Fact, Fiction or Falsehood? Combatting Modern Misinformation
Defensive reading in the COVID era. Associate Professor Jevin West of the UW’s Center for an Informed Public will look at online practices that target older adults or put them at risk. New platforms for human interaction and information sharing have opened the door to misinformation, disinformation and other forms of networked manipulation, which diminish trust in democratic institutions such as science and journalism. West will help us spot selection bias and muddled data visualization, distinguish between correlation and causation, and combat modern misinformation in a lively session full of examples drawn from today’s news.

In this training participants will learn the ins and outs of writing effective and accessible Functional Behavior Assessments (FBA) and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIP). Drawing from real world scenarios, participants will engage in rigorous evaluation of data, think critically about the function of behavior and learn to create function-based intervention plans. This interactive workshop will ask participants to think critically about how we define behavior, how we determine the function or motivation of behavior, and what we ask staff to do to address these challenging behaviors. Participants should come to this training with basic knowledge of the components of an FBA and BIP as well as an array of behavioral strategies to consider. This training will focus on clear and effective written communication as opposed to the learning of behavioral strategies. If you desire to have highly effective, well received FBA and BIPs, this is the training for you!

, Curated by Stefan Leandro Gonzales, Dare to Judge is an off-site solo exhibition featuring a collection of images and objects sourced and created by artist Sean Sullivan in Gonzales’ domestic gallery space in their Seattle, Washington, home. Sullivan is a Masc Pansexual artist working in the field of photography. Their recent work challenges the gap generated between gender identities through a collection of high-key self-portraits shot in their apartment in Pullman, Washington. For many queer individuals, their journey starts in the confines of their domestic living space. It can be seen as both a comforting and hostile environment in which to embark on this journey.

Stress is experienced in the body as tension. To manage stress we have several choices: reduce or eliminate the stressor, think about the stressor differently so it no longer causes tension or change the way our body reacts to stress. The course will address the third option through exploring a variety of relaxation techniques to calm the body and mind. The class will allow participants to learn and experience several simple relaxation tools such as progressive muscle relaxation, abdominal relaxation breathing, and visualization.

Seattle, Washington was the first city in the United States to be severely impacted by COVID-19. In response to the outbreak, state and local governments enacted a statewide shelter-in-place order and other policies to stem the spread of the disease. This panel will describe a recently launched National Science Foundation-funded study that involves repeat street view surveys for 12 months across a broad and demographically diverse cross-section of Seattle. The data being collected will allow the team to assess: (1) the community impact of the pandemic on business operations, transportation networks, and other community assets, (2) the rate and quality of recovery following shelter-in-place, and how this varies locally based on a community's socioeconomic characteristics, and (3) the impact of shelter-in-place policy relaxation on communities following this disaster. The street view surveys are being conducted using the NSF-supported NHERI RAPID facility's vehicle-mounted mobile imaging system, located at the…

In this training participants will learn the ins and outs of writing effective and accessible Functional Behavior Assessments (FBA) and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIP). Drawing from real world scenarios, participants will engage in rigorous evaluation of data, think critically about the function of behavior and learn to create function-based intervention plans. This interactive workshop will ask participants to think critically about how we define behavior, how we determine the function or motivation of behavior, and what we ask staff to do to address these challenging behaviors. Participants should come to this training with basic knowledge of the components of an FBA and BIP as well as an array of behavioral strategies to consider. This training will focus on clear and effective written communication as opposed to the learning of behavioral strategies. If you desire to have highly effective, well received FBA and BIPs, this is the training for you!

, Abstract: Poor adherence to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and antiretroviral therapy (ART) can lead to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition and emergence of drug-resistant infections, respectively. Measurement of antiviral drug levels provides objective adherence information that may help prevent adverse health outcomes. HIV drug level measurement is typically carried out using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) which is centralized, heavily instrumented, and expensive and is thus unsuitable and unavailable for routine use in clinical settings. We developed the REverSe TRanscrIptase Chain Termination (RESTRICT) assay as a rapid and accessible measurement…

Psychology Department Promotion Talk with Susan Joslyn, PhD
Susan Joslyn, PhD
Associate Professor, University of Washington
Uncertainty Information & Non-Expert Decisions
People regularly make decisions under uncertainty, sometimes with critical consequences such as those we face today in the context of the Coronavirus pandemic. The research program described in this talk explores the benefit of including numeric uncertainty information in predictions intended for non-experts, largely in the context of weather and climate. Unlike earlier work in behavioral economics that compared peoples’ decisions under uncertainty to economically rational standards, discovering numerous reasoning errors, the experiments described here compared decisions made by people with uncertainty information to decisions made by people with single value forecasts alone. Our results suggest that numeric uncertainty estimates allow users to better differentiate situations that do and do not require precautionary action while also increasing trust in the forecast. However, this work also…

REGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT IS REQUIRED (SEE LINK BELOW)
In 2010, Australian Aboriginal elders and activists began to issue First Nation passports to refugees and asylum seekers detained and deterred under the terms of Australian border security. How might this gesture of welcome be read in light of contending sovereignties at stake? In this talk McNevin reflects on the epistemic conditions that shape the reception of this gesture. Building out from this example, she draws on Indigenous articulations of sovereignty, responsibility and care as sources of theory about hospitality. Examining some of the limits to engaging those ideas in abstraction, she works towards a notion of epistemic hospitality as a way of approaching an exchange of knowledges about hospitality between putative hosts and guests, and across the putative terrain of the global north and south.
Anne McNevin is Associate Professor of Politics at The New School. She is author of Contesting Citizenship: Irregular Migrants and New Frontiers of…

In this training participants will learn the ins and outs of writing effective and accessible Functional Behavior Assessments (FBA) and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIP). Drawing from real world scenarios, participants will engage in rigorous evaluation of data, think critically about the function of behavior and learn to create function-based intervention plans. This interactive workshop will ask participants to think critically about how we define behavior, how we determine the function or motivation of behavior, and what we ask staff to do to address these challenging behaviors. Participants should come to this training with basic knowledge of the components of an FBA and BIP as well as an array of behavioral strategies to consider. This training will focus on clear and effective written communication as opposed to the learning of behavioral strategies. If you desire to have highly effective, well received FBA and BIPs, this is the training for you!

Dr. Yuta Hashimoto from National Museum of Japanese History will give a talk on a collaborative project that extracts data on earthquakes from premodern Japanese documents for scientific and historical analysis.
Since 2014, Dr. Hashimoto has been a member of the Historical Earthquake Study Group (HESG) at Kyoto University and has worked on the development of IT systems for the group. HESG is a joint group of seismologists and historians who have been studying pre-modern earthquake records for seismic research and disaster prevention. Since the instrumental observation of earthquakes in Japan only began after the end of the nineteenth century, it is important that written records to be transcribed in order to study past earthquakes. Therefore, Japanese seismologists have developed extensive collaborations with historians and archivists.
However, the number of records to be transcribed is vast and cannot be handled by a small group of scholars. This prompted the members of HESG to consider using…

We will walk through some practical guidelines and three specific methods that entrepreneurs can use to guide their valuation negotiations.

[VIRTUAL] Colloquium Talk: Simone Chambers (University of California Irvine)
Abstract
In this lecture, I argue that democratic theory is responding to democratic crisis in innovative and promising ways that not only involve rethinking concepts but also redesigning institutions for the 21st century.
The rise of populism and claims that electoral and plebiscitary success authorizes speaking on behalf of the people has generated an intense revisiting of the concept of the people. A proceduralized idea of the people is taking shape and I argue this has its institutional reflection in innovative designs for referendums. Today we see a new take on representation in the form of sortition and randomly selected citizen assemblies. Here I argue that although this conceptual and institutional innovation holds a lot of promise, it is a mistake to think of sortition as replacing electoral representation rather than perfecting it. Finally, democratic theory has had to confront threats to information acquisition and undistorted communication posed by new technologies. An updated concept of the publ…

Traditional protocols for diagnosing autism have been criticized for focusing too heavily on deficits and problems and failing to generalize across populations.

In addition, an effective, meaningful method for communicating both strengths and challenges at the feedback session is showcased. Teleassessment strategies are becoming increasingly important in light of the global pandemic and this workshop will equip providers with tools that can be used effectively for remote assessments.

Psychology Department Promotion Talk with Chantel Prat, PhD
Chantel Prat, PhD
Associate Professor, University of Washington
The Cognitive Neuroscience of Aptitude
What does it mean to have potential? Traditional behavioral assessments of aptitude are limited in at least three critical ways. First, such tests are typically developed in iteration with theories of aptitude, leading to circular definitions that result in “aptitude is what aptitude tests measure” type conundrums. Second, it is nearly impossible to measure “pure” potential. As such, aptitude tests often rely on measures of what an individual can already do to predict future performance. Such indices may be influenced by systematic biases and inequities related to previous experiences and access to resources. Third, there is often a trade-off between the predictive utility of a behavioral measure, and the explanatory power that the measure provides for understanding the relation between the way an individual’s mind works, and the behavior of interest. Over the past six years, I have been systematically…

Bird Migration (online)
Fall migration at the Union Bay Natural Area starts with waves of shorebirds from the tundra flowing through our state bringing up to 29 different species of sandpipers to stop with us a little while and fuel up before they continue some flying as far as South America on their long journey to their wintering grounds. As the season advances the flow of birds increases as the tropical flycatchers leave us and more birds begin to come down from Alaska. Billions of birds pass through North America before the migration ends. Find out from Master Birder Connie Sidles how and why birds migrate and get a peek at the species that we're most likely to see here.

Since the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment, every time African Americans have made advances towards full participation in our democracy, White reaction has fueled a deliberate and relentless rollback of their gains. The end of the Civil War and Reconstruction was greeted with the Black Codes and Jim Crow. Then there was the so-called Southern Strategy and the War on Drugs that disenfranchised millions of African Americans while propelling presidents Nixon and Reagan into the White House. Anderson carefully links these and other historical flashpoints when social progress for African Americans was countered by deliberate and cleverly crafted opposition. She pulls back the veil that has long covered actions made in the name of protecting democracy, fiscal responsibility, or protection against fraud, and renders visible the long lineage of White rage, adding an important new dimension to the national conversation about race in America.
