Title: Effects of Naltrexone on Alcohol and Nicotine Use in Female P Rats
Author: Usman Z. Hamid, Department of Psychology, University of Kentucky
Faculty Mentor: Michael T. Bardo, Ph.D., Department of Psychology, University of Kentucky
Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance worldwide. It is often co-abused with nicotine, which increases the difficulty of cessation of both alcohol and nicotine. Despite having similar mechanisms of action, there is no single medication to treat the co-abuse. The objective of the current study is to analyze the effects of the opiate antagonist naltrexone on alcohol consumption and the co-use of alcohol and …
Examining Delayed Onset Of Dementia In The Bilingual Geriatric Population, Erica Brown, Elizabeth Hartman
Examining Delayed Onset Of Dementia In The Bilingual Geriatric Population, Erica Brown, Elizabeth Hartman
Grace Peterson Nursing Research Colloquium
Background: Dementia is the largest cause of dependency and disability in older adults, affecting nearly 50 million people worldwide with about 10 million new cases every year. Presently, there are no cures for dementia. Consequently, a growing body of evidence suggests that bilingualism may delay the onset of clinical dementia symptoms by several years.
Objectives: The purpose of this review is to summarize and analyze current evidence from studies that examined how bilingualism delays the onset of dementia. Evidence is reviewed suggesting that bilingualism may delay the dementia symptoms due to an increase in cognitive reserve, which refers to an …
Trying To Cover The Sun With Your Thumb: A Critical Ethnography Of Maternity Care Provision In Rural Northern New Mexico, Abigail Reese
Trying To Cover The Sun With Your Thumb: A Critical Ethnography Of Maternity Care Provision In Rural Northern New Mexico, Abigail Reese
Shared Knowledge Conference
Access to maternity care is disappearing for women across rural America. In New Mexico, women often travel long distances in order to access hospitals and providers that offer childbirth services, as these resources are primarily concentrated in metropolitan areas. Although data on provider distribution is available, very few studies have explored the maternity care access crisis from the perspectives of the midwives and physicians who work in rural areas. The purpose of this study was to explore barriers and facilitators to the provision of childbirth services from providers’ perspectives with the intent of informing policy debates around the maintenance of …
The Critical Need For Mental Health Education To Be Mandated In New Mexico's Public Schools, Bonnie L. Murphy
The Critical Need For Mental Health Education To Be Mandated In New Mexico's Public Schools, Bonnie L. Murphy
Shared Knowledge Conference
Based on a review of research and best practices in mental health awareness and skills, this inquiry project argues for state legislative policies that would require mental health awareness and skills in the K-12 curriculum. Mental health affects individual accomplishments in every stage of people’s lives beginning in early childhood and throughout the life cycle. Prevention and treatment of mental illness plays a key role in the ability of an individual to cope with loss and develop resiliency and perseverance in challenging times and to make better decisions that improve the individual’s life and the lives of those around them. …

Barriers To Change For Augmentative And Alternative Communication Use, Lauren E. Brown
Scholars Week
Title: BARRIERS TO CHANGE FOR AUGMENTATIVE AND ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATION USE
Keywords: speech language pathology, augmentative and alternative communication, counseling, readiness to change, self-efficacy
In recent literature, there has been a marked increase in importance placed upon understanding what factors both positively and negatively impact the progress made by a client and that client’s family in response to speech and language therapy. Today, clinicians prioritize evidence based practice (EBP) when making clinical decisions, focusing on not only clinical expertise and best evidence, but also client and caregiver perspectives, or preferences (ASHA, 2018). In consideration of EBP for augmentative and alternative communication …

