug-Sept 2012) The American Planning Association conducted a survey in March 2012 that was meant to highlight the community priorities of American citizens and planners in addressing the public sentiments in current planning efforts.

Ex-convicts -- Employment
The purpose of this dissertation study was to adapt, deliver, and experimentally test the effectiveness of a research-based, employment-focused group counseling intervention (OPTIONS) that was designed to improve male inmates' ability to secure employment upon release from prison. The intervention curriculum and study were modeled after similar interventions with battered (Chronister & McWhirter, 2006) and incarcerated women (Chartrand & Rose, 1996). The OPTIONS program was grounded in Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994, 2000) and comprised of all critical intervention components identified as contributing to positive career intervention outcomes (Brown & Krane, 2000). In addition, the OPTIONS intervention consisted of 5 weekly group sessions, which lasted 120 minutes, and each group was comprised of 6-7 male inmates. The intervention focused on various aspects of the job preparation process such as identifying necessary skills, obtaining information about different types of jobs, practicing for job interviews, and learning how to utilize social support. Study participants included 77 (n = 38 treatment, n = 39 control) adult male inmates housed at the Oregon Department of Corrections medium security release facility, the Oregon State Correctional Institute (OSCI) in Salem, OR. This study utilized a randomized block design, with between subjects and within subjects measurements at pretest, posttest, and one month follow-up. Participants were blocked based upon age and release date, and then randomly assigned to a wait-list treatment as usual control group or the OPTIONS treatment intervention group. Outcomes measured were job search self-efficacy (Career Search Self-Efficacy Scale, Solberg, Good, & Nord, 1994), perceived problem solving ability (Problem Solving Inventory, Heppner, 1988), and hopefulness (Hope Scale, Snyder et al., 1991). Data were analyzed using 2 (experimental group) x 2 (time) analyses of variance (ANOVAs). Results indicated that participants in the OPTIONS treatment intervention had higher career-search self-efficacy, problem solving, and hopefulness scores at posttest and follow-up than participants in the treatment as usual control group. This dissertation study was the first time a manualized, theory based employment preparation treatment intervention was adapted specifically for inmates preparing to release back to the community.

The Stories Behind the Stories: A Qualitative Inquiry Regarding the Experiences of Journalists Who Covered the Newtown Shooting
Deitz, Charles
Bivins, Thomas
The news coverage of the Newtown, Connecticut shooting brought to the fore some of the profession's most glaring deficits. On one hand, many of the published reports in the first days were full of speculation and, in some cases, falsities. On the other hand, the grieving community was invaded by a horde of reporters looking for exclusive content. The purpose of this qualitative study is to investigate the Newtown reportage through the experiences of reporters who were assigned to the event, and to discover how to improve the process and whether an ethic-of-care-based approach could be implemented. Through 6 semi-structured interviews, analyzed first through a grounded-theory mechanism and second through an ethic-of-care framework, this study proposes new practices for the handling of trauma coverage, which include maximizing resources and minimizing community invasion going forward. These recommendations point toward a rich area of curriculum development at the academic and professional levels.

Marine Mammals Before Extirpation: Using Archaeology To Understand Native American Use Of Sea Otters And Whales in Oregon Prior to European Contact

sea otters
Tribal ancestors living on the Oregon coast prior to European contact were skilled fisher-hunter-gatherers residing in a rich environment, home to diverse marine mammals. Euro-Americans over-exploited these marine mammals and drove some species to near extinction. Some marine mammal populations rebounded while others, such as the locally extinct Oregon sea otter, never recovered. Threats from hunting are past, but marine mammals on the Northwest Coast today face new challenges, and sea otters and cetaceans are foci of conservation efforts. Despite the interest these taxa enjoy in the present, little systematic study of their use by and relationship with precontact peoples in Oregon has occurred, and this dissertation addresses these gaps in knowledge.To address ancestral tribal use of sea otters and cetaceans I researched previously excavated faunal assemblages. The Par-Tee (35CLT20) and Palmrose (35CLT47) sites located in Seaside, on the northern Oregon coast, were home to the Clatsop and Tillamook at contact. Par-Tee and Palmrose were occupied at different times in the Late Holocene (~1850-1150 cal BP and ~2750-1500 cal BP, respectively). The two sites were excavated in the 1960s-1970s and contained an enormous quantity of well-preserved faunal remains. The Tahkenitch Landing (35DO130) site is located on the central Oregon coast, north of Reedsport, and was home to the Lower Umpqua Indians at contact. Tahkenitch Landing was occupied from the early to mid-Holocene (approximately 5000-3000 BP) and contained a large quantity of whale bones which were previously analyzed, but not identified to species level.
I conducted zooarchaeological analysis of the sea otters from Par-Tee and Palmrose (NISP=2992) and cetaceans from Palmrose (N=1174) and Tahkenitch Landing (N=33). With my co-authors, I analyzed ancient DNA from 20 Seaside sea otter specimens and performed Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry (ZooMS) and ancient DNA identifications of 158 cetacean specimens. These analyses provided new insight regarding precontact ancestral tribal use of sea otters and cetaceans and the historical ecologies of the animals. This dissertation provides a socio-ecological dataset with implications for potential reintroductions of sea otters and the conservation of cetaceans in Oregon today.
This dissertation includes previously published and unpublished co-authored material.

