Coach Effectiveness And Personality Assessments: An Exploratory Analysis Of Thin Slice Interpersonal Perceptions, Jennifer Lynne Knight

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

This research examined accuracy, consensus, and self-other agreement of personality assessments and coaching effectiveness based on thin-slice judgments of 30-second video clips of 9 recreation level coaches. Two hundred and six naive raters viewed the clips and rated the targets on coaching effectiveness and personality attributes. Ratings of coaching effectiveness were correlated with expert ratings of effectiveness to measure accuracy. The ratings of attributes were correlated with expert ratings of the same attributes to measure consensus. Gender, race, and level of sport participation of naive raters was subjected to independent sample t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine …

Nurse Practitioners In Burn Centers: An Exploration Of The Developing Role, Trisha Ann Myers

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to explore job satisfaction, barriers to practice, roles, and collaboration among nurse practitioners (NPs) choosing to practice in the environment of caring for burned patients. Exploration and identification of the role of NPs practicing among this unique population may benefit patients, and the burn community, when the expertise of the NP is added to a greater multi-disciplinary team. Two data collection instruments were utilized to measure the criterion variable job satisfaction: The Misener Nurse Practitioner Job Satisfaction Scale and a semi-structured telephone interview. Study participants consisted of 24 NPs employed in 16 burn centers …

Right Reverend Stephen Elliott: Political Influence And The Protestant Episcopal Church In Georgia, 1840-1866, Paulette S. Thompson

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

By the late 1840's, the South's religious and political convictions upheld slaveholders' social and economic views. These convictions permeated worship services in Georgia via the ministries. At the onset of the Civil War, spirituality provided an essential source of Southern strength in both victory and defeat. As fortitude subsided, religion also played a prodigious role in perpetuating the Confederate experience. For a generation, its theology had endorsed the South's social arrangement, asserted the morality of slavery, expunged Southern sins, and recruited the populace as God's devout guardians of the institution. Sustained by the belief that they were God's chosen people, …

Predicting Starting Status: Factors Contributing To The Success Of Collegiate Football Players, Martin John Spieler

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

The recruiting process in collegiate football calls for coaches to identify prospective student-athletes who would be most successful at their institution. Humara (2005) argues that while coaches are experts in the identification of physical attributes needed for success, they may lack the ability to identify psychological skills. Niednagel (2004) would contend that in addition to psychological and physical factors, environmental factors also contribute to the ability to succeed. Participants were 108 male football players (35 linemen, 47 tight ends/linebackers, 18 skilled players, 8 special teams) from 6 teams in a NCAA Division I Southeastern conference. Using multivariate analysis of variance …

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

This study examines the effects of resistance and aerobic exercise on Social Physique Anxiety (SPA) and Physical Self-Efficacy (PSE) over a 3-week time period. Participants (n=44, mean age=21.11 yesrs) were randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups: Aerobic, Resistance, Combination, or Control. Measures of SPA and PSE were taken as baseline and after the 3-week period. Two-way ANOVAs revealed a singificant difference in SPA, confidence, and ability over time across all groups.

Effects Of An Individual Goal-Setting Intervention On Goal Orientation, Self-Confidence, And Riving Accuracy In Average Golfers: A Quantitative Design, Michael Scott Shivetts

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a four-week individual goal-setting intervention program on driving accuracy performance, state self-confidence, and goal orientation in average golfers. The participants were obtained from two intermediate golf physical activity classes (n=43). The experimental group (n=20) was educated on all aspects of proper goal-setting while the control group (n=23) was asked to do their best. The Sport Orientation Questionnaire (SOQ; Gill & Deeter, 1988) was used to measure overall goal orientation. The State Sport Confidence Inventory (SSCI; Vealey, 1986) was used to measure each participant's sport confidence. Two-way ANOVAs with repeated …

Playground For The Imagination, B. Darlene Miller

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

Over the past years, my work has been based on a desire to depict the spiritual and physiological interdependence humans have with the wetland ecosystem. As I examine the shapes of trees and their roots through rubbings, paintings, and sculpture, I sought to express this interaction between humans and nature. My artwork metamorphosed from the traditionally separated forms of painting and sculpture into an environment. The transformation of natural materials into manufactured products led me to cultivate a deeper understanding of ecology, where humans are participants in the natural process of the life cycle. Nature becomes the primary subject and …
