100 Years in Psychology and Deafness: A Centennial Retrospective

This article is from an address the author made to Division 26 of the American Psychological Association. It reviews the development of psychological services provided to deaf persons in the United States. The article discusses the evolution of psychological testing, personality assessment, treatment of psychopathology, and the role of linguistics and sign language in psychology and deafness

Nothing Has Changed Since Yesterday, Why the Role of Social Media in Radicalization is more Complex than it Seems

In recent years there has been a seeming resurgence of political radicalism such as the alt-right and openly socialist groups that have coalesced around former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. This sudden resurgence of radicalism has often been blamed on Social Media and its perceived ability to create echo chambers and help these groups organize. The goal of this paper is to refute the idea that social media is the sole cause of this recent wave of radicalism by building a framework of radicalization agnostic of social media, and then to explore how social media interacts with that framework. The paper then provides potential solutions for reforming social media platforms to minimize what role they do have in radicalizatio

Cross Cultural Ethics in The Conduct of Deafness Research

This paper argues for and illustrates the application of contemporary cross-cultural ethical principle sand practices in deafness research. The relevance of framing some deafness researchas cross-cultural is first explained. A gradient is defined where cultural bearing varies from low to high, depending on a study’s topic and design. It is concluded that scientists should employ contemporary cross-cultural ethical practices when their studies have cultural bearing. The evolution and nature of these special ethical practices are then detailed. They extend research protections beyond the individual participant to the host community as a collective entity. They address: relations with the heterogeneous host community, the research agenda and design, the participation of host community scientists, publication foci and channels, and more. Specific applications of these principles and practices to deafness research are described

Improvements in one-dimensional grounding-line parameterizations in an ice-sheet model with lateral variations (PSUICE3D v2.1)

The use of a boundary-layer parameterization of buttressing and ice flux across grounding lines in a two-dimensional ice-sheet model is improved by allowing general orientations of the grounding line. This and another modification to the model\u27s grounding-line parameterization are assessed in three settings: rectangular fjord-like domains – the third Marine Ice Sheet Model Intercomparison Project (MISMIP+) and Marine Ice Sheet Model Intercomparison Project for plan view models (MISMIP3d) – and future simulations of West Antarctic ice retreat under Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP)8.5-based climates. The new modifications are found to have significant effects on the fjord-like results, which are now within the envelopes of other models in the MISMIP+ and MISMIP3d intercomparisons. In contrast, the modifications have little effect on West Antarctic retreat, presumably because dynamics in the wider major Antarctic basins are adequately represented by the model\u27s previous simpler one-dimensional formulation. As future grounding lines retreat across very deep bedrock topography in the West Antarctic simulations, buttressing is weak and deviatoric stress measures exceed the ice yield stress, implying that structural failure at these grounding lines would occur. We suggest that these grounding-line quantities should be examined in similar projections by other ice models to better assess the potential for future structural failure
