Patterned Fluidity Of Chinese Ethnic Identity: Networks, Time, And Place, Cynthia Baiqing Zhang Jun 2017

Patterned Fluidity Of Chinese Ethnic Identity: Networks, Time, And Place, Cynthia Baiqing Zhang

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

This study tests the salience/prominence of Chinese ethnic identity by applying identity theory, social identity theory, and social network analysis. Using survey data of Chinese graduate students in two universities in the United States, I show how Chinese ethnic identity salience varies with the percentage of Chinese in an individual’s ego network revolving around him or her. In addition, among newcomers to the United States, as the percentage Chinese in ego networks increases, the decline of Chinese identity salience/prominence declines, but for old timers in the United States, as the percentage Chinese increases, the decline of Chinese identity salience/prominence is …

Beyond Traditional Librarianship: Librarians’ Roles In An International Education And Exchange Program, Elizabeth Brown, Ping Fu, Ginny Blackson

Library Scholarship

This paper describes a case study of embedded librarianship at the James E. Brooks Library of Central Washington University (CWU). It discusses how librarians engaged teaching and learning through an international exchange and education program with a Chinese university and collaborated with the University English as Second Language (UESL) program at CWU in developing a UESL conditional admission proposal for graduate studies. Through reviewing the five stages of the engagement, milestones, and activities at each stage, using existing embedded librarianship concepts, and examining the embedded librarianship model developed by the librarians at CWU, this paper suggests that librarians develop methods …

Comparison Of Semi-Captive And Wild Gray-Shanked Douc Langurs’ (Pygathrix Cinerea) Substrate Use, Hilary Hemmes-Kavanaugh May 2017

Comparison Of Semi-Captive And Wild Gray-Shanked Douc Langurs’ (Pygathrix Cinerea) Substrate Use, Hilary Hemmes-Kavanaugh

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

In 2005 the Endangered Primate Rescue Center (Cúc Phương National Park, Vietnam) acquired 5ha of forest as a pre-release habitat for endangered primates. Our study assessed whether the pre-release habitat was suitable for the expression of grey-shanked douc (GSD) langurs’ (Pygathrix cinera) wild behavioral repertoire of substrate use. We categorized substrates as boughs, branches or twigs. We observed four langurs living in the pre-release habitat from 16-10-03 to 16-12-02 and compared results with wild GSD langurs. Both semi-captive and wild langurs used substrates at significantly varied proportions (semi-captive: χ2=68.36, df=2, P2=704.4, df=2, P2=7.78, df=2, p = .0204), …

However, one point of safety often emphasized is hydration during the practice of hot yoga. Aim: The aim of this study was to examine hydration encouragement by hot yoga instructors and hydration behaviors and related outcomes by hot yoga participants. Methods: A cross-sectional study (n = 700) collected self-report data on demographics, types and frequency of yoga practiced, hydration behaviors, and self-report measures of adverse outcomes experienced by participants during hot yoga. Associations between hydration encouragement, protective …
