Existing theories attribute these developments primarily to the strength of partisan identity, yet identity strength alone cannot explain how partisan identities acquire political meaning or why some partisans come to view politics as a collective struggle over their party’s status, future, and place in society. This dissertation addresses that gap by developing and testing a new theoretical framework: partisan group consciousness. Drawing on the group consciousness tradition in race and ethnic politics, social identity theory, and theories of elite communication, I define partisan group consciousness as shared beliefs about a party’s status, what the party and its members are owed, and the need for collective political action on its behalf. I argue that partisan identities become politically consequential not simply because individuals identify strongly with a party, but because they develop shared beliefs about what their partisan identity means. I evaluate this framework using a multi-method research design based on the 2024 Cooperative Election Study, combining a measurement and validation study, two survey experiments, and an observational analysis. The analyses establish partisan group consciousness as a distinct psychological construct that is empirically separate from partisan identity and demonstrate that measures of racial, religious, gender, and partisan group consciousness share a common latent structure, providing evidence for a general theory of group consciousness extending beyond race and ethnicity. They further show that partisan group consciousness is responsive to elite rhetoric, shapes emotional responses to political messages, and is concentrated among socially sorted and minority partisans, although it does not independently predict political participation beyond partisan identity. Together, these findings establish partisan group consciousness as a measurable, eliteresponsive, and emotionally consequential dimension of partisan psychology. By distinguishing identity strength from identity meaning, this dissertation extends theories of expressive partisanship, generalizes group consciousness beyond racial and ethnic identities, and identifies one psychological pathway through which elite communication transforms partisan identities into collective political commitments. These contributions deepen our understanding of affective polarization, campaign communication, and the conditions under which democratic competition comes to be experienced as conflict between social groups.","lang":""}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://repositories.lib.utexas.edu/handle/2152/137577","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"mds","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":0,"created":"2026-10-07T21:35:54Z","registered":"2026-10-07T21:36:29Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T21:36:54Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"tdl.utl","type":"clients"}}}},{"id":"10.26153/tsw/64866","type":"dois","attributes":{"doi":"10.26153/tsw/64866","identifiers":[{"identifier":"https://hdl.handle.net/2152/137578","identifierType":"uri"}],"creators":[{"name":"Su, Lin, Ph.

However, substantial challenges remain regarding how to strategically deploy charging infrastructure, coordinate charging demand across diverse EV groups, and support large-scale transportation electrification without degrading transportation service quality or grid reliability. To address these challenges, this dissertation investigates public-private charging infrastructure planning and grid-responsive smart-charging strategies for mixed EV groups, with a focus on SAEV fleets and household EVs (HH EVs) in the Austin, Texas region. Using the agent-based POLARIS simulation platform integrated with charging infrastructure and optimization modules, this work evaluates how charging infrastructure deployment, charging coordination, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) strategies influence charging-system performance, fleet operations, economic outcomes, and power-grid impacts. To support growing charging demand while saving deployment costs, this dissertation first develops and models a public-private (PP) charging infrastructure framework that co-locates fleet-owned chargers with publicly accessible EV charging stations (EVCS). By enabling charging-port sharing between fleet and HH EV users and site-sharing with existing public EVCS sites, the proposed