Auditory Processing Learning Disability, Suicidal Ideation, And Transformational Faith, Frank S. Bailey, Russell G. Yocum
Auditory Processing Learning Disability, Suicidal Ideation, And Transformational Faith, Frank S. Bailey, Russell G. Yocum
Russell Yocum
The purpose of this personal experience as a narrative investigation is to describe how an auditory processing learning disability exacerbated—and how spirituality and religiosity relieved—suicidal ideation, through the lived experiences of an individual born and raised in the United States. The study addresses: (a) how an auditory processing learning disability affected the primary participant’s view of life as a child, adolescent, and young adult, (b) how religiosity and spirituality helped to reframe that outlook after a near-fatal suicide attempt, and (c) how spirituality and religiosity serve to moderate the primary participant’s current view of life. Data were obtained from interviews, …

The resilience concept requires greater attention to human livelihoods if it is to address the limits to adaptation strategies and the development needs of the planet’s poorest and most vulnerable people. Although the concept of resilience is increasingly informing research and policy, its transfer from ecological theory to social systems leads to weak engagement with normative, social and political dimensions of climate change adaptation. A livelihood perspective helps to strengthen resilience thinking by placing greater emphasis on human needs and their agency, empowerment and human rights, and considering adaptive livelihood systems in the context of wider transformational changes.
Creating Community After Disaster: Norm Formation In Post-Hurricane Mitch Resettlements, Ryan Alaniz
Creating Community After Disaster: Norm Formation In Post-Hurricane Mitch Resettlements, Ryan Alaniz
Ryan C. Alaniz
How does a group of displaced disaster survivors living in a resettlement develop into a community with common vision, trust, collective efficacy and participation? Path dependency theory provides the framework to track the social development of resettlements over time. Drawing on 932 household surveys, 34 interviews, and nine months of ethnography, it is found that initial key processes and the creation and maintenance of social structures shape long-term outcomes. In the case of two similar post-Hurricane Mitch resettlements in Honduras, the development of social norms created unique community cultures. These social structures set the tone for the long-term social development …
Countering The Narrative: A Layered Perspective On Supporting Black Males In Education, Ramon Goings, Aaron Smith, Daniel Harris, Tanashala Wilson, Demetrius Lancaster
Countering The Narrative: A Layered Perspective On Supporting Black Males In Education, Ramon Goings, Aaron Smith, Daniel Harris, Tanashala Wilson, Demetrius Lancaster
Ramon Goings
The challenges facing Black males throughout the educational pipeline have been discussed by researchers in detail. However, missing from this research are discussions from the perspective of researchers, educators, and community members united on how to better support Black males. The purpose of this reflective piece is twofold. First, we address and contextualize the issues that Black boys and men face and have to overcome in academic and community settings from our various perspectives serving as a teacher candidate, in-service teacher, and higher education professionals. Second we provide recommendations for education stakeholders to help support Black males from our various …
Corruption, Responsiveness, And Political Reform In Brazil (1994-2014), Mauricio Izumi, Patrick Silva
Corruption, Responsiveness, And Political Reform In Brazil (1994-2014), Mauricio Izumi, Patrick Silva
Patrick Silva
Corruption is a frequent problem associated with developing countries. Brazil is not an exception; on the contrary, recent periods have been marked by major scandals. For the first time, president partisans were formally prosecuted and arrested because of corruption related crimes. The media played a central role in this process. In this paper, we examine the media role over legislative behavior of Brazilian senators during the period of the largest trial for corruption related crimes. We analyze the frequency of topics related to corruption on the media and how it affects speeches on the floor about corruption and political reform. …
Legislative Professionalization In Brazil: Causes And Effects Of Municipal Chambers Professionalization, Patrick Silva
Legislative Professionalization In Brazil: Causes And Effects Of Municipal Chambers Professionalization, Patrick Silva
Patrick Silva
Although professionalization is one of the key-elements for the development of legislative work and career, it has been explored almost exclusively in the U.S. environment. In this paper, I analyze legislative professionalization in Brazil. My first goal is to examine the level of professionalization in the Brazilian municipal legislative chambers and to explore some hypotheses as to what produces such results. Afterwards, I turn my focus to the effects of professionalization. Does professionalization have an effect on the number of bills introduced by legislators; Is the percentage of laws originating in the Legislative Branch affected by professionalization? In order to …
Mother-Daughter Relationships, Self-Esteem & Problem-Solving: Do Socialization Practices Matter?”, J. Camille Hall
Mother-Daughter Relationships, Self-Esteem & Problem-Solving: Do Socialization Practices Matter?”, J. Camille Hall
J. Camille Hall, PhD., LCSW
This article addresses how racial/ethnic socialization practices shape self-esteem and influence problem- solving skills among African Americans. Attachment theory provides a conceptual model for under- standing the importance of the parent-child relationship with regard to stress management. Empirical studies bolster the discussion of culturally relevant socialization practices that influence whether stress management among African American women is reduced or increased with each generation. The article concludes with practice, research, and pedagogical implications.