Behavioral Biases in General Equilibrium: Implications for Wealth Inequality and Human Capital Formation
Nighswander, Tristan
Chakraborty, Shankha
Behavioral economics
Human capital
Inequality
Macroeconomics
My research focuses on the integration of behavioral economics into well understood general equilibrium macroeconomic models populated by overlapping generations of heterogeneous agents. Specifically, I analyze the implications of populating model economies with present-biased agents who are finitely lived, subject to idiosyncratic labor income shocks, and heterogeneous in both exponential and present-biased discount factors. My primary goal is characterizing the contribution of behavioral biases towards resolving several issues in the literature pertaining to human capital investment and aggregate wealth inequality. Further, the inclusion of present bias in carefully calibrated model economies allows me to rationalize empirical differences in consumption, wealth, and education that arise between observationally similar households that models of homogeneous, exponential discounters are unable to match.

Examination of Psychometric Properties of a Translated Social-Emotional Screening Test: The Taiwanese Version of Ages and Stages Questionnaires: Social-Emotional

Assessment
Screening
Social-emotioal problems
Investigating the psychometric properties of a screening instrument for young children is necessary to ascertain its quality and accuracy. In light of the important role culture plays on human beliefs and parenting styles, a newly translated and adapted test needs to be studied. Evaluating outcomes on a translated version of a test may reveal significant information related to cultural specifications as well as the common nature of child development.
The current study examined psychometric properties of the 48-month interval of the Ages and Stages Questionnaires: Social-Emotional Second Edition (ASQ:SE-2) and its Traditional Chinese version (ASQ:SE-TC), using item response theory (IRT). Participants in the U.S. included 3,005 young children/parents dyads; 1,455 dyads were collected to represent a Taiwanese sample.
A two-dimensional Rasch Partial Credit Model (2D-RPCM), which was determined to present a better fit than a unidimensional Rasch Partial Credit Model, was used to examine the item fit, item difficulty, reliability, and item information curves to evaluate the psychometric properties on the ASQ:SE and ASQ:SE-TC. Further, differential item functioning was conducted to examine whether items were functioning differently in the two population groups. Lastly, the differences between the distributions of children’s latent traits on the continuum of social and emotional competencies for the U.S. and Taiwanese samples were investigated.
Based on findings, the adequacy of psychometric properties is discussed, providing insight into the quality of particular items. Identified differences between the two populations are explored by reviewing literature regarding cultural comparisons of childrearing practices, parenting styles, and cultural beliefs. Future directions for research include examining the cultural equivalence between translated and original versions of other ASQ:SE-2 intervals.

Differences Amongst Three Types of Coursetakers in Career and Technical Education for Attendance and Math Achievement in High School
Childs, Regine
Hollenbeck, Keith
The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in attendance and academic achievement amongst three groups of career and technical education (CTE) students. CTE participants were divided into three groups based on levels of CTE participation and CTE occupational focus. The three groups were (a) coursetakers, (b) explorers, and (c) concentrators. The CTE students were enrolled during school years 2010–2011 to 2013–2014 and took the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (OAKS) math test in their junior year. The analysis revealed no significant differences amongst the three groups, p = .437. The mean attendance for 4 years was nearly 96% for explorers and just over 94% for concentrators and coursetakers. No significant differences were found amongst CTE groups for overall GPA, p = .675, and for CTE GPA, p < .086. However, differences between overall GPA and CTE GPA were significant, p < .000, favoring CTE GPA. Nonsignificant differences on the OAKS math test, p = .95, were found for the three groups. This study also revealed that students susceptible to chronic absenteeism were heavily represented amongst the study participants; thus, the results may indicate that CTE encouraged positive peer relationships, enabling a higher attendance rate and allowing the cohort to achieve slightly better GPA and OAKS math test scores than non-CTE students at this school. In particular, students who were identified as special education, minority, or economically disadvantaged did as well or better in attendance and academic achievement than did their other CTE counterparts.

Culture and Economic Growth
Thompson, Jonathan
Chakraborty, Shankha
The most fundamental question in economics is what causes some countries to prosper. An emerging literature has focused on the role of culture in determining growth. I interpret culture as "the collective programming of the mind which distinguishes the members of one group or category of people from those of another," following Hofstede. I focus on the role of culture in determining economic decision making and cooperation, with an emphasis on how cross-cultural differences in how strangers are viewed may influence economic activity by narrowing the scope of interaction.
I use modern econometric techniques and neoclassical economic models to formalize the role of culture in economic decision making and test the power of culture to explain cross-country differences in long run growth paths. Throughout my research I assume that agents behave rationally but that culture influences the expectations or beliefs they have about different activities.
Subject to the common elements above, each chapter answers a slightly different question. Chapter II focuses on how colonial history may influence decisions over risk-taking in certain countries, leading to a dearth of entrepreneurial activity. Chapter III focuses on how interactions across and between cultural groups may explain the decision of minority immigrant groups to assimilate or segregate over time and how public policy may influence this decision making. Chapter IV looks at the effect of culture through the media of trust and government. Using an instrumental variables strategy, I ask which is more important to economic development, contract quality or interpersonal trust, and find strong evidence that interpersonal trust is more important.

