Reports & Documents

The “I Choose H2O” campaign is a school-based pilot initiative developed by the University of New Mexico Prevention Research Center with SNAP-Ed NM funding from the USDA. Designed as a three-week social marketing effort, the campaign aimed to increase daily water consumption and reduce intake of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) among middle school students. The campaign engaged students and staff through activities such as water challenges, events, tastings, and prize incentives, while also encouraging broader school-level policy, systems, and environmental (PSE) changes.

This evaluation used direct observation before and after implementation to assess changes in water fountain usage and lunchtime beverage …

Mutualistas: La Sociedad Auxiliar De Mutua Beneficiaria, Antonito Colorado, 1937-1994, José A. Rivera Ph.D

Faculty Publications

Mutual Aid Societies proliferated in the American Southwest during a period of rapid social change, 1880-1930. In Hispanic towns, these societies were referred to as mutualistas, with a large number concentrated in the San Luis Valley of Colorado and rural counties of northcentral New Mexico. One of the men’s organizations, La Sociedad Protección Mutua de Trabajadores Unidos (SPMDTU), started in Antonito, Colorado, and quickly spread to other communities of southern Colorado and northern New Mexico and eventually to a few mining towns in Utah. With a tri-state model in place, women formed their own mutual protection societies: Sociedad Protectora …

Outcomes Related To College Students' Attachment, Suzanne Vaccaro

Psychology ETDs

Young adults aged 18-25 have the highest prevalence of mental health issues compared to adults over age 25. Mental health outcomes during emerging adulthood may be linked to early childhood variables, such as attachment, grounded in early caregiving, and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) (Hughes et al., 2017; Waters & Roisman, 2019). The current study examined relationships between the attachment script assessment (ASA), a measure intended to elicit secure base script knowledge, indicative of secure attachment state of mind, ACEs, and mental health outcomes among a diverse sample of college students aged 18 to 25. Although results did not indicate relationships …

Ai-Driven Emi Mitigation For Smart Healthcare: Generative Adversarial Networks And Edge Computing For Reliable Medical Systems, Mona Esmaeili

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from radio frequency (RF) sources poses a major challenge to digital systems, especially in high-electromagnetic environments. Tradi- tional electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) analysis often focuses on continuous wave (CW) interference and overlooks the effects of waveform modulation on EMI coupling. This thesis explores how modulated waveforms influence EMI coupling and introduces a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-based classification framework to distinguish between harmful and non-harmful EMI signals. The study extends conventional EMC analysis using machine learning (ML), showing that modulated EMI waveforms can in- crease coupling by up to 27% compared to CW signals. This highlights the need for …

Holistic Care For Breastfeeding Patients: Supporting Lactation In Critical Care, Marisa Francis Dnp, Rn, Cne, Clc, Adreanne Cordova Msn, Rn, Cne, Chse, Clc

Nursing Research and Scholarship

This poster emphasizes the critical need for support for breastfeeding patients in critical care units, such as Adult ICUs and Emergency Departments. Many breastfeeding patients experience disrupted breastfeeding during hospitalization, leading to issues like engorgement, mastitis, decrease in milk supply, and loss of the breastfeeding bond. Despite this, the importance of maintaining breastfeeding during hospitalization is often overlooked, and patients are often told to "pump and dump" (discard expressed milk), a practice that can harm both the infant's nutrition and the breastfeeding relationship.

Research indicates that continued breastfeeding for patients in critical care areas is safe and beneficial for both …

Arbitrating With Indian Tribes: Separability, Tribal Sovereign Immunity, And Exhaustion Of Tribal Remedies, Paul F. Kirgis

New Mexico Law Review

Indian tribes have emerged as significant contributors to the national and regional economies, notably through industries such as gaming, natural resource extraction, technology, and consumer lending. This increasing commercial activity brings with it increasing commercial disputes. Both Indian tribes and their nonmember counterparts need a fair and reliable forum to ensure that agreements are performed, loans repaid, and avoidable harms compensated. But the complex legal landscape of tribal sovereignty and jurisdiction complicates dispute resolution involving tribes. Tribes’ status as sovereign entities raises challenging issues of federal and state court jurisdiction, tribal sovereign immunity, and exhaustion of tribal remedies. Arbitration offers …

Walking The Line On Safety And Free Speech: Sidestepping First Amendment Challenges To Median Bans, Taylor J. Black

