Upward Mobility and Affordable Housing

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) and Rapid rehousing can provide safe, stable housing for vulnerable homeless populations such as those experiencing substance abuse disorder, mental illness, and chronic homelessness (Aubry et al., 2020). We evaluated and analyzed research articles on supportive housing interventions and upward mobility. Literature was collected from online scholarly databases. Evidence supports Rapid Rehousing and PSH interventions in improving targeted outcomes such as mental health, substance abuse use, cost-effectiveness, housing stability, and quality of life (Aubry et al., 2020; (Miler et al., 2021). Further, the literature supports that PSH and Rapid Rehousing are cost-effective models when considering cost offsets from increasing housing stability (Cunningham & Bakto, 2018; Aubry et al., 2020). Rapid rehousing and PSH can provide short-term and long-term housing provision and stability (García & Kim, 2020). These interventions help those experiencing homelessness to gain upward mobility and housing stability. Also, individuals spend less time experiencing homelessness, and less money is spent to help them become stably housed (Cunningham & Bakto, 2018). Policymakers should consider further implementing and providing resources to continue PSH and Rapid Rehousing services

Then and Now: The Evolution of the Psychology Undergraduate Program at Utah State University

The history of Utah State University’s Psychology Department has significantly influenced the current activities and goals of the department, and this presentation will exemplify how that is so. Throughout the Psychology Department’s history, a common theme was focusing on research, teacher education programs, and instructing the individual undergraduate student to be more prepared for their life after graduation (USU Mission Statement, n.d.). This theme has continued on today through the department’s mission. For instance, the program strives to inspire scientific inquiry and critical thinking, which is done through various courses, including both undergraduate and graduate courses that focus on research methodology and various techniques that support scientific exploration (USU Learning Objectives, n.d.). The Psychology Department also promotes ethical and social responsibility in a diverse world through teaching diversity related courses and their continual commitment to equity and diversity related issues (USU Learning Objectives, n.d.). The current work of the psychology program could not be possible without the past influences and historical figures that built Utah State Psychology into what it is today

A GEANT4 Monte-Carlo Simulation Code for precision beta spectroscopy

The measurement of the beta asymmetry parameter in nuclear beta decay is a potentially very sensitive tool to search for non V-A components in the charge-changing weak interaction. To reach the required precision (percent level) all effects that modify the emission pattern of the beta radiation, i.e. the geometry of the setup, the effect of the magnetic field on the trajectories of beta particles as well as (back)scattering in the source, on the sample holder and on the detector, have to be correctly taken into account in the analysis of the data. A thorough study of these effects and a new method based on detailed GEANT4 Monte-Carlo simulations that was developed for this purpose is presented here. The code was developed for beta asymmetry measurements by means of the Low Temperature Nuclear Orientation (LTNO) method, but can in principle be generalized to other experimental setups using other polarization techniques
