\n< p style="mso-layout-grid-align: none\; text-autospace: none\;">Title: Fixed-effect controls for slope-based constructs< /span>\nDate: Friday\, October 30\, 2026
\nTime: 9:30 -10:45 AM
\nLocation: via Z oom Meeting
\nMeeting ID: 438 755 1509
\nAbstract: Fixed-effects designs are pervasive in modern research. R esearchers often apply them “as is” to slope-based accounting construc ts (e.g.\, earnings response coefficient\, which is the slope of Y = abnormal returns with respect to X = earnings su rprise\, asymmetric timeliness\, or cost elasticity). However\, fixed effects are insufficient in such settings because they capture variation in Y\, not variation in the focal slope dY/dX. Several recent articles point this out and add group-level and time-specif ic slopes for the construct. However\, subsequent research mostly ignores this solution. We explain how this neglect distorts inferences and undermi nes the logic of designs like difference-in-differences. We further show t hat simple solutions using aggregate state- or industry-level slopes are i nsufficient. They can cause major biases even when the treatment affects a ll firms equally in the focal states or industries. We examine alternative solutions and their potential pitfalls. Our adjustments change published findings.

Many organisms are e xposed to multiple contamination sources when visiting patches that vary i n the amount, timing and toxicity of pesticides used. Yet, environmental r isk assessments typically fail to consider this heterogeneity, in part bec ause of the complexities of estimating exposure to different pesticides at organism-relevant scales. This talk presents pesticides in agriculture as a socio-ecological system with three domains: pesticide use, exposure, an d effect.

What do we inherit from empire? And what survives when colonial histories are transmitted across generati ons\, remain inscribed in places\, and are reworked through relationships?
\nThis talk brings into dialogue two bodies of literary and cultura l inquiry that illuminate different dimensions of colonial afterlives. The first concerns contemporary Portuguese literature by Afro-descendant wome n\, where memory\, postmemory\, historical erasure\, and reparative practi ces reveal how colonial legacies are transmitted across generations. What is inherited extends beyond remembered events: silences\, affects\, attach ments\, displacements\, and contested forms of belonging are reinterpreted by those who inherit histories they did not directly experience. This wor k led me to ask how colonial histories become inheritance—and to conside r the places in which histories of survival\, resistance\, and unequal rel ations unfolded. Memory is carried not only by people and texts\, but also by places.
\nTarrafal and the plantation spaces of São Tomé and P ríncipe offer distinct sites through which material traces\, absences\, s ilences\, and ghosts make imperial afterlives perceptible in the present. Bringing these perspectives together\, I ask: what survives between people ? Under what conditions might inherited histories\, shared vulnerability\, care\, and collective survival become forms of solidarity? The question\, then\, is not only what we inherit\, but what futures we can build togeth er. I approach solidarity not as a legacy of empire\, but as an open quest ion about the relations that survive or emerge from its afterlives.

Topic: Entropy-Driven Design an d Physics-Enforced Neural Network Modeling of Multi-Polymer Solid Electrol ytes for Structural Energy Storage
\nAbstract:
\nStructural en ergy storage requires electrolytes that can both conduct ions and carry me chanical loads\, yet in solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) ionic conductivi ty and mechanical properties are often traded against each other. This pro posal examines configurational entropy\, introduced by blending chemically distinct polymers\, as a design variable to ease this trade-off. Dual-pol ymer electrolytes of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with LiTFSI formed miscible\, single-phase matrices with higher io nic conductivity than single-polymer electrolytes\, and tuning polymer cha in length balanced ionic transport against mechanical integrity. Adding po ly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) to form ternary blends produced more divers e Li+ coordination environments in experiments and molecular dynamics simu lations\, but only two of seven ternary compositions outperformed all sing le- and dual-polymer electrolytes\, indicating that compositional balance governs multifunctional performance. Preliminary five-polymer blends also show promising ionic conductivity\, but the composition space is too large to explore experimentally. The proposed work will develop physics-guided machine learning models\, trained on a consistently measured dataset and i nformed by molecular simulations\, to predict ionic conductivity and mecha nical properties and to guide composition selection. Together\, this work aims to establish how entropy and compositional balance can guide the desi gn of SPEs for structural energy storage.

