Exploring The Impact Of A Brief Counseling Intervention For Improving Mental Health Factors And Learning Strategies Among College Students At An Hsi, James Ikonomopoulos, Kristopher Garza, Javier Cavazos Vela

Journal of Academic Underperformance

Abstract

This study evaluated a counseling intervention called the University Turn Around Program (U-Turn) for college students experiencing mental health issues and low academic performance. Social Anxiety, Hostility, and Alcohol Use were measured on the CCAPS-34, and Attitude, Information Processing, Selecting Main Ideas, Test Strategies, and Using Academic Resources were measured on the LASSI-3. Paired samples t-tests revealed improvement for each measure (d = 0.45 to 1.09) supporting the U-Turn program’s inclusion in university counseling centers.

The Effectiveness Of Developmental Academic Advising As A Retention Intervention For First-Generation Community College Students, Valarie A. Morgan, Mary Bess Pannel

Journal of Academic Underperformance

Student retention is a primary concern for community colleges since retention rates at the community college are unquestionably lower than retention rates at four-year institutions. First-generation college students are a high-risk student group of particular concern, because they make up over thirty percent of the undergraduate population and are two times more likely to exit college at the end of the first year of enrollment when compared to students whose parent or parents have a bachelor’s degree. The results of this study indicate that neither prescriptive advising nor developmental advising made a significant difference in student retention or graduation rates …

Vengeance Is Mine How Religious Southern White Supremacy Shaped The Prison Industrial Complex, Kristen Davis

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

White supremacy and the prison industrial complex have a long history of reinforcing one and other. Throughout this history Southern white religious groups have co-opted Christianity to inform their beliefs on crime and punishment. As a result, social, political, and economic efforts to maintain religious white supremacist ideals have bled into and shaped the criminal justice system. This research explores the evolution of these groups’ impact starting with American slavery and ending with the present day by assessing the strategic integration of Christianity, white supremacy, and the politics of crime. This chronological analysis reveals historical foundations as well as modern …

Burl Cain, Angola, And Parchman: The National Institution Of Slavery, Cameron Dougherty

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

Former warden of the Louisiana State Penitentiary and current commissioner of the Mississippi Department of Corrections Burl Cain’s career has drawn national attention for his supposed heraldry of penal reform. Having declared himself to be fulfilling a divinely mandated mission, Cain has frequently cited his criteria of a “good prison: good playing, good praying, good food and good medicine.”1 This article seeks to critically examine these criteria as they relate to Cain’s tenures in both Louisiana and Mississippi while answering the following question: what is the human impact of Burl Cain’s approach to wardency? Despite his focus on the provision …

Save, Gamble, Or Both? The Relationship Between Premium Bond Sales And Lottery Sales In The United Kingdom, Kaden Seth Grace

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

Four out of every ten Americans are unable to pay for an unexpected $400 bill out of their savings accounts. To ameliorate this problem, one policy to incentivize saving is a Prize-Linked Savings Account (PLSA). Unlike a traditional savings account that pays out a consistent rate of return, a PLSA pools the interest on all deposits and distributes the returns in randomly drawn prizes (similar to a lottery). However, PLSAs remain illegal in many areas due to a concern that the introduction of a private or public PLSA could cannibalize revenue from an existing state-sponsored lottery, thus restricting the state’s …

Soul Food And Soul Searching: How The Relationship Between Food In Black Culture And Racialized Beauty Standards Can Lead To Disordered Eating Symptoms In Black Women, Sydni Davis

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

Food is an important part of Black culture, expression, and history, but it is often underrepresented in research on eating disorders. Previous research has shown that Black women experience eating disorders comparable to White women when measured using the Questionnaire for Eating Disorder Diagnoses. In light of this, I wanted to know the stories behind women that might exhibit eating disorder symptoms. I used oral histories gathered from three women in my family and autoethnography to amplify the voices of Black women. I found that of my small sample size, 50% felt that they had an unhealthy relationship with food …

The Effect Of Music On The Memory Of Individuals With Alzheimer's Disease, Elizabeth Johns

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

Alzheimer’s disease is a degenerative cognitive condition. Recent research has explored nonpharmaceutical treatments such as music therapy for those affected by this illness. This paper aims to consolidate current knowledge related to music therapy and aspects of memory (long-term, shortterm, and mnemonic) in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. This paper also highlights some shortcomings in current research, as there is much work to be done before music therapy can be used as a viable treatment for Alzheimer’s disease.

Queer Politics In Pre And Post Independence Cameroon Through The Lens Of Weberian Political Authority, Logan Baggett

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

Policy in Cameroon, and on the African continent more generally, is often summarily referred to as the result of neopatrimonial authority. This paper rejects the framework of neopatrimonial authority in Cameroon, applying Weberian notions of charismatic authority to trace the development of queer policy from the pre-colonial period to the present. This paper first analyzes the impact of European colonialism on legal language and then investigates the rhetorical defense of this legal language following independence. Since statehood, the presidencies of Ahmadou Ahidjo (1960 - 1982) and Paul Biya (1982 - ) have implemented selective enforcement of inherited legalisms through near …
