Social Media As A Personal Branding Tool: A Qualitative Study Of Student-Athletes’ Perceptions And Behaviors, Jin Park, Antonio Williams, Sungwook Son Mar 2020

Social Media As A Personal Branding Tool: A Qualitative Study Of Student-Athletes’ Perceptions And Behaviors, Jin Park, Antonio Williams, Sungwook Son

Journal of Athlete Development and Experience

While previous research focused on social media and student-athletes, there is a lack of knowledge about positive functions of social media use for student-athletes, especially personal branding purposes. Thus, this study aimed to explore how student-athletes perceive and use social media for personal branding purposes. A total of 11 student-athletes at a Division I university participated in semi-structured interviews. Considering the exploratory nature of the study, a qualitative inquiry and a phenomenology approach were employed to grasp an overall understanding of student-athletes’ personal branding via social media. The self-presentation theory was adopted to help understand student-athletes’ use of social media. …

The Playing Experiences Of Esport Participants: An Analysis Of Treatment Discrimination And Hostility In Esport Environments, Lindsey Darvin, Ryan Vooris, Tara Mahoney

Journal of Athlete Development and Experience

The eSport industry has seen rapid growth over the previous decade with additional opportunities for participants to compete in competitive and casual environments. As such, the sport industry has taken notice of this increase in popularity and exposure for eSport. A recent call to arms by sport management scholars suggests that the field of sport management needs to broaden research endeavors to include analyses of eSport and eSport spaces. To that end, this investigation serves as one of the first that investigates the playing experiences of eSport participants with a particular focus on the presence of discrimination and hostility in …

The Perfect Game: An Ecological Systems Approach To The Influences Of Elite Youth And High School Baseball Socialization, Max Klein, Charles Macaulay, Joseph Cooper

Journal of Athlete Development and Experience

The purpose of this study was to examine the elite youth and high school baseball socialization process as a whole and the role of professionalization and corporatization in this process. The unique nature of baseball’s development model in the United States (U.S.), through a dual-track feeder system (college or minor leagues) allows for a wide-range of challenges and sociological factors to influence elite youth and high school prospects. Understanding players’ experiences exposes these challenges and sociological factors. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with four former elite youth and high school baseball players, one parent of a player, two coaches, and two …

Journal of Sports Medicine and Allied Health Sciences: Official Journal of the Ohio Athletic Trainers Association

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of cupping therapy on skin surface temperature, and therefore local blood flow, at the medial forearm. Methods: 32 healthy subjects [13 females (age = 21.14 ± 1.70, height = 168.00 ± 9.70 cm, mass = 67.07 ± 16.93) and 16 males (age = 21.78 ± 1.90, height = 180.62 ± 6.09, mass = 88.35 ± 14.66) participated in this study.

Situational Judgment Tests: An Overview Of Development Practices And Psychometric Characteristics, Deborah L. Whetzel, Taylor S. Sullivan, Rodney A. Mccloy Mar 2020

Situational Judgment Tests: An Overview Of Development Practices And Psychometric Characteristics, Deborah L. Whetzel, Taylor S. Sullivan, Rodney A. Mccloy

Personnel Assessment and Decisions

Situational judgment tests (SJTs) are popular assessment methods often used for personnel selection and promotion. SJTs present problem scenarios to examinees, who then evaluate each response option for addressing the issue described in the scenario. As guidance for practitioners and researchers alike, this paper provides experience- and evidence-based best practices for developing SJTs: writing scenarios and response options, creating response instructions, and selecting a response format. This review describes scoring options, including key stretching and within-person standardization. The authors also describe research on psychometric issues that affect SJTs, including reliability, validity, group differences, presentation modes, faking, and coaching.

Nancy Drew: A Feminist Icon Or A Problematic Figure Of The Patriarchy And White Privilege, Elizabeth J. Farren Mar 2020

Nancy Drew: A Feminist Icon Or A Problematic Figure Of The Patriarchy And White Privilege, Elizabeth J. Farren

WRIT: Journal of First-Year Writing

In the detective fiction genre, Nancy Drew is one of its most iconic sleuths, and is so cleverly named the “girl detective.” Originally created in 1930, Nancy Drew serves as an inspirational figure for young girls and women across generations, as her intelligence and resourcefulness allowed her to challenge traditional gender roles for women as well as solve complicated mysteries. With the rise of the women’s rights movement and in the 1960s, many aspired to attain Nancy Drew’s independence and subvert the patriarchy, breaking the glass ceiling that held them down in the role of the submissive housewife. The second …

Statin Drugs Plus Th1 Cytokines Potentiate Apoptosis And Ras Delocalization In Human Breast Cancer Lines And Combine With Dendritic Cell-Based Immunotherapy To Suppress Tumor Growth In A Mouse Model Of Her-2 Disease, Crystal M. Oechsle, Loral E. Showalter, Colleen M. Novak, Brain J. Czerniecki, Gary K. Koski Feb 2020