\nAbstract
\nTitle : The Influence of Identity\, Organizational Factors\, and Assault on Nurs ing Personnel on Nursing Informal Power
\nBackground: Assaults on nursing personnel are a widespread issue across healthcare globally. This form of violence has consequences for patient care\, nurse outcomes\, and organizational operations and reputation. Despite numerous studies evaluat ing risk factors\, risk screening\, consequences\, and interventions to pr omote safety\, there continues to be a gap evaluating the role of various identity factors beyond binary sex and age on the experience of this viole nce. While studies have evaluated the role of structural empowerment as a protective factor\, individual clinician informal power has not been evalu ated as an outcome variable. Informal power reflects the social connection s of a person and the influence these connections have on the surrounding environment.
\nAim: The purpose of this investigation was to evaluat e the role of identity\, organizational factors\, and violence on staff in formal power while also clarifying population-specific needs for victims o f this violence.
\nTheoretical Framework: Intersectionality and a th eoretical synthesis (Theory of Respect in Interpersonal Relations [TRIR]) framed this study. The synthesis blended the Dual Pathway Model and the Th eory of Humanistic Communication in Nursing.
\nMethods: A simultaneo us convergent mixed methods study using cross-sectional\, quantitative des criptive and qualitative descriptive designs. Nurses (n=153) who had exper ienced patient violence completed an online survey. The survey included a demographic questionnaire and three instruments. The relationship between identity\, organizational factors\, violence and informal power was explor ed. A hierarchical regression model determined significant predictors. Qua litative data was coded and analyzed using standard content analysis techn iques.
\nFindings: The following identity factors were found to ha ve a significant relationship with informal power: age (r[151] = .170\, CI [.007\, .324]\, p = .036) and years of experience (r[151] = .255\, CI [.0 96\, .402]\, p = .001. There was a significant relationship between inform al power and unionization (t[151] = -3.015\, p = .003\, d = .67)\, working in a Magnet recognized organization (t[151] = -2.786\, p = .006\, d = .50 )\, working in an academic medical center (t[151] = -2.972\, p = .003)\, a nd hospital size (F[2\,150] = 3.881\, p = .023\, h2 = .049 [CI 0.000\, 0.1 23)]). Local transformational leadership (r[151] = .478 CI [.341\, .595]\, p<.001) and authentic leadership (r[151] = .541\, CI [.414\, .647]\, p<.0 01) also influenced staff informal power. Exposure to verbal violence (t[1 51] = -2.121\, p = .036\, d = .58) and psychological violence (t[151] = -2 .493\, p = .014\, d = .48) were correlated with staff power. Finally\, the re was a relationship between informal power and frequency of verbal viole nce (r[136] = .203\, CI [.032\, .363]\, p = .017). When these variables we re entered into a hierarchical regression model\, a significant model was found (F[9\,128] = 7.873\, p<.001\, R2 = .311). Local authentic leadership ([ALI] b = .368\, p = .007)\, unionization (b = .192\, p = .018)\, and ve rbal violence frequency (b = .151\, p = .043) were significant predictors and explained 31.1% of the variance in informal power. Three themes were i dentified from qualitative data analysis: “Healthcare environments have significant impact on power during and after violent events”\; “Identi ty may influence violence but is not a major driver of power”\; and “W here does one go from here?”.
\nImplications: Environment has a si gnificant influence on informal power and affected outcomes after nurses e xperienced patient violence. Relationality between nurses and local leader s was a significant predictor of power and may be protective of staff. Whe n violence was not responded to effectively by an organization\, nurses re ported less power. Classification of violence may not accurately illustrat e the complexity of violence presentations. Findings suggest nurses develo p tolerance to violence or grit as an adaptive response to patient violenc e. Although quantitative findings were not significant\, qualitative conte nt analysis suggests Hispanic and LGBTQ nurses may require additional supp ort after experiencing violence.
\nConclusion: Although identity was not a major driver of power\, exposure to violence and organizational des ign impacted staff informal power after experiencing violence. These findi ngs support the need for organizations to meaningfully respond to these ev ents to promote the safety and well-being of nurses.

\nAbstract:
\nRiver herring including Ale wife (Alosa pseudoharengus) and Blueback Herring (Alosa aestivalis) migrat e upstream through coastal river systems to reach freshwater spawning habi tats\, and imaging sonar provides a practical way to monitor these movemen ts under poor visibility conditions. In ARIS acoustic videos\, individual fish may change direction\, turn sharply\, overlap with nearby fish\, or t emporarily disappear from detection\, so it is difficult to maintain a con sistent identity and potentially cause the same fish to be counted more th an once. DeepSORT as a well-established appearance-based multi-object trac king method was evaluated on a video as a preliminary benchmark. However\, its reliance on appearance-based association is not well suited to acoust ic fish tracking\, since fish targets exhibit weak and inconsistent appear ance information compared with conventional optical imagery. In this thesi s work\, we proposed a multi-fish tracking framework via four physics-info rmed motion priors. Moving fish candidates are first identified using a pa rticle-based detection method that produces bounding boxes for small movin g objects in the sonar images. These detections are then used as the commo n input to multiple tracking approaches\, including centroid-based associa tion and SORT\, where Kalman filtering and global assignment are used to m aintain fish trajectories across consecutive frames. To improve associatio n during direction changes and other complex movements\, we proposed a mot ion-prior-based tracking method that incorporates four motion cues: direct ion\, velocity\, turning behavior\, and trajectory smoothness. These prior s use recent track history to evaluate whether a new detection is physical ly consistent with the previous movement of a fish and are incorporated in to the track-to-detection association cost before Hungarian matching. The proposed approach is evaluated using manually established fish-event groun d truth to determine whether motion-aware association can improve track co ntinuity and reduce duplicate or missed fish counts compared with conventi onal tracking methods. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method relative to a well-established tracking baseline.\n
