Comparison Of Plga And Pcl Ratios In Kartogenin-Containing Nano-Scaffolds Produced Via The Electrospinning Process, John Graham Roberson
Honors Theses
Microfracture surgery is the most common procedure to treat osteochondral lesions in the knee. However, instead of developing the original hyaline cartilage at the site of treatment, this procedure leads to the development of fibrocartilage, which lacks the durability and function of hyaline cartilage. A small molecule compound, Kartogenin (KGN), is known to promote the differentiation of STEM cells into chondrocytes and can be incorporated into a polymer nanoscaffold via the electrospinning technique. The scaffold could serve as a release mechanism for the KGN as the polymer degrades in the body. This study implemented the use of two different polymers, …

The methods used in the current study may serve as an example of social network articulation for populations without a formal network to assist with outreach to communities potentially underserved by …
“It Takes A Village”: Approaching The Development Of School-Family-Community Partnerships Through Bronfenbrenner’S Socio-Ecological Perspectives, Keonna Stanley, Nai-Cheng Kuo
“It Takes A Village”: Approaching The Development Of School-Family-Community Partnerships Through Bronfenbrenner’S Socio-Ecological Perspectives, Keonna Stanley, Nai-Cheng Kuo
Journal of Human Sciences and Extension
Improving student learning and development requires a constant exploration of practical collaboration methods with families and educational service providers. Using Bronfenbrenner’s socio-ecological systems theory can help stakeholders understand how internal and external factors affect a student’s overall performance and raise families’ and educational service providers’ awareness of their roles. The application of this theory encourages stakeholders to extend the existing dual capacity framework between families and schools to the quadruple partnership that further involves communities and universities. When families and educators become more aware of the complexities of the factors and make intentional efforts, they are more likely to create …

Assessing Hygiene Factor Needs For A Statewide Extension Strategic Planning Process, Amy Harder, Mikey W. Hughes
Journal of Human Sciences and Extension
UF/IFAS Extension launched a long-term strategic planning process in 2019 to create positive change within the organization and within Florida. Conducting an internal needs assessment was prioritized as an important component of the planning process to address concerns that the previous strategic plan did not sufficiently focus on the organization’s needs, especially faculty needs. So, this study was conducted in 2020 to determine UF/IFAS Extension faculty’s perceptions of selected hygiene factors associated with workplace motivation. An online survey consisting of 13 sections was distributed through Qualtrics to 612 UF/IFAS Extension faculty. Faculty tended to be slightly satisfied with the UF/IFAS …

Journal of Human Sciences and Extension
The Cooperative Extension System translates research to practice and “brings the University to the people” throughout the U.S. However, the system suffers from program duplication and is challenged to scale-out effective programs. One program, Dining with Diabetes (DWD), stands out for its dissemination to multiple states. DWD is a community-based program aimed at improving diabetes management, nutrition, and physical activity behaviors. DWD was coordinated through a national working group and implemented by state Extension systems. A pragmatic, quasi-experimental study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the national coordination model and the overall impact of DWD. Four states reported data …

Parenting Education For Low-Income Job Seekers: A Mixed-Methods Analysis Of The Parenting With Love And Logic Program, Bryan Spuhler, Jacob A. Esplin, Kay Bradford, Brian J. Higginbotham
Journal of Human Sciences and Extension
Although the principles and strategies outlined in Cline and Fay’s (1990) Parenting with Love and Logic have been the foundation for several parent and educator training curricula over the last 30 years, there has been a dearth of empirical research to evaluate these programs (Fay, 2012). Prior research has documented the impact of cumulative family risk factors on parenting skills and child outcomes (Repetti et al., 2002, 2012), but few studies have examined the impact of parenting education courses within unemployed, low-income families. This study investigates perceived parental efficacy across the four program domains of connection, autonomy, regulation, and parental …

Evaluating A Relationship Education Program With Incarcerated Adults, Terra L. Jackson, Francesca Adler-Baeder, Leah Burke, Silvia Vilches
Journal of Human Sciences and Extension
Research indicates healthy family relationships can reduce recidivism. More effort has been placed towards providing family life programming in prisons to promote healthy individual and relational functioning, yet only a handful of studies have evaluated and provided insight on relationship education (RE) for incarcerated adults. This study contributes to this emerging effort and examines changes following participation in a RE program, using a sample of 461 incarcerated men and women. Findings indicate significant improvements in anxiety and depressive symptoms and conflict resolution skills. Additional tests of moderation of change by gender, relationship status, and child age revealed a greater change …

Evaluating Fidelity To The National Extension Dining With Diabetes Program: Challenges And Opportunities, Laura E. Balis, Bailey Houghtaling, Julie Harker Buck
Journal of Human Sciences and Extension
The objective of this study was to evaluate fidelity to the Dining with Diabetes (DWD) program. Data were gathered cross-sectionally in 2019 using class profile forms (i.e., checklists) containing items reflecting the core components of DWD: delivery personnel, curriculum, hands-on cooking, and goal setting. Fidelity was calculated as the proportion of core components completed as intended. Educators (N = 9) completed class profile forms for 10 complete DWD programs (i.e., all four classes). Fidelity to components of completed DWD programs and individual DWD classes was high (over 70% in each category). Overall, fidelity was high, and adaptations reported likely did …