framework improves charger accessibility and use while avoiding redundant charging infrastructure investments. Simulation results for the 6-county Austin region with a SAEV geofence of 81-square-miles in central Austin suggest that just 200 SAEVs (each with a total driving range of 250 miles) can serve 17,000 ride requests per day with the addition of 115 direct-current fast-charging (DCFC, at 50 kW) plugs to 23 existing publicly available stations (primarily at Austin shopping centers, schools, and residential areas along freeways), assuming first-come first-served at all chargers (with Level 2 cords only available to HH EV owners). The added chargers enable adequate fleet charging while improving HH EV charging within the geofence, allowing HH EVs to experience nearly immediate charging service, with an average wait time of just 0.5 minutes, compared to 2.8 minutes if they rely on existing public EVCS. The average SAEV traveled 330 miles/day (29% empty), served over 92 trip requests (with average passenger travel distances of 4.3 miles), and ride-pooling/sharing was common (average vehicle occupancy over 1.7). The average SAEV was charged 2.7 times a day (for 2.4 hours per session), mostly in the late morning and late afternoon. The average new DCFC charger served 4.8 EVs per day (with SAEVs accounting for 90% of use), and most DCFC chargers offered immediate (no-wait) charging, except for 2 stations along the I-35 and MoPac freeways (which averaged over 8 minutes of wait time to begin charging). The PPP co-location strategy is projected to lower fleet owners’ initial EVCS construction costs by 12% (to $5.3 million) thanks to cord-sharing (avoiding charger duplication) and another 11% (to $4.65 million) through public-access incentives for chargers open to public EV users, while lowering (average) SAEV wait times to just 3.1 minutes (versus 10.7 minutes if SAEV managers have to build and operate their own EVCS, which is estimated to cost $5.81 million). As newly deployed EVCS and expanding EV fleets increase electricity demand and introduce additional pressure on grid management, this dissertation further develops an integrated smart-charging and vehicle-to-grid optimization framework for coordinated charging and discharging of diverse EV groups (including fleet EVs plus HH EVs) under time-varying electricity pricing and grid conditions. Five charging strategies were evaluated, including last-minute charging (LMC), demand-aware charging (DAC), coordinated unidirectional smart-charging (V1G), fleet-only V2G, and combined fleet-plus-household V2G participation. The DAC strategy coordinates charging with time-varying fleet use and practical charging availability, while V1G and V2G strategies incorporate electricity prices, grid conditions, and emission damages into charging decisions. Under DAC, less than 2% of charging occurring between midnight and 8 AM, reflecting limited EVCS staffing during these hours. Fleet charging is instead concentrated during daytime and evening hours, with about 21% occurring between 11 AM and 1 PM and 33% between 5 and 9 PM. In contrast, grid-responsive V1G shifts SAEV fleet charging toward grid-favorable periods, concentrating roughly 36% of daily fleet charging during late-night hours (midnight to 2 AM) and up to 28% during the mid-day (11 AM to 1 PM), while charging between 6 and 8 AM remains minimal and evening charging between 6 and 9 PM accounts for up to 20% of daily charging. Fleet-only V2G preserves these coordinated charging patterns while enabling targeted fleet discharging during periods of power-grid stress, when Texas experiences large intra-day variations electricity prices (e.g., during extreme weather events). Allowing HH EV participation in a V2G program further expands EV battery discharge capacity and temporal coverage, particularly during evening peak periods, when SAEV fleets may be busy serving ride-hailing demands. Smart charging’s environmental benefits are also pronounced in the simulations. Across various electricity-pricing structures, a V1G strategy delivers 52 to 55 kg of CO₂ per SAEV-day, while the Fleet-V2G strategy brings CO₂ emissions below 50 kg/SAEV/day. Combined-V2G (with both SAEVs and HH EVs helping protect the grid) broadens these benefits, producing another 40% or 4 tons of CO₂ savings per day. Similar savings are observed for NO[subscript x] and SO₂ damages. Results suggest that operationally responsive charging coordinates