Under Pressure: Performance Loads And Recovery In Ncaa Division I Women’S Soccer During Fixture Congestion, Jade X. Dawson, Fabiano T. Amorim

Health, Exercise, and Sports Sciences ETDs

Soccer places high physiological demands on athletes, and match congestion—playing more than two games per week—is a growing concern at the NCAA Division I level. Limited recovery time between matches can impair performance and increase injury risk, prompting widespread use of recovery strategies. However, research on their effectiveness remains inconclusive, and most existing studies focus on male athletes, leaving a gap in evidence specific to female players. This review and observational study aim to evaluate non-nutritional recovery strategies in NCAA Division I women’s soccer and examine how recovery duration influences performance.

Match load data were collected from eleven female athletes …

Speak Now With The Courage To Confront: An Educational Intervention To Address Bullying, Dominique Desiree Gomez

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

Abstract

Background: Nurse-to-nurse bullying is a critical issue within the nursing profession, impacting close to half of all nurses. This phenomenon, articulated by the phrase "nurses eat their young," detrimentally influences employee retention, job satisfaction, morale, and ultimately, patient care. Furthermore, nurse-to-nurse bullying significantly affects the well-being of nursing professionals, particularly targeting novice nurses. This targeting raises substantial concerns regarding their retention, as many consider leaving the profession within their initial years of practice due to experiences of bullying. The educational intervention project titled “Speak Now with the Courage to Confront” is designed to mitigate bullying among novice nurses through …

Educating Healthcare Providers To Prevent And Mitigate The Effects Of Zoom Fatigue, Andrea Lima

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

Zoom Fatigue (ZF), or physical and neuropsychological responses to excessive videoconferencing (VC), increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Like burnout, ZF can compromise patient safety by causing decreased job satisfaction, social isolation, disrupted focus, and difficulty empathizing with patients. This Plan-Do-Study-Act quality improvement project aimed to assess feelings about VC, raise awareness of the adverse effects of overuse, and empower primary care providers (PCPs) to improve their work experiences. A group of on-site PCPs at a tertiary care medical center in the Southwest, who continued holding exclusive virtual team meetings after the pandemic, was asked to complete the 15-question Zoom Exhaustion …

Vocabulary Learning Strategies Among Saudi Efl Military Cadets: Patterns And Preferences, Fahad Aldosari

Language, Literacy, and Sociocultural Studies ETDs

This study investigates the vocabulary learning strategies (VLSs) of 126 Saudi military EFL cadets, an underexplored group in second language acquisition research. Using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, a questionnaire identified the most and least used strategies, followed by interviews with 10 participants for deeper insights. Findings show cadets frequently use bilingual dictionaries, vocabulary lists, and group work, while cognitive strategies like written repetition and note-taking are underutilized. No significant differences in VLS use were found between Level 1 and Level 2 cadets, suggesting stable strategy preferences. Additionally, emerging strategies such as gamified learning and collaborative storytelling indicate a shift …

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 …

Sensory Marketing Analysis: Exploring Uncertainty And Contradiction In Consumer Decision-Making. A Multineutrosophic Analysis With Aras, Eluard Alexander Mendoza Zenozain, Rosa María Criollo Delgado, Julio César Vidal Rischmoller

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Sensory marketing studies how visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and gustatory stimuli influence consumer decisions, a complex process characterized by contradictions and uncertainties. Previous research has mainly explored individual senses, leaving a gap regarding the multisensory interactions and their inherent ambiguity. This study addresses this issue by proposing a novel methodological approach combining Multineutrosophic Analysis with the Additive Ratio Assessment (ARAS) method. The proposed framework captures the subjective complexity of sensory experiences, quantifying contradictions and uncertainties typically overlooked by traditional models. Findings indicate that visual stimuli initially dominate consumer attraction but lose strength when conflicting sensations, such as unpleasant smells or …

