Abstract:
Introduction: Recipient travel distance may be an unrecognized burden in lung transplantation. Design: Retrospective single-center cohort study of all adult (≥18 years) first-time lung-only transplants from January 1, 2010, until February 28, 2017. Recipient distance to transplant center was calculated using the linear distance from the recipient’s home zip code to the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. Results: 569 recipients met inclusion criteria. Posttransplant graft survival was 85%, 88%, 91%, and 91% at 1 year and 49%, 52%, 57%, and 56% at 5 years posttransplant for recipient travel distances of ≤50, >50 to ≤250, >250 to ≤500, and >500 miles, respectively ( P = .10). Discussion: We found no significant relationship between recipient travel distance and posttransplant graft survival. In carefully selected recipients, travel distance is not a significant barrier to successful posttransplant outcomes which may be important for patient decision-making and donor allocation policy. These data should be validated in a national cohort.

Abstract:
This experiment expanded the visual availability paradigm by subsuming it under the broader principle of recipient design. We varied recipient design by asking speakers to describe a picture to someone who would see a videotape of their description or only hear an audiotape. Second, speakers described pictures that varied in verbal encodability. Finally, in addition to gestural rate, we analysed the redundancy of gestures with words. The results (N = 40) confirmed our predictions that speakers gesture at a higher rate and use a higher proportion of nonredundant gestures when their recipient would see their videotape; that they also use more nonredundant gestures when describing a picture for which they have a poor vocabulary; and that these two factors interact to produce the strongest effects when vocabulary is limited and the recipient would see the videotape. These effects support the hypothesis that speakers design their gestures to communicate to recipients.

Abstract:
Problem definition: We analyze a resource allocation problem faced by medical surplus recovery organizations (MSROs) that recover medical surplus products to fulfill the needs of underserved healthcare facilities in developing countries. The objective of this study is to identify implementable strategies to support recipient selection decisions to improve MSROs’ value provision capability. Academic/practical relevance: MSRO supply chains face several challenges that differ from those in traditional for-profit settings, and there is a lack of both academic and practical understanding of how to better match supply with demand in this setting where recipient needs are typically private information. Methodology: We propose a mechanism design approach to determine which recipient to serve at each shipping opportunity based on recipients’ reported preference rankings of different products. Results: We find that when MSRO inventory information is shared with recipients, the only truthful mechanism is random selection among recipients, which defeats the purpose of eliciting information. Subsequently, we show that (1) eliminating inventory information provision enlarges the set of truthful mechanisms, thereby increasing the total value provision; and (2) further withholding information regarding other recipients leads to an additional increase in total value provision. Finally, we show that under a class of implementable mechanisms, eliciting recipient valuations has no value added beyond eliciting preference rankings. Managerial implications: (1) MSROs with large recipient bases and low inventory levels can significantly improve their value provision by appropriately determining the recipients to serve through a simple scoring mechanism; (2) to truthfully elicit recipient needs information to support the recipient selection decisions, MSROs should withhold inventory and recipient-base information; and (3) under a set of easy-to-implement scoring mechanisms, it is sufficient for MSROs to elicit recipients’ preference ranking information. Our findings have already led to a change in the practice of an award-winning MSRO.

