The primary outcome was awareness of genetic testing for high-risk cancer (GTHC). We …
How And Why Do Race And Gender Affect Adhd Diagnosis Levels?, Caitlin N. Bennett
How And Why Do Race And Gender Affect Adhd Diagnosis Levels?, Caitlin N. Bennett
Capstone Showcase
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disorder of the brain that impairs one’s daily functioning and focus. Previous research has shown that two groups are disproportionately under-diagnosed: females and Black people. It is important to understand why these groups, and possibly others, are under-diagnosed as those without a diagnosis do not get the treatment that they need. Literature reveals that differences in symptom presentation (inattentive vs. hyperactive), biases in symptom reports, barriers to accessing mental healthcare, and negative stigmas about, and within, certain groups lead to the under-diagnosis of females and Black people. In conclusion the diagnostic criteria of ADHD …

Racial Inequalities In Canadian Academia: The Case For Examining Within Discipline Variation, Sydney O. Joao Ms, Kate Choi, Patrick Denice
Racial Inequalities In Canadian Academia: The Case For Examining Within Discipline Variation, Sydney O. Joao Ms, Kate Choi, Patrick Denice
Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference
My research used data available in the public domain to establish racial/ethnic inequality in pay and rank in the Social Science faculty and the Medical School in a university in Southwestern Ontario. I specifically focused on the faculty of Social Science and Medicine and Dentistry School as they are among the biggest faculties on campus. I retrieved faculty information from information available to the public and used this to determine salary, race, gender, rank, and tenure status (if applicable). Visible minorities were paid lower in the faculty of Social Science compared to their white counterparts. However, in the Medical School, …
Victims Of Terrorism At The Intersection Of Race And Gender, Charlotte Lang, Candice Ortbals
Victims Of Terrorism At The Intersection Of Race And Gender, Charlotte Lang, Candice Ortbals
Seaver College Research And Scholarly Achievement Symposium
El-Nawawy and El-Masry (2017) argue that media “devalue black lives” and “race, then, cannot be ignored as a factor” when considering the media and political treatment of terrorism’s victims (2017, 1810). Furthermore, media give less coverage to victims of terrorism in attacks occurring in countries outside the Global North (Nevalsky 2015). In this paper, we theorize race and terrorism along with gender. We discuss the ways that scholarship, media, and political actors give (or do not give) attention to victims of terrorism. We show through a historical analysis of Rapoport’s waves of terrorism and an analysis of recent cases of …
Myth, Power, And Justice: The Danger Of A Single Story, Christen H. Clougherty
Myth, Power, And Justice: The Danger Of A Single Story, Christen H. Clougherty
National Youth Advocacy and Resilience Conference
If we hear only a single story about a group, we risk a critical misunderstanding. In this session, learn to critically analyze assumptions of single stories and dominant narratives about community partners. Engage in hands-on activities to explore this issue as it relates to race, poverty, and social justice. Leave with classroom activities to take back to your classroom.
Racist Motifs In Design, Omari Souza
Racist Motifs In Design, Omari Souza
Pluriversal Design Conference Series
Our society is steeped in visual narratives, often utilized by journalists, politicians, and other opinion leaders to perpetuate cultural 'myths' about the products they offer and the consumers who 'need' them. During the Jim Crow era, the commercial goods produced and distributed by western powers exalted Eurocentrism while simultaneously maligning indigenous cultures in much of Asia, Africa, and the Americas. The packaged goods and commercial ads of this era assisted in the ontological construct of European superiority. Like gender, race is a social construct that changes over time and from place to place. Racism, above all, is a systemized hierarchy …
Gender Bias And Race Bias In Student Evaluations Of Teaching, Megan Boyce, Audree Britte
Gender Bias And Race Bias In Student Evaluations Of Teaching, Megan Boyce, Audree Britte
Student Research Symposium
There is mixed evidence regarding the presence of gender bias in student evaluations of teaching (Foote, Harmon, & Mayo, 2003; Morgan et al., 2016). Given the importance placed on student evaluations of teaching in regards to promotion and tenure, it is essential to determine whether gender bias is present and to what extent (Laube, Massoni, Sprague, & Ferber, 2007). Many previous studies have shown there is strong evidence of implicit bias in the traits we expect to see from female and male professors, but these studies have been limited by how they identify the presence of bias (e.g. Basow, 1995; …
The Cultivation Theory And Reality Television: An Old Theory With A Modern Twist, Jeffrey Weiss
The Cultivation Theory And Reality Television: An Old Theory With A Modern Twist, Jeffrey Weiss
Capstone Showcase
George Gerbner, a Hungarian-born professor of communication, founded the cultivation theory, one of the most popular and regarded theories in the communications world. Developed in the mid 20th century, the theory focus on the long-term effects of television on people. Longer exposure to signs, images and people on television cultivates their perception of reality in the real world. The television became a household staple during this time. Families often spent time together watching programming together, however, it played out different effects for each person. Television's constant visual and auditory stimulation on a person made it easier to cultivate certain messages, …
Perceptions Of Ally Confrontations, Celine Jusuf