Modeling Barriers And Facilitators Of Access To Sport Through Neutrosophic Cognitive Maps., Carlos Alcívar-Trejo, Karem González-Palma, Fidel Márquez-Sánchez, Fátima Campos-Cárdenas, Adriana María Estupiñán Sera

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This study's objective was to assess barriers and facilitators to access to sport utilizing neutrosophic cognitive maps to identify variables contributing to sports participation. Therefore, a qualitative neutrosophic theory ap-proach was taken—this approach allows for mapping of such relationships even in uncertain situations. Data col-lection efforts consisted of expert interviews and surveys of current and former athletes, which were analyzed to create cognitive maps representing interdependent positional relationships of variables such as resources, moti-vation, and governmental resources. Among the major results are that the most prominent barriers are lack of adequate resources, fiscal resources, and socioeconomic equity while the most …

Neutrosophic Assessment Of Legal Certainty In The Digital Transformation Of Logistics In Callao: A Comparative Study Based On Svnn And The Neutrosophic Analytic Hierarchy Process (Ahp)., Edwin Collazos Paucar, Jorge Luis Mera Ramírez, Rilke Chong Vela, Jorge Luis Arrué Flores, Víctor Linares Pezo, José Regulo Ramírez Águila, Víctor Raúl Reategui Paredes

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The digitalization of the logistics sector in Callao challenges the notion of legal certainty. The implementation of new technologies such as electronic signatures and smart contracts generates uncertainty, exposing individuals and legal entities to greater risks if adequate legal protection is not in place. Although prior research on regulatory compliance exists, little has been done to certify legality over time and in the present. To address legal ambiguity and contradictions, this study proposes a neutrosophic approach. A model is constructed by applying the logic of Single Valued Neutrosophic Numbers (SVNN) and weighting through the Neutrosophic Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). By …

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This study systematically examines the applications of neutrosophic logic in Ecuadorian medicine, focusing on its role in improving medical decision making and preventive healthcare. By conducting a structured literature review selected articles, the research highlights how neutrosophic methods—such as Single-Valued Neutrosophic Sets (SVNS) and Neutrosophic Cognitive Maps (NCMs)—address uncertainty, indeterminacy, and contradictions inherent in clinical and public health data. Key contributions include improved diagnostic accuracy in maternal health, risk assessment for chronic diseases, and ethical decision making in telemedicine, demonstrating neutrosophic logic’s superiority over traditional binary approaches. The findings advocate for a broader implementation of neutrosophic frameworks in Ecuador’s healthcare …

A Neutrosophic Approach To Evaluating Self-Perceived Professional Competency In Dentistry Students And Graduates, Frederick Zevallos- Velasquez, Yessika Madelaine Abarca Arias, Juvita Dina Soto Hilario, Jairo Rafael Vidaurre Urrelo, Alejandro Chávez Paredes, Katia Medina-Calderon

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This article addresses a key issue in dental education: how recent graduates and final-year students at the Faculty of Dentistry of the National University of San Marcos (UNMSM) perceive their readiness for professional practice. The study explores these self-assessments amid uncertainty, especially due to disruptions in clinical training during health restrictions. Traditional methods often overlook the ambiguity present in human perceptions during crises. To fill this gap, the study applies neutrosophic Z numbers, a method that captures degrees of certainty, indeterminacy, and contradiction in responses. Five competency dimensions were evaluated, revealing overall confidence in professional preparation but significant uncertainty in …

Intercultural Dialogue In The Meeting On Neutrosophy And Latin American Worldviews: A Perspective From The Náhuat Indigenous Chair Of The Technological University Of El Salvador, Morena Guadalupe Magaña

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This article presents a reflective analysis of the intercultural forum held during the Meeting on Neutrosophy and Latin American Worldviews, focusing on the contribution of the Náhuat Indigenous Chair at the Technological University of El Salvador. Drawing on philosophical and decolonial frameworks, it explores how the revitalization of the Náhuat language serves as both an act of cultural resistance and an epistemological statement. The Chair's initiatives—including teacher training, language certification, and community-based educational projects—are examined as concrete expressions of intercultural commitment. These efforts are contextualized within a broader critique of historical erasure, media manipulation, and social forgetting that have affected …