Redevelopment Opportunities: Reshaping Urban Landscapes
Enriori Garcia, Nicolas
Coffee shops -- Oregon -- Eugene
Parking lots -- Oregon -- Eugene
Coffee shops
Eugene (Or.)
Parking
All around Eugene there is parking lot structures that remain partially unoccupied for the vast majority of time. These parking lots have a major influence on the shape of a city and are in part responsible for the downfalls associated with car usage â environmental degradation, traffic congestion, traffic accidents, physical fitness, health, etc.
In the last twenty years, some lots have incorporated drive-thru coffee stores occupying some parking spots near the ingress/egress zone. The emergence of these stores has not been widely covered and there is scarce literature about this phenomenon. In the city of Eugene there are nearly twenty stores, with the most recent one opened in May, 2008.
This study examines the emergence of drive-thru coffees stores in Eugene and poses several questions to be answered: are drive-thru coffee stores evidence of an exaggerated off-street parking supply? Are these stores pioneers into a redevelopment process of converting parking lots into different structures with higher end uses? This paper tries to find answers for these questions from the perspectives of store managers, lot owners and city officials.

International Railway Signals
Clearman, Brian
Railway signals
This monograph is the second edition of International
Railway Signals. While it bears a substantial resemblance to
the original study (1991) there are substantial changes. Terminology is a significant problem with railway
safety devices. Signals, sign and markings were included in
that first edition but a wide range of T-M forms were omitted
including acoustical, radio aids and level/grade crossings. This
is true both of terms and content. The summary of terms in
this study contrasts with those of the railway database
volume (2009): signals, signals, markers. That newer work
includes a variety of terms not listed in the title and other
apparatus. The diversity of railway devices is compounded
by the lack of a more precise general term of railway signals
that can encompass other forms.
The earlier preface provided a sharp distinction
between signals and signalling (the former is primary; the
latter is peripheral). The latter term refers to the control and
operation of signals and accompanying safety appliances and
procedures (e.g., systems, block systems, interlockings, CTC,
electronic configurations). While signalling is not a core issue
in this study of apparatus devices producing messages and
meanings it is an integral element of this study.
The older edition often refers to messages but not the
meaning. While message might encompass the meaning it is
more accurate to speak of the physical appearance of the
messages, and the semiotic meaning that becomes attached to
the physical dimenson.

Increasing stream flows to sustain salmon in the Northwest: an economic and policy assessment
Jaeger, William K.
Mikesell, Raymond
According to biologists, increasing streamflows in the Pacific Northwest is essential to restore and maintain the populations of salmon and other native fishes. Since agriculture is the principal source of surface water diversions, accounting for about 80 percent of the total for the region, any efforts to augment streamflow will necessarily concentrate on reducing irrigation diversions. The likely costs of any actions to protect salmon are a central public concern and an important policy consideration, and in this particular case, these costs will depend
directly on the impact that reducing irrigation diversions will have on farm enterprises in the region. This analysis appraises these costs and finds that they are likely to be modest if an efficient approach is taken to increasing streamflows. These estimates are based on evidence from market transactions for individual water rights, sales of irrigated farm land, and from a number of economic studies and cost estimation techniques. Our calculations indicate that the cost of water ranges from $1 to $25 per acrefoot, which, for a broadly based regional program to restore and maintain healthy fish populations, translates into annual costs of between 0.5 and 4.0 percent of the net farm income from all irrigated farms in the region, or between $1 and $10 per person in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. The analysis cautions, however, that some actions aimed at restoring salmon may
be excessively costly, largely ineffective, or both—for example if high value irrigation water is returned to the wrong streams at the wrong times. In addition, it should not be assumed that by simply introducing water markets among farmers, or by promoting adoption of improved irrigation technologies, that streamflows will increase or that salmon will benefit from these changes. For these or other measures to contribute to the restoration of salmon stocks, and to do so in a costeffective way, will require creative institutional arrangements and attention to
biological and economic information.

Effects of off-axis melt supply at fast-spreading mid-ocean ridges: A study of the 9-10n region of the East Pacific Rise

Results from a recent mid-ocean ridge tomography study along the fast-spreading, northern East Pacific Rise (EPR) reveal that the axis of mantle upwelling beneath the ridge is skewed with respect to the spreading axis, giving rise to regions of both rise-centered and off-axis mantle melt accumulation. Here, we investigate the effects of off-axis melt accumulation on the architecture of overlying crust as well as off-axis melt delivery on crustal construction along the ridge axis. We first present evidence for off-axis magmatism 20 km from the spreading center in 300-ka-old crust overlying a region of off-axis melt supply. Seismic data reveal an intrusive complex ∼2 km beneath the seafloor that is limited in lateral extent (<5 km) and comprises a melt lens underlain by low-velocity, high-attenuation crust, which provides the necessary conditions to drive off-axis volcanic and hydrothermal activity. We next present results from thermodynamic modeling that show systematic, along-axis variations in the depth of crystallization and degree of differentiation of magma produce crustal density variations of ∼0.1 g/cm 3 . These density anomalies are on the order inferred from a recent study that shows increasing axial depth along the northern EPR correlates with an increase in crustal density and offset of mantle upwelling with respect to the ridge axis. Our results, along with geophysical and geochemical data from the 9°-10°N region of the EPR, suggest that along-axis deeps correspond with magmatic systems that have significant near-Moho (i.e., crust-mantle transition) crystallization, which we attribute to off-axis delivery of mantle melt. As this investigation is motivated by the EPR tomography results, we conclude with a numerical study that examines the travel time sensitivity of Pn , a sub-crustal head wave commonly used in local travel time tomography, to crustal and mantle heterogeneity. Our results indicate that Pn travel times and Fresnel zones are insensitive to normal sub-axial crustal thickness anomalies, mantle velocity gradients and crust-mantle velocity contrast variations and that mantle low-velocity zones must be at least 3 km thick to produce significant, near-constant Pn delay times. Our data support the validity and interpretation of the EPR tomography results.