energy demand with feet use and practical charging availability, while grid-responsive charging strategies improve the temporal alignment of EV energy demand with power supply systems and pollutant-related damage costs, although realized benefits depend greatly on pricing structures, vehicle availability, and deployment of V2G infrastructure. The results suggest a practical progression in charging coordination. DAC provides an accessible near-term strategy by improving charging schedules around fleet operations without requiring major charging-infrastructure upgrades, while V1G adds grid-responsive coordination without requiring bidirectional charging capability. As V2G technologies mature and EV adoption expands, fleet-V2G and combined-V2G strategies offer additional opportunities to enhance grid flexibility and support renewable energy integration in the long-term. Taken together, this dissertation demonstrates the importance of jointly planning charging infrastructure, transportation operations, and grid-responsive charging strategies within integrated transportation-energy systems. The proposed frameworks improve charging accessibility, reduce infrastructure costs, enhance grid responsiveness, and support large-scale transportation electrification. These findings offer valuable insights for transportation planners, charging-network operators, utilities, and policymakers seeking to develop more resilient and sustainable urban mobility systems.","lang":""}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://repositories.lib.utexas.edu/handle/2152/137578","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"mds","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":0,"created":"2026-10-07T21:35:54Z","registered":"2026-10-07T21:36:31Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T21:36:54Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"tdl.utl","type":"clients"}}}},{"id":"10.26153/tsw/64864","type":"dois","attributes":{"doi":"10.26153/tsw/64864","identifiers":[{"identifier":"https://hdl.handle.net/2152/137576","identifierType":"uri"}],"creators":[{"name":"Alkan, Oguzhan","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"0000-0002-3846-5335","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]}],"titles":[{"lang":"","title":"Barriers to inclusion : three essays on voter evaluations of Muslim candidates"}],"publisher":"The University of Texas at Austin","container":{},"publicationYear":2026,"subjects":[{"subject":"Candidate evaluation","lang":""},{"subject":"Muslim representation","lang":""},{"subject":"Minority representation","lang":""},{"subject":"Party perceptions","lang":""},{"subject":"Voter discrimination","lang":""},{"subject":"Survey experiments","lang":""}],"contributors":[{"name":"The University of Texas at Austin","contributorType":"DataManager","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"The University of Texas at Austin","contributorType":"HostingInstitution","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Somer-Topcu, Zeynep","contributorType":"RelatedPerson","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]}],"dates":[{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Accepted"},{"date":"2026-08","dateType":"Created"},{"date":"2026-08","dateType":"Issued"},{"date":"August 202","dateType":"Submitted"},{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Updated"}],"language":"en","types":{"schemaOrg":"Thesis","resourceTypeGeneral":"Dissertation","citeproc":"thesis","bibtex":"phdthesis","ris":"THES","resourceType":"Thesis"},"relatedIdentifiers":[],"relatedItems":[],"sizes":[],"formats":["application/pdf"],"version":null,"rightsList":[],"descriptions":[{"descriptionType":"Abstract","description":"This dissertation examines how voters evaluate Muslim candidates and how those evaluations shape the parties that field them, across three experimental studies conducted with voters in England.

In the second, I show that when Muslim candidates take positions voters do not expect of them, those positions are judged less sincere. This sincerity discount is concentrated on the domains where Muslim identity carries a strong policy expectation and marks a limit on policy congruence as a remedy. In the third, I show that minority nominations shift party perceptions leftward, an effect concentrated among particular parties and domains rather than attaching to every Muslim nomination, so the perceptual costs party elites fear are real but conditional.

