A Case Study Of The Adoption And Implementation Of Positive Behavioral Interventions And Supports (Pbis) Tier 2 In Two Elementary Schools, Kathleen Emma Affigne
A Case Study Of The Adoption And Implementation Of Positive Behavioral Interventions And Supports (Pbis) Tier 2 In Two Elementary Schools, Kathleen Emma Affigne
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
This study was designed to explore four primary research questions. Why do schools and districts adopt PBIS? Which stakeholders were included in the decision-making process to adopt PBIS? Do these adoption dynamics influence PBIS Tier 2 implementation? With PBIS Tier 2 implementation fidelity as a desirable outcome, what are the relevant facilitators, constraints, and obstacles?
Impact Of An Extended-Day Kindergarten Intervention On School-Related Variables : A Longitudinal Study, Catherine Bauer
Impact Of An Extended-Day Kindergarten Intervention On School-Related Variables : A Longitudinal Study, Catherine Bauer
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
Increased awareness regarding the effectiveness of educational programs has been generated from recent legislative mandates. Given the significance of kindergarten as the foundation for academic learning, it is critical to evaluate whether district-created programs for entering students who are identified as at-risk are effectively meeting their needs. The current program evaluation study investigated the immediate and long-term effects of an extended-day intervention for kindergarten students identified as at-risk in one school district. Through archival data analysis, students who participated in the extended-day kindergarten (EDK; n=26) intervention beginning in the fall of 2000 and 2001 were compared with a control group …
The Relationship Between Role Salience And Work-Family Conflict Among Parents In Dual-Earner Families, Shaina I. Bernardi
The Relationship Between Role Salience And Work-Family Conflict Among Parents In Dual-Earner Families, Shaina I. Bernardi
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
Over the past few decades the number of dual-earner families in the U.S. has drastically increased (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2009). Given these changes within society, families and employers are faced with many new challenges regarding the balance of family and work (Schultheiss, 2006). Individuals that experience a continuous degree of work-family conflict are more likely to experience mental health and physical health decline, and greater degrees of family and job satisfaction (Frone, 2000; Mesmer-Magnus & Viswesvaran, 2005). Greenhaus and Beutell (1985) proposed that individuals with multiple salient life roles will experience a great degree of work-family conflict. Several …
Target Uncertainty Does Not Lead To Greater Singleton Distractor Interference When Target Shapes Are Not Interchangeable With Nontarget Shapes, Jacquelyn Berry
Target Uncertainty Does Not Lead To Greater Singleton Distractor Interference When Target Shapes Are Not Interchangeable With Nontarget Shapes, Jacquelyn Berry
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
Visual search research investigates whether attentional capture is driven by topdown processes, that is, experimental goals and directives, or by bottom-up processes, that is, the properties of the items within a search display. Some research has demonstrated that participants cannot avoid attending to a task-irrelevant salient item,such as a singleton distractor, even when the identity of the target item is known.Research has also shown that repeating the target feature across successive search displays will prime the visual pop out effect for a unique target (Priming of Pop Out). However, other research has shown that participants can strategically guide their attention …
The Acquired Preparedness Model And Impulsivity Moderated Expectancies : Examining Predictors Of Marijuana Use, Jamie Rae Bolles
The Acquired Preparedness Model And Impulsivity Moderated Expectancies : Examining Predictors Of Marijuana Use, Jamie Rae Bolles
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
The Acquired Preparedness Model suggests that links between personality and substance use are mediated by expectancies. Expectancy-moderated links between personality and substance use also have support in previous research. The current study sought to extend the Acquired Preparedness Model to a diverse sample of frequent marijuana users. Tension-reduction expectancies, impulsivity, and ounces of marijuana used per month were assessed in 5,996 participants recruited from a marijuana policy listserv. Tension-reduction expectancies partially mediated the relation between impulsivity and marijuana use. Additionally, expectancies and impulsivity interacted to predict marijuana use, with impulsivity showing a stronger link to use when expectancies increased. These …
Conditioned Arousal To Slot Machine Wins : An Examination Of Renewal Following Extinction, James Broussard
Conditioned Arousal To Slot Machine Wins : An Examination Of Renewal Following Extinction, James Broussard
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
The objective of this study was to explore whether an appetitive response extinguished in one context would remain extinguished when tested in the extinction context, but show renewal when tested in a different context. Forty college students played a slot machine while their physiological arousal (skin conductance and heart rate) and desire to play were being recorded. During the acquisition phase, wins on the slot machine were associated with a tone serving as a conditioned stimulus (CS) that preceded the machine's payout (US) and elicited conditioned arousal. During the following extinction phase, the CS was presented repeatedly without the US …
Workplace Gossip As A Way Of Coping With Occupational Stress, Urszula Kakar Maria
Workplace Gossip As A Way Of Coping With Occupational Stress, Urszula Kakar Maria
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship between workplace gossip and occupation stress. Gossip has been recognized as a ubiquitous and influential, yet seriously under researched phenomenon in the workplace. It has been acknowledged that research on workplace gossip is of great value because it constitutes a big part of organizational communication, it serves important functions, and it has serious consequences for members and organization itself. The small number of studies may be in part explained by the lack of agreement among researchers on the definition of gossip.