New Mexico Law Review

In 2021, the Tenth Circuit held a ban targeting pedestrians on street medians in Albuquerque, New Mexico unconstitutional under the First Amendment. Citing a crisis of pedestrian fatalities, Albuquerque has since promulgated a new pedestrian-safety ordinance with an adjusted median ban that prohibits pedestrians from sitting or standing on certain street medians. This ban not only fails to increase pedestrian safety but also arbitrarily blames the city’s poorest residents and poses a threat to First Amendment freedoms. Because the city cannot produce case-specific evidence to show that the ban is narrowly tailored to ameliorate a nonspeculative harm, the current ban …

Prisoners, Patients, And Privatization: Accountability For Corrections Contractors Under The New Mexico Civil Rights Act, Mayalyn Durham

New Mexico Law Review

New Mexico dedicates significant resources to incarceration—particularly with respect to prison medical care. Although New Mexico has mostly transitioned away from privately operated prisons, the New Mexico Corrections Department (NMCD) continues to contract with various corporations to provide health services in state-owned prisons. Not surprisingly, the private contractors’ cost-saving measures often result in the provision of grossly inadequate healthcare that constitutes cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment. Prisoner litigation under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, however, is fraught with substantive and procedural barriers to recovery. The New Mexico Civil Rights Act (NMCRA or “the Act”) provides an avenue of …

Unchecked Contempt: The Necessity Of Maximum Sanctions For Criminal Contempt In New Mexico, Cam Rosenberg

New Mexico Law Review

Few areas of law are so completely entrusted to judge’s discretion, and therefore engender the risk of judicial abuse, as the contempt power. Despite this risk, New Mexico has significantly expanded the criminal contempt power over the last three years. Yet the results of this expansion—which typically play out in trial courts with little publicity and rare appellate review—have not been studied in any detail. This Comment examines how New Mexico trial courts used criminal contempt from January 1, 2023, to October 20, 2024, in light of the broad discretion granted to these courts. In this timeframe, a select few …

Hybrid Neutrosophic Multi-Criteria Decision Model For Guest Selection In Collaborative Tourism Platforms, Vladimir Vega Falcón, Yoarnelys Vasallo Villalonga, Lorenzo Cevallos-Torres

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This study presents a hybrid multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model applied to the guest selection process in Airbnb-style vacation rentals. The model integrates the PAPRIKA method, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), and Neutrosophic TOPSIS to evaluate and rank potential guests based on multiple criteria prioritized by experienced property owners. Through the 1000minds software, pairwise comparisons were conducted to elicit preferences and derive normalized weights for six key criteria, with “review history” emerging as the most influential. These weights were then incorporated into classical and neutrosophic TOPSIS evaluations to account for uncertainty, indeterminacy, and subjectivity in guest profiles. Results highlight consistent rankings across …

Configurational Analysis Of Comprehensive Healthcare Quality: A Neutrosophic Set And Fsqca Approach, Jasson Humberto Ruiz Silva, Sandra Dayanara Correa Solis, Manuel Richard Naranjo Rodríguez, Fatima Lissett Zambrano Coello

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This study employs a nonlinear, neutrosophic approach to examine gaps in comprehensive healthcare by analyzing the interplay of Health Resource Availability (HRA), Professional Competence of Health Personnel (CPPS), and Accessibility and Response Time (ATR). Traditional statistical methods often fail to capture the uncertainty inherent in healthcare evaluations; this research addresses this by applying neutrosophic set theory to data from a survey of 15 professionals. fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) indicates that CPPS is a highly consistent (≈0.98) necessary condition for quality care, with HRA also being a strong necessary condition (≈0.89). As sufficient pathways, HRA individually (consistency ≈0.98, coverage …

A New Method For Measuring The Effectiveness Of Teacher Evaluation Instruments In Improving Pedagogical Performance In Higher Education Based On The Neutrosophic 2-Tuple Linguistic Model And Offset Logic, Judith Ernestina Vera-León, Tatiana Daniela Ríos-López, Noemí Fernanda Caizaluisa-Barros, Andrea Fernanda Pazmiño-Arcos, Jessica Carolina Analuisa-Maiguashca

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Assessment in a teaching-learning process allows teachers to determine to what degree students are assimilat-ing the content and are meeting the objectives of the study program. That is why when there are fine-tuned as-sessment instruments, it is assumed that there is better pedagogical performance. This is a consequence of the fact that the accuracy of the tests allows better adjustment of the classroom methods carried out by the teacher. In this article, we propose a technique that allows determining the degree of effectiveness of assessment in-struments on school results and their relationship with pedagogical performance. We focus specifically on higher …
