Human And Social Services Professionals’ Perception Of Service Delivery For African Immigrants, Krystal N. Jossell
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
African immigrants face various barriers when accessing and utilizing health care and social support services. The challenges associated with migration and the intersectionality of being a Black immigrant can significantly exacerbate African immigrants’ physical, mental, and social well-being. The purpose of this generic, qualitative inquiry was to explore the perceptions and experiences of human and social service providers regarding the barriers and challenges of African immigrants when accessing and using health and social services, the role of cultural competency in the quality-of-service delivery, and how both affect overall service delivery. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with seven human and …

Gender Differences In Kindergarten Students’ Internalizing And Externalizing Behaviors And The Role Of Inhibitory Control, Joy Ann Stickney-Mcdonald
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Disruptive classroom behaviors are on the rise in U.S. classrooms. Children with early behavior difficulties are at an increased risk of school dropout, incarceration, and mental illness. A review of the literature indicates gender is a significant variable that can influence students’ behaviors, social skills, and academics. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine teachers’ perceptions of gender differences in externalizing behaviors and internalizing behaviors and the role of inhibitory control in a sample of neurotypical and neurodiverse kindergarten students.

Exploring The Relationship Between Organized Sports Participation And Alcohol Experimentation In Children Aged 9 And 10, Kristina Johnson
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Children experimenting with alcohol is a phenomenon that has been occurring for decades, with the assumption that most children begin to experiment during adolescence. Research has addressed children over the age of 12 in numerous studies; however, little research has been directed at children between the ages of 9 and 10. In this study, the relationship between alcohol experimentation and sports participation was explored in children between the ages of 9 and 10 years old through a social learning theory lens. The study sample consisted of children aged 9-10 from across the country participating in the ABCD study. Many factors …

Teachers’ Perspectives Of Using Assistive Technology When Writing Individual Education Plans With Parents, Garland Keith Voss
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Teachers of children with disabilities are not providing consistent opportunities for assistive technology (AT) services, even when mandated to do so. This phenomenon contributes to children with disabilities not receiving services that help their educational growth and development. The purpose of this study was to explore perspectives of K-2 teachers of children with disabilities in a rural Western school district about using AT when writing individualized education plans (IEPs) with parents. The conceptual frameworks for this study were Piaget’s constructivism theory and Bandura’s social cognitive theory. Eleven K-2 teachers of children with disabilities participated in semistructured recorded interviews. Data were …

The Experiences Of Seeking Help For Intimate Partner Violence In Latin Lesbian Relationships, Patricia Cepero
The Experiences Of Seeking Help For Intimate Partner Violence In Latin Lesbian Relationships, Patricia Cepero
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a social and public health problem that affects millions of people each year regardless of race, ethnicity, culture, and sexual orientation. Although heterosexual IPV has been a topic of academic research, researchers have turned their attention to same-sex IPV. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals experience rates of IPV equal to or higher than rates reported by heterosexual individuals and have challenges seeking support. A qualitative case study approach was used to fill the identified gap in the literature about how Latina lesbians experience seeking support for IPV. The minority stress model provided a …

How Working Women In Healthcare Perceive Public Transportation And Safety, Assaaformbi Bama
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Women use public transportation more frequently than do men. However, most of these transportation systems were not constructed with women in mind. Public transportation systems are accountable for securely transporting people to their destinations, as well as upkeeping protective policies to advocate for fearful passengers. The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine women’s perspectives on public transportation.The research question guiding this study asked women to discuss their safety experiences and needs related to existing public transportation policy. Cooley’s theory of transportation and Friedman’s public safety theory formed the conceptual framework for this study. Purposeful sampling was used to …

Relationship Between Self-Efficacy And Reading Achievement Among Students With Disabilities, Jessica Maine
Relationship Between Self-Efficacy And Reading Achievement Among Students With Disabilities, Jessica Maine
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Students with disabilities (SWD) often display lower self-efficacy and have a more negative attitude toward reading compared to typically developing peers. Little research has been conducted to measure the relationship between reading self-efficacy and reading achievement of SWD. The purpose of this study was to investigate if reading self-efficacy predicts reading achievement for SWD. Bandura’s theory of self-efficacy guided the research question to evaluate the relationship between reading self-efficacy and reading achievement for SWD. In the present quantitative study, a linear regression analysis was used to assess the predictive relationship between SWDs’ reading self-efficacy, as measured by the Readers’ Self-Perception …
Implicit Biases And Attitudes On Decision Making Among Child Protection Workers, Demetria Turnage
Implicit Biases And Attitudes On Decision Making Among Child Protection Workers, Demetria Turnage
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Racial disproportionality remains a historical issue in child welfare systems. It was important for this research to focus on characteristics, professional qualifications, and racial attitudes of those in child welfare decision-making roles to examine how they contributed to racism. To address the gap in the literature, the relationship between years of experience, race/ethnicity, risk of harm, advocacy, racial attitudes, and decision-making among child protection were examined to develop a greater understanding of the ongoing issues and development of reforming the child welfare decision-making process to capture racism among child protection workers. Increasing equality in the child welfare system will benefit …

Factors Associated With Digestive System Cancer Screening In Texas., Stella Green
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
The specific research problem in this study was that despite the high prevalence of digestive system cancer, screening for digestive system cancer has not been optimized, thus compromising early diagnosis and treatment. Early detection and treatment of digestive system cancer can generate better patient outcomes and enhance quality of life. The purpose of this quantitative correlation study guided by the social ecological model was to examine whether demographic factors (age, sex, race/ethnicity, marital status), socioeconomic status (education level, employment status, income level), and health behaviors (physical activity, tobacco use, healthcare coverage) are associated with receiving digestive cancer screening in Texas. …
