Developing A Multi-Dimensional Measure Of Growth Mindset For School Improvement, Thomas Hartka
Masters Theses, 2010-2019
The goal of the present study was to create a multi-dimensional growth mindset (MGM) measure. The purpose of the measure was to serve as an indicator of improvement for a team of 6th grade Math teachers in a local Middle School. These teachers noted that while their students were showing stronger self-reported growth mindset beliefs following interventions, they were not consistently displaying improvement in growth mindset behaviors.

A Growth Mindset Intervention In Female Collegiate Athletes, Cierra Latrice Williams
Masters Theses, 2010-2019
Growth mindset interventions have been evaluated within academic settings for years and have demonstrated links between one’s mindset and achievement goals.

Participants viewed two videos about the malleability of the brain, listened to the researcher discuss personal sport experiences, and wrote a letter to a future athlete. Measures of growth mindset, fixed mindset, competitiveness, win orientation, and goal orientation were …

The study implemented a convergent mixed methods design, using the Rehabilitation Adherence Measure for Athletic Training as a quantitative measure of adherence and a semi-structured interview to establish the strategies athletic trainers use to organize the rehabilitation process, provide feedback to athletes, and evaluate rehabilitation progress. The semi-structured interview also allowed for other emerging themes during analysis. Results indicated that high-adhering athletes …
The Impact Of Fertility Cues On Intrasexual Competition And Threat Perception, Grant Ostrander
The Impact Of Fertility Cues On Intrasexual Competition And Threat Perception, Grant Ostrander
Masters Theses, 2010-2019
Humans are capable of detecting subtle fertility indicators that change across women’s menstrual cycle. One such indicator is the voice, which may change over the course of the menstrual cycle and provide fertility cues to listeners. Such cues provide an obvious advantage to men selecting mates, however research suggests that women can also detect these cues. Women may monitor the fertility of others to more effectively adjust their own mating strategies. By monitoring women’s skin conductance, cortisol, and testosterone responses to hearing high- and low-fertility female voices, the current study further investigated whether vocal cues of fertility may physiologically prime …
