Item Donor heart selection: Evidence-based guidelines for providers(Elsevier, 2023) Copeland, Hannah; Knezevic, Ivan; Baran, David A.; Rao, Vivek; Pham, Michael; Gustafsson, Finn; Pinney, Sean; Lima, Brian; Masetti, Marco; Ciarka, Agnieszka; Rajagopalan, Navin; Torres, Adriana; Hsich, Eileen; Patel, Jignesh K.; Adams Goldraich, Livia; Colvin, Monica; Segovia, Javier; Ross, Heather; Ginwalla, Mahazarin; Sharif-Kashani, Babak; Farr, MaryJane A.; Potena, Luciano; Kobashigawa, Jon; Crespo-Leiro, Maria G.; Altman, Natasha; Wagner, Florian; Cook, Jennifer; Stosor, Valentina; Grossi, Paolo A.; Khush, Kiran; Yagdi, Tahir; Restaino, Susan; Tsui, Steven; Absi, Daniel; Sokos, George; Zuckermann, Andreas; Wayda, Brian; Felius, Joost; Hall, Shelley A.; Medicine, School of MedicineThe proposed donor heart selection guidelines provide evidence-based and expert-consensus recommendations for the selection of donor hearts following brain death. These recommendations were compiled by an international panel of experts based on an extensive literature review.Item Ethical Staffing in the COVID-19 Digital Age: Are a New Set of Ethical Practices Needed to Guide Selection?(IGI Global, 2022) Jones, Kevin; Saba, Nazish; IUPUC BusinessIn this chapter, the authors discuss ethical hiring practices in the digital age and argue for the necessity of ethical hiring processes. An examination of hiring before and during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the increased use of digital technologies to aid the ethical hiring process. A particular focus is on the increased use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to aid in screening and selection. The authors investigate unethical hiring practices, showing the potential adverse outcomes which may result. They conclude the chapter with a model and a set of guidelines to illustrate the components that enable ethical hiring processes and incorporate the use of AI.Item Gender stereotypes and selection disparity: an investigation of the theories which explain gender disparity(2015-07-07) Spice, Laura M.; Ashburn-Nardo, Leslie; Williams, Jane R.; Stockdale, Peggy S.While gender equality in the workplace is slowly improving, discrimination still exists. Past research has shown that women are underrepresented in both high status jobs, as well as stereotypically masculine careers. Two theories which explain gender discrimination –Lack of Fit Theory and Status Incongruence Hypothesis—have been widely supported but are rarely researched simultaneously. In this study participants rated hypothetical male and female job candidates applying to a hypothetical job that was either high status or low status, and in masculine domain or a feminine domain. Neither Lack of Fit nor Status Incongruence Hypothesis were fully supported. However, participants rated candidates applying for jobs in the feminine domain as less competent, hireable, and likeable. Participants also found high status candidates less hireable than low status candidates. These results suggest that within this study gender discrimination was more specific than robust, meaning research design should allow for detection of such nuanced discrimination.Item Short-Term Genetic Selection for Adolescent Locomotor Sensitivity to Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)(Springer Nature, 2018-05) Kasten, Chelsea R.; Zhang, Yanping; Mackie, Ken; Boehm, Stephen L., II; Psychology, School of ScienceCannabis use is linked to positive and negative outcomes. Identifying genetic targets of susceptibility to the negative effects of cannabinoid use is of growing importance. The current study sought to complete short-term selective breeding for adolescent sensitivity and resistance to the locomotor effects of a single 10 mg/kg THC dose in the open field. Selection for THC-locomotor sensitivity was moderately heritable, with the greatest estimates of heritability seen in females from the F2 to S3 generations. Selection for locomotor sensitivity also resulted in increased anxiety-like activity in the open field. These results are the first to indicate that adolescent THC-locomotor sensitivity can be influenced via selective breeding. Development of lines with a genetic predisposition for THC-sensitivity or resistance to locomotor effects allow for investigation of risk factors, differences in consequences of THC use, identification of correlated behavioral responses, and detection of genetic targets that may contribute to heightened cannabinoid sensitivity.