Abstract:
Selfish incentives typically outperform prosocial incentives, and customer referral programs frequently use such “selfish” (i.e., sender-benefiting) incentives to incentivize current customers to recruit new customers. However, in two field experiments and a fully incentivized lab experiment, this research finds that “prosocial” (i.e., recipient-benefiting) referral incentives recruit more new customers. Five subsequent experiments test a process account for this effect, identifying two key psychological mechanisms: reputational benefits and action costs. First, at the referral stage, senders (existing customers) anticipate reputational benefits for referring recipients (potential new customers), who receive a reward for signing up. These reputational benefits render recipient-benefiting referrals just as effective as sender-benefiting referrals at the relatively low-cost referral stage. Second, at the uptake stage, recipient-benefiting referrals are more effective than sender-benefiting referrals: recipient-benefiting referrals directly incentivize recipients to sign up, providing a clear reward for an otherwise costly uptake decision. The preponderance of selfish, or sender-benefiting, referral incentives in the marketplace suggests these effects are unanticipated by marketers who design incentive schemes.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a standardized, psychometrically sound instrument for the emerging construct of change recipient proactivity (CRP), using a deductive approach. Design/methodology/approach Using a systematic item-development framework as a guide (i.e. item generation, questionnaire administration, item reduction and scale evaluation) and based on a sample of 414 white-collar employees, this paper discusses the development and validation of an instrument that can be used to measure change recipient’s proactive behavioral responses to planned change efforts. Findings Results suggest that our proposed CRP scale is internally consistent (reliable) and valid in that it is conceptually distinct from, yet empirically correlated with neighboring constructs such as affective commitment to change, readiness for change and proactive personality. Research limitations/implications The findings illustrate that change recipients can demonstrate proactive behaviors in response to change efforts. However, this study’s contribution is only a first step, requiring further theoretical and methodological refinement of the scale in different contexts. Originality/value The deductive nature of our study resulted in a comprehensive and domain-specific scale assessing recipients’ proactive responses to organizational change efforts. This opens doors to empirical studies on examining the conditions under which change recipients “may” step outside the boundaries of passivity to respond positively and proactivity to organizational change efforts.

Abstract:
Abstract Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) remains the therapy of choice for many haematological malignancies, but despite the curative benefit of the immunological graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect, relapse remains a key cause of death. We have investigated the role of recipient dendritic cells (DC) in antigen presentation to donor CD8 cytotoxic T cells (CTL) in a model of BMT where GVHD and GVL are directed to multiple minor histocompatibility antigens (mHA) and survival reflects GVL activity. C3H.Sw bone marrow and purified CD8 T cell grafts were transplanted with B6-derived MLL-AF9 induced primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) into lethally irradiated B6.CD11c.DOG recipients (diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR), ovalbumin and GFP expression driven off the CD11c promoter) such that recipient DC can be deleted by DT administration. Surprisingly, depletion of recipient DC resulted in improved leukemic control (median survival 43 vs 31 days, P <0.001). The use of IRF8-/- BMT recipients (in which the CD8+ DC subset is absent) confirmed that recipient CD8+ DC were critical for regulating these GVL effects (median survival 43 vs 34 days, P = 0.0005). Conversely, when recipient CD8+ DC were expanded in a B6 to B6D2F1 model with bcr-abl/Nup98-HoxA9 induced primary AML, by using Flt3-L treatment for 10 days prior to BMT, GVL effects were completely eliminated, rendering relapse rate equivalent to that seen in the recipients of T cell depleted (TCD) grafts (median survival 11 days in BM+T and TCD groups where recipients were pre-treated with Flt3-L, vs. >45 days in the saline treated BM+T group). The use of B6.CD11c-Rac1 transgenic BMT recipients (who cannot process and present exogenously acquired antigen) confirmed that this effect was the result of endogenous alloantigen presentation by recipient DC and independent of cross-presentation.Using the same depletion strategies in an antigen-specific model (with donor OT-I T cells and B6.CD11c.DOG x DBA/2 F1 recipients) we confirmed that recipient DC invoked effector donor CTL activation, differentiation (CD25+ CD69+ CD62L-) and subsequent apoptosis (as measured by Annexin V; 52.4% vs. 23.9% in DC replete vs. depleted recipients, P = 0.01). There was a consequent profound contraction of the donor CTL compartment by day 10 in DC replete recipients. This contraction of the CTL compartment was associated with reduced expression of the cytolytic molecule granzyme B (MFI 1922 vs 1097, P = 0.02). Antigen presentation has a critical role in the initiation of donor T cell alloreactivity and GVL after BMT. Here we demonstrate that endogenous alloantigen presentation by recipient CD8+ DC to donor T cells leads to activation induced death of donor CTL early after BMT, which in turn facilitates leukemic relapse. This concept has critical implications for the design of therapies that target DC in the peri-transplant period and confirms that recipient DC regulate GVL effects. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract:
The purpose of the research was to conduct a study of the impact of gentrification on the Metropolitan Atlanta area. This research focused on the policies that influenced or affected recipient communities because of gentrification. These changes are attributed to residents relocating from various sections of a transitioned community to another community. Available research, however, does not fully address the new challenges recipient communities face because of a boost in its population. Current research does not fully address the pressure on recipient communities’ resources due to (possible) lack of housing, schools, transportation, and social services because of an influx of citizens; nor does the current research fully address an overall strategy to sustainable community and economic development for recipient communities.

