Unrestricted, One of the main goals of my doctoral training has been to gain experience working with a variety of types of epidemiologic data. The three projects that compose this dissertation have provided me with the opportunity to work with several different data structures: (1) published summary data, (2) population-based family data, (3) prospective cohort data, and (4) population-based case-control data.; For my dissertation, I have employed each of these data structures to investigate the role of steroid hormones in the etiology of several urologic diseases. In the last several decades of epidemiologic research, it has become clear that steroid hormones are involved in many disease processes. For my research, I have studied the relationships between steroid hormone exposure and molecules of steroid hormone response and female bladder cancer, as well as two male urologic diseases: infertility and testicular germ cell tumors.; In my first paper, I investigated the association between male infertility and a polymorphic CAG repeat tract in the androgen receptor gene (AR) through the meta-analysis of a large body of existing literature on the topic. I quantitatively summarized 33 studies, and found that infertile male cases had statistically significantly longer mean CAG repeat length than controls (SMD: 0.19, 95% CI: 0.09-0.29). Meta-analysis of a select subset of 13 studies that used more stringent case and control selection criteria revealed a larger difference between cases and controls (SMD: 0.31, 95% CI: 0.14-0.47). This meta-analysis provides support for an association between increased androgen receptor CAG length and idiopathic male infertility, and brings together for the first time results from many published reports on this topic.; In my second paper, I expanded upon the results of the meta-analysis to conduct an original data analysis studying the association between androgen receptor CAG repeat length and risk of testicular germ cell tumors. Increasing rates of te

Unrestricted, Traditionally, park agencies address the shortage of urban parks by trying to increase the number and acreage of parks in underserved areas. Such an approach focuses exclusively on physical solutions, i.e. the development of new parks, requires substantial financial and land resources, and presumes that the parks department is the only supplier of recreational opportunities. Given the lack of public funding and land for new urban parks, this traditional approach is no longer typically feasible.; This paper presents an alternative approach that focuses on the provision of recreational services through multiple-use facilities and partnerships with a wide variety of public, nonprofit, and private organizations. This approach rightfully recognizes parks as a means to address recreational needs rather than an end itself, and shifts park agencies from being producers and guardians of parks to being facilitators of recreational services. Instead of focusing alone on developing new parks on its own and devoting significant resources on land acquisition and facility construction, park agencies should actively identify and pursue alternative ways, locations, and partners to offer recreational services. Alternative ways could include: the joint use of school facilities; the introduction of recreational uses on land owned by utilities; mobile gyms; transportation of residents to outside recreational facilities; and temporary use of parking and vacant lots, reuse of existing buildings, and temporary closure of streets for recreational purposes. The key component of this paper is a case study to demonstrate how this alternative approach of meeting recreational needs may be implemented in Florence-Firestone, an underserved area in South Los Angeles.

Unrestricted, This dissertation examines the interrelationships between Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS) and Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG), the consequences of their coexistence in some survivors, and the buffering roles of PTG on distress in young adult cancer survivors. Specifically, three independent papers comprising the dissertation aim (1) to test curvilinear relationships between PTS and PTG; (2) to classify latent profiles of the survivors based on their PTS and PTG levels and investigate the characteristics of the survivor profiles; and (3) to test the moderating effect of PTG on the negative relationship between PTS and psychological distress. Participants were recruited from four medical centers that treat pediatric oncology patients in Southern California and Michigan. Inclusion criteria included current age 18-39; age at diagnosis 0-21 years; and disease-free status. Volunteer participants answered the mailed survey questionnaires. Of the 618 participants who responded and met the eligibility criteria, 593 survivors who had both PTG and PTS scores were used for this dissertation. In the first paper, the overall relationships between PTG and PTS were not statistically significant. The two phenomena seemed to coexist, but independently from each other. In the second paper using latent profile analyses, three clusters of survivors were found based on PTS and PTG levels: "Thrivers" who grew the most with their traumatic distress at medium level; "Sufferers" who suffered the highest level of distress with the level of growth at medium; and "Recoverers" at the lowest levels in both PTS and PTG. There was no difference among the clusters in demographic variables such as gender, employment, income, education, and current age. Thrivers comprised the most recent survivors with the highest level of social support and the greatest mental health, whereas Sufferers had the worst physical health.; In the third paper, PTG was found to buffer the negative impact of PTS on psychological dist

