Investigating Integrated Domestic Violence Courts: Lessons From New York, Jennifer Koshan
Investigating Integrated Domestic Violence Courts: Lessons From New York, Jennifer Koshan
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
Extensive law and policy reforms in the area of domestic violence have occurred in the last several decades in the United States and Canada, the latest being the development of specialized domestic violence (DV) courts. DV courts typically operate in the criminal realm, particularly in Canada. A recent innovation that is relatively unique in the United States is integrated domestic violence (IDV) courts, where criminal, civil, and family matters are heard together in a one judge/one family model. This article examines the literature on DV and IDV courts in Canada and the United States, and situates these reforms in the …
"Now These Things Happened As Examples For Us" (1 Cor. 10:6):The Biblical-Narrative Depiction Of Human Sinfulness, Stephen Frederick Jenks
"Now These Things Happened As Examples For Us" (1 Cor. 10:6):The Biblical-Narrative Depiction Of Human Sinfulness, Stephen Frederick Jenks
Dissertations (1934 -)
For several decades voices from various sectors of Christianity have decried the loss of compelling language for sin. The atrophying of sin language is of no small moment due to the organic connection between theological loci. Sin talk relates to salvation-talk, human-talk, and Christ-talk. Further, the loss of compelling sin language threatens to silence the church's voice in the culture.
Both classic and contemporary theologies of sin, pursuing the essentialist methods of the past, attempt to define sin and derive the fullness of the doctrine of sin from these distillations. However, many of these renderings of sin are insufficiently attentive …
Argument In Poetry: (Re)Defining The Middle English Debate In Academic, Popular, And Physical Contexts, Kathleen R. Burt
Argument In Poetry: (Re)Defining The Middle English Debate In Academic, Popular, And Physical Contexts, Kathleen R. Burt
Dissertations (1934 -)
The core problem that drives my dissertation is to find a definition for what has been called Middle English “debate poetry” that accounts for the wide variety of themes, topics, and styles which poems labeled as ‘debates’ cover. The limitations of overly focused and restrictive definitions of the term ‘debate poetry’ encountered by previous scholars illustrates the initial problem of using a generic term that lacks a common vocabulary or framework for discussion. The result has been that each scholar who investigated a poem linked to this tradition used a different definition suited to his or her particular text(s) of …

A Social Cognjtive Leaming Experience For Baccalaureate Nursing Students: Enhancing The Recognition And Management Of The Patient With Sepsis, Lindsey Unterseher
Theses and Dissertations
Sepsis is the leading cause of death in hospitals in the United States. Case fatality rate has remained between 30% - 50% for the past three decades. Furthennore, survivors of sepsis and septic shock are observed to have a higher 6- and 12-month mortality rate and a significantly lower health-related quality of life. Sepsis is characterized by an infection with a systemic inflammatory response and can have devastating consequences if not recognized and treated early. In the demanding environment of nursing education today, instruction on fundamental infonnation related to the clinical picture of sepsis is provided. However, considering the potentially …
Dialectical Behavior Therapy For Borderline Personality Disorders, Julie Nohre
Dialectical Behavior Therapy For Borderline Personality Disorders, Julie Nohre
Theses and Dissertations
Often individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) suffer from emotion dysregulation: uncontrollable mood swings, impaired thought processes, impulsive and reckless behaviors, and chaotic relationships (National Institute of Mental Health, 2012) thus impairing their functional abilities and their quality oflife. There is no known cause at this time; however, researchers suggest that genetics, abnormal brain development, and environment play a major factor the development of a BPD. Not only is the individual affected but also those who surround the patient such as families, fiiends, society, health care professionals, and community providers. The constant maladaptive behaviors often lead to minimal supports thus …

