Factors That Contribute To The Knowledge, Health Beliefs, Attitudes, And Behaviors Regarding Sickle Cell Disease Among College Students, Marcella Williams-Smith
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
SCD and Thalassemia are considered the two major Hemoglobin Disorders, and have recently been declared a global health problem by the World Health Organization (WHO). Despite SCD being a global health issue, the United States (US) still focuses on treatment and management of the disease rather than prevention. The overall purpose of this study was to assess the factors that contribute to knowledge, health beliefs, and attitudes about SCD, and screening behaviors among college students to provide pertinent information for SCD prevention. A non-experimental, cross-sectional research design using a convenience sample of college students was used for this study. Descriptive …
Predictors Of Timing In Hospice Utilization: The Role Of Family In The Decision For Hospice Care, Cara Lynn Wallace
Predictors Of Timing In Hospice Utilization: The Role Of Family In The Decision For Hospice Care, Cara Lynn Wallace
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
Patients and families coping with a terminal illness are faced with a number of decisions over the course of their disease. The decision to continue further treatment versus utilization of a palliative approach, such as hospice, is often one of the most difficult and complex. There are many barriers to hospice care, causing the service to be underutilized. Family is a significant force in patients' choice for palliative care and patients place greater importance on communications related to end-of-life care with their family than with health care professionals. However, dying remains a taboo conversation, a key barrier to end-of-life care. …
The Adoption Of Restorative Justice As A State Policy Response To Criminal Justice Concerns: A Mixed Methods Inquiry, Shannon Marie Sliva
The Adoption Of Restorative Justice As A State Policy Response To Criminal Justice Concerns: A Mixed Methods Inquiry, Shannon Marie Sliva
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
Over the past two decades, 32 states have enacted legislation supporting the use of restorative justice as crime response. The purpose of this study is to explore the contexts in which restorative justice has been adopted as a policy solution for juveniles and adults by answering the following questions: (1) Are internal characteristics of American states correlated with the adoption of restorative justice legislation between 1988 and 2014? (2) How have social, economic, political, or other factors promoted or impeded the adoption of restorative justice legislation in key states? This study uses a convergent-parallel mixed-methods approach to develop an empirically …
Urbanization Versus Sanitation: Exploring The Effectiveness Of Social Indicators On Reducing The Infant Mortality Rate In Developing Countries, Leslie M. Andringa
Urbanization Versus Sanitation: Exploring The Effectiveness Of Social Indicators On Reducing The Infant Mortality Rate In Developing Countries, Leslie M. Andringa
Social Work Theses - Archive
Despite numerous health gains around the globe, reducing infant mortality continues to be a central Millennium Development Goal. Low- and middle-income countries continue to transition epidemiologically, prompting international investments and a transferring of ideas, technology, and influences into developing nations’ systems. In this systematic way, along with capital and social aid, the translation of knowledge and values are passed. As globalization persists in an ever-changing world, and urbanization efforts receive more assistance funding than sanitation improvements, this paper aims to explore which is the most effective approach for reducing the infant mortality rate (IMR) in developing countries. Indicators from a …
Cyber Abuse And College Students: New Risk Factors In Intimate Partner Violence, S. Elizabeth Wick
Cyber Abuse And College Students: New Risk Factors In Intimate Partner Violence, S. Elizabeth Wick
Social Work Theses - Archive
Intimate partner violence has far-ranging consequences that affect every aspect of society. While much research has been done to examine the risk factors and demographics for physical violence, realization is growing that psychological and emotional violence may also cause significant harm to its victims. New technologies such as cell phones and computers have enabled perpetrators to intimidate, isolate, and stalk their victims in new and damaging ways. Certain populations such as college students are thought to be at particular risk for the effects of this type of intimate partner violence for several reasons, including their high risk for physical violence …

Adhd And Hearing Loss: A Study Examing The Co-Occurrence Of The Two Disorders, Jennifer Amanda Sibley
Social Work Theses - Archive
This paper will present information obtained from a nationwide dataset on the incidence of co-occurring Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and hearing loss. These disorders are frequently studied separately, but there is a lack of research on the co-occurrence of the disorders. A secondary data analysis was conducted in order to answer four primary research questions: 1) What are the demographic characteristics of children who have co-occurring HL and ADHD? 2) Is the incidence of ADHD co-occurring with HL higher than the expected incidence of ADHD for this population based on general U.S. prevalence? 3) Among those with past or current …
The Prevalence Rate Of Underage Drinking Among School-Age Adolescents Receiving Social Work Intervention In A Community Mental Health Research Health Setting, Karen Abonza
Social Work Theses - Archive
Adolescents participate in underage drinking across the United States, causing significant consequences to themselves, others, communities, and the state. Underage drinking is one of the nation's leading causes of deaths in American adolescents. The current study examines the prevalence rate of underage drinking among a clinical population. The hypothesis is that peers (peer groups and peer influence) may contribute to underage drinking greater than the impact of families encouraging alcohol. An epidemiological case record review of 100 participants from the years 2012 to 2014 was conducted at the University of Texas at Arlington's Center for Clinical Social Work (CCSW) using …

