Age and Gender in Reddit Commenting and Success
Finlay, S. Craig Korea Institute of Science and Technology Informat 2014 Journal of Information Science Theory and Practice Vol.2 No.3
Reddit is a large user generated content (USG) website in which users form common interest groups and submit links to external content or text posts of user-created content. The web site operates on a voting system whereby registered users can assign positive or negative ratings to both submitted content and comments made to submitted content. While Reddit is a pseudonymous site, with users creating usernames but providing no biographical data, an informal survey posted to a large shared interest community yielded 734 responses including age and gender of users. This provided a large amount of contextual biographical data with which to analyse user profiles at the first level of Computer Mediated Discourse Analysis (CMDA), articulated by Susan Herring. The results indicate that older Reddit users both formulate more complex writing and enjoy more success when rated by other users. Gender data was incomplete and as such only tentative results could be proposed in that regard.
The horned Australian burrowing mayfly Jappa (Ephemeroptera: Leptophlebiidae)
배연재,Kyla J. Finlay,C. CAMPBELL 한국곤충학회 2013 Entomological Research Vol.43 No.1
The horned Australian burrowing mayfly genus Jappa Harker (Leptophlebiidae) is revised based on adult and larval material collected throughout Australia. Five named species [J. campbelli Bae & Finlay, J. edmundsi Skedros & Polhemus, J. furcifera (Eaton), J. serrata Skedros & Polhemus and J. strigata (Eaton 1871) (= J. bicornis Ulmer 1916; = J. kutera Harker 1954, syn. n.)] are recognised, and two new species [J. harkerae n. sp. and J. suteri n. sp.] are described. Descriptions, diagnoses, line‐drawings and images of key characters, distributional information, taxonomic remarks and keys to adults and larvae are provided. The species Jappa tristis Harker 1954 is transferred to the genus Tillyardophlebia Dean.
The Hornless Australian Burrowing Mayfly Ulmerophlebia (Ephemeroptera: Leptophlebiidae)
Bae, Yeon Jae,Finlay, Kyla J.,Campbell, Ian C. The Korean Society of Systematic Zoology 2012 Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity Vol.28 No.4
The hornless Australian burrowing mayfly genus Ulmerophlebia Demoulin (Leptophlebiidae) is revised based on comprehensive examinations of adult and larval material collected throughout Australia. Two new species [Ulmerophlebia deani n. sp. and U. minuta n. sp.] and three named species [U. annulata (Harker), U. mjobergi (Ulmer) and U. pipinna Suter] are included. The larva of U. deani can be distinguished by the moderately developed apicomedial expansion of gills and W-shaped markings on the abdominal terga. The male adult of U. minuta can be easily distinguished by the greatly reduced penes. Descriptions, diagnoses, line-drawings of key characters, material and distributional data, taxonomic remarks and adult and larval keys are provided.
From Compliance to Context - Advancing Assistive Technology Capabilities for Medication Management
CD Nugent,P Fiorini,DD Finlay,RJ Davies,MD Mulvenna,ND Black 한국과학기술원 인간친화 복지 로봇 시스템 연구센터 2005 International Journal of Assistive Robotics and Me Vol.6 No.4
It is a well known fact that patients do not always comply with their prescribed medication regimes. This may be partly attributed to the complexity surrounding the compliance issue itself. Issues relating to compliance involve a number of stakeholders in the supply-to-intake chain of medication and in addition are complicated further by the manner in which the medication is prescribed, delivered and taken. This paper presents an innovative electromechanical compliance aid which can be used within a person"s home and can be monitored remotely via Internet based technologies. The technology developed has been evaluated in 4 pilot sites and initial results have shown its usage to improve patient compliance levels and also to reduce the workload of stakeholders involved in home based support of medication management. The paper concludes with a vision of consolidating the proposed technical solution with advances in context prediction to further improve home based medication management services.
Assessment of Bradykinesia, Akinesia and Rigidity Using a Home-based Assessment Tool
L. Cunningham,C. Nugent,G. Moore,D. Finlay,D. Craig 동국대학교 정보융합기술원 2009 International Journal of Assistive Robotics and Sy Vol.10 No.4
An increase in the prevalence of age related diseases such as Parkinson's Disease (PD) and the increasingly aging population has created a need for appropriate health and social care services for the elderly and disabled. PD requires close monitoring and regular assessment. In order to be assessed and monitored, people are usually required to attend a clinic or hospital. In this study a home-based assessment tool, which collects information on people’s hand and finger movements, has been developed and evaluated. The tool collects data on the time taken to make a series of movements, the speed at which the movements are made and the path that is taken for each movement. Through the use of this tool movement difficulties such as bradykinesia, akinesia and rigidity could be identified within the home environment. Such an approach has the potential to decrease the number of clinic/hospital visits a person with PD requires. It could also assist with making the current, somewhat subjective, methods of PD assessment become more objective. If used over a long period of time, for example, daily or weekly, it could help identify how effective or otherwise a person's medication is. This would be achieved by the tool collecting data on a regular basis in order to establish what is considered to be ‘normal’ results for that particular person. So for example, a pattern may emerge over a few months that each time a particular participant is ‘off’ they take the same or similar length of time to use the tool. It could be suggested that the length of time the participant took to use the tool when ‘off’ during those months was their ‘normal’ result for their ‘off’ state. If, after a period of time, the results collected seemed ‘abnormal’ for that person it could indicate that a visit to the clinician is needed to identify if the medication needs changed. The developed tool was evaluated by twenty participants. Half of the participants had been diagnosed with PD and the other half were a control group without the disease. Within each group there were a mix of participants who were computer literate and those who had no experience of using computers. Results following evaluation of the tool indicated that the control group were able to conduct assessments using the tool in a time that was significantly shorter than that taken by the PD group (p = 0.034). This in turn suggests that such tools have the ability to assist with enabling more objective assessment of PD.
