Due Process For U.S. Permanent Residents: The Rights To Counsel, Sandra E. Bahamonde

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

In 1945, the U.S. Supreme Court held that deportation is a serious penalty that may result in the loss of "all that makes life worth living."' This statement is as true today as it was nearly seventy years ago.

Evaluating Acropora Cervicornis Growth And Survivorship In A Line Nursery, Zachary Ostroff Jan 2013

Evaluating Acropora Cervicornis Growth And Survivorship In A Line Nursery, Zachary Ostroff

HCNSO Student Theses and Dissertations

Acropora cervicornis and A. palmata were once dominant, reef-building corals of Caribbean reefs. Over the last several decades, population declines of Caribbean Acropora have been dramatic, and both species are now listed as “Threatened” under the United States Endangered Species Act. Numerous restoration efforts now utilize coral gardening techniques to cultivate these species for transplantation, in which A. cervicornis is primarily cultivated both on fixed structures and in line nurseries. This study evaluates growth and survivorship of multiple A. cervicornis genotypes grown via two line nursery techniques, and compares the efficacy of each against the conventional method of fixed nursery …

Usefulness Of The Mms And S5 For Assessing Medication Management Capacity For Clients Post-Stroke, Jessica Jean Bolduc Jan 2013

Usefulness Of The Mms And S5 For Assessing Medication Management Capacity For Clients Post-Stroke, Jessica Jean Bolduc

Occupational Therapy Program Student Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Occupational therapists need a means to efficiently and accurately screen a client’s medication management capacity, especially for clients post-stroke. Most therapists are not aware of, nor do they utilize specific assessments for medication management capacity, partly due to lack of thorough assessments. The purpose of this study was to compare the scores of the ManageMed Screen (MMS), the Screening for Self-Medication Safety Post Stroke (S5), and the Montreal Assessment of Cognition (MoCA) on a population of rehabilitation clients post-stroke to evaluate consistency of scores and determine their usefulness in clinical practice. All screens were designed for use in occupational therapy; …


Online Deception Detection Using Bdi Agents, Richard Alan Merritts Jan 2013

Online Deception Detection Using Bdi Agents, Richard Alan Merritts

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

This research has two facets within separate research areas. The research area of Belief, Desire and Intention (BDI) agent capability development was extended. Deception detection research has been advanced with the development of automation using BDI agents. BDI agents performed tasks automatically and autonomously. This study used these characteristics to automate deception detection with limited intervention of human users. This was a useful research area resulting in a capability general enough to have practical application by private individuals, investigators, organizations and others. The need for this research is grounded in the fact that humans are not very effective at detecting …

Preparing Occupational Therapy And Physiotherapy Students For Work-Related Practice: A Clinical Education Initiative At One Australian University, Kerry Adam, Jenny Strong, Lucinda Chipchase Jan 2013

Preparing Occupational Therapy And Physiotherapy Students For Work-Related Practice: A Clinical Education Initiative At One Australian University, Kerry Adam, Jenny Strong, Lucinda Chipchase

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

Purpose: Despite increasing numbers of novice occupational therapists (OTs) and physiotherapists (PTs) entering work-related practice since the early 2000s, clinical learning opportunities are often limited due to legal and insurance issues. In response, clinical educators at The University of Queensland, Australia, developed an industry consultancy service to provide clinical learning for students in this field. Students delivered injury prevention services with supervision from experienced educators. This paper describes the program and an evaluation of student learning. Method: Twenty-six students (10 OTs and 16 PTs) participated voluntarily in an evaluation of the program during 2008 and 2009. Surveys pre and post-placement …

New Jersey Coaches’ Knowledge In Recognizing And Managing Concussion, Phil Hossler, Kerry-Ann Phang, Marian Passannante

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice

High school coaches’ knowledge regarding the recognition and management of concussive injuries in adolescent athletes has not been assessed in New Jersey. The purpose of this study was to assess high school coaches’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding recognition and management of concussive injuries in athletes. A cross-sectional anonymous 15-item web-based survey of high school coaches in New Jersey was performed between May 2010 and June 2010. Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests were used to compare proportions, and t-tests and analysis of variance were used to analyze group differences for normally distributed continuous data. When data were missing, these responses …

Effectiveness Of Evidence-Based Computerized Physician Order Entry Medication Order Sets Measured By Health Outcomes, Jacob Krive Jan 2013

Effectiveness Of Evidence-Based Computerized Physician Order Entry Medication Order Sets Measured By Health Outcomes, Jacob Krive

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

In the past three years, evidence based medicine emerged as a powerful force in an effort to improve quality and health outcomes, and to reduce cost of care. Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) applications brought safety and efficiency features to clinical settings, including ease of ordering medications via pre-defined sets. Order sets offer promise of standardized care beyond convenience features through evidence-based practices built upon a growing and powerful knowledge of clinical professionals to achieve potentially more consistent health outcomes with patients and to reduce frequency of medical errors, adverse drug effects, and unintended side effects during treatment. While order …


