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
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 …

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 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 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 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 …

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 …

Exploring Emotional Dimensions In Educational Data: A Neutrosophic Sentiment Analysis Approach., Joffre Paladines Rodríguez, Adrián Del Pozo Biscarra, Felix Tamayo
Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
This study contributes to the literature by trying to understand which emotions translate to transcription in the classroom from the perspective of emotional impact on academic achievement in digital environments. This is specific to the chosen sample population from Instituto Superior Tecnológico Guayaquil, which operates within the Google Classroom environment. The importance of such a study is essential in twenty-first-century life be-cause relative emotions—positive or negative, from constructs like motivation, anxiety, or frustration—are in-tegral to positioning and learning processes in digital teaching environments which excessively appear in to-day's higher education curriculum. Yet the state-of-the-art does not highlight such a systematic …

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 …

Educational Dialogues And Shuar Cultural Identity: An Approach From The Neutrosophic N- Alectics., María Claudina Gómez Ayora, María Belén Centeno Defas, Isaac Roger Martínez
Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
This dissertation aims to assess the significance of dialogues in educational interventions that facilitate the con-struction and reinforcement of the cultural identity of Shuar students in rural multigrade classrooms from a Neutrosophic N-Alectic Assessment based on the Theory of Neutrosophy that seeks to approximate truth, deni-al, and indeterminacy within pedagogical realities. Therefore, it involves an interpretative qualitative study comprised of semi-structured, in-depth interviews with teachers and students, participant observation in class-rooms, and neutrosophic discursive analysis of dialogue occurring in bilingual learning environments. Results show that dialogue surrounding ancestral stories, purposeful interaction with the Shuar language, and subse-quent community involvement facilitate …

Correlates Of Internalized Weight Bias In An Ethnically Diverse College Sample, Amanda Cipolla
Correlates Of Internalized Weight Bias In An Ethnically Diverse College Sample, Amanda Cipolla
Psychology ETDs
Understanding factors related to internalized weight bias (IWB), particularly among diverse populations, is an important avenue of research to inform interventions aimed at reducing IWB. This study surveyed college students (n = 319) about their body image, social media use, and culture. ANOVA, multiple regression, and hierarchical regressions were used to analyze data. Overall, body image flexibility emerged as a strongly negatively related to IWB, indicating potentially protective qualities. Physical appearance comparison, objectified body consciousness, and BMI emerged as maladaptive correlates. Findings related to social media were more complicated, with appearance related social media consciousness as an important negative correlate, …
Co-Parenting With The Land In Amazonian Ecuador: Speech, Breath, And Personhood Among The Napo, Runa, Kate R. Nielsen
Co-Parenting With The Land In Amazonian Ecuador: Speech, Breath, And Personhood Among The Napo, Runa, Kate R. Nielsen
Anthropology ETDs
This paper explores the processes of personhood in lowland Amazonia and specifically, Kichwa-speaking communities in Ecuador. In lowland Amazonia, personhood is developed through a multitude of social processes in contrast to the Western perception of birth as the defining moment of personhood. As noted in the current literature, an infants' personhood emerges through their relationships with family and community This thesis investigates whether a similar process exists among Kichwa speakers. While Kichwa infants undergo processes akin to their lowland Amazonian neighbors, such as body manipulation and food taboos, shared breath, often through speech, is vital to the ebbs and flows …
Quest For Purpose In Education: An Autoethnographic Study Of A Chinese Student’S Cross- Cultural Journey Through Logotherapy And Culturally Relevant Leadership, Bingsheng Chen
Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs
This autoethnography examines a Chinese student's search for meaning while transitioning between Chinese and U.S. academic systems, shaped by the interplay of cultural values, societal pressures, and personal agency. Guided by Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy and Culturally Relevant Leadership (CRL), the study uses reflexive narrative analysis to explore how this personal quest for purpose intersected with institutional structures and cultural contexts (e.g., St. John's College, University of New Mexico). Illuminating profound challenges—including cultural shock, systemic inequities, and the emotional toll of adaptation—the research reveals a transformative journey of navigating dissonance, reframing adversity, embracing a dual cultural identity, and ultimately finding meaning …

The Effects Of Crf1 Antagonism On Spatial Navigation And Long-Term Potentiation In The Tgf344-Ad Model Of Alzheimer’S Disease, Nicole C. Reyna
Psychology ETDs
Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by neurobiological deterioration and cognitive impairment that is irreversible. Alzheimer’s disease patients exhibit increased stress system abnormalities including upregulation of the corticotropin releasing factor type 1 receptor (CRF1) and elevated levels of cortisol. People experiencing increased psychological distress in life are more likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and experience faster rates of neurocognitive decline. Therefore, the current dissertation aimed to examine the underlying systems involved in Alzheimer’s disease neuropathology and stress. Administration of the CRF1 antagonist, Antalarmin, reduces AD pathogenesis and anxiety-like behavior in models of Alzheimer’s disease. Thus, the current project used the …
Physiological Regulation And Paths To Social Status In Chimpanzees, Megan F. Cole
Physiological Regulation And Paths To Social Status In Chimpanzees, Megan F. Cole
Anthropology ETDs
In this dissertation, I leverage longitudinal comparative data from naturalistic chimpanzee populations to examine the evolutionary context for healthy aging and cooperative leadership. First, I use health data from semi-free-ranging chimpanzees living at African sanctuaries (2012-2023) to demonstrate that the effects of diet and exercise that promote healthy aging in humans are shared with chimpanzees. Semi-free-ranging chimpanzees exhibit a slower pace of biological aging compared to sedentary laboratory chimpanzees (Chapter 2). Sanctuary chimpanzees also have healthier inflammatory profiles, with no evidence of chronic inflammaging (Chapter 3). Second, I use hormonal and behavioral data from wild chimpanzees at Kanyawara (2005-2019) to …

