Neocolonialism Construction And Solutions, Stephanie Parenti
HIM 1990-2015
Many nation-states have their potential for growth hindered by the involvement of developed nations. These low-income nation-states are primarily located on the continent of Africa. There are three parts to this phenomenon of neocolonialism which is the process of continuing involvement of developed nations in developing nations that creates a negative growth in those nations. The research I've conducted is in three parts. The first consists of analyzing the social construction of neocolonialism, how the phenomenon occurs, and where it stems from.

HIM 1990-2015

Results reveal significant differences between traditional and nontraditional students on a subscale of the Time Management Behavior …

Profiling By Any Other Name Could Be The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, Evan M. Malloy
HIM 1990-2015

The research presented reveals a pattern of profiling and injustices against many different groups of Americans throughout the history of United States surveillance laws starting with the illegal alcohol producers in the 1920's.

As God As My Witness: A Contemporary Analysis Of Theology's Presence In The Courtroom As It Relates To The "Oath Or Affirmation" Requirement Within The Florida Rules Of Evidence, Nicholas Scott Gurney
HIM 1990-2015
The existence of the oath in the courtroom can be traced back thousands of years throughout history, but the use, meaning, and effect of the oath in law has changed dramatically. The oath as we know it was once a powerful truth-telling instrument that our ancestors used to call upon a higher power. It was the belief of many that the oath itself was not sworn to man or state, but rather directly to a deity. The oath has since then evolved as a result of ever changing beliefs, fueled by increasing tolerance, shaping the oath into more of a …

The present study examined the effects of ADHD on eye tracking while driving. Ten participants consisting of both ADHD and individuals who do not have ADHD were included in this study. It was hypothesized that individuals who have ADHD will make more saccadic eye movements and thus shorter fixations than individuals who do not have ADHD. Furthermore, it was hypothesized that despite the fact …
