Dance Therapy Action Plan: Improving Body Posture And Quality Of Life In Older Patients, Madelyn A. Prebola
Dance Therapy Action Plan: Improving Body Posture And Quality Of Life In Older Patients, Madelyn A. Prebola
Senior Honors Theses and Projects
Dance as a form of therapy for older patients (70+ years old) offers a unique solution to the discrepancy between the mind and body that we see in the aging process. Though loss of muscle mass in aging is not a necessary part of aging, it can lead to inactivity in aging adults. Inactivity due to limited range of motion in older patients can result in negative feelings of self-worth. This action plan for older patients is a multidisciplinary approach to dance therapy as a tool for improving body posture and, therefore, overall quality of life. By looking at the …

Uncovering Identities Through Performance Poetry, Angela Vanhook
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
Research in the area of performance poetry is still relatively new to the field of communication. Using Hecht’s Communication Theory of Identity, this study explores performance poetry as a communicative tool for identity management. By observing the performances of five poets from six seasons of HBO’s Def Poetry Jam, a thematic analysis of the communication practices that occurred during the performances was used to code the processes of identity management. Additionally, this study explores how validation of enacted identity occurs between the poets and their audiences. Findings suggest that performance poetry could effectively be utilized as a tool in identity …
The Visible #Family: Using The Hashtag To Study Family Construction, Joshua M. Parcha
The Visible #Family: Using The Hashtag To Study Family Construction, Joshua M. Parcha
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
The purpose of this study is to see, through a raw collection of data, how the family is currently being portrayed on social networking sites. Twitter is used to examine the social construction of family based upon observing tweets that contain #family. This paper argues that the family is best understood as being constructed through interactions with others, using symbolic interaction theory for theoretical grounding. Through examining over 1,000 tweets using a grounded theory methodological approach, three main themes emerged: family types, statements of family, and the esoteric family. The emergent themes suggest several implications, including that the family is …