Membranes are dynamic structures that are continuously reorganized and reshaped through interactions with cellular machinery. Recently, liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) has emerged as another organizing principle in cells. Although initially observed in membrane-less compartments, LLPS is increasingly recognized as a key component of many membrane-associated processes. Despite evidence that biomolecular condensates formed through LLPS influence membrane organization and morphology, the biophysical mechanisms underlying condensate-membrane interactions remain poorly understood. In this work, I use coarse grained molecular dynamics simulations to investigate how condensates formed by intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) interact with lipid membranes. I first model the RGG domain of LAF 1, a well characterized phase separating protein, on homogeneous POPC bilayers and demonstrate that condensation occurs spontaneously. I show that default Martini force field parameters fail to reproduce liquid like behavior. Therefore, through systematic tuning, I identify a scaling factor for protein-protein interactions that captures condensate fluidity. Using these parameters, I explore how membrane charge density modulates condensation and find that reducing protein-protein interaction strength leads to condensate dissolution at sufficient charge. Based on these data, I propose a model of regulation of condensation on membranes which relies on a balance of protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions. Next, I investigate transbilayer interactions by placing RGG condensates on opposing sides of the membrane and observe stable coupling consistent with experiment. I find that coupling is inhibited by condensate induced membrane curvature but can be rescued by suppressing membrane curvature. Analysis of lipid entropy reveals that reduced lipid translational mobility dominates condensate induced ordering, while enhanced lipid tail interdigitation beneath condensates supports an entropically driven mechanism for transbilayer coupling. Additionally, I see enhanced lipid interdigitation beneath both single and coupled condensates, supporting the assertion that condensate coupling minimizes the total area subjected to transverse packing. Finally, I propose extensions of this work toward greater physiological relevance by incorporating lipid heterogeneity and an investigation of curvature generation mechanisms. Together, this work contributes to our understanding of how biomolecular condensates interact with cellular membranes and highlights coarse grained molecular dynamics for the study of condensate-membrane systems.","lang":""}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://repositories.lib.utexas.edu/handle/2152/137575","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"mds","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":0,"created":"2026-10-07T21:35:53Z","registered":"2026-10-07T21:36:26Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T21:36:52Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"tdl.utl","type":"clients"}}}},{"id":"10.26153/tsw/64862","type":"dois","attributes":{"doi":"10.26153/tsw/64862","identifiers":[{"identifier":"https://hdl.handle.net/2152/137574","identifierType":"uri"}],"creators":[{"name":"Duncan-Buchanan, Ashli","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]}],"titles":[{"lang":"","title":"Looking for a local guide : a qualitative case study of mentoring in Texas"}],"publisher":"The University of Texas at Austin","container":{},"publicationYear":2026,"subjects":[{"subject":"Qualitative research","lang":""},{"subject":"Teacher identity","lang":""},{"subject":"Professional norms","lang":""},{"subject":"Novice teachers","lang":""},{"subject":"Teacher mentor","lang":""}],"contributors":[{"name":"The University of Texas at Austin","contributorType":"DataManager","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"The University of Texas at Austin","contributorType":"HostingInstitution","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Woulfin, Sarah","contributorType":"RelatedPerson","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]}],"dates":[{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Accepted"},{"date":"2026-08","dateType":"Created"},{"date":"2026-08","dateType":"Issued"},{"date":"August 202","dateType":"Submitted"},{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Updated"}],"language":null,"types":{"schemaOrg":"Thesis","resourceTypeGeneral":"Dissertation","citeproc":"thesis","bibtex":"phdthesis","ris":"THES","resourceType":"Thesis"},"relatedIdentifiers":[],"relatedItems":[],"sizes":[],"formats":["application/pdf"],"version":null,"rightsList":[],"descriptions":[{"descriptionType":"Abstract","description":"Currently, the teaching profession is struggling to recruit and retain teachers.

