This document summarizes and compares different paradigms for intercultural communication research: positivistic, interpretive, and critical. The positivistic paradigm provides basic foundations of cross-cultural differences but may perpetuate stereotypes. The interpretive paradigm is well-suited for language studies through in-situ observation, though it may not be practical in all cases. The critical paradigm examines unexplored social issues related to culture but requires advanced language and analytical skills. Suggested readings are provided for each paradigm to further understanding of their strengths and challenges.
Plenary Speech given at ELT Research in Action (ELTRIA) Barcelona, May 10th 2024
In this talk, I will discuss the enduring relevance of the theme of authenticity in ELT. In particular, I want to discuss the place of “authentic” language in the post-truth era; the importance of knowing what is “real” when it comes to using a foreign language; and, of course, the role of Artificial Intelligence in a world where teachers still need to make meaningful connections with our students, and yet computers are altering the way these interaction might take place. I will discuss the importance of group dynamics and motivation when trying to forge a culture of authentic learning and language use in our classrooms. Near the end of the talk, I will share practical ideas for navigating this uncertain present and precarious future, and I hope to begin a meaningful discussion about the role and relevance of researching authenticity in action.

Participant observation was used to study drug dealers and smugglers. This qualitative method allowed the researchers to gain the trust of and interact with their subjects. However, it also presented challenges, such as subjects experiencing drug withdrawal during interviews, becoming malicious without warning. The researchers had to take precautions and balance overt and covert roles with different levels of relationships within the group to overcome issues.
Critical Discourse Analysis Of President Bush SpeechCandice Him
This document discusses critical discourse analysis (CDA) and its aims and potential social contributions. CDA analyzes language as social and cultural practice and engages in normative critique and judgment of discourse and society. CDA aims to educate people about power relations and achieve greater social equality. It also seeks to understand how discourse reproduces social domination and power imbalances between groups. CDA takes a structural approach to indirectly analyze the deeper causes and consequences of social issues.

Indigenous Standpoint Theory ^0 Decolonizing Methodologies 3-2024 3.pdfbonduran1
Indigenous Standpoint Theory and decolonizing methodologies are discussed in several documents. Key points:
1) A study uses an Indigenous worldview and decolonizing methodology to develop a culturally appropriate framework for assessing climate resilience of Indigenous communities.
2) Content analysis of role models selected by Indigenous youth found they tend to choose those matching their gender and other Indigenous people or people of color, such as mothers and Indigenous sportsmen.
3) Reflecting on positionality is important for sensitive research involving inequalities and power dynamics, such as with refugees, to navigate relations and explore overlooked elements.
Attitude In Students Argumentative Writing A Contrastive PerspectiveSara Alvarez
This article reports on a case study that analyzed the use of evaluative language in one Chinese EFL student's argumentative writing in both English and Chinese. It focuses on the subsystem of "attitude" from appraisal theory. The study found similar patterns in the use of "appreciation" items but differences in "affect" and "judgement" between the student's English and Chinese essays. It proposes that understanding EFL/ESL students' use of evaluative language requires considering both linguistic and socio-cultural perspectives.

Identity in flux_ Clinical implications of working with global nomads and thi...Jennifer T. Young, PsyD
This article explores identity development in global nomads and third culture kids who regularly navigate between multiple cultures. It discusses how globalization and increased mobility have led to more people having cross-cultural experiences that impact their sense of self. The author aims to understand identity development in this population and provide clinical implications and directions for future research. Suggestions are offered for working with global nomads and third culture kids to address how cultural transitions can influence identity and relationships.
Culturally Competent Leaders: Exploring Cultural IntelligenceNatascha Saunders
A group of Northeastern University doctoral students come together to present on the topic: Culturally Competent Leaders: Exploring Cultural Intelligence (CI) in Higher Education. Course: EDU 7281 Research Process (R2)
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Administrative leaders at a mid-sized liberal arts college that is in the beginning stages of an internationalization effort may have disparate perceptions of what it means to be culturally competent. Their ability to consistently show tolerance, empathy, respect, appreciation toward and the ability to work with people who are different from oneself is essential. The success of this internationalization process which includes diversifying the study body, establishing study programs, and globalizing curriculum hangs in the balance. This study will provide important insight into senior leaders’ impressions of cultural competence as a concept and it will inform professional development policy moving forward.