Assessing Behavioral Intention To Use Low Social Presence Icts For Interpersonal Task Completion Among College Students: With Special Consideration Toward Short Message Service (Sms) Text-Messaging, Jeffrey Scott Linney Jan 2013

Assessing Behavioral Intention To Use Low Social Presence Icts For Interpersonal Task Completion Among College Students: With Special Consideration Toward Short Message Service (Sms) Text-Messaging, Jeffrey Scott Linney

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

This study sought to investigate whether the popularity of Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) would impact the behavioral intention (BI) to use of these technologies to aid in interpersonal task completion. Out of the ICTs available today, the most popular is textmessaging, especially among a sizable percentage of the college population. Approximately 600 students at a small, private junior college in eastern North Carolina were invited to participate in this study with a target of 248 responses needed to comprise an adequate sample. A total of 259 usable surveys (n = 259) were received and analyzed.

Qualitative data collection instruments consisted …


Support Services For Millennial Undergraduates, Marie Pullan Jan 2013

Support Services For Millennial Undergraduates, Marie Pullan

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

Education has changed as a result of technological advances. Distance learning, particularly online learning, has rapidly increased its presence in higher education. Millennials, a new generation of students who have grown up with the Internet, are college-age. They expect access to the Internet to manage their daily lives. However, as they enter college, many discover that support services that are requisite to a successful college experience, are available on-campus but not online. The goal was to determine what contemporary college-aged students expect as online student support services so that institutions will know what to provide.

Data gathered through interviews with …


Pursuing And Completing An Undergraduate Computing Degree From A Female Perspective: A Quantitative And Qualitative Approach, Scott Ragsdale Jan 2013

Pursuing And Completing An Undergraduate Computing Degree From A Female Perspective: A Quantitative And Qualitative Approach, Scott Ragsdale

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

The computing profession in the United States would benefit from an increasingly diverse workforce, specifically a larger female presence, because a more gender-balanced workforce would likely result in better technological solutions to difficulties in many areas of American life. However, to achieve this balance, more women with a solid educational foundation in computing need to enter the computing workplace. Yet a common problem is most colleges and universities offering computer-related degrees have found it challenging to attract females to their programs. Also, the women who begin a computing major have shown a higher tendency than men to leave the major. …


Promoting The Affective Domain Within Online Education, Stephen Roche Jan 2013

Promoting The Affective Domain Within Online Education, Stephen Roche

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

In the past decade Higher Education Institutions have experienced tremendous growth in enrollments. To meet this demand, many higher education institutions have embraced online education and its requisite technologies. Online education has matured, and studies focusing on the cognitive domain indicate that distance education is as effective as the traditional face-to-face instructional modality. However, there is a scarcity of affective domain studies due to: a) the need for the institutions of higher education to perform quantitative studies to establish the quality of online education b) the affective domain's inherent subjective nature, and c) the educational research environment has slow recognition …


Employee Determinants To Share Knowledge In A Us Federal Government Environment, Kenneth White Jan 2013

Employee Determinants To Share Knowledge In A Us Federal Government Environment, Kenneth White

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

Although the literature indicates that knowledge sharing (KS) research is prevalent in the private sector, there is scant empirical research data about KS in the public sector. Moreover, organizations lack an understanding of employee KS behavior. This study investigated two research questions: First, how does the perceived importance of five determinants of KS behavior (organizational culture, workplace trust, incentives, management support, and technology) vary based upon the variables of job function, gender, and work category? Second, what is the relative importance of the five determinants of KS behavior to U.S. federal government employees? This descriptive study employed a Web-based survey …


An Examination Of The Acceptance, Adoption, And Diffusion Of Smartphone Devices With Senior Citizens., James M. Reneau Jan 2013

An Examination Of The Acceptance, Adoption, And Diffusion Of Smartphone Devices With Senior Citizens., James M. Reneau

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

This research looked at the process of the diffusion of an innovation in the context of smartphones with American senior citizens. The subject of diffusion, or spread of a technology, is a rich and varied topic with more than 60 years of research. Much of this diffusion research does not go beyond the study of the original acceptance of a new idea. An on-line and face-to-face questionnaire was used to collect data from 155 seniors on the entire process of diffusion. The questionnaire was adaptive in nature, focusing questions directly at participants based on where they were in the diffusion …


An Examination Of Internet Filtering And Safety Policy Trends And Issues In South Carolina's K-12 Public Schools, Mary E. Vicks Jan 2013

An Examination Of Internet Filtering And Safety Policy Trends And Issues In South Carolina's K-12 Public Schools, Mary E. Vicks

CCAC Theses and Dissertations

School districts have implemented filtering and safety policies in response to legislative and social mandates to protect students from the proliferation of objectionable online content. Subject related literature suggests these policies are more restrictive than legal mandates require and are adversely affecting information access and instruction. There is limited understanding of how filtering and safety policies are affecting teaching and learning because no comprehensive studies have investigated the issues and trends surrounding filtering and safety policy implementation. In order to improve existing safety policies, policymakers need research-based data identifying end user access issues that limit technology integration in the kindergarten-12th …