Abstract:
The aim of the present study is to examine the interactional functions of code-switching in plurilingual conversation, with a particular focus on those related to the elaboration of the social identities of the interlocutors, i. e. their identity work. The adopted analytical model was initiated by Auer, and further developed by Gafaranga, who combined it with the Membership Categorization Analysis elaborated by Sacks. The study is based on a corpus consisting of the audio recorded dinner talk of an Italian-Swedish family whose members use Swedish, Italian and a Ligurian dialect, and focuses on the sequential progression of the talk in interaction, thus based on an approach proper of conversation analysis. The participants create and display their different roles (identities), which are related to both group membership and individuality, a subsequent distinction made by Fant. Code-switching is used as a communicative strategy among the speakers and is used to make relevant identities, as well as a tool for the management of the interaction. The analysis is divided in two distinctive parts: one related to the code-switching connected to the organisational management of the conversation, the other connected to the identity work of the interlocutors. The linguistic codes used within the group are either inclusive (Swedish, Italian) or selective (Ligurian) and the analysis indicates a general inclusion rather than exclusion of interlocutors, as the speakers accommodating to the linguistic preferences and competences of the interlocutor. The speakers, when selecting a code, thus make use of recipient design, a concept worked out by Sacks, Schegloff & Jefferson. They choose code in order to include a particular interlocutor, adjusting to the language preferences of the other. There are some instances of asymmetrical plurilingual conversation, in which the interlocutors maintain different codes, but since the code choice appears to be anticipated by the addressee the interaction runs smoothly between them. As for the direction of the code switch, two different tendencies emerge: one in the switches connected to the identity work of the participants in which the direction of the switches seems to be highly significant. The other in the switches connected to the management of the conversation in which the direction proves to be reversible.

Abstract:
To address some remaining questions in the extant family caregiving literature, the present study examined a specific care-recipient (CR) problematic behavior that could be the most critical to family caregiver (CG) emotional and physical well-being--CR-resistance or uncooperative behaviors vis-à-vis the CG. In order to provide detailed descriptions of CR-resistance and to determine the impact of CR-resistance on CG emotional and physical well-being, the present study applied a sequential quantitative-qualitative mixed method design approach with 8-day diary survey data on 63 family CGs and follow-up semi-structured interview data from 19 of those CGs.The quantitative data documented and revealed significant within- and between-person variance in CR-resistance. Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) analyses results further revealed that neither the mean level nor the daily fluctuation of CR-resistance across 8 survey days by themselves appeared to have a significant impact on CG emotional or physical health. However, the combination of having relatively high mean level and daily fluctuation of CR-resistance brought had a significant impact on CG physical health; when CGs with relatively high mean level CR-resistance faced more than their usual amount of CR-resistance on a given day, they reported increases in physical health symptoms.The qualitative inductive thematic analyses revealed that based on the context in which CR-resistance occurred and the occurrence patterns, CR-resistance experiences could be divided into four types, and these four types of CR-resistance seem to pose different types and/or magnitude of impact on CG emotional well-being.Furthermore, informed by Social Cognitive Theory and Stress Theory, the present study also examined CG personal, interpersonal, and social resources as possible moderators of the link between CR-resistance and CG emotional/physical well-being. HLM analyses results revealed that CG sense of efficacy, community/professional service utilization, and family disagreement regarding care played significant moderating roles. The qualitative thematic analyses clearly suggested that specific CG cognitive resources--particularly those that were transferred and/or generalized from the CG's past professional or personal experiences--have a strong influence on CG resilience in the face of CR-resistance. The moderating results were interpreted light of theoretical frameworks and extant literature. Implications and future directions are discussed.