Using focused ethnography to understand brokering practices among internation...Sherrie Lee
Brokering practices are help-seeking interactions that bridge gaps in the seekers' knowledge and understanding of new cultural practices thus enabling them to access resources they would find difficult to do so on their own. For EAL (English as an Additional Language) students, these help-seeking interactions may involve getting others to translate, interpret or explain particular aspects of the host academic environment. In this research, focused ethnography (Knoblauch 2005) is used to investigate the nature of brokering practices among ten international EAL tertiary students during their initial academic semester of fifteen weeks. Focused ethnography specifically addresses constraints in the research context (e.g. time and access to informants), as well as capitalizes on technological tools such as digital recording devices. In seeking to understand brokering interactions and relationships students have with their brokers, conventional ethnographic methods were adapted, for example, digital ethnographic methods (Pink et al. 2015) were used instead of participant observation. Digital ethnographic methods allows a large amount of data to be recorded and reviewed, a feature of focused ethnography known as data intensity. While this form of intensity has been argued to compensate for a short period of research activity, this research suggests that another form of intensity – relational intensity – is just as important in addressing research constraints. Relational intensity refers to the researcher's ongoing responsiveness to the needs of research participants. The paper concludes that future focused ethnographic research should consider both data-related and relational forms of intensity in addressing research constraints.

Autoethnographic Writing Inside And Outside The Academy And EthicsBryce Nelson
This document discusses the ethics of autoethnographic writing both inside and outside of academia. It notes that published writers entering PhD programs are often surprised by university ethics requirements for works involving personal elements. The paper examines how autoethnography connects the personal and social, making it difficult to discuss oneself without discussing others. It also considers challenges of applying a retrospective methodology in practice-led research, which clashes with universities' proactive ethics procedures. The document identifies nine practical problems that can arise and argues for best practices around consent, transparency, and dialogue regarding autoethnographic research ethics.
This document provides biographical and professional information about Cheng-Yu Edwin Tsai, including his educational background, current position, publications, grants, presentations, and teaching experience. Tsai received his PhD from Harvard University and is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Translation at City University of Hong Kong. His research focuses on syntax, semantics, and Chinese linguistics.
This document summarizes a library instruction activity that aims to encourage learners to develop context-specific research plans. It does this by having learners unpack assumptions about what constitutes legitimate research and knowledge. Through discussion and reflection, learners consider how power shapes what is considered credible research and how mainstream institutions contribute to information hierarchies. The goal is for learners to contextualize academic institutions within broader information landscapes and consider ways of knowing that do not adhere to traditional academic paradigms in order to develop more equitable research practices.

Predatory Open Access Journals: Academic Beware!Anne-Wil Harzing
Provides an overview of my research into predatory open access journals, discussing their key characteristics and providing recommendations for academics to avoid them.
Makes the case that we should let metrics do the "heavy lifting" in the UK REF [Research Excellence Framework]. I show that a university-level ranking based on metrics (Microsoft Academic citations for all papers published with the university's affiliation between 2008-2013) correlates at 0.97 with the The REF power rating taken from Research Fortnight’s calculation. Using metrics to distribute research-related funding would free up a staggering amount of time and money and would allow us to come up with more creative and meaningful ways to build in a research quality component in the REF.

This document summarizes a library instruction activity that aims to encourage learners to develop context-specific research plans. It does this by having learners unpack assumptions about what constitutes legitimate research and knowledge. Through discussion and reflection, learners consider how power shapes what is considered credible research and how mainstream institutions contribute to information hierarchies. The goal is for learners to contextualize academic institutions within broader information landscapes and consider ways of knowing that do not adhere to traditional academic paradigms in order to develop more equitable research practices.

