Abstract:
Implantation of deep brain stimulator (DBS) leads for Gilles de Tourette syndrome was first described by Visser-Vanderwalle et al., with a reported 70%–90% decrease in tic frequency.1 Since that time, several targets, including the basal/ganglia and striatum, have been described. The target remains experimental, and in this case, leads were implanted under an investigator-initiated research protocol. Ms. L. reported an excellent intraoperative reduction in the “urge to tic” that persisted for 15 weeks postoperatively, indicating that the leads were well placed. Furthermore, although her tic frequency has increased, it remains improved from baseline and returns to baseline when stimulation is discontinued. Although her response does not represent what her treatment team would consider the “desired medical/therapeutic outcomes,” there is no question that the patient recognizes benefit from her stimulation. In fact, she clearly states that “it’s like I’ve felt a new way and don’t want to go back to the old way.”

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to provide a literary commentary and analysis of the first book of Xenophon's <I>Cyropaedia</I>. The work has traditionally been regarded as an enigma, its subject matter being too diverse and its structure and purpose unclear. Moreover, in contrast with Xenophon's other works and other fourth-century prose literature, the text has been treated as being tedious and having little intrinsic worth. In recent years, however, there has been a resurgence of scholarly interest in the <I>Cyropaedia</I>. James Tatum's <I>Xenophon's Imperial Fiction</I>, Bodil Due's <I>The Cyropaedia</I> and Deborah Gera's <I>Xenophon's</I> <I>Cyropaedia</I> have broken new ground in analysing the work as a whole and bringing it into line with the rest of Xenophon's works. What is lacking in this re-evaluation of the <I>Cyropaedia</I> is a detailed literary commentary on the work. Previous commentaries have dealt primarily with grammar, syntax and textual criticism, or have examined the work as a valuable source for Persian history and ethnography. The thesis focuses on Book 1, approaching it not in terms of one particular genre but as a complex work drawing from all the branches of Greek literature as well as from the author's own knowledge and experiences gained during the course of a very eventful life. The commentary accordingly interprets the <I>Cyropaedia </I>in the context of earlier Greek literature, to show that Xenophon uses and refers back to the works of his literary predecessors to construct a work which is innovative rather than derivative. The importance of Book 1 lies in the way Xenophon introduces the themes and ideas which will be explored in the course of the remaining seven books. Xenophon's portrayal of Cyrus the child in the first book is not only remarkably vivid, it is also a very subtle examination of the successful leader in his youth, of how he seeks to educate himself through undergoing a wide range of experiences, and of the various tactics he uses to make his elders carry out his wishes.

Abstract:
In an effort to understand the ways that students perceive teacher commentary on their papers, I constructed and employed a study in the fall of 2000, sponsored by both the Council of Writing Program Administrators and the National Council for Teachers of English The study involved four trained graduate instructors from The University of Arizona English Department and approximately twenty-five, first-year composition students from a section belonging to each instructor. Specifically, I was curious about the ways that formative evaluation, that is, teacher commentary provided during the drafting stage of the writing process, affected students during their writing processes from a cognitive, emotive, and behavioral perspective. In other words, I was asking if students: (1) understood teacher comments as they were intended; (2) whether certain comments evoked positive or negative emotion in students; (3) based on the comments provided did students choose to revise; and (4) if students did choose to revise, why did they do so and in what way?Questions concerning the way teacher commentary affects students are important ones to ask because the ways that students are affected by feedback can also affect their perception of their abilities and their willingness to perform a task in the future. Equally of import is questioning the way a student comes to the teacher's text. Social psychologists suggest that one's state of mind upon receiving feedback inform the ways in which the feedback received. And finally, it is believed that isolated demographic populations, thanks to the stimuli and mores of their particular era and environment, may react to feedback from authority figures in surprising but similar ways.My research uncovers that students' self-efficacy and perceived locus of control, both tenets of social and cognitive psychology, indeed influence the way that they perceive teacher commentary and the way that they respond behaviorally through revision practices. I also suggest that contemporary students, deluged by media and entertainment, may not be responsive to teacher commentary, especially when it is perceived as negative in ways that writing teachers might not anticipate.