Postmodernism (Literature) -- History and criticism
This dissertation investigates the cultural importance of the "monstrous Other" in postmodern literature, including novels from Sweden, Finland, and the United States. While the theoretical concept of "the Other" is in wide circulation in the humanities and social sciences, the concept has only recently been modified with the adjective "monstrous" to highlight a special case of the Other that plays an important role in the formation of human subjectivity. In order to better understand the representational legacy of the monstrous Other, I explore some of the principal venues in which it has appeared in western literature, philosophy, folklore, and politics. Using a Foucauldian archaeological approach in my literature survey allows me to trace the tradition of the monstrous Other in such sources as medieval bestiaries, the wild man motif in folklore and popular culture, and the medicalization of intersexual embodiment. In all cases, the monstrous Other is a complex phenomenon with broad implications for the politics of subjectivity and the future of social and political justice. Moreover, the monstrous Other poses significant challenges for the ongoing tenability of normative notions of the human, including such primary human traits as sexuality and a gendered, "natural" embodiment. Given the complexities of the monstrous Other and the ways in which it both upholds and intervenes in normative human identities, no single theoretical approach is adequate to the task of examining its functioning. Instead, the project calls for an approach that blends the methodologies of (post)psychoanalytic and queer theory while retaining a critical awareness of both the representational nature of subjectivity and its material effects. By employing both strains of theory, I am able to "read" the monstrous Other as both a necessary condition of subjectivity and a model of intersubjectivity that could provide an alternative to the positivism and binarism of normative subjectivity. The texts that I examine here reveal the ways in which postmodern reconfigurations of the monstrous Other challenge the (hetero)normativity of human subjectivity and its hierarchical forms of differentiation. My reading of these texts locates the possibilities for a hybridized, cyborgian existence beyond the outermost limits of positivistic, western subjectivity.

Biological molecular motors achieve directed motion and perform work in an environment dominated by thermal noise and in most cases incorporate thermally driven motion into the motor process. Inspired by bio-molecular motors, many other motor systems that incorporate thermal motion have been developed and studied. These motors are broadly referred to as Brownian motors. This dissertation presents simulation studies of two particular Brownian motors, the feedback-controlled flashing ratchet and an artificial molecular motor concept, the results of which not only drive experimental considerations but also illuminate physical behaviors that may be applicable to other Brownian motors.
A flashing ratchet rectifies the motion of diffusive particles using a time dependent, asymmetric potential energy landscape, and the transport speed of the ratchet can be increased if information about the particle distribution is incorporated as feedback in the time dependency of the landscape. Using a Langevin Dynamics simulation, we compare two implementations of feedback control, a discrete algorithm and a continuous algorithm, and find that the discrete algorithm is less sensitive to fluctuations in the particle distribution. We also model an experimental system with time delay and find that the continuous algorithm can be improved by adjusting the feedback criteria to react to the expected state of the system after the delay time rather than the real-time state of the system.
Motivated by the desire to understand bio-molecular linear stepping motors, we present a bottom-up approach of designing an artificial molecular motor. We develop a coarse-grained Molecular Dynamics model that is used to understand physical contributions to the diffusive stepping time of the motor and discover that partially reducing the diffusional space from 3D to 1D can dramatically increase motor speed. We also develop a stochastic model based on the classical Master equation for the system and explore the sensitivity of the motor to currently undetermined experimental parameters. We find that a reduced diffusional stepping time is critical to maintain motor attachment for many successive steps and explore an experimental design effect that leads to motor misstepping.

Community wildfire protection plans in the American West
Abrams, Jesse

Nielsen-Pincus, Max
Large wildfires are increasingly common in the American West. The federal government is responsible
for the majority of suppression costs, and has a significant interest in policies that can improve
resilience at the community level. The Healthy Forests Restoration Act (HFRA) of 2003 encourages
communities to complete Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPPs). While not mandatory, CWPPs
give communities access to federal and state funding for activities highlighted in plans. HFRA allows flexibility
to adapt plans to local contexts; however, little is known about whether communities have capitalized
on the opportunity to develop site-specific plans that meet the needs of individual communities. This
research analyzed CWPP structure and content to better understand variability between plans.

Silverton Notice of Adopted Amendment (2007-08-06)

Land Use
These proposed amendments provide clear and objective standards in addition to those applicable to permitted uses in a particular zone. The intent is to expand the clearly defined objective standards to address situations that may occur in multiple zones (e.g. caretaker units, contractors offices, accessory structures, drive-up windows, park and ride facilities, etc.) so that conditional use permit review is unnecessary for uses that can meet the standards, which apply in multiple zones.