Predatory Open Access Journals: Academic Beware!Anne-Wil Harzing
Provides an overview of my research into predatory open access journals, discussing their key characteristics and providing recommendations for academics to avoid them.
Makes the case that we should let metrics do the "heavy lifting" in the UK REF [Research Excellence Framework]. I show that a university-level ranking based on metrics (Microsoft Academic citations for all papers published with the university's affiliation between 2008-2013) correlates at 0.97 with the The REF power rating taken from Research Fortnight’s calculation. Using metrics to distribute research-related funding would free up a staggering amount of time and money and would allow us to come up with more creative and meaningful ways to build in a research quality component in the REF.
Metrics vs peer review: Why metrics can (and should?) be applied in the Socia...Anne-Wil Harzing
Review the debates on metrics vs peer review and suggests that we are comparing the idealised version of peer review to the reductionist version of metrics. Instead we should compare the reality of peer review with the inclusive version of metrics.
This document discusses research on language in academia presented by Professor Anne-Wil Harzing. It covers three areas: 1) Language in International Business, focusing on how country of origin influences language policies and attitudes, and how language relates to power dynamics. 2) The impact of foreign language use on thoughts, feelings and behavior. Research shows language can influence responses through cultural accommodation. 3) Research on quality and impact of academic work, including critiques of citation databases and exploring how tools like Google Scholar provide a more inclusive view of global scholarship. The presentation aims to provide context for discussion on language issues in academia.
It is sooo unfair: internal vs external promotion in academiaAnne-Wil Harzing
This document discusses internal vs external promotion in academia and provides tips for effective promotion applications. It notes that external promotion is often easier to achieve as the criteria are more focused on publications and grants. However, internal promotion rewards a balanced record and improves persuasion skills. The document also acknowledges gender bias can make promotion harder for average female applicants. It concludes by encouraging persistence, a positive attitude, and enjoying the journey rather than focusing solely on promotions.
This presentation I first discusses PoP's history, its philosophy, as well as recent new features and data sources, before sharing some survey data on what people use Publish or Perish for and what their background is.
The major part of the presentation focused on specific use cases for Publish or Perish. In the presentation you will learn how to track your citations in different data sources, how to make your case for tenure or promotion, how to clean your Google Scholar Profile, and how to export both bibliographic details and query results or metrics.
Building your academic brand through engagement with social mediaAnne-Wil Harzing
What constitutes social media in an academic context?
Why do you (not) use social media?
Five key types of social media with different functions
Brief overview of key purpose and functionality
Look at a real-life example
Recommendations for how to use social media
Citation metrics across disciplines - Google Scholar, Scopus, and the Web of ...Anne-Wil Harzing
Key conclusions:
1. Will the use of citation metrics disadvantage the Social Sciences and Humanities?
* Not, if you use a database that includes publications important in those disciplines (e.g. books, national journals)
* Not, if you correct for differences in co-authorships
2. Is peer review better than metrics for the Social Sciences and Humanities?
* Yes, in a way…. The ideal version of peer review (informed, dedicated, and unbiased experts) is better than a reductionist version of metrics
* However, an inclusive version of metrics is probably better than the likely reality of peer review (hurried semi-experts, potentially influenced by journal outlet and affiliation)
Publish or Perish - Realising Google Scholar's potential to democratise citat...Anne-Wil Harzing
I discuss five key topics:
* Brief historical overview of “citizen bibliometrics”, i.e. use of bibliometrics by non-experts
* How Publish or Perish and Google Scholar have democratised citation analysis
* Publish or Perish users: who are they and how do they use PoP?
* Publish or Perish version 5: key new features
* What’s next for citizen bibliometrics?
This presentation first outlines five different aspects of impact. I then look at what we can learn from the measurement of academic impact, usually operationalised as citations. I show that four key recommendations for academic impact (multiple sources, multiple metrics, cross-disciplinary focus, and long term perspective) can be applied to non-academic impact as well. In addition, I argue that the four C's of citation impact (competence, communication, collaboration, and care) also apply to non-academic impact.

