We present a novel approach to quality control during the processing of astronomical data. Quality control in the Astro-WISE Information System is integral to all aspects of data handing and provides transparent access to quality estimators for all stages of data reduction from the raw image to the final catalog. The implementation of quality control mechanisms relies on the core features in th...

This study utilized theory proposed by Mohan, Slater, Luo, and Jaipal (2002) regarding what they refer to as the Developmental Path of Cause to examine issues of AWE score use in classroom contexts. Utilization of this model enabled this study to investigate the accuracy of the AWE scores by comparing them to ratings based on teachers’ intuition as well as to scores generated based on existing ...

Prior work suggests that feeling small relative to nature (Nature-Self Size; NSS) and inclusion of in the self-concept (INS) are both associated with more pro-environmental attitudes. The present experiment asked whether exposure stimuli eliciting awe—an emotion often evoked by extraordinary panoramic views nature, characterized subjective experience “small self” modulation reliance on stored c...

CSP ‖ B is a formal approach to specification that combines CSP and B. In this paper we present our tool that automatically translates a subset of executable UML (xUML) models into CSP ‖ B, for the purpose of verification and increased validation at the early stages of a software engineering development lifecycle. The tool is being developed for our industrial collaborators, AWE plc, in order t...

Understanding positive emotions' shared and differentiating features can yield valuable insight into the structure of positive emotion space and identify emotion states, or aspects of emotion states, that are most relevant for particular psychological processes and outcomes. We report two studies that examined core relational themes (Study 1) and expressive displays (Study 2) for eight positive...

This paper communicates on an innovative, laboratory size alkaline water electrolyser (AWE) system, capable of efficiently producing ultra-pure hydrogen and oxygen gases. The system is composed a zero-gap, bipolar-electrode stack, equipped with polymer-based membrane, along two drying columns for effective purification H2 O2 gaseous products. An optimal electrochemical efficiency the stack prov...

Research has shown that experiencing awe can support people’s well-being and enhance their resilience. A secondary phenomenological analysis was conducted of data collected from the Awe Project, a 5-day, online resilience program. Based on existing literature, which demonstrates reflecting positive memories individuals’ well-being, practice during Project prompted participants first to define t...

The added worker effect (AWE) measures the entry of individuals into labor force due to their partners’ adverse market outcomes. We propose a new method calculate AWE that allows us estimate its on any outcome. reduces fraction households with two non-employed members by 16% for 1977-2018 period; 28% in 1990 recession and 23% during great recession. also accounts why women’s employment is much ...