Robinson-Smith, T. "'The Dragon Run' : a travel memoir of Bhutan with critical commentary examining representation of the self in modern travel writing." Thesis, Nottingham Trent University, 2015. http://irep.ntu.ac.uk/id/eprint/27950/.

Full text
Abstract:
The creative component of this dissertation is excerpts from 'The Dragon Run', a travel memoir recounting the author’s experiences living in and running across Bhutan (2006-2008). Aligning itself with the accounts of contemplative travel writers from the West who have spent extended periods in the Himalayan Kingdom, the memoir is as revealing psychologically and temperamentally of the narrator as it is descriptive of the nature and culture of the host country. However, it differs from these accounts in that a distinction is made between the naive newcomer to the country and the more discerning sojourner. It also contrasts thematically in that the narrator’s reflections engage with themes associated with the Kingdom’s drive to modernise before its first parliamentary election: Gross National Happiness, the ‘Last Shangri-La,’ Buddhist ethics, the value of wilderness and the virtue of raising funds to send village children to school. The critical commentary that follows the creative element examines self-revelation in contemporary travel writing, the argument being that a travel book has greater appeal when an interior voyage runs parallel to the outer one. Part I argues that the fictional techniques travel writers commandeer to represent their journeying selves, such as the articulation of thoughts, mingling of dramatic scenes with personal reflection and tracing of a path of learning, endow their protagonists with psychological depth. Part II finds that the ways in which authors have their travelling selves respond to wilderness give insight into their personalities: their spiritual connection with nature, their sadness at its destruction, the solace they draw from close contact. Part III considers the legacy of Orientalism in modern travel writing and argues that balanced treatment of people belonging to other cultures and greater understanding of the self depend on the sensitivity of the traveller to his or her own culture. Provided that the travel writer does not mythologise too freely, self-disclosure enriches the book through arousing readers’ interest as much in the traveller as his or her travels. The narrative strategies that travel writers use to represent the inner lives of their voyaging personas manufacture the interior journey. Study of them informs the decisions the author has made in writing 'The Dragon Run'.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation presents a previously unedited text by one of the most distinguished- yet neglected-Latin writers of the Italian Renaissance, Ercole Strozzi (1471-1508), a poet and administrator in the court of Ferrara. Under the Este Dukes, Ferrara became a major center of literary and artistic patronage. The Latin literary output of the court, however, has received insufficient scholarly scrutiny. The text is a verse funeral elegy of Eleonora of Aragon (1450-1493), the first Duchess of Ferrara. Eleonora was a remarkable woman whose talents and indefatigable efforts on behalf of her husband, her children, and her state, won her accolades both at home and abroad. She also served as a prototype for the remarkable careers of her two daughters, Isabella d'Este, and Beatrice d'Este, who are celebrated for their erudition and patronage of arts and letters. The text is a mirror of the Estense court and reveals to us how its members no doubt saw themselves, at the very peak of its temporal power and the height of its prestige as a center of cultural creativity. It is also important for the striking portrait it presents of Eleonora. Ercole Strozzi chose to call his poem an epicedium, an ancient minor literary genre that had received attention in the two decades prior to its composition, due to the discovery and printing of the silver age Roman poet Statius, whose text includes several epicedia. Strozzi deftly adapts and transcends both his ancient and contemporary models (especially Poliziano), and in the process, creates a new Latin literary genre, the Renaissance epicedium. It is a fine poem, full of both erudition and creativity, and as such is the first fruits of what would be Ercole Strozzi's illustrious poetic career. The work is genuinely worthy of study on both esthetic and historical grounds.