Women In The Traditional Gender System Through Sexualized And Inappropriate Performances In The Modern Advertisements, Ruoning Xia
Communication ETDs
This study examined the body and gender identity performances and narratives of women in different Chinese advertisements, and deconstructed the motivation and representation of humiliation, sexual harassment, and gender offside toward women in public spaces. The study takes feminism, patriarchal capitalism, and rhetorical criticism to analyze the situation of Chinese women’s identity and gender in the traditional gender system, as well as the status of women’s situations with patriarchy and capitalism discourses. Through the analysis of the advertisements, the study criticized the gender (mis)representation of women’s gender identity and bodies among women's identities, bodies, and patriarchy, and deconstructs the gender …
Organizing In The Hybrid Media System: Local And International Organizing In The Metoo Movement, Jenna Dole
Organizing In The Hybrid Media System: Local And International Organizing In The Metoo Movement, Jenna Dole
Sociology ETDs
Movements today are operating in a hybrid media system, in which activists negotiate the use of traditional and social media. Although most of what we know of the MeToo movement comes from studies of the #MeToo campaign and online organizing, the movement has its foundations in local organizing and in the wake of the viral campaign additional local organizing efforts took place. Using semi-structured interviews with leaders of a local MeToo organizing group and Facebook posts from this local group and a large, international MeToo Facebook group, this study explores the role of local organizing coming out of an international, …
Between Two Countries: The Impact Of Globalization And Deglobalization On Generation 1.5 Chinese International Students In The U.S., Meiyi Jin
Communication ETDs
This study examines how Generation 1.5 Chinese international students, those who moved to the U.S. as teenagers and completed secondary education there, construct their identities amid globalization and the growing trend of deglobalization. Through in-depth interviews with 10 participants, it explores how they navigate their transnational experiences, negotiate belonging, and respond to shifting cultural expectations and perceptions from both China and the U.S. Using critical thematic analysis, the study goes beyond identifying recurring themes by analyzing the power relations, discourses, and sociopolitical dynamics that shape participants’ experiences. Findings reveal that geopolitical tensions, restrictive policies, and evolving public discourse in both …
Moral Incongruence And Internet Gaming Disorder, Regina Tahk
Moral Incongruence And Internet Gaming Disorder, Regina Tahk
Psychology ETDs
Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) lacks clear diagnostic thresholds, with self-reported addiction often serving as the primary indicator of problematic gaming. However, little research has explored factors influencing these self-perceptions. This study examined whether moral incongruence—defined as the interaction between gaming frequency and moral disapproval of gaming—predicts self-reported gaming addiction. Using secondary data from a U.S. census-matched YouGov sample (n = 2,813), moderation analyses found that moral incongruence significantly strengthened the association between gaming frequency and self-reported addiction when using the validated Ten-Item Internet Gaming Disorder Test (IGDT-10), but not when using the unvalidated NIDA-ASSIST gaming item. Robustness checks using censored …
Negotiating (Im)Migrant Identity In The (Un)Assimilated Nation: American Literature Of The Late Nineteenth Century, Haley M. Steffens
Negotiating (Im)Migrant Identity In The (Un)Assimilated Nation: American Literature Of The Late Nineteenth Century, Haley M. Steffens
English Language and Literature ETDs
This dissertation examines representations of immigration, assimilation, and multinational cultural identity in late nineteenth-century American literature, autobiography, and print culture. Through a comparative analysis of diverse authors and immigrant communities, the project explores how literary and popular culture narratives framed the expectations and limitations of assimilation for disparate populations. By contextualizing these works within historical immigration policies, labor economies, government instability, and burgeoning nationalism, this study reveals how fiction and media shaped public attitudes toward assimilation and influenced policy. Ultimately, this dissertation argues that late, long-nineteenth-century literature functioned as both a reflection of and response to national debates about immigration, …
Partnering For Youth Empowerment: Establishing Boys And Girls Clubs In Tribal Communities, Johnny Abeyta Jr.
Partnering For Youth Empowerment: Establishing Boys And Girls Clubs In Tribal Communities, Johnny Abeyta Jr.
Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs
This study examined why Boys and Girls Clubs are not available in every tribal community and explored how culturally grounded youth programs support leadership, identity, and sovereignty. Using Tribal Critical Race Theory, Narrative Inquiry, and Indigenous Research Methods, the study centered the voices of Pueblo leaders, educators, policymakers, and alumni. Interviews identified barriers related to funding, transportation, facilities, and policy alignment. Participants described culture, mentorship, and safe spaces as essential for youth belonging and empowerment. The study introduced the Relational Sovereignty Model, which explains how cultural teachings, shared learning, resilience, and community care work together to support Indigenous youth. The …
