مستخلص: Objective: To examine aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity disparities among college cis-gender and transgender students adjusting for other socio-demographic characteristics (age, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation). Methods: National Collegiate Health Assessment (NCHA) data collected between Fall 2015 and Fall 2018 were analyzed using chi-square tests for independence and odds ratios. Results: Cis-gender women were significantly less likely to meet aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity recommendations compared to cisgender men. Transgender men and transgender women were less likely to meet aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity recommendations compared to cisgender peers. Differences were also revealed among transgender individuals, with transgender women more and less likely to meet aerobic and muscle-strengthening recommendations respectively compared to transgender men. Conclusions: Considerable aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity participation disparities exist between cisgender and transgender emerging adults. The unique constraints that transgender college students experience in relation to both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activity participation require further examination to ensure the provision of equitable opportunities to be physically active.

مستخلص: Since their launch in 2002, open educational resources (OER) developed by the Innovative Resources for Instructional Success, better known as the IRIS Center, have become a staple of teacher preparation programs. In the spring of 2019, a survey of users revealed a diversity of ways teacher educators incorporate IRIS Center OERs within their preparation programs. This article describes these innovative applications and presents a snapshot of who IRIS users are and which IRIS Center OERs are most frequently used.

الوصف: This thesis explores the deeply embedded early stages of high-mass star formation through two key observational projects. The first project characterises a sample of 731 high-mass star forming clumps hosting class II methanol masers. Masers detected with the Methanol Multibeam Survey are associated with counterparts in the Herschel Infrared Galactic Plane Survey (Hi-GAL), and the properties of these clumps are determined by fitting to the infrared spectral energy distribution. Compared to the entire population of protostellar YSOs visible with Hi-GAL, the maser sources are found to be generally more massive and more luminous in the infrared, but occupying a restricted luminosity-to-mass range within the bounds covered by the total Galactic population. Principal component analysis is used to explore the intra- and inter-sample trends and identifies a sample of 896 protostellar objects with properties consistent with the maser host sample. An average 70 micron flux density deficiency in the maserless protostellar objects suggests that the matched protostellar sources may recently have evolved beyond the point at which they can sustain a luminous 6.7GHz methanol maser. An apparent minimum 70 micron luminosity required to sustain a methanol maser of a given luminosity is seen. The addition of other observed masers to the analysis provides further evolutionary segregation within the sample and a proposed timeline of maser species is presented, including statistical lifetime estimates. The second project is a study of a single infrared dark cloud in an early stage of evolution with weak signatures of star formation activity, combining data from the Sub-millimeter Array, the Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array and the Atacama Compact Array. From the continuum emission, the clump has a low degree of internal fragmentation with only two cores detected, of masses 32 and 9 solar masses respectively. At least two developed outflows are clearly identified despite the early evolutionary stage, and have entrained comparable mass to more evolved objects of size, despite the dark nature of the object at 70 microns. The momentum and energy contained within the outflows is also calculated from the observations. The inferred accretion derived from outflows give an accretion rate onto the brightest embedded core is equal to 32% of the global infall rate observed towards the clump from single dish data. The momentum flux in the outflows against luminosity suggests that these cores are in the early stages of forming two high-mass stars of 50 and an 8 solar masses, and therefore this clump is likely an OB association precursor. The use of different molecular species as probes of temperature towards cold core regions in the presence of established outflows is also discussed.

الوصف: Literature regarding trans and gender diverse (TGD) prisoners’ experiences of prison custody is limited. Reviewing international literature enables a better understanding of these experiences and how effectively TGD policies are implemented. This systematic review employed PRISMA and ENTREQ guidelines to enhance transparency in reporting the synthesis of qualitative and mixed‐methods research. Seventeen papers were included and through meta‐ethnographic synthesis three overarching themes emerged: structural, interpersonal and intrapersonal. Recommendations include reducing reliance on survival strategies by TGD prisoners through implementation of policies which meet TGD prisoners’ needs and to enabling better informed decision making regarding housing. Further research into lived experiences would allow for a better understanding of what currently works, how services could be improved, and identify potential training needs.