Statin Drugs Plus Th1 Cytokines Potentiate Apoptosis And Ras Delocalization In Human Breast Cancer Lines And Combine With Dendritic Cell-Based Immunotherapy To Suppress Tumor Growth In A Mouse Model Of Her-2 Disease, Crystal M. Oechsle, Loral E. Showalter, Colleen M. Novak, Brain J. Czerniecki, Gary K. Koski

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

A dendritic cell-based, Type 1 Helper T cell (Th1)-polarizing anti-Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-2 (HER-2) vaccine supplied in the neoadjuvant setting eliminates disease in up to 30% of recipients with HER-2-positive (HER-2) ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). We hypothesized that drugs with low toxicity profiles that target signaling pathways critical for oncogenesis may work in conjunction with vaccine-induced immune effector mechanisms to improve efficacy while minimizing side effects. In this study, a panel of four phenotypically diverse human breast cancer lines were exposed in vitro to the combination of Th1 cytokines Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) and lipophilic …

Video Marketing Strategies For Generation Z, Tay R. Sauer, Carol S. Hall Feb 2020

Video Marketing Strategies For Generation Z, Tay R. Sauer, Carol S. Hall

Honors Projects

If Generation Z is the first generation of digital natives, what is the best strategy for marketing college recruitment to them? Video marketing has been proven to be the most profitable form of marketing, especially short videos that can easily be spread on social media. Generation Z connects with a university most when they are able to see themselves reflected back in a diverse student body. Generation Z doesn't like "fluff" in their university recruitment marketing; this money-minded generation wants to see that they will quickly be able to get a job, internship, or campus opportunities to advance their career. …

Making Sound Decisions: Institutional Responses To The Crisis In Audio Preservation, David R. Lewis Jan 2020

Making Sound Decisions: Institutional Responses To The Crisis In Audio Preservation, David R. Lewis

University Libraries Faculty Publications

Some archives have been quick to respond to the crisis in audio preservation brought on by the combined forces of obsolescence and degradation inherent in legacy audio formats and their playback equipment. These archives have undertaken digitization projects for particular collections or, in a few cases, have digitized the bulk of their audio holdings for preservation. Based on an examination of the literature on audio preservation, however, the responses of some institutions—particularly small and midsized institutions—have been stymied by roadblocks related to cost and expertise. Given the limited time available for archives to migrate audio content, this uneven response threatens …

Succeeding At Your Internship: A Handbook Written For And With Students, Christopher J. Mruk, John C. Moor Jan 2020

Succeeding At Your Internship: A Handbook Written For And With Students, Christopher J. Mruk, John C. Moor

Open Educational Resources

There are several textbooks for students whose majors include internships in human services, broadly defi­­­ned, such as case management, counseling, criminal justice, and social work. Most of these books are written in an academic format. Typically, it involves an introduction to a theoretical orientation that concerns working with others followed by a series of chapters devoted to learning professional skills associated with a given discipline. This approach is fine, as far as it goes, but also has two drawbacks. One is that the texts are usually sold by main stream publishers, which means they are expensive. Another is that they …


Improving School Counselor Efficacy Through Principal-Counselor Collaboration: A Comprehensive Literature Review, Kat R. Mcconnell, Rachel Louise Geesa, Renae D. Mayes, Nicholas P. Elam Jan 2020

Improving School Counselor Efficacy Through Principal-Counselor Collaboration: A Comprehensive Literature Review, Kat R. Mcconnell, Rachel Louise Geesa, Renae D. Mayes, Nicholas P. Elam

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The school counselor and principal have vital roles within a school which have a significant impact upon the way a school functions. One area of pressing conflict within principal-counselor relationships is disagreement over the appropriate role and function of the counselor. In order to investigate perceptions of the counselor role, as well as the elements of healthy relationships between principals and counselors, the authors conducted an extensive literature review. The following themes were found within the literature and are discussed: 1) school counselor roles and responsibilities, 2) principal and school counselor collaboration, and 3) characteristics of effective school counselor/principal relationships.

Stronger Surveys: Assessing Campus Recreation Student Employee Transferable Job Skills, Adrienne Ansel

Master of Education in Applied Human Development Graduate Projects

Employers depend on higher education institutions to develop competent professionals. Current literature suggests that higher education professionals are concerned about the various ways their students develop proficiency of job skills needed for the workforce. Campus recreation student employment provides ample opportunities to develop such skills. Peck and colleagues released a whitepaper regarding the positive impact campus recreation student employment has on developing the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) top-ten preferred transferable job skills by employers. Although Peck and colleagues’ work serves as the primary resource for campus recreation transferable job skill information, there is no current comprehensive assessment …

Changing The Story: Evaluation Results Of An Opioid Awareness Teach-In, Kerri Lynn Knippen, Kristina N. Lavenia, Melissa W. Burek

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Teach-Ins have historically been used as a way for educators to raise knowledge and awareness around an urgent social problem. We report findings from an action evaluation of the Bowling Green State University (BGSU) Opioid Awareness Teach-In, which was designed to (a) make clear that the BGSU community believes we can work to change the story of the opioid epidemic in northwest Ohio and (b) raise awareness of resources available for those struggling with opioid dependence in our community. Campus wide, anonymous questionnaires administered to students, faculty, and staff before (n = 275) and after (n = 140) the Teach-In …