Neutrosophic Causal Analysis Of Gamification Strategies For Promoting Reading Habits In Eighth-Grade Students, Roger Martinez Isaac, Gladis Narciza Vargas Azuero, María Narcisa Carrillo Suárez, Elsy Rodríguez Revelo

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This study explores the connection between gamification elements and the development of reading habits among eighth-grade students through neutrosophic set theory and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). This investigation is different from previous ones because most studies focused on gamification fail to embrace the uncertainty and complexity of real life when it comes to generalizability. As a result, a neutrosophic framework was established for this study. To this end, 15 individuals answered a neutrosophic Likert scale questionnaire which resulted in a conglomerate of ratings that depicts their opinion on the gamified elements, technology use, and feedback loop systems afforded to …

Neutrosophic Psychology Of Teachers: Addressing Perceptions Of Uncertainty And Motivation In The Implementation Of Thinking Strategies, Edward David Ticona Ponce, Adán Humberto Estela Estela, Manuel Cesar Vildoso Villega, Pierre Sean Rojas Padilla, Virgilio Vildoso Gonzales, Hortencio Flores Flores, Carlos Fretel Martínez

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

This study addresses a key challenge in contemporary education: teachers' psychological resistance to implementing critical thinking strategies, a problem compounded by ambivalent perceptions, indeterminate motivations, and a lack of tools to measure these complexities. Although previous research has explored pedagogical barriers, little has examined the subjective and inconsistent dimension of teachers' attitudes, leaving a gap in our understanding of how uncertainty affects the adoption of educational innovations. To address this, the article proposes a framework based on Neutrosophic Psychology, which quantifies contradictions in teachers' beliefs (such as the coexistence of genuine motivation and external pressures) using neutrosophic numbers, applying adaptive …

Neutrosophic Cognitive Maps To Analyze Barriers And Opportunities In The Development Of Critical Thinking Through Inquiry Strategies In Public Universities, Betsy Maryetta Quispe Baca, Adán Humberto Estela Estela, Vladímir Bendezú Pérez, Yessika Madelaine Abarca Arias, Manuel Cesar Vildoso Villegas, Pierre Sean Rojas Padilla, Juvita Dina Soto

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

The effective implementation of inquiry strategies in higher education is hampered by multiple interconnected fac-tors, from institutional constraints to pedagogical barriers, creating a complex scenario that traditional analysis methods fail to fully capture. This problem takes on particular relevance in the current context, where the devel-opment of critical thinking has become a fundamental competency for facing the challenges of constantly changing societies. While numerous studies on active pedagogies exist, there remains a notable lack of approaches that can adequately manage the ambiguity, contradictions, and uncertainty inherent in real-life educational systems. To ad-dress this limitation, this research proposes an innovative analytical …

Neutrosophic Evaluation Of Conventional And Non-Conventional Resources In Higher Education, Walter Cente Pérez, Hortencio Flores Flores, Manuel Cesar Vildoso Villegas, Adán Humberto Estela Estela, Carlos Fretel Martínez, Virgilio Vildoso Gonzales, Eli Carrillo Vásquez

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems

Evaluating the effectiveness of teaching resources in higher education faces the challenge of inherent subjectivi-ty and ambiguity in pedagogical processes. Existing studies often oversimplify the complexity of the educa-tional phenomenon. This research proposes an innovative model combining neutrosophic theory with mul-ticriteria decision-making methods (specifically SVNLOWAD-TOPSIS) to simultaneously assess truth, falsity, and indeterminacy in resource effectiveness. The methodological framework, acknowledging the plithogenic nature of educational processes, uses a mixed-method design integrating expert perceptions synthesized via neutrosophic operators. A case study evaluating four resource types—traditional classes, online platforms, vir-tual simulations, and Project-Based Learning (PBL)—demonstrated that PBL is the most effective, followed by …