1) A longitudinal and cross-disciplinary study compared citation metrics from Google Scholar, Scopus, and the Web of Science for 146 professors across 5 disciplines.
2) It found significant differences between databases and disciplines in numbers of papers, citations, h-index, and an annualized h-index (hIa).
3) When using the hIa metric from Google Scholar to account for career length and co-authorship differences, disciplinary and gender differences were much smaller than when using the raw h-index from the Web of Science.
Keynote speech at the Eureopan Academy of Management at a panel on the future of business schools. Discusses the case for and against becoming more relevant.
The case for:
Engagement leads to better research
Ranking-mania leads us astray
Engagement through new media is easy
The case against:
Has the quest for relevance gone too far?
Are we asking too much of (junior) academics?

* Feelings: does foreign language use influence feelings about key business concepts?
* Behaviour: does foreign language influence the level of competitive vs. cooperative behaviour?
Current and future research agenda
Practice with PoP: How to use Publish or Perish EffectivelyAnne-Wil Harzing
Covers four key ways in which Publish or Perish can be used:
1. Search for an individual's citation metrics
2. Do a literature review
3. Prepare your case for tenure or promotion
4. Prepare for a meeting with your "academic hero"
Also covers the why's of citation analysis, different metrics and diffferent databases and shows how to use PoP's multi-query center.
This document summarizes best practices for conducting international mail surveys based on the author's experience with two large-scale surveys. Key points include: verifying address accuracy with locals; using international reply-paid mailing, personalized letters in local languages, and incentives to boost response rates, which varied widely by country from under 10% to over 40%; and considering alternatives like decentralized data collection to international mail surveys which often have low response rates for top managers. Timing of data collection can also impact results.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defectsSérgio Sacani
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
2. From Europe to Asia
For the first 20 years of my career my main geographical focus has
been on Western Europe and high-level comparisons between
different country clusters
Since 2013, much of my research has an East Asian focus. This
change in geographical focus has led to a focus on:
New phenomena: non-Western context provides new ideas, Ex-HCNs,

3. New Phenomena:
Ex-host country nationals
Ex-host country nationals as expatriates in MNCs
E.g. Ethnic Chinese born in the USA or Australia and expatriated to China
Is their shared ethnicity an advantage or disadvantage?
Depends on whether the expatriate and host country employee share the same view on the
importance of their ethnicity (ethnic identity confirmation)

5. New theory & concepts: When
Ethnocentrism is rational
Asian MNEs frequently use PCN expatriates in key positions of subsidiaries
Often seen as "less-developed practice" and emotional resistance to localisation
It can be a rational/pragmatic choice for MNEs from home countries with high
contextuality in communication and low English language proficiency
PCNs bridge communication between HQs and subsidiaries
Does a lack of familiarity with Asian societal context among Western researchers
result in an attribution error?

Academic Evaluation
Thomson Reuters Essential Science Indicators list the top 1% most cited
academics in the world
Out of the top 100 most productive academics:
68 are Chinese, 24 Korean, with the remaining 8 Indian or Japanese
Half are called Wang, Zhang, Li, Kim, or Lee
On average they publish 3 papers per day [yes per DAY!!]
#1 Y Wang publishes 9 papers a day in >100 disciplines and is affiliated with >500 universities
in nearly 100 countries
Smell a rat?
Thomson Reuters can’t tell one Asian from another
Nearly all Asian names on their list are composites of multiple (sometimes thousands)
academics
Thomson Reuters has a Science-based, Anglophone view of the world and
American and European information systems are lagging behind in the Asian century