It is based on research conducted in the lower Falémé Valley (eastern Senegal), which preserves a major continuous archaeological sequence, particularly during Marine Isotope Stage 2 (29-14 ka), a period of arid and unstable climate marked elsewhere in Africa by a significant depositional hiatus.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcavations at the sites of Toumboura VII and Toumboura V-a (dated between 20 and 17 ka), carried out as part of this dissertation, have yielded rich assemblages documenting a previously poorly known local phase situated between the Middle Stone Age (MSA) and the Later Stone Age (LSA). These assemblages combine microlithic elements in quartz and chert with larger artifacts in greywacke and quartzite sandstone, reflecting a well-structured raw material economy. The toolkits, notably including scrapers, denticulates, and notches, both continue local MSA traditions and anticipate the LSA, as evidenced by the appearance of segments and the increasing importance of microlithism. The techno-economic coherence of these assemblages rules out the hypothesis of palimpsests, in agreement with the geomorphological context and sedimentological analyses. These results support the interpretation of this phase not as a simple intermediate, but as a true transitional phase between the MSA and LSA, documented here for the first time in a robust manner in West Africa, as has long been proposed for southern Africa.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA third assemblage complements the dataset, from layer 2 of Ravin Blanc X (dated to around 9 ka), characterized by a fireplace associated with a quartz knapping workshop. The study of these remains highlights the diversification and increasing complexity of LSA behaviors during the Early Holocene.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore broadly, this work underscores the complexity and diversity of West African techno-cultural trajectories, which are difficult to reconcile with the conventional tripartite framework of the African Paleolithic. It emphasizes the need for further interdisciplinary research and the identification of well-dated sequences in order to better understand the tempo and drivers of cultural transformations in West Africa, and ultimately to propose the definition of regional facies grounded in local archaeological realities.\u003c/p\u003e"}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://archive-ouverte.unige.ch/unige:196218","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"api","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":0,"created":"2026-10-01T21:30:03Z","registered":"2026-10-01T21:30:03Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T21:30:05Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"ethz.unigenf","type":"clients"}}}},{"id":"10.5281/zenodo.23222619","type":"dois","attributes":{"doi":"10.5281/zenodo.23222619","identifiers":[{"identifier":"oai:zenodo.org:23222619","identifierType":"oai"}],"creators":[{"nameType":"Personal","affiliation":["Philosophische Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn"],"givenName":"Franziska","familyName":"Mathäus","name":"Mathäus, Franziska","nameIdentifiers":[]}],"titles":[{"title":"Legale Wege und Alternativen für Minor Attracted Persons (MAPs): Umgang mit sexuellen Bedürfnissen und der Einfluss der Persönlichkeit"}],"publisher":"Zenodo","container":{},"publicationYear":2026,"subjects":[{"subject":"Minor Attracted Persons"},{"subject":"sexuelle Stimuli"},{"subject":"legale sexuelle Alternativen"},{"subject":"illegale sexuelle Alternativen"},{"subject":"sexuelle Zwanghaftigkeit"},{"subject":"moralische Inkongruenz"},{"subject":"Persönlichkeit"}],"contributors":[{"nameType":"Personal","affiliation":["LVR-Universitätsklinik Essen, Kliniken/Institut der Universität Duisburg-Essen, Institut für Forensische Psychiatrie und Sexualforschung"],"givenName":"Johannes","familyName":"Fuß","name":"Fuß, Johannes","nameIdentifiers":[],"contributorType":"Supervisor"},{"nameType":"Personal","affiliation":["LVR-Universitätsklinik Essen, Kliniken/Institut der Universität Duisburg-Essen, Institut für Forensische Psychiatrie und Sexualforschung"],"givenName":"Jeanne","familyName":"Desbuleux","name":"Desbuleux, Jeanne","nameIdentifiers":[],"contributorType":"RelatedPerson"}],"dates":[{"date":"2026","dateType":"Issued"}],"language":"de","types":{"schemaOrg":"Thesis","resourceTypeGeneral":"Dissertation","citeproc":"thesis","bibtex":"phdthesis","ris":"THES","resourceType":""},"relatedIdentifiers":[{"relationType":"IsVersionOf","relatedIdentifier":"10.5281/zenodo.23193268","relatedIdentifierType":"DOI"}],"relatedItems":[],"sizes":[],"formats":[],"version":null,"rightsList":[],"descriptions":[{"descriptionType":"Abstract","description":"Die vorliegende Studie untersucht, welche legalen und illegalen sexuellen Stimuli Minor Attracted Persons (MAPs) nutzen, wie sie diese subjektiv bewerten und in welchem Zusammenhang deren Nutzung mit Persönlichkeitsmerkmalen, moralischer Inkongruenz und sexueller Zwanghaftigkeit steht.

