Influential Factors In Undergraduate Nursing Research Analysis, Anunay Bhattacharya, Marian Tabi Nov 2015

Influential Factors In Undergraduate Nursing Research Analysis, Anunay Bhattacharya, Marian Tabi

Anunay Bhattacharya

Undergraduate college students often tend to view research courses with negative attitudes. These negative attitudes have well documented in numerous studies. Prior research studies have documented that negative attitudes toward a course have been found to serve as barriers to learning.  In addition, these negative attitudes influence the amount of effort one is willing to invest in learning a subject.  Studies have shown that research experience in undergraduate education is associated with graduate education and future career in research. Nursing students in many undergraduate baccalaureate degree programs are often required to take a course in research to understand and utilize evidence-based …

Assessing Student Perceptions Of Indigenous Science Co-Educators, Interest In Stem, And Identity As A Scientist: A Pilot Study, Sarah Alkholy, Fidji Gendron, Tanya Dahms, Maria Pontes Ferreira Nov 2015

Assessing Student Perceptions Of Indigenous Science Co-Educators, Interest In Stem, And Identity As A Scientist: A Pilot Study, Sarah Alkholy, Fidji Gendron, Tanya Dahms, Maria Pontes Ferreira

Nutrition and Food Science Faculty Research Publications

Minorities are underrepresented in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce, post-secondary STEM education, and show high academic attrition rates. Academic performance and retention improve when culturally relevant support is provided. The interface of Western science and Indigenous science provides an opportunity for bridging this divide. We hypothesized that there would be regional (U.S.A. vs. Canada) differences amongst post-secondary students regarding these variables: perceptions of traditional Elders as STEM co-educators; interest in STEM; and self-identity as a scientist. We conducted a short-term longitudinal pilot study of an interdisciplinary, multi-institutional, and cross-cultural STEM course in the spring of 2013. This …

School-Based Concussion Management: Implementation Characteristics Of Student Services Personnel, Jeffrey Garofano Nov 2015

School-Based Concussion Management: Implementation Characteristics Of Student Services Personnel, Jeffrey Garofano

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Concussion is an injury that disproportionately affects children and adolescents and has the potential to negatively impact school performance. Currently, a significant proportion of youth with concussion go unreported due to a lack of effective concussion surveillance procedures. Additionally, many individuals who have daily contact with youth (e.g., parents, teachers) lack training in how to assess or manage a concussion. Schools may be the ideal setting to address both of these problems as they have a high level of access to students and employ personnel (e.g., school psychologists, nurses, social workers, counselors) with experience in assessment and intervention. What is …
