Data Analysis Using Regression Modeling: Visual Display And Setup Of Simple And Complex Statistical Models, Emil N. Coman, Maria A. Coman, Eugen Iordache, Russell Barbour, Lisa Dierker
Yale Day of Data
We present visual modeling solutions for testing simple and more advanced statistical hypotheses in any research field. All models can be directly specified in analytical software like Mplus or R.
Data analysis in any substantive field can be easily accomplished by translating statistical tests in the intuitive language of regression-based path diagrams with observed and unobserved variables. All models we presented can be directly specified and estimated in analytical software.
Students can particularly benefit from being taught the simple regression modeling setup of the path analytical method, as it empowers them to apply the techniques to any data to test …
The Effects Of Hiv/Aids On The Mother-Child Relationship, Margaret Gross
The Effects Of Hiv/Aids On The Mother-Child Relationship, Margaret Gross
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
39 semi-structured interviews were conducted with HIV+/- mothers living in central Uganda. Interviews were assisted by a translator and recorded manually on paper then coded and analyzed. The majority of HIV+ mothers were found to be single, supported 5+ children, worked longer days to get by, and emphasized the importance of having a counselor. These findings suggest a strong relationship exists between HIV and motherhood. There is a need for further attention to help single mothers and foster programs that encourage economic growth within their families, nutritional improvement, and overall attention to a group that is currently receiving little assistance.

Condom Use As It Relates To Perception And Self-Efficacy, Taryn Larribas
Condom Use As It Relates To Perception And Self-Efficacy, Taryn Larribas
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
There is little research that has examined barriers on the part of an individual’s condom use self-efficacy. Furthermore, there is a lack of investigation into whether an individual’s perceptions of their partner’s attitudes have an impact on condom use and whether factors such as an individual’s level of condom use self-efficacy influences a person’s condom acquisition techniques. It is hypothesized that condom use will be positively correlated with higher levels of condom use self-efficacy (CUSE) and positive perceptions of others’ attitudes.
Participants were 104 undergraduates at USF. Hypotheses were tested using the responses to the 28- item Condom Use Self-Efficacy …

Termination Of Long-Term Mental Health Treatment With Foster Youth, Kimberlin Borca, Keala Pacheco
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
Our previous work has demonstrated the effectiveness of long-term relationship-basedpsychotherapy for children in foster care. The current study examines circumstances inthe last year and at termination of treatment. Patients were seen on a weekly (65.5%) orbiweekly (18.2%) basis. Reasons for termination included patient relocation (14.5%),unexpected patient dropout (12.7%), treatment plateau/goals reached (10.9%), patientresistance to treatment (10.9%), lack of support from family or social services (9.1%),caretaker termination of treatment (7.3%), and transportation issues/scheduling problems(3.6%). Limitations of the study include a small sample size, potential bias from therapistinformants, and lack of a comparison group.

How Base Rate Statistics And Counterfactuals Influence Causal Models And Recommendations For Traffic Safety, Jennifer Milazzo, Edward Munnich, Jade Stannard, Katheryn Conde
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
How does considering alternative possibilities affect models of what causes changes in statistics? We manipulated two independent variables—prior estimation (whether participants estimated the most recent statistic prior to receiving the correct statistic), and counterfactual thinking (whether participants provided explanations for changes in the statistic in the opposite direction). We measured the following effects: 1) surprise about the correct statistic, 2) changes in participants’ causal models, 3) actions participants recommended to improve the statistic in coming years, and 4) estimates of how much the statistic could improve if proposed actions were implemented.