Instead, it posits that macroscopic gravity emerges from underlying quantum covariance among multiple fields, collectively reproducing observed curvature without exotic matter. This perspective aligns with ongoing efforts in quantum gravity and suggests new avenues for understanding the quantum structure of spacetime. Mathematical stability is ensured by the covariant superposition and invariance of the total phase field, yielding consistent results across diverse galactic environments. Guardrail conditions (H ≥ 0, det \u003e 0) confirm numerical stability.\n\n \n\n    \n\nSix-Field’s v5.7.2 offers a theoretically cohesive and empirically robust alternative to conventional gravitational models. Its parameter-free prediction of galactic velocities (RMSE 31.12 km/s, 175/175 convergence, covariance 0.008 with DESI DR1) without dark matter hypotheses demonstrates strong predictive capacity.

The covariance with DESI DR1 remains 0.008.\n\n    \n\nKey version history (corrected):\n\nv5.5 (2025-06-25): Ax_eff=132, global RMS 33.71 km/s, legacy eps=0.00905, κ=3.5.\n\nv5.6 Gold: RMS 33.71 km/s locked, covariance 0.9982.\n\nv5.7: eps_cov=0.008, κ^c=3.35, r_cov=450 kpc, F_cov introduced; predicted RMSE 32.85 km/s.\n\nv5.7.2 (Data Lock 15 Mar 2026): Measured RMSE 31.12 km/s, all legacy errors corrected (0.008/ 3.35 / −2E−13), Modules 033–204 regenerated.\n\n \n\n    \n\nSix-Field’s challenges the assumption that gravity is exclusively a local geometric property. Instead, it posits that macroscopic gravity emerges from underlying quantum covariance among multiple fields, collectively reproducing observed curvature without exotic matter. This perspective aligns with ongoing efforts in quantum gravity and suggests new avenues for understanding the quantum structure of spacetime. Mathematical stability is ensured by the covariant superposition and invariance of the total phase field, yielding consistent results across diverse galactic environments. Guardrail conditions (H ≥ 0, det \u003e 0) confirm numerical stability.\n\n \n\n    \n\nSix-Field’s v5.7.2 offers a theoretically cohesive and empirically robust alternative to conventional gravitational models. Its parameter-free prediction of galactic velocities (RMSE 31.12 km/s, 175/175 convergence, covariance 0.008 with DESI DR1) without dark matter hypotheses demonstrates strong predictive capacity. This emergent spacetime paradigm, grounded in multi-field coherence and screened by F_cov(r), has the potential to reshape our understanding of gravitational dynamics at galactic scales."}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.23205961","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"api","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":1,"created":"2026-10-07T07:49:39Z","registered":"2026-10-07T07:49:40Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T21:07:37Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"cern.zenodo","type":"clients"}}}},{"id":"10.5281/zenodo.23222919","type":"dois","attributes":{"doi":"10.5281/zenodo.23222919","identifiers":[],"creators":[{"nameType":"Personal","affiliation":["ndependent Researcher"],"givenName":"Kenji","familyName":"Yoshida","name":"Yoshida, Kenji","nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifierScheme":"ORCID","nameIdentifier":"0009-0009-7215-6753"}]}],"titles":[{"title":"The Universe as a Dynamic Relational  Structure"}],"publisher":"Zenodo","container":{},"publicationYear":2026,"subjects":[{"subject":"Dynamic Relational Structure"},{"subject":"Dynamic State Equilibrium"},{"subject":"Gravity"},{"subject":"Cosmic Expansion"},{"subject":"Dark Matter"},{"subject":"Dark Energy"},{"subject":"Emergent Space"},{"subject":"Information"},{"subject":"Relational