Full text
Abstract:
Proclus is part of a long exegetical tradition that understands Plato and Homer to be in agreement. The Sixth Essay of his Commentary on Plato’s Republic particularly significant because it is the only extant ancient text that attempts to prove the concord of Plato and Homer philosophically. Yet, despite his uniquely reasoned approach, this endeavour suffers from charges of irrationalism. The necessity that drives him to seek this conciliation is thought to come from the pious attachment he has to Homer as an authority rather than the properly philosophical demands of his rational system. The aim of this thesis is to show that Proclus’ need to show Plato and Homer’s agreement is not an irrational adjunct to an otherwise rational outlook, but that it follows from the central doctrines of his philosophy. This will be accomplished through a detailed consideration of Proclus’ doctrine of the poetic ????????. In looking at how Proclus’ reading of Plato in the Sixth Essay is informed by his understanding of ????????, we will see how Homer becomes the means, both of taking the traditional criticisms of Plato’s apparent self-contradiction seriously and also of defending him against them. In looking in turn at how the soul actually experiences the ??????? of Homer’s inspired poetry, it shall become apparent that Homer does not just save the coherence of rational thought in this exterior way, but that his poetry operates as both the possibility and perfection of the rational soul’s various powers.

Abstract:
From Metafiction to Self-reflexive Narration (Theory and Practice of Self-disclosing Fiction in Czech Literature) Mgr. Vladimír Trpka Abstract The doctoral thesis deals with metafiction as a key theoretical concept influencing both theoretical contemplations on self-reflexivity in narrative fiction and interpretation of the development of self-reflexive practice in literature. The main objective, based on an analysis of the most influential theoretical approaches to narrative self-reflexivity, is to propose such concepts of metafiction and self-reflexive narration that could be applied in the analysis of the self-reflexive practice in the Czech narrative fiction. The theoretical part focuses on examining the relationship between metafiction and narrative self- reflexivity. Metafiction is viewed as a concept that has not only replaced the concept of self-conscious novel, but it has also adapted it to the postmodern conception of fiction. The concept of fictionality in the theoretical concept of metafiction is directly related to postmodern discourse in which this concept was born. Consequently, an explicitly formulated and/or hidden relationship with constructivist philosophy of language, performativity, and linguistic nature of reality is found in the existing approaches to metafiction. Thus if the...

Abstract:
Self-commentary plays a fundamental role in Meneghello’s work. It is part of an intrinsically autobiographical prose, where the individual dimension, constantly dropped into the collective one, is charged with a documentary function. The self-commentary adds considerations of a predominantly linguistic nature, aimed at providing the referent with the most precise and complete representation possible. These considerations are distributed on various levels: directly in the main text, in the endnotes, in the author’s prefaces and afterwords, but also outside the physical space of the individual volume. The contribution investigates the variety and complexity of this self-exegetic addition, highlighting its capacity to produce connections between different and distant textual places, even transcending the boundaries of the single work, with the enrichment of perspective that this entails.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter shifts the attention toward another point of entanglement, namely the construction of the travelers’ self as a changing narrative category within the travel narratives. Drawing on recent research around the complex development of the notion of the self in the seventeenth century, the argument is that the self is unstable and multiple; it mediates between the space of reception (France) and the space described (the Islands). The self thus becomes a site where the effect of otherness can be traced: it becomes a narrative locus of unsettlement where the impact of early island society and its people is visible on several levels. The first section is devoted to the conditions governing travel writing in order to understand how the travelers used this strategically in their representations of the islands in terms of both distance and embodiment. The second section centers on Labat’s travelogue in order to analyze how that embodiment led to the construction of an experimental self influenced by the islands: the individual traveler’s experience becomes a way to think through the social body’s experience. The third section examines how the self negotiates encounters with others. By interrogating the figure of the commentary, it questions the construction of a discourse of ambivalence, bordering on sentimentality, with regard to enslaved peoples and enslavement as an institution. The last section looks closer at engagements with Indigenous peoples in terms of an anxiety of influence: the narratives configure that influence through style. The travelers, it claims, both underscore and distance themselves to uphold an intermediary position.