The Effect Of Military Deployment On The Parents Of Those Deployed, Ashley Hinkamper, Cody Carson, Erica N. Johnson
The Effect Of Military Deployment On The Parents Of Those Deployed, Ashley Hinkamper, Cody Carson, Erica N. Johnson
Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Research Exchange Conference
This study proposes to examine the psychological effects of military deployment on the parents of those deployed. Questionnaires will be administered to parents of active-duty and recently discharged marines via the internet. Whether deployment is to an area where there is substantial risk of injury or death or to an area without such risk will be assessed. Parents’ personal distress, efforts to cope with stress, and attitudes towards mental illness and its treatment will be evaluated. We hypothesize that parents of those deployed in danger zones will report greater distress, and that distress will be influenced by media exposure and …

The Effects of Smoking and Memory in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: A Proposal
By Kathryn E. Kalvoda and Andrew D. Ronquillo
Many individuals suffer with high stress and life-changing memories. These memories are hard to erase and many are forced to deal with them for the rest of their lives. These experiences can cause an increase in vulnerability to a diagnosis of posttraumatic stress disorder, a disorder in which recurrent thoughts of traumatic events detrimentally influence an individual’s quality of life. One particular source of stress reduction is to engage in smoking cigarettes. Smoking in general leads to many health problems. …
Latino Family Variables And Sexual Activity In Latino Adolescents, Brittany Nicole Barber
Latino Family Variables And Sexual Activity In Latino Adolescents, Brittany Nicole Barber
Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Research Exchange Conference
Researchers’ focused examination of Latino adolescents’ cultural values and sexual activity has yielded questions regarding the cultural- and gender-specific attitudes and practices of these youth (Deardorff, Tschann, & Flores, 2008). Cultural values include family-related variables such as different aspects of familism, parent-adolescent communication, and parental monitoring, which have been found to decrease adolescents’ engagement in other negative activities such as aggressive behavior, (Dishion & McMahon, 1998), substance use (Estrada, Rabow, & Watts, 1982), and delinquency (Clark & Shields, 1997). Research investigating these risk behaviors has often implicated Latino adolescents’ level of assimilation to White, mainstream society as a potential risk …
Cultural Influences On Sexual Activity Among Latina Adolescents, Keyona M. Jarrett
Cultural Influences On Sexual Activity Among Latina Adolescents, Keyona M. Jarrett
Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Research Exchange Conference
Early sexual activity among Latina adolescents has serious consequences (Chesson, Blandford, Gift, Tao, & Irwin, 2004; Mokdad, Marks, Stroup, & Gerberding, 2004; Schuster, 2003). Researchers have examined the influence of cultural variables such as assimilation, enculturation, gender roles, and ethnic identity on the sexual attitudes and behaviors of Latina adolescents (Benson & Torpy, 1995; Gómez & Marín, 1996; Jacobs, 2008; Kirby, 2002). Although there are some inconsistencies, the majority of the research in this area suggests that assimilation functions as a risk factor for engaging in sexual activity. Enculturation, gender roles (e.g., marianismo), and ethnic identity function as protective factors …

Influence Of Culture On Young Latinas Resilience: A Qualitative Study, Alison M. Lafollette
Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Research Exchange Conference
There are currently 14.4 million Latinas in the U.S., many of which find ways to be resilient in spite of discrimination, prejudice, and anti-immigrant sentiment. Thirty Mexican American middle and high school girls (mean age = 13.4, 21.4% immigrant) were asked to discuss stress, coping and the influence of culture, gender, family, and school on well-being and goals for the future. Interviews from six focus groups (four to seven members each) were analyzed from grounded theory. Findings indicate that participants had negative experiences related to being Latina yet maintained a positive view of being Latina. The participants used both their …

Emerging Adults Perceptions Of Their Education And Life Experience, Alison M. Lafollette, Amber Ottaway, Noor Rosli, Christine Schulz, Linn Visscher, Rebecca Bardwell
Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Research Exchange Conference
What is meant by a successful education or a well performing school? Most studies assessing the effectiveness of k-12 education look at variables such as graduation rates, standardized test scores and college matriculation. Few studies could be found that looked at post education life outcomes. Yet it is often stated that a public education system is to provide for a well informed electorate or an effective work force. We know that a strong academic foundation leads to better life outcomes, but precisely what is it in that education that contributes to a successful life? Emerging adults between the ages of …