Abstract:
O porongo (Lagenaria siceraria) é o fruto de uma planta da família das cucurbitáceas que quando colhido, se deixado secar, torna-se oco com o mesocarpo similar ao aspecto da madeira e o exocarpo liso e impermeável. Este fruto disseminou-se por todos os continentes antes do homem e foi uma das primeiras plantas domesticadas. Diferentes povos utilizam o porongo na confecção de recipientes, instrumentos musicais, boias e máscaras. No sul do Brasil é empregado na fabricação das cuias, recipientes para o chimarrão. Planta de hábito tropical, adapta-se facilmente à qualquer clima, com ciclo produtivo anual configura-se em alternativa de fonte renovável. Como material natural orgânico, é suscetível à degradação sem tratamento. Buscando viabilizar sua utilização na fabricação de recipientes para alimentos e bebidas priorizou-se a caracterização da estrutura e a aplicação de técnicas de impermeabilização. Para a confecção da amostras foram utilizados frutos coletados em Santa Maria, RS, e para a impermeabilização foi utilizada resina poliuretana à base de óleo de mamona. A caracterização do material constituinte do porongo foi feita com auxílio de microscópio eletrônico de varredura, microscopio de luz transmitida, análise termogravimétrica, determinação do teor de umidade, da densidade básica e da aparente e através da digitalização tridimensional para análise da variação dimensional. A caracterização da resina foi feita por espectroscopia de infra-vermelho com transformada de Fourier e a eficiência da impermeabilização foi analisada através de ensaio de absorção de água e ângulo de contato de gota. Pela microscopia identificou-se o exocarpo como uma fina camada de células compactas, por isso impermeável, e o mesocarpo formado pelo parênquima, com células que aumentam de tamanho progressivamente em direção ao centro, caracterizadas por grandes espaços vazios com parede espessada lignificada e canais de comunicação intercelular, que faz o material ser altamente hidrofílico. Ao absorver a água, há o preenchimento dos vácuolos das células até a saturação, sem grandes alteraçãos das dimensões do material, dimensionalmente estável. O porongo possui densidade heterogênea muito baixa, em média 0,124 g/cm³, na faixa de densidade das espumas poliméricas. Quanto à absorção de água, as amostras sem tratamento tiveram aumento de massa de cerca de 150% até a saturação. Após a impermeabilização, as amostras com uma camada de resina tiveram aumento de massa entre 23% e 37%, enquanto que àquelas com duas camadas de resina de apenas 5% e 6%, o que indica a eficiência do método de impermeabilização.<br>The bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) is the fruit of the Cucurbitaceae family plant which when harvested, if allowed to dry, becomes hollow with the mesocarp similar to the appearance of the wood and with a smooth and impermeable exocarp. This fruit has spread to all continents before man and was one of the first domesticated plants. Different people use the gourd in the manufacture of containers, musical instruments, floats and masks. In southern Brazil it is used to manufacture the bowls, containers for mate. Tropical habit plant, easily adapts to any climate, with annual production cycle sets itself as renewable source alternative. As an organic natural material, it is susceptible to degradation without treatment. Seeking to enable its use in the manufacture of containers for food and beverages it has prioritized the characterization of the structure and the application of waterproofing techniques. Seeking allow its use in the manufacture of containers for food and beverages prioritized the characterization of the structure and the application of waterproofing techniques. To prepare the samples were used fruits collected in Santa Maria, RS, and for waterproofing was used polyurethane resin on castor oil base. The characterization of the material which constitutes porongo was made thorugh electron microscope scanning, transmitted light microscope, thermal analysis, determination of moisture content, basic and apparent density and by three-dimensional scanning to analyze the dimensional variation. The characterization of resin was made by infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform and the efficiency of the waterproofing was analyzed by water absorption and drop contact angle test. Microscopy enabled to identify the exocarp as a thin layer of compact cells, thus waterproof, and the mesocarp formed by parenchyma with cells that progressively increase in size towards the center, characterized by large empty spaces with thickened and lignified wall and intercellular communication channels, which makes the material be highly hydrophilic. By absorbing the water, there is filling in the vacuoles of the cells until the saturation without large re-arranging of the material dimensions, dimensionally stable. The gourd has very poor heterogeneous density, on average 0.124 g / cm³, in the density range of polymeric foams. Regarding to water-absorbing, untreated samples had mass increase of about 150% until saturation. After sealing, the samples with a resin layer had increased mass between 23% and 37%, while those with two resin layers only had increased mass from 5% to 6%, which indicates the sealing method efficiency.