Perceptions Of Ally Confrontations, Celine Jusuf
Purdue Undergraduate Research Conference
Research related to interpersonal confrontations, where one person points out a way in which another person had engaged in stereotypical or prejudicial bias, has provided a wealth of knowledge about factors that influence the extent to which confrontations reduce bias (e.g., Czopp, Monteith, & Mark, 2006; Chaney & Sanchez, 2017; Mallet & Wagner, 2011; Parker, Monteith, Moss-Racusin, & Van Camp, 2018). However, how do minority-group members perceive confrontations on behalf of their social/ethnic group, and does group membership of the confronter matter? The present experiment investigates how Asian women perceive confrontations of prejudice against their group when performed by an …
The Timeliness Of Hamilton: An American Musical, Erika Bias
The Timeliness Of Hamilton: An American Musical, Erika Bias
COLA Research and Creativity Conference
In 2015, Hamilton: An American Musical was a sweeping success on Broadway—the first rap and hip-hop display of its kind. In 2019, the show's relevance remains strong. When a revolutionary (pun intended) production like Hamilton sweeps the nation, the question raised is: Why? What makes Hamilton so special? The author suggests that the reason Hamilton has been received with overwhelming positivity by everyone from Barack Obama, to Dick Cheney, to Weird Al Yankovic (Hayes & Gale 42-43) is its perfectly placed rhetorical situation. It is difficult to say whether, in another time and place, this Broadway smash hit, with its …

Toward A Theology Of Transformation: Destroying The Sycamore Tree Of White Supremacy, Hannah Kathleen Griggs
Toward A Theology Of Transformation: Destroying The Sycamore Tree Of White Supremacy, Hannah Kathleen Griggs
Celebration of Learning
Black liberation theologians come to terms with white supremacy by collectively remembering the story of the Exodus and Jesus' crucifixion--affirming God's preference for freedom and in-the-world salvation. The particular history of white American Christianity requires a different story to provide the foundation for our social memory. As white American Christians, we have certain blind spots—blind spots created by historical and social privileges that have given white people unequal access to power and resources. The story of Zacchaeus has the potential to help reframe white Christianity’s conception of race relations in the United States, shifting from a reconciliation paradigm to a …
Student Perceptions Of A White University Mascot, Ellen Carroll
Student Perceptions Of A White University Mascot, Ellen Carroll
Scholars Week
In November 2015, Western Washington University cancelled classes when a debate over changing the school’s mascot—an identifiably White Viking—resulted in hate speech and threats toward students of color. While some students held that the mascot could be offensive to non-White students who are unrepresented by the symbol of a White male, others felt the debate to be trivial. This event raises the question of how the university’s White mascot impacts its students. Scholars have recently begun to study views regarding Native American mascots, however there is an empirical gap concerning how mascots of other identifiable racial/ethnic groups are perceived. This …
Influence Of Race, Religion And Socioeconomic Status On The Diet And Physical Activity Of A Household, Kaitlyn Murphy, Juliana Merighi
Influence Of Race, Religion And Socioeconomic Status On The Diet And Physical Activity Of A Household, Kaitlyn Murphy, Juliana Merighi
Academic Festival
With high rates of obesity among children, additional research is needed on how different social determinants play a role in a household’s health. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine specifically if race, religion or socioeconomic status (SES) has a greater influence on a child’s diet habits and physical activity (PA). Methods:This cross sectional study included an online questionnaire via SurveyMonkey that was administered to Sacred Heart University’s faculty and staff and posted on social media. The questionnaire had 10 items that assessed the eating and physical activity of a household in relation to their race, religion …
Actions Speak Louder Than Words: The Impact Of Gender And Race On Personal Space, Hannah Fetty
Actions Speak Louder Than Words: The Impact Of Gender And Race On Personal Space, Hannah Fetty
COLA Research and Creativity Conference
Previous research suggests that implicit biases often present themselves out of conscious awareness in actions, behaviors, feelings, and emotions (Dovidio, Kawakami, & Gaertner, 2002; Swim, Aikin, Hall & Hunter, 1995). The present research is an observational study that seeks to investigate these biases by examining cues present in nonverbal behavior. This study will specifically focus on bias surrounding gender and race and will use the distance that individuals stand apart from one another in various lines in public places to do so. There are two general hypotheses. The first hypothesis predicts that individuals will stand closer to those who are …
We Just Need To Pee: Bathroom Bills And The Intersection Of Human Rights, Gender, And Race, Lena Tenney
We Just Need To Pee: Bathroom Bills And The Intersection Of Human Rights, Gender, And Race, Lena Tenney
Biennial Conference: The Social Practice of Human Rights
Although rarely publicly discussed, bathrooms are a fundamental element of everyday life. In fact, the majority of the population does not question their right or ability to access public restroom facilities because they are a mundane aspect of daily routine. However, the recent rise of “bathroom bills” in state legislatures has sparked significant media coverage and highlighted activist movements seeking to guarantee safe, affirming, and legally protected access to bathrooms for people of all gender identities and expressions.