Promoting Parenting Success In Parents With Intellectual Disabilities, Beth S. Juarez
Promoting Parenting Success In Parents With Intellectual Disabilities, Beth S. Juarez
Theses and Dissertations
Persons with intellectual disabilities (ID) who choose to become parents typically encounter significant ban·iers and challenges that too often have less to do with parental competency, and more to do with context1ml factors, stereotypes and perceptions, lack of access to support services, social policy and unjust treatment by child welfare systems. These inequities have historically contributed to an increased risk of harm for both parents and children, including preventable separation of families. With support, parents with ID can and do parent successfully and nurses can play an important role in promoting this success. This review of the current literature describes …

Using Insects To Teach Stats: Creating Flipped Classroom Materials That Support Student Learning Of The Statistical Analysis Skills Requisite Within The International Baccalaureate Higher Level Biology Course Syllabus, John C. Gasparini
Department of Entomology: Distance Master of Science Projects
I work as a science teacher at a school in Germany. While I have enjoyed taking all of my classes within the UNL Masters in Entomology Program, I am not, and will not be a practicing entomologist in my career. That is why I would like my thesis project to focus on using the lessons that I have learned in completing this distance education program to improve my teaching.
I feel as if I learned a great deal about insects in this program, but in addition I also learned quite a bit about what works and what does not work …

Applying Sex Offender Registry Laws To Juvenile Offenders: Biases Against Adolescents From Stigmatized Groups, Jessica M. Salerno, Margaret Stevenson, Cynthia J. Najdowski, Tisha R.A. Wiley, Bette L. Bottoms, Liana Peter-Hagene
Psychology Faculty Scholarship
The need to protect children from dangerous sex offenders has led to policies that require juvenile sex offenders to register on public online registries. It is important to determine the implications of these laws for the wellbeing of child victims and also for juvenile offenders on these registries. Is the application of these laws—designed for adult offenders—to juveniles appropriate, necessary, and supported by public sentiment? The chapter reviews current sex offender registration policies and psychological research addressing whether the assumptions underlying these laws are supported by research, public sentiment toward these laws, factors that might drive biases against stigmatized youth …
A Changing Force: The American Civil War, Women, And Victorian Culture, Megan E. Mcnish
A Changing Force: The American Civil War, Women, And Victorian Culture, Megan E. Mcnish
Student Publications
The American Civil War thrust Victorian society into a maelstrom. The war disrupted a culture that was based on polite behavior and repression of desires. The emphasis on fulfilling duties sent hundreds of thousands of men into the ranks of Union and Confederate armies. Without the patriarchs of their families, women took up previously unexplored roles for the majority of their sex. In both the North and the South, females were compelled to do physical labor in the fields, runs shops, and manage slaves, all jobs which previously would have been occupied almost exclusively by men. These shifts in society, …
Property And Democratic Deliberation: The Numerus Clausus Principle And Democratic Experimentalism In Property Law, Anna Di Robilant
Property And Democratic Deliberation: The Numerus Clausus Principle And Democratic Experimentalism In Property Law, Anna Di Robilant
Faculty Scholarship
First-year law students soon become familiar with the numerus clausus principle in property law. The principle holds that there is a limited menu of available standard property forms (the estates, the different types of common or joint ownership, the different types of servitudes) and that new forms are hardly ever introduced. Over the last fifty years, however, property law has changed dramatically. A wealth of new property forms has been added to the list. This dynamism in the list has remained largely unexplored and is the subject of this Article. This Article focuses on a selection of recently created property …
Stuttering Therapy Via Telepractice In Kenya: An Overview, Michaela D. Stevenson
Stuttering Therapy Via Telepractice In Kenya: An Overview, Michaela D. Stevenson
WWU Honors College Senior Projects
For this project, I decided to look into the possibility of using telepractice as a method for providing speech and language services to people in remote areas of Kenya. For information and experience regarding working in Kenya with Kenyan people, I partnered with Dr. Debra Akre, the founder of Tembo Trading Education Project (TTEP). TTEP is a non-profit organization based in Bellingham, WA that has founded self-sustaining schools and businesses in Kenya. TTEP also promotes critical-thinking based education and actively works to improve critical- thinking skills in the children they interact with.