An Exploration of the Role of English Language Proficiency in Academic Achievement

Achievement

English language proficiency
Growth
Reading
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between English language proficiency scores as measured by the ACCESS for ELLs and achievement and growth scores on the reading subtest of the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP). The sample consisted of 2,006 3rd-5th grade English language learners (ELLs) from a large Midwestern school district. Results confirmed that an increase in English proficiency is associated with higher reading achievement scores. The unique variance explained by each of the domain scores (reading, writing, speaking, and listening) on the ACCESS for ELLs supports the use of a weighted composite score for decision making purposes. When considering within-year MAP growth by differing levels of proficiency, a curvilinear trend emerged. The two lowest proficiency groups demonstrated significantly lower reading growth than the two moderate and two highest proficiency groups. The greatest growth was seen by the two groups in the middle of the proficiency spectrum. Given the increased demands on measuring the achievement and progress of all students, including ELLs, and the use of standardized achievement scores for program and teacher evaluation, the results of this study suggest that a dichotomous classification of ELL/non-ELL might not accurately reflect the variability in growth at various levels of English proficiency. Implications for interpreting and using scores by ELLs are discussed.

Pettit Lake: A New Treasure for Silverton
Koonce, Elizabeth
Ribe, Robert
This report includes student work from the LA 489/589 Advanced Design Studio in fall term of 2019. This work was executed by landscape architecture students in collaboration with the city of Silverton with the goal of presenting cohesive designs for the Pettit Lake property as a public park and possible income-generating resource for the City.
Site analyses of geology, hydrology, landslide risk assessment, existing park assets, soils, sunlight, acoustics, and historical vegetation are included, as well as background research on the city of Silverton; The Oregon Garden, which abuts the site; and Don Pettit, the former resident of the site.
Students working in small groups developed three combined plans as well as eight individual designs. Student final projects, focusing on design goals and objectives for the site, include passive day-use parks, naturalistic campgrounds, hiking trails, funiculars, and wildlife interpretation centers. Various potential design layouts and programmatic combinations are included in this report in response to the city of Silverton’s program matrix elements. Eight distinct designs were produced, which were combined into three plans. Of key importance for Silverton community members were the retention of the site’s natural character and calm, secluded quality, while still allowing public enjoyment of the landscape. Students incorporated these objectives into their final designs.

Virgil's Aeneid, Book 8; An Experiment in Translation
Hamel, John
Bowditch, Lowell
Aeneid
Dryden
Latin language
semantic range
Vergil
Virgil
English and Latin, though related, are very different languages, Latin with its inflections and small vocabulary, English with its overwhelming word order and expansive lexicon. Any translation from Latin to English will necessarily involve explanatory additions to the text. This is all the more true for Latin poetry, and above all for Virgil, who manages to create surprising and moving expressions line after line. Most modern translators have aimed for a literal version of the Aeneid, at the expense of mirroring in English some of the verbal magic and power of Virgil’s Latin. Dryden and Surrey strove to imitate these Virgilian features and in so doing created living poetry in English.
This translation strives to render in English a hint of the power of Virgil’s expressions. And Virgil’s own treatment of Homer and Greek literature and the whole translation-orientated project of early Latin literature lend weight to such an approach.

Reconstructing Gendered Narratives Online: Nudity for Popularity on Digital Platforms
Mukhongo, Lynete Lusike
The focus of this paper is on how young female internet users in Africa, with emphasis on Kenya, are constructing their own gendered narratives online. The emphasis is on how they are appropriating social media by posting controversial and often nude pictures of themselves online, a major shift in the production and consumption of such images in a patriarchal culture, which is driven by mainstream discourse that often assumes that the patriarchal culture exploits the female body in mainstream visual cultures. Today, we are witnessing female internet users carefully manipulating social media whether in a bid to feed into the patriarchal dominated culture that exploits the female body, or as a method to exploit that very patriarchal culture that draws its life from visuals that exploit the female body.

Platform Bazaar
Bjork, Aaron
In the first century, Romans gathered in open-air marketplaces known now by the word bazaar, a variant of the Persian word bazar. As hubs for converging trade routes, these marketplaces served not only as sites for commerce, but mixing pots for cultural diffusion, social interaction, and ideological discourse. It was also a convenient place for the Roman government to collect taxes and keep a watchful eye on trade. With the ubiquitous American shopping mall in mind, this model of exchange has not changed very much through the millennia. Computing has allowed each interaction, whether it be surveillance or trade, to be more convenient. The ancient bazaars functioned similarly to what is now considered a platform, or an entity that moderates the relationship of two or more actors. Digital platforms have become omnipresent, and their implicit power structures have become problematic. I will use this document to observe some problems that have come to my attention with the entanglement of a global society and its device.

Radical Transformation: How Climate Rebels are Facilitating the Imagination and Transition to a Sustainable Future
McAllister, Walter
Muraca, Barbara
LeMenager, Stephanie
McWhorter, Brian
Climate
Activism
Extinction Rebellion
Imagination
Sustainability
This thesis addresses the role that climate activism plays in the transformation to a sustainable future. It looks at radical movements on the different levels of change, with a particular emphasis on the imaginary. It addresses fossil fuels and capitalism, a tight-knit relationship that goes back centuries. Using the climate activist group Extinction Rebellion as a case study, this thesis outlines their strategies and intentions to mobilize 3.5% of the population. It provides a framework for how to create efficiency in the policy-making process with the proposal of citizens’ assemblies. This thesis also discusses the lack of inclusivity inherently created by the whiteness of the environmental movement and media bias. Finally, it ties in the work of youth activists to represent that global problems require people of all demographics. It concludes that the climate movement requires the attention of everyone, along with their collective imaginations, if meaningful change is going to occur.