Change"},{"subject":"Cosmic Emergence"},{"subject":"Structure Formation"},{"subject":"Persistence"},{"subject":"Cosmology"},{"subject":"Universe"},{"subject":"Cosmology and Physics"},{"subject":"Astrophysics"},{"subject":"Theoretical Physics"},{"subject":"Complex Systems"},{"subject":"Information Theory"}],"contributors":[],"dates":[{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Issued"}],"language":"en","types":{"schemaOrg":"Thesis","resourceTypeGeneral":"Dissertation","citeproc":"thesis","bibtex":"phdthesis","ris":"THES","resourceType":""},"relatedIdentifiers":[{"relationType":"HasVersion","relatedIdentifier":"10.5281/zenodo.23222920","relatedIdentifierType":"DOI"}],"relatedItems":[],"sizes":[],"formats":[],"version":null,"rightsList":[{"rightsIdentifierScheme":"SPDX","rightsUri":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","schemeUri":"https://spdx.org/licenses/","rights":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International","rightsIdentifier":"cc-by-4.0"}],"descriptions":[{"descriptionType":"Abstract","description":"本論文では、宇宙を、あらかじめ存在する空間の中に固定された物体が集まったものとしてではなく、動的な関係構造として捉える概念的枠組みを提案する。 宇宙における引力的作用と膨張に関係する作用 は、必ずしも同じ大きさで相殺される固定的な均衡状態として理解する必要はない。むしろ、それらの関係によって形成される宇宙全体の状態が、変化しながら維持される動的な状態均衡として捉えられる可能性がある。 この観点では、ダークマターは主として引力的な構造形成側に関係し、ダークエネルギーは宇宙の膨張・空間的拡張側に関係するものとして位置づけられる。ただし、両者を単純な「引力対斥力」の対立として捉えるのではなく、物質界を含む宇宙全体の状態を形成する異なる側面として考える。 したがって、宇宙における均衡は静止を意味しない。宇宙は膨張し、物質は重力によって凝集し、構造は形成され、持続し、変化する。それにもかかわらず、宇宙は一つの動的システムとして継続している。この意味で、宇宙の均衡は変化の中で維持される均衡として理解することができる。 また本論文では、この関係論的宇宙像を情報概念と結びつける。 I ∝ Δℛ ここで I は情報、Δℛ は関係性の動的な変化を表す。 この枠組みでは、宇宙における関係性の変化が、空間、情報、構造、物質、そして新しい構造の創発へと連続してつながる可能性がある。 本論文は確立された物理理論に取って代わるものではなく、概念的枠組みとして提示される。その目的は、引力、膨張、空間、物質、情報、持続性、そして創発を、共通する動的関係論の視点から捉える可能性を探究することである。"},{"descriptionType":"Abstract","description":"This paper proposes a conceptual framework for understanding the universe not as a collection of fixed objects existing within a pre-existing space, but as a dynamic relational structure. Gravitational and expansion-related effects do not necessarily have to be understood as a fixed equilibrium in which equal and opposite forces permanently cancel each other.

Integrating CC theory with developmental and social psychology, I examine links among CC components and how cultural identity and school and family ethnic-racial socialization predict CC, considering societal positioning. Drawing on four quantitative studies with adolescents, teachers, and emerging adults, findings show that critical reflection and motivation were often linked to action, though this link did not persist over time. Cultural identity was uniquely related to CC, while school and family socialization showed differential associations, with practices addressing inequities linked to higher CC. Associations were largely consistent, though some varied by youth’s societal positioning. Findings highlight contextually grounded CC approaches and support for families and educators in fostering critical dialogue and inclusive identity narratives."}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://opendata.uni-halle.de//handle/1981185920/127658","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"mds","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":0,"created":"2026-10-07T20:00:15Z","registered":"2026-10-07T20:00:50Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T20:00:50Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"zbmed.ulbhalle","type":"clients"}}}},{"id":"10.25673/125721","type":"dois","attributes":{"doi":"10.25673/125721","identifiers":[{"identifier":"urn:nbn:de:gbv:3:4-1981185920-1276564","identifierType":"URN"},{"identifier":"1985838524","identifierType":"ppn"}],"creators":[{"name":"Kling, Anna","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]}],"titles":[{"title":"Die