Associations Among African American Parent Education, Perceptions, Behaviors, And Child Weight Status: A Cross-Sectional Data Analysis, Tracey Marie Barnett
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
Purpose: Obesity in children and adolescents is a worldwide epidemic that is anticipated to worsen over time (Budd & Volpe, 2006; Chatterjee, Blakely, & Barton, 2005; Hossain, Kawar, & El Nahas, 2007). Within the past 30 years, the prevalence of childhood obesity in the United States has more than doubled among children and quadrupled in adolescents (Ogden, Carroll, Kit, & Flegal, 2014). People often have inaccurate perceptions of their body size and weight status and this may play a key role in the prevalence of obesity especially for ethnic minorities (Gillard, Lackland, Mountfored, & Egan, 2007; Hendley, et al., 2011). …
Perceptions Of Professional And Financial Worth Among Master Of Social Work Students, Rebecca Allison Peeler
Perceptions Of Professional And Financial Worth Among Master Of Social Work Students, Rebecca Allison Peeler
Social Work Theses - Archive
The purpose of this study is to explore professional perceptions (intraprofessional, interprofessional, and societal) among UT Arlington (UTA) second-year and advanced-standing master of social work (MSW) students and investigate the connections of these perceptions to financial worth. Three focus groups were conducted with UTA MSW students (n=31) to explore this topic. The findings from this research suggest that the link between professional perceptions and financial worth is salient. Internal and external devaluation may contribute to a continued acceptance and expectation of low financial earnings. Implications for social work education policy and professional advocacy are addressed. This researcher hopes that the …
A Metatheoretical Analysis Of Social Support Theory In Application To Military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Mikayla Lynn Jacob
A Metatheoretical Analysis Of Social Support Theory In Application To Military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Mikayla Lynn Jacob
Social Work Theses - Archive
More organizations, researchers, and practitioners are now measuring social support with military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder PTSD; however, many are measuring very different specific variables under the overarching title of social support. These differences have created complications when interpreting the data. A number of different outcomes have been noted in empirical research regarding the relationship between military PTSD and social support.. This is a secondary analysis of previously published research, similar to a research synthesis. George Ritzer's (1989) metatheoretical analysis method is used. Social exchange theory and social network theory are discussed as they relate to social support theory. Three …
The Social Determinants Of Immigrant Well-Being In The United States: A Gendered Perspective, Arati Maleku
The Social Determinants Of Immigrant Well-Being In The United States: A Gendered Perspective, Arati Maleku
Social Work Dissertations - Archive
This dissertation examines the overlapping effects of structural vulnerabilities that arise from individual’s position in a society translated through gender, race, ethnicity, class, age, and marital status on the well-being of immigrants in the United States. Despite the increasing understanding of migration as a gendered process, research in this area is still limited to gender and/or women ignoring class, ethnicity, or race as relevant axes of structural disadvantage and differentiation. This empirical study addresses this lacuna in knowledge via two objectives: (1) advance a conceptual and methodological model of health and migration that integrates a gendered perspective drawing interconnections, interdependence, …

Social Work Dissertations - Archive
A significant amount of progress has been made over the past decade to reduce the impact of risky sexual behavior among adolescents; however, rates of unwanted pregnancy and contraction of sexually transmitted infections remain high. Finding ways to mitigate the consequences of risky sexual behavior continues to be a focus of many working with adolescents engaging in risky behavior. This study performed a secondary analysis of data collected during a 5-year evaluation of a teen pregnancy program targeting youth ages 17-19 who were at high risk for dropping out of high school. The goals of this study were two fold: …

Measuring Student Perception Of Ethics Instruction In Social Work Programs At The Bsw And Msw Level, Madeline P. Massey
Social Work Theses - Archive
Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) programs lack a universal method to teach ethics, and it is at the discretion of the program to determine the type of ethics education received. The purpose of this research was to determine the level of ethics instruction received by graduating students at the BSW, advanced standing (BSW and MSW), and two-year MSW level (two years of graduate education) by asking students their perspective on their ethics education. This study involved a demographics and ethical questionnaire, The Nathanson and Giffords Ethics Scale (NGES) that allowed students to report their …
