Abstract:

Research has shown a relationship between having a strict father upbringing, defined by rules reinforcement and self-discipline beliefs, and the presence of high levels of social dominance orientation (SDO) and right-wing authoritarianism (RWA). The relationship between these variables and issue choice has been established, but no study has explored the connection between parental upbringing and moral foundations. Furthermore, the connection to political candidate choice has not been shown. This study investigated the relationship between people's parental upbringing beliefs, their adult moral

Cuando los miembros de una sociedad tienen que tomar una decisión sobre un conjunto de alternativas suelen usar ciertas reglas que tratan de alcanzar un acuerdo entre sus diferentes intereses. Estas reglas se suelen denominar mecanismos de votación, procedimientos de elección social o, simplemente, elecciones. Las reglas de votación definen escenarios en los que los miembros de la sociedad interaccionan y tratan de obtener el mejor resultado de acuerdo con sus preferencias. Esta tesis doctoral está dedicada al estudio de los incentivos estratégicos de los participantes (votantes y candidatos)

Abstract:

Do candidates' ethnic backgrounds matter in elections? More precisely, do they change voters' perceptions about the candidates, and ultimately change their vote choice? If so, in what way and how much? And perhaps more importantly, why? This doctoral thesis attempts to answer these questions using experimental and observational election surveys in Japan and Canada. In the experiments, I aim to estimate causal effects of candidates' ethnic minority status on vote choice, test three relevant theories by examining three moderated effects, and propose two causal mechanisms.

Abstract:

How does digital media and online news, especially blogs, influence support for women congressional and presidential candidates? From work on traditional print and television news we know women are framed differently than men, and are more likely to be framed as women (appearance, clothing, mother or wife, marital status, sex, gendered issues). I argue the transition to digital media (blogs and online news) is exacerbating these trends, increasing gender stereotype opinions of women candidates in the mass public, among both men and women. In turn I find gender stereotype opinions combined with

This thesis examines several regions of star formation selected because they were believed to be the youngest of their type. The sources studied are examples of low, medium and high-mass star formation, namely B335, NGC2024 and DR21(OH). High-resolution mapping of the thermal dust emission from B335 shows it to contain a dense core elongated in a direction perpendicular to the orientation of the bipolar outflow. The core is sufficiently gravitationally bound to be able to collimate an initially isotropic wind into the observed bipolar structure. The presence of an evolved outflow from a source

Abstract:

Craniosynostosis is a disorder characterized by the premature fusing of cranial sutures in an infant. Premature closure of these sutures can lead to detrimental consequences on the development of a child. The two broad categories of craniosynostosis are classified as syndromic and nonsyndromic. Nonsyndromic craniosynostosis involves only the fusion of one or more sutures, whereas syndromic craniosynostosis involves other abnormalities throughout the body of the affected individual. Two of the families analyzed in this study were of the syndromic nature, and known FGFR mutations were discovered

Imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that silences one allele of a gene, so that expression in one or more cell types is exclusively monoallelic, and dependent on parental origin. Approaches used to identify novel imprinted genes rely on characteristic features such as the clustering of imprinted genes, or their association with differentially methylated CpG islands. An imprinted tumour suppressor gene involved in pathogenesis of neuroblastoma is believed to lie within chromosome 1p36. In this region, a search was initiated for imprinted genes in the vicinity of the imprinted gene <i>TP73.</