Abstract:
Chatbots are becoming more common in modern society, but there are almost no studies that explore both the differences and causes that divides human communication from communication with a chatbot. The aim of this thesis was to explore different recipient design people take when communicating with a human and a chatbot. A chatbot was built and an experiment was conducted that measured the performance and experience of the participants. A thematic analysis then found out causes for these experiences. The study focused on finding new differences in addition to exploring people’s boredom, frustration, understanding, repetition, and performance in a task. The study found differences and causes in people’s recipient design when communicating with a human compared to a chatbot, as well as differences in the performance of a task. Hopefully, this will help future research figure out solutions for the differences found.

Adotou-se o aparato teórico – metodológico da Análise da Conversa (SACKS, 1992; SACKS; SCHEGLOFF; JEFFERSON, 1974) para analisar 25 interações ocorridas entre pacientes e profissionais médicos/as e não médicos/as – enfermeiros/as, nutricionistas, fisioterapeutas e psicólogos/as – integrantes da equipe multidisciplinar responsável pelas orientações aos/às pacientes. As interações foram gravadas em áudio e em vídeo e transcritas segundo Jefferson (1974). Os objetivos da tese foram: (a) verificar como os/as profissionais de saúde responsáveis pela efetuação do programa educacional recomendam ou prescrevem boas práticas de saúde no turno a turno de modo a discutir quais maneiras de falar mostram-se mais (potencialmente) particularizadas ou generalizadas em relação às necessidades demonstradas (ou não) pelos/as pacientes na interação e, a partir dessa discussão, apontar tendências de (não) adesão aos autocuidados recomendados ou prescritos por parte dos/as pacientes; (b) apresentar um percurso empírico representativo do programa educacional concernente à maneira como os/as participantes negociam, no turno a turno, direitos e obrigações de saber (domínio epistêmico) e de dizer (domínio deôntico) (HERITAGE, 2012; STEVANOVIC, 2011) o que (não) pode e/ou (não) dever ser feito em termos de boas práticas de saúde e, assim, discutir as implicações interacionais e práticas relacionadas às negociações entre os/as participantes em torno de direitos e obrigações de recomendar ou prescrever boas práticas de saúde; (c) discutir os modos de organização de prestação de serviço de orientação para boas práticas de saúde à luz do princípio da integralidade (BRASIL, 1998; MATTOS, 2005a). No que toca às maneiras de falar dos/as profissionais verificou-se que a particularização tende a ocorrer quando os/as profissionais instauram cursos de ação de modo a: (a) (tentar) remover empecilhos ao aceite do/a paciente à recomendação em favor de alguma boa prática de saúde; (b) desviar da ação de prover informações contidas nos manuais de boas práticas de saúde dos programas e demonstrar conhecimento sobre aspectos peculiares ao estado de saúde do/a enfermo/a; (c) justificar a indicação para a adoção de certa medida de cuidado de saúde. No que se refere à maneira como profissionais e pacientes negociam domínios epistêmicos e deônticos, observou-se que: (a) os/as profissionais não médicos/as colocam-se na posição de alguém com direitos e obrigações de saber e de dizer como pacientes devem controlar seu quadro de saúde; (b) os/as pacientes não ratificam os direitos e obrigações desses/as especialistas não médicos/as de saberem e poderem dizer-lhes como proceder no pós-alta; (c) os/as profissionais médicos/as abordam boas práticas de saúde em turnos de fala em formato de lista, o que conflita com a expectativa dos/as pacientes de discutir tais tópicos de maneira pormenorizada. Por fim, apurou-se que o modo de organização de prestação de serviço de orientação a pacientes que participam do programa Maxcárdio aproxima-se de ações assistenciais integrais (AYRES, 2004) à medida que os/as profissionais produzem falas capazes de estabelecer uma sequência de demonstração de necessidade de orientação a partir de solicitações de informações sobre se e como o/a paciente cuida de sua saúde. A contribuição teórica desta tese traduz-se na proposta de inclusão do aspecto modo de organização sequencial de tópico na descrição do princípio de fala ajustada (SACKS, 1992; SACKS; SCHEGLOFF; JEFFERSON, 1974). O modo como as sequências de tópicos são organizadas na interação mostra-se relevante para o grau de particularização que as falas dos/as interlocutores podem alcançar na conversa. Em termos aplicados, visto que ofertar recomendações ou prescrições ajustadas às necessidades dos/as pacientes interlocutores/as locais implicar saber se e como os/as doentes controlam seu estado de saúde, sugere-se que se parta da ação de solicitar informações acerca das experiências de sucesso e das dificuldades que os/as pacientes encontram para cuidar da saúde para, então, ter material interacional para orientá-los/as de forma particularizada.<br>This dissertation resulted from the investigation of educational programs into good health practices that a private hospital located in the South of Brazil accomplishes with Acute Coronary Syndrome and Congestive Heart Failure patients.