الوصف: This study examined strategies that seven corporate leaders use to enhance their performance within boundaryless work contexts. Participants described their best and worst days as examples of interrole facilitation and conflict. The behaviors, values, and beliefs underlying interrole facilitation strategies were then deduced. Experiences of interrole facilitation were characterized by wellbeing, efficacy, and connection. Interrole conflict was experienced as the absence of these, combined with stress, pressure, feeling out of control, and having a sense of defeat. Various planning and executing behaviors as well as internal and external conditions were believed to impact interrole facilitation. Participants? values and beliefs emphasized the importance of connection with others, self-care, contribution, and active management of themselves and their schedule. Further research should examine the intrapersonal and interpersonal conditions that act on interrole facilitation behaviors and identify recovery strategies to help individuals shift from interrole conflict to interrole facilitation.

الوصف: BACKGROUND AND AIMS. Prior to gender affirming medical interventions, transgender people often experience high levels of body dissatisfaction and poor mental health in comparison to the cisgender (i.e., non-transgender) population. Body dissatisfaction and poor mental health have been associated with eating disorder psychopathology within the cisgender population. Transgender people are therefore an important group to target for intervention development. Participating in physical activity and/or sport within the cisgender population has been associated with body satisfaction and mental well-being. The overarching aim for the research reported on in this thesis was therefore to explore the role of body (dis)satisfaction, mental health and medical transition on physical (in)activity and eating disorder symptoms within the transgender population. Studies that have evaluated gender affirming medical interventions have been limited by the outcome tools used and therefore this thesis also aimed to develop and validate a new measure to assess intervention and treatment outcomes. PARTICIPANTS. Treatment seeking transgender people were invited to take part in all of the empirical studies reported on in this thesis. For some studies, transgender people from the community and/or cisgender participants were also recruited. MAIN FINDINGS. Despite being motivated, many transgender people reported having negative experiences engaging in physical activity and/or sport due to numerous internal and external barriers. Many of these barriers are directly or indirectly related to body dissatisfaction. Cross-sex hormones appeared to increase physical activity participation, possibly by alleviating body dissatisfaction and increasing mental well-being. It was also found that body dissatisfaction played a key role in the existence of eating disorder symptoms. Transgender people who had taken cross-sex hormones reported lower levels of eating disorder symptoms, possibly due to an increase in body satisfaction. Finally, this thesis successfully developed a new outcome measure in collaboration with transgender people and experts working in transgender healthcare. This measure was named the Gender Congruence and Life Satisfaction Scale (GCLS) and was found to be valid and reliable. IMPLICATIONS. Spreading awareness of the barriers that transgender people face in relation to physical activity and sport engagement may help this population to become more active. Being more active is important for transgender people as it may have body image and mental health benefits. Cross-sex hormones appear to be crucial in reducing body dissatisfaction and increasing mental well-being. Possibly because of this, physical activity levels are higher among people who have taken cross-sex hormones. Additionally, cross-sex hormones also appear to reduce eating disorder symptoms. However, the research in this thesis is cross-sectional. Future research should adopt a longitudinal research design, particularly now that a new tool to evaluate intervention and treatment outcomes (the GCLS) has been developed. This tool is likely to make important advances in research which will contribute towards increasing the well-being of the transgender population.

