The Perils of Complexity: A multi-stage study to determine necessary images for digitized scrapbook representation

Presentation on a multi-stage study to assess national trends and user preferences for scrapbook representation undertaken by librarians at the University of North Texas. The stages of this study included a review of national trends in scrapbook digitization, as seen in the Digital Public Library of America; a paper-prototyping-inspired, in-person user study; and an online survey of user preferences. The results of this research have enabled the implementation of clear guidelines at the University of North Texas for scrapbook digitization that accounts for the user experience rather than strictly relying on personal opinion or local librarian consensus. It was presented at the Visual Resource Association Annual Conference held on March 22-26, 2021.

The perils of untested assumptions in theory testing: A reply to Patrick et al. (2020) (open access)

The perils of untested assumptions in theory testing: A reply to Patrick et al. (2020)

This article is a comment responding to a critique by Patrick et. al (2020) of the authors' recent study that raised questions regarding the three-factor model of the Triarchic Psychopathy Measure (TriPM). The reply demonstrates additional problems with the three-factor TriPM model and shows that the seven-factor model out-performs the three-factor model in predicting correlates of psychopathy.

Peripheral Circulating Exosomal miRNAs Potentially Contribute to the Regulation of Molecular Signaling Networks in Aging

This article aims to understand some of the causes of aging and the underlying mechanisms that may lead to interventions that could reverse certain aging processes and slow development of aging-related diseases. People are living longer than ever. Consequently, they have a greater chance for developing a functional impairment or aging-related disease, such as a neurodegenerative disease, later in life.

Phase-Specific Damage Tolerance of a Eutectic High Entropy Alloy (open access)

Phase-Specific Damage Tolerance of a Eutectic High Entropy Alloy

Article describes how phase-specific damage tolerance was investigated for the AlCoCrFeNi2.1 high entropy alloy with a lamellar microstructure of L12 and B2 phases. Distinct differences in micro-scale deformation mechanisms were reflected in post-compression fractography, with L12-phase cantilevers showing typical characteristics of ductile failure, including the activation of multiple slip lanes, shear lips at the notch edge, and tearing inside the notch versus quasi-cleavage fracture with cleavage facets and a river pattern on the fracture surface for the B2-phase cantilevers.

A Phosphonic Functionalized Biopolymer for the Sorption of Lanthanum (III) and Application in the Recovery of Rare Earth Elements (open access)

A Phosphonic Functionalized Biopolymer for the Sorption of Lanthanum (III) and Application in the Recovery of Rare Earth Elements

Authors of the article state that in the first step of their experiment, the sorption was investigated using La(III) ions before testing for the recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from pretreated industrial acidic leachate. They infer that phosphonate groups participate in the sorption, and that the most effective sorption is at pH = 4.

Phosphorus deprivation affects composition and spatial distribution of membrane lipids in legume nodules

Article assessing membrane lipids in M. truncatula tissues using electrospray ionization–mass spectrometry. The results suggest that specific PC species may be differentially important in diverse nodule zones and cell types, and that membrane lipid remodeling during P stress is not uniform across the nodule.