Abstract:
AbstractAdolescents are immersed in digital technologies, raising concerns among parents, teachers, scholars, and policymakers on how use may be affecting adolescent development. The affordances of digital technologies bear special relevance to declines in self-esteem and body image perceptions that occur during adolescence. One element of digital technologies that may be especially relevant for self-esteem and body image is the occurrence of digital cruelty, in which digital technologies can be used to transmit and reflect negative or hurtful commentary and feedback. This review considers how digital cruelty may unfold in digital spaces and how it may relate to self-esteem and body image concerns, with special attention given to how digital cruelty may occur in the appearance domain. Past research has demonstrated that appearance-oriented digital cruelty may be rare, heterogeneous in how it occurs, and not always linked to poorer self-esteem and greater body image concerns. However, much work is to be done that considers the nuances of how digital cruelty can occur and the individual differences and contexts in which negative effects may manifest. We discuss areas of future research and conclude with recommendations on how to combat digital cruelty as it occurs among adolescents.

Abstract:
In this paper, dynamical systems analysis and optimization tools are used to investigate the local dynamic stability of periodic task-related motions of simple models of the lower-body musculoskeletal apparatus and to seek parameter values guaranteeing their stability. In particular, the dynamics of a two-link model of a leg undergoing periodic excitation through one or several contractile muscle elements corresponding to a simple knee-bending motion is studied. Several muscle models incorporating various active and passive elements are included and the notion of self-stabilization of the rigid-body dynamics through the imposition of muscle-like actuation is investigated. It is found that self-stabilization depends both on muscle architecture and configuration as well as the properties of the reference motion. Additionally, antagonistic muscles (flexor-extensor muscle couples) are shown to enable stable motions over larger ranges in parameter space and that even the simplest neuronal feedback mechanism can stabilize the repetitive motions. The work provides a review of the necessary concepts of stability and a commentary on existing incorrect results that have appeared in the literature on muscle self-stabilization.

Abstract:
Primary and secondary nuclear containments serve the critical function of providing an external protection and a leak proof boundary for containing radiation in nuclear power plants. Reinforced concrete containment in a nuclear power plant typically has a cylindrical wall and a spherical dome. Within the cylindrical shell, it is common to use different hoop reinforcing ratios at different elevations, in order to optimize the design. Reinforced concrete containments are designed for thermal effects, generally following methods provided in the committee reports of ACI 307 for chimneys or ACI 349 commentary for nuclear concrete structures. The behavior of concrete structures under thermal effects has been studied for decades. It is well know that stresses resulting from thermal effects are self-relieving and that magnitudes of thermal forces and moments are directly related to the reinforcement within the concrete member. In particular, for a given thermal and mechanical load combination, more reinforcing steel the concrete section contains, larger thermal forces/moments will be observed with correspondingly less deformations. The conventional approach provided in aforementioned building codes is to solve the equilibrium of a given reinforced concrete section with a predetermined reinforcement configuration. However, no research has been conducted to study thermal forces and moments in transition zones interfacing two regions with different reinforcement configurations. The compatibility at the interface between two regions with different reinforcement introduces further redistribution of thermal forces and moments within the transition zone, which should be considered in the design. In this paper, a comprehensive study has been carried out using the closed form mechanical solution, in order to evaluate the redistribution of thermal forces and moments at a conceptual interface within a reinforced concrete cylindrical containment, between two regions with different reinforcement configurations. Based on this, consideration for thermal design at such an interface is provided. A practical example is presented at the end of the paper to illustrate the use of the proposed design method, followed by the conclusion.

Abstract:
This study develops a composite measure of primary care experience, using the Commonwealth Fund's 2010 International Health Policy Survey (IHP), applied on eleven high income OECD countries, and based on user self-report. The multidimensional measure is composed of answers regarding specific primary care domains, including: accessibility, continuous care, coordination of care, and provider communication and cultural competence. The overall measure of primary care experience is tested and validated, including an exploration of population characteristics (e.g. sex, age, income, migration status, insurance type) that are associated with higher or lower assessments of the receipt of primary care. It explicitly assesses the influence of demographic, socioeconomic, health need, and health system variables, and includes important interaction terms between these variables. Based on the results, the measure's potential suitability for use in Latin America and the Caribbean is assessed. This includes commentary on possibilities for comparison between LAC and the OECD countries covered by the Commonwealth. The results suggest that it is possible to develop a composite measure of user primary care experience based on survey data. In general, the primary care measure developed performed relatively well in terms of discriminating between people who have good versus poor experiences with their health system.