الوصف: This thesis is the first sustained study of Long Meg of Westminster, a figure of Henrician England featured in premodern literature and folklore. Famous for her ‘excesse in height’, she features in a wide selection of popular narratives and, by the seventeenth century, provides a name for a gun, a cannon, and the Bronze Age Stone Circle ‘Long Meg and her Daughters’ in Little Salkeld, Cumbria. While earlier critics such as Patricia Gartenberg (1983) and Bernard Capp (1998) have noticed similarities between Long Meg and Robin Hood’s characterisation as an outlaw, I argue that Long Meg’s ‘merry prankes’ engage with the discourses of gender, law and popular culture. In its consideration of women beyond their marginal roles in outlaw narratives, this thesis interrogates the exclusion which uniquely underpins the lost legal term waive through the conceptual vocabulary of biopolitics. The distinctive contribution of my research thus lies in three key areas: it provides a detailed critical analysis of Long Meg of Westminster, a literary account of the premodern waive, and offers an intervention in Agamben studies. Bringing legal materials such as Magna Carta (1215) and Henry de Bracton’s in De Legibus et Consuetudinibus Angliae [On the Laws and Customs of England] (c.1235) into dialogue with literary texts concerned with Long Meg (1590-1640), I show how the waive – the woman’s terminological equivalent to the outlaw – is characterised by a suspension in law and language. The introduction traces the textual and critical history of Long Meg alongside the early English law from which the waive first emerges. This discussion concludes with an outline of the overarching biopolitical framework of the thesis. The first three Chapters provide a comparative account of Long Meg alongside the jesting communities of Robin Hood and John Skelton. Chapters One and Two encompass their overlapping traditions as jestbook heroes in The Gest of Robyn Hode (c.1450), The Merie Tales of Skelton (c.1567) and The Life of Long Meg (1635). Using their shared stage presence as a cultural index to investigate the lost Long Meg of Westminster play (c.1594), Chapter Three examines dramatic works such as Anthony Munday’s The Downfall of Robert Earl of Huntington (c.1598) and Ben Jonson’s court masque The Fortunate Isles and their Union (c.1624). Chapters Four and Five turn to Meg’s absorption into alternate communities of women in Thomas Deloney’s prose narrative The Gentle Craft, the second part (c.1598) and the pseudonymous pamphlet ascribed to Mary Tattlewell and Joan Hit-him-home, The Womens Sharpe Revenge (1640). Distinct from the outlaw, the premodern waive illuminates the gendered difference which underpins Long Meg of Westminster’s tradition.

الوصف: Trans and gender diverse (TGD) youth often report poor relations with their parents and perceive these to be core to the mental health difficulties they experience. One aspect of psychological wellbeing that has not been well explored in relation to parental support is Quality of Life (QoL). To test the association between perceived parental support and QoL and, understand from the young person's perspective how parental support contributes to QoL. To address these aims a multi-methods design was used and 140 TGD youth aged 11-19 years old from the UK took part in an online survey in 2020. Validated measures of parental support and QoL were used in conjunction with open-ended survey questions about experiences of parental support. As expected, we found a significant and positive association between parental support and QoL. Two themes were found in the qualitative data: (1) Parental support is not black or white, (2) Knowledge is a catalyst for affirmative parental support. Our findings demonstrate the positive implications of affirmative family support on QoL but at the same time highlight how parental relations can be complex and frequently conditional. Organizations supporting young TGD people (e.g. those working in education, healthcare) should prepare young people for the complexity of family relationships. Knowledge and awareness were felt to be an important tool in increasing the likelihood of parental support, but affirmative and evidence-based support needs to be made more readily available.

الوصف: Emotional memories are processed during sleep; however, the specific mechanisms are unclear. Understanding such mechanisms may provide critical insight into preventing and treating mood disorders. Consolidation of neutral memories is associated with the coupling of NREM sleep slow oscillations (SOs) and sleep spindles (SPs). Whether SO–SP coupling is likewise involved in emotional memory processing is unknown. Furthermore, there is an age-related emotional valence bias such that sleep consolidates and preserves reactivity to negative but not positive emotional memories in young adults and positive but not negative emotional memories in older adults. If SO–SP coupling contributes to the effect of sleep on emotional memory, then it may selectively support negative memory in young adults and positive memory in older adults. To address these questions, we examined whether emotional memory recognition and overnight change in emotional reactivity were associated with the strength of SO–SP coupling in young ( n = 22) and older ( n = 32) adults. In younger adults, coupling strength predicted negative but not positive emotional memory performance after sleep. In contrast, coupling strength predicted positive but not negative emotional memory performance after sleep in older adults. Coupling strength was not associated with emotional reactivity in either age group. Our findings suggest that SO–SP coupling may play a mechanistic role in sleep-dependent consolidation of emotional memories.