Exclusive group formation as a collective action problem

Public goods
Clubs
Collective behavior
By traditional economic reasoning, the production and sale of private goods is assumed to be efficient in a pure market because only the owners of privately held goods can access and enjoy them. In contrast, public goods are likely to be under supplied, because individuals can free ride on the contributions of others. Citizens can solve the free rider problem either spontaneously or through the use of coercive tools such as taxation. However, such solutions will rarely be efficient. An alternative solution, seldom studied by political scientists, is the formation of clubs. Clubs exist to provide semi-public goods to their members. If only contributing members of a club can access its product (the club good), the club should be free of the free-rider problem. Because club goods are finite and rivalrous, clubs are subject to "crowding effects"; that is, per-member benefits will decline if clubs grow too large. Clubs can minimize this crowding by limiting the size of their membership. Clubs are traditionally formulated as consumer- driven arrangements, driven solely by the wealth-maximizing preferences of their memberships and not by external concerns. In an experimental setting, this dissertation demonstrates that clubs also tolerate crowding if club membership is the sole source of some club good for otherwise excluded individuals. Club members can minimize the effects of this crowding by making multilateral promises not to overuse the club good. This means that clubs members do consider the social ramifications of the club's membership policies, and those membership policies respond to government action (specifically, the presence of other funding for excluded individuals). This has implications for both the study of clubs and the associations that resemble them: firms, coalitions, and communities.

Fractal geometry is a well-known model for capturing the multi-scaled complexity of
many natural objects. By analyzing three-dimensional images of pyramidal neurons
in the rat hippocampus CA1 region, we examine how the individual dendrites within
the neuron arbor relate to the fractal properties of the arbor as a whole. We find that
the dendrites reveal unexpectedly mild fractal characteristics quantified by a low
fractal dimension. This is confirmed by comparing two fractal methods—a traditional
“coastline” method and a novel method that examines the dendrites’ tortuosity
across multiple scales. This comparison also allows the dendrites’ fractal geometry to
be related to more traditional measures of their complexity. In contrast, the arbor’s
fractal characteristics are quantified by a much higher fractal dimension. Employing
distorted neuron models that modify the dendritic patterns, deviations from natural
dendrite behavior are found to induce large systematic changes in the arbor’s
structure and its connectivity within a neural network. We discuss how this
sensitivity to dendrite fractality impacts neuron functionality in terms of balancing
neuron connectivity with its operating costs. We also consider implications for
applications focusing on deviations from natural behavior, including pathological
conditions and investigations of neuron interactions with artificial surfaces in human
implants.

Distance education is a new frontier for many rural California schools. In the spring of 2020, a global pandemic caused an immediate transition to online, synchronous learning platforms for the entire state. In discussion-based classrooms, where students build learning from the material, and interaction with each other, the shift posed new challenges to educators and students. This mixed methods action research case study focused on teaching about deep, challenging issues in the area of educational equity using a web-based platform. Focusing on a Northern California University course that is a pre-requisite for teacher candidates, data were collected over the course of two semesters. Forty-eight students were surveyed regarding their experiences taking part in deep discussion around equity issues over a synchronous Zoom platform. Interviews with four instructors and seven student volunteers were conducted to add depth to the survey data. A key finding from this dissertation is that Students of Color were significantly less comfortable discussing issues of race, gender, and equity with their cameras on than were White students. Additional findings pointed to race and gender-based preferences in engagement with the class material. Data indicate that the use of a multi-component pedagogy including anonymous discussion boards, chat posts, and group breakouts is important to reaching all students when engaging an online class in discussions about race, gender, and sexuality.

'Bad Gypsies' and 'Good Roma': Constructing Ethnic and Political Identities through Education in Russia and Hungary
Dunajeva, Jekatyerina
Parsons, Craig

Hungary
Identity politics

Roma
Russia
This dissertation seeks to unpack how the two dominant images--'bad Gypsies' and 'good Roma'--developed and are mobilized in formal and informal educational institutions in Hungary and Russia and how those are perceived by Roma/Gypsies themselves. The former ethnic category has evolved over centuries, since Gypsies were increasingly defined as the quintessential 'Other', associated with resistance to authority, criminality, lack of education and discipline, and backwardness. The latter image has been advanced over the last few decades to counter negative stereotypes latent in the `Gypsy' label. Various non-state actors are promoting a new image, that of proud, empowered, and educated 'good Roma'. Mobilization of both images is distinctly recognizable in schools--it is in formal and informal educational institutions where the 'bad Gypsy' image is most visibly sustained and reproduced, while these sites are also supposed to be indisputable tools of empowerment and positive identity building.
Relying on approximately 12 months of fieldwork in Hungary and Russia, the study pursues three goals. First, it examines the origins, institutionalization, and deployment of ethnic labels used to categorize Roma. I show that two images, `bad Gypsies' and `good Roma that are contradictory in content, were reified and essentialized. Second, it investigates the mechanisms of imbuing Roma youth with normative values of these ethnic labels in formal and informal educational institutions through school instructions, curricular and extra-curricular activities, disciplinary practices, and discourse. Third, it assesses Roma response and techniques of coping to the given essentialized images about their group identity.
Overall, the dissertation is composed of two sections: a historical and contemporary examination of Roma identity formation and ethnic labeling practices. I interrogate issues of nationhood, belonging, and identity politics surrounding the Roma minority by in depth study of identity formation and construction of exclusionary nationhood in Russia and Hungary. Any attempt to understand contemporary European political, economic, and social conditions cannot ignore the Roma, an issue that requires an urgent sustainable solution. Improving Roma living conditions and elimination of prejudice against Roma requires a holistic approach and a comprehensive understanding, which is the ambition that this study pursues.

