Dawn Rae Flood is an Associate Professor of History at Campion College at the University of Regina in Saskatchewan, Canada. She is the author of Rape in Chicago: Race, Myth and the Courts (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2012, 2018) and “A Black Panther in the Great White North: Fred Hampton Visits Saskatchewan, 1969,” Journal for the Study of Radicalism, vol. 8 no. 2 (Fall 2014): 21-49. Her research focuses on race and gender relations in a modern, urban setting and radical activist movements in support of social justice. Her research on Fred Hampton’s visit to the Regina Campus of the University of Saskatchewan is currently being developed as a dramatic play and limited-run television series.Item Open Access A study of drag‐and‐drop query refinement and query history visualization for mobile exploratory search(Wiley, 2024-12-30) Payandeh, Mohammad Hasan; Hoeber, Orland; Boon, Miriam; Storie, Dale; Ramshaw, VeronicaWhen undertaking complex search scenarios, the underlying information need cannot be satisfied by finding a single optimal resource; instead, searchers need to engage in exploratory search processes to find multiple resources by itera- tively revising and reformulation their queries. This process of query refinement is particularly challenging when using a mobile device, where typing is difficult. Furthermore, in mobile search contexts interruptions can lead to searchers los- ing track of what they were doing. To address these challenges, we designed a public digital library search interface for mobile devices that includes two novel features: drag-and-drop query refinement and query history visualization. To assess the value of this interface compared to a typical baseline, we conducted a controlled laboratory study with 32 participants that included pursuing complex search scenarios, being interrupted in the midst of the search, and resuming the search after the interruption. While participants took more time, they generated longer queries and reported positive subjective opinions about the usability of the exploratory search and task resumption features, along with a greater increase in certainty. These findings show the value of leveraging new touch- based interaction mechanisms within mobile search contexts, and the benefits that visualization can bring to supporting search task resumptionItem Open Access Exercise Effects on Consolidation of Speech Training in Post Stroke Aphasia: A Case Series Study(2024-11-06) Hebert, Taylor; Bardutz, Holly; Mang, CameronItem Open Access If Rocks Could Talk: Laser ablation mapping of 2.5 billion year old banded iron formations(2024-11-06) Kreutzer, K.D.; Li, Zhiquan; Afolabi, Taiwo; Button, Mark; Konhauser, Kurt O.; Robbins, Leslie J.Item Open Access How old do you feel?

The research focuses on the development and optimization of heterogeneous solid-base catalysts to enhance CO₂ absorption rates, improve solvent loading, and increase overall process efficiency. Various catalysts, including PEI-modified catalysts, K/MgO, K/MgO-CaO, and activated carbon blends, were synthesized and evaluated. Results indicated significant improvements in CO₂ capture rates, with the K/MgO-CaO catalyst demonstrating notable chemical, thermal, and mechanical stability. Furthermore, a life cycle assessment (LCA) based on the ReCiPe methodology highlighted the environmental benefits of this novel catalyst-solvent system compared to conventional MEA-based carbon capture and the novel solvent AMP:PRLD. This work presents a promising pathway for power and energy sectors to enhance sustainability, reduce emissions, and move beyond net-zero targets.Item Open Access A Systematic Review of Approaches Used to Interview Vulnerable Children(University of Regina: Department of Psychology, 2024) Jason, Priyanka; Thompson, Kailey; Gerbeza, Matea; Bruer, Kaila C.Item Open Access DTL-IDS: Deep Transfer Learning-based Intrusion Detection System in 5G Networks(2023-11-02) Farzaneh, Behnam; Shahriar, Nashid; Al Muktadir, Abu Hena; Towhid, Md. ShamimItem Open Access Exploring relationships between corticospinal excitability, motor function, and aerobic fitness in multiple sclerosis(2023-12-04) Moslemi, Zahra; Toledo-Aldana, Eduardo A.; Bye, N.D.; Foy, H.C.M.; Eng, Janice J.; Donkers, Sarah J.; Mang, C.S.Background: Limitations in motor function experienced by people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) may contribute to physical deconditioning. Here, we explored relationships between measurements of central nervous system function obtained with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), walking and balance motor function, and aerobic fitness in PwMS. Methods: This ancillary study uses baseline data from an ongoing randomized controlled trial of PwMS. TMS was applied to determine corticospinal excitability and inhibition via active motor threshold (aMT) and cortical silent period (CSP) duration for the tibialis anterior (TA) and first dorsal interosseous (FDI) of the stronger limb. Motor function assessments included the Timed 25-foot Walk Test (T25-FW) and Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini-BESTest). Aerobic fitness (V̇O2-peak) was determined using a maximal exercise test. Independent-sample, unequal variance t-tests examined differences in motor function and fitness between participants with (TA+) and without (TA−) a response to TMS in the TA muscle. Spearman’s correlations evaluated relationships among measures. As preliminary research, comparisons and correlations yielding medium-to-large effect sizes were noted (Cohen’s d or rho ≥ 0.5). Results: Baseline data from 16 participants was analyzed (age: 56±10 years; T25-FW range: 4.3-180 s; Mini-BESTest range: 2-22). Compared to TA+ participants (n=9), TA− participants (n=7) demonstrated slower T25-FW times (44.5±73.5 s vs. 8.7±4.6 s, d=0.75, p=0.29) and lower V̇O2-peaks (10.6±2.2 ml/kg/min vs 15.9±3.6 ml/kg/min, d=−1.3, p<0.01). Among TA+ participants, higher TA aMT and longer CSP duration were associated with faster T25-FW performance (rho≥|0.52|, p≤0.15) and greater Mini-BESTest scores (rho≥|0.65|, p≤0.06). There were no relationships between FDI aMT and CSP with T25-FW or Mini-BESTest performance (n=14; rho≤|0.12|, p≥0.70). Both TA and FDI aMT were correlated with V̇O2-peak (rho≥|0.80|, p≤0.01). Discussion: Corticospinal excitability and inhibition for the TA muscle may be uniquely associated with walking and balance motor function, while corticospinal excitability associations with aerobic fitness may be independent of the muscle tested.Item Open Access Engagement with Interactive Displays from Static to Dynamic(2024-05-03) van den Berg, Corina; Lucas, Angela