Managing Across: A Magical Method For Providing Leadership And Skill Development, Heather Holmes
Southern Chapter/Medical Library Association Annual Conference
Objective: To provide an opportunity for faculty librarians to lead initiatives that will enhance the Research and Education Department’s knowledge and practice. Methods: Six faculty librarians at an academic health sciences library have been assigned an area of focus based upon their personal interests. The intent is for each of them to be able to work in an area that is of interest to them, but also for them to lead initiatives within the department to educate their peers. The areas are the ACRL Framework, LibGuides, Data and Assessment, Instructional Technology, NIH updates, and Teaching and Education. Each librarian is …
The Future Of Measuring Scholarly And Societal Impact In The Health Sciences: Exploring Dimensions In Non-Traditional Algorithms, Candace K. Vance, Tim Vance, Arthur Boston
The Future Of Measuring Scholarly And Societal Impact In The Health Sciences: Exploring Dimensions In Non-Traditional Algorithms, Candace K. Vance, Tim Vance, Arthur Boston
Southern Chapter/Medical Library Association Annual Conference
Objective: To provide an overview of evaluating scientific scholarly impact among researchers in the health sciences. Librarians, as department liaisons, are a natural choice for guiding faculty, students, and tenure and promotion committees in understanding and responsibly applying altmetrics and bibliometrics, including the Relative Citation Ratio (RCR), to evaluate the impact of contemporary health sciences scholars. Background: Scholars in the health sciences, particularly clinician-researchers, who divide their time among patient care, education, as well as academic service, have less time for research than other scientists. Thus, citation patterns vary across the disciplines, possibly placing clinicians at a disadvantage when traditional …
Keeping Up With Trends In Your Library: Simple And Speedy Ways To Assess Users’ Needs, Shalu Gillum, Natasha Williams, Terri Gotschall
Keeping Up With Trends In Your Library: Simple And Speedy Ways To Assess Users’ Needs, Shalu Gillum, Natasha Williams, Terri Gotschall
Southern Chapter/Medical Library Association Annual Conference
Objective: To find simple, fast, and easy ways to assess library users’ needs and to get real-time responses in order to shorten the interval between deploying surveys, gathering responses and implementation of solutions. In the past the library employed email surveys to assess user needs but the process was inefficient and ineffective due to low response rates and time spent creating online surveys. Methods: The library team began using paper “micro-assessments” to understand users’ needs. Short paper surveys of no more than five questions, were deployed at three different times throughout the academic year: (1) Medical students were handed surveys …

Changing The Conversation From Avoiding Predatory Journals To Finding And Evaluating The Right Journal, Terri Gotschall, Shalu Gillum
Changing The Conversation From Avoiding Predatory Journals To Finding And Evaluating The Right Journal, Terri Gotschall, Shalu Gillum
Southern Chapter/Medical Library Association Annual Conference
Objective: Predatory publishing is a trending topic in academia. Librarians all over are having conversations with faculty on how to steer clear of predatory publishers. But helping avoid predatory journals doesn’t meet the goal of having an article published. Now is the time to explore changing the conversation from predatory publishing to finding and evaluating the right journal. Methods: Last year librarians went to departmental meetings to present a cautionary tale of the predatory publisher. Outlandish emails from predatory journals were shared, along with what to look for when determining whether or not a journal publisher is legitimate. But just …

Can You Credit This? A Credit-Bearing Information Literacy Course For Graduate Health Science Students, Margaret Ansell, Mary E. Edwards, Hannah F. Norton, Nancy Schaefer, Michele R. Tennant
Southern Chapter/Medical Library Association Annual Conference
Objective: University of Florida HSCL librarians have long offered information-related instruction through guest lectures in the programs they serve and stand-alone workshops; however, librarians had not taught any credit-bearing courses focused on information literacy prior to 2016. To more fully integrate information-related skills into curricula, librarians developed a one-credit course for graduate students, initially targeting those in basic science programs but expecting that its modular format would allow easy adaptation for other health science programs. After two successful semesters teaching this course, librarians adapted the instructional content to an audience of graduate students in the College of Public Health and …

Redesigning A Hospital’S Evidence-Based Practice Course, Emily Brennan, Amanda Davis, Rebecca Harper
Southern Chapter/Medical Library Association Annual Conference
The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) Value Institute, which falls under the hospital’s Quality Department, has contributed to evidence-based practice (EBP) culture through education, evidence synthesis services, and the development of clinical decision support tools. Three members of the Value Institute -- a librarian, Clinical Evidence-Based Analyst, and Senior Value Specialist -- have taught a variety of EBP courses to clinicians over the years. However, because of increasing course dropout rates, the Value Institute conducted focus groups to identify ways to redesign the course. Two focus groups consisted of 6-8 previous course participants each. The focus groups started with …
