Show moreIn this interview, Sofanda relays her experience doing drag and developing her Bingo set, focusing on how she creates a welcoming community for Bingo players to join in on a Tuesday night. Highlighted here is how Bingo provides an accessible way for designers with little to no game design training are able to develop meaning play experiences. Furthermore, she elaborates on how Bingo extends her own performance of gender and sexuality to the players, inviting them to also perform and play with gender and sexuality. While Drag Bingo highlights an accessible method of structuring play, successful drag queen Bingo hosts must cultivate a liminal low- stakes space for participants to play with performances of gender and sexuality.

The purpose of this data collection was to test a scale for detecting verbal violence in Tweets. Workers at Mechanical Turk were first asked to complete a qualification test and then invited to code additional Tweets according to our scale. The qualification test involved a detailed explanation of each item of the scale, a walkthrough of a tweet that we had coded according to all 14 scale-items, a practice exercise, and a test. In the practice exercise, potential coders attempted to code a tweet on their own using our scale. After submitting their ratings, they were shown our own ratings for the same tweet and explanations for each of our ratings. The test component consisted of another coding task, in which coders were asked to code another tweet that we had already coded ourselves. The workers who, on test, with our ratings of that tweet on at least 11 out of the 14 items “passed” the test, earning the qualification that allowed them to participate in future coding tasks. Variables in the data include the ID of the Tweet (so that you may find it on Twitter; Twitter Terms of Service prohibit us from sharing the Tweets), the ID number we assigned to the coder, the rating that coder provided for each of the 14 items on our scale, the gender and age of the coder, and any comments the coder provided.

Show moreIn the past, the knowledge base for effective teaching was measured based on presage variables, methods of teaching, process-product research, competency-based teacher education, and professional decision-making. In addition, teachers’ effectiveness has been measured indirectly using proxy measurement. For example, teachers were assessed based on their performance on certification exams, their course, mathematical courses taken, and various experiences. Furthermore, teachers were measured based on students’ achievement tests, and using a pre-test and post-test model with limited knowledge of their development. This study aims to understand teacher mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT), its development over time, and how professional development influences their professional knowledge. Twenty middle school teachers (sixth through eighth grade) participated in content-based (algebra) professional development (PD) in Saudi Arabia. The selection pool of teachers targeted in the study is eighth (sixth grade) mathematics teachers that represented a variety of years of experience and PD experience. The results of this study found that teachers positively developed their MKT through the professional development program. In particular, based on the results of the pre-test, teachers had a low level of MKT before they participated in the PD program. Teachers’ developmental steps of their changes over time were captured during the PD via multiple interviews. These interviews revealed within-teacher themes, cross-teacher themes, and factors that impacted teachers’ changes. Furthermore, a paired sample t-test showed that there was a significant difference between the means of pre-test and post-test.

Title: Overvaluation of Weight and Shape Among Weight Loss Surgery Candidates

Show moreOvervaluation of shape and weight is a measure of the degree to which an individual’s self-evaluation is influenced by their shape and weight. Among individuals with eating disorders, this construct has been associated with elevated levels of eating pathology and psychological distress. Similarly, weight loss surgery candidates often report high levels of eating pathology, including loss of control eating, in addition to elevated levels of depression. Although studies have found poorer outcomes among those who endorse overvaluation of shape and weight in addition to loss of control eating as compared to those who deny overvaluation of shape and weight, the degree to which overvaluation of shape and weight is associated with disordered eating pathology, depression, psychosocial functioning, and self-esteem among weight loss surgery candidates has not been examined. The goals of the current study were to further elucidate these associations, including the degree to which frequency of loss of control eating episodes mediates associations. Data were analyzed from 88 individuals seeking bariatric surgery. Overvaluation of shape and weight was highly prevalent, with approximately 49% of the sample endorsing their weight and/or shape had a significant impact on their self-evaluation. The results of correlational analyses supported a link between overvaluation of shape and weight and higher levels of eating pathology, including more frequent loss of control eating episodes and disordered eating attitudes, in addition to poorer psychosocial functioning as indicated by greater psychosocial impairment, depression, and lower self-esteem. While frequency of loss of control eating episodes partially mediated associations between overvaluation of shape and weight and global eating pathology, it was not a significant mediator of the associations between overvaluation of shape and weight and shape/weight concerns, weight-related psychosocial functioning, self-esteem, or depression. These findings underscore the importance of assessing pre-surgical levels of overvaluation of shape and weight among individuals seeking bariatric surgery and suggest the importance of evaluating these attitudes and behaviors following surgery.
