Students On The Margins: Intersectionality And College Campus Sexual Assault, Margaret Irene Campe
Theses and Dissertations--Sociology
This three-paper dissertation quantitatively identifies and examines three different substantive areas using data from the American College Health Association’s Fall of 2016 National College Health Assessment (ACHA-NCHA). Specific areas of inquiry include, marginalized populations and college campus sexual assault, intersectional analyses of risk factors for college campus sexual assault, and drinking protective behavioral strategies as prevention tools for college campus sexual assault.

Women Into Advanced Manufacturing: Can Community College Open This Door?, Carissa Bradley Schutzman
Women Into Advanced Manufacturing: Can Community College Open This Door?, Carissa Bradley Schutzman
Theses and Dissertations--Educational Policy Studies and Evaluation
Women still rarely choose to seek employment in advanced manufacturing. Lack of familiarity with manufacturing jobs and education programs, lack of role models, and too few experiential opportunities contribute to women not choosing manufacturing jobs as well as other jobs traditionally held by men (Reha, Lufkin, & Harrison, 2009; St. Rose & Hill, 2013; Starobin & Laanan, 2008). Nontraditional jobs for women often provide higher wages and more opportunity for advancement than traditional jobs for women. This study is a qualitative thematic narrative analysis of factors that influenced women who chose an advanced manufacturing program at a community college to …

Students Identities And Teacher Expectations: A Factorial Experiment At The Intersection Of Race, Gender, And Ability, Amy E. Fisher
Theses and Dissertations--Educational, School, and Counseling Psychology
Behavioral and academic outcomes differ for students by race, ability, and gender within the K-12 public education system. Moreover, striking gaps exist at the intersection of race, ability, and gender, despite the similarity in severity and frequency of behavior between groups. Few studies, however, have examined the educational mechanisms that contribute to these gaps. Despite this, the scientific literature? shows that when educators have high expectations, students are more likely to be successful academically and behaviorally. Therefore, this study examines the inverse of this relationship by recognizing that biases likely influence behavior and academic student outcomes through expectancy bias for …
Believing In Achieving: Examining African American Women’S Doctoral Attainment, Reshanta Camea Hazelbaker
Believing In Achieving: Examining African American Women’S Doctoral Attainment, Reshanta Camea Hazelbaker
Theses and Dissertations--Educational, School, and Counseling Psychology
This research explored the intersectionality of race, class, and gender within the sources of self-efficacy (Bandura, 1997) underlying the socialization messages influencing African American women’s doctoral attainment beliefs. Twenty African American female/woman doctoral achievers completed an online survey, consisting of open-ended and multiple-choice response items, designed to identify and explore the sources of self-efficacy influencing African American women’s doctoral attainment beliefs. Eleven participants participated in focus interviews to expand upon and clarify initial survey responses.
Thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) and tenets of critical race theory (Ladson-Billings & Tate, 1995; McCoy & Rodricks, 2015) were used to analyze the …