Unrestricted, Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the general population. Arterial inflammation and damage manifests as arterial thickening and is the pathological basis for atherosclerosis. The first signs of atherosclerosis are thought to begin in childhood and can be assessed using non-invasive ultrasound measures of the carotid intima media thicknees (CIMT). Children with any of the traditional cardiovascular risk factors, such as obesity or the metabolic syndrome may have early signs of undetectable, or subclinical, atherosclerosis. The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate subclinical atherosclerosis risk in overweight Latino youth with a family history of type 2 diabetes. The specific aims of this dissertation were: 1) to evaluate whether persistence of the metabolic syndrome, a clinically relevant tool, was associated with CIMT; 2) to examine if temporal changes in visceral adiposity and insulin resistance contributed to CIMT; and 3) to assess the progression of CIMT over a 2-year period. The over arching hypothesis was that in a cohort of high-risk children, the metabolic syndrome and related mechanisms such as abdominal adiposity and insulin resistance would be associated with increased CIMT. Participants were recruited from the on-going longitudinal Study of Latino Adolescents at Risk (SOLAR) Project, which examines type 2 diabetes risk in overweight Latino adolescents by use of total and regional body composition (via DEXA and MRI), as well as measures of insulin/glucose metabolism using OGTT and FSIVGTT with Bergman's Minimal Modeling.; In paper 1, participants who had persistent metabolic syndrome over a 3-year period had significantly higher CIMT (0.647±0.018mm) compared to those who never had the metabolic syndrome, (0.600±0.007mm, p<0.01). In paper 2, participants in the highest CIMT tertile maintained levels of fasting glucose above 90mg/dL over a 3-year period prior to CIMT measurement, whereas the low and middle CIMT tertiles had

Unrestricted, It is the purpose of this study to present an analysis of the Negro Press in Los Angeles. It attempts to show from a sociological view the component elements and the chief purpose of the press. The press is analysed by showing its chief purpose and functions, the factors that compose the press, and the contents of the various newspapers. Objectivity is sought throughout. Rating one paper superior to another similar paper will not be attempted. It is true that some may have reached a more developed stage journalistically because of their experience while others are new in the field. By limiting the study to the press of Los Angeles, a more thorough picture may be presented. Only papers published in Los Angeles by Negros that can be purchased by the public are presented. They are the ones that would circulate sufficiently to be of sociological importance. The study is limited to publications that have appeared within the last four years, 1942 to 1945 inclusively. Within the last few years same books have been written with chapters on the Negro press, and several magazine articles have appeared. To my knowledge only three books dealing with the Negro Press exclusively have been published, of which only one is in print, namely, Detweilder's The Negro Press, 1922. Original research is therefore imperative in many ways and complete information is not always possible.; The aim of this thesis is to answer the following questions: 1. Is there a need for the Negro press in Los Angeles? 2. To what extent does it have a real purpose? 3. How did it start, and why? 4. What types of editorials are presented in the Los Angeles Negro's press? 5. What type of advertisements are now carried in the Negro Press? 6. How much space is actually devoted to crime items? 7. What are the types of materials presented in feature sections? 8. Where does the news of the non-local type of the papers come from? These are the chief questions that arise concerning the Negro's press.

Unrestricted, Contrary to popular belief, most English Language Learners (ELLs) in the United States are native born, and this particular population is projected to make up 82% of the total American population in year 2050 (NCELA, 2006). A large achievement gap between ELLs and English speakers, however, has been identified, especially in urban districts, where reading and ELL student achievements tend to be low (Goldenberg, 2010). Presently, most ELLs are taught to decode the language by analyzing and identifying linguistic elements out of context. As a result, learners are less engaged and more detached about learning a language independent of meaning and relevant content (Goodlad, 1984). This study examined the use of reading materials that positively influence the achievement and classroom participation of native Spanish speaking English language learners (ELLs). A reading intervention was implemented in a sheltered ESL 3 (an equivalent to ninth grade English) classroom in a southwest urban school. This intervention addressed the extent to which culturally relevant authentic materials that incorporate learner's native language (L1) increased student achievement and participation. The results and pedagogical implications are discussed in this paper.

Unrestricted, With over 40% of total energy use in the United States coming from buildings, it is clear that future conservation strategies must dedicate a significant focus towards the built environment. Space heating and cooling represent two of the three largest building energy loads and thus provide an excellent springboard for alternative technologies that use renewable energy as the primary energy source. One such system uses solar thermal energy as the primary driver for thermal comfort. Heat energy from the sun is absorbed and stored in water. In the winter months, the hot water is pumped directly into the building to provide space heating. In the summer, the hot water runs an absorption chiller to provide cooling to the space.; The Audubon Center at Debs Park in Los Angeles, CA uses just such a system. The off-grid, LEED platinum building is designed to first utilize passive strategies to minimize building loads. The remaining peaks are then met with the solar thermally driven system. The building uses no backup energy sources, relying on its unique system for year-round thermal comfort. An extensive network of sensors monitors the various system components in the building, providing the data used for the in depth system analysis presented in this paper.; The system performed well in the cooling season, meeting the cooling loads in the fully occupied office spaces for nearly the complete duration of the study. The heating season was drastically different, with the space too cool for comfort 40% of the time. This highlights one of the main paradoxes of a solar thermal system. Solar cooling relies on the synchronization of peak loads and peak energy availability. On the other hand, solar heating peak loads rarely coincide with peak energy availability. Various explanations of the successes and failures of the system are presented in this thesis, along with design ideas for future systems based on those conclusions. To do this, a number of different comparisons between time

