Influence Of Academic Self-Efficacy On The Early Academic Success Of Underrepresented Minority Nursing Students Enrolled In The First Semester Of A Baccalaureate Nursing Program, Connie Hataway Jan 2016

Influence Of Academic Self-Efficacy On The Early Academic Success Of Underrepresented Minority Nursing Students Enrolled In The First Semester Of A Baccalaureate Nursing Program, Connie Hataway

Student Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

The identification of reliable predictors of early academic achievement is imperative for the retention and graduation of all nursing students, and particularly underrepresented minority (URM) students. Students with a high sense of academic self-efficacy exhibit greater persistence and interest in their academic performance, a premise that led to this investigation of self-efficacy as a variable affecting early academic success among baccalaureate nursing students. The purpose of this study was to (a) to determine if a significant relationship existed between academic self-efficacy and successful progression for first semester baccalaureate nursing students in general and URM students specifically, (b) determine the predictive …


Comparison Of Resistance To Sliding Between Brackets And Archwires Utilizing Various Ligature Materials, Jagdesh Dudani Jan 2016

Comparison Of Resistance To Sliding Between Brackets And Archwires Utilizing Various Ligature Materials, Jagdesh Dudani

Student Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between ligature material and frictional force created during orthodontic cuspid retraction. Maximum static and mean kinetic frictional resistance between conventional metallic orthodontic appliances and esthetic orthodontic appliances will be compared as well. Background: The use of ceramic brackets in conjunction with coated archwires and ligatures as an alternative to conventional stainless steel appliances has increased in response to the demand for more esthetic orthodontic appliances. Esthetic appliances are associated with increased frictional forces and therefore thought to slow the orthodontic treatment. Knowledge of frictional forces generated within various orthodontic …


Memory Performance In Children With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: Neocortical Vs. Dual Pathologies, Brandon M. Korman Jan 2016

Memory Performance In Children With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: Neocortical Vs. Dual Pathologies, Brandon M. Korman

Theses and Dissertations

This study investigated memory in children with temporal lobe epilepsy and the ability to discern hippocampal dysfunction with conventional memory tests that are typically used to detect more global memory impairment. All data was obtained retrospectively from the epilepsy surgery program at a local children’s hospital. The research population consisted of 54 children with intractable epilepsy of temporal onset, balanced across pathology types (with and without hippocampal disease) and other demographics. Each was given a clinical battery prior to surgical intervention, which included the WRAML/WRAML2 Verbal Learning subtest from which the dependent variables for this study were extracted. The research …


Toward A Model Of 12-Step Engagement: Predicting Recovery Involvement In Narcotics Anonymous, Hillary L. Howrey Jan 2016

Toward A Model Of 12-Step Engagement: Predicting Recovery Involvement In Narcotics Anonymous, Hillary L. Howrey

Theses and Dissertations

Substance use disorders (SUDs) affect a significant portion of the population and are noteworthy public health concerns. Mutual help organizations (MHOs) such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous are considered evidence-based practices for SUDs. Despite a growing body of research examining mechanisms of change in MHOs, relatively few investigations of 12-step organizations have been theory-driven. Theory-based models of recovery provide a more comprehensive view of the range of individual factors affecting individuals in recovery and how and why they might engage in recovery-related behaviors. Stress and coping theory fills a gap in explaining how improvements occur as a result of …
