Victims' Perception Of Power And Identity Intersections: A Human Trafficking Experience, Kathleen M. Preble
Victims' Perception Of Power And Identity Intersections: A Human Trafficking Experience, Kathleen M. Preble
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
Human trafficking has become increasingly recognized as a serious form of violence against women. In the identification of human trafficking cases, proof of three elements are required according to the Trafficking Victim’s Protection Act (TVPA): force, fraud, and coercion. While force and fraud appear to be more universally conceptualized across service professionals, there is little consensus concerning the element of coercion. I suggest that it is power, not coercion, that is the key construct in recruiting and maintaining victims of trafficking, and that coercion is a kind of power. Thus, this study examined power in the recruitment and maintaining of …
Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions To Reduce Suicide Attempt And Completion Among Female Service Members And Veterans: A Systematic Review, Alletia D. Smith
Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions To Reduce Suicide Attempt And Completion Among Female Service Members And Veterans: A Systematic Review, Alletia D. Smith
Social Work Theses - Archive
This thesis is a semi-replication study that looks at the current knowledge base regarding the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as an intervention to reduce suicide attempt or suicide completion vs. TAU, with the female active-duty and veteran populations. Since 2008, when the original study was conducted, there has been a scarce amount of intervention studies conducted to test CBT interventions within this population. This research used a systematic review methodology to conduct analysis of the 2 studies that were found to meet inclusion criteria. The overall synthesis of both studies found that the combined results of the included …
The Nature Of Kinship Care Relationships And Permanency Outcomes For Foster Children: Implications For Social Work Practice, Policy, And Research, Jolynne Batchelor
The Nature Of Kinship Care Relationships And Permanency Outcomes For Foster Children: Implications For Social Work Practice, Policy, And Research, Jolynne Batchelor
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
In recent history, kinship care has become the preferred alternative for placement of children in foster care as evidenced by its codification in federal and state policies. Though kinship caregivers tend to fare more poorly on socioeconomic factors than traditional foster and adoptive parents, children who experience kinship care tend to experience better safety and permanency than children in nonkin placements. The term “kinship” is most often broadly defined in child welfare and includes a child’s blood relatives and others who share no biological ties but have a close psychological relationship with the child. Yet, little is known to date …
Payday Lending: A Value-Critical Analysis Of Three State Solutions, Jocelyn Everett
Payday Lending: A Value-Critical Analysis Of Three State Solutions, Jocelyn Everett
Social Work Theses - Archive
Payday lending has been a topic of great debate in the US and other developed countries. While some argue that lenders prey on low income and minority populations and trap them in a cycle of debt, others maintain that payday loans fulfill an otherwise unmet need for those in unexpected financial distress. Furthermore, although a consensus has not yet been reached concerning why, there exists a population of payday loan borrowers who continue to roll over short-term loans in an effort to solve their long-term financial problems. This is of particular concern to the field of social work because as …

Preoperative Depression And Postopertive Outcomes In Older Adult Cardiac Surgery Patients, Alaina Michelle Tellson
Preoperative Depression And Postopertive Outcomes In Older Adult Cardiac Surgery Patients, Alaina Michelle Tellson
Nursing Dissertations - Archive
Depression following cardiac surgery has been reported in older adults; however, the evidence to date does not clearly specify the onset of depression and its relationship to cardiac surgery. The purpose of this descriptive, correlational study was to examine the association between preoperative depression and selected postoperative outcomes in older adults following CABG surgery. The five selected postoperative outcomes were 30 day readmission rate, hospital length of stay, intensive care unit length of stay, ventilator time, and 30 day mortality. A sample size of 87 older adult cardiovascular surgery patients was selected for this study. Thirteen (14.9%) of the participants …