Unrestricted, This paper researches the rise of independent hyperlocal news blogs and how they measure against other similar, self-organized virtual networks. On the one hand, I compare hyperlocal news blogs to fandom culture and on the other hand to protagonist organizations that have successfully fought against traditional military hierarchy and governments.; To test these approaches, I interviewed four local bloggers in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. Like in fan culture, labor of love motivation was a major component in hyperlocal blogs. Nobody is paid and the information is given out to others who share the same passion to the neighborhood they live in. The culture of appropriation was smaller than expected, since three out of four blogs were doing mostly original content, not remixing and mashing up content done by others. They did not create an affinity space around them, where contributors are plenty and people act out of affinity. Naturally, the bloggers themselves belong to this group, but their sites did not generate massive contributions.; They did not act like the more professional leaderless organizations, such as terrorist organizations, but the basic elements of shared ideology and loose, small groups that are loosely connected were the same as in other activist organizations. I found these similarities to be the most interesting and probably most important ones.

Unrestricted, Over the preceding forty years, the voters of California have directly enacted many significant public policy initiatives that have changed the face of politics and governance in the Golden State. In the face of the changes enacted, the leaders of contemporary California now struggle to govern the most populous state in the union, many of these struggles being attributed to the passage of these statewide initiatives.; From the inception of the United States, the Founding Fathers in the Federalist Papers warned of the unintended consequences of a direct democracy and furthered the use of a representative model of our government. However, as California struggles, the roots of the systemic problems have yet to be addressed by a rational body seeking fundamental change. Despite the fact that many of California's fiscal and policy woes can be directly traced back to the passage of these initiatives, little has been accomplished that will change the way California seeks to govern.; Legislative Term Limits in California and the Faces of Change discusses the specifics of four statewide propositions that have altered the state government and state budget. As this research opens discussing the voter enacted initiatives that have changed the state government, it goes on to tell the stories of sixteen individuals who have been touched, personally, by these policies. Qualitative interviews of these individuals were conducted and contrasted amongst one another, discussing generational similarities and differences under the context of leadership, in addition to linking political culture to generational identity. For some, opportunities have been availed as they may one day seek to lead the state. For others, those who defined the political and policy landscape of California for decades, their careers in elected service have ceased or taken other courses. These individuals compose the face of change in California and this work tells these leadership stories.; Following this analysi

Unrestricted, Los Angeles is often better known for producing fashion that is more casual and commercial friendly than cool and cutting edge. Defying this stereotype however is a group of designers whose work and working methods are more similar with the artists who have come to make L.A. a world-renowned cultural capital. These style innovators, along with several organizations in the form of event production companies, art institutions and retailers, have come to challenge the common perception of what L.A. fashion is about by playing up the art association. Through interviews and historical research, this paper examines the way these individuals and organizations work, their motives behind what they do and how they collectively attempt to show a side to L.A. fashion that is often ignored on the international fashion scene.

Unrestricted, The purpose of this paper is to examine the character of Alice Pieszecki and how she fits with such mainstream images as the female reporter, tabloid reporter, and magazine reporter in film, as well as to understand how she uniquely contributes to the image of the gay female journalist on television. The groundbreaking Showtime series The L Word (Seasons One through Six) depicts Alice, played by actress Leisha Hailey, as a writer for L.A. Magazine, a radio broadcaster for NPR Santa Monica station KCRW- FM, and a co-host on the television talk show The Look. Alice also creates a Web site for Our Chart, a diagram that shows who has slept with whom and how everyone is connected, where she posts her podcast, Alice in Lesboland.

Unrestricted, Purpose of the Study; The purpose of this study was to examine high school students' patterns of violence reporting and what steps can be taken to increase the likelihood that students will report violent incidents in which they are the bystander, especially when the victim is a member of the LGBT student population. In addition, the bystander behaviors of LGBT students were examined.; Theoretical Framework; Social influence theory (Berkowitz, 2000) provided one framework for the purposes of this study. Bystander reporting has been shown to be particularly susceptible to social influence. Social influence describes the rules that a group uses for appropriate and inappropriate values, beliefs, attitudes and behaviors (Perkins & Berkowitz, 1986).; Method; In order to measure the attitudes and behaviors of high students, both LGBT and not, the purpose of this study completed by the use of a non-experimental research design. The dependent variable in this study was the likelihood of reporting by students who are bystanders to violence. The independent variables in this study were grade level, gender, sexual orientation of victim and bystander, barriers to reporting, social influences (group size, fear of retaliation, homophobia), knowledge of how to report, perception of administrative support, and lastly the presence or absence of a Gay/Straight Alliance (GSA).; Data Sources; This study examined the reporting attitudes and behaviors of a large sample of high school students, both heterosexual and homosexual. As indicated in the research design, the sample was drawn from three large southern California high schools. The sample contained both male and female, heterosexual and homosexual students, and four grade levels. The sample included a variety of ethnic groups, socio-economic groups, and student interest groups. The researchers' goal was to obtain between 200 and 400 responses by use of paper and pen surveys to draw valid and reliable conclusions from a total of app