Interactions were audio and video recorded and transcribed according to Jefferson (1984). The present dissertation aimed to: (a) verify how the health professional responsible for accomplishing the educational program recommend or prescribe good health practices in the turn by turn of the interaction so as to discuss which ways of talking appear to be more (potentially) particularized or generalized in relation to patients` (not) displayed needs in the interaction and, from such discussion, to point out tendencies of (non) adherence to good practices recommended or prescribed by patients; (b) present an empirical trajectory representative of the educational program concerning the ways participants negotiate, in the interaction turn-by-turn, rights and obligation of knowing (epistemic domain) and saying (deontic domain) (HERITAGE, 2012; STEVANOVIC, 2011) what can (not) and/or must (not) be done in terms of good health practices so as to discuss the interaction and practical implication related to the negotiation around rights and obligations of recommending or prescribing good health practices; (c) discuss the ways of organizing provision of orientation to good health practices in the light of principle of integrality (BRASIL, 1998; MATTOS, 2005a). Regarding more or less particularized ways of talking concerning patients’ orientation needs, it has been verified that the professional members’ talk appear to be more particularized in situations in which they implement courses of action in such a way as to: (a) (try to) remove obstacles so that patients may accept professional members’ recommendations in favor of good health practices; (b) deviate from the action of providing information included in the manuals of good health practices of the programs and display knowledge regarding patients’ peculiar health conditions; (c) justify the indication of certain good health practice. In relation of the ways professional members and patients negotiate epistemic and deontic domains, it has been observed that: (a) non-medical members assume the position of someone who has rights and obligations of knowing and saying how patients must control their health conditions; (b) patients do not ratify these professionals’ rights and obligations of knowing and saying how they should proceed in the post-discharge; (c) medical doctors talk about good heath practices by list-formatting their turns at talk, which conflicts with patients’ expectations of discussing these topics in a minutely detailed way. In the third one, a comparing analysis between two interactions has been done. Finally, it has been verified that the way of organizing service of orientation to patients approximate integral assistance actions (AYRES, 2004) insofar as professional members produce talk capable of establish a demonstration sequence of orientation need from information solicitation concerning if and how the patient takes care of their health. The theoretical contribution of this dissertation may be translated into the proposal of including the aspect topic sequential organization mode in the description of the principle of recipiency-designed (SACKS, 1992; SACKS; SCHEGLOFF; JEFFERSON, 1974). The way topical sequences are organized in the interaction displays relevance to the degree of particularization interlocutors’ talk may reach. In terms of applicability, as providing recipient-designed recommendations or prescriptions to situated interlocutors’ needs implicates knowing if and how patients control their health conditions, we suggest that professional members depart from the action of soliciting information regarding patients’ successful and failed experiences and their difficulties in heath-caring so that interactional material may be generated and patients’ orientation may be done in a particularized way.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates human-robot interaction using an Interaction Analysis methodology. Posing the question how humans manage the interaction with a robot, the study focuses on humans and how they adapt to the robot’s limited conversational and interactional capabilities. As Conversation Analytic research suggests that humans always adjust their actions to a specific recipient, the author assumed to also find this in the interaction with an artificial communicative partner. For this purpose a conventional robot was programmed to play a charade game with human participants. The interaction of the humans with the robot was filmed and analysed within an interaction analytic framework. The study suggests that humans adapt their recipient design with their changing assumptions about the conversational partner. Starting off with different conversational expectations, participants adapt turn design (word selection, turn size, loudness and prosody) first and turn-taking in a second step. Adaptation to the robot is deployed as a means to accomplish a successful interaction. The detailed study of the human perspective in this interaction can yield conclusions for how robots could be improved to facilitate the interaction. As humans adjust to the interactional limitations with varying speed and ease, the limits to which adaptation is most difficult should be addressed first.