Mapping Lis Electives Across The Field: Collaborative Student Learning Outcome Development And Assessment, Bradley Wade Bishop, Theresa Parrish, Tony H. Grubesic
Bradley Wade Bishop
In higher education’s environment of accountability, the development and assessment of student learning outcomes (SLOs) are driven by both external stakeholder requirements for accreditation and internal institutional pressures to demonstrate student learning as the core function of universities and colleges. This paper presents a framework to reduce faculty workload and increase standardization of SLOs for LIS electives across multiple schools. The framework includes a value-added assessment with results that show a significant increase in the overall scores and specifically in areas of focus for the elective. This approach provides a framework for other popular LIS electives to collaborate across schools …

Faculty Perceptions Of Open Access Author Fees, Anne E. Rauh
Faculty Perceptions Of Open Access Author Fees, Anne E. Rauh
Anne Rauh
In fall 2013, librarians at Syracuse University and Cornell University surveyed STEM faculty to learn about their experiences with, and perceptions of, open access publishing and the author fees that may accompany that model. The results showed little experience with open access author fees but strong opinions about the open access model. This poster will highlight the cautious optimism found in the results along with suggestions for librarians to further faculty understanding of and participation in open access publishing.
Supporting The Expatriate Social Scientist: Faculty Research And Information Access In Post-Soviet Kazakhstan, Celia Emmelhainz
Supporting The Expatriate Social Scientist: Faculty Research And Information Access In Post-Soviet Kazakhstan, Celia Emmelhainz
Celia Emmelhainz
Librarians in America and Europe find that social scientists rely heavily on journal articles, specialized data, and feedback from colleagues in directing their research. This project uses 21 ethnographic interviews with librarians, students, and faculty at “Atameken University” in post-Soviet Kazakhstan to explore how social scientists adjust such research habits to a context of distant information sources and limited access. By developing technological adaptations to the local context, expatriate scholars can surmount most barriers to access—and yet librarians are then less able to effectively support research. Increased access to information and skilled librarians remains essential for Eurasian universities seeking to …
The Cost Of A Telegram: The Evolution Of The International Regulation Of The Telegraph., Alan J. Richardson
The Cost Of A Telegram: The Evolution Of The International Regulation Of The Telegraph., Alan J. Richardson
Alan J Richardson
The telegraph was the first practical use of electricity. It revolutionized commercial communication and facilitated the globalization of business. As the telegraph developed as a medium of international communication, regulation was needed to overcome administrative and technical issues, and, importantly, to establish accounting procedures for the distribution of the revenue to multiple national partners. This paper traces the evolution of revenue allocation models through three international organizations that ultimately lead to the creation of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) in 1932. The shifts in revenue allocation methods are consistent with a shift in focus of regulation from growth to efficiency …
‘The Internet Is Magic’: Technology, Intimacy And Transnational Families, Valerie Francisco
‘The Internet Is Magic’: Technology, Intimacy And Transnational Families, Valerie Francisco
Valerie Francisco
Drawing on multi-sited ethnography and qualitative research, I argue that the visual register in particular modes of communication technology like Skype and Facebook ushers in a different quality of relationships for transnational families. Most participants in this study are undocumented immigrants unable to return to their families for long periods of time because of legal consequences that will ban them from coming back and working in the USA. On the other hand, their families in the Philippines cannot visit the USA without proper documentation. The economic necessity of working abroad and legal conditions deter family reunification. Consequently, since these families …