Protective Sex: How Being In-Tune With Sexuality Protects Young Women, Catherine Elinor Ertel Baggett
Protective Sex: How Being In-Tune With Sexuality Protects Young Women, Catherine Elinor Ertel Baggett
Social Work Theses - Archive
Sexuality has been a widely studied topic which has produced a diverse body of literature covering many different perspectives. However, despite the wealth of knowledge on the topic of sexuality, society maintains a strong taboo on the subject, especially concerning the sexuality of women. Sexual expression is often discouraged in women and used to judge their worth. Coming from a feminist perspective, Objectification Theory (Frederickson & Roberts, 1997) posits that the sexual objectification of women’s bodies, forcing women to value themselves only in terms of how sexually attractive they are to others, has resulted in lower self-esteem and higher instances …
The Impact Of Cues And User Interaction On The Memorability Of System-Assigned Random Passwords, Mahdi Nasrullah Al Ameen
The Impact Of Cues And User Interaction On The Memorability Of System-Assigned Random Passwords, Mahdi Nasrullah Al Ameen
Computer Science and Engineering Dissertations - Archive
Given the choice, users produce passwords reflecting common strategies and patterns that ease recall but offer uncertain and often weak security. Addressing this usability-security tension in user authentication remains the key research issue in password studies for decades. In this thesis, we aim to understand how humans' cognitive abilities could be leveraged to design more secure and memorable authentication schemes. To achieve this goal, we draw upon multiple theories from cognitive psychology and implement them in the context of improving memorability for system-assigned random passwords. We argue that while the system assigns random passwords, it should also help users with …
Exploring Sex Differences In Morphine Withdrawal-Induced Alterations Of The Ventral Tegmental Area, Samara Morris Bobzean
Exploring Sex Differences In Morphine Withdrawal-Induced Alterations Of The Ventral Tegmental Area, Samara Morris Bobzean
Psychology Dissertations - Archive
Opioid withdrawal syndrome is a feature common to chronic opioid use that often serves as a powerful motivator of continued drug use. GABA-ergic neurons in the tail of the ventral tegmental area (tVTA) are implicated in mediating responses to opioids and opioid withdrawal. The tVTA regulates the effects of opioids on VTA dopamine neurons and a number of earlier studies have shown that alterations in levels of CREB within the tVTA profoundly affect drug-motivated behaviors. Unfortunately, the mechanisms underlying morphine withdrawal have been studied almost exclusively using men and male animals. The objectives of the current study are to investigate …
Campus Based Sexual Assault And Dating Violence: A Review Of Study Contexts And Participants, Rachel Voth Schrag
Campus Based Sexual Assault And Dating Violence: A Review Of Study Contexts And Participants, Rachel Voth Schrag
Social Work Faculty Publications & Presentations-Archive
Colleges are working to study and address sexual assault (SA) and dating violence (DV) on campus. This quantitative systematic review assessed 196 studies of SA and DV to evaluate if the literature fully reflects the demographics of American higher education. Results show disproportionate representation in the populations and settings in which research is occurring. No studies occurred at associates/2-year institutions, and participants are substantially younger and whiter than American college students overall. Education and prevention efforts that do not take into account the bias in these studies may exacerbate intersectional barriers for students. [The published Version of this work, published …

This mixed methods study was designed to investigate how couples experience, understand, and sustain their long-term relationships. This article utilizes the cross-sectional, community sample (N = 8,132) from this combined data set, drawn primarily from the United Kingdom, United States, and Australia. A two-part approach to scale …

The rapid increase in grandparents caring for grandchildren has received growing attention, but little research has focused on Chinese-American grandparents and their caregiving experiences. Drawing on cross-sectional data from the Population Study of Chinese Elderly—a communityengaged, epidemiological study of Chinese-American adults aged 60 and older, the relationships between caregiving experiences and psychological well-being were examined. Of 2,365 older adults who answered the question about grandparent caregiving, 818 (35%) were designated as caregivers, spending an average of 12 hours a week on childcare. About one in five caregivers reported caregiving burden, pressure, or negative health effect of caregiving. Caregivers had better …