Single But Not Alone: The Journey From Stigma To Collective Identity Through Himachal’S Single Women’S Movement, Kim Berry
HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies
Across the northwestern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh, never-married, divorced, separated, abandoned and widowed women have joined together across differences of caste, class, ethnicity and region to organize as members of Ekal Nari Shakti Sangathan (the Association of Empowered Single Women). Until recently the term single woman (ekal nari) was rarely, if ever, used locally to describe a particular woman’s circumstances of living outside the institution of marriage. Yet since the emergence of Ekal Nari Shakti Sangathan (ENSS) in Himachal Pradesh in 2005, over 9,000 women have become dues-paying members of the organization, re-identifying as single women, and struggling collectively …
Strategic Deployments Of ‘Sisterhood’ And Questions Of Solidarity At A Women’S Development Project In Janakpur, Nepal, Coralynn Davis
Strategic Deployments Of ‘Sisterhood’ And Questions Of Solidarity At A Women’S Development Project In Janakpur, Nepal, Coralynn Davis
HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies
Linguistic uses of ‘sisterhood’ provide a window into disparate understandings of relationality among virtual and actual interlocutors in women’s development across vectors of caste, class, ethnicity and nationality. In this essay, I examine the trope of ‘sisterhood’ as it was employed at a women’s development project in Janakpur, Nepal, in the 1990s. I demonstrate that the use of this common signifier of kinship with culturally disparate “signifieds” created a confusion of meaning, and differential readings of the politics of relationality. In my view, ‘sister,’ as used at this project, was a multivalent, strategically deployed, and divergently interpreted term. In particular, …
Gandhi's Other Daughter: Sarala Devi And Lakshmi Ashram, Rebecca M. Klenk
Gandhi's Other Daughter: Sarala Devi And Lakshmi Ashram, Rebecca M. Klenk
HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies
In 1946, Sarala Devi, formerly Catherine Mary Heileman of London, founded a Gandhian training center for women and girls in Kumaon, in what was then the Himalayan region of the United Provinces, India. She and her students challenged conventions regarding gender, sexuality, and appropriate roles for colonial women. This essay analyzes Sarala Devi’s translocal work and shifting subjectivity in the context of her transnational position as she negotiated colonial, modernist, feminist, Gandhian, and village discourses in her mission to “uplift” women. It identifies and analyzes the varied historical contexts, ideologies, and discourses that created the possibility for Sarala Devi’s life …
Stroke In Women: Burden, Challenges And Future For Pakistan, Maria Khan, Mohammad Wasay
Stroke In Women: Burden, Challenges And Future For Pakistan, Maria Khan, Mohammad Wasay
Pakistan Journal of Neurological Sciences (PJNS)
The burden of stroke is increasing around the world in both men and women. South Asia is home to 20% of the world’s population but harbors almost 80% of world strokes. Previously sex specific data on stroke incidence, prevalence, severity and mortality was not available. Now over recent years this aspect has received attention. A systematic review in 2009 concluded that although stroke in women is less common compared to men, it has a greater severity and case fatality. Although this kind of data is not available from Pakistan, some preliminary reports suggest that this might be the case in …

Personal Web Use In The Workplace: Why Does It Persist In A Context Of Strict Security And Monitoring?, Andrea M. Polzer-Debruyne, Micheal T. Stratton, Gary Stark
Journal Articles
Over the last decade, Personal Web Use (PWU) in the workplace has received considerable attention. This study examined factors that both inhibit and encourage PWU behaviors. The context was a municipal government agency in the U.S. with strong policy and electronic restrictions on PWU. Our study builds on extant research byinvestigating both self-reported PWU (from an online survey of 116 users atthe agency) and objective reports fromthe agency’s electronic monitoring (EM) of PWU. Results of our hypothesis tests indicated that group norms,individual moral norms, and perceived time availability had an effect on PWU while boredom had no effect. Group norms …