How Do the Visible Hide? A Report on Marginal Identity
Brennan, Lily Wai
Lionni, Sylan
posthuman feminism
marginalization

installation art
How does one hide from the world when you walk through it observed like an animal in a zoo? Meandering through a childhood sited in a rural, conservative, white community, I was continuously faced with nonconsensual moments that highlighted my body as speculative; otherworldly, exotic, an exhibition. I learned very quickly what it meant to be marginalized. When you are displaced in an environment of whiteness, you feel how visible you are in the world. It becomes quickly apparent that you are an outsider. Nothing is thicker than the otherness that reeks out of your apparently abnormal flesh.
In How Do the Visible Hide? A Report on Marginal Identity, posthuman feminism, queer internet culture, adolescence, and immersive illusion collide together to serve as tools for investigating the marginal experience within a predominantly white, American ecosystem.

Museums
Art education programs offer formal and informal learning opportunities to individuals with various experiences and abilities. However, there are fewer resources available to contribute to the cognitive, social, and emotional progress of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Many types of museums offer creative art programs that are accessible for students with ASD but this trend has not reached smaller museums or art centers. Similar practices that are used in large art museums can be applied to smaller establishments throughout the country by creating awareness of ASD and providing examples of programs for children with autism. This research seeks to discover the practices used in Art Therapy, formal learning environments, and free learning environments in order to understand how to educate children with ASD through literature reviews. This research project also consists of two case studies of programs specifically designed for children with ASD at the Denver Art Museum, in Denver Colorado and at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art in Eugene, Oregon. By understanding ASD and comparing these case studies, brief recommendations are provided to help implement programs for children with ASD. Small museums can use these recommendations to help create accessible learning opportunities for children with ASD that will enhance their social learning skills.

Goe thou forth my booke : authorial self-assertion and self-representation in printings of renaissance poetry
Renchler, Ronald S.
English poetry -- Early modern, 1500-1700 -- History and criticism
Skelton, John, 1460?-1529 -- Criticism and interpretation
Heywood, John, 1497?-1580? -- Criticism and interpretation
Churchyard, Thomas, 1520?-1604 -- Criticism and interpretation
Taylor, John, 1580-1653 -- Criticism and interpretation
The introduction of printing into England created new opportunities for the Renaissance poet to represent himself more forcefully as a literary artist concerned with the well-being or improvement of his culture and to make public his desire for recognition as a contributor to England's literary heritage. One of the primary ways he could do so was to create a distinctive image of himself in his printed works. He could communicate his chosen image in two ways: in a traditional way, by using the language and content of his poetry, and in a new way--primarily visual rather than linguistic--by conveying an image through textual features made possible with the advent of printing. For example, a poet could guarantee that he would receive perpetual credit for his work and he could link authorship and book directly in the consciousness of his readers by seeing to it that his name was placed prominently on the title page. He could include an address to his readers, advertize his previously published works, or give information about forthcoming books. He could define himself by using mottoes or insignia or symbolic devices. Perhaps most significantly, he could include a physical image of himself in the form of a woodcut or engraved portrait. This study attempts to enlarge our understanding of the individual author's role in shaping the Renaissance literary system by analyzing both the linguistic and nonlinguistic features of the printed texts of four Renaissance poets: John Skelton, John Heywood, Thomas Churchyard, and John Taylor. It investigates the way these poets integrated their poetry with the physical features of their printed books in order to gain widespread recognition and to persuade their readers of the value of their contributions to Renaissance literary culture.

Extending the Line: Early Twentieth Century American Women's Sonnets
Wakefield, Eleanor
Peppis, Paul
American
Modernism
Poetics
Poetry
Sonnet
Women
This dissertation rereads sonnets by three crucial but misunderstood early twentieth-century women poets at the intersection of the study of American literary history and scholarship of the sonnet as a genre, exposing and correcting a problematic loss of nuance in both narratives. Genre scholarship of the sonnet rarely extends into the twentieth century, while early twentieth-century studies tend to focus on nontraditional poem types. But in fact, as I show, formal poetry, the sonnet in particular, engaged deeply with the contemporary social issues of the period, and proved especially useful for women writers to consider the ways their identities as women and poets functioned in a world that was changing rapidly. Using the sonnet’s dialectical form, which creates tension with an internal turn, and which engages inherently with its own history, these women writers demonstrated the enduring power of the sonnet as well as their own positions as women and poets. Tying together genre and period scholarship, my dissertation corrects misreadings of Edna St. Vincent Millay, Sarah Teasdale, and Helene Johnson; of the period we often refer to as “modernism”; and of the sonnet form.