Wirksamkeit verschiedener Trainingsinterventionen auf die neuromuskuläre Funktion der Hüftabduktoren im Laufsport : eine quasi-randomisierte Studie"}],"publisher":"Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt","container":{},"publicationYear":2026,"subjects":[{"subject":"610","subjectScheme":"ddc"}],"contributors":[{"name":"Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Sachsen-Anhalt","contributorType":"DataManager","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Martin-Luther Universität","contributorType":"HostingInstitution","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Delank, Karl-Stefan","contributorType":"RelatedPerson","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Schwesig, René","contributorType":"RelatedPerson","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Sack, Ingolf","contributorType":"RelatedPerson","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]},{"name":"Krüger, Thomas","contributorType":"RelatedPerson","affiliation":[],"nameIdentifiers":[]}],"dates":[{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Accepted"},{"date":"2026-10-07","dateType":"Available"},{"date":"2026","dateType":"Issued"}],"language":"de","types":{"schemaOrg":"Thesis","resourceTypeGeneral":"Dissertation","citeproc":"thesis","bibtex":"phdthesis","ris":"THES","resourceType":"PhDThesis"},"relatedIdentifiers":[],"relatedItems":[],"sizes":["1 Online-Ressource (VI, 74 Seiten, Seite VII-VIII)"],"formats":[],"version":null,"rightsList":[{"rightsIdentifierScheme":"SPDX","rightsUri":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","schemeUri":"https://spdx.org/licenses/","rights":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International","rightsIdentifier":"cc-by-4.0"}],"descriptions":[{"descriptionType":"Abstract","description":"Ziel dieser Studie war die Untersuchung der Wirksamkeit eines Maximalkrafttrainings (MKT) der Hüftabduktoren, eines Reaktivkrafttrainings (RKT) sowie eines Lauftechniktrainings (LTT) auf das Pelvic Drop Sign (PDS). In einer quasi-randomisierten Interventionsstudie wurden 65 Läufer mit einem PDS ≥5° über zwölf Wochen einer der drei Interventionen zugeteilt. Erfasst wurden u.a. das Pelvic Drop, das normalisierte Drehmoment der Hüftabduktoren (HABD), die Hüftadduktion, die EMG-Aktivität der HABD, die vertikale und die Beinsteifigkeit. 58 Probanden beendeten die Studie. Das LTT reduzierte das Pelvic Drop um 1,58°, das RKT um 1,03°, während das MKT trotz einer Kraftsteigerung von 23 % nur geringe Effekte zeigte. Das Pelvic Drop korrelierte ausschließlich mit der Hüftadduktion (r = 0,70), nicht jedoch mit der Kraft der HABD oder der EMG-Aktivität. Das LTT verbesserte zudem die Beinsteifigkeit. Die Ergebnisse sprechen gegen ein neuromuskuläres Defizit der HABD als Ursache für ein PDS."}],"geoLocations":[],"fundingReferences":[],"url":"https://opendata.uni-halle.de//handle/1981185920/127656","contentUrl":null,"metadataVersion":0,"schemaVersion":"http://datacite.org/schema/kernel-4","source":"mds","isActive":true,"state":"findable","reason":null,"viewCount":0,"downloadCount":0,"referenceCount":0,"citationCount":0,"partCount":0,"partOfCount":0,"versionCount":0,"versionOfCount":0,"created":"2026-10-07T20:00:07Z","registered":"2026-10-07T20:00:40Z","published":null,"updated":"2026-10-07T20:00:40Z"},"relationships":{"client":{"data":{"id":"zbmed.ulbhalle","type":"clients"}}}}],"meta":{"total":891394,"totalPages":400,"page":1},"links":{"self":"https://api.datacite.org/dois?resource-type-id=Dissertation","next":"https://api.datacite.org/dois?page%5Bnumber%5D=2\u0026page%5Bsize%5D=25\u0026resource-type-id=Dissertation"}}
