Dating Violence: College Students' Experiences And Intervention Suggestions, Ashley Mcneil Ezell, Karena T. Valkyrie, Casey Tobin
Dating Violence: College Students' Experiences And Intervention Suggestions, Ashley Mcneil Ezell, Karena T. Valkyrie, Casey Tobin
Modern Psychological Studies
The dating violence relationship experiences of students were investigated at a southeast regional university. A third of the 509 participants indicated they were victims of dating violence (n = 173), and almost 25% (n = 124) indicated they had victimized someone they had dated. Weapons included guns, knives, golf clubs, machetes, and tasers. Student participants offered three categories of interventions: Counseling, Improved Campus Security, and Educational Programs. Their experiences and suggestions are discussed.
Educating Clinical Pastoral Education Supervisors: A Grounded Theory Study Of Supervisory Wisdom, Judith R. Ragsdale
Educating Clinical Pastoral Education Supervisors: A Grounded Theory Study Of Supervisory Wisdom, Judith R. Ragsdale
Antioch University Full-Text Dissertations & Theses
Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) is an 80 year old education modality that provides professional education for students of pastoral care. Supervision is central to the CPE process. Pastoral supervisors in the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education (ACPE) have done little writing about their work educating Students in Supervisory Education (SSEs). The purpose of this dissertation is to identify and interview those practitioners in ACPE who have been identified by their peers as excellent in practice, and to cull their wisdom by listening to and categorizing their experience of supervising SSEs. The research question to the supervisors was: What is your …
Is Personality Related To The Music I Like? A Study Of Music Preferences And Sensation Seeking, Anna Coker Rhodes, Randy Carden
Is Personality Related To The Music I Like? A Study Of Music Preferences And Sensation Seeking, Anna Coker Rhodes, Randy Carden
Modern Psychological Studies
Past research supports the idea that music preferences are significantly predicted by sensation seeking. The current study explored whether disinhibition, thrill and adventure seeking, and openness to experience predict preference for music genre? The data were analyzed using a multivariate linear regression approach. Participants were 103 (27 men, 76 women) undergraduate students at a small, private university in the southeast. The participants listened to fourteen genres of music for twenty seconds each and Zuckerman's Sensation Seeking Scale was administered. The results supported previous research in that high sensation seekers preferred rock or heavy metal music and those lower on the …
Visual Versus Auditory Learning And Memory Recall Performance On Short-Term Versus Long-Term Tests, Katie Lindner, Greta Blosser, Kris Cunigan
Visual Versus Auditory Learning And Memory Recall Performance On Short-Term Versus Long-Term Tests, Katie Lindner, Greta Blosser, Kris Cunigan
Modern Psychological Studies
Our study explored the influence of visual versus auditory learning on recall of a memory test. There were four groups in our study, two of which heard an article, and two of which read an article. All groups were then given a posttest to assess their recall. Two of the four groups took an immediate posttest, and the other two took a delayed posttest 45 minutes after hearing or reading the article. Visual learning outperformed auditory learning in both the immediate post-test condition, as well as in the delayed post-test condition. Overall, our study found that visual learning produced better …

The Primary Prevention Of Sexual Violence Against Adolescents In Racine County And The Community Readiness Model, Theresa A. Dewalt
The Primary Prevention Of Sexual Violence Against Adolescents In Racine County And The Community Readiness Model, Theresa A. Dewalt
Dissertations (1934 -)
Sexual violence affects tens of thousands of people annually in the United States. The majority of sexual assault victims are under the age of 18. Victims of sexual violence often experience severe, long-lasting ramifications, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, interpersonal problems, suicidal ideation, self-harm behaviors, and eating disorders. As a result of these effects, it is imperative that communities provide effective primary prevention of sexual violence programs. However, it is challenging to effectively implement sexual violence primary prevention strategies for a variety of reasons. One challenge is because it is difficult to construct a prevention program that changes the …
Longitudinal Analysis Of Early Semantic Networks Preferential Attachment Or Preferential Acquisition?, Thomas Hills, Mounir Maouene, Josita Maouene, Adam Sheya, Linda Smith
Longitudinal Analysis Of Early Semantic Networks Preferential Attachment Or Preferential Acquisition?, Thomas Hills, Mounir Maouene, Josita Maouene, Adam Sheya, Linda Smith
Josita C Maouene
Analyses of adult semantic networks suggest a learning mechanism involving preferential attachment: A word is more likely to enter the lexicon the more connected the known words to which it is related. We introduce and test two alternative growth principles: preferential acquisition— words enter the lexicon not because they are related to well-connected words, but because they connect well to other words in the learning environment—and the lure of the associates—new words are favored in proportion to their connections with known words.We tested these alternative principles using longitudinal analyses of developing networks of 130 nouns children learn prior to the …
Auditory Verb Perception Recruits Motor Systems In The Developing Brain: An Fmri Investigation, Josita Maouene, Karin Harman James
Auditory Verb Perception Recruits Motor Systems In The Developing Brain: An Fmri Investigation, Josita Maouene, Karin Harman James
Josita C Maouene
This study investigated neural activation patterns during verb processing in children, using fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Preschool children (aged 4-6) passively listened to lists of verbs and adjectives while neural activation was measured. Findings indicated that verbs were processed differently than adjectives, as the verbs recruited motor systems in the frontal cortex during auditory perception, but the adjectives did not. Further evidence suggested that different types of verbs activated different regions in the motor cortex. The results demonstrate that the motor system is recruited during verb perception in the developing brain, reflecting the embodied nature of language learning and …
Categorical Structure Among Shared Features In Networks Of Early-Learned Nouns, Thomas Hills, Mounir Maouene, Josita Maouene, Adam Sheya, Linda Smith
Categorical Structure Among Shared Features In Networks Of Early-Learned Nouns, Thomas Hills, Mounir Maouene, Josita Maouene, Adam Sheya, Linda Smith
Josita C Maouene
The shared features that characterize the noun categories that young children learn first are a formative basis of the human category system. To investigate the potential categorical information contained in the features of early-learned nouns, we examine the graph-theoretic properties of noun–feature networks. The networks are built from the overlap of words normatively acquired by children prior to 2½ years of age and perceptual and conceptual (functional) features acquired from adult feature generation norms. The resulting networks have small-world structure, indicative of a high degree of feature overlap in local clusters. However, perceptual features – due to their abundance and …