Abstract:
This chapter argues that a speaker’s utterance is not just recipient design. While fitting words into actual situational contexts, speakers are driven not only by the intent that the hearer recognize what is meant as intended by the speaker, but also by individual salience, which affects production subconsciously. The interplay of these social (recipient design) and individual factors (salience) shapes a speaker’s utterance. Recipient design is the result of being cooperative, which, according to Grice,is a part of human rationality. This chapter claims, however, that individual egocentrism that results in individual salience is part of human rationality just as much as cooperation is. It is claimed and demonstrated through examples that recipient design usually requires an inductive process that is carefully planned, while salience effect generally appears in the form of a deductive process that may contain repairs and adjustments.

Research and practice dedicated to communicating about health and risk to lay audiences grows exponentially with the availability of scientific knowledge on the subject. This work seeks to ensure that what is communicated is not only scientifically accurate but also avoids any partial information or overemphasis of particular features that result in beliefs or actions that may result in personal or societal harms.The Encyclopedia examines, among others: • message exposure and reach • message recipient sociodemographics • normative and integrated approaches • cognitive- and affect-based motivational processes • social determinants of health and riskMore than 150 scholars from around the globe examined the overarching topic from the lens of multiple disciplines and eras of thought. Novel insights emerge from systematic case studies used to illustrate some of these principles in practice, while gaps in existing research generate recommendations for future programs of study and practice.

Abstract:
This chapter provides a global analysis of main concepts, approaches, and outcomes from engaging young people in participatory processes within development initiatives. The chapter summarizes factors and processes enabling meaningful participation of adolescents in program design research, monitoring, and evaluation. This analysis focuses on adolescents living under difficult circumstances, such as instability and protracted conflict, natural disasters, and health epidemics associated with climate change, systemic poverty, and other forms of social marginalization. These adolescents are often the recipients of international humanitarian and development agency support and programming, yet rarely have the opportunity to evaluate the relevance, effectiveness, and impact of these efforts for their daily lives and communities. As research demonstrated, the potential impact of these efforts far outweighs any barriers or challenges identified in the literature, and in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals, it is no longer an option to exclude young people’s voices in these processes.

Abstract:
Chapter 6 reviews a series of welfare-to-work initiatives and evaluates their impacts. The chapter reveals various barriers for Dibao recipients to move from welfare to work, leading many of them to be unwillingly labeled welfare dependents. These include limited employability due to poor health, low level of education, lack of skills, middle age, long history of unemployment, lack of financial or social capital, family care responsibilities, lack of childcare and senior care services in the community, stigma from neighbors and local officials, and a series of policy design factors that deter work efforts. Local governments have experimented with an array of welfare-to-work programs, ranging from punitive approaches to protective measures, to those offering direct incentive for seeking and maintaining employment and providing job training and referrals. These initiatives have not been systematically evaluated. The limited existing evidence shows that they are ineffective in helping Dibao recipients move from welfare to work.

Abstract:
A business plan is a document that describes how to manage a specific activity in a specific period of time. It is actually a study, but also a communication tool, designed to provide information to its potential recipients, whether they are investors and potential partners. Most times, it is used as a tool for strategic decisions or as a tool for the implementation of specific actions. The contents of such a business plan may vary according to the sector of activity; nevertheless it must follow certain standards. Usually business plans are used for the presentation of a company's plans to a bank or another financial institution, for financing. It provides answers to the following three questions: where is the position of the company now, were wants to be and how will manage to be there.

Abstract:
Abstract Lung donation is the most risky transplant procedures. With low survival rates, and poor acceptance of donated lungs, those in need of a lung transplant are at high risk of dying. One reason for poor outcomes is the lack of optimal match between donor and recipient when it comes to lung size and shape. Lungs that do not properly fit in the recipient’s chest cavity can fail to inflate fully and quickly start to deteriorate. In such patients, lung contusions can form, edema occurs in healthy lung tissue, and overall lung function declines. To improve patient outcomes after lung transplant, we describe here a developed a computational pipeline which enables donor lungs to be properly matched to recipients. This tool uses CT scans from both the donor and potential recipients to calculate how anatomically different the sets of lungs are, and therefore provide improved matches in both size and shape for the donor lungs.