This paper will illustrate that bathroom access is not only a matter of public policy, but also a question of human rights. …
How Big Is Your Bubble? Effects Of Race And Gender On Personal Space, Alicia T. Pelfrey
How Big Is Your Bubble? Effects Of Race And Gender On Personal Space, Alicia T. Pelfrey
COLA Research and Creativity Conference
When individuals interact in a public setting, non-verbal behavior may demonstrate preferences or biases toward others. For example, research suggests that women only need to flash a smile to appear non-threatening to others in public settings (Hall, 1993). Furthermore, Blacks may experience prejudice through non-verbal behavior in interracial interactions (Dovidio, Kawakani, & Gaertner, 2002). The present research sought to investigate non-verbal behavior in terms of gender and race. Specifically, 120 individuals were observed as they stood in line at various locations in Huntington, West Virginia. The distance between individuals was estimated and recorded. There were two hypotheses for the present …
Commentary On “The Stance Of Personal Public Apology”: Transgression & Apologia: Disjoining Standpoints Of Justice, Publicity And Drama, G Thomas Goodnight
Commentary On “The Stance Of Personal Public Apology”: Transgression & Apologia: Disjoining Standpoints Of Justice, Publicity And Drama, G Thomas Goodnight
OSSA Conference Archive
This paper responds to Professor Martha Cheng’s standpoint analysis of transgression and apologia in three twenty first century media-promoted controversies: Tiger Woods, Paula Deen, and Bryan Williams. Argument strategies are differentiated by genres that aim at justice, publicity, and drama. Forensics, public relations, and entertainment mix across media apparatus. I emphasize the disjunctures among these acts of argument and thereby provide an alternative to analysis and synthesis of the argumentation as discourse.
Swing It Sister: The Influence Of Female Jazz Musicians On Music And Society, Kirsten Saur
Swing It Sister: The Influence Of Female Jazz Musicians On Music And Society, Kirsten Saur
The Research and Scholarship Symposium (2013-2019)
Female jazz vocalists, both as soloists and in groups, and instrumentalists, both as solo artists and in ensembles, of the jazz era influenced music and society in their own times and in later times. They added new musical concepts, added new vocal styles, worked to change the society they lived in, and worked hard to find their place in music no matter what got in their way, making them inspirations for future generations of women striving to succeed in the world. This paper looks at how these women of jazz influenced music, society, and future generations of women through their …
Transgender Issues In Film, Eulalah R. Prater Mx
Transgender Issues In Film, Eulalah R. Prater Mx
SEWSA 2016 Intersectionality in the New Millennium: An Assessment of Culture, Power, and Society
The question of gender inequality in film has been widely debated, both within the industry as well as within gender studies, with scholars such as Dr. Stacy L. Smith, Marc Choueiti, Elizabeth Scofeils, Dr. Katherine Pieper and Melissa Rigney arguing about gender inequality in modern popular films. However, these critics ignore the issue of trans-inclusive representation. My paper addresses the issue of trans* representation in modern film through comparative analysis with Greek theatre and early American film. I argue that in order to better understand lack of non-cis-gendered representation, it is instructive to connect this phenomenon to blackface in early …

This mixed methods study surveyed 527 engineers and interviewed eight female engineers to examine the current culture climate for diversity in engineering worksites, and how gender, race, and age intersect and affect engineers‘ perceptions of organizational inclusiveness and the learning environment surrounding diversity. Keywords: STEM, women, race, culture climate, diversity, work, mixed methods.
From Objects To Subjects: Voices, Perspectives, Histories, And Learning In The South Asian American Experience, Edith Gnanadass, Ian Baptiste
From Objects To Subjects: Voices, Perspectives, Histories, And Learning In The South Asian American Experience, Edith Gnanadass, Ian Baptiste
Adult Education Research Conference
Using a postcolonial lens, this paper critiques scholarly discourse on the experiences of South Asian Americans (SAAs) in the United States as being too othering and too homogenized. In most of that discourse, SAAs are treated as objects who may only be reactive to dominant society and culture; their racialized experiences are also muted. Treating SAAs as subjects, this paper presents a way to enrich their experiences, paying particular attention to how those experiences have been racialized. Drawing upon, but also critiquing cultural historical activity theory, the paper presents an alternative way to think about and empirically examine learning.
What Do You Do When The Law Doesn’T Work? Adult Educators’ Role In Fighting Workplace Discrimination, Ann Brooks, Tamara Clunis
What Do You Do When The Law Doesn’T Work? Adult Educators’ Role In Fighting Workplace Discrimination, Ann Brooks, Tamara Clunis
Adult Education Research Conference
An analysis of research suggests that ethnic/racial group members lack informal access to developmental opportunities in the workplace. Legal scholars critique Title VII law as ineffective in current organizations. Research shows the work of adult educators is critical in fighting discrimination in the absence of effective legal protection.