This thesis serves to examine to current status of experiential education within
institutions of higher education in the United States, focusing on the Urban Farm at the
University of Oregon. It begins with an introduction to the project and an explanation of
the personal relevance of this project in the author's academic experience. This is
followed by a foundational look at experiential education and its role in university
settings. After examining the learning side of the equation, attention turns to the
University of Oregon Urban Farm itself, giving a history and overview of the program.
This is followed by a quick glance at case studies of other student farming programs.
These topics are then combined and the efficacy of the Urban Farm is measured by
standards of experiential education. The study concludes with a look to the future of this
program and place and provides suggestions for ensuring the success of the Urban Farm
moving forward, understanding the importance of the Urban Farm an a potential
antidote to current political and environmental crises.

Re-energizing the Connections between Health and Affordable Housing: A Regional Strategy for Coordination and Implementation
Hicks, Paul
Drawing a connection between quality housing, housing affordability, neighborhood attributes and community health is not a fundamentally new concept. Early housing standards implemented across cities during the industrial revolution concentrated interventions on slum housing around factories. During this era, the public health movement and the planning of urban housing held common roots in improving sanitation to mitigate adverse health outcomes generated through squalid housing conditions. While early successes in coordinating housing and population health efforts led to the control of diseases like cholera and tuberculosis, the two disciplines are now generally separate and uncoordinated.
In 2010, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) outlined a guiding strategy to articulate the Affordable Care Act’s goal of enhancing community health outcomes. The resulting document, the National Prevention Strategy (NPS), encompasses a compilation of academic research and best practices promoting the theme “health in all policies.”
The NPS uses evidence based findings to reframe the relationship between population health and the built environment as co-reliant. The strategy once again invites urban planners and public health practitioners to collaborate across disciplines to enhance positive community health outcomes through prevention based practices. Housing and health form an integral and historic link across these two professions. Even so, adverse health outcomes are still linked to poorly planned housing investments. Therefore, getting serious about improving health through better planning of the built environment requires analysis on how investments in affordable housing can forward community health goals at a regional level. This research explores how the theme “health in all policies,” can be introduced and implemented across the Eugene-Springfield region’s affordable housing initiatives and projects. Specifically, this research explores how the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan region can incorporate health elements and indices into affordable housing plans, initiatives, and investment strategies.

The numeric understanding measures: Developing and validating adaptive and nonadaptive numeracy scales

Decision-making
Numeracy—the ability to understand and use numeric information—is linked to good decision-making. Several
problems exist with current numeracy measures, however. Depending on the participant sample, some existing
measures are too easy or too hard; also, established measures often contain items well-known to participants.
The current article aimed to develop new numeric understanding measures (NUMs) including a 1-item (1-NUM),
4-item (4-NUM), and 4-item adaptive measure (A-NUM). In a calibration study, 2 participant samples (n = 226 and
264 from Amazon’s Mechanical Turk [MTurk]) each responded to half of 84 novel numeracy items.We calibrated
items using 2-parameter logistic item response theory (IRT) models. Based on item parameters, we developed the
3 new numeracy measures. In a subsequent validation study, 600 MTurk participants completed the new numeracy
measures, the adaptive Berlin Numeracy Test, and the Weller Rasch-Based Numeracy Test, in randomized order.
To establish predictive and convergent validities, participants also completed judgment and decision tasks, Raven’s
progressive matrices, a vocabulary test, and demographics. Confirmatory factor analyses suggested that the
1-NUM, 4-NUM, and A-NUM load onto the same factor as existing measures. The NUM scales also showed
similar association patterns to subjective numeracy and cognitive ability measures as established measures. Finally,
they effectively predicted classic numeracy effects. In fact, based on power analyses, the A-NUM and 4-NUM
appeared to confer more power to detect effects than existing measures. Thus, using IRT, we developed 3 brief
numeracy measures, using novel items and without sacrificing construct scope. The measures can be downloaded
as Qualtrics files (https://osf.io/pcegz/).

Ellis Lawrence designed the Men’s Dormitory in the Colonial Revival style, the style reserved for his secondary campus
buildings (ie, those not on the Memorial Quadrangle) such as Education West and East. This is also seen in his design work in the
East (possibly Whitman College). This building was one of seventeen of Lawrence’s works to be selected to be shown in an Oregon
AIA exhibit in 1929. Originally, the dormitory was built to be self-sustaining per Oregon’s Enabling Act (1859), which was enacted to
finance new university buildings. Total cost was $375,000 including construction, lands and furnishings. To make the new dormitory
comply with the self-sustaining rule, room rents were raised higher than they had been at its predecessor, Friendly Hall; rooms in
Straub were $36 per term plus $1.00 per day for board.
The new Men’s Dormitory was completed in seven short months in 1928, with six residential units, a central kitchen and dining
room, six additional dining rooms which could be opened to create a large hall, an ice plant, sewing room, linen room, laundry, an
electric engine room and storage rooms in the basement. During WWII women students were moved into half of Straub Hall. In 1946,
temporary housing arrived to handle the 47% increase in students returning from the war. The women were later moved into their own
new dormitory, Carson Hall, in January of 1949.
