Mothers' Perceptions Of Stigma: Implications For Early Identification And Treatment For Children With A History Of Prenatal Opioid Exposure, Pamela Jane Holland
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
There is a lack of research that specifies the long-term effects on a child’s language development when prenatally exposed to opioids (Fill et al.,2018; Rutherford et al., 2022). Despite this, children prenatally exposed to opioids are more likely to be referred for, qualify for, and receive therapy services secondary to developmental delays and speech/language deficits. (Kaltenbach et al., 2018). Stigma continues to be a barrier to the initiation of early intervention services for children prenatally exposed to opioids (Levickis et al., 2020; Livingston et al., 2011; Peacock-Chambers et al., 2020). This phenomenological study aims to understand the perceptions of the …

The purpose of this qualitative study was to collect data from the public …

Promoting Civil Discourse In The Honors Forum Through Argument Mapping And Systematic Empathy, Sean Michael Cassidy
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
This study investigated the impact that co-curricular programming delivered by the University Honors Program (UHP) at North Carolina State University through the Honors Forum course had on first-year students’ self-reported knowledge of civil discourse, their assessment of its importance and impact, and their evaluation of their commitment to the skills and values related to it. The Honors Forum is designed to help students develop a broad worldview by exposing them to lectures by scholars and public figures, panel discussions about contemporary societal debates, peer-facilitated discussions about books, films, and current events, and conversations with faculty and UHP graduates. This project …

Agriculture And Natural Resources Microcredentials To Support Workforce Development In Southwestern West Virginia, Hannah Blake
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
The areas surrounding Marshall University (MU) in Huntington, West Virginia (WV) are underemployed and economically distressed. MU has an opportunity to support workforce development in the region, aligning with leading geographical regions in agriculture and natural resources (ANR) by offering microcredentials designed to meet the relevant needs of the current workforce. The long-term goal of this study is to inform higher education decisions that can improve ANR career workforce development, increase future growth and opportunities in ANR, and ultimately improve the quality of life in southwestern WV.
