Show moreGeorge Spanos is a game technician living in Schaumburg, Illinois. He works freelance around the Chicago suburbs at arcades and warehouses fixing whatever machines and cabinets are sent his way. Spanos’s first memories of arcade machines are from playing Qbert at the age of four in his grandparents’ grocery store. Years later, the entire grocery store was converted to a game room. It was during this time that George learned to repair the various games his grandparents had acquired. After going to college, he returned to help run the establishment, and eventually moved from an operator to the freelance work he does today. In this interview, Spanos speaks about his personal background, the specifics of his work, and his thoughts of the future of the coin op industry. The interview starts with him discussing his early childhood involvement with coin-op and how he was raised in this environment. This went onto his early adulthood working for his grandparents at their own game room and the eventual transition into freelance work. Spanos believes that a number of arcades are currently setting a positive trend for the industry to grow as a whole.

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.

Title: COMMUNICATION, LEADERSHIP, AND VIRTUAL TEAMS

Show moreA self-managing virtual (SMV) team is a configuration that permits team leaders to manage and administer their team with limited supervisory oversight. These teams are widespread in software and engineering environments where resources may be scattered globally (Yukl, 2009). Research into SMV team leadership is, however, in its early stages. Scholars have yet to confirm that traditional leadership theories operate in this theater. Additionally, the slate of leader roles that describe leadership and how these leaders affect success is not well understood. Research into emergent leadership provides limited insight into virtual teams, but current research fails to examine how emergent leaders manifest in the presence of an appointed leader. This study examines the relationship between emergent leadership and team success using the Behavioral Complexity Leadership theory or Leaderplex. In the experiment, two virtual teams attempted a series of interdependent, complex tasks across a series of weeks. This analysis confirmed that leader roles could adequately describe leadership in virtual teams. SMV leaders focused specifically on the Monitor role with the remaining roles left distributed among the membership. The appointed leader condition did not suppress leader roles, however, in this study the appointed leader negatively affected team performance. Lastly, two perspectives (Perception and Practice) showed little correlation between leader roles. The study, conducted using the synthetic milieu of a popular MMO --World of Warcraft, served to push the envelope of permissible social science research environments.

Title: “Broader Impacts” or “Responsible Research and Innovation”? A Comparison of Two Criteria for Funding Research in Science and Engineering

Show moreOur subject is how the experience of Americans with a certain funding criterion, “broader impacts” (and some similar criteria) may help in efforts to turn the European concept of Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) into a useful guide to funding Europe’s scientific and technical research. We believe this comparison may also be as enlightening for Americans concerned with revising research policy. We have organized our report around René Von Schomberg’s definition of RRI, since it seems both to cover what the European research group to which we belong is interested in and to be the only widely accepted definition of RRI. According to Von Schomberg, RRI: “… is a transparent, interactive process by which societal actors and innovators become mutually responsive to each other with a view to the (ethical) acceptability, sustainability and societal desirability of the innovation process and its marketable products (in order to allow a proper embedding of scientific and technological advances in our society).” While RRI seeks fundamental changes in the way research is conducted, Broader Impacts is more concerned with more peripheral aspects of research: widening participation of disadvantaged groups, recruiting the next generation of scientists, increasing the speed with which results are used, and so on. Nevertheless, an examination of the broadening of funding criteria over the last four decades suggests that National Science Foundation has been moving in the direction of RRI.