Abstract:
Vibration isolators are essentially used to reduce the magnitude of motion or force transmitted from a vibrating source to vibration recipient bodies. Such recipients might be a foundation, a structure, or even a human’s body. Despite all the advancement in vibration control using active and semi-active systems, passive vibration isolators are still widely used in different industrial applications because of their simplicity and low cost. In this paper we investigate an asymmetric one-degree of freedom vibration isolator. This is very important in practice, because all hydraulic dampers are asymmetric in nature. Due to the non-linearity of this system as a result of asymmetric damping, analytical methods of averaging and numerical simulation are used to analyze its frequency and time response characteristics. Optimal damping and stiffness values for the isolator are obtained by minimizing the cost functions, which are the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the acceleration transmissibility and the relative displacement transmissibility. The effect of the asymmetric damping on the optimal values in passive systems are then analyzed and used to create a design chart for the isolator parameters. In addition, the effect of asymmetry on the conventional semi-active systems is studied and the method to the optimal design of asymmetric semi-active systems is discussed.

Abstract:
This paper presents a framework allowing emblematic gestures detection, segmentation and their recognition for human-robots interaction purposes. This framework is based on a new coding of arms’ kinematics reflecting both the muscular activity of the performer and the appearance of arm seen by the recipient when a gesture is performed. Following that, gestures can be seen as sequences of torques activations leading arm’s parts to express a comprehensive meaning. In addition, these sequences have very stable topologies and shapes regardless to performers. This facilitates the generalization of the recognition process with a minimalistic learning effort for online usages. Promising results were obtained for a set of 5 classes of gestures performed by 19 different persons.

Abstract:
Internet technologies provide a means of implementing data exchange systems incrementally, from connecting two applications on the one machine to implementing an Internetwide information system. Recent advances in XML and related technologies greatly facilitate data extraction and reformatting, thus enabling data from one or more applications to be prepared for use by another. A model, based on these technologies, is described for the exchange of business documents among disparate computer applications used to manage manufacturing operations. The model comprises two parts, the first of which includes a set of code modules, written in Java, for handling requests to retrieve information from one or more Web resources, composing the retrieved data into an XML document and delivering the result. The second part comprises a set of what are termed XSL meta-stylesheets for transforming the retrieved documents into the various forms required by recipient computer applications. Meta-stylesheets are used to transform simple declarative XML documents into more complex stylesheets to add new material to received documents, invert the structure of XML documents and make changes to selected text within the documents.

Abstract:
This research empirically investigates the need for, and the effective design and content of, a proposed mobile application that is targeted at pedestrians and cyclists in Fresno County. The differential effect of the proposed mobile app name and colors on the target audience opinions was examined. Further, app content and features were evaluated for importance and the likelihood of use. This included design appeal, attractiveness, relevance, ease of navigation, usefulness of functions, personalization and customization, message recipients’ attitudes towards message framing, and intended behaviors related to pedestrian, cyclist, and motorist traffic safety practices. Design mobile application features tested included image aesthetics, coherence and organization, and memorability and distinction. Potential engagement with the mobile app was assessed via measuring the users’ perceived enjoyment while using the app. The behavioral intentions to adopt the app and likelihood to recommend the app were assessed. The willingness to pay for purchasing the app was measured. This research provided evidence that a mobile application designed for pedestrians and cyclists is needed, with high intentions for its adoption. Functions, such as Safety Information, Weather Conditions, Guide to Trails, Events for Walkers and Bikers, and Promotional Offers are deemed important by the target population. This research was conducted in an effort to increase active transportation mode utilization and to enhance the safety of vulnerable road users. The public, city administrators, transportation authorities, and policy makers shall benefit from the results of this study by adapting the design and the features that are proposed in this research and were found appealing and useful for the target vulnerable road user groups. The need of the proposed mobile application and its main functions are established, based on the results of this research, which propagates further steps of implementation by city administrators and transportation authorities.
