Post-Judgment Recovery And Its Effectuation On The Contemporary Debtors' Prison: A Treble Analysis On Collections Law In The State Of Florida, Andrew E. Weiner
The Pegasus Review: UCF Undergraduate Research Journal
This paper will analyze the conflict between creditors’ inherent right for satisfaction of their outstanding monetary judgments and the difficulties that debtors confront in satisfying the outstanding award levied against them. To establish the theory that the civil justice system has “resuscitated” the antebellum debtors’ prison and infringed upon principles of civil liberties, this paper will examine evidence in a three-pronged analysis of economics, history, and a reflection on the American legal systems.

Rosen Research Review
Restaurant review websites have mushroomed in popularity – and proliferated – as people increasingly go online to share and gather information about what they can expect of a dining experience at a particular restaurant. However, the extent to which potential diners are likely to accept information posted on these review websites, when making dining decisions, has not yet been fully explored. Dr. Juhee Kang reports a predictive model, designed with a collaborator to establish the influence of various factors on a review website user’s attitude and intention to dine at a restaurant.

Success Factors In Restaurant Crowdfunding, Mehmet Altin, Dipendra Singh
Success Factors In Restaurant Crowdfunding, Mehmet Altin, Dipendra Singh
Rosen Research Review
According to the US Department of Agriculture, Americans now spend more on food away from home than at home. Perhaps unsurprisingly, therefore, more and more would-be food entrepreneurs want to enter the restaurant market. Raising finance can be a problem but crowdfunding provides a new route for people to realize their dreams. UCF Rosen College of Hospitality Management’s Assistant Professors of Hospitality Services Mehmet Altin and Dipendra Singh, and Ph.D. candidate Gabriela Lelo de Larrea, are among the first to conduct empirical research to discover what determines crowdfunding success in start-up restaurants.

Gregory from UCF Rosen College of Hospitality Management and her collaborators have provided a robust insight into this particular diversification.

Hospitality And Tourism: Delving Deeper Into Diversity Management, Fevzi Okumus
Rosen Research Review
‘We’re in the people business.’ Long established as the mantra of hospitality and tourism, the sector has substantial expertise in sharpening customer care skills to gain a marketing edge. But customers are only half the equation. Less studied is the expertise of companies in managing their workforce – the employees who, more than in any other industry, are customer-facing. New research led by Dr. Fevzi Okumus, UCF Rosen College’s Professor of Hospitality Services, and his collaborator, a former Ph.D. student from Rosen College, looks at an increasingly important aspect of the sector’s employment practice: diversity management.
